Miss Witch is broke again.

Chapter 42 Natural Garden

"Su Li, does it still hurt?"

Undine carefully held Su Li's delicate body in her arms, raised her hand to rub Su Li's forehead, and looked very distressed.

To be honest, lying in the arms of the elven girl, with her head resting on her soft chest, and the girl's delicate fragrance lingering around her nose, while Undine was massaging the wound on her forehead with her tender fingers, she was also gently comforting Su Li.

The feeling was so comfortable that Su Li felt embarrassed and couldn't help but struggle a little.

Undine asked apologetically:

"Did I hurt you, Su Li?"

Su Li quickly shook her head and replied:

"No, no, I think I'm all better now, it doesn't hurt anymore."

Undine pulled Su Li back into her arms and said:

"Don't lie to me. Let me rub it for you first, and then I'll apply some of our special ointment from the Arlai tribe. It'll be better soon."

Su Li felt quite awkward lying in Undine's arms, but she could no longer feel the pain in her forehead. She touched her forehead and said:

"Undine, look, I'm almost completely healed!"

The elven girl thought Su Li was talking nonsense to ease her guilt, but Undine glanced at Su Li's forehead and was surprised to find that the red mark had turned into smooth, white skin.

"Huh, it's really gone!"

Undine felt somewhat relieved when she realized that Su Li was a visitor from the Demon Realm and had an unusual relationship with the Fourth Demon King.

However, after the elven girl repeatedly confirmed that Su Li still insisted that she was almost fully recovered, Undine reluctantly let go of Su Li.

Every race appreciates exquisite and beautiful things, and elves are the epitome of this. When Undine first saw Su Li, she thought she was the legendary Moon Goddess.

Holding a stunning young girl in one's arms is a pleasure in itself.

Moreover, Undine was captivated by the feeling of Su Li in her arms, because Su Li's aura was even more alluring to her, like a tree of life—vibrant, warm, and full.

Su Li's aura was even more expansive than that of the Tree of Life, as if she had reached the pinnacle of the Tree of Life's development.

Do not!

Undine still couldn't describe that feeling; it was the ultimate of the ultimate, the taste of the world!

This is the taste of hope, warm and sunny.

The Tree Realm has never had a sun; that is a memory passed down from the Mother Tree to the elves. However, the elves yearn to see the sun and are even close to breaking free from the constraints of this alternate dimension.

However, a grand ceremony attracted the Demon King.

Under the Demon King's rule, the elves were trapped in darkness day after day, unable to find the sun's light. Undine feared the Demon King, but deep within her heart, a budding yearning for hope, though faint, never disappeared.

Su Li seemed to emanate an aura of hope.

Although Undine was quite fascinated by this feeling, she eventually let go of Su Li at her insistence.

Su Li straightened up and realized that the two of them were lying next to a flower bed. Looking around, she saw that it was a natural garden composed of many trees and shrubs.

The garden was so vast that Su Li couldn't see the end of it at all.

In the distance, endless aurora borealis forms the light source of this otherworldly space. Treehouses of all sizes and colors are perched on towering tree trunks, but they refract dazzling light under the aurora.

The stream meanders through the trees and garden floor in a way that defies scientific logic, nourishing the land.

Some young elves were playing in boats on the water, while adult elves were watering crops in the garden—a beautiful and exotic garden scene.

The garden is pyramid-shaped, with the towering Tree of Life at its highest apex. The flowerbed where the two are standing is almost a step away from the Tree of Life, but a cold door blocks their way, leaving only this garden for people to explore.

The Tree of Life was surrounded by steel railings, preventing anyone from peeking in, even though it was the mother tree of the elves.

The black aura emanating from between the railings carried an ominous feeling. Su Li could recognize that it belonged to a witch, so this must be the seal left behind by the so-called Demon King.

Although one cannot enter to see the majestic Tree of Life, the Fairy Garden is still a rare and magnificent sight.

Su Li marveled at the natural elegance of the garden. Although it lacked the grandeur of the Witch's Sky Island, its exotic charm captivated her.

Seeing Su Li's amazed expression, Undine couldn't help but proudly say:

"This is Arlai's natural garden. Among the other five elven territories, only the Garden of Rings can compare to it, but now it's the only one left."

Su Li could guess from Undine's suddenly gloomy expression what the other elven territories were like now. Those witches who had descended upon the Tree Realm would not let the Tree of Life go.

Even a Tree of Life that is still developing is one of the fortuitous encounters that witches covet, as it can increase a witch's talent potential. However, this has little effect on great witches unless it is a mature Tree of Life.

However, in a normal alternate dimension, which takes tens of thousands of years from birth to collapse, the Tree of Life may not even be able to develop to maturity.

For tens of thousands of years, even the Great Witch will despair!

However, the Tree of Life evolves to its ultimate form as the World Tree, a magnificent ancient tree capable of nurturing worlds. It is a top-tier existence in the multiverse, nearly immortal.

The heart of the World Tree is recognized by witches as the most top-tier adventure, and even the fruit of the World Tree is considered one of the top-tier adventures.

The fruit of the World Tree felt very familiar to Su Li, and she was about to recall something when an invisible force that transcended fate instantly erased her memory.

Su Li felt a moment of disorientation, then continued to immerse herself in admiring the natural garden.

Only then did Su Li realize with surprise that this exquisite garden was built on a platform between the exposed roots of the Tree of Life, and the elegant treehouse was built on the ancient trees growing from those roots.

Undine couldn't help but smile, took Su Li's hand, and led her through the flowerbed, through several wooden gates and corridors.

This is the Elven royal court, but the most exquisite area is separated by railings. Now, the Elves of Arlai can only retreat to the lower city and rebuild their royal gardens.

As they walked, Su Li could see many female elves secretly watching her from among the flowers, and the elven warriors standing in the corridor would respectfully kneel down on one knee as the two passed by.

Su Li discovered that these elven warriors were all young girls.

The warriors' armor and swords were magnificent and elegant. Coupled with their graceful figures and outstanding appearances, these elven warriors seemed more like a ceremonial guard than actual warriors who could go to the battlefield.

Among the ordinary elven people on the outskirts, Su Li did not find any male elven.

Su Li couldn't help but wonder about this strange phenomenon, so she quietly asked Undine in front of her.

Undine then gave a sad and helpless smile and said:

"This is the Demon King's demand; only female elves are allowed to remain in the Natural Garden."

Su Li asked curiously:

"What about the male elves?"

The elven girl's reply made Su Li marvel once again at the witch's chaotic nature.

"Either die and become nourishment for the Mother Tree, or willingly become a female elf. There are no exceptions! And I am the only woman of the royal family, and in the end, I was the only one to inherit the throne of the Arlai Elves, so..."

Su Li didn't ask any further questions because she already knew the answer.

Perhaps Undine still deeply hates the witch, but for the sake of her tribe, she has no other choice.

Just then, the two arrived at the center of this secluded royal garden, where pale tree roots wove together to form a platform, and forked trunks formed the roof of the courtyard.

Several elven girls prepared to serve her, but were turned away by Undine.
