Necromancer: A New Era

The night was as dark as ink. In the thick darkness, Tang Yue stood quietly. In front of him was the once noble and arrogant Natural Elf King, and the four demigod elders who exuded a powerful aura. This was a contest that seemed to have no chance of winning, but Tang Yue's eyes flashed with a strange light.

The Nature Elf King, who was once a legend in the forest and controlled the endless power of nature, now looked a little downcast. The original pride and dignity on his face had been replaced by anger and unwillingness. He stared at Tang Yue closely, as if he wanted to regain his lost dignity from this human.

Tang Yue felt the pressure from the Elf King and the four elders, but his heart was calm. He was no longer the boy who knew nothing about power. Years of experience had taught him how to find opportunities in desperate situations. He knew that the Nether Dragon beside him was the Elf King's biggest fear. The Nether Dragon had previously erupted with a strength far beyond the demigod level. Even if the Elf King and the four elders joined forces, they might not be able to resist it.

"Elf King, we are not mortal enemies." Tang Yue spoke slowly, his voice calm and firm, "What's more, I have a servant next to me that you can't match. Are you sure you want to fight me to the death?"

This was both a test and a strategy. Tang Yue was betting on whether the Elf King would choose to give in because of his fear of the Nether Dragon. He knew very well that this contest was not only a showdown of strength, but also a contest of minds.

The Elf King's expression froze. A hint of hesitation flashed across his angry eyes. He had to admit that his previous plan was easily resolved by Tang Yue, which made him feel angry and helpless. As the Elf King, he should have been the leader of the tribe, but at this moment, in front of Tang Yue and Minglong, he felt an unprecedented sense of frustration.

He looked back at the four demigod elders. They were his supporters and his trump cards. However, even if the four of them joined forces, they might not be able to defeat the combination of Tang Yue and Ming Long. The Elf King was very clear about this.

"Why don't we understand each other?" Tang Yue continued, his tone revealing a kind of sincerity, "There is no need for this between you and me."

The Elf King was silent. He was considering Tang Yue's proposal and weighing the pros and cons. He knew that if he continued to hunt Tang Yue, it would likely lead to an unforeseen disaster. Although letting Tang Yue go would make him lose face in front of his tribe, it would at least protect the safety of him and his tribe.

At this time, an elder beside him said, "My king, you must not let them leave so easily. They didn't give you face before. If you give up now, how can our clan keep its reputation?"

The elder's words made the Elf King fall into deeper contemplation. He knew that the elder was right. As the Elf King, he could not only consider his own safety, but also the face of the entire Elf Clan. However, he also knew that if he forcibly hunted down Tang Yue, the result would most likely be a lose-lose situation.

Tang Yue looked at the hesitant Elf King and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he had successfully planted the seeds of fear in the Elf King's heart. As long as the Elf King did not dare to act rashly, he would have a chance to escape from here.

Tang Yue said slowly, "You should know what is the wisest choice."

After saying this, Tang Yue looked at the Elf King calmly, waiting for his choice, because he knew that his words were enough to make the Elf King fall into deep thought. And this contest had quietly come to an end under his wisdom.

The Dark Dragon stood behind Tang Yue, his mighty and tall figure looming in the night. He did not make any sound, but the vague aura of danger lingered in the hearts of the Elf King and the four elders. They knew that this human had the confidence to be arrogant.

After a long silence, the Elf King sighed softly, like a breeze blowing through the dense forest: "You win, human. I sincerely apologize for my previous rudeness."

Tang Yue's mouth curled up slightly. He made the right bet. The Elf King really didn't dare to fight to the death. He said calmly: "Don't mind. We humans and the nature elves have been allies since ancient times."

The atmosphere around them became more relaxed, as if a tense string had finally been relaxed. The elders also felt relieved. They had been under the mountain-like pressure of the Nether Dragon, and they had been worried that they would not be able to escape unscathed.

However, the elder with the broken palm had a gloomy face, secretly plotting how to make this human pay for his blood debt with blood. At the same time, he was deeply disappointed with the Elf King's weak performance.

Tang Yue gave the Elf King a friendly smile, then turned and left, followed closely by the Dark Dragon. Tiffany looked at the Natural Elf King, and followed him out with a thoughtful look in her heart. Their figures gradually went farther and farther in the night until they disappeared. Only the Elf King and the four elders were left standing there, watching them go away.

"King, are we just going to let them leave like this?" an elder finally couldn't help but ask.

The Elf King looked at the direction where Tang Yue disappeared with a complicated look, "He is protected by an unfathomable strong man, whose strength is far beyond that of a demigod. I have experienced his strength in the previous battle. We are not sure that we can stop them. What's more, they are not our mortal enemies."

Another elder was indignant: "But, his action is undoubtedly a humiliation to our elves!"

The Elf King shook his head slightly. "We are also at fault in this matter. From now on, we need to be more cautious in dealing with humans, especially humans as cunning and resourceful as Tang Yue."

After saying this, the Elf King turned and walked towards the Elf Tribe. Although the storm had subsided, Tang Yue's name had left a deep mark in the hearts of the elves...
