Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence-Chapter 516 - 9: The Stunning Aeliria and the Silken Hollow

The Iris Banner symbolizing the Bauhinia family fluttered high above the manor’s tower. Inside the brightly lit reception hall, a large number of bureaucrats from Black Forest Town, leaders of the Knight Order, and priests from various churches were all seated neatly on the right side of the long table.

Only three seats were left empty in the middle. After Su Li took the central seat with Philis, he waved to Green Dragon Aeliria and said, "What are you just standing at the door for? Come over and sit down." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Aeliria frowned, gripping her staff, a look of disbelief still on her face, "There’s a seat for me?"

"Of course, aren’t we allies now?" Su Li pointed to the seat next to Dwarf Commander Dorglin and said, "Here is your seat."

While Aeliria was contemplating whether to sit down with these humans to face a powerful Legendary Knight, the dwarf Dorglin had already started roaring irritably. His stout body slammed his arms onto the table, sending the gilded candlestick flying: "Who is this woman? I feel the evil aura of the forest on her. Isn’t she that damned crawling Green Dragon?"

"In the name of our ancestors! We dwarves have a blood feud with her! That dragon massacred hundreds of our kin, each blood debt recorded in the Book of Hatred, never to be forgotten!"

Aeliria’s Jade Staff struck the ground heavily, the Dragon’s Mighty aura causing the nearby knights’ sashes to flutter without wind: "Dine with ants?"

The emerald pendant hanging at her ear suddenly refracted golden flecks of light: "You better pray my patience lasts longer than Sulande’s sword. Dwarf, do you need me to help you remember how the molten iron, melted by dragon flame, was used to cast dwarf tombstones?"

Any alliance with dwarves was always like this; historical grudges made them never able to let go, resulting in constant rifts between alliances.

If Su Li tried to smooth things over now, the conflict would only escalate.

So suddenly, a crimson light burst from his palm, slamming down heavily on the long table made of Blood Pine Wood, creating finger-shaped indents in the raw wood as twelve crystal wall lamps emitted a near-breaking hum from the energy shock.

"Stop it! This previous battle was merely a greatly reduced re-enactment of the Battle of the Longbeards!"

"But after the Battle of the Longbeards, in the face of Chaos’ invasion, the dwarves picked up their broken Vibranium War Axes, the elves reforged their broken oak arrows, and by uniting, they repelled the Chaos together."

"Do you think Sulande Knight’s blade is more merciful than the demons’ fangs that gnaw the earth? Whatever grudges you have, deal with the Legendary Knight first before you bring them up!"

Then Su Li heavily slammed the Bauhinia family emblem onto the table, scolding: "Either let the chains of hatred drag you into the grave—or forge new legends with enemy blood."

Dorglin knew that this big friend of his rarely got angry, but once he did, no one in the territory could defy his will. So he tore open his chest armor, revealing his chest covered with monster claw marks, and laughed wildly: "After we slay Sulande’s knight, I’ll personally pluck the scales off this female lizard and drink to it!"

Aeliria sat on the long bench, her legs crossed, placing the staff horizontally across her snow-white legs, and said calmly: "Provided your scrap metal isn’t buried among the shadows of the vines."

Their conflict had just subsided when Hilude, responsible for guarding Bauhinia Manor, walked into the room and reported to Su Li: "Lord, Sulande’s guards have arrived outside the manor."

No sooner had he spoken than a chilling gust of wind, carrying a violent momentum, blew in through the main door!

Hilude’s report was abruptly interrupted by a sudden burst of sacred song, and the entire manor began to shake. The stamping of a thousand heavy cavalry horses’ hooves thundered like rolling thunder, and the shards of the crystal chandelier falling in the room were ground to powder by the golden gale pouring in from outside before they could hit the ground.

Through the twisted and deformed gilded door frame, thousands of silver rays pierced the twilight. The battle steeds of the Eternal Light Knight Order crushed the marble floor of the Bauhinia Flower Manor with their iron hooves, their pure white cloaks embroidered with the emblem of a sword and scales. The whirling snow matched their silvery demeanor perfectly, as if sent by the wrath of winter as a doomsday judgment.

The Eternal Light Knight Order made a grand entrance, giving everyone an immediate shock!
