Chapter 489 - Training Silver

"There you are, baby sister!" Princess Thessalia strolled over excitedly and gave Princess Faelyn a warm hug before asking, "Have you seen what happened to Father?"

Shortly after speaking, Princess Thessalia realized the blunder in her words. Of course, her little sister would have already known about their father's death.

Seeing Faelyn behaving so indifferent to her usual teasing, Princess Thessalia figured her baby sister was in grief and said, "Err, don't be too sad about father's death, little sister. We still have Mother, Eldest Brother, Second Eldest Sister, and Fourth Sister."

"Fourth Eldest Sister has been missing for years. Whether she is alive or dead, no one even knows anymore. As for Mother, Eldest Brother, and Second Eldest Sister, they are all dead. It's just us left, Third Eldest Sister." Princess Faelyn said impassively, but sorrow could be seen in her eyes.

Princess Thessalia immediately trembled with shock before quickly denying, "Baby Sister, that's not something you should joke about!"

"I'm not joking!" Princess Faelyn spat with an angered expression before adding, "You will know once you see what happened inside the Heart of Spring Chamber!"

Princess Thessalia was greatly startled by her little sister raising her voice at her for the first time before she quickly said, "Wait here for me. I will go take a look!"

Without waiting for Faelyn's response, she immediately stormed towards the vine staircase leading down to the Heart of Spring Chamber.

"Move aside!" She barked.

"Y-yes, Your Highness!"

The royal guards barring the Third Princess's path to the Heart of Spring Chamber quickly scurried out of the way after she made her demand.

Shortly after Princess Thessalia went down to the vine staircase and disappeared from sight, General Paeris began to approach Princess Faelyn.

"Is it true that Queen Radelia, the crown prince, and the second princess have all passed away?" He asked.

Princess Faelyn gazed at him before she coldly said, "Do you think I will also joke about my family's lives?"

"My apologies, Your Highness! That was not my intention!" General Paeris immediately dropped down to one knee in apology.

At the same time, he was pressured by the Fifth Princess's gaze!

This pressure did not just come from the difference between their statuses, but also their cultivation!

The Elf General found much to his shock that during the short period he had not seen the Fifth Princess, she had already surpassed him in cultivation!

They were both 9-Stars Ranked Awakeners, but even 9-Stars Ranked Awakeners had their differences—no matter how slight the differences are.

"Never mind." Princess Faelyn furrowed her thin brows and said, "Tell me what has happened in the tribe during the time I was inside the Heart of Spring Chamber."

"Ahem, I am not exactly sure, to be honest." General Paeris coughed, feeling embarrassed for being unable to answer the Fifth Princess's question before he added, "We have been waiting here, hoping to meet… meet Queen Radelia…"

Princess Faelyn's expression became more deeply furrowed before she sternly said, "Instead of wasting your time here, don't you think you could have been doing something else while the tribe is still under threat?"

"My apologies, Your Highness. I have no excuses," General Paeris lowered his head in shame.

At the same time, the Elf General was surprised deep within his heart. The Fifth Princess was no longer the same amiable and easy-going person he remembered.

Nevertheless, the change was understandable.

"Go report yourself to the Supreme Elder. See what he has for you to do." Princess Faelyn stated coolly.

The Elf General quickly complied, "Understood, Your Highness. I will leave at once!"

Shortly after General Paeris left, Princess Faelyn turned towards the royal guards and said with a slight frown, "You all go report yourselves to the Supreme Elder too. There is no longer a need to guard this place. The tribe will be relocating to the Human Domain."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Shortly after the royal guards left, Princess Faelyn also left the courtyard to meet the Supreme Elder—but not before giving the idle Elders a silent look.

"We should also go see what plans the Supreme Elder has for the tribe." One of the Elders said wryly before receiving the nods of agreement from the other Elders, "Right… Let us go."

The Elders soon departed from the courtyard.

…

Meanwhile, Leon continued to teach the three-tailed silver wolf how to use the Hundred Beast Transformation Art.

At the same time, the three-tailed silver wolf began to embark on a new road of cultivation to become a spirit beast—or possibly even a divine beast in the future.

Thus, even if Silver cannot redevelop its intelligence naturally, the Divine Cultivation method for beasts will develop it either way.

"Sit! Rollover! Bark twice!"

"Arf, arf!"

Silver responded according to Leon's commands while wagging its tails, thinking they were playing a game.

Alas, somewhere in the middle of teaching the Hundred Beast Transformation Art, it had changed to training Silver how to listen to commands.

"Ahem," Leon coughed after realizing he had erred.

Nevertheless, the three-tailed silver wolf was no longer clueless like it was before.

It had achieved some success in practicing the Hundred Beast Transformation Art after swallowing one of Leon's smaller supreme-grade spirit stones.

Leon gazed at the big silver wolf and barked, "Silver, shrink!"

"Arf, arf!" The three-tailed silver wolf responded and began to used the Spirit Energy in its body to shrink its body.

However, it suddenly fell on its side with a bang after shrinking only its legs and whimpered, "Awroo…"

"Stop playing around, Silver." Leon admonished it.

"Awroo!" The three-tailed silver wolf responded with complaint, feeling wronged as it struggled to get back up with its dangling little legs.

Leon glanced at Silver's small legs speechlessly before he said, "Don't just shrink your legs! Shrink the rest of your body too!"

"Arf, arf!"

After struggling for some time, Silver finally managed to reduce its huge build down to the size of a standard elephant.

However, this was not just a mere reduction in size, but the compaction of its cells, fortifying its entire body.

As Leon patted Sliver's toughened skin, he could tell its defensive strength has been raised by threefold, equating to roughly 200-thousand jin.
