Even with the Queen's Personal Guard dispersing the nearby crowd, the gazes upon Yang Yu and his companions did not decrease; on the contrary, as time passed, the onlookers slowly increased.
The elves living within the forest each had a vision of 6.0, enabling them to perceive every action of Yang Yu from afar.
It was not until Yang Yu and his companions stepped onto an open stone path that the scrutinizing gazes began to abate somewhat.
In front of Yang Yu stood a towering tree which, while not as extravagant as the Tree Mother of the Plant Clan, still cloaked the blue sky with its dense foliage.
Vines hung between the branches, where countless green and gold lights, akin to fireflies, revolved around the grand tree — intermittently hiding, flashing, spreading out in clusters, and condensing into points.
Around the tree, white stone blocks inscribed with unreadable text formed a vast circular plaza, connecting to the stone path that Yang Yu and his companions had traversed.
