Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

Chapter 207: I am coming with you Part1

Once the Empress left the chamber, Tang Yue returned back to the Crown’s quarters in the royal palace.

She broke the dwarf disguise and reverted back to her serpentine human form for now in order to not arouse any suspicions.

Even though the Empress said that this was a royal secret, she doubted how safely this particular secret would be guarded.

They already intended to kill her off, so why would they bother hiding this news?

Tang Yue sat down on her bed silently for several hours as she gazed at the orchids in the courtyard.

She didn’t move or say anything. She silently gazed at the beautiful purple orchids swaying in the gentle wind.

They had no other choice but to sway in the direction of the wind. If they dared to stand against the wind, they would only get uprooted and wilt.

As Tang Yue silently sat contemplating various things in her mind, Lotte as well stood next to her, waiting for her orders.

He was extremely worried. He had hoped that the rumors were false and that there would be some good news but didn’t seem to be the case.

After a while,  Tang Yue wordlessly stood up and started throwing in several things into her space pearl.

This was not her home after all, so it didn’t take her long to collect her things and pack everything that she needed.

Tang Yue hadn’t mentioned anything, but Hinata herself had prepared huge portions of roasted meat of different beasts and had brought it to her.

They were all things she had previously eaten, but Tang Yue appreciated the kindness and the sentiment in the gesture and accepted it with a smile.

Though Hinata was not with her as long as Lotte had been, she still had come to like her humble and kind attitude very much and was greatly disheartened to see her subjected to such unfair treatment.

Watching Hinata bidding goodbye to the Princess, Lotte’s already red eyes glistened again, and a couple of loud sobs escaped the elf’s whimpering lips.

“You fool. Stop crying so much. It’s not like I am being executed.” Tang Yue chuckled sarcastically.

To others, she was merely being exiled back to the serpentine clan for the time being.

But in reality, she was heading to her grave…

However, it was not necessary to tell Lotte that.

“Make sure to come to visit me when you get a chance.” She smiled lightly and prepared to leave.

Little Blue followed her innocently, not knowing what was happening.

And just like that, in a matter of minutes, Tang Yue was ready to leave the palace.

There was no farewell. There was no pomp and show. It felt appropriate to her that she was leaving just as silently as she had come here.

As she reached near the main door, Tang Yue couldn’t help but stop at the entrance of the Crown’s quarters and turn around to look at the man’s chamber.

Was he in there? Does he know that I am leaving? She paused for a few minutes.

Heh. She then chuckled.

Of course, he knew. How could everything happen without his consent?

She shook her head disappointedly and then continued to walk out. Somehow everything felt anti-climatic.

She never expected him to care about her, let alone show any concern for her, but she also couldn’t forget the warmth and kindness she saw on his clone’s face when he was trying to rescue her from the glow worm.

She had then heard about how the man had personally rescued her and brought her back to the royal palace.

Even though she didn’t expect anything from him in the first place, all these things had unknowingly shaken her emotions a bit.

So it was slightly unsettling to know that the man hadn’t cared about her at all from the very beginning.

Now that she thought about it… The man might have simply carried her to the palace and treated her so that he could search for any traces of any treasures.

It was rather foolish of her to attach any other meaning to that action.

Tang Yue chuckled and put the ridiculous thoughts in her brain away.

She didn’t rely on him before and she did not plan to rely on him now.

So what if these people are sending her to her death?

She, Tang Yue, was not someone who went down so easily.

She might lose out in the end, but she sure was going to put up a good fight.

The elves might not realize it but she had a plan of her own. 

They might have sent her on this mission to kill her but little did they know that she had indeed planned for the exact same thing to happen.

The Tang Yue who was leaving now was never going to return. She was going to fake her own death and thereby giving everyone what they wanted.

“We will see who wins this game.” The snake chuckled and headed out. 

As usual, she plopped the space pearl in her mouth and switched to her serpentine form, slithering through the palace grounds at high speed, but she didn’t entirely leave the royal palace.

She slithered to a corner of the palace and directly dove straight into one of the small holes on the ground in the palace gardens.

She then used the small tunnels underground and slithered away further and further from the palace grounds.

With her newly upgraded hardened scales, she found it very easy to burrow from one end of Eldoria to the deep interiors of the eastern forests.

She reached there unexpectedly very fast.

If she was the one hell-bent on killing someone else, she wouldn’t wait a lot to finish off her target.

So Tang Yue assumed that the elves who wanted her dead most probably had men prepared to follow her as soon as she left the palace.

So she had taken this additional step to ensure her safety.

Tang Yue was unsure if what she had done was enough to catch off guard the numerous tails which she expected to be on her, but this was all she got.

Ultimately, everything depended on the disguise rune crystal.
