Chapter 351: Two New Pillars
Chapter 351: Two New Pillars
Anger flared up inside Alice and she wanted to say something, but Arcana stopped her.
" What is..."
" Don't you understand? Try sitting on an empty seat if you can. "
Alice didn't understand, but she walked over to the empty seat to the right of Shi Tu and didn't mind sitting because it was next to Shi Tu anyway.
The rest did not seem to notice Alice's approach and remained immersed in the discussion.
Alice put her hand on the seat to pull it to sit on but unexpectedly, she couldn't move the seat.
Alice refused to admit defeat and gave all her strength, but the seat did not move at all.
Just then, a terrible pain gushed towards Alice, and she felt millions of swords piercing her, tearing her into countless shreds.
Alice felt as if those swords were messing with her feelings. With every sword piercing her, her mood changes between anger, sadness, depression, loneliness, betrayal... etc.
Within moments, Alice almost radiated all kinds of feelings causing anger countless times which would have almost completely destroyed her soul if Arcana had not pulled her away at the right moment.
" Do you understand now? "
" No! "
Alice gritted her teeth and said, " Not yet, I'll try again. "
Arcana grabbed Alice and dragged her away, " Don't bother because this seat is not yours, you won't be able to move this seat unless you are at least on the same level as its owner, Jiao Lang. "

" What do you mean? "
" Don't you see? We have no place at this round table, the two empty seats are those of Die Yingming and Jiao Lang. If we can't even sit at the same table with them, where do we have the qualifications to talk to them? "
Alice frowned and said, " You mean they didn't make seats for us on purpose? "
" No "
Arcana shook her head and said, " Don't be naive, why should they prepare any seat for you? We should get our seats ourselves! If we can't even sit at the same table with them, what are our qualifications to speak to them on the same level? "
Arcana sneered and said, " Where did your bragging go before? Do you think Shi Tu will pave the way for you? No! Shi Tu won't accept any vase. There are things we have to rely on ourselves for. "
Alice frowned and questioned Arcana's words.
Alice didn't think Arcana was kind enough to help her like that even though they were opponents.
In a situation like this, wouldn't it be better if she didn't tell her to embarrass herself while she made a better appearance in front of Shi Tu and the Nine Elders to enhance her standing?
Of course, Arcana understood what Alice was thinking.
" Do you think they are stupid and will not understand these children's tricks? "
Arcana got serious and said, " Also despite everything, we are now a family and there are red lines that should never be crossed, and one of those lines is Shi Tu's face. "
" If I allow you to show a miserable performance now, Shi Tu will lose his face in front of the Nine Elders, and this is something that can never be allowed. Do you understand? "
Alice nodded and seemed to have a new understanding of Arcana and also generated some respect for her for being able to think about the big picture at a time like this.
If Alice was in her shoes, she would use this to improve her appearance and distort the appearance of Arcana, but she realized she was wrong thanks to Arcana.
If Alice did this, Shi Tu would surely realize her goals and severely tarnish her image in his heart.
" But how do we get a seat? "
" By will! "
Arcana moved towards the right of Shi Tu between Shi Tu and the empty seat.
Arcana put her hand on the table and immediately felt intense oppression as if an invisible force was trying to throw it away. She closed her eyes and endured the pain.
A sharp pain spread through her body and soul. Despite all the pain, Arcana didn't show anything on her face and then something strange happened.
The round table seemed to have increased in size and the seats moved away a little to create space for a new seat on Shi Tu's right.
The pain disappeared and Arcana didn't say anything, just sitting quietly on her seat.
" Oh? Looks like we have a new Pillar. "
The first to welcome Arcana was Mu Xiaohong who seemed to be examining Arcana completely and unlike ordinary people, he seemed to be able to see her normally.
" Be respectful, she's our sister-in-law. "
Nalan Meng slapped Mu Xiaohong and turned to Arcana, " I'm glad we had another woman in the group. I was really lonely since I'm the only woman here. "
" I think this is our first meeting, Dark Elf Queen. "
Unlike everyone else, Song Xi's interest in Arcana seemed a bit unnatural.
" I'm not Dark Elf Queen anymore, I'm human now and my name is Arcana "
Song Xi smiled and said, " Ling Tian's body, isn't it? I helped develop it but your current body is just a flawed version, do you want me to help you get ..."
Before he could say he felt a chill in his neck as if he would die the next moment if he said more nonsense.
" Not Bing Xue? " Nalan Meng smiled and said curiously.
" This name has already lost its usefulness. "
" I love your honesty, from this moment on we are the best of two sisters "
In order, all Nine Elders welcomed Arcana and even made the best sister with Nalan Meng.
Alice cursed Arcana in her heart and lost all respect towards her.
In the end, she is still using most of her to get ahead of her and be the first to sit down, thus gaining the preference of the Nine Elders.
In fact, Arcana can't be blamed for this behavior because she was kind enough to guide Alice but she definitely wouldn't let Alice get the best results.
Just enough so Shi Tu doesn't lose his face.
Seeing that everyone's attitude toward Arcana immediately changed, Alice clenched her fist tightly and took Shi Tu's left side between Shi Tu and the empty seat.
In the same way, Alice was in excruciating pain but a crimson glow appeared in her eyes and he was finally able to sit next to Shi Tu much more easily than Arcana thanks to her current anger.
" Oh? New member? "
" Hey, isn't that the Arrogance of the Gods? " Everyone looked at Alice and asked.
" What is your relationship Zhan Xieshen and Atreus? " Yama looked very interested and asked.
" Do I know you? " Alice answered indifferently with some disgust.
" Hahahaha, nice!"
Yama did not get angry and said, " Just like your father, he always runs away from my death clutches so brazenly as if he doesn't care about death. "
Yama looked at Alice with some appreciation and said, " Sorry that I forgot myself out of enthusiasm. I'm Yama, have a long history with Zhan Xieshen since I am one of the three masters of the Law of Death and Reincarnation. That bastard always runs away from my death. "
Alice was curious about what Yama was talking about because she didn't understand what he was saying but she replied politely, " Thank you, my name is Alice, just Alice. "
'' As for the previous question, Shi Tu says that Zhan Xieshen is my father and Atreus is my older brother.''
