"Are you sure that you want to do this, Your Highness? Don't you think we are a little too hasty? Uncle Jorn queried with doubts and concern, but from his voice to his aura, it was filled with power.
Evidently, Uncle Jorn had also significantly benefited from the bloodline awakening.
If Uncle Jorn had to face another Mid-rank 2 Transcendent like Lord Balzacs again, he would not be afraid even if he was alone.
Nevertheless, this did not an that they could underestimate the Desolate Netherbird Second Prince's forces.
"Now is the best ti for the clan to grow. If we wait until Prince Leon returns, we will stand a better chance, Your Highness," Uncle Jorn ntioned shortly after.
Lilith gazed at the group of Transcendents gathering in front of her with a solemn look before she said with knitted brows, "We can't keep relying on Prince Leon's help. The debt of gratitude we owe him has already reached an insurmountable amount—so great that we cannot possibly hope to repay."
"If it has already reached such a point, what does it matter if we add a little more to our debt, Your Highness?" Uncle Jorn said.
Lilith frowned.
She gazed at Uncle Jorn gravely before saying, "Uncle Jorn, there's a difference between needing soone's help and using them. And right now, you sound no different to the latter. Do not take advantage of Leon's extensive kindness, Uncle Jorn."
"Between the importance of the clan and Prince Leon, it seems Your Highness has chosen latter," Uncle Jorn smiled wryly and said teasingly, "It seems like our Little Princess has finally found soone she likes."
Whistle~!
The gathered warriors at the Transcendent level all whistled at Lilith before one of them shouted heartily, "I definitely ship them!"
" too! I ship!"
"Prince Leon and the Little Princess is a perfect match!"
The warriors cheered one after another in acknowledgnt of the pairing, causing Lilith's face to quickly flush with embarrassnt.
"Silence all of you! Don't speak nonsense!" Lilith hollered angrily and reprimanded them, "Prince Leon already has several won by his side! What the hell are you all thinking?"
"Since Prince Leon already has several won by his side, it shouldn't be a problem to add one more, right?" A warrior laughed cheerily with a grin.
"If the Little Princess and Prince Leon gets together, we have no doubts that you will be able to lead the clan to greatness and usher into the golden age of prosperity!" another warrior chid.
"All great n are destined to have multiple wives in their lifeti because all have great hearts to accept them all. Only small n will small hearts will stay loyal to one—not because they are faithful but because they are incapable of handling anymore."
Shortly after the warrior spoke, he imdiately received mixed responses from his fellow comrades. So agreed with him, while others outright cursed him.
"Oi, oi! I only have one wife! What are you trying to say, huh? That I am a small man with a small heart? I have been through thick and thin with two other won who always had back. Our bond is as strong are blood siblings. But, unfortunately, they developed feelings, and I resisted the temptation. If I wanted, I could easily have three wives by now, you know?!"
"And that's why you are a small man with a small heart, like a kept man, too afraid of your wife's wrath to reciprocate the feelings of others who also share a destiny and possible future with you. I wouldn't say much if these were peaceful tis, but it's not. You just cut them off like weeds. What a heartless man you are."
"Hmph, what do you know? I rather wrong a thousand won than wrong my wife!" the warrior snapped.
"Enough!" Lilith suddenly shouted.
The discussion within the crowd quickly died down before the warriors shift their attentions back to their little princess.
Lilith gazed at them solemnly and said, "We are not gathered here today to be talking about this. We are gathered here today to prepare to launch a counterattack on the Desolate Netherbird Second Prince's city and free our people, the Clan Leader, my mother, and the elders!"
"I am not avoiding Prince Leon's help because I stubbornly want to avoid incurring more debts of gratitude to our savior! No, there is a more important reason for this hasty endeavor!"
"While it is true that if we continue to bide our ti to grow and wait for Prince Leon's return, we will stand a better chance in this operation. But let ask you all this, you too, Uncle Jorn! We can wait, but can they wait?!"
Once Lilith raised the question with explosive volu and power granted by her cultivation, the warriors quickly received a great shock of surprise and alarm.
So of the captured elders were their grandfathers, grandmothers, fathers, mothers, uncles, or even aunties. Either way, the elders were all related to them in so way.
They were all family.
"The Little Princess is right! The Desolate Netherbird Second Prince is unruly and depraved. God knows how he is treating the Clan Leaders and elders in captivity?"
"Right! Now that we possess the strength, we should rescue them before it is too late! We don't have ti to consider the possibility of absolute success! These are our elders' lives on the line!"
Lilith swept the spirited group a glance before she nodded, "Seems like this is everyone. Check your equipnt and supplies. In half an hour, we will set out at once!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Shortly after the warriors busied themselves with their preparations, Uncle Jorn smiled wryly and said, "It seems that I have not considered this problem. The days of oppression have made more conservative."
"It seems like the Little Princess is a natural-born leader. You are already fit to lead the clan, Your Highness," Uncle Jorn added.
However, such words did not make Lilith happy.
She shook her head and said, "I am not as great as you think, Uncle Jorn. I did not want to save my father, mother, and the elders are being treated because I considered the Desolate Netherbird Second Prince's nature, nor act in the capacity of a leader."
"It's nothing noble like that… I am simply worried for my parents and wanted to save them because I am their daughter."
