.
Ever since she lost her parents, Lin Yu had relied heavily on her instincts to save herself from any kind of trouble.
After being assigned to work in the soldiers' ss hall, she continually trusted her instincts to stay out of harm's way, and those instincts had saved her countless tis, far more tis than she could rember.
She wasn't sure if it was just luck or if this instinct of hers was truly so sort of ability, but she didn't care. The only thing that mattered to her was knowing she was safe.
Even on the day when the new director arrived, she felt that this person would bring nothing but trouble. Thus, she tried her best to stay away from him.
However, due to a small incident, she ended up drawing the attention of those two soldiers, who eventually bought her from the director.
At that ti, she wasn't able to make good use of her premonition. Now that she was feeling that sa instinct react to this person once again, she didn't want to stand by idly and see how things would unfold for her.
She felt that if she stayed with this person, she would be safe. So, she had to do whatever she could to make sure he took her with him.
Seeing the determined look on the elven girl's face, Ethan couldn't help but compare it to Guo Lan, the wolf girl.
Just like Bai Yu, he had taken it upon himself to train the two siblings. He vividly recalled a ti when Guo Lan told him that, once she beca stronger, she wanted to follow him on his adventures.
Honestly, he didn't care about these matters and simply told her that when he thought she was capable enough, he would let her follow him.
At that ti, he didn't even know what to make of the situation. After all, the girl was already over a century old.
In other words, she had already beco a proper adult, and a strong one at that.
At that point, all he could do was let her move forward with her life.
Once they reached the upper realm, his intention was to let the two siblings explore the world on their own.
While strength was important, experience was even more so.
Having been beaten multiple tis by Bai Yu during their sparring sessions, he understood this very well.
That being said, as he now looked at the expression on the elven girl's face, he couldn't help but associate it with the look he had seen on the wolf girl.
Shaking his head internally, he thought:
'If she were here, she would have taken in a talent like this without even asking .'
The girl already possessed a law and had a strong affinity for the wood elent.
She was like a budding seed, full of potential and ready to bloom.
All she needed was the right guidance.

To the north of the inn where Ethan resided,
in a very large hall, an enormous crimson portal appeared, and one by one, a series of individuals began to step out.
They were demon soldiers of various shapes and sizes, led by the individual at the head of the group, who was none other than their squad commander.
The relatively good appearance of the soldiers suggested that they had participated in a relatively simple mission, as apart from the various weapons stained with blood of every color, and a long line of beings resembling human like squids, chained one after the other, they had nothing else.
So of them were happy with their mission, while others kept to themselves, but overall, the mission they had participated in was relatively a success.
Waiting for this team was a demon, two and a half ters tall, with violet skin, black eyes, and not a single hair on its head.
Seeing the commander of the team approach, the demon made a half bow forward and said:
"Commander Jing, pleased to see that you have returned safe and sound," said the demon politely.
The commander in question was Jing Xia, commander of the second army of the general of this legion.
Although the armor and protective helt hid the figure of the commander, so feminine features were still visible, such as figure of her slim body or the ponytail left loose behind her helt.
The female commander directed her gaze towards the demon offering his greetings and stared at him for a few seconds without saying anything.
The demon, who had shown a confident and friendly facade, now felt an invisible pressure weighing down on him, caused more by the silence than by the commander's own aura.
Finally, after ten seconds had passed in this manner, the demon could no longer resist and slowly straightened himself while saying:
"Would you like to accompany you imdiately to the general to report, or would you prefer to do so at another ti?"
The demon knew the character of this commander, but as per procedure, certain things had to be asked.
The female commander, seeing the demon in difficulty, walked forward and passed beside him while saying:
"No, I'll go now," she said without saying anything else.
Seeing that she had gone, the demon let out a sigh while complaining internally:
'That old bastard really had to send to welco her?
Why is he torturing like this?' he thought to himself, cursing his superior who had assigned him the task of greeting Commander Jing Xia's army.
Many, just like him, tended to avoid the female commander, not because she had a bad personality or anything, but because anyone who had to deal with her ended up in these suffocating situations.
She was mostly silent, and unless absolutely necessary, she wouldn't say a word.
Dealing with her was difficult for all of them, so they always had to fight to decide who would go to receive the mission report and so on...
Everyone had tried to converse with her, with many having courted her more than once in the past, but all of them eventually gave up.
Although her appearance was attractive, her personality made it difficult for anyone to deal with her.
As the demon with the shaved head stopped complaining and went to record the mission data, the female commander headed towards the general's castle to report.
Usually, unless it was sothing extrely important, like an enemy attack, an important discovery, and things like that.
All the commanders took their ti to rest before going to report directly to the general, but Jing Xia was one of those who preferred to finish her task before taking a break.
