The Northern Sword God
Fishermen at Bing Jinglin Lake
Wang Yong left the Mountain Cloud Sword Sect. The next destination was the Forest Fairy Cliff. In accordance with the information he got from his mending Master Suma Chen, he only needed to walk towards the middle of the forest. Then follow the Master's instructions.
Because the journey to the depths of the Fairy Cliff Forest was taken by flying fast, then in a while Wang Yong had been on the edge of the Forest. Wang Yong continued his journey into the forest by road. It is too risky to use the airway where a lot of clues will be missed if he takes the air.
By walking through the forest to the west then according to the instructions he found a river called Xian Ge River or River of Fairy Songs. This river flows from the North of the Forest to the East.
After Wang Yong found the Xian Ge River, he also began to go along the river to the north where the source of the river came from.
The journey to the source of the river takes two days on foot. However Wang Yong carried a casual feeling when he went on a two-day walking trip.
Sometimes when traveling, he meets Magical animals who like life on the river bank such as deer and so forth. Even as he got closer to the Xian Ge river's water source, there were many natural wonders he had encountered.
For example, when down the Xian Ge river, splashes of water on the edge of the river due to the violent collision of water in the rocks, the sparks and then become something living. As this time in front of Wang Yong, the spark immediately jumped into the air and formed 10 beautiful butterflies emitting glowing colors.
“The Wonders of the Elf World are increasingly felt When approaching their world-connecting portal with the human world” while being amazed at the wonders that Wang Yong secretly feels happy. The portal connecting the human world and the elf world was not far away anymore.

In front of Wang Yong lay a vast lake. The lake was named Bing Jinglin Lake or Ice Angel Lake. There were ice fragments on the lake. The beautiful scenery was improved aesthetically with the appearance of a small boat with a fisherman who was seen fishing.
The silhouette of the fisherman who fished the fish looks beautiful under the shadow of the orange sunset. Wang Yong . It was like seeing a painting turn into reality. Wang Yong reprimanded the fisherman who looked indifferent with his fishing rod,
“Greetings sir.... In this twilight beauty, may this young me ask a question disturbing your reflection?” the words that slid from Wang Yong's lips sounded very officially full of refined manners.
Wang Yong continued by doing official stance movements with a bent position, the left leg bent backward, the right hand clenched and placed on the chest. Out of his mouth came the sentence,
“Estela heren amman seere e’ corm lle, Gilliath elen amman lle”
“May luck be with you, peace be in your heart and the stars protect you”
The man dressed as a fisherman raised his head. It seemed true that he was very surprised. Then in an instant his body disappeared from the boat. Know-how he had been in front of Wang Yong. Then with the same movement as Wang Yong, he bent his left and placed his right hand on his chest.
As per the manual Wang Yong had read from the library of the Cloud Sword Sect, a younger person had to carefully converse with an elf who was of a higher or older standing. Therefore, Wang Yong dared to open his words first.
When the fisherman raised his face and removed the dou peng (a kind of peasant hat covered in a thin sheet of cloth to disguise the face), Wang Yong became gasp.
Indeed he had seen the face of the Elf before that of Master Suma Chen. But the Master was a group of Elf nobles so naturally faced very attractive.
The sighting of the fisherman's face, actually had a very distant face Wang Yong estimated. He looked very different from the faces of fishermen in general. This man in front of him had a handsome and elegant face. It was a typical Elf face. So white, there was not the slightest trace of wrinkles on his face.
This then made Wang Yong feel difficult to guess the age of the elves in front of him.
“Tell me hi human satria. What made you come to Bing Jinlin Lake (Lake Ice Angel). Did you not know that this place is a forbidden area for humans?”
“Dan ... Where did you young men learn the manners of our Elves?”
Wang Yong was very impressed with the words the Elf said. Then he showed me a Peony Flower-shaped Token given by his master. The fisherman's elf then looked at the Peony Token as a symbol of noble strata among the Elves.
Instantly his face changed. Then he carefully asked,
“This is a token that only Elf nobles who are descendants of the Sword King.Let this old me ask, where did you get this Peony Token from?”
“So Nobles ... it has gone first. May the Stars accompany his spirit”
The fisherman's elves then hummed. The song that came out of his mouth was heard using a strange language. But that rhythm that sounds very sad. It was so sad that Wang Yong wanted to cry.
Even when the Elf was humming sadly, there were many fish and forest animals that came to gather around him.
The animals were seen shedding tears accompanied the song of sadness sung by the Elf fisherman.
Wang Yong even went agape at the sight of the incident. Indeed, as he has read in the books, the Elves are very fond of things such as creating a song, making poetry and even creating new words that are beautiful to hear.
Their behavior is always very polite and careful.
And in singing a song that they create always tucked mental strength so that it will be able to fascinate anyone who hears it.

After finishing with his sorrowful singing ritual, the Elf then asked Wang Yong again.
“So you this young knight will pass through the connecting portal of the world of Elves and Humans?”
“Do you if this portal will only open once a week? About 3 days later you can enter portal”
“This portal restriction act only once a week is done through the high ranking magic of the Elf nobility in Runya Oira City. Runya Oira is the largest city of Elves in their world”
“Some time ago there was a demon race that managed to break through the guard of this portal and take out some rare plants that cultivated us”.
“Sure after that then the entrance through this portal is limited to once a week. Initially this portal was never guarded by the Elves. But since the break-in by the demon race, back then we routinely replaced the guards at this entrance on a regular basis”
“This month is my old schedule on duty. My name is Yuan Dewei. You can call me Elder Yuan. I'm very old. That teepaut is very far compared to your young knight”
Wang Yong pondered in his heart. The elf said that he was very old, but what appeared in Wang Yong's eyes was that he looked like a 34-year-old human being no more. Oh.. don't you mess around, Elves are always looking young at a very old age.
Then the Elf Yuan Dewei invited Wang Yong to spend the night in his hut which was built on a tree. When Wang Yong entered the room for him to spend the night, the room in the tree house was very simple. There is only a bed with a wooden baking sheet that looks very old where water is washed face.
Even when the dinner was served by Elder Yuan, there was not a single piece of meat. Wang Yong who has traveled on foot so far is actually very eager to eat a lot of meat. However the dishes available are just biscuits and vegetables.
Elder Yuan then explained,
“The elves don't eat anything lifeless and bloody. Therefore meat is not included in the menu that will be served by an elf"
"If you see me fishing, it's just an activity to pass the time. Elves are not very productive. Age that is too Long makes Elves prefer to contemplate something or create new things from the results of his reflection”
“If you are in the Elf World, always remember not to hunt there. Elves are very fond of the bloodshed”
“In the meantime you can learn many things in the Elf world later from my old self this”
“When the portal door has been opened, you can enter into it. Aki will take you to the portal door in the middle of the lake it”
