When they reached the deepest part of the forest, they finally saw the legendary divine tree.
The trunk reached into the clouds, and the lush leaves covered the sky like a big umbrella.
Among the dense leaves were some small white flowers.
Huanhuan looked up at the divine tree in front of her and couldn’t help but sigh. “What a big tree!”
The divine tree suddenly moved. It extended a branch and brought a small white flower to her. It let out a low voice that was filled with vicissitudes.
!!
“For you.”
Huanhuan froze.
This tree could actually speak?!
And it gave her a flower?!
At the side, Xue Hui quickly urged, “What are you waiting for? This is a gift from the divine tree. Hurry up and accept it.”
Huanhuan quickly reached out and picked the little white flower. “Thank you.”
The branch of the divine tree gently touched the top of her head as if it was an elder stroking the head of a junior. It was filled with affection and care.
Unwilling to be left out, the lotus extended its flower and touched the branch of the divine tree.
The divine tree chuckled and touched the petals of the lotus. Then, it took out a round fruit and placed it in front of the lotus.
The lotus opened its petals and swallowed the fruit.
This fruit seemed to be very useful to it. The lotus grew several pale pink petals. When it put the petals away, the small bud became round and cute.
Holding onto the principle of sharing good things with her good brothers, the lotus turned around and shouted at the mountain tiger, “Little Green, come out!”
Little Green popped its head out. It seemed to be a little reserved. Its vines were tightly wrapped around the lotus. It carefully greeted the divine tree. “Hello.”
The divine tree touched its vines and took out a fruit for it.
Little Green wrapped the fruit with its vines, but it didn’t eat it. Instead, it handed the fruit to Huanhuan.
“Here, Mistress.”
Seeing its actions, the lotus immediately regretted it. If it had known earlier, it wouldn’t have been in such a hurry to swallow the fruit. It should have given the fruit to its mother first.
Huanhuan picked up the fruit and looked at it. It was pale yellow and looked a little like an apricot. It also smelled faintly of it.
She returned the fruit to Little Green. “Eat it.”
After getting its mistress’ permission, Little Green immediately opened its mouth and swallowed the fruit.
In just a moment, poisonous thorns grew on the surface of the vines.
Its strength had increased, and it happily went to take credit for it from Huanhuan. The vines reached out to the back of Huanhuan’s hand, wanting to rub against her.
Huanhuan quickly dodged its vines. “You’re covered in thorns now. You can’t rub against me as casually as before.”
With so many poisonous thorns, a layer of flesh on the back of her hand would definitely be scraped off.
Little Green, who tried to wheedle but was rejected, felt like the sky was about to collapse. The leaves on the vines hung down. Mistress didn’t love it anymore. Boohoo!
Huanhuan quickly touched its leaves. “If you want to rub against me in the future, just use your leaves. Don’t use your vines. I’ll get hurt.”
Little Green, which had been stroked, immediately became happy again. It rubbed its leaves against her fingertips and nodded happily. “Okay!”
Huanhuan looked up at the divine tree in front of her. “Thank you for the fruits.”
Little Lotus and Little Green thanked the tree together.
The divine tree said, “You’re all good children.”
Although it had no face, Huanhuan could still feel that the divine tree was definitely smiling.
Xue Hui warned, “It’s getting late. We should go in.”
Huanhuan slowly tucked the little white flower into the collar of her shirt.
She took back the lotus and Little Green. Xue Ling picked her up and continued walking inside. She turned her head and waved at the divine tree. “Goodbye!”
The leaves of the divine tree swayed gently and rustled as if in response to her goodbye.
For some reason, Huanhuan felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this divine tree, especially when it approached her. Not only did she not reject it at all, but she also couldn’t help but feel close to it.
She felt as though it was a kind and reliable elder.
As they walked, Xue Hui introduced, “The divine tree was originally a sword tree. It used to be friends with the Divine Wood. Later, the Divine Wood withered and the sword tree fell into a deep sleep. However, it still protects this forest, so we call it the divine tree.”
Huanhuan seemed to have understood something. It turned out that the divine tree and the Divine Wood were old acquaintances. No wonder she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with it.
Xue Ling said half-jokingly, “Just now, I saw that the divine tree was having fun with Huanhuan and the others. It didn’t look like it was sleeping.”
“It’s a long story. In short, the divine tree was awakened not long ago. We still don’t know who woke it up.” Xue Hui sighed deeply. “If we can find that person, our Divine Wood clan might be reborn.”
Huanhuan was puzzled. “Reborn? What does that mean?”
“Nothing.” Not wanting to get into this, Xue Hui quickly changed the subject and continued to introduce them to the various characteristics of the forest.
A handsome young man suddenly hung down from the tree. He grinned and made a big face at Huanhuan.
Caught off guard, Huanhuan was shocked.
Xue Ling protected Huanhuan with one hand while his other hand turned into a claw that grabbed at the other party!
The young man quickly dodged. His movements were very light.
He said with a cheeky smile, “I was just joking. Don’t take it so seriously!”
Xue Hui slapped the back of his head and scolded him angrily, “Huanhuan is timid. Don’t scare her.”
The young man covered his head and felt especially aggrieved. “The high priest said that you brought guests. I specially came to pick you up. But instead of thanking me, you hit me. You’re too much!”
Ignoring his accusation, Xue Hui said coldly, “Lead the way.”
The young man seemed to be quite afraid of her. He muttered something under his breath, then obediently ran to lead the way.
Seeing that it was an acquaintance, Xue Ling retracted his claws.
Xue Hui turned around and said to Huanhuan, “He’s called Ah Gui. He’s one of us. He’s very naughty and likes to tease people. When you see him in the future, remember to stay away from him so that you won’t be bullied by him again.”
Huanhuan replied, “Okay.”
Ah Gui had sharp ears. When he heard what Xue Hui said, he shouted unhappily, “How did I bully her? I was joking with her because she’s cute. If it were any other beast, I wouldn’t have bothered with them.”
Xue Hui exposed him bluntly. “Come on, don’t make excuses. You just think she’s stupid and easy to bully.”
Huanhuan looked at her eagerly. “Am I stupid?”
Xue Hui was calm. “You look cute when you’re stupid.”
Huanhuan: “…”
She was not comforted at all. What should she do?
Not long after, they heard Ah Gui call out, “We’re here!”
Sunlight streamed down from above, clearing the world.
