"Princess’s father investigated in secret and found that the Barbarian Tribe has an ancient text that records so peculiar thods, like reviving the dead, but only the king is qualified to read it. He said Sangji must be trying to resurrect Honglian." Muyu shook his head as he spoke, "I didn’t believe it then; if it really could bring the dead back to life, wouldn’t the kings of the past have revived many people? Princess said the conditions must be very strict, possibly requiring a huge sacrifice, it definitely can’t be that simple."
"Later, her father even found so clues, suspecting Sangji hid Sangta, so they helped escape back to report. I originally wanted to send a ssage to you through the Comrce Association, but since it’s a Barbarian Tribe matter, it’s not appropriate for people inside the Comrce Association to know. Besides, I traveled day and night, so it probably won’t be much slower than the Comrce Association."
After finishing, Muyu made a bitter face, "Madam, I’m still hungry, can I eat a little more, please?"
Bai Ruozhu’s mouth twitched; she shouldn’t have believed this joker could be serious and earnest, look at how important this matter is, yet he’s still thinking about eating!
She pushed the food over impatiently, "Don’t eat too much, or you’ll suffer from stomach pain."
"Uh-huh." Muyu quickly stuffed himself with a couple of mouthfuls of rice, then bit into a chicken leg.
Jiang Yichun turned his head away, wondering how he ended up with such a silly subordinate.
"I can’t let this go; I must return to the Barbarian Tribe. If Sangta was really captured by Sangji, we can’t just let Sangji act recklessly." Bai Ruozhu ignored Muyu and said to Jiang Yichun.
"But..." Jiang Yichun frowned.
Bai Ruozhu sighed, "I know Bengbeng and Tiaotiao are still young, and going to the Barbarian Tribe now is really unsuitable, but I can’t feel at ease. Back then, the tribesn sacrificed so many lives to save you all, treating as the person they trusted most. Yet I escaped from the responsibility of being queen, irresponsibly letting Sangji, who returned after many years, govern them again, plunging the Tribe into danger."
Thinking about those vibrant lives, her voice choked up a bit, "The Barbarian Clan’s Secret thods are inherently bizarre, Sangta killed a thousand people just to curse you. If Sangji wants to revive Honglian, it might also require the blood of innocent citizens, then what?"
Jiang Yichun tightly pursed his lips, he remained silent and didn’t object.
Muyu quickly finished gnawing on the chicken leg, speaking with his mouth full, "Madam, you’re right, you gotta co up with a plan, I promised Princess and her father, if we don’t intervene, they’ll be in danger."
He lowered his voice significantly, "Princess is still waiting for to go back and marry her, finally got my hands on a bride."
Bai Ruozhu was feeling sowhat heavy-hearted, but faced with this joker, she almost felt like laughing, her mood lifted a bit.
The two asked Muyu so more questions, then let him go to rest.
Jiang Yichun wanted to have a good discussion with Bai Ruozhu but was interrupted as Jing Lei reported that the emperor urgently summoned Jiang Yichun to the Palace.
"Ruozhu, don’t act impulsively, wait for to co back and we will discuss it properly." Jiang Yichun said.
Bai Ruozhu nodded, "Don’t worry, I’m not a child."
"Yes, you’re the mother of three children." He said with a smile and left with Jing Lei, but Bai Ruozhu sighed, knowing he was reminding her not to neglect the children.
She was reluctant to leave her three precious ones, although she had been depressed and angry for a long ti because Bengbeng and Tiaotiao are boys, but they are her flesh and blood, how could she not love them? How could she bear to leave them when they’re so young?
Yet she can’t just watch the Barbarian Tribe people fall into bloodshed again; what should she do?
In her turmoil, she simply retreated into the Space. Xiaohei ca over, rubbed against her leg, and bit her clothes excitedly, pulling her forward.
"What’s up? Found soplace fun?" Bai Ruozhu laughed as she stroked its head and followed it into the newly erged Forest.
The Forest had so not-so-tall trees, as they haven’t blood or borne fruit, she couldn’t tell if they were fruit trees.
At this mont, a rabbit burst out, and before Bai Ruozhu could react, Xiaohei dashed over and bit the wild rabbit.
It proudly showed Bai Ruozhu its trophy. Before she could stop it, Xiaohei had already killed the gray rabbit...
Bai Ruozhu was stunned; the rabbit had just appeared. What if it’s so mystical creature born from Space? Xiaohei killed it so wastefully?
Despite her unwillingness to bla Xiaohei, it was inherently a fierce Beast Pet, hunting was its nature. Being cooped up in Space had wronged it enough.
However, before she continued to feel heartache, she suddenly discovered a very short small tree in the middle of the Forest, and Bai Ruozhu felt a very peculiar sensation rise within her.
Neglecting the fragrant-eating Xiaohei, she walked step by step towards the small tree.
She reached out to touch the leaves, but suddenly felt her hand pulled back by a light.
The little tree had begun to glow!
Bai Ruozhu’s mind imdiately conjured the image of the money tree, was this a money tree?
The tree’s radiance was delicate, like moonlight, gradually revealing a phantom on the tree that left Bai Ruozhu staring.
After a while, the phantom slowly beca clear, transforming into the shape of a pheasant, and before Bai Ruozhu could think more, the shadow fluttered and landed, transforming into a living, breathing pheasant!
This tree grows animals? The logic is too bizarre, isn’t it?
But that pheasant clearly sprang from the tree, could the rabbit have been grown from the tree as well?
By now Xiaohei had finished the wild rabbit and obediently lay by Bai Ruozhu’s feet.
Due to the Black Stone’s influence, she was telepathically connected with Xiaohei, and Xiaohei knew it shouldn’t have eaten the rabbit, so it was acting the part of the obedient dog now.
"Xiaohei, don’t move!" Bai Ruozhu said as she held its head, noticing so changes in Xiaohei.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on her face; Xiaohei’s body had a faint essence, and this was just from eating that rabbit from the small tree?
"Xiaohei, keep a close watch on this tree; don’t let anyone touch it." Bai Ruozhu seriously instructed Xiaohei, who obediently nodded to show that it would certainly follow its owner’s command.
Bai Ruozhu observed for a while longer, but the tree didn’t glow again, indicating its radiance probably had intervals, and Xiaohei didn’t go near the pheasant again, perhaps because the animals born from the small tree contained essence, making it easily satiated, Xiaohei wouldn’t need to eat other things for a while.
With this, will her Space gain more animals?
And what effect would consuming these small tree-born animals have?
Thinking of this, she rushed over, grabbing the foolish pheasant, quickly killing it and making it into beggar’s chicken.
After Bai Ruozhu ate half of the beggar’s chicken, she vaguely felt her internal essence increase slightly.
