Looking at the sowhat bewildered expressions of the people present, Xu Ying had to explain in detail.
The first mont Xu Ying saw the world tree on this deserted island, she knew it was an unowned world tree.
The reason she could directly teleport into the interior of the world tree was precisely because of this.
If the world tree had an owner, it would be like it was locked, and she absolutely couldn’t teleport inside at will.
The owner of the world tree holds great power.
"And now, this world tree has an owner, and that owner is you."
Xu Ying smiled and said, "Although I don’t know what thod that masked man used to make you the owner of this world tree, since this is also my first ti seeing an unowned world tree, now, you are indeed the holder of this world tree."
"You can restrict people from entering and leaving the world tree, and at the sa ti, this world tree has beco a fortress that cannot communicate with the outside world."
"Indeed, it can’t communicate," Lou Fei’Er imdiately swiped her watch, "but it seems like it couldn’t communicate in the first place, right?"
"Hmm, because we’re deep in the ocean," Xu Ying nodded, "but it does make this your private space, at least the outside world can’t eavesdrop on your conversations anymore."
"So that’s how it is..." Shi Wanyun murmured to herself, "The owner of the world tree..."
With things clarified, the three won relaxed.
"So that’s how it is... phew—finally, I can speak freely!" Lou Fei’Er let out a long breath.
"You seed to be speaking quite freely just now too," Xu Xin glanced at her.
Lou Fei’Er shrank her neck at those words.
"Well..."
She took two steps to hide behind Shi Wanyun, chuckling awkwardly, "I was just making the other party trust more, I didn’t really an it, don’t misunderstand..."
"I think you were just speaking your mind, true to character," Shi Wanyun was in a good mood and teased Lou Fei’Er a little.
Even Jin Yue couldn’t help but show a hint of a smile.
"No... no way!" Lou Fei’Er imdiately retorted, "I was just trying to increase credibility!"
"Hmph, you seem quite popular here, brother," Xu Ying glanced at Xu Xin, "clearly, in that ti and space, you were loyal to only your wife."
"I’m still loyal now, okay," Xu Xin said with so exasperation.
"Hmm? You’ve never had anything with these three?" Xu Ying glanced at Xu Xin again, "Are you up to it, brother?"
No matter what he does, it’s wrong, isn’t it?
"If he wanted to, I think the three of us probably wouldn’t refuse, right?" Shi Wanyun slightly smiled, speaking words that were sowhat exciting in her gentle voice.
Neither Lou Fei’Er nor Jin Yue refuted.
"So you really can’t, huh? Satisfied with just his wife, is it..."
"Alright, stop talking nonsense, how can you talk to your brother like this, no respect at all!" Xu Xin hurriedly interrupted her and gave her a light smack on the head, "We still have many things we haven’t finished yet."
"I’m already over three hundred years old..." Xu Ying grumbled while holding her head, then turned to Shi Wanyun, "This world tree should be a gift from that masked man to you, the reason being, probably as Jin Yue just ntioned."
"Just because I was personally sent by that monster?" Since they couldn’t be monitored now, Shi Wanyun resud referring to that half-human, half-ghost guy in this way.
"Don’t underestimate that. You had close contact with their ’divine being,’ and they are extrely fanatical believers.
For them, you are soone personally sent by their ’divine being’ to carry out a mission, and if placed in the context of Western mythology, you’d probably be called an ’Angel’? In our words, you’d be... the imperial envoy sent by the emperor? Hmm, about that."
"Ah, that brings the level of prestige up quite a bit."
Lou Fei’Er laughed.
"No wonder that masked man was so patient with us, answering whatever I asked without any airs, and even when he left, after letting us take the pills, he didn’t leave any harsh words, it turns out it was all because of Shi Wanyun."
"... Is that monster actually so useful?" Shi Wanyun glanced around, then shook her head, "But he was clever, using a world tree that is basically useless as a gift."
If they didn’t have that world tree over there before, this world tree might still be of so use.
But now, it really is basically useless.
However, if they didn’t have that world tree, that masked man wouldn’t have co to find them, nor would he have given this world tree to Shi Wanyun.
"Speaking of which..." Xu Ying turned to look at Xu Xin, "Brother, earlier, could you read the voice of that masked man’s heart?"
Xu Xin shook his head.
"No. I couldn’t read it."
When the masked man stood still, Xu Xin tried reading his heart’s voice, but he couldn’t.
"Couldn’t read it..." Xu Ying frowned, "It shouldn’t be, judging by his words, he should be one of the survivors from before, could it be because of the mask?"
"If he’s a subordinate of that monster, maybe he traveled through ti?" Xu Xin speculated, "Weren’t those survivors brought to this ti period by them? Soone must have needed to go back to the past to bring them to the present."
