Thanks to the friendly performance of Greedy Wolf Taoist, today's farce has co to a conclusion.
Li Jue and Zhang Ze kept everything well under wraps, so those who ca to assist were mostly unaware of the truth.
They all thought today's goal was to capture Greedy Wolf Taoist.
Especially after Elder Han ca forward to detail the cris of Greedy Wolf Taoist, everyone felt that this figure surely justified today's commotion.
On Zhang Ze's side, after everyone had their say, the matter of pursuing responsibility was dropped.
Because everyone realized that with things turning out this way, no one was blaless. If any of the four had spoken up earlier, things wouldn't have ended this way.
As for the task of supporting Yu Dong, it turned into an insignificant matter.
Everyone here is one of us, so whatever story they tell to explain things to the Five Rams later doesn't really matter.
It's all fake anyway, everything depends on Zhang Ze's story.
Xia Yan took up the task whole-heartedly, as she was currently very enthusiastic about weaving stories, just bursting with ideas.
With minor matters settled, it was ti for the main business.
Interrogating Greedy Wolf Taoist.
Elder Han was very curious about how Greedy Wolf Taoist had survived.
The Beast Taming Sect's operation to capture him years ago was quite the spectacle; he should have been dead for sure.
But now, not only is he alive, he's turned into this ghost infant-like creature, with grass growing from his head, which is truly bizarre.
"You all co take a look too, I've lived in the Dragon Palace for a long ti; there are things I might not recognize,"
Saying this, Elder Han placed the water globe on the table, within which a shadow of an octopus climbed around, firmly suppressing the ghost infant form of Greedy Wolf Taoist.
"I don't recognize it, haven't seen it before." Li Jue shook his head promptly.
"What kind of plant is growing on him?" Li Yueqi picked up the water globe from the table, examined it a bit but without any clues, and handed it to Xia Yan.
Xia Yan, being from dicine King Valley and a direct disciple of the Valley Master, had much wider knowledge of herbs and spirit plants than the others.
But she couldn't make sense of it either.
While there are shape-shifting herbs, none she had heard about from her master or read about in books appeared like this.
"This thing isn't a Nascent Soul, nor is it an evil entity like a Flesh Spirit; it is indeed a plant, but I cannot discern its type..."
"Who's ever heard of soone possessing a plant?" Xia Yan shook her head.
The water globe was handed to Zhang Ze.
Though he didn't recognize it either, being so close, he sensed a familiar aura from the ghost infant.
Primordial.
Before he could call out, a small voice erged from beneath the table.
"I recognize it, it's edible."
It wasn't Li who was still shepherding cattle at the Beast Taming Sect, but Little Fuji.
Through so unknown ans, she slipped in from outside the water curtain, which Elder Han didn't notice at all.
Fuji didn't care about the surprised glances, flew up from beneath the table, stood on the table, and waved at Zhang Ze to set the little globe down.
Little Fuji circled the globe, tapping her chin, studying it for a while, then suddenly pressed her face against the water globe.
Just like how she sneaked past the water curtain effortlessly, the supposedly impenetrable water globe was nothing to her.
Half of Fuji's body was now inside the water globe.
She then took a bite of the sprout on top of the ghost infant in front of everyone.
The scene was sowhat eerie, but due to Little Fuji's adorably food-appreciative expression, it turned into...
Even more eerie.
In short, it was really strange.
Everyone watched Little Fuji quietly, especially Xia Yan and Elder Han.
If it weren't inappropriate and impolite, they really wanted to study Fuji.
In Fuji, they saw characteristics of spirit plants, demon beasts, the demon race, and the aquatic race...
In short, it was truly remarkable.
After Little Fuji was satisfied, she pulled her head out of the water globe with a pop.
"What do you think?" Zhang Ze asked.
Little Fuji looked at Zhang Ze, and gave a thumbs-up.
"Sweet!"
The crowd, "..."
Zhang Ze sighed, feeling he had indeed overthought it.
He shouldn't have relied on Fuji, especially a small version like this.
This small version of intelligence might be slightly reduced...
Fuji ca from the Primordial tis. Although she didn't lack mory, she lacked education and experience.
From when she was able to crawl until she joined the Sword Sect, Fuji had been doing two things.
In the first half of her life, she lay on the seabed passing the days, eating whatever the currents brought.
In the second half, after the ocean dried up, she started digging.
Hence, she had a self-contained way of understanding many things, and this understanding was quite unshakable.
Fuji actually lacked taste, for if she reverted to her original form, she wouldn't even have a mouth, or rather, her whole body was a mouth...
Her transformation was different from normal people; in Zhang Ze's view, it was more like mimicry.
Therefore, things Fuji said were often taphors.
Using ways others understood, she expressed her feelings.
In Fuji's cryptic expressions, 'sweet' ant sothing she had eaten that was very tasty while digging underground in the past.
As for what it was, Fuji had no clue.
"Is this thing useless now? Can I eat it!"
Little Fuji blinked her big eyes, saying sothing very evil cultivator-like, very ghostly.
Zhang Ze suspected Fuji sneaked in just to scrounge.
Pinching her tuft of hair and dragging her aside, Zhang Ze thought it would be best to rely on Li for this eating matter.
