"No, we wood spirits always know how to repay kindness, let alone such a great kindness."
Granny Qingye is the oldest person here and seems to be the one with the highest say. She said sincerely: "Young man, if you have any requests, please feel free to make them and we will do our best to repay you."
"No need." Yun Che shook his head: "I saved him not out of my original intention at all, because my original purpose was to obtain a Wood Spirit Pearl."
"Wha...what?" Yun Che's words made all the wood spirits suddenly raise their heads and their expressions changed slightly.
"I spared He Lin because he was a child and I couldn't bear it. If it had been any other wood spirit, I would have taken his life and the wood spirit beads by force. So, you don't have to be grateful to me."
Seeing the sudden change in the expressions of the wood spirits, he turned around and walked towards the exit neatly.
"Wait." An old voice called him.
Yun Che paused, but did not look back. He said calmly: "Don't worry, I won't tell others about this place."
"No," Granny Qingye walked towards him with her waist half bent: "You saved Lin'er and are a great benefactor to our entire clan. How could we not trust you? You just said that you need a wood spirit bead.
Is it right?"
Yun Che was stunned and turned around.
Granny Qingye smiled peacefully and looked at the middle-aged wood spirit next to He Lin with slightly turbid eyes: "Qingmu, Qiuling's wood spirit bead, give it to our benefactor, how about it?"
The eyes of the middle-aged wood spirit who was replaced by "Aoki" showed complicated turbulence, but he did not hesitate or be embarrassed. He nodded gently: "Of course."
"That's great." Granny Qingye laughed: "Young man, there happens to be a wood spirit bead in our clan. It was left behind by Qingmu's wife when she was seriously injured and died. Although it has been
It has been many years, but since it is sealed in the natural profound formation, there will be no loss of spiritual power, so it should be able to help you."
If the wood spirit takes the initiative to keep it, and if the spiritual energy is not damaged... it clearly means that this is a 100% spiritual power, and it is a perfect wood spirit bead that is impossible for humans to obtain through force!!
Yun Che was excited: "Really...can you give it to me?"
"Haha," Qingmu laughed: "Even if I risk my life for the Wood Spirit Bead left by my late wife, I will not let it be taken away by evil people. But if I can repay the great benefactor who saved our young patriarch, Qiuling, her spirit in heaven,
I will definitely agree happily."
"It's just that in order to prevent it from being obtained by evil people, I sealed it extremely tightly. It will take at least an hour or two to unlock the natural profound formation that sealed it. During this period, people from Lao En will have to wait here for a long time."
Yun Che spent a huge price, but in the end he did not take He Lin's Wood Spirit Bead by force...but here, he received a perfect Wood Spirit Bead as a gift.
Although it cannot be compared with He Lin's Royal Wood Spirit Bead, the 100% spiritual power is already far more than the 70% spiritual power Wood Spirit Bead that Yun Che needs.
The last depression in Yun Che's heart was swept away, and deep joy and gratitude surged in his heart: "So... thank you so much. I really need a Wood Spirit Bead urgently for an important reason."
"There is no need to thank you. We can't repay you for your great kindness." Granny Aoba said, "Aoki, go ahead and hand it over to the benefactor directly after you get it."
Aoki responded and flew away.
"That's great! I just can't let go of my big brother!" He Lin cheered and came to Yun Che with great joy, pulling up his sleeves: "Brother, let me show you how our home is. Although
It’s small here, but you’ll love it.”
He Lin pulled him and officially entered this small world that only belonged to the wood spirit.
Green trees serve as houses and flowers and plants serve as mats. This is an incredibly pure world, with not even the slightest trace of filth in the air.
They were originally a race protected by nature, but due to human greed, they became more miserable and withered than any other race. They should have a deep hatred for humans, but He Lin pulled him in front of one wood spirit after another.
When he introduced him happily, the other party showed him deep gratitude and heartfelt welcome, maybe a little wary, but from beginning to end, he did not feel even a trace of hatred.
The wood spirit has the purest power and the purest heart in the world. Yun Che felt this deeply at this time, and his heart was throbbing strongly.
Even if he is an enemy a hundred times more powerful than him, his gaze will never flinch, but the clear and dust-free emerald green eyes of these wood spirits make him dare not look directly at them again and again...
Such a clan should have received the most extreme protection from nature, but why did they suffer such a cruel and unfair fate...
Because of human sin and greed...
Also because of their weakness.
The bodies of the dragon clan are all rare treasures, but who in this world dares to bully the true dragon clan of the Dragon God Realm.
"Sister Qinghe!"
He Lin pulled Yun Che all the way to the end of the small world. Here was a large flower garden. At a glance, hundreds of flowers were blooming in a variety of colors. A girl in colorful clothes was collecting the morning dew on the petals in the flower garden, her light figure was like
The colorful butterflies dancing among thousands of flowers are pleasing to the eye and enchanting to the soul.
Amidst He Lin's shouts, the girl turned around from the flower bed and looked at them with soft eyes. He Lin's cheeks were red and she introduced to Yun Che: "This is Sister Qing He, and her father is Uncle Qingmu.
.Sister Qinghe, he is the big brother who saved me. Although he is a big brother, he is super powerful."
The girl in colorful clothes looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. Her fair face carried the youthful charm of a girl and the pure beauty unique to wood spirits. She gave a gentle salute to Yun Che: "Thank you, big brother, for saving our young patriarch's big brother."
kindness."
After saying this, she did not dare to look into Yun Che's eyes anymore, lowered her head, and a slight blush spread over her face.
"Hey? Young patriarch, it turns out you brought your benefactor brother here, no wonder he can't be found anywhere!"
Behind the ears, a girl's voice was as clear and lively as a clear spring. A girl about the same age as Qing He flew over lightly, followed by a young Mu Ling who was about seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and slender, with a flawless appearance.
.
"Sister Feiyan, brother Qingzhu!" He Lin called out their names crisply.
The two arrived and looked at Yun Che with gleaming eyes for a long time. The wood spirit boy named Qingzhu bowed to Yun Che: "Brother, my benefactor, you saved our young clan leader. I don't even know... how to repay you."
good."
"Thank you, my benefactor, brother." The wood spirit girl Fei Yan bowed her head, her clear and beautiful eyes looking at Yun Che over and over again in curiosity: "Among human beings, there are indeed many good people."
"Of course." He Lin said with great force: "My parents often told me this when they were still alive. The first time I saw my eldest brother, I believed that he must be a very good person."
"Hmph! Young patriarch, you have the nerve to say that!" Feiyan raised his hand, knocked He Lin's forehead hard, and said angrily: "Do you know that you almost scared us all to death! Qing
Grandma Ye cried several times, you...if you dare to do this again in the future, we will ignore you."
He Lin covered his forehead in pain, not daring to refute, and said weakly and pitifully: "Sister Feiyan, I already know that I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again. I just... I just really want to go out and see what's going on outside."
The world, I never thought it would be so unlucky... Wow, I really don't dare anymore."
"Feiyan, don't talk about the young patriarch like that, he will definitely behave in the future." Qing He spoke softly in defense. As he spoke, he glanced at Yun Che quietly and quickly lowered his head.
"Hmph, anyway, I will keep a close eye on the young patriarch from now on!" Feiyan puffed up his cheeks.
However, Qingzhu asked with uncontrollable curiosity: "Young patriarch, what happened after you sneaked out that day? And what is the outside world like? Is there really Qingye?
Is it so magical as what my mother-in-law and Uncle Qingmu said? Please tell us."
"This..." He Lin said anxiously: "I was caught shortly after I ran out. After that... I was always scared after that. How could I care about other things. Ah! That's right!"
He Lin's eyes suddenly flashed and he turned to Yun Che: "Brother, can you tell us about the outside world?"
He Lin's words immediately reminded them that Qing He, Fei Yan, and Qing Zhu all focused their expectant eyes on Yun Che...the first outside human to come to their small world: "Brother benefactor, you must
You know a lot about the outside world, and we want to hear it, really want to hear it.”
The four pairs of emerald green eyes flashed with the same expectation and desire. And such eyes made Yun Che's heart and soul suddenly prick, as if being stabbed by needles. They had spent their entire lives on the run, fearful and cautious,
Only in their own little world can they feel at ease. Every place in the outside world may be an abyss of death for them.
How longing and longing they have in their hearts, how cruel the fate they have endured.
Yun Che took a deep breath and said slowly: "Actually, my home is not in the God Realm, but in the lower realm that is very far away and remote... The first place I visited after coming to the God Realm was
An endless snow-white world. The earth, rivers, seas, mountains and rivers are all covered by ice and snow that will never melt. Even the sky is as white as if it is covered with snow... The palaces there are dozens of miles in length.
So long, the largest one is hundreds of miles long..."
Without mentioning any specific names, Yun Che talked about the world he came from, the white world of the Snow Song Realm and the magical Netherfrost Heavenly Lake, the boundless flame purgatory of the Flame God Realm... and also mentioned the flames.
Those two terrifying and cunning ancient horned dragons...
The four wood spirit boys and girls listened in ecstasy and exclaimed again and again.
Just listening and then describing it in the mind can't really understand what kind of picture or scene it is, but even so, this is an unprecedented spiritual excitement for them who are always "imprisoned" in the small world.
"Thousands of miles... tens of thousands of miles... it's all a white world." Feiyan raised his head, his eyes blurred, and then said in despair: "I have never seen snow in my life."
"Me too." Qingzhu nodded in agreement, fascinated.
Yun Che smiled slightly and suddenly flew up. A blue light flashed in his hand, and a large piece of falling snow fell from the sky like a feather, accompanied by a refreshing breeze.
"Wow!"
Excited exclamations overlapped. They held up their hands and bathed in the falling snow. They felt as cold as ever, as if they were suddenly in a completely different world.
The snow fell lightly at first, but soon turned into a blizzard. Yun Che's fingers changed slightly, and immediately, more than a dozen ice crystal lotus flowers bloomed in the snow. The smallest one could be held in the palm of the hand, and the largest one made two wood spirit girls.
People are vying to sit in it and feel the blooming of the ice lotus in person.
call!
Outside the flying snow, a pale golden flame ignited, and soon condensed into a huge golden crow flame, and emitted a loud and powerful roar.
"What a beautiful firebird!" He Lin exclaimed softly.
"This is the Golden Crow. In ancient times, it was one of the strongest fire beasts."
Yun Che's thoughts moved slightly, and immediately, the image condensed by the flames quickly changed, turning into the appearance of the ancient horned dragon in the God Burial Fire Prison.
"This is the flaming horned dragon I just told you about. Its whole body is covered with fire, and its tail is longer than its body. Well, it's about the same size." Yun Che introduced it and sighed: "I
I almost died under its claws."
"It looks so scary. You can tell at a glance that it must be a very bad mysterious beast." Feiyan's cheeks bulged slightly, as if he was venting his dissatisfaction with it for almost killing Yun Che.
After snow, ice, and fire, Yun Che performed thunder and lightning and Xuangang again. He kept playing with them for a long time, and then he closed his hands and let all the wind, snow, thunder and fire dissipate.
Everything is like a sudden bubble.
Under the unprecedented excitement, the cheeks of the four Wood Spirit men and women were flushed. There seemed to be bright stars shining in their eyes when looking at Yun Che - just now, they were full of gratitude and curiosity towards Yun Che, but now,
It was a worship that was so strong that it covered everything at once.
"I really want to... I really want to visit the place my benefactor brother mentioned." Qingzhu raised his head and talked like he was dreaming.
"There will definitely be a day." Yun Che said.
"Brother benefactor... um! Can we..." Feiyan's eyes were earnest, but his face was full of nervousness: "Can I know your name?"
He Lin, Qing He, and Qing Zhu also looked at him.
Yun Che smiled slightly and said without hesitation: "My name is Yun Che."
"Yun Che..." They whispered the name at the same time.
"Brother Yun Che!" Qingzhu shouted excitedly.
"You, you, you... you stupid guy, you are trying to get in front of me again! I also want to call... brother Yun Che!" Feiyan shouted, her eyes curved into delicate crescents, and then she pulled Qing He beside her:
"Sister Qinghe, you don't talk much today. Come and call brother Yun Che."
Qinghe took a small step forward, but never raised his head. He pinched the colorful belt nervously with both hands and whispered timidly: "Yun Che...brother..."
"Qinghe, what's wrong with you?" Qinghe's unusual appearance made Qingzhu worry: "You look like... ah? Why is your face a little red? Are you sick?"
"Ah! I know!" Feiyan exclaimed sweetly: "Sister Qinghe must have fallen in love with brother Yun Che!"
"I...I don't have one!" The faint morning glow turned into a gorgeous sunset glow in an instant, spreading straight to her jade-colored neck. She lowered her head lower, then suddenly stomped her feet and turned around like a frightened butterfly.
Run away...I didn't dare to look at Yun Che from the beginning to the end.
"Wow haha! I was right!" Feiyan laughed proudly, and then stared straight at Yun Che with a pair of bright eyes: "Brother Yun Che, Qing He was even shamed and ran away, you have to be responsible!"
"This..." Yun Che pressed his nose in distress.
Wood spirits possess the purest power of nature, so women are polite and pleasant, and men are extremely handsome, but they also lack masculinity. For wood spirit girls who are used to seeing male wood spirits,
The masculinity in Yun Che's body, as well as the sharpness and sharpness honed by countless winds and rains, once he gets closer and becomes curious, the attraction generated is often fatal.
He Lin didn't smile. He had been looking at Yun Che blankly since before he announced his name, and the corners of his mouth were slowly biting together, getting tighter and tighter.
When Yun Che noticed something strange about him, he suddenly knelt down heavily in front of Yun Che.
"Ah? Young patriarch!" Feiyan and Qingzhu were startled.
"He Lin, you?" Yun Che quickly stretched out his hand to help him up.
He Lin knelt there stubbornly, looking up with slightly trembling eyes: "I...I don't want to call you brother Yun Che, I...I...I want to call you master."
Yun Che: "..."
"Master! Can you please be my master? I want to become as strong as you...I...I will work hard, I can endure hardship, no matter how hard it is, I can do it. Please accept me, Master."
He Lin was not begging, but pleading...pleading with too much desire.
"He Lin." Yun Che put his palm on his young shoulder: "You are a wood spirit, and I am a human. Although we are similar, our powers are different, so I cannot be your master."
"No! Master can teach me, and we can use mystical energy in the same way as humans. This is what my parents told me personally." He Lin said resolutely: "Because, my parents are so powerful. They have defeated them.
There are many, many powerful villains who have protected countless people. I want to be as powerful as Master, and I want to protect my people like my parents. I... I will listen to Master, and I can do anything for Master. Please accept it, Master.
I,"
"..." Yun Che knelt down, his eyes showing the softness that he could only see in front of his relatives: "He Lin, a person's power is limited after all. Even if you become ten times stronger than me, you will still be weak.
It is impossible to change the fate of the Wood Spirit Clan, but it depends on the joint efforts of the entire clan."
"You are the young patriarch of the Wood Spirit Tribe, but don't forget that you are still a child, and you don't need to bear such heavy pressure on your shoulders. What you should do most is to stay in peace and quiet under the protection of your tribe.
Heart, grow up in peace, and when you grow up, use your mature wings to protect your people, okay?"
"I...I know..." Two traces of tears slowly slid down He Lin's cheeks: "I know that even if I become strong, it is impossible to change the fate of our entire family, but...that way, I can at least have
I left here one day to find my sister and protect my sister... I promised my parents that I would protect my sister, but... But I can't find my sister. I don't know where she is. Is she being bullied by bad people?
...I miss her so much...I really want to find her, I really want to protect my sister from being bullied again...but...but..."
Yun Che's hand pressing on He Lin's shoulder tightened slightly, unable to speak.
When he and He Lin were the same age, he was ridiculed and sneered at because of his disabled Xuanmai. However, he had Xiao Lie's meticulous care and protection, Xiao Lingxi's constant companionship, and Xia Yuanba
You can laugh and play, you can go where you want and do what you want. You have no idea what escape and fear are, let alone shouldering the heavy responsibility of a race.
Compared with his peers, he can be said to be pitiful with his disabled Xuanmai.
But compared to He Lin, he was undoubtedly in heaven at that time.
