"Oh!" A sigh came, and a tall middle-aged wooden spirit slowly walked over, with deep melancholy and heavy on his face.

"Uncle Aoki!" Fei Yan and Qingzhu shouted at the same time.

Aoki moved forward to help He Lin up and said, "Young clan leader, don't make things difficult for your benefactor. The benefactor said nothing wrong. Now you are just a child. What you should do most is to rely on us to grow up safely. After you grow up, try to make us dependent and repay our benefactor's life-saving grace. If you force your benefactor, not only will our whole tribe members worry, but will also bring great burdens and disasters to your benefactor."

He Lin was stunned for a while, and finally stood up obediently, wiped away his tears, and apologized to Yun Che: "Brother Yun Che, I'm sorry, it's me... too willful and too selfish. You saved my life, but I... but I..."

Yun Che shook his head, sighed heavily in his heart, and said, "Helin, what is your sister's name?"

"Ah?" He Lin was a little stunned.

"In the future, I should have traveled through many places in the divine world. If fate favors me, I might meet your sister. In that way, I can tell her where you are, or bring her here to reunite you siblings."

"Ah!" He Lin's eyes lit up suddenly, and then they trembled excitedly: "Brother Yun Che, my... sister's name is He Ling...He Ling!"

Aoki's face also showed a little excitement.

"Then... what does she look like? Are there any characteristics that are different from other wood spirits?" Yun Che asked, and at the same time he wrote down the name "He Ling" firmly... He was definitely not asking casually to comfort He Lin. His begging and tears made him unable to let him down.

"Sister is the most beautiful Mu Ling, the most beautiful sister in the world. She is more beautiful than all the flowers and the stars and moons in the sky!" He Lin shouted without hesitation.

"..." Yun Che nodded and gave He Lin a promised look.

"Thank you, my benefactor. I really don't know how to thank you." Aoki felt touched and said gratefully from the bottom of his heart.

As he spoke, he carefully held up with his hands. The palm was a beautiful spirit bead the size of a longan and released the emerald green light.

Wooden Spirit Pearl!!

"This is..." Yun Che's heart suddenly felt turbulent.

"This is the wooden spirit bead left by the deceased wife back then. Although it has been many years, fortunately the spiritual energy is still intact."

Putting the wooden spirit bead carefully on Yun Che's hand, Qingmu's gaze appeared in a moment, as if a piece of soul was cut off, and then he immediately showed a gentle smile: "I hope you can use it well."

"Thank you very much." Yun Che put away the wooden spirit bead with complete spiritual power and said heavily.

After a brief hesitation, Yun Che said, "Men Aoki, I have a doubt, I don't know if I should ask."

"Please speak with my benefactor." Aoki smiled.

Yun Che looked around the small world and said, "The situation of your Wood Spirit clan is unrestrained. However, as far as I know, in the God Realm...at least in the East God Realm, hunting Wood Spirit is a violation of humanity and is strictly prohibited. This ban is still under the unity of the other three king realms of the universe and the world. Once it is known to the King Realm, it will be extremely severely punished. Since that is the case, why don't you try to seek protection from the King Realm over the years? Instead, you are separated in the lower astral realm far away from the King Realm, making it difficult for them to reach?"

When Yun Che finished these words, he found that Aoki's eyes were in a violent turmoil, and then he sighed deeply.

"We have tried." Aoki said: "But, human greed and evil are as terrible as their strength and status."

Yun Che suddenly looked up and said in surprise: "What do you mean, is it..."

"Do you know how our patriarch died?" Aoki closed his eyes, his hands shaking slightly.

"..." Yun Che did not make a rash guess.

"At that time, although the kingdom had issued a ban, the disasters that our Mu Ling suffered never ended. So, many years ago, our clan began to think of seeking the protection of the kingdom, even if he became their slaves... at least he could give peace to future generations without having to live in panic and escape forever."

"Later, after going through a lot of hardships and countless hardships, the clan leader finally got closer to one of the kingdoms. The clan leader thought he was approaching hope, but unexpectedly, a disaster suddenly came... In that disaster, the clan leader, the clan leader's wife, and thousands of clan members were killed. Their desperate struggle was able to make the young clan leader and the princess escape... Finally, the sky was not completely blind. We found the young clan leader, and the clan members who fought to protect the young clan leader escaped also withered to the point of only three... One of them was my deceased wife."

"And His Highness and the tribe who protected her were separated during the escape. Now he doesn't know where to live, even life and death..."

"Who were those people back then?" Yun Che asked.

"..." Aoki took a deep breath: "I... received the soul sound from the clan leader's life, only four words."

"Brah... Emperor... God... Realm."

"What---?" Yun Che's hair stood up in an instant.

The leader of the four king realms of the East God Realm, it is rumored that the whole world is fascinated by the mysterious way. There are no weak people and never interfere with the external disputes!?!?

Aoki smiled bitterly: "As human beings, I know you can't believe it. And the truth of our entire clan is only three people. The young clan leader doesn't know, and His Royal Highness, who doesn't know where to live, doesn't know - he can only pray that she will never try to seek protection from the kingdom or any astral realm."

"Then why... why did you tell me?" Yun Che's heart was ups and downs. He knew why he didn't dare to tell other Mu Lings, because it would only cause them to fall into endless sorrow and despair.

Qingmu looked at him deeply: "Although I am not a human, I understand that at your age, you can rescue the young patriarch from a place like Heiya City. Your Xuandao cultivation must be a top-notch existence among the same humans as you are. Since you can reach this level, you will definitely be obsessed with the mysterious Tao. For those who are obsessed with Xuandao, the supreme existence of Xuandao in the kingdom will be as sacred as the heavens. With your achievements, you may be qualified to contact the kingdom in the future."

Yun Che: "..."

Aoki continued: "I don't expect you to believe my words, but I hope you can at least leave a reminder in your heart...even if you feel a little bit of war. I don't want to see that a kind human being like you, but you have to look up and trust a group of dirty souls."

"..." Yun Che was speechless for a long time. Although he never thought that he would come into contact with the supreme existence of the East God Realm one day, Aoki's words... he believed it, but it was indeed difficult to accept.

However, thinking about the four holy places that the Tianxuan Continent have been admired by generations, the turmoil in his heart has eased a lot.

"Will they also need the Wood Spirit Pearl in their plane?" Yun Che said softly as if he was talking to himself.

"No, what they want is the royal wooden spirit beads on the head of the clan." Aoki said: "But before the clan leader died, he completely destroyed the wooden spirit beads with his last strength, and did not let those evil people succeed."

Aoki looked sideways and looked at He Lin not far away: "Fortunately, they don't know the existence of the young patriarch and His Highness the Princess, otherwise..."

Yun Che's heart suddenly stumbled.

He Lin is a royal Mu Ling, and this has been exposed to the Heiyu Chamber of Commerce, and everyone present has seen it with their own eyes.

However, anyone will know that the news that the royal family wood spirit still exists is enough to sensation the entire divine world and will also bring in huge troubles and disasters. Therefore, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce is eager to take action secretly, and those present will not be idiots to leak and cause trouble.

Wait... the upper astral realm mentioned by Ji Ruyan...

Huh! I can only hope that this matter will not be known to more people, especially the realm of the Brahma Emperor.

——————————————

I have been staying in this small world that belongs to Wood Spirit for nearly an hour and a half. Now that the Wood Spirit Pearl has been obtained, it is time for him to leave.

When you arrive at the place you enter, the blue and black vines at the exit will automatically open, showing a narrow passage.

Behind him, a group of wood spirits were sent to him, especially He Lin, whose eyes were red.

"Young man, a wooden spirit bead is far from enough to repay your great kindness. If you don't dislike it, bring this with you. In times of crisis, it may save your life."

Grandma Qingye handed the three small jade bottles to Yun Che.

"This is?"

"This is the unique [Mu Ling Shen Lu] of our clan. It comes from the origin of the ancestor of the Wood Ling clan. It contains magical natural power. As long as you drink it, you can heal trauma and restore power in a very short time. This is the last three drops we have. I hope it will be helpful to your future life."

Although I don’t know how the recovery effect is, what comes from the Spring of Origin is not an ordinary thing. Yun Che did not refuse, and accepted it with gratitude. He focused his attention on the wood spirits and wanted to turn around and leave.

"Brother Yun Che!"

The girl's voice came from afar. Although she was anxious, she was still as ethereal as the wind blew the quiet water.

Yun Che stopped. In his and all the Wood Spirit's surprised gazes, the Wood Spirit girl Qinghe came to Yun Che with Qingwu's colorful clothes. Her face turned red, her eyes were full, and her slightly raised chest was graceful with her rapid breathing.

"Qinghe, I'm leaving." Yun Che smiled.

"Brother Yun Che..." Qinghe raised her hands, and in her white palm was a bracelet stringed with seeds of various flowers. At the end, a small emerald green gem was tied: "This is... this is the amulet I made with my own hands, it... it can bless Brother Yun Che..."

"..." It seemed like a clear stream flowing through the depths of my heart. Yun Che moved forward and took the bracelet with both hands. He smelled the breath of flowers and plants. Obviously, this was the seed just picked, and it was also the bracelet just made. The crystal was small and green, but it had a touch of the fragrance of a girl... This was the secretion of the breath that it had fortunately attached to the girl's skin for a long time.

"Thank you Qinghe, I will cherish it." Yun Che said sincerely in looking at the girl's eyes.

"..." Yun Che's words made the Mu Ling girl lower her head. She bit her lip lightly, then bravely raised her head, and said softly: "Brother Yun Che, will you... often come to see us in the future?"

"Yes." Yun Che nodded heavily... Her eyes, whispers, and the beautiful and flawless heart of the girl. Even the most stalwart person in the world would not have the heart to refuse or let him down.

——————————

After leaving the secret place of the wood spirit, the passage behind him disappeared with the cover of the blue and black vines. He turned around and looked at it without any trace.

Obviously, not only is there a vine covering, but there is also a special natural illusion array here that can interfere with the vision and spiritual awareness of living beings.

If you just pass by, it is basically impossible to notice it. But Yun Che could still sense some strangeness with all his strength.

If the realm is sufficient, you don’t need to concentrate your mind and explore it, and you may notice it... This should be why, the Wood Spirit Clan basically hides in the lower astral realm.

"After all, it's not a long-term place." Yun Che said to himself: "I hope this place will never be discovered."
