Chapter 587: Recognizing the Master
Chapter 587: Recognizing the Master
Ling Feng smiled, knowing she wouldn’t refuse, so he nodded and loudly said to the giant spirit root, "Wan’er is one of my most important friends, so you must not neglect her in any way, or I’ll burn you just the same!"
"Got it, you humans are really suspicious!"
The voice of the giant spirit root was filled with discontent, clearly, after being threatened time and again, it too was growing a bit impatient!
Hearing their conversation, Wang Wan’er couldn’t help but laugh silently, finding it quite interesting.
She stepped forward and reached out to touch the Spirit Seed.
She had intended to feel its texture, to marvel at the wonders of creation, but she didn’t expect that at that moment, an unexpected change would suddenly occur!
Her palm had only just touched the green Spirit Seed when she saw a soft green glow emanate from the point of contact, quickly enveloping her!
"Hmm?"
Ling Feng was taken aback, thinking danger had occurred, and was just about to step forward to rescue her when Wang Wan’er held out a hand to stop him, "Don’t come over!"
"What happened?" Ling Feng asked anxiously.
"It’s nothing, I can feel the pulsation of life!" Wang Wan’er said.
"..."
Ling Feng didn’t understand.
But knowing that something special was happening, he didn’t come any closer, his gaze locked on Wang Wan’er’s lovely face, ready to act immediately in case something went wrong!
They waited like this for ten minutes, the green luminescence slowly growing stronger, casting a greenish tinge over even Ling Feng’s face and body.
Although the color was a bit strange, Ling Feng didn’t mind at all because he suddenly had a premonition that something good was going to happen!
Sure enough, moments later, Wang Wan’er suddenly let go, took a deep breath, and the green luminescence disappeared instantly!
Ling Feng immediately stepped forward, "What happened?"
"Big Brother Ling, this tree is mine now," Wang Wan’er said, opening her palm, which now held a very small tree!
It was a projection, floating above Wang Wan’er’s palm and slowly rotating.
Ling Feng was bewildered, "What do you mean?"
"The giant spirit root has acknowledged me as its master," Wang Wan’er said.
"Wow, how did that happen!" Ling Feng’s eyes widened in surprise.
"Because the master is a natural spirit body, a reincarnation of the deity of flora," the voice of the giant spirit root came through.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng laughed. I am a descendant of Shennong, and you are a reincarnation of the deity of flora. Aren’t we practically family?
But he didn’t voice this thought aloud and only smiled, saying to Wang Wan’er, "Then that’s great, it’s a good thing I brought you here, or we wouldn’t have known about this!"
"I only found out just now, too. During my contact with the giant spirit root, I absorbed many of its memories and learned about things from a very long time ago," Wang Wan’er said with a serene smile.
In her every smile and frown, her temperament had undergone a significant change, gone was her previous timidity, replaced by calmness and composure.
Seeing this, Ling Feng was overjoyed and immediately said with a laugh, "I knew it would be something good!"
"Big Brother, through the giant spirit root, I can know all the secrets in this space. If you want to explore, you can ask me," Wang Wan’er said.
"Great, great, but there’s no rush for that. First, you should enhance your power, then we can explore later," Ling Feng said with a smile.
Wang Wan’er nodded, "Okay, then I’ll go inside the Spirit Seed now."
Having said that, she stepped forward, and the Spirit Seed automatically opened, lifting its lid.
After stepping in, Wang Wan’er lay down flat, and then said to Ling Feng, "This process might take a day and a night. If there’s anything at home, please help me look after it, Big Brother."
"Don’t worry, I’ll wait here for you to come out!" Ling Feng nodded and said.
"Mmm!"
Wang Wan’er nodded her head, and then the lid of the Spirit Seed immediately closed and slowly ascended into the canopy.
Right after that, the voice of the Giant Spirit Root came: "Big brother, there’s no need for you to stand guard here, just come back when I’m out of seclusion!"
It was Wang Wan’er’s tone, but the Giant Spirit Root’s voice, which sounded very strange to Ling Feng, so he nodded: "Understood!"
It was only after the Spirit Seed was out of sight that he turned around and left, quickly arriving outside the Nine Heavens.
Xun Qianqian and the others were still resting in the First Layer of Heaven, and Ling Feng didn’t disturb them. After greeting Li Shiyun and the others, he prepared to teleport outside.
But upon seeing a shadowy figure dodging behind the others, he stopped in his tracks and approached Feng Ling: "Are you still mad at me?"
"No."
Feng Ling’s gaze was somewhat timid as she shook her head slightly.
"Then, do you miss home?" Ling Feng continued to ask.
Feng Ling didn’t answer this time but lowered her head instead.
Seeing this, Ling Yao suddenly spoke up: "Little brother, I didn’t expect you to do such a thing. You’ve kept a good girl like Feng Ling trapped here; it’s really inappropriate!"
Ling Feng was startled and turned to look at her: "You don’t know the situation!"
"Call me sister!" Ling Yao demanded with her hands on her hips.
Ling Feng had no choice: "Sister, you don’t know the situation!"
"Of course, I know, but what does that have to do with Feng Ling? She’s neither the mastermind nor the perpetrator; why are you holding her here?" Ling Yao asked.
"I don’t want to either, but what can I do? It’s not up to me alone now!" Ling Feng said with an innocent face, shrugging his shoulders!
"You just lack responsibility, I really regret acknowledging you as my brother!" Ling Yao said irritably, rolling her eyes.
Seeing this, Ling Feng couldn’t help asking: "Then what do you think I should do?"
"Solve the problem and let Feng Ling go home!" Ling Yao said.
"Yaoyao sister, I don’t want to go home, stop it!"
Unexpectedly, Feng Ling suddenly spoke up in a soft voice.
Her words shocked everyone around, even Li Shiyun was taken aback: "Feng Ling, seeing you down these last few days, I thought you missed home. So, you don’t want to go back?"
"I don’t want to, at home, it’s not as good as here, nobody treats me as well as you all do," Feng Ling said with her head lowered.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng instantly felt more confident and said to Ling Yao: "Did you hear that, sister? Don’t blame me anymore!"
"But you were the one who captured her, weren’t you? You have to take responsibility!" Ling Yao said unyieldingly.
Ling Feng was speechless. When did Ling Yao become so fiery, and who had she learned from?
Looking around, he saw Li Fei’er with a guilty expression and couldn’t help asking: "Did you do this? What have you been teaching her?"
"I didn’t, really, I didn’t!" Li Fei’er quickly waved her hands in denial, her face in panic!
Ling Yao: "Don’t blame Fei’er. I just liked her personality, so I mimicked it a bit!"
Ling Feng: "..."
He sighed and muttered to himself: "Why learn something like that?"
"What did you say?"
Ling Yao and Li Fei’er both glared with round eyes, looking annoyed!
"Alright, alright, as if I said nothing, there’s still stuff to do outside, I’ll be off first!"
Knowing he had stirred a hornets’ nest, Ling Feng quickly turned around and left!
However, the matter of Feng Ling left a mark in his heart, realizing this issue indeed had dragged on for too long, and it was time to think of a solution. They couldn’t keep her locked up forever, could they?
