Junzi Chen, Xu Errong, Su Fanjun and An Yu, who were walking beside An Ran, did not notice anything, because all four of them were focused on guarding against the old tree spirit's sudden mischief.

In their estimation, this ferocious old tree spirit that devoured the life of their ancestor would not suddenly become so obedient even if it was subdued by their brute force.

But until the group reached the lake, the submissive expression on the old tree spirit's face remained unchanged.

Even before Jun Zichen stopped, it humbly bent down and dropped the branches on its head into the lake. Then these drooping branches immediately grew and extended rapidly underwater, and in a moment, formed an exquisite floating leaf bridge in front of An Ran, An Yu, Jun Zichen, Su Fanjun and Xu Errong, leading directly to the phoenix tail grass in the center of the lake!

Sensing the invasion of a foreign object, the phoenix tail grass wrapped around the jade ruyi immediately tightened layer by layer vigilantly, and even the pale green color instantly turned into a strange purple!

Looking at the dazzling purple flowing in the leaf veins, even if they didn't get close to it, An Ran, Xu Errong, Jun Zichen, An Yu and Su Fanjun could smell a strong toxic scent in the air.

Su Fanjun frowned fiercely and looked at the old tree spirit suspiciously because of the phoenix tail grass's non-cooperation.

But just before he opened his mouth to ask, the old tree spirit called out "Yi Yi" attentively, and the phoenix tail grass in the lake, which had already taken an offensive posture, immediately let down its guard, shed its uncomfortable and enchanting poisonous purple color, stretched its leaf veins again in the water, and displayed the jade ruyi with divine light before the eyes of the world again.

"This old thing is really very perceptive. Has it really surrendered to the intimidation of us?" Su Fanjun sighed softly, and then immediately took off into the air before everyone else, saying to Jun Zichen, An Ran, An Yu, and Xu Errong: "I'll go get it."

Then he walked lightly on the floating bridge formed by the old wood spirit's long beard and headed towards the phoenix tail grass that no longer showed any hostility.

If An Ran had not discovered the existence of the box fragment at this time, she would definitely not be comfortable letting Su Fanjun go to the lake alone to get the jade.

Because this is the moment when the old tree spirit is most likely to betray and launch a sneak attack. God knows whether the phoenix grass in the lake, which seems to have no hostility towards everyone anymore, will make some unexpected attack on the jade seeker at the last moment?

But now that he knew about the existence of the box fragments and that there might be other treasures here, coupled with the attentive attitude of the old tree spirit along the way, An Ran naturally no longer had these concerns in his heart!

Because she understood very well what the old tree spirit was thinking at the moment. It was praying 500% that it could successfully take the jade ruyi from the phoenix tail grass, and then leave here immediately without looking at anything.

In this way, this underground secret realm will continue to be a paradise for the Qilin beast to conceal information, and no one will come to disturb it again!

"Well, go ahead, but be careful." An Yu turned his head and glanced at the old tree spirit, then said to Su Fanjun.

After a while, Su Fanjun returned to An Ran, An Yu, Xu Errong and Jun Zichen at lightning speed, holding the jade ruyi that was originally wrapped in the phoenix tail grass in the lake with a happy look on his face.

The process of obtaining the Jade Ruyi was so smooth that it was almost unbelievable. The old tree spirit did not secretly stab Su Fanjun in the back, and the phoenix tail grass did not immediately pull Su Fanjun into the water.

These spiritual plant creatures seemed to sincerely want to hand over the treasures hidden here by the Qilin mythical beast to the intruders in front of them, so they did not put any obstacles in the way and let Su Fanjun easily obtain the rare treasures in the secret realm.

Su Fanjun was very happy that he had contributed to the treasure hunt. Although he did not encounter any danger, at least he did not let others take risks. This could be considered as his contribution to everyone along the way!

Thinking about what happened along the way, Su Fanjun felt very sad. He didn't make any contribution to the team in front of his goddess!

And this time, he was able to bring the jade ruyi back safely, which greatly demonstrated his presence in front of An Ran!

So when Su Fanjun extended the jade ruyi in his hand to An Ran, there was a hint of excitement in his tone.

"Ran... Yunxi, we got it. We can leave now."

Hearing what Su Fanjun said, the old tree spirit who was standing respectfully with his hands hanging down beside him immediately nodded vigorously, as if congratulating everyone on their successful treasure acquisition. At the same time, he quickly stretched out his hand and pointed to the ceiling. Then, a spacious passage suddenly appeared in front of An Ran, An Yu, Su Fanjun, Jun Zichen and Xu Errong.

The old tree spirit means to see the guest off!

He invited these Yama Kings, who had extremely abnormal strength and wisdom, to the underworld to fight with them. Knowing that he was no match for them, he presented them with treasures and asked them to leave happily.

This should have been a natural thing, but when the old tree spirit called out and turned around with a fawning look on its face to wave goodbye to Jun Zichen, An Ran, An Yu, Su Fanjun and Xu Errong, the calm and fawning expression on its face suddenly froze!

Because, Jun Zichen didn't know when he took Xiaohuo from Anran's arms, with a mocking smile on his face, and looked at the old tree spirit indifferently without saying a word. But it made it clear to the old tree spirit that Jun Zichen and the others had already known that the old tree spirit was deceiving them.

"What are we waiting for? Let's get out quickly!" Su Fanjun shouted loudly, waving his hands as he walked towards the exit summoned by the old tree spirit.

There was no problem with the exit this time. It was wide enough for people to fly out directly. He was also very familiar with the sky revealed from the cave entrance. It was exactly the stars that they often saw in the desert at night.

It was only after Su Fanjun took a few steps forward, swinging his hands, that he felt the atmosphere behind him was a little strange. He did not hear the footsteps of An Ran, An Yu, Xu Errong, and Jun Zichen following him.

So he turned around and looked at it carefully.

Under the stares of Jun Zichen and the other four, the expression on the old tree spirit's face gradually changed from flattery to indifference...

"When did you discover it?" The old tree spirit spoke, using the standard common language of the vast continent, so clearly that everyone could understand what it meant!

"You, you, you...you can actually speak the common language of the vast continent? Weren't you just babbling before? When did you learn to speak the common language of the vast continent? Or were you just pretending to us before?" Su Fanjun said in surprise.
