Seeing that Wang Zheng was acting crazy again, Chu Tianxing decided not to argue with him anymore.
He grabbed him by the back of the neck, shot him into the air, and disappeared in an instant.
Soon, the deserted wasteland returned to silence. A gentle breeze blew by, and countless branches rustled, creating a tranquil and peaceful scene.
The abandoned giant tree became even more lifeless.
"Sigh, it seems he really isn't coming back."
At this moment, two figures suddenly appeared in the previously empty sky. Who else could it be but Wang Zheng and Chu Tianxing?
It turns out that the scene of leaving was all a hoax suggested by Wang Zheng on the way back.
He always felt that the sapling wouldn't easily give up this base, because recreating such an environment wouldn't be something that could be done overnight.
So Wang Zheng wanted to trick it, but he didn't expect that he would miscalculate this time. It seemed that the sapling had not returned at all.
Wang Zheng said to Chu Tianxing with a bitter face, "Let's go, let's go, there's no chance anymore."
The two then landed directly on the ground and soon disappeared into the depths of the forest.
Another hour passed.
"Damn it, I just don't believe it!"
"Principal, please keep an eye on the surroundings. I'll burn this broken tree down. Since we're not coming back, then none of us should have an easy time!"
Wang Zheng emerged from the shadows, cursing and swearing, as he took a can of gasoline from his storage space and prepared to pour it around the large tree.
Chu Tianxing quickly stopped Wang Zheng and whispered a few words in his ear before persuading him to stop. In the end, Wang Zheng could only leave indignantly.
After Wang Zheng and Chu Tianxing actually left.
Just tens of meters below their feet, a small, golden sapling lay in the spacious underground space in a very human-like manner.
The entire underground space was completely enveloped by the ancient roots of the giant tree. Although the spiritual energy inside the underground space was abundant and even swirling with mist, the withered tree roots seemed to have the effect of blocking the spread of spiritual energy, and not a trace of energy leaked out from the outside.
Then look at the golden sapling, which is lying comfortably in the space between the tree roots.
Two crystal-clear tendrils at the base were lazily intertwined, swaying gently and occasionally twitching, showing that it was very comfortable.
Its two branches, one on each side, occasionally and gently touch the trunk as if tickling it, while the other rests lightly on the thick roots of the giant tree, as if sensing the movement on the ground through the withered tree.
As if it could see Wang Zheng's exasperated appearance, the trunk of the golden tree began to tremble, making a crisp "shushing" sound in the silent underground space, and rippling with tangible spiritual energy.
Judging from its smug and human-like appearance, it seems to be mocking Wang Zheng and Chu Tianxing for not finding it!
————
Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.
Chu Tianxing and Wang Zheng, who had just left the giant tree space, were flying into the distance in the sky.
At this moment, Wang Zheng's expression had completely changed from his previous furious outburst. Although he still looked somewhat disappointed, it was much better than his previous impotent rage.
It's obvious that the series of actions just now were also Wang Yingdi's performance.
Hmm, what is "An Actor Prepares" anyway?! (Hands on hips, leaning back)
Wang Zheng asked with a grin, "Principal, did you record the location just now? Don't forget to find it later. Also, when are we landing?"
Chu Tianxing seemed to have seen through his thoughts and said with a smile, "Didn't you say you were unwilling to train here before?"
Wang Zheng gave an awkward smile.
"Things change!"
Chu Tianxing laughed and scolded:
"Don't you think about it? There aren't that many rare and precious treasures for you to find. Finding one even once is incredibly lucky."
While I think your previous deduction makes a lot of sense, we can't waste time on this indefinitely.
Anyway, the location there is remote, and according to you, the sapling is intelligent and knows how to hide. We can come back here to investigate before we go back to Jingnan.
As for landing, that's not possible right now; we need to go around.
A demon king is entrenched in the Liangshan Mountains of Sichuan, so we'll change course and head south, first to Kunming, then to Baoshan, and finally to Tengchong.
Wang Zheng asked curiously, "Tengchong? Is that the border town on the national border? Is this my destination for this training trip?"
Chu Tianxing nodded in agreement:
“That’s right. Moreover, Tengchong is the last line of defense on the border and is now under complete military control. That’s where we’re headed. Once we get there, you’ll have to rely on yourself, understand?”
Wang Zheng nodded and then said, "I understand. Shall we go directly to Kunming now?"
Chu Tianxing did not answer this time. He first looked at the locator in his hand and felt that the location was about right.
Then, with a chuckle, he swooped down from the clouds with Wang Zheng in tow, and just as they were about to reach the ground, he threw Wang Zheng off.
