The incident occurred just a few steps away from the Tree of Life, so even though the Tree of Life didn't want to pay attention, it still witnessed every move between Emerald and Xu Ling.
To be honest, after watching this inexplicable turn of events involving jade, I felt almost exactly the same way as Xu Ling!
Just as Xu Ling felt a chill run down her spine, it also felt a sense of dread when it saw Jade's strange, seemingly erratic behavior!
No, how did the elf go from disliking Xu Ling to now smiling gently at Xu Ling?
When exactly did this astonishing reversal begin?
Where exactly did it miss out on this series of changes?
The Tree of Life is truly perplexing.
It even felt as if it had suddenly entered a parallel universe, and then, inexplicably, the elf's attitude underwent a major change!
It's really hard to understand the reason behind this, or rather, the other party didn't give it any time to figure it out.
Suddenly, Emerald, which had been looking in the direction Xu Ling had left, turned around and walked towards it unexpectedly.
This is unacceptable!
The chilling feeling hadn't faded yet. Although the elf who was walking over looked relaxed and carefree, the Tree of Life couldn't help but nervously fold its lush and verdant leaves.
It's not afraid of powerful elves, it's just afraid that she might have some mental issues!
They possess superior martial arts skills, but if they can communicate normally, they should at least understand human speech; however, those with mental issues...
Who knows if, when it's earnestly trying to comfort you, it might suddenly have a brain fart and subject you to some kind of "undeserved disaster"?
We dare not gamble with the tree of life.
Then, completely silent and without uttering a single unnecessary word, it quietly allowed the emerald to sit on its body again.
However, the leaves in one direction were more densely packed together.
Although it was careful enough to avoid attracting the attention of the jade, it still couldn't avoid the slight sound of the leaves rustling.
The elf's pointed ears twitched slightly, and then it glanced casually in that direction.
The leaves obscured the view, making it completely dark, but Emerald knew that a fruit was hidden beneath the dense foliage.
That is the fruit that gives birth to elves.
However, it doesn't matter, Jade doesn't really care.
Before, she would have been somewhat worried. Now that she was dead, the newly conceived elf would naturally take her place.
But now—
She was still alive, and the Tree of Life no longer wanted to kill her.
Therefore, this new elf will not pose a threat to her!
She is still the queen!
Emerald withdrew her gaze, pretending not to have noticed anything. Sitting on the tree trunk, she leisurely swung her legs, unconsciously humming a little fairy tune.
The atmosphere here was just right, but Xu Ling, who had practically fled in disarray, was not in a good mood.
Because of the elf's uncharacteristic attitude, even though Xu Ling successfully obtained the location of Phil Academy from Emerald, she was still filled with anxiety.
In fact, she wanted to find a reliable source and share her newly acquired academy location with it, letting it assess the feasibility. However, while she thought about it, in reality, she cowered in a corner furthest from the Tree of Life, daring not to take any action whatsoever.
That elf is so strange!
Strangely enough, she didn't dare to show her face at this moment, for fear that the other party would discover her whereabouts and pester her again!
Perhaps it was because her previous environment was too naive, but even knowing that the other party could profit from her and that she had the advantage, Xu Ling's first thought was still to stay far away from them.
Before she arrived here, or before she met this elf, all she had ever encountered were people she either hated or liked.
Even if attitudes change, it's a slow change that occurs gradually over time.
Xu Ling, who was not very worldly and had become numb to the monotonous farming over the past few months, did not like this sudden attempt to please her.
She wanted to stay far away from anyone or anything she couldn't understand!
In the still of the night, without the chirping of insects or the singing of birds, Xu Ling, who didn't need to sleep, stared wide-eyed, waiting for the sun to rise.
The sky was turning white, with a slight chill in the air. Kaopu stretched and strolled out of the granary with cat-like steps.
As a system, it doesn't need to recharge through sleep. The reason it chooses to go to sleep is simply because it's tired of staying up all night with Xu Ling.
It couldn't do anything, it could only sit there and watch Xu Ling work, and what it could see was Xu Ling's unchanging movements!
At first, Kaopu didn't think much of it. In fact, he would always cheer Xu Ling on, encouraging her to work harder so that she could earn points immediately!
As it turned out, its encouragement not only failed to move Xu Ling, but was also impatiently interrupted by her.
"Can't you be quiet for a bit this late at night?!"
"Stop making so much noise! Even though there aren't many people here, you're still disturbing the neighbors!"
······
My good intentions were completely wasted!
Within two nights, Kaopu was so angry that he stopped talking to Xu Ling.
Why did you have to torture yourself by keeping her company?
And so began the days when Reliable would go back to rest with Thanos and the others at sunset, and check on Xu Ling's progress in accumulating points at sunrise!
The reliable cat stretched lazily again, and then lightly hopped towards the farmland.
Of course, it could directly open the system screen to see Xu Ling's points, but life was too boring, so it preferred to ask Xu Ling in person how she was doing and have a verbal battle with her.
However, something seems a little strange today?
When Kaopu arrived at the place where Xu Ling should have been standing, he couldn't find Xu Ling anywhere.
Before my eyes, the rice stalks, which had ripened at some unknown time, were already so golden that they bent low with their weight.
A reliable gaze swept over him, and he craned his neck to look around.
"Where did they go?"
It muttered something under its breath, but there was no sign of Xu Ling anywhere in sight.
Immediately, the cat's face scrunched up.
This is the first time it has encountered such a situation in the past few months!
What exactly happened?
