Chapter 91
"What are you doing?" Bai Cangze suppressed his doubts, straightened his posture, and asked in a cold voice.
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but wonder if his tone was too cold, so he said in a more gentle tone, "Do you want to sleep in bed for a while?"
Ji Mingqing: "..."I don't want to live anymore!
Ji Mingqing thought about it for a while, then simply jumped out of bed. He fixed his hair, straightened his clothes, and coughed softly, "I wonder what the Lord wants to talk to me about?"
"I want to take you somewhere. I wonder if Master Ji has time now."
Ji Mingqing hesitated for a moment. Although he said he had time, he was more worried that Xiaowan would not be able to find him after going out, so he answered truthfully.
"Yes, I wonder where you would like to take me? I need to contact my friend first."
Bai Cangze nodded and said, "I wonder if Immortal Ji has ever heard of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree? I want to take you to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree to take a look."
So that's how it is. "So when do we leave?"
"You can do it now, but if you have anything to say, you can discuss it with your friends first." Bai Cangze said considerately.
Ji Mingqing felt more and more that the Lord was a person who appeared cold but was actually kind and considerate. He bowed and thanked the Lord, "Thank you very much, Lord."
Bai Cangze waved his hand and turned around, ready to give Ji Mingqing some privacy, but the next moment the fairy ring in Bai Cangze's hand lit up.
The friend Ji Mingqing wanted to contact turned out to be himself!
Bai Cangze hurriedly put away the Immortal Ring. Fortunately, the Immortal Ring only lit up for a moment, and Ji Mingqing didn't notice anything unusual. He just muttered, "What on earth did that person do?"
Bai Cangze's Adam's apple moved, feeling rather guilty, but luckily Ji Mingqing did not insist. He just changed someone and contacted Xu Yihe.
"If Xiaowan goes back, tell him. I might be back later."
"Boss, what does the Lord want to see you about?"
"I'm not sure either. Anyway, if Xiaowan comes back to see me, tell him that I'll be back as soon as possible."
After hanging up the fairy ring, Ji Mingqing spoke to Bai Cangze somewhat embarrassedly.
"Sorry, my Lord, for keeping you waiting."
Bai Cangze turned around and looked at Ji Mingqing, who was smiling a little shyly, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.
"No problem, let's go now."
After going out, Ji Mingqing saw an extremely luxurious carriage in front of him. It was pulled by four fairy beasts and the roof was inlaid with fairy stones.
Judging from the appearance alone, it should be a Duanyun car, but the luxurious decoration and ethereal appearance all demonstrate the noble status of its owner.
"Let's get in the car first." Bai Cangze looked at Ji Mingqing and gestured with his hand.
Ji Mingqing nodded blankly. After getting in the car, he was even more shocked by the luxurious interior decoration of the car.
Although the carriage looks small, the internal area is extremely large, probably because it uses a space superposition formation. The entire space is about 100 to 200 square meters.
In the center of the room stood a rockery. From the top of the rockery, a stream of water gurgled, flowing down the rockery into the pool surrounding it. Ji Mingqing observed that there were even a variety of ornamental fish, large and small, in all colors.
This is too luxurious!
Moreover, not to mention the rockery and the pond, even the furniture and ornaments around them all reveal a precious temperament. Even if Ji Mingqing doesn't know how much these things are worth, he can be sure that they are worth a lot of money.
However, considering that the owner of this car is the Lord, he is not surprised. He even vaguely feels that only a car like this is worthy of the Lord's status.
"How is it? Do you like it?" Bai Cangze asked with a hint of complacency.
He never took the Duanyun car when he went out. After the Duanyun car was built, he felt it was quite ostentatious, so the car was kept in his warehouse without seeing the light of day.
When he invited Ji Mingqing to go to Hongmeng Treasure Tree with him, he couldn't help but think of the existence of this car.
The Hongmeng Treasure Tree is very far away, and Ji Mingqing would consume a lot of energy if he flew there alone. He also has no way to restore his original form in front of Ji Mingqing, so this Duanyun Car is the only choice.
"It's worthy of being the Lord's car." Ji Mingqing's answer, in which he neither liked nor disliked it, made Bai Cangze feel a little uneasy. Could it be that Ji Mingqing didn't like this style?
Seeing that the Lord was not moving, Ji Mingqing did not dare to find a place to sit down. The two of them just stood at the door, not moving.
Bai Cangze was a little confused when he saw Ji Mingqing standing beside him and not moving, "Why don't you go in?"
Ji Mingqing didn't dare to say anything, and he didn't dare to go in unless he went in, so he could only walk into the house tremblingly, then found the most inconspicuous wooden stool and sat down gently on it.
He even only sat on half of the stool, leaving the other half empty, and he straightened his back and dared not move.
Bai Cangze was satisfied to see Ji Mingqing sitting down. He chose a seat not far from Ji Mingqing, sat down, and asked casually.
"How does Immortal Ji feel after arriving in the Immortal Realm?"
Ji Mingqing didn't expect Ziji to actually initiate a conversation with him, so he quickly replied, "It feels great, and the accommodation is very comfortable."
"Have you encountered any difficulties? I heard that you did some small business." After Bai Cangze finished speaking, he immediately twisted his fingers in annoyance.
The order of the questions he wrote down on the jade slip was not like this. The second question should be whether he felt accustomed to living in the fairyland, and the third question was whether there was anything that needed improvement in the fairyland.
What difficulties you encounter should be the fourth question.
Bai Cangze was annoyed, but Jin Mingqian had no idea of Bai Cangze's worries. "I didn't encounter any difficulties. I managed the fairy world in an orderly manner for the Lord."
Bai Cangze secretly rejoiced and said with some pride, "That's good."
But Bai Cangze thought of Ji Mingqing again. He must have encountered difficulties, but he didn't mention the difficulties he encountered at all, such as Yin Fuzhang who had been provoking him.
This is such a great opportunity! Why doesn't Ji Mingqing complain to me?
Bai Cangze anxiously tapped the handle of the chair with his finger and asked calmly, "Has anyone with bad intentions appeared recently?"
Ji Mingqing was stunned by Bai Cangze's question, and then he suddenly realized that the master asked this because he must have come into contact with quite a few guests in Fengxiyuan every day, so he probably wanted to ask him if he had encountered any strange people or phenomena in Fengxiyuan.
However, Fengxi Garden had always been peaceful and calm, and no such incident had occurred. Therefore, Ji Mingqing answered truthfully, "Reporting to the Lord, I have not found anyone with ill intentions."
Bai Cangze: "..." What about Yin Fuzhang? What about Yin Fuzhang who is so big and old?
Bai Cangze suddenly felt a little angry, but he didn't know what he was angry about, so he couldn't help but snorted coldly, "Forget it then."
Ji Mingqing's heart instantly rose. He didn't know why Bai Cangze's tone suddenly turned cold. He was obviously very gentle just now, why did he suddenly change his expression?
Ji Mingqing swallowed nervously. He was so nervous that he didn't even dare to look at Bai Cangze. He just lowered his head and glanced at Bai Cangze secretly.
Bai Cangze had been paying attention to Ji Mingqing's expression. When he saw Ji Mingqing suddenly become nervous, he immediately realized that there was something wrong with what he had said just now.
So he coughed lightly, slowed down his voice, and selected a sentence from his memory that was prepared on the jade slip he had prepared earlier and had nothing to do with his previous question.
"How much do you know about the Hongmeng Treasure Tree?"
Upon hearing this question, Ji Mingqing's scalp tingled. He knew almost nothing about the Hongmeng Treasure Tree. He also didn't know what had happened to the core of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree that day, and he didn't even have the chance to ask others what had happened.
Therefore, he was almost clueless about the Hongmeng Treasure Tree. However, he couldn't remain silent in response to the Lord's question, so he could only bite the bullet and answer, "I only know that all newly born immortals in the immortal world must be nurtured under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree for ten years. I really don't know anything else."
Hearing Ji Mingqing's answer, Bai Cangze chuckled, "I can sense that you have a strange connection with the Hongmeng Treasure Tree. Perhaps after today, you will be able to personally and deeply understand the extraordinary nature of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree."
Ji Mingqing was a little confused. What kind of connection could there be between him and the Hongmeng Treasure Tree? And judging from the Lord's expression...
Is he a bit moody? Ji Mingqing suddenly felt uneasy.
After saying this, Bai Cangze closed his eyes, fearing that Ji Mingqing would notice the regret in his eyes.
I prepared so many questions, but my rhythm was completely disrupted. How annoying!
Seeing that Bai Cangze hadn't said anything, Ji Mingqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He then mustered up the courage to look out the window. The quietness outside the window deeply attracted Ji Mingqing's eyes.
It was still daytime, but the faint fluorescence emitted by the nearby Heroic Soul Stars could still be clearly seen. Ji Mingqing couldn't help but stretch out his hand toward the window. Some Heroic Soul Stars with brighter light even came forward and interacted closely with Ji Mingqing.
The more Ji Mingqing looked at it, the more magical it seemed to him. He even stretched out both hands. After he stretched out both hands, he not only attracted the arrival of Yinghun Star, but also some yellow spots of light surrounded Ji Mingqing's arms. Some of them were so brave that they wanted to get into the car through the window.
Ji Mingqing forgot for a moment that he was in Bai Cangze's car. He simply turned over and knelt on the stool, with his hands and half of his body sticking out of the window, having a lot of fun playing with the white and yellow light outside the window.
But the joy turned into sorrow. The star wanted to touch the brightest yellow light in the distance, but he didn't check it for a moment, lost his balance, and began to fall out of the window.
"Ah hey hey!" Ji Mingqing was frightened and couldn't help but cry out for help. The next moment, he felt a heat coming from behind him, and his waist was pulled back by some strong tool.
Suddenly, the pressure of life and death was gone, and Ji Mingqing immediately came to his senses.
He was having so much fun just now that he forgot he was in the Lord's car.
In that case, the one who just grabbed him is...
"Why are you so careless? Although there is a formation outside to ensure your safety, it would not be a good thing if you fell like this."
"My Lord...My Lord." Ji Mingqing's heart was beating so fast in panic that it almost jumped out of his throat. Little did he know that Bai Cangze behind him was also in the same state.
"You have to be careful." Bai Cangze moved his Adam's apple, feeling excited. This was the first time he had close contact with a humanoid figure while Ji Mingqing was awake. This wonderful feeling was indescribable.
"Thank you... Thank you, my lord." Ji Mingqing felt like his ears were on fire. His behavior just now was like that of a child who knew nothing. He actually embarrassed himself in front of the lord!
Who on earth would stick their head out of the window just to catch stars? Even a child wouldn't do that!
In just half a day, he lost face twice in front of the Lord. Ji Mingqing even wanted to fold his hands in front of his chest and pray for the destruction of the world.
"My Lord, can you let me go?" Ji Mingqing pushed the hand that was around his waist and said embarrassedly.
Bai Cangze immediately let go of his hand. He looked at Ji Mingqing meaningfully, then returned to his seat and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
Seeing that Bai Cangze didn't say anything else, Ji Mingqing breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, what he had just thought was an illusion. How could such a good Lord be so capricious?
It's probably just because this person has been in a high position for many years, so he is used to being serious.
Ji Mingqing said to himself in his heart, and then he no longer dared to stretch his hand out of the window. He could only press his head on the windowsill, feeling the breeze on his face and the scattered enthusiasm.
It would be great if Xiaowan was here. If Xiaowan was here, Ji Mingqing could ask what that yellow light spot was.
"Those yellow dots of light are immortal spirits, formed entirely from the gathering of immortal energy. They already possess basic intelligence. If they cultivate successfully, they will likely gather into human form in the future, and be no different from other immortals."
How could this actually happen? The fairy world is truly magical.
"It's just that those fairies just now, like those on the Heroic Soul Star, rarely get close to fairies. I didn't expect them to get close to you as well."
Also? Ji Mingqing thought to himself, could it be that the Lord also knew about Yinghunxing's previous closeness to him? But at that time, it was just him and Xiaowan, and Xiaowan would definitely not reveal this matter.
It seems that the Lord's omniscience is true! Ji Mingqing felt a surge of admiration in his heart.
He truly deserves to be the number one in the Immortal Realm! Being able to know everything is truly amazing.
"When you get to the foot of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, you can practice for a while. The immortals who ascended from the lower realms are different from those born in the immortal world. Without this tempering, the speed of their future cultivation will be quite different."
"Ah!" There is such a good thing! There are not many opportunities to practice under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree. Ji Mingqing immediately looked at Bai Cangze with gratitude, "Thank you so much, Lord!"
Bai Cangze nodded, as if accepting Ji Mingqing's thanks. You know, the immortals who ascended from the lower realm have few opportunities to practice in the Hongmeng Treasure Tree. When they joined the Kunze Palace army, they could only have one opportunity to practice every year.
It didn't take long for the two to reach their destination. The moment they stepped off the Broken Cloud Car, Ji Mingqing felt as if his mind was suddenly healed by the immortal energy released by the Hongmeng Treasure Tree.
Even though he hadn't started practicing yet, he already felt that all the meridians in his body were opened, and immortal energy was continuously rushing into his body.
"So comfortable!" Ji Mingqing exclaimed, and Bai Cangze reminded him at the right time, "Feel the difference between the fairy energy of the tree core you touched today and that day at the entrance of Kunze Palace."
It turned out that this was the main reason why the Lord called him over. Ji Mingqing took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and allowed the immortal energy to invade his body.
He recalled the feeling when he had just touched the tree core and compared it with the feeling now, but no matter what, he could not find any similarities.
It wasn't because of anything else, but because he really couldn't remember what happened that day, no matter how hard he tried to recall it.
Ji Mingqing slowly opened his eyes, looked anxiously at Bai Cangze who was standing beside him, and said cautiously: "My Lord, I really can't remember..."
Bai Cangze lowered his head and looked at Ji Mingqing who was looking at him pitifully, and his desire to protect him suddenly increased.
"It's okay. I didn't mean to force you to remember what happened that day." After saying that, Bai Cangze pointed to the only place with a cushion under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree.
"Just go there and practice, and see how much protection the Hongmeng Treasure Tree can give you. After you finish practicing, we'll go back together."
Ji Mingqing suppressed the ecstasy in his heart. Opportunities are rare and will never come again. Although he had never thought that he would have the chance to practice under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree before, since the Lord gave him this chance, he must seize it!
Ji Mingqing immediately ran to the only cushion under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, sat down, closed his eyes and prepared to start practicing.
However, before practicing, Ji Mingqing thought of something. He opened his eyes and smiled shyly at Bai Cangze.
"Thank you, my Lord."
Bai Cangze had never seen Ji Mingqing like this before. His heart skipped a beat and he took a deep breath to control his expression. He nodded seriously and said, "Practice."
Ji Mingqing then closed his eyes again and immediately entered a state of cultivation.
He started practicing his skills, feeling the endless stream of pure immortal energy entering his body. The immortal energy under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree was also mixed with the breath of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, which happened to match Ji Mingqing's attributes.
Gradually, Ji Mingqing felt that his soul floated to a place surrounded by white mist. He knew that he was practicing under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, but he could not control his thoughts.
And perhaps this was not his thoughts, but his soul, which had actually left his body. Ji Mingqing, who was confused, was temporarily unable to judge the current situation.
But he didn't feel any sense of crisis. He just felt that he seemed to have returned to a place where he felt very safe. This place seemed to have given him endless joy and satisfaction, but Ji Mingqing knew nothing about it.
The next second, the white mist in front of him seemed to come alive and began to rush madly into Ji Mingqing's body. Ji Mingqing didn't even react for a moment, and the meridians and flesh in his body were invaded by the white mist in front of him.
What Ji Mingqing didn't know was that this was the purest immortal energy that the Hongmeng Treasure Tree could only produce after a thousand years, and only two people had received the gift from the Hongmeng Treasure Tree in ten thousand years.
One of them is the Lord.
"Uh ah..." Ji Mingqing's body could hardly bear being surrounded by too much pure immortal energy at once. Even though he had now advanced from a near-immortal to an average immortal, he still couldn't fully accept this sudden gift.
Bai Cangze, who was standing in front of Ji Mingqing, saw a little blood on Ji Mingqing's clothes. He immediately ran over to check, then looked up at the Hongmeng Treasure Tree behind Ji Mingqing and shouted, "His body can't bear it now!"
The Hongmeng Treasure Tree ignored Bai Cangze's cries and continued to stuff the essence of immortal energy that he had accumulated over the years into Ji Mingqing's body. It even stretched out a branch and pushed Bai Cangze aside from Ji Mingqing.
Bai Cangze, who was driven aside, looked unhappy and asked, "What on earth are you going to do?"
The Hongmeng Treasure Tree retracted its branches, completely ignoring Bai Cangze's impotent rage, but perhaps because of the blood stains seeping out of Ji Mingqing's clothes, the speed at which the Hongmeng Treasure Tree transferred immortal energy into Ji Mingqing's body also slowed down.
Seeing that Ji Mingqing seemed to be feeling better, Bai Cangze finally felt relieved.
"Why do you want to give him all the treasures you have accumulated over the years?" Bai Cangze looked at the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, trying to find an answer.
However, the Hongmeng Treasure Tree did not seem to give him any chance. Now all his attention was on the fledgling immortal in front of him. There was a smell about this person that attracted him and made him feel familiar.
Even Hongmeng Baoshu himself was acting on instinct, so there was no way he could explain his actions to Bai Cangze.
Although this pure immortal energy seems precious and extraordinary in the eyes of others, it is dispensable to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree. Even if he does not get the answer he wants after giving it to Ji Mingqing, he will not regret it.
But Ji Mingqing did not give him a chance to regret. After the Hongmeng Treasure Tree gave all of its stock to Ji Mingqing, immortal energy began to rise from Ji Mingqing's body. When Bai Cangze saw this, he really remembered that when Ji Mingqing was practicing, he took care of the nearby plants.
The Hongmeng Treasure Tree, as the largest plant in the fairy world, naturally has the greatest tacit understanding with Ji Mingqing.
With the light of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, there are also many plants nearby that can be called the top immortal plants in the immortal world. However, the immortal energy emitted by Ji Mingqing during his cultivation did not yield to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree at all, and even took it all into its body in a domineering manner, taking as much as it could.
Bai Cangze looked at the reaction of Hongmeng Treasure Tree with some surprise. In his mind, Hongmeng Treasure Tree has always been a generous and selfless good guy. He didn't expect that as soon as Ji Mingqing appeared, Hongmeng Treasure Tree would take it all into its pocket.
"Be careful." Bai Cangze looked at the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, whose leaves couldn't help but dance on its branches, and reminded him at the right time: "He is still just an ordinary immortal, he can't bear too much."
The Hongmeng Treasure Tree did not comment. After absorbing enough, it injected its own spiritual energy into Ji Mingqing's body, and then waited for Ji Mingqing to repay it.
After going back and forth like this, Bai Cangze was surprised to find that the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, which had previously shown signs of decay, had actually blossomed with vitality again. Green leaves had actually grown on the previously withered branches, and it was growing faster and faster with Ji Mingqing's cultivation.
Bai Cangze then understood why Hongmeng Treasure Tree was so anxious before. At this moment, the two of them seemed to have reached a tacit understanding, and the immortal energy that was just surging had now calmed down.
Seeing this, Bai Cangze simply sat aside. Even so, he did not relax, for fear that Ji Mingqing might make some mistakes during his practice.
At this moment, Ji Mingqing also felt that he was in a mysterious state. He had never felt so comfortable before. This relaxed and comfortable feeling was like being back home.
But this is not his home, but Ji Mingqing is a little greedy for this warmth. He is like a young bird returning to its nest, madly absorbing the nutrients around him. He knows that no one at home will blame him for his greed.
After a long time, Ji Mingqing slowly opened his eyes. After opening his eyes, Ji Mingqing was distracted for a moment. He blinked hard, looked at the unfamiliar surroundings, and waited for his memories to slowly return.
After a while, Ji Mingqing remembered that he was now under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, and that the Lord had brought him directly here from Kunze Palace.
With the experience from last time, Ji Mingqing circulated the immortal energy in his body, and then was surprised to find that he was now a Golden Immortal!
Ji Mingqing jumped up excitedly. Golden Immortal! This meant he could return to his small world, return home, and live the normal life he had always dreamed of!
The most important thing is that after he goes back, he can tell his mother that he is living well, that he is not dead, and that he has even become a god.
He could also say that he had actually received the offer and was ready to start the job, and he even told his mother that he was brave and made the right choice at the time.
The more Ji Mingqing thought about it, the more excited he became. He couldn't wait to return to the small world and couldn't wait even for a second!
"Have you finished your cultivation?" Ji Mingqing was so excited when he heard the voice of the Lord next to him. He no longer cared about the huge difference in their identities and ran to the Lord, wanting to share his good news with him.
Before he could even open his mouth, he heard the Lord's satisfied exclamation: "Yes, you are the fastest advancing immortal in the immortal world."
"It only took one year to advance from Pingxian to Jinxian."
"One year?" Ji Mingqing raised his voice, "Isn't it one day?"
It only took Ji Ming one night to practice. Every time he practiced, he would recover from his state of meditation without Xiaowan's reminder.
When he opened his eyes, he found that judging from the direction of the sun, it should be morning, so he thought that he had only practiced for one night and one morning.
"Have I been practicing for a year?" Ji Mingqing was incredulous.
"It's bad!" Ji Mingqing suddenly remembered that he had agreed with Xiaowan that he would go back soon. He has been away for a year and cannot even receive the fairy ring. The Lord will definitely not take the initiative to help him contact his friends.
It's over! Xiaowan must be angry, maybe he has already left!
Ji Mingqing hurriedly took out the fairy ring from the storage bag, but when he looked down, he saw that he was covered in blood and his clothes were soaked in blood.
He was startled and didn't care about etiquette. He looked at Bai Cangze in panic and asked.
"My Lord, what's wrong with me?"
Bai Cangze explained in a gentle tone, "It's nothing. It's inevitable that some impurities will be expelled from the body during cultivation. Your progress was slow before, so you didn't notice it. But you directly advanced from a Level Immortal to a Golden Immortal in just one year, which is a positive leap. It's normal for this to happen."
So that's how it is. Ji Mingqing relaxed and said that being covered in blood was really uncomfortable. He thought of using the cleaning technique to make do with it, and then take a good bath when he returned to Fengxi Garden.
I don't know how the inn is going now. It's been a year, it should be completed. He should build a fairy pool area.
but……
"My Lord, have you been waiting here for a whole year?"
Bai Cangze shook his head guiltily after hearing this, "That's not the case. I just had a feeling you would wake up today, so I came here early."
I didn’t expect that the Lord could actually tell fortunes!
Mingming Ting hurriedly performed a cleansing spell on her entire body, and then begged him, "Can I leave now?"
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Bai Cangze nodded and said, "Of course."
After saying that, the two of them walked towards the Duanyun car. When they reached the door of the Duanyun car, Ji Mingqing suddenly stopped.
Bai Cangze, who had already gotten into the car, turned around and looked at Ji Mingqing, asking in confusion, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
A few years ago, I was a little embarrassed and asked Bai Cangze, "Can I say goodbye to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree?"
After finishing his training, he was stunned by the huge surprise. He just realized that his result must be closely related to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree.
Bai Cangze naturally had no objection. He nodded. Ji Mingqing turned around as if he had received an imperial decree, ran to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree as fast as he could, opened his arms, and gave the Hongmeng Treasure Tree a big hug.
"Thank you." Ji Mingqing pressed his face against the tree trunk, rubbing it gently, and said with some nostalgia: "It's a pity that I can't come here again in the future. I will miss you."
After Ji Mingqing finished speaking, he heard a "click" sound. It turned out that the Hongmeng Treasure Tree gave him a branch.
Ji Mingqing was a little bit incredulous, "Is this for me?"
Another branch of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree rolled up the broken branch and stuffed it into Ji Mingqing's arms. Only then did Ji Mingqing confirm that this branch was really a gift from the Hongmeng Treasure Tree to him.
Ji Mingqing happily hugged the Hongmeng Treasure Tree again, "Thank you for your gift, I will try my best to keep it alive!"
The Hongmeng Treasure Tree retracted its branches and no longer responded to Ji Mingqing. Seeing this, Ji Mingqing also loosened his arms around the trunk.
"Then we'll meet again if we're lucky." Ji Mingqing bowed deeply to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree to express his gratitude, then turned around and ran towards the Duanyun Car.
After getting in the car, Ji Mingqing held the branch given to him by the Hongmeng Treasure Tree in his hand without saying a word. Bai Cangze saw that Ji Mingqing, who had been practicing for a year, was just staring at the branch in his hand, and he felt a little unhappy.
"Bring it here and let me see." Bai Cangze did not specify what he wanted to see, but Ji Mingqing knew that he wanted to see the branch in his hand.
Ji Mingqing offered it to him without objection. Bai Cangze took the branch and carefully examined it, discovering that it was indeed a section of the Hongmeng Treasure Tree with the most immortal energy.
Bai Cangze was satisfied and threw the branch back into Ji Mingqing's arms, "You can try to plant it."
Ji Mingqing nodded happily and said, "That's what I thought!" Unexpectedly, he and the Lord had such a tacit understanding.
On the way back, Ji Mingqing was completely focused and had been playing with the branch in his hand carefully, injecting fairy energy into the branch from time to time. Bai Cangze didn't even find a chance to talk to Ji Mingqing, which made him feel a little unhappy.
But what Bai Cangze didn't know was that Ji Mingqing was actually struggling in his heart. There were two things bothering him now. One was how to explain his disappearance to Xiaowan when he returned, and the other was whether he should ask the Lord for help.
He has now reached the level of Golden Immortal and can definitely return to the small world, but it would be great if the Lord could help and send him back to the time before his accident.
Belated compensation and recovery of lost things can never make up for the damage caused at the time.
Ji Mingqing's nails scratched on the branch, peeling off a layer of fluff. The next moment he immediately realized what he had done and quickly withdrew his hand, but he couldn't bear the tension in his heart, so he put the branch away and began to knead the corner of his clothes.
"What are you going to do after you go back?" Bai Cangze asked, "After a year, you should have a lot of things to do."
Ji Mingqing nodded. "The inn should have been built. I don't know if the other businesses have encountered any difficulties. I also planted a lot of immortal plants. I don't know how they will grow this year."
"Hmm." Bai Cangze was a little dissatisfied. "Besides that, is there anything else important that you haven't done?"
Ji Mingqing thought about it and shook his head, "Probably not."
After hearing Ji Mingqing's answer, Bai Cangze said "hmm" nonchalantly.
He was so angry, so angry! After disappearing for a whole year, didn't Ji Mingqing know that he should report his safety as soon as he woke up?
He also said that he likes Xiaowan the most, and he has changed in just one year!
Although Bai Cangze had been with Ji Mingqing all year, Ji Mingqing himself didn't know about it, which made Bai Cangze feel a little depressed.
The two of them didn't say a word along the way. After returning to Kunze Palace, Bai Cangze thought of Ji Mingqing covered in blood and felt a little reluctant.
"There is a fairy pond in Kunze Palace that can nourish both the body and the soul. I see you are covered in blood just now. Even if you use the cleansing technique, it must be uncomfortable. You can go and soak in it and then leave on your own."
Ji Mingqing's eyes lit up. The Lord had not said a word to him when he returned to the city. He was so nervous that he thought he had said something wrong.
I didn't expect that I had wrongly blamed the Lord again. I really shouldn't have done that!
"Thank you, my lord!" Ji Mingqing bowed deeply to Bai Cangze. Bai Cangze waved his hand casually and asked the nearby immortal to lead Ji Mingqing to soak in the immortal pool.
After arriving at the fairy pond, Ji Mingqing took off his clothes and jumped into the water with a "splash". The moment his skin touched the water, he felt that all the pores in his body relaxed.
The Fairy Pond is truly worthy of its name. The water temperature is just right and the air is full of fairy spirit. Only when Ji Mingqing can soak in it does he feel like he has truly become a fairy.
However, Ji Mingqing did not enjoy it too much. He took out the fairy ring from the storage bag and immediately dialed the mark he wanted to dial before.
Bai Cangze returned to the main hall and felt his fairy ring vibrating. After taking out the fairy ring, he found that it was Ji Mingqing who was bathing in the fairy pool.
Bai Cangze's mood, which had just been a little depressed, immediately brightened up. He opened the immortal ring, answered the call, and said in a cold yet reserved tone, "Who is it?"
After hearing Xiaowan's tone, Ji Mingqing felt disappointed and angry. Xiaowan must be angry!
Ji Mingqing immediately used his most gentle tone to speak to Xiaowan: "It's me, Xiaowan, Ji Mingqing."
The corners of Bai Cangze's lips unconsciously rose, "It's Master Ji, what can I do for you?"
Ji Mingqing immediately became anxious, "Xiao Wan, listen to my explanation. I really didn't know I would be away for so long. I went to the Hongmeng Treasure Tree with the Lord, and then practiced under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree. I thought it would only be one night at most. I really didn't expect that I would practice under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree for a whole year."
"If I had known that I would be cultivating under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree for a year, I would definitely tell you in advance. Maybe I would even ask the Lord to take you over. However, there is nothing to do under the Hongmeng Treasure Tree, and you would be bored if you came."
"But I didn't mean to stop you from coming. I still hope you can come and accompany me. It was really sudden and I didn't expect this to happen. When I woke up, I knew I had been training for a year. My first reaction was that Xiaowan would definitely be angry."
After saying a lot, Ji Mingqing carefully apologized to Xiaowan: "Xiaowan, I'm really sorry. I will definitely not do this again next time."
Ji Mingsheng was nervous and waited slowly for Xiaowan's judgment on the other side of the fairy ring. After hearing a slow "hmm" from the opposite side, Ji Mingqing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then do you want to sleep together tonight?" Ji Mingqing asked tentatively. Then he heard a crackling sound coming from the other side of the fairy ring. Ji Mingqing immediately asked nervously, "Xiao Wan, what's wrong with you?"
"fine."
Hearing Xiaowan's steady voice, Ji Mingqing felt relieved. He repeatedly assured Xiaowan that he would definitely return to Fengxi Garden tonight, and then hung up the fairy ring.
"So comfortable~" After solving a difficult problem in his mind, Ji Mingqing also relaxed a lot.
However, he was too embarrassed to soak in the fairy pool of Kunze Palace for too long. After washing himself carefully, Ji Mingqing stood up, only to find that there was only a thin shirt in his storage bag, which could barely cover his body.
Ji Mingqing has never had the habit of bringing clothes with him when he goes out, and he only has three sets of clothes in total after coming to the fairyland for so long, and the other two sets seem to be left at home.
After leaving for a year, Ji Mingqing's memory was a little fuzzy. It's not that this thin shirt is not suitable for public viewing, but few people in the fairy world wear it like this.
Ji Mingqing hesitated for a second between the dirty clothes and the thin shirt, and then he firmly chose the thin shirt.
Although the dirty clothes had been cleaned by the cleaning technique, the sight of them being soaked in blood was deeply engraved in Ji Mingqing's mind, and he still found it difficult to get over it.
After putting on his thin shirt, Ji Mingqing walked towards the entrance of Kunze Palace. Halfway there, he was still struggling with whether he should ask the Lord for help.
Ji Mingqing's pace gradually slowed down. He thought about it over and over again. After two exchanges with the Lord, he felt that the Lord was not an unkind person. If he explained his reasons to him, maybe the Lord would be merciful and really send him back.
Even if he disagreed, so what? The chances of meeting the Lord in the future were slim anyway, so even if it was embarrassing, it was only once. It was no big deal to give it a try!
Ji Mingqing secretly encouraged himself. He made up his mind and turned around to ask an immortal in Kunze Palace where the Lord was. The immortal pointed him in the direction and left quickly.
Ji Mingqian gritted his teeth and walked straight to the main hall. When he arrived at the hall, he saw the majestic figure of the Lord. He was about to step forward to greet him, but he found that the next second the Lord had turned into a cat.
And that cat...
