Chapter 174 Whose surname is Guo! My surname is not Guo!
really……
"Ahem~ Qian Luan..."
Qian Luan's face fell. "I understand, sir. I'll keep the fruit for you."
"Why keep anything? Just eat what's given to you. There are so many fruits on the tree, all of them belong to us. Later, this princess will personally send two to your master."
Qian Luan: Woohoo... The princess is so nice.
"Princess, this is what my master asked me to give you. He said that if you uproot the tree and put it in this bag, it will still be alive and bear fruit."
Bu Ruo's eyes lit up: "That's great, put it in and let me shine the sunlight on it. The fruit will need a basket to hold it."
After Bu Ruo finished speaking, she took the bag from Qian Luan's hand and ran towards the fruit tree. Then Qian Luan saw a scene that he could never have imagined...
That fruit tree...it grew legs and ran away...
Bu Ruo: ???
"Qian Luan, what's going on? Has the broken tree been pulled out?"
Qian Luan: His family's master is indeed both vindictive and gossipy.
"Not yet. The fruit tree with long legs ran away, and the princess is chasing it."
"Run away? Yes, it has a tree spirit. Of course it will run away when it encounters an opponent it cannot defeat. Back then, I was not as powerful as I am now, and I was bullied by that broken tree..."
"What about now? What's going on? I can't go. Please tell me the details of the situation... Of course, I'm not gossiping. I'm worried about the safety of the Holy Spirit. That's it."
Qian Luan: ...
"The princess kicked it... but she missed. The tree was moving pretty fast."
"There are still quite a few ferocious beasts below, but they may have been overwhelmed by the princess's majestic and heroic demeanor. Just now, they were all baring their teeth at her, but now they turn and run away when they see her."
"But they can't run far. It seems they can only hang around here."
"Ouch, ouch, I kicked it this time. But the fruit tree was too big. Princess didn't knock it over, but she kicked down several fruits. Um... I estimated there were three or four."
"My Lord, my Lord! The princess has climbed up a tree and is picking fruit. The tree is so angry that it's jumping up and down."
"Hmm? Ah! Ahhhh! My lord, the fruit tree actually spoke!"
At this time, Bu Ruo was picking fruits desperately from the tree, cursing as he picked.
"Isn't it just picking your fruit? Are you so stingy as to hurt my man?"
"Humph, I've never been one to submit to fate. If you hit my man, I'll pluck all your fruits and uproot you."
"Five, four... they'll be gone soon~ I'm going to piss you off! I'm going to piss you off!"
Soul-Calming Fruit Tree: ...
"Are you being unreasonable? I didn't hurt your man. It was clearly those ferocious beasts down there who injured him. What does that have to do with me?"
"Besides, your man has lost his demon core and yet he dares to come to the Chaos Center. He is simply courting death. If this fruit tree hadn't taken pity on him and offered him a fruit, he wouldn't be alive now."
Bu Ruo pulled the branches hard, breaking off several and throwing them on the ground: "I told you to say he's looking for death, I told you to say it!"
"You think he's too pitiful to give him the fruit, how can you say that? Look at the beasts he killed below, they were all killed in one blow from the periphery to the center. How could a beast possibly have injured him?"
"The reason I killed the beasts is because although they weren't the real culprits, they were accomplices. If the beasts hadn't stopped him, how could he have been hurt by you? It was you who finally realized that you were no match for my man, so you took the initiative to give him the fruit."
"Hmph, you're such a murderer! I'm going to uproot you today!"
The fruit tree shuddered in fear, but still remained stubborn: "I finally produced a few fruits and he came up to pick them. So he wants to pick my fruits and I can't resist?"
"Besides..."
"What are you talking about!" Bu Ruo broke off a few more branches. "What's wrong with you bearing fruit? You're a fruit tree. Aren't the purpose of bearing fruit for people to eat? Otherwise, why do you bear fruit? Keep it for yourself to eat?"
"Stop trying to make excuses. If I don't uproot you today, I'll take your last name as Guo!"
The Soul-Calming Fruit Tree was anxious: "Whose surname is Guo?! My surname is not Guo! Guo sounds so ugly!"
"I don't care what your last name is. You'll only get one outcome today, and that's to be put into this bag!"
The fruit tree looked at the only fruit left on its branch and gritted its teeth: "Don't pick it! You've bent my beautiful branch into such a mess. It's just to put it in the bag, so why can't I do it? I'll do it!"
Bu Ruo jumped down from the fruit tree: "Why didn't you realize the situation earlier? You made me waste so much energy!"
"I'm telling you, I'll use my spiritual energy to nourish this bag. My spiritual energy is very precious. If you don't produce ten fruits for me in a year, I'll chop you in half and you'll be dead."
Fruit trees: ...
"Are you being unreasonable? I only produce three fruits in ten thousand years. I have been saving these fruits for tens of thousands of years. I produce ten a year. Why don't you go and rob them?"
Looking at the fruit tree swaying and bargaining, Bu Ruo raised his sword again: "Don't agree? Fine, then don't live now. I'll chop it down and you can take it back and use it as firewood!"
"Ah!!! Don't think you can bully trees just because you're a Holy Spirit! I'm the Soul-Calming Tree, I have a tree spirit. You actually want to chop me up to make a firewood for such a beautiful tree spirit. How lucky is your stove?"
Bu Ruo didn't bother to talk nonsense, he raised his sword and chopped at the fruit tree. A deep sword mark appeared on the fruit tree, and it howled in pain.
"Ah! How can you be like this, woman! We were just discussing something, why did you start fighting?"
"Hey? Hey, hey, hey? Ah! Stop chopping, stop chopping, it's not enough for me to produce fruit, I can produce three a year!"
"Twelve!"
"Why are you like this? Five, no more."
"Fifteen!"
"That's not how bargaining works..."
"Eighteen!"
"Okay, okay, ten is ten, ten a year. I agree."
Bu Ruo snorted lightly and continued to gesture with the sword: "It's too late, twenty, one less and you will become firewood!"
Looking at Bu Ruo's terrifying appearance, the fruit tree was shaking with anger: "Alright! I can't beat you two, you two are the ancestors, twenty is twenty, you can't increase it anymore."
"Wow... twenty a year, how much spiritual energy must that take away from me? In a few years, I won't even need you to chop them. I'll be able to turn them into firewood myself."
Qian Luan watched the fruit tree fly into the bag on its own, and his eyes almost popped out of his head in shock.
"Twenty fruits...a year...twenty fruits a year...that's the Soul-Calming Fruit! That's the Soul-Calming Fruit!"
"Sir, I suddenly feel that if the princess doesn't want to be a princess in the future, it would be nice for her to become a bandit."
The King of Hell snorted twice, "Do you think she's not a bandit? She's been one since she was a child. All the treasures I've worked so hard to save were taken away by her when she was still a child."
