"Little girl, why have they all recovered, but I'm still bald?" The old tree looked at Nangong Xi.

"Maybe autumn is coming." Nangong Xi looked at the old tree with sympathy.

"I have never been bald in tens of thousands of years. The seasons can't do anything to me." The old tree's voice was full of vicissitudes.

Nangong Xi:…….

The seasons and the years can’t do anything to you, but darkness can.

You have never been bald for tens of thousands of years, but a handful of powder from Anming can make your tree completely bare.

Nangong Xi couldn't help but complain in her heart...

"Little girl, do you think I'm dying soon?" Lao Shu looked at Nangong Xi with worry in his eyes.

"Dead? You have lived for tens of thousands of years without dying, how is it possible to die at this time?" Nangong Xi was speechless when he heard this.

"I am definitely going to die, little girl. After I die, remember to burn paper for me." The old tree said this with tears streaming down his face.

"You're a tree, why should I burn paper for you?" Nangong Xi looked curious.

Old Tree: ...

Little girl, are you missing the point?

Shouldn't the point be that Benshu is dying?

Why is your focus on burning paper?

"I am a tree now. After I die, I will become a tree soul. As long as it is a soul, someone needs to burn paper for it." The old tree replied.

Nangong Xi: ...

Old tree, old tree, you are thinking too much.

Nangong Xi sighed, scooped out a basin of water of life from the space and poured it on the old tree.

The originally bare old tree suddenly came back to life and grew more dense leaves than before.

The old tree was shaking its branches happily, looking very pleased.

"Little girl, you are so rich. You can give out a basin of water of life with just one move." The old tree looked at Nangong Xi in surprise.

The people standing by were stunned when they saw this!

She actually took out a large basin of the water of life that they were eager for but couldn't even get a small bottle of.

They longed for the unattainable water of life, so she poured it all directly onto the old trees.

This is such a waste of resources! Such a waste of resources!

But they only dared to complain in their hearts.

After all, they couldn't afford to offend either Nangong Xi or Dashu.

"If you didn't look so pitiful, I wouldn't have taken out the water of life to water you." Nangong Xi rolled his eyes at the old tree.

"I have good vision. You are really a kind child. I'll give you this golden branch. It may come in handy." After the old tree said this, a golden branch fell from the tree.

Nangong Xi was just about to pick it up, but Hua Ning at the side pounced directly towards the golden branch.

When she grabbed the golden branch, the branch in her hand began to move uncontrollably.

Hua Ning held on to the golden branch tightly and refused to let go.

After all, the old tree said that this golden branch will be of great use in the future.

As long as I hold the golden branch in my hand, Nangong Xi and the others might come to me for help in the future.

"Ning'er, the golden branch belongs to Miss Nangong, return it back quickly." When Hu Jingtian saw Hua Ning actually trying to snatch Nangong Xi's golden branch, his face immediately darkened.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that his head must have been hit by the door before, which was why he gave up Yaoying for Hua Ning.

"Brother Jingtian, this golden branch fell from a big tree. Is there Nangong Xi's name engraved on it? How come it is hers?" Hua Ning looked reluctant.

"Ning'er, be obedient and return it quickly." Hu Jingtian said patiently.

"Brother Jingtian, you have changed." Hua Ning said with tears in her eyes.

Nangong Xi, who was standing aside, looked at the golden branch held by Hua Ning, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.

She may have the life to get it, but not necessarily the life to use it.

"Xixi, you are so shameless that you actually stole your things." Qu Xiao was full of anger.

"Sister Xiao, my things are not so easy to steal." Nangong Xi smiled when he heard that.

Just as Nangong Xi finished speaking, he heard Hua Ning's heart-wrenching roar.

It turned out that after the golden branch broke free from her hand, it directly turned into countless golden branches, and each golden branch pierced through Hua Ning's body.

Afterwards, it flew out of Hua Ning's body again, transformed into a golden branch and fell directly into Nangong Xi's hand.

Hua Ning, who was stabbed all over by the golden tree branches, fell to the ground and died with his eyes open.

The golden branch twisted a few times in Nangong Xi's hand.

"You have such a bad temper." Nangong Xi held it helplessly.

Upon hearing this, the golden branch twisted a few more times, and Nangong Xi could actually feel its resistance, resistance to what he said.

"Behave yourself, or I'll burn you into charcoal." Nangong Xi said to the golden tree branch.

Upon hearing this, the Golden Tree Branch immediately calmed down.

"Thank you, Grandpa Tree." Nangong Xi put away the golden branch and thanked the old tree.

"Little girl, your golden branch only recognizes you. If anyone else touches it, he will either die or lose his skin. So it's best if someone else touches it." The old tree instructed.

"I understand." Nangong Xi nodded. She could tell from Hua Ning's miserable condition.

"Brother, Hua Ning is dead. What should we do?" Hu Jing looked at Hu Jingtian beside him.

"She brought it upon herself. What can we do?" Hu Jingtian spread his hands.

It can be seen that Hu Jingtian no longer has any sympathy for Hua Ning at this time.

"What about her body?" Hu Jing felt that the eldest royal brother would at least take Hua Ning's body out of Binglun Valley.

"I'll give it to you if you want it." Hu Jingtian said and glanced at Hu Jing.

When Hu Jing heard this, she suddenly felt a chill rising from her heart.

Hu Jingtian himself knew how much he loved Hua Ning in the past.

That was because she gave up her engagement with the vampire princess Yaoying.

Against the entire royal family for her!

Now facing Hua Ning's death, he not only did not show a trace of sadness, but was just indifferent.

Only at this moment did Hu Jing truly feel Hu Jingtian's cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness. In fact, he loved no one but only himself.

……

Everyone rested for one night on the Wanling Grassland. The next day, when Nangong Xi and the others walked out of the tent, they found that the original forest had turned back into grassland.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the old tree standing over there.

After Nangong Xi and the others packed up and said goodbye to Lao Shu, they headed towards the path ahead.

They walked for half a day, and seeing that it was getting dark again, everyone had to rest again.

What made Nangong Xi and the others speechless was that after they rested, they saw the old tree again.

Nangong Xi felt like he was staring at the old tree.

"Old Tree, are you the old tree from yesterday?" Nangong Xi asked.

"That's rude. You should call me Grandpa Tree." A familiar voice sounded, and Nangong Xi was sure that it was indeed the same tree.

"Did we walk for half a day and end up back in the past?" Nangong Xi suddenly felt a headache.

"It's not that you have come back, but that while you were walking, due to the characteristics of the Wanling Grassland, I was also moving. So it's not that you have come back, but that we met again." said the old tree.
