“Ah!” The Holy Tree let out a roar of rage. “Little fellow, you actually dare to toy with this Lord like that?! Hurry up and hand over that magical energy! Otherwise, this Lord will make you suffer!”
“Keke! Does our dear Lord Holy Tree want to see something good?” Jun Mo Xie smirked as he crossed his leg. A hong sound rang out as a plume of black fire darker than night itself burst out of his hand, burning silently…
This flame was emanating endless death energy!
The Flame of Primal Chaos!
A threat! A bare and naked threat!
The Holy Tree’s eyes widened even more, popping out once again.
It could clearly sense that this seemingly harmless black flame could easily turn its huge body which had taken over 10,000 years to grow into ashes. Even more scary was that because they were inside its body right now, it did not have the ability to resist this power at all…
Lord Rainbow Holy Tree instantly shut its mouth!
The long line of drool finally broke with a splish sound. At the same time, its enormous head was filled with water…
From the looks of it, it had been scared to the point it was sweating…
It was too unlucky to have met with such a thing!
Lord Holy Tree was already on the verge of crying…
How did I provoke such a jinx? I initially thought that this separate s.p.a.ce could easily neutralize all outside energies, which was why I had boldly called this human in for a ‘talk’…
If the talk went south, it could directly turn this kid into fertilizer, and that energy it was after would not be able to escape either…
But not only had that failed, it had even ended up handing its little life into this fellow’s hands as a result of this ‘talk’…
It’s fine if the heavens make one commit a sin. However, one mustn’t commit a sin on their own initiative.
This was a famous saying whose essence is truth itself!
Lord Holy Tree opened and closed its mouth, not knowing how to react. Although it was over 10,000 years old, its intelligence was only comparable to a little child. Could a child react properly when faced with a dangerous situation?
Fortunately, Young Master Jun was kind enough to give this ‘kid’ the proper guidance!
“I say… Lord Holy Tree… didn’t you want to look at something good? Is this nice looking?! This energy is magical enough, right?!” Jun Mo Xie lowered his head and looked at the ball of Flame of Primal Chaos in his hand. With a sudden toss, the Flame of Primal Chaos instantly flew up, burning brilliantly in midair.
The moment it left Jun Mo Xie’s hand, the power of the Flame of Primal Chaos was completely unleashed. The seven colored energies in the s.p.a.ce, which was the essence of the Rainbow Holy Tree, was unable to escape the fate of being burned, although it was just gaseous energy. Wood breeds fire, and the Flame of Primal Chaos began to burn even fiercer…
“WAIT…” The Holy Tree’s voice turned sharp. “Youngling, stop it ah! Don’t ah…” An intense sensation surged through its body as its face contorted with pain…
“Hm? Brat, what did you call me?” Jun Mo Xie narrowed his eyes and summoned another ball of Flame of Primal Chaos. This ball of flame was even bigger than the previous one.
Lord Holy Tree nearly forgot about its current pain in its shock! Oh my G.o.d! I can’t bear even one flame, and there’s still a second one?! Help…
“Big… brother…” The Holy Tree suddenly became enlightened under the threat of extreme danger, directly calling him Big brother.
“Hm… big brother?… That still seems to be somewhat lacking… it’s not comfortable enough…” Young Master Jun lowered his head and played with the ball of Flame of Primal Chaos. Waving his hand aggressively, it seemed as if he was about to throw that ball of flame out as well…
“No no no… Old Master, Old Master… you’re my Old Master… my dearest Old Master…” Lord Holy Tree was completely subdued…
“Who is your dearest Old Master? Old Master is fine, what dearest Old Master… Forget it, this Young Master is a magnanimous person and will not be so calculative towards you…” With a wave of his hand, the Flame of Primal Chaos that was hovering in midair flew back, and the two ball of flames merged together as they danced merrily in his hand…
The danger was finally temporarily over.
Lord Holy Tree heaved a sigh of relief. It had nearly p.i.s.sed itself from fear a moment ago… that was, if it could pee in the first place…
But if it could sweat, it might not be impossible that it could pee as well…
“Old Master… wu…” This Lord Holy Tree finally could not bear it and it started crying. It had never seen anyone bullying a person like that… no, bullying a tree like that…
“En. Please put those eyeb.a.l.l.s back before talking; it’s uncomfortable for me to look at.” Jun Mo Xie shook his leg and and pointed at the two large eyeb.a.l.l.s that had fallen in front of him.
Lord Holy Tree hurriedly nodded and with a sou sound, the two eyeb.a.l.l.s were retrieved. After that, its wizened old face twisted together with a fawning expression as it asked, “Old Master, what other instructions do you have?”
Hearing the old tree calling him ‘Old Master’, Young Master Jun felt somewhat speechless. “I say… you’ve already lived for over 10,000 years. How come you don’t have any backbone at all?”
Young Master Jun was truly somewhat helpless against this spineless tree. Even a normal expert would always have their own insistence. But this tree was great; with just a bit of threatening, it even called out ‘Old Master’ so enthusiastically…
Truthfully, Lord Holy Tree was quite helpless as well. You brat are at the most sensitive part of my body, and you took out such a horrifying flame all of a sudden, and even forced me so shamelessly to call you Old Master. After being forced and calling you Old Master, you said that I have no backbone… what do you want then? Why are you so hard to please?
I also want my pride. But if I hold on to my pride… my little life will be forfeited… Do you think it was easy to live for over 10,000 years…
“Old Master… having a backbone may be important…” Lord Holy Tree said with a bitter face: “… But my little life… is more important…”
“I see.” Jun Mo Xie said with some exasperation. “You lifeforms from outside of civilization have too little education! If you discard your pride for the sake of living on, what is the point of life? Can’t you have some goals? Something to pursue? The most basic self esteem?”
Lord Holy Tree nodded repeatedly in an eager manner, but it felt exceedingly bitter in its heart. If you’re the one with a knife hanging above your neck, I’ll like to see how you insist on your pride… F*ck, you’re talking about pride to a person whose life was in danger? I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never seen anyone this shameless…
“Didn’t they say that there were quite a few Rainbow Holy Trees here? How come there’s only you here alone? Where are the others?” Jun Mo Xie sighed and shook his head. From the way he saw it, talking to this fellow about pride was no different than playing the lute to a cow. But this was fine as well; at least he would be saving himself some trouble…
“Who said that? There’s only been me here all along!” Lord Holy Tree exclaimed. But in an instant, it understood what he meant. “Are you talking about those trees that the other humans grew?”
“That;s right.” Jun Mo Xie nodded.
“Pei! Those few broken things are deserving of the name Rainbow Holy Tree as well?” Lord Holy Tree seemed to have regained his previous arrogant air again. When it compared itself to those other trees, it instantly felt much more lofty. “Those little trees are actually just young saplings that were grafted from my branches. They are in essence, this Lord Holy Tree’s children and grandchildren. Those things do not have any consciousness, and even if they grew for another 10,000 years, they would never be able to produce any Seven Colored Holy Fruits! They simply do not possess that ability; I’ve swallowed them long ago…
“Swallowed… F*ck!” Jun Mo Xie widened his eyes with disbelief. This fellow was actually so heartless… to even be able to swallow its own children and grandchildren!
“Oh? So from what you said, it is impossible for a second Rainbow Holy Tree to appear in this world?” Jun Mo Xie narrowed his eyes.
“That is not necessarily so. As long as I’m willing… En, actually, it’s like this; how can nurturing a Rainbow Holy Tree be such an easy matter? Without experiencing the winds and rain of thousands of years… how can one grow up? The Holy Tree… is naturally the only one…” As it spoke, Lord Holy Tree changed its tone and shook its head as it hummed. “A Holy Tree is a large tree; a large tree turns into an old tree, and only after being refined by rain and gale, can it be considered a tree that towers to the sky…”
This fellow actually knows how to compose poems!
Young Master Jun truly began to look at it with a different light…
“There’s really no way to cultivate a second Rainbow Holy Tree?” Young Master Jun’s voice turned somewhat dangerous. The ball of Flame of Primal Chaos began to sway back and forth in a horrifying manner as he sighed in a pitiful tone. “Ai… I guess there’s no point in leaving you alive then… when I came in today, I was intending on obtaining a method to cultivate a new tree. You’re too big, and I can’t take you away no matter what… If I can’t cultivate a new tree, that would mean that I’m destined to not be able to get a Rainbow Holy Tree… If I can’t have something, how can I allow others to have it? Since you said you’re the only one, I’ll just have to kill you then. From now on, the Rainbow Holy Tree will become history, belonging to no one…”
With a whoos.h.i.+ng sound, the Flame of Primal Chaos surged upwards again…
How could Young Master Jun be such an extreme person? But from the words of this Rainbow Holy Tree, he could already tell that this fellow was at the crucial point in nurturing another Rainbow Holy Tree. However, this fellow was obviously quite dishonest…
But this Young Master is already standing in your heart right now… is there any use… in being dishonest?
“Don’t~~ Old Master!!! Old Master, I’m calling you Old Master, isn’t that fine? Please don’t set me on fire ah…” Lord Holy Tree’s voice reached a new pitch as its face was filled with water. “We’re family, everything can be talked over; everything can be discussed…”
“Who is family with you? What a bullsh*t discussion! Since you cannot give me a Holy Tree, and I can’t take you away… what is there left to discuss?” Young Master Jun’s voice was fierce and sharp as he continued fiercely. “Since it’s impossible, I’ll just have to burn the bridges. n.o.body will get anything!!!”
