Chapter 163: Finally Back!

 

Although crystal mines were rare, the consequences of a volcano eruption were too serious. Bai Di and Huanhuan were unwilling to see the tragedy of the forest burning to ashes.

Moreover, Chang Gu was guarding this place. He would not let anyone mine the crystal mine.

After weighing the pros and cons, Bai Di finally gave up on mining the crystal mine.

Chang Gu said, “Thank you for your kindness. The Goddess of Nature will like you.”

Bai Di smiled. “The black crystal essence you’re giving us is worth the entire mine. We didn’t lose out.”

He let Huanhuan put the black crystal essence into the ring space and bring it back to Sang Ye.

Sang Ye’s beast soul was of the dark attribute. This black crystal essence was very suitable for him.

Before leaving, Chang Gu suddenly called Huanhuan in front of him. His cold tone was deep.

“You’re a kind little female. If you ever condense a heart of nature, I hope you’ll keep your kindness.”

Huanhuan smiled embarrassedly. “I won’t condense the heart of nature because my Divine Wood seed is a dead seed.”

However, Chang Gu said something meaningful.

“The Divine Wood is a symbol of life. As long as you have hope, it’ll never die.”

Huanhuan seemed to understand, but at the same time, she did not. “Oh.”

After bidding farewell to Mr. Pangolin, the group set off again.

Two days later, they finally saw the familiar forest.

Four silver-white wolves ran out of the forest. They seemed to have grown a lot. Their silver-white fur shone in the sun. They ran with authority.

They threw Huanhuan to the ground and stuck out their wet tongues to lick her face.

Huanhuan was tickled by the licking. She smiled and said, “Stop licking me. Let me up.”

Shuang Yun walked after them. He picked up the four wolves and threw them aside.

Huanhuan could finally get up from the ground.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she stabilized herself, Shuang Yun picked her up. His dark green eyes were filled with warmth.

Huanhuan looked at him. She had missed him.

Shuang Yun said, “You seem to have gained weight.”

Huanhuan: “…”

‘Bastard! I can’t live like this anymore. Let’s get a divorce!’

She glared at Shuang Yun angrily. He leaned over and kissed her face. “Don’t look at me like that. You’re making me hard.”

“…”

This big pervert was acting like a hooligan in broad daylight. How shameless!

Huanhuan pushed Shuang Yun’s head aside and asked, “Where’s Sang Ye?”

Shuang Yun was unhappy. “Why are you asking about Sang Ye the moment we met? Why aren’t you asking about me?”

“You’re already hard. Do I still need to ask?”

After saying this, Huanhuan couldn’t help but cover her face.

Oh no, she had been influenced as well. She could actually say such dirty words when she opened her mouth.

But Shuang Yun smiled happily. “Do you want to touch it? You haven’t had it in a long time. It misses you.”

Huanhuan shouted, “I’m not touching you. Don’t do anything rash!”

In the end, it was Bai Di who stopped Shuang Yun in time.

Huanhuan hid behind Bai Di and stuck out her tongue at Shuang Yun. “You big pervert!”

Shuang Yunlang laughed.

A black python slithered out of the forest.

As soon as Huanhuan saw him, she immediately waved her arms. “Sang Ye!”

Sang Ye quickly slithered in front of Huanhuan and wrapped her up with his snake tail. His scarlet snake tongue swept across her face. “You’re finally back.”

Huanhuan hugged his head and rubbed against it.

Shuang Yun noticed that there were other beasts behind Bai Di. “What’s up with these guys?” he asked softly.

Bai Di told him about the chamber of commerce.

Shuang Yun said, “It’s good to do business with the chamber of commerce, but we have to get them to sign a contract first, lest they leak the true situation of the Rock Wolf Tribe.”

Before they were truly powerful, revealing their strength too early would attract unnecessary trouble.

It was better for them to keep a low profile.

Bai Di nodded. “Yes.”

He paused, then added, “We caught another guy this time.”

“Who?”

Bai Di dragged the dying Ma Qing out. “We ran into him halfway and caught him.”

Shuang Yun grinned. “To think we spent so much effort previously and never managed to catch him. I didn’t expect him to fall into our hands!”

Bai Di said, “Find a way to pry information about Dark Moon Temple out of him when we get back.”

“No problem. Leave this to me!”

The group returned to the rock mountain.

Dong Ya was waiting at the foot of the mountain with his sister. As soon as they saw Huanhuan and the others return, they immediately went forward and called out happily, “Teacher, welcome home!”

Huanhuan looked up at the rock mountain wrapped in green creepers, her eyes filled with nostalgia.

She was finally back!

The creepers smelled the familiar scent on her body and took the initiative to extend a vine to gently touch the back of her hand.

Huanhuan grabbed the vine. “Thank you for watching over the place.”

The leaves on the vine swayed slightly as if to say she was welcome.

Huanhuan loosened her fingers, and the vine retracted.

She and Sang Ye went up first, leaving Bai Di to make arrangements for Mayne and the others at the foot of the mountain. Shuang Yun carried the dying Ma Qing and strode toward the second underground floor.

Not long after Huanhuan left, Shuang Yun made the second underground floor a dungeon. There was a matching torture room beside it to punish those who had broken the law.

Shuang Yun threw Ma Qing into the interrogation room and began to interrogate him about Dark Moon Temple.

At the same time, Bai Di had signed a contract with Mayne not to tell anyone about the Rock Wolf Tribe’s situation.

He then led Mayne into the fort.

As soon as they entered, Mayne and the guys behind him looked shocked.

They did not expect that there was a secret fortress hidden on this ordinary mountain!

Bai Di said to Mayne, “The first floor is a business district. All the shops are here. If you want to trade, you can do it here. As for the other places, you don’t have access to them yet. When we’ve traded more and can trust each other completely, I’ll show you around personally.”

Mayne nodded quickly. “Don’t worry, Your Highness. We won’t wander off.”

“I got someone to carve out a few houses in the basement for you to stay in. The place might be a little simple. Please make do for a while. We’re still trying to perfect it.”

“You’re too kind, Your Highness. It’s a great honor for us to live in such a large fortress.”

Bai Di said, “I’m not a prince anymore. You don’t have to call me Your Highness anymore. Just call me by my name.”

Mayne quickly said, “No, no! Your status is so noble. As commoners, how can we call you by your name?!”

No matter what Bai Di said, Mayne refused to call him by his name. In the end, Bai Di had to choose this method.

“You might as well call me ‘Mister’ too.”

Mayne had learned from Huanhuan that ‘Mister’ was also a form of respect, so he nodded and agreed. “Yes, Mister.”
