629 I Need To Repay My Gratitude
You Xue’s reaction was chilling.
But Huanhuan didn’t want to waste any more time with her and called out the butterfly flowers.
Little Purple led many butterfly flowers and swarmed over, surrounding You Xue.
You Xue kept flapping her wings, trying to fan away all the obstructing butterfly flowers.!!
While she was busy dealing with the butterfly flowers, Little Green darted out and approached You Xue silently. Then, it suddenly wrapped itself tightly around her and threw her to the ground, causing the ground to tremble.
You Xue was tightly bound. No matter how hard she struggled, she could not break free.
Huanhuan placed the conch beside You Xue’s ear.
The sound stored in the conch entered You Xue’s ears.
She heard a gentle woman’s voice say…
“Xue’er, do you remember me?”
The voice was very familiar to You Xue. Involuntarily, she stopped struggling and continued listening.
“I’ve missed you every day since you disappeared. I’m worried you’re suffering out there. I’m worried you’re getting bullied and going hungry…
“I even asked the heavens to let you return safely. It doesn’t matter if they take my life in return.
“I really love you, but I can’t take it anymore. I can’t wait until you come back. Don’t blame me, okay?”
…
Huanhuan couldn’t hear anything from the conch. She could only see that You Xue’s eyes were gradually turning red. The corners of her eyes were glimmering with tears as if she could cry at any moment.
She couldn’t hear what was being said, but Little Brat could.
Little Brat wiped his tears and sighed. “You Xue really has a good mother~”
Huanhuan didn’t have time to grieve with him. Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling were still fighting the red dragon. She had to think of a way to help.
She looked up at the Wisdom Tree in front of her. “Little Brat, can I communicate with it?”
“You can try.”
Huanhuan flapped her wings and flew up. She stopped in front of the Wisdom Tree. When she approached, she realized that there were many thin black threads wrapped around the golden trunk.
They looked very much like a woman’s long hair, but if one looked closely, one would realize that the ‘threads’ were made up of many black bugs. When they were gathered together, they looked like threads from afar.
Huanhuan was very surprised. “The Wisdom Tree has bugs?”
Little Brat was used to this. “It was forcefully pulled out. Its roots must have been injured. Besides, it lives underground all year round. It can’t see the sun nor have access to fresh water and air. It’s normal for it to be infested with bugs.”
Fortunately, the Wisdom Tree was strong. If it were any other ordinary tree, it would have died after so many years.
Huanhuan sympathized. “The Wisdom Tree is so pitiful.”
She reached out with her palm and carefully avoided the small bugs. She gently pressed herself against the trunk and whispered to the Wisdom Tree.
The little bugs immediately crawled toward Huanhuan’s palm.
Seeing this, Eggy immediately flapped her small wings and flew up. She opened her sharp bird mouth and swept away many small bugs with a mouthful.
Under Huanhuan’s surprised gaze, Eggy ate all the bugs in her mouth.
Huanhuan was shocked. She quickly retracted her hand and pulled Eggy into her arms. She scolded anxiously, “Why did you eat the bugs? What if they’re poisonous? Hurry up and spit them out!”
She wanted to pry open Eggy’s beak so that her daughter could spit out the bugs.
But Eggy refused to do so.
She found the little bugs delicious and didn’t want to spit them out.
Not only Eggy but the skullcap also sensed the deliciousness of the bugs. When Huanhuan was not looking, it quietly opened its petals and ate the small bugs on the tree trunk.
When Eggy saw that her favorite delicacies were being snatched away by the skullcap, she was anxious. She struggled to break free from her mother’s hand and flapped her small wings to the side of the tree to quickly eat the bugs.
Huanhuan was very surprised to see Eggy and the skullcap fighting to eat those bugs.
She was worried that Eggy would eat something bad.
In the end, it was Little Brat who calmed her down.
“Don’t worry, these bugs are called shadow ants. They like to attach themselves to high-level trees to absorb nutrients. For other plants and birds, shadow ants are very nourishing delicacies.”
Unexpectedly, not only were these small insects not poisonous, but they were also good for the body.
Huanhuan was surprised, but she was relieved.
She let Eggy and the skullcap eat the bugs and focused on talking with the Wisdom Tree.
It didn’t take long for the Wisdom Tree to respond.
“Aren’t you Divine Wood? Why did you come to the secret dragon continent?” The voice of the Wisdom Tree was thick and deep, like a reliable charming uncle.
“We’re here to look for a friend.”
“Did you find them, then?”
Huanhuan shook her head. “Not yet.”
“Don’t be depressed. You have a lot of time. You can take your time looking. You’ll find them eventually.”
Huanhuan smiled. “Thank you for your comfort.”
Eggy and the skullcap ate all the small insects on the tree trunk. The two little guys then returned to Huanhuan’s side in satisfaction and burped one after another.
Huanhuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at them.
The Wisdom Tree’s voice was relaxed and happy. “Thank you for helping me get rid of the bugs on my body. I feel much better now. In return, I can help you do something.”
Huanhuan had a request. When she heard this, she was delighted.
She pointed to the red dragon not far away. “That guy wants to hurt my family. Do you have a way to deal with him?”
Logically speaking, the Wisdom Tree would not participate in the battle between beasts and dragons.
However, it had just agreed to help Huanhuan. At this moment, Huanhuan made her request. The principled Wisdom Tree could not go back on its word.
“I can’t kill him. I can only trap him for a while.”
Hearing this, Huanhuan quickly said, “As long as you can trap him, we can settle the rest ourselves.”
The Wisdom Tree said, “Wait a moment.”
It shook its branches, and countless golden leaves fell. They pounced on the red dragon like a storm and surrounded him, making him dizzy and unable to see the way ahead.
Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling took this opportunity to swarm forward. Frost, lightning, and fireballs smashed at the red dragon!
The huge red dragon was electrocuted until he lost consciousness. His wings were frozen, and he could not move anymore. His head and neck were burned black by the fireballs. His body was covered in wounds.
He roared angrily at the Wisdom Tree.
“Didn’t you say that you can’t participate in our battle?!”
The Wisdom Tree replied calmly, “I’m sorry, but I needed to repay someone.”
