The tiger became agitated upon hearing this. āMaster, master, do you have an excellent method for us to advance?ā
Feng Jiu let out a chuckle before saying slowly, āYou will know it as time goes on.ā
The tiger took Feng Jiu to where the Longevity Tree was growing. āMaster, thatās the tree.ā The tiger pointed its paw at the tree in front of them while crouching down to let Feng Jiu off.
Feng Jiu raised her eyes to the three or four-meter-tall tree in front of her. āDoes this tree only yield two fruits?ā She wondered, noticing only green leaves. She walked up to the area below the tree, where she could still faintly smell the Longevity Fruitās unique fragrance.
Her brows were furrowed. There was no fruit, but the fragrance lingered. It wasnāt an ordinary fruit tree at all. However, the tree trunk was damaged, the branches and leaves were sparse, and there were dead branches interspersed among the living branches as if they were dying.
The tiger shook its head. āThat, Iām not sure. Perhaps the tree canāt bear fruits. There were only two tiny fruits on the tree when we found it. It was difficult to keep the fruits safe until they were ripe, and then they got stolen. The tree might not live for long.ā
Feng Jiuās hand lightly touched the treeās trunk, and she was about to withdraw it when she heard a soft voice.
āSave me, save meā¦ā
She looked around but saw no one. After listening carefully, she found that the voice seemed to come from the tree. Her heart beat a little faster. āAre you talking?ā she asked, placing one hand against the tree.
āI didnāt say anything!ā The tiger looked at Feng Jiu with doubt.
Feng Jiu ignored the tiger and turned her attention to the Longevity Fruit tree in front of her.
āItās me; please help me! I feel you have a powerful life force. Please help me!ā The sound was soft, and if Feng Jiu didnāt listen carefully, she wouldnāt have heard it.
āHave you turned into a true essence?ā Feng Jiuās eyes glowed.
āI am the tree spirit, but my vital essence is too weak to condense. I can only cling to the Longevity Fruit tree.ā
Feng Jiu pressed her hand on the Longevity Fruit tree and transferred it into her space. The tigerās eyes widened in shock as it saw the scene.
āLetās go!ā Feng Jiu turned to face the tiger and jumped on its back.
The tiger wanted to ask but didnāt know how, so it just walked back to the previous location without saying anything.
āHow are you all doing? Have you got enough rest?ā Feng Jiu stepped down from the tigerās back and walked over to the group of people resting in the treeās shade.
At this point, the two tigers got together, moved to a corner, and put their heads together to talk. No one knew what they were talking about, but they kept looking at Feng Jiu.
āSenior, our Senior Brothersā external injuries have already been well treated and bandaged, but their internal injuries are severe. Iām afraid we wonāt be able to leave for a while.ā The woman with the surname Mu spoke while keeping a cautious eye on Feng Jiu. āSenior, could we stay for a while?ā
Feng Jiu took a look at a few of them. āDid you not bring any pills?ā They had to use internal alchemy in this situation. Internal wounds in the body would heal quickly as long as the person took internal alchemy. It was better than staying put and recovering slowly.
āWeāve already taken the pills, but we wonāt see the effects for some time.ā A man said, āPlease leave first if Senior has other obligations! When we recover, we will leave immediately and return to the Immortal Sect.ā
