Chapter 524
The ancient tree died of the scarcity of Spiritual Qi. When it was alive, it consumed all the spiritual Qi of the immortal mountain, which was now barren.
The ginseng chanced to grow up next to the ancient tree, which nurtured the ginseng and helped it transform out of boredom.
After the tree died, the ginseng continued to live. According to the ginseng, no one had set foot on the mountain for tens of thousands of years. After the tree died, the ginseng slept most of the time.
After he got the seed of Tree of Life, Xiao Jinting had a mixed feeling of joy and anxiety.
The Tree of Life died of the scarcity of spiritual Qi. He kept the three divine trees. If he couldn’t afford sufficient spiritual stones, they would wither sooner or later. As a result, he had to earn a lot of spiritual stones.
Xu Muan sensed his anxiety and asked, “Are you okay?”
Xiao Jinting shook his head and said, “I’m okay. I just feel great pressure.”
In his previous life, many people said that raising a kid was stressful. In this world, he not only raised three children but also kept three divine trees. He had to earn a lot of spiritual stones.
Xu Muan smiled and consoled him, “It’s okay. Even if you are not powerful and wealthy, it’s fine.” In fact, he would feel safer if Xiao Jinting was not that excellent and wealthy.
Xiao Jinting held Xu Muan’s hand and said, “I know that you will stay with me no matter what happens.”
After planting the seed of Tree of Life in the space ring, Xiao Jinting took a stroll on the island.
He found that the Tree of Life consumed all the spiritual Qi on the island before it died. As a result, all the other creatures on the island perished. As for the ginseng, it survived because the tree showed some mercy to it. Therefore, Xiao Jinting got nothing except the seed of the Tree of Life from the island. However, he was contented.
…
After Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan disappeared for five years, they came back to Green Cloud Immortal Sect.
They brought back a three-year-old kid.
The cultivators were amazed. Xiao Jinting was blessed. He had a child when he was cultivating.
The child that they brought back was adorable. His name was Xiao Xiaobao.
Xiao Xiaobao was cute, and everyone adored him. On the first day that he came to the sect, he received piles of gifts.
The ginseng didn’t transform completely at first. After it met Xiao Jinting, it improved its appearance according to the face of Xiao Jinting. As a result, he looked like Xiao Jinting. The people were not suspicious of his identity.
At Li Yi’s house.
“Yi, did you hear that Jinting and Muan brought back a child? I was worried if anything bad had happened to them. They turned out to have a baby outside and came back with a toddler.” Xu Lingfeng was jealous. He had tried his best to make Li Yi pregnant but in vain. Although he was content with Muan, he wanted to have more children.
Li Yi looked at him and said, “Who told you that?”
Xu Lingfeng said, “Everyone says so.”
Li Yi glared at him and said sulkily, “Why do you believe them? Why do you make a fuss about it?”
Xu Lingfeng leaned closer to Li Yi and asked with a smile, “Do you have any inside information?”
Li Yi nodded and said indifferently, “Yes. That child is transformed ginseng. It’s not a human. Xiao Jinting and Muan found it overseas.”
Xu Lingfeng rubbed his chin and said, “A transformed ginseng? Isn’t that nutritious?”
Li Yi shook his head and said, “Don’t think about it. It has transformed. Besides, the medical effect of ginseng is not that good.”
Xu Lingfeng said, “How do you know?”
Li Yi answered, “Muan told me.”
Xu Lingfeng said with jealousy, “Why didn’t he tell me about this?”
Li Yi shrugged. “Perhaps it’s because you kidnapped him.”
Xu Lingfeng was speechless.
