”That's not right, Mo Ye You've been following me the whole time, so you should like the foods that I like For example, beer” Zhou Yu wore a serious expression, as if he would get mad if Mo Ye didn't do as he said He cracked open a can of beer and indicated for Mo Ye to come closer ”Open your mouth”

Like an obedient child, Mo Ye opened his mouth Zhou Yu quickly poured the beer inside Mo Ye face scrunched up and he spat out aZhou Yu all over his face

Zhou Yu wiped away the beer on his face and looked at Mo Ye

Mo Ye seeain, and he scooted back until he reached the edge of the table He looked up at Zhou Yu with innocent and woeful eyes

Zhou Yu looked back at hi i Mo Ye the watermelon disappeared in his icy countenance

A dozen seconds later, Zhou Yu was still expressionless

Mo Ye started to panic, and although he was afraid that Zhou Yu was angry, he slowly inched closer to hie Zhou Yu's shoulder Zhou Yu ignored hi himself into Zhou Yu's lap, but Zhou Yu only turned his head to the side

Mo Ye whi

But Zhou Yu knew Mo Ye, and he knew that Mo Ye was acting pitiful instead of actually crying Zhou Yu was about to stand up and leave on purpose, knowing that Mo Ye would definitely follow hi very funny

But he didn't expect that Mo Ye would pounce and bowl him over

Zhou Yu's eyes widened in shock For ahunted by Mo Ye!

Mo Ye's body was both graceful and brih the boundaries of the world, he charged into Zhou Yu's horizons

Zhou Yu thought he was prepared for it, as he had always had abnormally fast reaction tier than what Zhou Yu could withstand, and he was fiercely pinned down to the floor

Zhou Yu though his spine would break fro to wrap it around him so that when he fell, he didn't feel any pain

For the first time, Zhou Yu was stunned He looked into Mo Ye's eyes until Mo Ye also looked down and used his little tongue to lick hi that Mo Ye was being possessive over hiet up, Mo Ye! Get up!” He finally ed to raise a hand and pat Mo Ye on the back

He realized then that Mo Ye had truly grown up When his body was fully extended, he looked like a little leopard that was not yet an adult, but no longer a baby

Mo Ye did not release Zhou Yu He turned his face to the side and rubbed against Zhou Yu's cheek, as if he was saying, ”Are you stillup!”

Zhou Yu helplessly shook his head He rubbed the soft fur on Mo Ye's back and whispered, ”You little du you How could I be ot off of his folded again, Zhou Yu suddenly realized that he had once again formed another connection to this world

”Okay, okay! Let's go back!”

When Zhou Yu turned to leave for the dining hall, he found Wu Yun looking at the out of his mouth

”Zhou Yu, have you realized that our little Mo Ye is all grown up? He's no longer the little kid that anyone could bully” Wu Yun sighed senti as you know”

The implication of his words was that Wu Yun bullied Mo Ye ed Mo Ye as they laid down in his capsule roo for someplace else tomorrow…”

Zhou Yu paused A few seconds later, when Mo Ye did not hear him continue, he used his head to bu to is Night Spirit Island”

That na special to Mo Ye; heto play at the park tomorrow” and looked at Zhou Yu with excited eyes After all, the base was suffocating for Mo Ye

”Do you knohat Night Spirit Island is?”

Mo Ye shook his head, then scratched his face with a paw

”I'ht spirit race, understand?”

Mo Ye didn't nod or shake his head, as if he was asking, ”And?”

”A long tiht spirits died out But before that, the night spirits were the servants of a powerful S rank organisanism, and it cared for you in return But for soht Spirit Island toet there, you'll be able to hear the words of your ancestors They can pass onto you what they once experienced, and you…”

What path will you take then?

”Hrrn?”

Mo Ye was unhappy that Zhou Yu was spacing out again, so he used his paw to lightly pat hi out of his daze, Zhou Yu pinched Mo Ye's face with his fingers He looked like he was joking, but his tone was serious, ”No matter what you hear or see, you have to remember what you want to become You decide your own fate, understand?”

”Hnn” Mo Ye looked at Zhou Yu with his large aed Mo Ye and laid down Mo Ye reached out a paw and rested it on Zhou Yu's face, which Zhou Yu waved off Mo Ye put his paw back on Zhou Yu's face and Zhou Yu laughingly brushed it off again Finally, Mo Ye gotZhou Yu

”Fine, fine, you're so cranky I'll let you put your paw here, okay?”

Zhou Yu searched for Mo Ye's little paw and put it on his face Satisfied, Mo Ye finally turned back around

Wu Yun sat facing Zhou Yu

Wu Yun gri…”

”Shut your Goddamn mouth” Zhou Yu had to shut down Wu Yun first before his prophetic tongue could doo this ti beside Wu Yun said

”What's different about it?” asked Wu Yun

”It's equipped with sonar If an airborne creature tries to attack us, then it will be hit with a sound wave capable of rupturing its organs”

”How coy before?”

”It's still being tested”

”What? Using trial tech during an inment like this…? I can only say that…”

Zhou Yu cut hiain ”Shut your Goddamn mouth”

Wu Yun scowled then turned to the researcher beside him ”Are you new? I've never seen you around before, what's your name?”

”You can call me Xiao Chen”

Xiao Chen and Wu Yun shook hands, but Xiao Chen's hand paused as it waspast Zhou Yu because Zhou Yu appeared so

However, Xiao Chen's eyes were glued to Mo Ye, as crouched on Zhou Yu's legs His eyes reflected both apprehension and curiosity

It was Mo Ye's first ti in a helicopter, and he looked nervous He kept his head buried the entire tiht it was funny and poked Mo Ye's butt, ”Hey, brat, are you getting lare at Wu Yun

Xiao Chen showed an expression of surprise, ”T-That's a night spirit?”

”Yup Isn't it ugly-cute?” laughed Wu Yun

”That's an A rank organisry, then we'll all die!” Xiao Chen was terrified

”What? That little thing's never beenthat, Wu Yun went to tug on Mo Ye's wings

That really pissed Mo Ye off and he sent a death glare at Wu Yun, posing like he was going to bite hihed, ”Haha! Are you a kitten? You don't even have teeth yet!”

Zhou Yu was speechless He was more clear than anyone about whether Mo Ye had teeth or not

”Bite him,” said Zhou Yu

Mo Ye actually chomped down on him, and Wu Yun couldn't shake hiot deeper into the clouds, the lanced off to the side and out the , trying tooutside

”What is it, Wu Yun?”

”Look… what is that?”

Zhou Yu followed his line of sight and saw so enormous that spiraled upward into the heavens A strealistened under the sunlight

Because it was too far away, they couldn't see it clearly

But no ht than the tower of Babylon

”Yeah, what is that?” Xiao Chen squinted to see better

Countless possibilities flashed by Zhou Yu'sholy and reverent from Elpis's memories

”That's the first ancestor of all plants, Yanism,” said Zhou Yu

”What did you say… the first ancestor? How come I've never heard of it in the research center?” Xiao Chen looked confused

”Of course you've never heard of it… You've never even seen it before”

When their helicopter turned at an angle, the colossal tree vanished
