Chapter 237 – Escaping From a Calamity (1)

“If you persist with your wrong way by following them, there will no more leaves for you to eat! I will let you starve to death and turn you all into fertilizer!”

The little qilin shivered from fear as the ginseng fruit tree’s voice continued to echo in his mind, “I am only sparing you on the account that you have accompanied me for a millennium. You should know what decision is best for you!”

Abruptly, the little qilin’s ire bursted out. “No, absolutely not! I’m not helping you! You only want me to remain here to use me to water you and give you nourishment! I remember you were only as small as a pine tree when I first came here. Your leaves were shaped like needles, and there were only two fruits, the size of a baby’s fist, hanging from your branches.”

For a short moment, his mind became quiet, but all of a sudden a cold laugh was transmitted. “So what?! I am not the same as I was before. I could survive without you. As for you… without me you won’t even last one month! I’m giving you 15 minutes to decide. If you cannot make up your mind, I will let you die together with them!”

The little qilin didn’t reply for a moment, then he asked, “What do you want to do in the end?”

‘Was it being swayed by my words?’ The ginseng fruit tree was happily thinking inside. “Listen to what I’m going to say. Behind me to the northeast, some red fruits grow there. You will go harvest and give some to them to eat. Tell them that you eat them sometimes.”

“Are the fruits poisonous?”

“There’s no need for you to know. You only need to act according to my instructions. Give them the fruits to eat.”

The little qilin was silent for a moment, then said, “Don’t you have a stronger skill? Don’t you always use your tree roots to deal with me? Why don’t you use the same method with them instead of using poison?”

“Humph! What do you know?! That child is difficult to deal with! His punch had injured me…” The ginseng fruit tree’s tone was filled with rancor. It seemed to realize its slip of tongue, so it quickly changed its tone to an amiable one. “You don’t need to care about this. Just go and do what I told you! After this matter is concluded, I will give you one fruit!”

“Is the red fruit highly toxic? Will the poison kill them?”
