”Haha, that is so funny! Why would the Qi family even do all this? Their pet pills really were effective, and things would have turned out much better for them if they had instead just come and hired you to do something promotional.” Huangfu Pingqing met with Han Sen to receive her portion of the beast pills they had agreed on. She smiled and continued by saying, ”I'm afraid the price of the pet pills will be significantly reduced now.”
Han Sen shrugged his shoulders and said, ”Yep, and there's nothing I can do now. I'm an easy person to talk to, so I'm perplexed by their hesitation to consult me.”
”If the person in Dong Lin heard you talk like that, he'd be furious!” Huangfu Pingqing said, with the same vibrant smile.
”Well, it doesn't matter to me. I have the goodies, and that's all I ever wanted. Provoking them any further would be unnecessary.” Han Sen couldn't be bothered doing something that would not directly benefit him.
He didn't stay much longer after the event, and after bidding farewell to his mother-and-father-in-law, he returned to camp.
Aside from the beast pills he gave to Huangfu Pingqing, he also received a few exclusive medicines that were not available for sale. After reaching camp, he entered the sanctuary so he could feed some of the new medicine to the silver fox and see if they helped.
Han Sen brought the medicine to Moment Shelter, but was startled to find everyone absent.
He called out for the missing creatures, but he received no response. Believing something bad to have happened, he used his dongxuan aura to scan the area. Eventually, he found them all gathered in the plaza.
”What are you guys doing here?” Han Sen asked, as he ran into the plaza. He saw that Moment Queen, the silver fox, and the rest were in the middle of the plaza observing something.
”There is a tree growing here,” Moment Queen told Han Sen in a strange, captivated tone.
”What is so special about a tree growing? Does its slow-growth make for a fascinating watch?” Han Sen continued walking closer, and as he went he said, ”You guys are super creatures, how can you not know anything about trees? You guys must be dumber than planks.”
Han Sen approached the silver fox and then saw what had caught their attention. A small tree had taken root between the cobblestones.
When Han Sen saw it, he froze. His face looked even worse than the silver fox and Moment Queen's did.
”How... how... how did this tree come to be?” Han Sen struggled to ask, as his trembling finger pointed towards the tree.
The tree was only two feet tall by now, but it was growing healthily. With it being so small, it almost looked like a bonsai.
The entire tree was like perfectly sculpted green jade. Each and every leaf was stunning.
What surprised Han Sen the most was the presence of six fruit growing amongst its leaves.
For fruit to grow on a tree was nothing outstanding, but these weren't your average fruits. They were in the shape of miniature treasure chests. They were gold and adorned with a number of distinct, indiscernible carvings.
The tree was luxurious, and a strong lifeforce crackled from it. It emitted some form of holy aura, which manifested in a white mist that veiled the tree. It was a curious sight.
A green jade tree with golden chests. Whoever saw such a thing would need to pinch themselves.
