"We didn't have enough people in the Chi Ban Market … Besides, back then, you weren't one of us yet. We didn't let our people in the Chi Ban Market know that you were captured as soon as possible." Song Gu quickly explained.
"Back then, we had less than a hundred people in the Chi Ban Market, with such little power, even if they …"
Song Gu still wanted to explain, but Dragon Pool waved his arm hard and interrupted him, "But my friends who came to save me, there were only four of them! And they were four little human kids, they saved me in the end. "
Dragon Pool bent his body forward, a pair of green flames blazing ragingly in his deep, gigantic eye sockets, lighting up a big half of the jungle. He stared at Song Gu's clone of the tree and said in a deep and strong voice, "They didn't know that I was captured, but they arrived. They fought against powerful enemies, they saved me!"
Slapping hard on the tree trunk, Dragon Pool responded with a muffled voice, "They are human beings, not my kind yet. They have the marks of treemen, they are my friends. I am with them, good. "
"Not good!" Song Gu growled out in a deep voice, "Treemen, you should stay with treemen. We are spirit creatures, they are human beings. They are not our kind, they only know how to use you, they will never treat you as one of their own! "
A branch of the clone of the tree reached over, grabbed Dragon Pool's body and said, "Dragon Pool, join us, become my follower. I can protect you, not only you, but also your friends. We can protect you, we won't use you, we won't hurt you! "
"Hm!" Dragon Pool let out a heavy breath of cold air and said, "Become your follower? No! "
Every Tree Spirit was a spirit of the forest. No matter if it was an old Tree Spirit or a young Tree Spirit, they were all equal existences. They were all the children nurtured by the forest. They took root in the soil, absorbing sunlight, starlight, rain, dew, and frost, growing freely.
This yearning for freedom was the most instinctive imprint in the deepest part of every old treeman's soul. Making Dragon Pool Song Gu's follower? How could that be possible?
Slowly turning around, Dragon Pool prepared to leave with big steps. While walking, he murmured, "I like staying with Ji Hao and Man Man … Especially Man Man, she always reminds me of Big Cat when I was little."
Dragon Pool tapped the leopard's head with a twig and said with a silly smile, "I don't really like the others, but I like being with these four little guys."
"You will regret this!" Song Gu roared out in rage while a few branches suddenly reached out and coiled around Dragon Pool's trunk.
The leopard let out a raging roar, then fiercely scratched with its sharp claws, breaking Song Gu's branches one after another. After that, the leopard showed its tusks and let out a large sphere of smoke and fire towards Song Gu's clone. The bark of Song Gu's clone began burning ragingly, soon turning him into a huge torch.
Tens of thousands of miles away, in a lush primitive forest. This forest, which extended for nearly ten-thousand miles, was a rare, large forest in the Chi Ban Mountain area, which was a place with only a few plants.
In the core area of the forest, tens of over a hundred zhang tall treemen stood in a circle, releasing strong spirit creature power vibrations from their bodies. At the moment, they were gasping quickly while looking at a thirty-mile tall iron-bone dragon skin pine tree, which was surrounded by them. This ancient tree, which had thick branches and luxuriant leaves, was Song Gu's real body.
"Bastards! How dare they attack my clone?!" Song Gu's gigantic hand, which was almost the same size as a human arm, smashed heavily on the ground.
Boom! The forest quaked intensely. Countless towering trees swayed, and countless flowers and grasses vibrated. Dark-green mist spurted out from the trees and grasses, swiftly waving in the air like sharp blades.
"That little guy, who showed up suddenly, refused my kindness." Song Gu dropped his hand and said in a deep voice, "Damn it! Those few idiots who bumped into him in the forest and pointed him out the existence of the Chi Ban Market, I'm going to dig their eyeballs out! "
"They didn't even recognize that Dragon Pool is a purple grain dragon sandalwood, how unforgivable!" Song Gu complained, "We have so many friends, but most of them are ordinary pine trees and willows. Their bodies are too weak, and they can't possibly make any great achievements."
Song Gu slightly opened his eyes, within which, two spheres of light that looked like burning molten iron had been swiftly rotating. He then snorted coldly and said, "Purple grain dragon sandalwood … not to mention how valuable its sap and fruits are …"
"But what I want is exactly his sap and fruits." A clear and cold voice came from above Song Gu's head. On an extremely thin branch above his head, a beautiful phoenix with multicolored feathers quietly stood there.
Slightly shaking all of its feathers, the phoenix transformed into the phoenix girl who had talked to the dragon-kind leader in the Chi Ban Market.
She sat on Song Gu's branch, lowered her head and looked at those old treemen, who had formed a circle around Song Gu, and said seriously, "His sap and fruits are not very useful to the humankind, but to our phoenix, they are extremely valuable."
"But he is now following the humankind!" Song Gu complained, "Feng Qi, although I am …"
"You are the king of all treemen in the Chi Ban Mountain area and the surrounding area!" Feng Qi interrupted Song Gu and said, "But you have to understand, if it weren't for the protection of our phoenix-kind, you would have been like those treemen who were captured by those non-humankind beings, transformed into mindless walking corpses, and turned into their battle puppets."
"Therefore, you have to find a way to get that little guy to me." Feng Qi smilingly looked at Song Gu and said, "Our phoenix-kind doesn't like to use violence, we like to solve problems with wisdom. Look at those idiots who tried to show off their power, all of them had to go back with broken horns and beards, while I am perfectly unharmed, and am still here talking to you. "
"Wisdom?" Song Gu popped out his eyes in distress. Even though he was the king of treemen, Song Gu couldn't find a way to deal with Dragon Pool with his wisdom.
Looking at Song Gu, who was distressed, Feng Qi helplessly sighed, then took out a yellow-colored piece of soil.
"Tell Dragon Pool, if he is willing to join you, you will give him a piece of pre-world earth essence, which can help him grow and transform faster." Feng Qi fiddled with the piece of soil in her hand, which had been releasing a strong sense of power, and said slowly, "Tell him, if he is willing, he can become your deputy, and you will give him a piece of tree-heart of the ancient Green Emperor."
Song Gu looked at Feng Qi in shock and said, "Is he worth that much? Bastard! "
Song Gu was extremely jealous.
"To our phoenix-kind, a purple grain dragon sandalwood is truly worth that much." Feng Qi sighed slightly and said, "Shame, shame, we didn't know that such a treasure was hiding in this place, otherwise, we would have done it long ago."
Tens of thousands of miles away, Song Gu's clone, who was still burning fiercely, said with a muffled voice, "Dragon Pool, a piece of pre-world earth essence, you can become my deputy, the second treeman king of all treemen in the Chi Ban Mountain area and the surrounding area."
"Abandon the humankind and come back to us, I will give you a piece of tree-heart of the ancient Green Emperor." Song Gu growled out in jealousy.
