Sun Mo unsheathed his sword and stepped in front of Murong Mingyue, looking in the direction of the sound.
There was no reaction from the storm, which meant that the other party had no intention of ambushing them. However, to be able to hide until now and appear so fearlessly, it meant that the other party was very confident and strong.
"You don't have to take care of me!"
Even though she said that, Murong Mingyue was still very happy inside. She felt a little happiness from being cared for.
An old green-skinned native appeared in the library. He wore a cloak woven from various bird feathers, and around his neck was a necklace made from stones, shells, and bones.
His long hair was combed into braids and tied neatly behind his head with a straw rope.
"He seems to be a big shot!"
Sun Mo's gaze landed on the native's walking stick. Other than that, he didn't have any weapons, but he didn't dare to underestimate him.
"You just said that this language is called Sithe? Can you introduce this country to us? "
The native smiled amiably.
"Sorry, I didn't read anything about it."
Sun Mo shook his head.
"Oh!"
The native sized Sun Mo up. "There's no rush. We'll have time to understand in the future anyway. Don't worry, I admire scholars the most. I won't hurt you."
"You are?"
Sun Mo frowned. From the other party's words, it seemed like he wanted to keep them here.
"I'm the elder of the Green Mist Tribe, Mu Feng. Then, the two of you, please eat these two pills!"
As the elder spoke, he took out two cherry-sized pills from his pocket and handed them to Sun Mo.
"Sorry, my mom told me not to eat things given to me by others!"
Sun Mo refused.
"Pfft!"
Murong Mingyue knew that she shouldn't laugh in such a situation, but she couldn't help it. She didn't expect Sun Mo to joke.
"You'd better eat it. Otherwise, I can only beat you to death."
The elder smiled like a kind grandpa next door, but the words he said made one's hair stand on end.
This place was the holy land of the Green Mist Tribe.
Generations of ancestors had warned their descendants to protect everything here. Hence, after the foreign invasion, the Green Mist Tribe strengthened the defenses here.
However, there were too many invaders, and the natives suffered heavy losses, so they could only ask for help.
When Mu Feng arrived, he heard the commotion Sun Mo made in the sewage pipe. Hence, he came over to check it out.
It had originally planned to kill them, but who knew that the two of them seemed to have a map of the Holy Land. They were very familiar with the place as they explored.
And then everything that happened in the library.
When Mu Feng saw that Sun Mo could actually read those books, he was extremely shocked and also wild with joy. One must know that the reason why their family could hold the position of an elder in the tribe for generations was because their ancestors could read a portion of the language and had passed it down.
"If I master all of this knowledge, won't I be able to lead the tribe to glory? Or even counterattack and occupy those foreign nations? "
Mu Feng looked at Sun Mo like he was looking at a huge treasure.
"Let her go first!"
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight.
[Warning! Powerful enemy, please flee immediately!]
Mu Feng sneered.
"You should thank me for my kindness. Otherwise, you would have died and become fertilizer for the flowers."
After saying that, Mu Feng took his walking stick and knocked it hard on the ground.
Bang!
After the sound, it was as if a plant had been awoken from its slumber. The floor beneath Sun Mo and Murong Mingyue's feet suddenly broke, and thorny vines darted out, wrapping around their bodies.
Sun Mo waved his sword!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The vines were slashed and juice splattered. However, even more vines came out and instantly trapped the two of them inside.
"Be obedient and be my slave for life!"
Mu Feng was calm and composed.
"This is bad!"
Sun Mo's scalp turned numb. The enemy was so strong that he didn't even have a chance to retaliate. This was the rhythm of a complete reversal!
Just when Sun Mo was racking his brains, wanting to find a reason to calm Mu Feng down, a large number of bugs suddenly flew out from the surrounding bookshelves. A portion of them pounced toward Mu Feng while a portion of them lay on the vines that were wrapped around Sun Mo and Murong Mingyue. They could be seen with the naked eye, gnawing them clean.
Hua!
A few vines suddenly darted out from Mu Feng's body and weaved into a cage to protect him. After that, the flower buds on the vines instantly bloomed.
Chi!
A gush of green mist spurted out. Those bugs that came into contact with it immediately died.
In an instant, the ground was covered with a dense layer of insects, like a carpet of insects.
"Who are you?"
Mu Feng looked at this old man with a heavy expression.
"I'm just an insignificant old man."
After saying that, the green-robed old man looked at Sun Mo. "You owe me a life. It's not overboard to use 20 years to repay it, right?"
"I don't wish to take you as my master. What's the use of keeping me by your side?"
Sun Mo didn't understand.
"When people interact and become friends, they need a process of understanding each other. I know that my identity as a dark great teacher doesn't sound good, so you instinctively reject me. However, I believe that after interacting with me for a period of time, you will understand my character."
The green-robed old man said sincerely, "Moreover, even if my character isn't good, my knowledge isn't fake. If you are a smart person, you will understand that you won't be at a disadvantage if you follow me."
The green-robed old man only wanted to pass down his legacy. Otherwise, if he died, all his knowledge would be wasted.
"I don't wish to lie to you. I killed Lu Wuyin!"
Sun Mo was still too young. He didn't wish to live on the charity of others.
"..."
The green-robed old man started. After that, a hint of disappointment and sadness flashed on his face. However, it turned into gratification in the end.
"You being able to kill Wuyin proves that my judgment isn't wrong. You are a genius worthy of being recruited."
The green-robed old man sighed.
"..."
Sun Mo was speechless. After all, he was from the modern era and didn't really understand the green-robed old man's mentality.
However, Mei Yazhi understood that to great teachers, what was more terrifying than death was becoming a nameless person.
Writing books and passing down one's knowledge was the mark of a saint. This was the pursuit of every great teacher.
The green-robed old man naturally felt regretful for his student's death. However, if he could obtain an even more talented student, he could accept it.
"If I didn't guess wrongly, you should have used some botany knowledge to kill Wuyin, right?"
The green-robed old man sniffed. "You should have some peak-grade medicinal herbs on you, right?"
"Mn!"
Sun Mo didn't deny it.
The green-robed old man smiled and suddenly stomped on the ground.
BOOM!
The ground caved in by an inch and a large amount of wood shavings flew out from the cracks.
This was the vines that Mu Feng had released in preparation for a sneak attack. However, it was seen through.
"Native, let's go out and fight. Don't damage these books."
The green-robed old man said and rushed toward Mu Feng.
One couldn't help but say that this elder of Dark Dawn was indeed tyrannical. He caused the entire floor to sink, but the bookshelves weren't damaged at all. Not even a single book fell.
Hmph!
Tens of vines shot out from Mu Feng's body and whipped toward the green-robed old man. At the same time, there was another one that went to capture Sun Mo. As for Murong Mingyue, given his strength, he couldn't care about her anymore.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Sun Mo held his sword and slashed continuously, feeling that it was quite strenuous. However, very soon, Mu Feng also retracted this vine and focused on dealing with the green-robed old man.
"The opponent is a half-step saint. In our Nine Provinces, he is an expert second only to the saints. How can you be distracted? How much do you look down on him?"
Murong Mingyue mocked.
Actually, this sentence was hinting to the native elder to use his full strength and ignore them.
Mu Feng didn't need Murong Mingyue to say it. The moment he fought, he understood that this was the strongest opponent he had ever met in his life.
"Oh right, in our Nine Provinces, there are still many powerful teachers like him!"
After Murong Mingyue said this, Mu Feng used his ultimate move. He was the only two high-end combat power of the Green Mist Tribe, so he definitely couldn't be wasted here.
"We need to make use of the terrain to create an opportunity for our side to have an advantage in military strength. We definitely can't fight one-on-one."
Mu Feng used his ultimate move to scare the green-robed old man away. However, who knew that the green-robed old man was from Dark Dawn and wasn't afraid of head-on battles.
"Let's go!"
Sun Mo and Murong Mingyue retreated. The two of them knocked over the surrounding bookshelves at the same time. For a moment, books flew everywhere.
"Bastard!"
The elder was furious, but his vines still shot out to catch those books.
The green-robed old man's Gu also flew toward those books. After catching them, he placed them on the bookshelves.
Sun Mo and Murong Mingyue used this opportunity to escape.
After running crazily for 15 minutes, the two of them stopped.
"What a sin!"
Murong Mingyue blamed herself. She was also a book lover.
"So what if I can't get it?"
Sun Mo was very realistic. The green-robed old ancestor had said that he had saved him, but that wasn't true. As long as he could grasp the Sithe language, that elder definitely wouldn't be willing to kill him.
"What should we do next? Leave? "
Murong Mingyue was conflicted. It was dangerous for her to reap some benefits now, but when the Holy Gate, Dark Dawn, and the natives were done fighting, she might not even have the chance to reap some leftovers.
"Let's find An Xinhui and the others and leave together."
Sun Mo looked at the map and discovered that it wasn't far away from here. There was another building complex and he was preparing to head there to search. However, after he walked through two corridors, he encountered the famous school group from the Virtuous Academy.
"Teacher Sun?"
Lu Qiushi cupped her fists and looked behind him. She was a little surprised. "Where are your students?"
"I didn't let them come."
Sun Mo glanced over. There were a total of 25 people in Lu Qiushi's group. They should be the main force of this famous school.
"Teacher Sun still loves his students so much!"
Lu Qiushi complimented, "With your strength, you must have gained something, right?"
"Just a small profit!"
Sun Mo replied humbly, "I won't disturb everyone anymore."
After Sun Mo spoke, he continued on his way.
"What should we do? Sun Mo's target seems to be that herb garden as well! "
Li Fenghua frowned.
"We can't possibly kill him, right?"
Lu Qiushi felt depressed. "Moreover, we won't be able to win against him!"
"We can attack him together!"
A male great teacher suddenly interjected, speaking the words of the pearl.
"Forget it."
Lu Qiushi was the grandson of the Virtuous Academy's headmaster. His family was very big and he didn't dare to make enemies recklessly.
"But wouldn't it be letting him off too easily by just giving him one share?"
Li Fenghua felt depressed.
Their team had already ascertained that it was a herb garden. Hence, they sent out a signal for everyone to gather and head over to harvest the harvest.
"Maybe Sun Mo doesn't know that place!"
Lu Qiushi's ambition wasn't great. She knew that given the school's strength, even if they were to rise to the 'B' grade this year, they might still drop next year. Hence, it was fine as long as they could maintain their grade.
What was left was to try their best to get more valuable items.
Everyone prayed, but what they were afraid of came true. Sun Mo didn't hesitate and headed straight for that herb garden. This time, Lu Qiushi couldn't sit still anymore. She hurriedly led her group and chased after him.
"Teacher Sun, please wait!"
Lu Qiushi called out.
"Teacher Lu, what can I do for you?"
Sun Mo had actually guessed it.
"That..."
Lu Qiushi was an honest person and was embarrassed to say it. However, Li Fenghua didn't mince her words. "Teacher Sun, the herb garden in front was discovered by us first."
"Then what are you guys doing here?"
Murong Mingyue's hidden meaning was very simple. Since you guys discovered it, why don't you go and harvest it?
"Our scout is already there."
Li Fenghua explained.
"What a coincidence. Our scout is also there."
Murong Mingyue's heart stirred. She controlled the scout puppet to wait in the herb garden.
"Teacher Sun, you are also someone with status. Why do you have to be like this?"
Someone criticized.
"Do you guys know what's in the herb garden? If there isn't anything valuable, don't you guys feel that it's a loss if we quarrel and sour our relationship? "
Sun Mo's words had the meaning of preaching. Moreover, he sounded high and mighty.
However, even Li Fenghua didn't deny it. Because given Sun Mo's reputation, he was indeed a great teacher that many people didn't want to offend.
"Forget it, stop arguing. Let's go to the herb garden first!"
Lu Qiushi became the peacemaker.
Sun Mo shrugged and turned to leave.
"Brother Lu, your personality is too soft."
Li Fenghua grumbled.
"Little sister, as great teachers, we should work together sincerely and prioritize teaching our students. We shouldn't prioritize our own benefits."
Lu Qiushi was still thinking of letting Sun Mo come to the school to be a guest teacher for a month.
Bzz!
Priceless Advice erupted because these were Lu Qiushi's true thoughts.
Murong Mingyue turned her head and pouted. "He's a good person!"
"Good people don't live long!"
Sun Mo planned to walk one round. If An Xinhui wasn't there, he would leave. As for snatching the secret treasures? With the teleportation gate, he really wasn't in a hurry.
This building complex should be called a botanical garden instead.
Hence, other than herbs, there were also a large number of unknown plants. Clearly, they were transplanted and cultivated by the Sithe.
Even with Sun Mo's knowledge, there were many plants that he didn't recognize.
"They are all unknown species of darkness. We've struck it big this time."
Li Fenghua was very excited.
After researching these plants thoroughly, she could publish a book. Moreover, she would definitely become a bigshot great teacher in the field of botany.
"Why isn't Sun Mo excited?"
Lu Qiushi was puzzled.
"Yeah, I heard that he's a grandmaster in botany."
Li Fenghua frowned as well.
"Could it be that he can recognize all these plants?"
Lu Qiushi thought of a possibility.
"What joke are you playing?"
Li Fenghua rolled her eyes. "Even a grandmaster in botany wouldn't be able to recognize these plants that he has never seen before. Let's go and discuss with him on how we should distribute them."
Sun Mo truly wasn't excited. The plants here were definitely planted for research or medicinal purposes. This meant that the Sithe had a very deep understanding of them. There would surely be relevant information in the library.
"Teacher Sun, can we discuss this?"
Lu Qiushi squeezed out a smile.
"No need. You guys go ahead. I'll leave after walking one round."
Sun Mo's words caused the teachers and students of the Qiu Family to be stunned.
"What do you mean?"
Li Fenghua blinked. "It can't be a trap, right?"
No matter how she thought about it, Sun Mo shouldn't be so generous.
"As expected, Sun Mo already recognizes these plants!"
Lu Qiushi sighed ruefully.
"No, I have to get to the bottom of this!"
Li Fenghua quickly caught up to Sun Mo. But just when she opened her mouth, she saw Sun Mo slashing his sword over.
