"I'm here to help you."
As soon as Ryuga said this, Mustard Hinako's face was filled with disbelief.
"Hmph, I've seen too much of you humans' cunning and treacherous ways. You say you want to help me, but in fact, you have another purpose, right?"
After all, she had wandered the world for thousands of years. At the very least, she still had her guard up. It was not so easy to fool her … No, this was a sincere advice, not a trick.
"Of course."
Ryuga raised her head slightly, showing a matter-of-fact expression.
"If it's not good for me, why should I help you?"
This straightforward answer caused Mustard Hinako to be slightly stunned.
"You must want this very much, right?"
Without waiting for Mustard Hinako to speak, Ryuga took out a very skinny branch from the Gate of Babylon and shook it slightly in front of Mustard Hinako's eyes.
After the branch was taken out, Mustard Hinako's eyes immediately focused on the branch, unable to look away.
If not for the fact that she couldn't beat her, she would have rushed up and snatched it back.
"I can return this to you, but you have to answer me a question."
Ryuga shook the branch in her hand slightly and asked calmly.
"According to my speculation, the reason why you hid the seed of the Tree of Imagination in the Fusang Tree should be to maintain this Anomaly without attracting attention. But in this way, it's better to join forces with Emperor Shihuang. So I don't understand, what's your purpose in doing this?"
Instead of hiding the Tree of Imagination in the Fusang Tree and hiding this from Emperor Shihuang, it was better to tell Emperor Shihuang everything. Then, both sides would join forces to let the Anomaly take root in human history. This way, there would be more hope for her and Xiangyu to be together forever.
However, she had chosen to conceal the matter of the Tree of Imagination. She had even hidden it. After Liu Xia had snatched it away, she immediately came over to launch a sneak attack. Truth be told, Liu Xia could not understand her logic.
"How is it? Can you solve my doubts?"
Ryuga stared at Mustard Hinako and asked her in confusion.
"…"
Mustard Hinako looked at the branch in Ryuga's hand with a flash of disgust in her eyes.
"You humans are really cunning! You clearly have the wisdom of the most intelligent creatures, but you only use it for your own selfish reasons … I don't want the First Emperor to conquer other Anomaly Zones. Are you satisfied with this answer? "
Although she hated this kind of selfish wisdom, she still reluctantly answered for the sake of the branch.
"Why?"
Ryuga tilted her head, feeling that she was beginning to understand her thoughts more and more.
"Let the First Emperor conquer the other Anomaly Zones, and then let the Anomaly Zones become the history of mankind. Then, you can be with Xiangyu forever, right? Why aren't you helping? Instead, you're holding us back? "
"I never said I cared about forever."
Mustard Hinako snorted coldly. Her eyes were still cold, but there was also a hint of sadness in them.
"If the First Emperor goes to the other Anomaly Zones, then Lord Xiang Yu, as the final weapon of the Qin, will have to step onto the battlefield again. Putting aside whether or not he can win against the other Anomaly Zones, I will definitely be separated from Lord Xiang Yu."
"The desire to be together forever is something that only humans with limited time will say. As long as I can be with Lord Xiang Yu, I will be satisfied. It doesn't matter if it's cut off because of this."
Ryuga was slightly stunned.
Mustard Hinako's view had overturned his conjecture.
In her eyes, since it was the most sincere and pure love, it would only be reasonable for it to last forever, right? Such a couple should live until the end of the world.
But Mustard Hinako did not think so. In order not to be separated from Xiangyu, she had even taken the initiative to hide the Tree of Imagination. She did not care about lasting forever, only a moment of peace.
Once the Tree of Imagination was taken out, the First Emperor would understand that there was no future for his world. In that case, he would definitely mobilize his troops to conquer the other Anomaly Zones, hoping to be the final victor.
Mustard Hinako refused to be separated from Xiangyu in the future, so she chose to hide the Tree of Imagination. Even if it led to the end of the world, she and Xiangyu would die, and they could only be husband and wife for a few months, it did not matter.
Now that Ryuga had taken away the Tree of Imagination, Mustard Hinako could not help but worry. In order to prevent the First Emperor from discovering the Tree of Imagination, she had sent the Prince of Lanling to follow Ryuga and try to take the Tree of Imagination back.
"I don't understand. Even if I'm a long-lived species, I can't agree with such values."
Ryuga shook his head. He finally understood why he could not understand Mustard Hinako's thoughts.
As a long-lived species, Mustard Hinako's way of thinking was different from humans. The eternity that humans yearned for was just something ordinary in her eyes. What she yearned for was simple but short-lived happiness.
"However, although I can't agree, it's not like I can't help."
Before Mustard Hinako could flip out, Ryuga quickly spoke.
"No, it's not appropriate to call it help. It's more appropriate to call it cooperation."
Liu Xia said to himself. At the same time, he tossed the branch in his hand up and down, making Mustard Hinako's gaze follow him nervously. She was afraid that he would accidentally release the Tree of Imagination.
"I plan to cut this Anomaly Zone. Not the kind that is naturally cut by the universe. Instead, I'll release the Tree of Imagination and let it grow naturally. Then, I'll cut it down and cut it myself."
At this point, Mustard Hinako's eyes became angry again. She glared at Ryuga with a look that said, 'You're a liar too.'
"Don't worry, I can help you fulfill your wish. Since you don't care about the length of time and only want to be with Xiangyu, I can introduce you to one or even several places. Even if you want to be together forever, it won't be a problem. Don't be in a hurry to refuse because the choice is in my hands now."
Ryuga tossed the branch in his hand again.
"If I give the Tree of Imagination to the First Emperor now, he'll be furious. I don't think I need to say anything more. You and Xiangyu can forget about being together."
"You're shameless!"
Mustard Hinako could not help but curse.
"Whatever you say."
Ryuga snorted noncommittally.
"In order to achieve my goals, I've always been unscrupulous. Don't worry, I'll prepare a few candidates for you. I'm sure you'll be satisfied with one."
“hjb78！ wd8%！ ^ $ab! "
Mustard Hinako cursed at Ryuga. But when she saw that he was as calm as a breeze, she wanted to blow herself up and splatter her flesh and blood all over his face. But when she thought about how she could not beat this guy, she could only admit defeat.
"I need time. I have a deal with the First Emperor. I'll let him study my body. When he's done, he'll give me Lord Xiangyu. I have to wait until that time comes … before I can cooperate with you."
