From Fei Ye and Mo Yu's point of view, although little Lin Tong had interacted with Lin Feng and his disciple previously, it shouldn't have been long. Even if they had some feelings for each other, it shouldn't be able to overcome the attachment of blood relatives.
Little Lin Tong had an extraordinary background and was nurtured into a spirit by the Wutong Tree Heart. Although she was young and ignorant, she was extremely talented and could clearly sense the closeness between her and the other divine Wutong trees and the Phoenix Clan.
Therefore, Fei Ye and Mo Yu were very confident that they could convince little Lin Tong to return to Infinite Wilderness Vast Land with them.
Especially when they saw little Lin Tong's ignorant look as if she didn't know what was going on, Fei Ye and Mo Yu's mood became even better.
Looks like the Master of Xuan Gate and his disciple didn't tell her what happened in advance, so they definitely wouldn't have instilled thoughts in advance to affect her judgment. Mo Yu thought, If that's the case, this Master of Xuan Gate is also a rather magnanimous person. He disdains doing such petty tricks.
Fei Ye had the same thought, This trip was finally worthwhile. It's naturally for the best if we can avoid a conflict with Xuanmen Tianzong.
As they thought about it, the two phoenixes explained the purpose of their visit to little Lin Tong.
Lin Tong nestled in Xiao Yan's embrace and sucked on her fingers as she asked, "After I go to Infinite Wilderness Vast Land, can I still return to the mountain?"
Fei Ye smiled without saying anything, while Mo Yu also smiled and looked at Lin Tong. "Of course you can."
"After returning to the Wutong Forest, we won't restrict your freedom. You can come out to relax, but for your safety, we'll escort you."
Fei Ye nodded and thought, She's been together with the Master of Xuan Gate and his disciple for a period of time after all. It's normal for her to have some feelings for him. This child is very good.
As they thought about it, they suddenly noticed that little Lin Tong's expression was a little off. Her smile disappeared and her delicate brows gradually furrowed. She interrupted Mo Yu with a childish voice, "You mean, I'll be staying at your side for a long time and can only come back to see Daddy and Grandpa occasionally?"
"Of course, the Wutong Forest is your home after all." Fei Ye and Mo Yu didn't react at first, but they suddenly noticed the main point in Lin Tong's words and couldn't help but be stunned. "Daddy and … Grandpa?"
At this time, Lin Tong was already shouting, "If that's the case, I don't want it!"
"I'm not going with you!" Lin Tong stretched out her chubby arms and hugged Xiao Yan's neck. "I want to live with Daddy and Grandpa!"
Xiao Yan was half distressed and half dotingly rubbed her little head. "I've told you many times that I'm your godfather, not your father."
He turned to look at the other side and saw that Fei Ye and Mo Yu's expressions were as if they had swallowed a dead rat.
Fei Ye took a deep breath and looked at Lin Tong, then at Lin Feng and Xiao Yan, "This child wasn't born naturally, but was nurtured by your esteemed master and disciple?" He quickly understood the reason behind this and immediately felt a headache coming on.
Lin Feng lightly said, "This little guy is pure and innocent. I hope the two of you won't blame him for his rudeness."
Fei Ye and Mo Yu nodded helplessly. This time, they really didn't know what to do.
If the Wutong Tree's Heart did not have its own consciousness, it would be treated as an object. Whether it was Fei Ye or Mo Yu, according to their morals, it was natural for them to retrieve something that they had lost.
However, the Wutong Tree's Heart had its own consciousness and turned into a spirit monster. It was an independent life with its own thoughts, so it could no longer be regarded as someone's possession.
Of course, if it was someone else, they could disregard Lin Tong's wishes and directly force her, but that was clearly not what the Phoenix Association would do.
Even if they really wanted to do it, Lin Feng was still standing there. If they had the guts to behave atrociously on Jade Capital Mountain, they would be annihilated at any moment.
'It's one thing for the little girl to go with you willingly, but it's another if she dared to snatch it from you.'
Fei Ye and Mo Yu looked at little Lin Tong gloomily and were somewhat speechless. If Lin Tong was born naturally from the Wutong Tree's Heart, then the relationship between her and Lin Feng as master and disciple was at most the relationship they had during this period of time together.
Children were ignorant. Although they were easily bewitched, they could still make a decision when faced with the natural bloodline relationship between the Wutong Tree's clan and the Phoenix Clan.
Unfortunately, Lin Tong was not born naturally. Instead, she was nurtured and enlightened by Lin Feng and Xiao Yan respectively. Only then did she develop her consciousness and turn into a spirit monster.
In her mind, Lin Feng and his disciple were the closest elders and blood relatives. They were the people closest to her psychologically, whereas the Phoenix and the Wutong Tree were ranked second.
Whether it was birth or nurturing, Lin Feng and his disciple had priority over the Wutong Tree's clan and the Phoenix Clan in Lin Tong's mind.
This immediately made Fei Ye and Mo Yu feel conflicted. They did not want to force Lin Tong, but the goal of this trip was to bring Lin Tong back to the Wutong Tree Forest in Infinite Mainland.
However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not persuade Lin Tong to go back to Infinite Mainland with them.
Let alone staying for a long time, the little girl was not willing to go even if it was just a short trip. She hugged Xiao Yan's neck tightly and looked at the two Phoenixes with vigilance. She looked like she was looking at two human traffickers who were about to abduct a little girl.
Fei Ye and Mo Yu felt like crying when they saw Lin Tong's gaze.
"Bring Tong 'er over there to play first." Lin Feng opened his mouth and said to Xiao Yan at this time. Xiao Yan nodded his head, coaxing Lin Tong while walking away some distance.
Lin Tong looked at Fei Ye and Mo Yu warily before quickly burrowing back into Xiao Yan's arms. The two Phoenixes did not know whether to laugh or cry when they saw that.
"Tong 'er's meaning is very clear. This is her personal wish, and I will not interfere." Lin Feng said lightly, "The two of you can stay on the mountain for a day or two and try to persuade Tong 'er. But if she doesn't change her mind, then forgive me for not keeping the two of you here."
Fei Ye and Mo Yu fell into silence at the same time. Slowly, Fei Ye said, "In that case, thank you for your magnanimity, Mystic Gate Master. I'm afraid we will have to trouble you for another day."
In the following day, the two Phoenixes tried their best to persuade Lin Tong to go back to Infinite Mainland with them.
At this moment, they no longer hoped that Lin Tong could return to their clan and only hoped that she could go to the Wutong Tree Forest.
However, no matter how much the two of them talked, the little girl just shook her head and refused to agree. It was Fei Ye and Mo Yu's fault for not understanding the situation clearly and speaking too confidently, causing Little Lin Tong to misunderstand that they were plotting to separate her from her grandfather and father.
This made the little fellow completely put the names of the two Phoenixes into the blacklist. Even if the two of them now put their conditions more broadly, and the promises they made were more superior, the little girl would only think that they were deceiving her with flowery words.
Little Tong 'er had now transformed into a revolutionary warrior with an incomparably strong will, tenacious style, and firm stand. No matter what Fei Ye and Mo Yu said, she would not budge at all and would not budge an inch.
Even Lin Feng and Xiao Yan felt distressed when they saw Fei Ye, a dignified Great Sage of the Demon Race, being overwrought with coaxing the child.
"Master, why do they insist on taking Tong 'er back?" Xiao Yan was a little puzzled. He now had some understanding of the Phoenix Race's character and knew that this race despised deceit and hypocrisy. They were even more disdainful to do that.
Since Fei Ye and Mo Yu only promised to take Lin Tong to the Wutong Tree Forest and not to stay there for a long time, then they should be serious and not trying to deceive her with empty words.
But why did they go through so much trouble to take Lin Tong back?
Or perhaps he should ask, why did they want the Wutong Tree Heart?
Lin Feng pondered and said, "I don't know the specific reason, but I'm sure that what they want to do must be done through Tong 'er's help. In this matter, Tong' er is irreplaceable."
"Tong 'er is the Wood Heart born from a female divine Wutong tree. The Wutong tree is the combination of a Wutong tree and a Tong tree. The Wutong tree is a male tree and the Tong tree is a female tree. They grow and age together, and live and die together." He looked at Little Lin Tong and said faintly, "Under what circumstances is Tong' er irreplaceable? There's only one possibility. Something happened to the male Wutong tree that she was born from back then, and they needed the Wutong tree to solve the problem. "
Xiao Yan came to a realization. "Just like the Soaring Snow Plume that Little Junior Brother raised in the Heaven Barren Valley, they only have one partner in life and death. It's the same for the Wutong tree. Every Wutong tree will only have one Wutong tree as its partner in life, and vice versa?"
Lin Feng nodded and did not say anything. He thought to himself, "Without the Wutong tree, the Wutong tree will wither. Since the Wutong tree has lost its Wood Heart, it will naturally wither and die. The Wutong tree might be able to survive with the existence of the Wood Heart."
"However, the Wutong Tree Heart has been lost in the Kun Peng's mystic treasure for ten thousand years. How did the Wutong tree survive these ten thousand years?"
While Lin Feng and his disciple were gossiping, Fei Ye and Mo Yu were on the verge of tears. They talked until their saliva was dry, but Lin Tong still refused to return to Infinite Mainland with them.
Helpless, the two phoenixes could only return to look for Lin Feng.
"Master and disciple, please help to persuade her to return to Infinite Mainland with us," Fei Ye said helplessly. "We'll escort her back after a period of time and won't disturb her for a long time after that," Fei Ye said helplessly.
They initially thought that the two of them could bring Lin Tong away easily. Who would have thought that they would have to ask for Lin Feng's help in the end?
To the phoenixes, asking for help this time was not a matter of course. Instead, they were asking for someone's help and owed them a favor. Fei Ye and Mo Yu were well aware of this point.
However, they could not convince Lin Tong to return to the Wutong forest with them, so they could only look for Lin Feng for help.
Lin Feng's expression was the same as usual and he was not arrogant at all. He merely asked indifferently, "I need to know why you want to bring Tong 'er back to Infinite Mainland."
"Don't worry, master of the Mystic Sect. She won't be harmed at all," Fei Ye said after a moment of hesitation, "It's the Wutong Tree Sovereign who urgently needs her help."
