Chapter 455 News of Safety Spreads
The clothes given by the Mother Tree were themselves formed from the convergence of energy. His body was annihilated, but the energy was gone. When his body was reconstructed, the clothes were also reconstructed.
The clothes he's wearing now are formed from concentrated energy, bearing his own imprint from the inside out.
The Kunling people who remained on the mountain peak watched Lezhi straighten his appearance in silence, and no one dared to approach him to speak.
When Lei Xiu and his two companions arrived, Le Zhi had already tidied up, while the clansmen looked at each other in bewilderment.
The two sides were clearly separated, with Lezhi and Jelly Frog forming their own barrier.
The others gathered together, barely daring to breathe, like a flock of bullied little quails.
The atmosphere was strangely tense.
As soon as Lei Xiu landed, he ignored everyone else and went straight to Le Zhi. "Zhi Zhi, ... are you hungry? I have some food here. Do you want to eat something first?"
While asking the questions, his eyes subtly scanned up and down.
—As always, her hair was styled in an exquisite braid, adorned with vines.
The materials appear to be different, with many subtle patterns added to the details of the robe.
The gemstones used as decorations on the buttons and belts are no longer just emerald green, but also include turquoise, golden yellow, and dark black with a blood-red hue.
The colors of the clothing have become more complex, but the styles remain simple and elegant, adding a touch of maturity to Lezhi.
On both sides of the earlobes, there are vines and mushrooms, as well as a cross pendant, seemingly nothing unusual.
Let Lei Xiu scrutinize her, and then stare at her intently for a while. After a long pause, Le Zhi nodded indifferently.
"Sure, what's there to eat?"
The beautiful and melodious voice, like pearls falling onto a jade plate, echoed in everyone's ears, making them feel dazed.
This was the first time Lezhi had spoken in front of everyone since escaping danger; it was just a casual remark, yet it sounded like celestial music.
Not far away, Sixu Snow, surrounded by his clansmen, and everyone around him, all those affected by the sound, froze simultaneously.
It was an indescribable feeling, as if the world had suddenly become quiet and my mind had been forcibly cleared.
The air was suddenly silent.
Unaware of the change in her voice, she simply turned around and sat down on the large rock, waiting for Lei Xiu to feed her.
Once seated and looking up, he realized that Lei Xiu was still standing there without moving, and glanced at him with a questioning look.
"what happened?"
One stone caused a thousand waves.
The barrier was broken, and a chorus of sighs and breaths filled the air, followed by various discussions.
Lei Xiu gave Si Xu a warning look, and seeing that he had already begun to suppress the demonstrators, he quickly stepped forward to block Le Zhi's view.
"Coming right away. I made extra food while you were away the other day. I made your favorite braised pork, spicy stir-fried mixed mushrooms, deep-fried pork, and salt and scallion pan-fried pork. I also cooked rice. Oh, and do you want some hard rice cakes? I'll start steaming some now, it'll be quick. I'll also make a soup."
The space preservation function is powerful. Even if these dishes have been left for almost two days, they look almost the same as when they were just cooked. Most importantly, you don't have to wait and you can eat them immediately.
While reciting the names of the dishes, Lei Xiu took out a far greater variety of dishes than he had mentioned and placed them in front of Le Zhi.
How much has he done?
but…
"Yes." Why not eat it if it's free? There's nothing wrong with the food.
Without standing on ceremony, I took the bowl and chopsticks and immediately began to eat heartily.
Every now and then, I would get distracted and feed the furball a bite.
While Lezhi was enjoying an immersive meal, Sixu was busy calming the team members who had just recovered from their confusion and were becoming a little restless.
"Hey, tell me, what's going on with Lezhi?"
After calming down the team members' emotions, Si Xu suppressed his inner turmoil. Snow had been looking thoughtful since earlier. Had he discovered something?
Faced with his friend's curiosity, Snow didn't keep him in suspense.
"I'm thinking about the Phantom Sound Clan..."
"what?"
"Lezhi's voice just now reminded me of the Phantom Sound Clan."
They are extremely similar, especially in their ability to deceive people; there is no doubt about that.
"But he's a member of the Spirit Feather Clan!"
—Otherwise, if he is a member of the Phantom Sound Clan, then what's the point of discussion?
Snow really wanted to roll his eyes.
I have no idea how my friend became the squad leader; he seems to never use his brain.
"You said before that you saw Lezhi's second form by the Red River..."
There was nothing else Snow could do but offer a subtle hint while observing Si Xu's expression. Seeing that Si Xu suddenly understood, Snow then raised his hand and patted his friend's shoulder.
"Alright, that's not our concern. The important thing is to keep the team in check and figure out how to minimize the impact on them. ... Also, as a friend, I suggest you don't ask questions you shouldn't ask! If you really don't know what to do, go ask the clan leader."
Leaving his advice, Snow propped himself up and walked toward Lezhi.
Regardless, Lezhi was a guest whom the clan had extended their invitation to, so they couldn't be neglected.
"Lezhi, Leixiu, is there anything I can help you with?"
With his thick skin and the fleeting friendship he cultivated along the way, he successfully integrated, leaving Si Xu alone to ponder deeply.
…………
"The person has been found and is alright... That's good. Be careful on the way back and don't cause any trouble... Don't ask any other questions, we'll talk about it when we get back."
Finally receiving news of their escape from danger, a huge weight was lifted from my heart.
After hanging up with Si Xu, Si Yi continued communicating, informing the rescue team to withdraw and informing all the tribes he had harassed.
The Lingyu Clan, Hanhai Clan, Lingquan Clan, Huanyin Clan, and Xuanyue were deliberately left until the end.
A cave dweller, standing silently alone in a quiet room.
"...Really? So he's alright... Okay, I understand."
"..."
Without much small talk, Xuan Yue swept away the vines and moved to the window. Gazing at the full moon in the sky, her eyes were calm and still, as if she were lost in thought.
…………
At the same time, in the Daqing Mountains, after a quick meal, Lezhi and his group set off immediately, finding a good place to stay before nightfall.
Some people were sent out to hunt and also to scout out the situation in the nearby woods. Soon, people returned one after another, bringing the latest news.
"We're back."
"How's it going?"
The visitor's expression was not grave, and he was clearly in good condition. Si Xu had already anticipated this before asking any questions, and sure enough, the situation was basically as he expected.
"...The lava flow at Jinyan Peak has subsided and it should not be active again in the short term. Some of the animals that left earlier are still observing, while others have tried to return to their habitats. For the time being, there doesn't seem to be any major problem."
What is this in your hand?
There's nothing seriously wrong, just a few minor issues.
"Hehe," the team member chuckled, but his words were quite ruthless, "We saw it fighting with other insects on the patrol, so we mediated and now we have dinner sorted out for tonight."
It seems that the mediation he mentioned isn't about helping to resolve the issue, but rather about directly addressing the root cause of the problem.
Okay, how can this not be considered a solution?
Si Xu personally delivered dinner ingredients to Lei Xiu and the others. One side dared not ask, and the other did not want to say. They achieved a tacit understanding of pretending not to know, and their relationship was exceptionally harmonious.
Dinner passed peacefully. Ye Lisi personally kept watch, and the Kunling tribesmen tacitly surrounded Lezhi's tent in the middle to prevent any accidents from happening as much as possible.
The location of the tent was not a problem for Lezhi, nor was it a problem for Leixiu to live there.
He could leave quietly at any time if he wanted, but there was no need for it.
He can do whatever he wants, anywhere.
The fur ball nestled close to its neck, its steady breathing indicating that it had drifted off to sleep.
Having been engulfed by lava didn't leave too much of a shadow on Maoqiu. Fortunately, it didn't, otherwise, he would have had to settle another score.
A sharp glint flashed in his deep eyes. Ignoring Lei Xiu lying not far away, Le Zhi directly lowered his palm and pressed it against the ground.
The energy was transmitted through the palms, and in the far-off Earth's core, a sudden and inexplicable tremor arose, causing the roots of the mother tree to loosen.
Not only does the earth have its share of mischievous children, but so does he.
A heavy, mournful cry echoed in my mind. Sensing the plea for mercy within it, I paused the energy transfer, but my hands remained firmly planted on the ground.
Without a reasonable explanation, this matter will not be resolved today.
He and Maoqiu shouldn't suffer in vain.
The meaning of "Joyful Knowledge" was clearly conveyed, but the earth remained vague, only pleading for mercy.
Energy surged again, this time with even greater force, causing the collapse of the Earth's core caves to become more severe, and the underground rivers to surge ceaselessly.
Just then, a gentle breeze sneaked in through the gaps in the tent, brushing past Lezhi's ears and bringing a message from the mother tree.
When they meet again, everything will become clear.
It really was the mother tree's fault!
Having successfully forced out the culprit, and with his goal achieved, Lezhi finally withdrew his hand, and the trembling subsided.
The annihilation of his body did not have a significant impact on Lezhi himself, perhaps because he never felt any sense of impending crisis from beginning to end.
He later reviewed the situation and realized that something was wrong with the whole thing.
It can't be because he has a strong heart, can it?
After much thought, the only explanation is that the mother tree did it on purpose. It deliberately made him go through this ordeal in order to stimulate him to reshape his body.
If his perception is correct, after being reshaped, his control over the earth is far stronger than before, and he also has complete control over wind and water flow.
All of this is inextricably linked to reshaping the body.
He thought of that dream he had before.
The truth, shrouded in mystery, is gradually becoming clearer, awaiting only the right moment...
