Little Green's Extra Effect! (2nd update)

Seeing Song Jie sit down, Mu Nu Jiao came up to him and said, "Although I don't know what happened just now, thank you for saving me."

Song Jie said, "I'm one of the hunters accompanying you this time. Saving you was only what I should do."

Mu Nu Jiao did not see it that way, so she had already etched Song Jie's kindness into her heart.

At the same time, she was also curious how Song Jie had brought her out, but she suppressed the doubts in her heart and did not ask.

Earlier, Song Jie had asked her to help keep his secret. It was very likely that he did not want others to know.

So Mu Nu Jiao could only let it go. After all, everyone had their own secrets in their heart.

After resting for a while, Uncle Jin had everyone get up and continue toward their destination.

After this crisis, no one was relaxed anymore. Instead, they became extremely vigilant.

There had been more than thirty of them when they came. Now, only half remained.

Mu Lei deliberately came to Song Jie's side. "Song Jie, what do you think of Jiao Jiao?"

"What are you referring to?"

"The person, of course!"

"Beautiful, big, soft!" Song Jie replied with the three-word mantra.

Mu Lei furrowed his brows, carefully pondering Song Jie's three-word mantra.

"Whoa! So that's the kind of guy you are, Song Jie!" After Mu Lei understood, he put on a look as if he had seen through him.

"Don't misunderstand. I meant Mu Nu Jiao is beautiful, has big eyes, and takes very good care of her skin," Song Jie said.

"I get it, I get it."

Mu Lei smiled. "Since you saved Jiao Jiao, after we go back, I'll give you her contact details. I'm sure she'll ask for yours too."

Since he wanted to win Song Jie over, of course he had to first build a good relationship with him.

And the reason Mu Lei wanted to give Mu Nu Jiao's contact details to Song Jie was not to use her.

It was because he felt that Mu Nu Jiao also seemed to think Song Jie was pretty good.

After all, Mu Nu Jiao was the proud daughter of the Mu Family, usually extremely aloof!

Yet she had actually approached Song Jie and taken the initiative to speak with him. That was very abnormal!

So!

He was helping the two of them build a bridge and make a match. That was perfectly reasonable, right?!

Song Jie narrowed his eyes and stared at Mu Lei. This guy was definitely being so nice to him for some other reason.

Mu Lei said with a chuckle, "I just want to make friends with you."

"Are you sure you don't want me to become your brother-in-law?" Song Jie also said with a smile.

Mu Lei was frank. "That depends on your ability. If you become my brother-in-law, I'll definitely acknowledge you!"

Song Jie smiled and did not continue the topic.

They traveled for half an hour and finally arrived at their destination.

At the same time, the other two teams also arrived here, but one team was in an even worse state than theirs.

A team of more than thirty people had fewer than ten left. One could imagine just how miserable they had been.

"What happened to you?" Uncle Jin looked at that person and asked.

"We encountered a pack of Thunder Pattern Wolves on the way," that High-level Mage said.

His condition was not good either. He looked incomparably wretched, with an exhausted appearance.

"In your state, you can't continue searching for Plant Stamens. Rest for a while first," Uncle Jin said as he looked at them.

They did not force themselves either, knowing their current condition.

If they encountered demons again, with their Magic Energy exhausted, they would very likely be killed by the demons.

The other team, on the other hand, had not encountered danger, so their thirty-plus people had not decreased.

"There are Plant Stamens in this dense forest ahead. No matter how many you find, our Mu Clan will buy them, and all at market price," Uncle Jin said as he looked at everyone.

Hearing this, everyone began to stir eagerly, because they had taken the risk to come here precisely to pick Plant Stamens!

Mu Lei moved closer to Song Jie and reminded him in a low voice, "Song Jie, these Plant Stamens aren't that easy to find. Be careful when you go in. There may be danger."

This was also his first time here, but he had heard from people in the clan that this place was not safe.

The strange dense forest earlier had been the same. He had only heard about it too, but only after experiencing it did he know how terrifying that dense forest was.

Although he knew Mu Lei had approached him with a purpose and was showing him goodwill because of it, he still had a slight favorable impression of Mu Lei in his heart.

Uncle Jin took the lead, and Song Jie and the others followed him into the dense forest.

After entering, they began splitting up. Because this dense forest was very large, even with more than forty of them, they might not be able to search even one-tenth of it.

Song Jie sighed inwardly. He had finally reached this damned place.

Before coming, he had already gone to look at what Plant Stamens looked like, so he had no problem identifying them.

For Little Green's sake, I've got to help it find a few Plant Stamens to cheer it up, Song Jie thought to himself.

Watching Song Jie's figure disappear into the distance, Mu Nu Jiao looked at Mu Lei. "Brother Lei, aren't we going?"

Mu Lei replied, "Our mission was to escort them here. Whether they can find any Plant Stamens from here on out is up to them."

Mu Nu Jiao stared ahead for a long time without speaking.

"What? Fallen for him already?" Mu Lei asked with a meaningful smile.

"No..." Mu Nu Jiao shook her head in panic. She just felt that Song Jie might truly be short on money if he had joined the team.

If she repaid him with money directly, he might very well think she was insulting him.

So she was thinking she could help Song Jie find a few more Plant Stamens. That would be different.

Mu Lei teased, "Song Jie really is pretty good. If you like him, I can have him add your contact details. Then you two can chat when you're free and build up your relationship."

Mu Nu Jiao was still just an underage girl. How could she withstand teasing like that?

Very quickly, two faint blushes appeared on her pretty face.

"It's not like you can't go. You can bring Uncle Jin with you. That way, it'll be safe too," Mu Lei said.

"Really?"

"Really. I'll go tell Uncle Jin for you." Mu Lei smiled, then turned and walked toward Uncle Jin.

Aside from Uncle Jin, they still had two High-level Mages, so their safety was still guaranteed.

In the dense forest, Song Jie saw that no one was around and summoned Little Green.

"Ring, ring, ring!"

Little Green had exhausted too much energy and had been recovering after going back. After being woken up by Song Jie, its little cheeks puffed out.

Song Jie smiled. So Little Green even had a bit of morning grumpiness. He stroked the green leaves on top of Little Green's head.

"Don't be mad yet, Little Green. Daddy called you out to find you something tasty."

Hearing that, Little Green put on an expression that said, "I forgive you," and looked at him while crying, "Ring, ring, ring!"

Song Jie smiled and said, "I haven't found any yet, have I? That's why I called you out to help."

Little Green puffed out its cheeks again.

After Song Jie's painstaking persuasion, he finally convinced Little Green to help search for Plant Stamens.

After he showed Little Green a picture of a Plant Stamen, the latter began searching.

Little Green was a Plant Element creature, so it could communicate with the surrounding plants. Because of that, searching was much more convenient for it than for him.

Song Jie followed behind Little Green, serving as its guard and escort.

After walking for around ten minutes, Little Green suddenly let out a crisp "Ring, ring, ring!"
