For several days, Lu Yin strolled around the Rose Empire fortress with Little Sapling, helping it feel less afraid. Meanwhile, thanks to Ku Wei's publicity, word spread that Lu Yin liked collecting strange plants, and people kept bringing unusual plants to the Rose Empire fortress.
The Rose Empire fortress now had far more plants than before. Even the landscaping had improved considerably.
Every so often, strange plants could be seen scurrying about.
By now, more than half a month had passed since Shui Chuanxiao began infiltrating the Basong Flow Realm. Once the Lu Xuan Army had fully infiltrated it, the war to eradicate the Basong Flow Realm could begin.
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
Little Sapling swayed its green leaves, looking delighted. Ahead, a beautiful blue flower released a sea-like glow that surrounded it. Little Sapling bounced around excitedly. Farther away, some little plants were spitting out water.
Birds flew across the sky, too. If one ignored the fact that the plants could move, it was a harmonious scene of nature.
"Alliance Leader, someone from the Sword Armor Mercenary Group has brought a tree that can run away," someone reported.
Lu Yin replied calmly, "Bring it in."
Little Sapling was clearly more attached to the plants. Ku Wei had visited twice over the past few days, and Little Sapling had met him before, yet it was still afraid of him. The plants were different, especially one that was highly aggressive—but when it faced Little Sapling, it was like a mouse seeing a cat.
Soon, Qi Jin, the Sword Armor Mercenary Group's Commander, arrived with a large tree tied up behind him. He struggled to walk.
Lu Yin had a fairly deep impression of the Sword Armor Mercenary Group. Sha Mu, the commander of the Imperial Court Eighth Team, was its deputy commander.
