"Ha, of course I know you, but before that, you'd better take a good look at your situation."

As he spoke, Mo Yuan had a thought and transmitted the scene he had witnessed to Ah Yin's consciousness.

"What?! You planted me in a flowerpot?! Do you even know who I am?! I'm the Life Core of Douluo Star! You actually treat me like a potted plant?!"

Mo Yuan:???

No, have you guys synchronized some kind of weird consciousness?

How come they're even saying the same thing?

Could it be that all Life Core share the same mindset?

"Ahem, let me correct you." Mo Yuan held up a finger, "You're still in seed form, you haven't sprouted yet, so strictly speaking, you're not yet the Life Core of this plane."

Ah Yin sneered, "Fine, you seem to know quite a bit. But do you know who I am? Do you know the consequences of messing with me? My husband, Tang Hao, is Plane Lord! My son, Tang San, is a mighty God King! You dare to plant me in a flowerpot? Believe me, I'll have them come down and deal with you!"

Seemingly sensing a threat to her life, she completely lost her usual gentle demeanor.

"Of course I believe you," Mo Yuan nodded. "But unfortunately, you seem to have forgotten that the Divine Realm was swept away by the Temporal Turbulence. Your son is currently drifting in some star system and has no chance of returning. By the time he comes back, I'll probably have unified Douluo Star and planted you in the Star Dou Great Forest, making you the Life Core once again. When your son returns, he'll have to thank me. As for your husband? He's probably sleeping even more soundly than you. If I hadn't woken you up, you'd still be sleeping somewhere."

Ah Yin's heart skipped a beat, but she still stubbornly said, "Stop talking nonsense! Even if the Divine Realm is temporarily gone, my son will return sooner or later, and then—"

"Then what? You're going to tell them I planted you in a flowerpot?" Mo Yuan chuckled. "That's only if they come back. To put it bluntly, instead of arguing with me here, you should think about how to cooperate with me and try to get back in place as soon as possible. If you cooperate, I might even give you a bigger flowerpot tomorrow, right?"

Hearing Mo Yuan's teasing voice, Ah Yin's heart sank.

She wasn't stupid; seeing Mo Yuan's expression, she knew he wouldn't let her recover properly.

However, no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't figure out what she had done to offend this person.

She was clearly asleep the whole time.

However, she still felt a sliver of relief. Fortunately, the other party didn't know that she hadn't possessed the original Life Core. In that case, perhaps the other party wouldn't really do anything to her.

Ah Yin was silent for a few seconds, then her voice noticeably weakened, but she still wasn't exactly backing down. "Hmph... you sure know how to manipulate people. So, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

There's no way around it; when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head...

At the very least, we need to figure out why the other party is hostile towards us.

At the same time, she was also trying to contact Tang Hao. She believed that as long as she could get in touch with her Brother Hao, with his status Plane Lord, he would definitely be able to quickly deal with this guy with no known identity.

But as time went by, her heart gradually grew quieter.

Because she discovered that her senses seemed unable to transmit at all, and she couldn't capture even a single bit of information about Tang Hao.

Looking at the Life Seed before him, Mo Yuan smiled. How could he not know that Ah Yin was up to something?

He was simply incredibly confident in his skills.

You think you can escape my grasp, you mere Ah Yin?

"Okay, tell me first, can you sense the outside world?"

Hearing Mo Yuan's words, Ah Yin, who had been unable to contact Tang Hao, was extremely anxious, but dared not show it.

After thinking it over, she decided to lie.

"I can sense it, but it's very blurry. I can't see things that are too far away, but I can sense things within a range of about several tens of meters up close," Ah Yin said casually.

Hearing this statement, which was utterly untrue, Mo Yuan chuckled inwardly, but he didn't rush to expose the other party's lie.

Okay. Can you see outside the window now?

"No, that won't do." Ah Yin's tone was a little annoyed. "This flowerpot is too short, and the windowsill is too high. I can't even reach the window. Could you move the flowerpot to another spot?"

Mo Yuan gave her a deep look, a mischievous thought stirring within him.

So he reached out and moved the flowerpot to the center of the windowsill, so that the sapling was facing the window.

Ah Yin was silent for a few seconds, probably pretending to look at the view outside the window. "... Hmm... It's a beautiful view, but is this the seaside?"

Wow! You're so lucky, you even guessed that right.

Mo Yuan immediately nodded. "Yes, after all, this is a good location that I chose after a long time. I've put in a lot of effort to get it right in Eastsea City."

Ah Yin:?!

She was secretly delighted; she hadn't expected her to guess correctly.

"If that's the case, does that mean I can gain some advantage?" she thought to herself.

And so, the two, each harboring their own secrets, fell into silence.

After a long pause, Ah Yin couldn't help but ask, "How did you bring the Life Core of Douluo Star to Eastsea City? What about the Shrek Academy? Wasn't the Golden Ancient Tree originally located at the Shrek Academy?"

Mo Yuan sighed, "Ah... don't even mention it. The Golden Ancient Tree was blown up by Level 12 Fixed Soul Tool Cannon Shell, completely uprooted. Shrek Academy was also destroyed. It took me a lot of effort to repel the attackers and retrieve it from Sea God Island, condensing it into Life Seed. I'm preparing to rebuild it in the Star Dou Great Forest."

Ah Yin fell silent again; she never imagined that Shrek Academy would be destroyed.

Will something happen to my precious grandson?

Ah Yin suddenly felt a little worried.

"Hey, no offense, but as the Life Core, shouldn't you be concerned about the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Ah Yin: Star Dou Great Forest? What's he thinking?

"You have no idea, the Soul Beast are practically extinct now, and the Star Dou Great Forest is practically dead. I plan to rebuild the Star Dou Great Forest so that the Soul Beast can thrive again."

Ah Yin was greatly alarmed.

She never imagined that Soul Beast were on the verge of extinction.

But she quickly forced herself to calm down, because this was not the time to delve into that.

"You?" Ah Yin's voice was filled with obvious suspicion. "You, a human, want to rebuild the Star Dou Great Forest?"

"That's right... Humans and Soul Beast have been fighting for so many years. If this continues, the vitality of Douluo Star will not be able to hold on any longer, and humans themselves will not live long either."

Mo Yuan continued, "Therefore, I plan to allow Soul Beast to reproduce again, so that humans and Soul Beast can coexist. The Life Seed is the Life Core; without it, the Star Dou Great Forest cannot be restored."

Ah Yin didn't reply immediately, but she was secretly delighted.

In that case, I should still be able to live, and the other party won't do anything to me.

This way, she would still have a chance to contact Brother Hao.

Mo Yuan looked coldly at Ah Yin in front of him, inwardly cursing.

Is this guy crazy? He actually believed such a simple lie...

While most of what he said was true, he never said that you would be the Life Core.
