"Don't look at me like that, I won't eat you." Lu Ling was stared at with a pair of guarded eyes that made her feel helpless.
"But I still have some doubts..." Yu Shishi pursed his lips and did not say the second half of the sentence.
"What's there to be suspicious of? If I really wanted to do something bad for you, I could just arrest you. Just like those who came to arrest you before."
Lu Ling's tone was unhurried, as if she was reciting a past event that she didn't want to recall but couldn't deny.
"Only I would be so kind as to give you shelter."
Yu Shishi was stunned, and she asked in a trembling voice.
"... How do you know."
Lu Ling raised his hand and tore open a silver hole. A small eagle flew out and stood on Lu Ling's shoulder.
Yu Shishi felt an inexplicable chill down his spine and felt a very terrifying aura on this little eagle.
"It is Haidongqing God, a type of Totem Beast. It is the same as the Moon Moth Phoenix you are guarding, and it belongs to the Feather Clan."
"..."
When Lu Ling said the three words Moon Moth Phoenix, Yu Shishi's heart was already in turmoil.
She was silent for a long time before speaking again and asked a question that anyone would ask in this situation.
"How did you know?"
"I am also Totem Guardian..."
Lu Ling used the same usual rhetoric and explained it carefully to Yu Shishi.
What he said was vivid and convincing, and was supported by Haidongqing God. Yu Shishi already believed most of Lu Ling.
She thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded lightly.
"I promise you."
"Smart choice, let's go, take Moon Moth Phoenix with you and go to your new home."
"No... you take me to Fanxue City first. After I confirm that there are no problems with the environment and other aspects, I will take Moon Moth Phoenix there myself." Yu Shishi said warily.
"Okay, it's normal to be a little wary." Lu Ling smiled slightly and did not reject the decision.
After all, they had met for less than an hour, and it was quite bold for this little girl to trust him to this extent.
Having said that, Haidongqing God grew in size and returned to Fanxue City carrying Yu Shishi and Lu Ling.
Lu Ling was secretly glad that he had borrowed this little guy in advance, otherwise Yu Shishi might not have let go so easily.
This girl is new to the world, and she looks a little pitiful. He is really reluctant to use any strong methods.
Tongxiang was not far from Fanxue City. Haidongqing God was fast enough and soon landed in front of a small wooden house at the foot of a mountain.
This is the place Lu Ling selected in advance. It is a low hill with dense vegetation and a stream flowing around the mountain. It is so quiet that only the sound of wind and insects are left.
"You can live here from now on. I hope you like it." Lu Ling said.
"So beautiful..."
Yu Shishi's eyes lit up unconsciously. The small wooden house in front of him was exquisite and simple, with a faint rosin in the wood. There were several pots of unnamed wild flowers on the window sill. It didn't look like it was prepared temporarily.
"Although this place is on the side of a mountain, it still has electricity and communication signals. The city not far away is my private property, and of course it is here as well. If you need anything, you can contact me."
"Thank you, Lu Ling, this is a very suitable place for my Spirit Moths to live..." Yu Shishi's tone was much more relaxed than before, and even the tense shoulders relaxed.
"This is the place I specially selected for you. Of course it's suitable." Lu Ling added casually.
"..."
Hearing this, Yu Shishi stared at Lu Ling with some suspicion.
This person...
Why does it feel like Lu Ling knows her so well?
Obviously she has never seen each other before...
"Ahem, when Moon Moth Phoenix is reborn, you can tell me and I can give her a chance to accelerate her growth." Lu Ling coughed a few times, trying to divert Yu Shishi's attention.
"How do you know Moon Moth Phoenix so well? You even know her status!" Yu Shishi was shocked again.
"..."
Well, originally Lu Ling wanted to hide it. To be precise, he didn't want to alert the public.
But he was talking nonsense again.
Lu Ling really felt that there was no need to hide this kind of unimportant information.
"I'll be honest, I know Moon Moth Phoenix much better than you do." Lu Ling took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
"It is Totem Beast, you should know it. Then, I know the previous guardian of Moon Moth Phoenix, why Moon Moth Phoenix died, and the real culprit who caused everything. When Moon Moth Phoenix is reborn, I will kill the real culprit. At the same time, Moon Moth Phoenix can also swallow the life energy of the real culprit, thereby accelerating growth."
"..."
Yu Shishi stood there and didn't speak for a long time. Her expression was a bit complicated. It wasn't suspicion or fear, it was more like she was overwhelmed by too much information at once.
"You should get used to the environment. I'll leave first. Everything you need is ready in the house."
After saying that, Lu Ling turned around and left.
"Wait."
"Huh?"
Yu Shishi hesitated for a second, and then said very firmly.
"Give me another ride. I'll bring Moon Moth Phoenix over."
"... Okay."
There were no accidents along the way, and Moon Moth Phoenix was successfully transferred to the hill.
"There will be people guarding here, and no one will come in easily. If someone comes to arrest you, you can directly contact the other person and Haidongqing God will also protect you." Lu Ling said.
"Well! Thank you, Lu Ling!" Yu Shishi thanked her seriously.
"Can your Spirit Moth now gather the elemental energy in the air?"
"Okay... how do you know!?"
Yu Shishi is already numb, always feeling like he has been stripped naked, standing naked in front of this man, with no secret at all.
"In the future, you can help me make some Artificial Heavenly Seed. Just tell my secretaries what materials you need, and they will try their best to satisfy you. I have worked so hard to provide you with shelter, so you can't just have free food here, right?" Lu Ling said confidently, feeling that this was her real purpose.
Of course, that was originally one of the goals.
Artificial Heavenly Seed, even if he doesn't use it, it can be used by girls. A Heavenly Seed will greatly improve the mage.
"Heavenly Seed? That's the highest-level element. How could it be made as soon as it's said to be made?"
Yu Shishi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
In theory, she can indeed do it, but she has never tried it herself. Who knows how much time and energy a Heavenly Seed will consume.
"Hehehe, I believe in you. Just practice when you have time. I'm not forcing you, I'm just trying to find something for you to do." Lu Ling chuckled.
This time I really left.
"..."
Heavenly Seed... It's so difficult.
But what she just said... she can submit as much material as she wants to her secretaries?
Then she needs to cultivate her Spirit Moth well first. If she doesn't cultivate her Spirit Moth well, how can she refine the elements?
Hey hey hey...
Yu Shishi couldn't help but laugh sinisterly in his heart.
All this was expected by Lu Ling, and she was not afraid that Yu Shishi would empty his treasury. With Lu Ling in hand with Soul Gathering Technique, she would not worry about money at all.
Lu Ling took a few steps and looked back at Haidongqing God who was still squatting on a branch.
"Sea Dongqing, if someone comes to trouble her, please protect her."
The miniature eagle rubbed his cheek twice, then flapped its wings and flew away in the direction of Song Feiyao.
