Chapter 211

"What's a 'last gasp'?" Kuitifulong didn't understand the term, but simply said, "I've guarded the entrance to the sacred mountains, and I've never heard of them producing mead. I suspect the Divine Goat inside can't either."

Xie Juanhan quickly explained the meaning of "a final burst of energy before death," but still felt something was off.

Kuitifulong said, "The day the moon disappears is almost here again. Why don't you go in and catch a few more Divine Goat?"

Xie Juanhan: "It can be like this?"

Kuitifulong: "Of course, it's just a bit troublesome."

Xie Juanhan really liked the Divine Goat's mead.

He had a vague feeling that these meads would bring them great benefits.

Even with his current divination abilities, he couldn't yet explain the benefits.

But he already had a premonition and couldn't afford to miss it.

So, on another day when the moon disappeared, he and Telingewei made a trip to the Peiaonuoer Hunting Grounds to catch the Divine Goat.

The Peiaonuoer Hunting Grounds are extremely large.

When Telingewei went in, this time he wasn't turned into Little Black Dragon, but rather into a half-grown young Black Dragon.

In the hunting grounds, the White Dragon was exhausted, having to search for the Divine Goat while also holding onto the young Black Dragon by the tips of his wings to prevent him from escaping.

Fortunately, their harvest was decent.

They brought out four Peiaonuoer Divine Sheep when they went in.

They were all ewes.

It wasn't easy for Kuitifulong to open the entrance for them, Xie Juanhan specially gifted him a jar of level-two magic wine to thank him for his help.

After returning home with the four ewes, they put them in the sheepfold and took good care of them.

The vegetables and fruits they grow are far superior to the wild grasses in the Peiaonuoer Hunting Grounds.

The four new ewes in their sheepfold quickly grew fat.

However, none of the four ewes showed any signs of producing mead.

Their breasts weren't even swollen.

"Strange, what went wrong?" Xie Juanhan stood by the sheepfold, puzzled by the Divine Goat.

Suddenly, Telingewei said, "Could it be a problem with the Magic Wand Tree's branches and leaves?"

Xie Juanhan suddenly remembered that when the two Divine Goat, one male and one female, first arrived at his home, they ate a lot of the leaves of the Magic Wand Tree.

To protect the little Goblin, the Magic Wand Tree didn't move, and a gap was gnawed into its canopy.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei looked at each other.

"The Magic Wand Tree is a level four magical plant," Telingewei said.

Xie Juanhan said, "Indeed, Divine Goat that can produce mead cannot possibly feed on ordinary plants."

The Magic Wand Tree had a corner of its crown gnawed off by the Divine Goat. For the past two weeks, it has been diligently eating fertilizer and drinking spring water.

After struggling for so long, its canopy finally sprouted new buds, filling in the gap.

It finally felt more at ease and could breathe a sigh of relief. Xie Juanhan then dragged Telingewei over again, wanting to ask it for some leaves and twigs.

The Magic Wand Tree immediately panicked, wishing it could spew out two pools of lava and smash them directly onto the two dragon heads.

"Chirp! Chirp!" The Magic Wand Tree shook its crown, its deep voice unusually tinged with impatience.

The Magic Wand Tree poked its branches under the two longan fruits, indicating that its new branches had just sprouted and were still tender green, not yet dark green, so why were its leaves being plucked?

Bad dragon! Bad dragon!

Xie Juanhan stroked its branches to comfort it, "Aren't you the only level four magical plant in the entire Magic Forest? I can only ask for your help. Little Tree, please."

The Magic Wand Tree snorted and ignored it.

Xie Juanhan: "Shall we trade it for Dragon Power Crystal Fertilizer?"

The Magic Wand Tree wasn't swayed at all, angrily declaring that the fertilizer was only given to creatures outside the family members; it was the family tree, the family tree!

"Chirp! Chirp chirp!"

The Magic Wand Tree will only whine for a while; once it recovers from its heartache, it will most likely agree.

Xie Juanhan was just in a hurry; he didn't think that way and misunderstood the Magic Wand Tree's thoughts.

His mind raced, going through a whole series of thoughts, before suddenly he thought, "Why don't you try the Divine Goat's mead, Little Tree? Then you'll understand why I wanted to switch to that."

The Magic Wand Tree was still hesitating, intending to agree after some deliberation, but upon hearing Xie Juanhan's words, it paused.

Xie Juanhan reached out and shook the tree branch. "Is it okay?"

The Magic Wand Tree twirled its branches, giving Telingewei a "glance".

Finally, unable to resist its curiosity, it agreed, "Chirp, chirp."

Xie Juanhan quickly nudged Telingewei's shoulder. "Quickly, bring out the rest of our Divine Goat Mead."

Telingewei looked at the Magic Wand Tree and took out the remaining small jar of Divine Goat mead.

The Magic Wand Tree smelled the scent of the Divine Goat Mead, and its canopy immediately turned away.

It swiftly pulled out a dark root and, like inserting a straw, stuck it into the wine jar.

Soon, it sucked the mead into the tree.

Xie Juanhan asked it with expectant eyes, "How does it feel? Not bad, right?"

As the Magic Wand Tree continued to suck in the air, its canopy suddenly drooped down like a limp scallion.

Xie Juanhan was startled. "Huh?"

Immediately afterwards, the leaves of the Magic Wand Tree suddenly spewed out a stream of liquid that fell like rain, directly onto the little Goblin below.

The little Goblin were protected by carefully placed protective magic by Telingewei.

However, the Divine Goat mead is not a harmful substance.

The protective magic does not prohibit fertilizer and water.

And so, the small jar of mead that the Magic Wand Tree had sucked up ended up right on the heads of the little Goblin.

Xie Juanhan's voice was practically cracking as he frantically tried to evaporate the wine using his Dragon Power: "Ah?! Ah!!!"

See you tomorrow!

The wine spilled onto the little Goblin too quickly; Xie Juanhan reacted immediately, but it was still too late.

Just as the wine was about to evaporate, the little Goblin's leaves darted forward, rising a short distance and carrying away the wine.

"Hmm?" Xie Juanhan looked at the Goblin.

The little Goblin's leaves swayed merrily, and Xie Juanhan even had the illusion that he could hear them cheering.

The Magic Wand Tree finally realized what was happening, and seeing the wine being devoured by the little Goblin, it cried out anxiously, "Chirp chirp!"

The little Goblin shook their leaves, seemingly also thanking the Magic Wand Tree.

The Magic Wand Tree couldn't argue with the little Goblin, so it hurriedly turned its branches in front of the two dragons. "Chirp! Chirp chirp chirp!"

The Magic Wand Tree said it loves this drink, but it's not used to it and accidentally sprayed it out, asking if there's any more.

"That's all." Xie Juanhan held up the jar of mead, then turned it upside down to show it. "There really isn't a single drop left."

The Magic Wand Tree is about to split open. "Chirp!"

Xie Juanhan looked at the frustrated Magic Wand Tree and tried to negotiate, "How about you give me some leaves? I'll bring you some more when the Divine Goat secretes mead again."

The Magic Wand Tree asked how many leaves it wanted, "Chirp chirp?"

Xie Juanhan pondered, "Twice the number of leaves you lost last time?"

The Magic Wand Tree swayed its branches, counting on its fingers like someone counting on their fingers, and after a while, it chirped, "Chirp chirp?"

Xie Juanhan: "Yes, that's exactly how many. Last time, only two Divine Goat ate your branches and leaves, but now there are four more, making a total of six. You've seen the size of those Divine Goat; a little bit of leaves simply won't be enough for them."

After pondering for a long time, the Magic Wand Tree roughly understood, and then suddenly protested. "Chirp! Chirp chirp chirp!!!"

"It won't go bald." Xie Juanhan looked up at the canopy of the Magic Wand Tree, which almost covered the yard, and was very confident in it. "We'll pick the leaves separately, and I'll make sure no other creatures notice that your leaves have decreased significantly."

The Magic Wand Tree snorted, "Chirp chirp."

The Magic Wand Tree was unwilling to give out a large number of leaves. It asked Xie Juanhan and Telingewei to first pick out a Divine Goat that had never eaten its leaves and try feeding it.

If feeding the sheep leaves helps Divine Goat produce mead, that's one thing; if not, stop feeding it to avoid wasting too many leaves at once.

This fellow is so clever, Xie Juanhan felt gratified, and patted its trunk. "Alright, I'll do it your way."

The Magic Wand Tree made its request again. "Chirp!"

Xie Juanhan agreed, "Okay, we'll use garden shears, and we'll be very careful."

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei were pruning the leaves of the Magic Wand Tree, and the little ones all came over to watch.

Nibote nudged Xie Juanhan's chest with his big head, enthusiastically offering himself up. "Meow!"

Xie Juanhan patted its head. "Hovering in the air and cutting is too dangerous. It's safer to use a ladder."

Nibote: "Meow?"

Xie Juanhan: "I'll ask for your help again next time."

Having failed to help and thus missing out on any treats, Nibote licked his lips, wagged his tail dejectedly, and went to watch from the sidelines.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei brought over a large ladder specifically to prune the leaves of the Magic Wand Tree.

They propped a ladder up in the tree and carefully pruned the branches with the densest foliage.

The Magic Wand Tree was initially reluctant. When faced with Xie Juanhan and Telingewei's scissors, it would always hide its branches among other branches, and Xie Juanhan or Telingewei would have to pull out its branches before they could cut its leaves.

As the Magic Wand Tree continued pruning, it discovered that the two dragons were actually quite skilled.

Its originally messy branches and leaves were gradually trimmed into neat rows.

Most importantly, after trimming, there are no visible gaps, and it doesn't look like there's an unsightly bald patch at all.

As Xie Juanhan and his companions kept their promise and only trimmed a few leaves before leaving, the Magic Wand Tree hesitantly slipped a branch into Xie Juanhan's hand, chirping.

Xie Juanhan looked at the branch that had been pushed towards him. "Do you want to cut a little more?"

The Magic Wand Tree indicated that it needed to be trimmed neatly. "Chirp chirp."
