The ladder looked pretty sturdy so she started climbing it. When she was halfway up, Mu Ye couldnt stop himself from reminding her, Use qinggong.

She always ended up forgetting that she knew qinggong.

When she gradually got near the end of the ladder, she leaped up and landed on a branch nearby.

Wah, does this still count as a tree? Its way too magical!

Tang Doudou stood on the enormous tree branch. The beautiful scene above her was completely different from what was below her. Rainbow-colored leaves glowed with faint radiance like the immortal trees of the legends.

There were all sorts of fruits hanging in between those leaves. Their colors were all very bright and as far as the eye could see, no two were identical.

How magical! She couldnt help but sigh emotionally.

Mu Ye nodded. Nan Maner said that these fruits were really good, so I picked some.

Could he not bring up this subject?

Her tongue was still slightly numb right now!

Ahem, really? Have you eaten any?

I havent. He was worried that she would be really hungry when she woke up so he immediately went down to give them to her as soon as he picked some.

Tang Doudou was speechless. Suddenly, she saw a rainbow-colored leaf drop onto Mu Yes shoulder. She reached over and picked it up. How could rainbow-colored leaves exist? It really doesnt follow common sense!

Perhaps its related to the soil, said Mu Ye.

The soil? Tang Doudou was a good child of the new age and knew that the things required for plants to grow were not simply soil and sunlight.

However, she didnt investigate deeply into this question because the question of how this tree became like this really didnt have much to do with her. She wasnt an explorer so she wasnt that interested in the reason why. Hence, she just gazed at it for a while. Once she looked enough, she said goodbye to Mu Ye and returned to her room to wait for Nan Maner to bring her food.

Mu Ye watched until her head disappeared from view. Nan Maner had mentioned that the medicinal bath was made from these fruits, so he thought they would help her recover. Why did her facial color turn so bad when he brought them up?

Could it be because the fruits didnt taste good?

He pulled off a nearby fruit. After a moment of thought, he bit down. His cold expression instantly crumbled as a red flush crawled up his neck.

He finally understood why Tang Doudou would make such an expression when looking at the fruits.

Unexpectedly, theyve already been stuck on this crappy tree for three months.

Filtered sunlight shone through the dense leaves. Tang Doudou was bored stiff as she lay on the tree, counting the days. She then gave a long sigh.

Mu Ye was sitting not far from her, his expression the same as always.

Hehe, the Alliance Head and the Leader of the Demonic Sect disappeared at the same time for so long. The Jianghu has probably turned into porridge from the disorder by now, right? Tang Doudou smacked her lips, before suddenly speaking, as she looked towards the expressionless Mu Ye.

Mu Ye nodded. Theyll think that I took you.

Then search the entire country for our tracks.

In the end, they wouldnt find anything.

Theyll definitely think that we took each other down! Haha! Tang Doudou started laughing. After interacting with Mu Ye for these past months, she discovered that this iceberg was actually only cold on the surface. At times, he was actually quite fun.

But it was seriously thanks to her careful guidance!

Three months ago, he only spat out one or two words at a time, but now he was already capable of carrying on random banter with her. She would even see a faint smile occasionally appear on his face.

Heh, Mu Ye, why do you always have such a serious expression? Isnt smiling like this great? Tang Doudou couldnt help but ask.

Mu Ye stopped smiling and glanced at her. I dont feel that theres anything amusing.

She still had to decipher his words though. What this meant was that previously, his life was too dull and there wasnt a time when he was happy at all.

Tang Doudou sat up and knitted her brows. Could it be that I look really funny?

Mu Ye shook his head.

Heh, well, whatever. Tang Doudou lay back down again and looked at the rainbow-colored leaves above her. I really miss Xiao Bai, I really want to go back ah

Of course, she missed Baili Yu the most. Its been almost half a year since theyve seen each other.

She didnt know if he was searching the country for her or if he already had a new flame.

Soon now, said Mu Ye suddenly.

Soon now what?

Mu Yes tone was serious. His eyes were filled with worry as he looked towards Tang Doudou. Shen Moru is almost back.

If he comes back then so be it. The earlier one dies, the earlier one reincarnates. If one dies sooner, one will be able to avoid the birth-control policy said Tang Doudou in a nonchalant manner. However, in truth, she was afraid. She didnt know what Shen Moru would do to her when he came back. Would he lock her up and drain her blood every day, or would he drain her dry in one go?

Hehe, youre rather open-minded. Shen Morus voice suddenly came from above their heads. He laughed in his usual strange way. Itd save me some effort.

Tang Doudou sat up and looked around but didnt see Shen Moru.

Is sneaking around pretending to be a ghost all you know to do?

Shen Morus jeje laughter got closer. Little girl, dont think you can act impudent just because I cant kill you

As the last word sounded, Shen Morus figure also appeared in front of her. That same instant, his withered fingers made contact with Tang Doudous neck.

Humph, if you dare then just choke me to death right now! Tang Doudou continued to be cheeky and didnt even look straight at Shen Moru.

Hehe, you want to die?

I dont want to.

If you dont want to, then you had better behave!

She had already heard words like this countless times these past three months. She didnt pay attention to it at all. If you want to kill me, do it more straightforwardly. Ive never seen a man that dawdled as much as you!

Hehe, it will be as you wish soon! said Shen Moru darkly.

He then released Tang Doudous neck. No longer minding the two, he went down the ladder to find Grandma Shen.

Sicko! Tang Doudou cursed at his back, then looked towards Mu Ye. How about you do it?

I wont kill you.

Aaah!!! If this wont do and that wont do, will I really have to accept this fate of being a blood source? Tang Doudou once again lay down on the tree branch. Her glistening eyes contained a secret scheme. Three months ago, she didnt have any way to deal with Shen Moru but three months later

A faint smile appeared on her lips as she looked at the fruits above her.
