130: Accidentally entered the Heavenly Palace
"We're here! Brother Tianxiao, follow me!"
Just as they landed on the branch of the Divine Tree, Huang Xiaoyao led Mo Tianxiao and Yun Sangyi toward her secret base.
Surrounding gazes suddenly shot over, encircling several of them.
"It's Grandpa Turtle, Grandpa Turtle is back!"
"And humans?"
"How could humans come back together with Elder Feng and the others?"
"What's the deal with those two humans? Why does Princess Xiao Yao seem so familiar with them?"
The gazes of various Yao Beasts converged on the two of them, making them feel extremely uncomfortable. Yun Sangyi even hurriedly stepped forward a couple of paces, almost pressing herself against Mo Tianxiao's side.
The feeling of being watched like food caused her hairs to stand on end instantly, and she didn't dare to look around.
Most of the Yao Beasts here didn't know much about humans; they had only learned from their Elders that humans were cunning creatures.
Seeing humans dare to come to their base for the first time, they felt incredibly curious, and many Yao Beasts also emitted hostility.
Huang Xiaoyao didn't care about the surrounding gazes, excitedly leading Mo Tianxiao and the other toward her secret base.
Seeing his younger sister like this, Feng Jiu's eyelids twitched violently, and he felt extremely displeased.
Old Turtle chuckled twice. "Let the little ones cause some trouble for him. Now that he's here, everything is up to us."
A sharp glint flashed in Feng Jiu's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "True. He's just in the Void Refining stage. It's a good chance for these little ones to deal with a human from outside, so they can learn how dangerous humans are."
Since he dared to deceive Xiao Yao's feelings, he definitely wouldn't let this kid have an easy time.
Turning to look at Little Tiger and Little Lion nearby, Feng Jiu said solemnly, "You should know what to do."
Hearing this, Little Tiger and Little Lion's faces turned pale. They really wanted to refuse this task, but under pressure, they nodded and gave their promise.
If all the Yao Beasts on the Divine Tree found out about that human kid's background, his end would probably be miserable.
They really didn't want to betray Huang Xiaoyao, but they had no choice. They were just two small Yao Beasts in the Tongxuan Realm; even if their clan Elders were also Saint Realm Elders, it wouldn't help.
If their own Elders found out, they would likely be even more excessive than Elder Feng Jiu, perhaps even personally finding that human kid to teach him a lesson.
Feng Jiu led Old Turtle toward the territory of the Heavenly Demon Phoenixes.
Meanwhile, Little Tiger and Little Lion began their mission, spreading the rumor that Huang Xiaoyao was being played for a fool by this human, Mo Tianxiao.
On the other side, Mo Tianxiao and Yun Sangyi were led by Huang Xiaoyao to her Secret Realm base.
They twisted and turned along the tree trunk, flying for nearly half an hour before reaching their destination.
The secret base was a medicinal garden.
A medicinal garden cultivated right on the Divine Tree.
Before they even arrived, Mo Tianxiao and the other smelled the delicious scent of Heaven And Earth Treasures.
"Brother Tianxiao, come in quickly. This is my private treasure vault!"
Huang Xiaoyao performed several Daoist Magic spells, and a ripple appeared on the tree trunk ahead, which was covered in various mysterious patterns. She then stepped inside first.
Mo Tianxiao and Yun Sangyi exchanged a glance and followed her in.
Entering the inner space, their vision instantly opened up. Beneath a blue sky was a vast medicinal field; at a glance, this field was even larger than a city in the human world.
The field was planted with all kinds of Heaven And Earth Treasures. Their branches and tender leaves shimmered with various colors, and the soil constantly surged with saint yuan power to nourish these treasures, allowing them to grow robustly.
From hundreds to thousands, and even up to ten-thousand-year-old Heaven And Earth Treasures, it was a dazzling sight. More importantly, the treasures, herbs, and spirit fruits here were all top-quality; common varieties were nowhere to be seen.
With a quick scan, Mo Tianxiao saw no fewer than ten ten-thousand-year Heaven And Earth Treasures alone, and the number of several-thousand-year-old ones was countless. There were even several Heavenly Wondrous Item planted separately in special zones.
Just one would be enough for a Treasure Hunter to live on for a lifetime, yet she had an entire massive field of them.
And this was only Huang Xiaoyao's private garden.
Yun Sangyi stood there dazed, her mouth wide open and her eyes nearly bulging out of her head.
Mo Tianxiao was also speechless at this point. He and Yun Sangyi had snatched so many Heaven And Earth Treasures, but all of them combined probably didn't amount to as much as a single corner of this place.
This really was like accidentally entering a divine abode... If the Yao Race were willing to cooperate with humans, they would likely be the richest in the world. The wealth of the Floating Cloud Chamber of Commerce appeared as childish as a kindergartner before the Yao Race.
"Um, Xiao Yao, are there many medicinal gardens like this in your Yao Race?"
Mo Tianxiao asked in a low voice.
Huang Xiaoyao showed a thoughtful expression. After a moment of silence, she replied, "There should be quite a few. Anyway, grandpa tree said he has more saint yuan than he can use up, so he might as well let us cultivate some medicinal herbs and spirit fruits."
"Hehe, so that's how it is..."
Mo Tianxiao could no longer find words to describe it. More saint yuan than he can use up? Used to cultivate 'some' medicinal herbs?
Is this just 'some'?
Would all the Heaven And Earth Treasures in the entire Hundred Thousand Great Mountains combined be as many as those on this Divine Tree?
As expected of a Divine Tree that has existed since the birth of this plane; it truly is domineering.
"Brother Tianxiao, if you see anything you like, just take it. Don't be polite with me!"
Huang Xiaoyao nudged Mo Tianxiao toward the medicinal field.
Each herb and spirit fruit in the field occupied its own area, growing quietly without interfering with the others.
Mo Tianxiao kept swallowing his saliva. A wealth of resources was beckoning to him, making his head spin.
If he could, he wanted them all!
But... "Xiao Yao, these things are so precious, let them keep growing well. If I need them in the future, I'll come find you for them, how about that?"
He was certainly greedy, but that was toward outsiders.
For a Child of Destiny and Auspicious Beast like Huang Xiaoyao, he would try every means to make her one of his own.
Once they were all on the same side, her things would naturally be his. It didn't matter if he took them now, as long as he could come get them whenever he needed.
"But, Brother Tianxiao finally came to play with me, how can I not give a gift? Don't human best friends always give each other gifts?"
A look of disappointment appeared on Huang Xiaoyao's small face. She thought Mo Tianxiao was making an excuse to brush her off because he didn't want to accept her gift.
Did this mean that in Brother Tianxiao's heart, their relationship wasn't yet good enough to exchange gifts?
"..." Mo Tianxiao was speechless.
Once Huang Xiaoyao said this, Mo Tianxiao couldn't help but feel a bit guilty.
He had come to see Xiao Yao without preparing a gift, yet Xiao Yao was letting him pick whatever he wanted from this medicinal garden.
Many of these were priceless treasures, things that couldn't be bought outside even if one wanted to.
In an instant, Mo Tianxiao felt the purity and sincerity of the Yao Beasts, and at the same time, his conscience seemed to ache slightly.
"Xiao Yao, the seven-colored sacred lotus you gave me before was already enough."
"By the way, this trip was a bit rushed and I didn't prepare any gifts. Take this quasi-saint artifact to use for self-defense."
Mo Tianxiao flipped his palm, and a miniature version of the xuanhuang bell hovered in his hand as he handed it to Huang Xiaoyao.
