Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Xueyao naturally sensed the change in Jin Peng's personality. He was now a completely different person than he was then. If not, she wouldn't have listened to him so patiently.

Looking back, Jin Peng's sudden appearance really annoyed him.

Later on, even the old man became worried and showed up to help.

Unexpectedly, Jin Peng has changed so much now.

As expected, whether a person, oh no, a bird, wants to change or not depends entirely on their own heart. In fact, the same is true for humans and immortals: whether their intentions are right or wrong depends entirely on themselves.

Xue Yao looked at everything in front of her quietly, and a sense of emotion welled up in her heart.

She knew that Jin Peng was no longer the willful and reckless fellow he once was, but now a man with firm beliefs and goals. Perhaps it was precisely because of this change that he was able to meet her again and was willing to sign an alliance.

Only after dismantling the barrier did Xue Yao slowly reel in her wandering thoughts. She looked at Jin Peng, a complex emotion flickering in her eyes. Although she knew something about Jin Peng's past, he seemed different now. His eyes revealed a firmness and sincerity that made her want to trust him.

Jin Peng had already taken the initiative to sign an alliance with her, so what else could she do? She couldn't just chase him away again. If he wanted to stay, then let him stay. At worst, the group of eight would become nine. Thinking of this, Xue Yao smiled slightly and nodded at Jin Peng, expressing her agreement. From this moment on, they would face the challenges of the future together, moving forward hand in hand.

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in Xueyao's mind: "Xueyao, I think your subordinates are quite good! Would you like to consider recruiting them into my camp?"

Xueyao was startled and almost lost her balance. She stared at Jin Peng with wide eyes, secretly groaning in her heart.

How could this guy start targeting his own people so quickly? Doesn't he know the consequences of doing so?

Xue Yao took a deep breath, trying to remain calm, and said to Jin Peng, "Jin Peng, don't act rashly. These are all my friends, not items to be traded. We already have an alliance, and I hope you can abide by it and not violate it. Otherwise..."

She hadn't finished her words, but her meaning was clear. If Jin Peng dared to mess around, she would never let him go.

Of course, there was no need for her to do anything. If Jin Peng really breached the contract, Heaven would take care of him.

Jin Peng seemed to realize that he was a little too happy. He smiled awkwardly and explained, "Sorry, it was just a joke. I know that your relationship is very deep and you won't destroy this friendship easily. I just want you to know that I really want to integrate into this team and I will do anything. After all, I..."

Very envious.

His voice became smaller and smaller, but Xueyao understood.

She nodded to show her understanding, but she still warned Jin Peng not to make such jokes again to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

The eight members of the group had always been very united, centered around Xueyao, and had never had any disagreements. She didn't want Jin Peng's arrival to upset everyone.

Jin Peng nodded repeatedly in agreement and said that he would pay attention to his words and actions in the future.

However, Xue Yao hadn't finished her thoughts yet when Su Xin and the others saw the barrier being dismantled, they immediately surrounded her, each with a look of curiosity and concern.

"Xueyao, are you okay?" Su Xin spoke first, her eyes full of concern.

"It's okay, don't worry." Xue Yao replied with a smile.

Renhu, Xueyu, Qingyi and Baoling, however, immediately trapped Jinpeng. Are you kidding me? Dare to bully Xueyao, is she tired of living?

Yun Duoduo and Xiao Lin'er hurried forward and looked Xueyao up from head to toe. They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that she was safe and sound.

Then all eyes turned to Jin Peng, who could only smile awkwardly and hurriedly bowed, saying, "My name is Jin Peng. I have signed an alliance with Xue Yao. Nice to meet you all."

At this moment, he understood even more clearly that the joke he made before was indeed inappropriate, and he couldn't help feeling guilty.

"Jinpeng? Are you the legendary Peng bird?" Renhu widened his eyes, looking a little surprised.

"Yes, I am the former Jin Peng." Jin Peng admitted frankly with a hint of humility in his tone.

Xue Yu smiled lightly, a hint of teasing flashed in her eyes, "It seems that you have finally come to your senses and know that you need to turn over a new leaf."

Qing Yi nodded in agreement, "The fact that Xue Yao can accept you shows that you have indeed changed a lot."

Bao Ling asked curiously, "How did you two meet? Is there any story behind this?"

Xue Yao smiled slightly and looked at Jin Peng, indicating that he should answer the question. She had mentioned this matter briefly when she finished her retreat and left Taohua Mountain to have dinner with everyone at Meihua Lake, but she didn't go into details.

Jin Peng took a deep breath and began to recount their fate. From their initial meeting, to their later separation, to their current reunion, he recounted everything. Everyone listened with rapt interest, occasionally exclaiming in amazement.

"So that's how it is. It's an old friend. It seems that there is indeed a deep connection between you two." Su Xin sighed.

"Yes, fate is truly marvelous." Xue Yao said softly, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes. "My fate with each of you is God's will."

Bao Ling blinked and asked curiously, "Jin Peng, what are you going to do in the future? Will you stay with us?"

Jin Peng smiled slightly and looked at Xue Yao with a firm gaze. "Since I have signed an alliance with Xue Yao, I will naturally stay here and fight alongside everyone. I hope to contribute my strength to this team."

Xue Yu patted Jin Peng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Great, with you joining us, our strength will be taken to a new level."

Ren Hu said seriously, "But you must remember that we don't welcome anyone who makes trouble here. If you dare to disrespect Xue Yao in the slightest, I will be the first one to not let you go."

Jin Peng nodded and replied seriously, "Don't worry, Brother Renhu, I will never do anything to hurt Xueyao. I will prove my sincerity with practical actions."

Qing Yi smiled slightly, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes, "It seems that Brother Jin Peng is ready to fully integrate into our team. Well, with you joining us, we will have more strength."

Yun Duoduo and Xiao Lin'er also expressed their welcome, and the atmosphere of the entire team became more harmonious. Xue Yao looked at this group of like-minded partners in front of her, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

"Okay, since Jin Peng has joined us, we will be a family from now on." Xue Yao said with a smile.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Jin Peng was even more excited. He had never thought that he would be able to integrate into such a warm group one day.

"Since Jin Peng has joined us, what are our plans next?" Qing Yi asked.

"You should take the lead and decide according to your feelings." Xue Yao said seriously.

"Okay." Qing Yi responded and flew out first, leading the group towards the snow-capped mountains he sensed.
