Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

Wu Xie felt that compared to the Emperor's Rest Tree in front of him, the Bronze Tree he had seen in the Qinling Mountains was nothing.

It's unbelievable that someone as small as Ali could have such a massive true form...

The friends who were watching Little Ali reveal her true form suddenly felt an aura colder than a snow mountain spreading.

This aura ignored the protection of their robes, as if it had directly invaded their bones.

Fortunately, the chill was only felt for a moment, and then an icy blue protective barrier rose around him, isolating him from the aura.

Su Yunqing touched her nose, almost forgetting that these little brats weren't like the tough kids at home, and almost caused a disaster.

After providing extra protection for the children, Su Yunqing was able to work more freely.

The once pitch-black outer space was invaded by ice and was gradually turning into a snowfield.

On a vast, white snowfield, the lush and verdant Dixiu trees stand out prominently.

The vines clinging to the Emperor Tree had shrunk their size the moment the ice and snow appeared, disappearing to who knows where.

The Emperor Tree, however, seemed unaffected by the cold, stretching itself out even more comfortably.

The presence of his childhood companions made him feel comfortable and at ease, and he instinctively wanted to get closer.

"Pop...pop...pop..."

The sound of bubbles bursting rang out one after another. Su Yunqing held the world's primordial energy she had recently accumulated in her hand and crushed them one by one.

The shattered energy was casually kneaded together by Su Yunqing, transforming into a white ribbon that floated swaying towards the Emperor's Rest Tree.

The Emperor Tree flashed with light, and the central part of its thick trunk gradually became transparent.

A slender figure emerged from the transparent torso.

He looked to be a young man in his mid-twenties, standing there quietly with his eyes closed.

This was the first time they had seen Su Li as an adult. His features hadn't changed much, only his soft facial lines had become more angular, making him look a little more mature than his previous boyish appearance.

What they found most unacceptable was...

The grown-up Ali is not the healthy and lively person they remember.

Zuli's exposed skin was covered with bright red lines, like fine porcelain that had been broken and crudely glued back together.

A casual remark made when we first met now feels like a knife, piercing straight into my heart.

"Um... the previous body... exploded, this is the new one."

I remember how lightly and easily the child said those words, but I never imagined it would turn out like this.

It turns out he had been enduring this kind of pain all along.

It felt like something was stuck in my throat, and I couldn't say a word.

Wu Xie and Fatty Wang had naturally heard them mention the reason why Ali was sent to this world, and now, seeing the young man's miserable appearance, they felt extremely sorry for him.

The silvery-white ribbon fluttered and arrived at the heart of the Emperor's Rest Tree, wrapping the broken youth like a cocoon, its shimmering light captivating the attention of everyone present.

After an unknown amount of time, the white, cocoon-like outer shell gradually dimmed, as if it were being absorbed by the entity inside.

It gradually faded away along with the towering, sky-covering Emperor's Rest Tree until it disappeared...

Only the figure of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy remained standing in the void. As the last trace of the Emperor's Rest Tree disappeared, the sleeping boy fell downwards.

The five of them tensed up, their bodies moving faster than their minds, and they rushed toward the boy's fallen figure.

Su Yunqing didn't even need to move; with just a slight reach of his hand, his little apprentice was in his grasp.

Zhang Qiling was the first to rush to Su Yunqing, looking at the boy in Su Yunqing's arms with concern.

The four people following behind were too breathless to even look at Su Yunqing with concern.

"Don't worry, everything's fine now. You'll be a healthy little piece of wood from now on."

Su Yunqing gave a slight smile to reassure the group.

"Master Yunqing, Ali..." Wuxie stammered for a long time, but didn't know what to ask. The dog's eyes were full of heartache.

"Alright, alright, the little rascal is fine now. Come on, let you play for a while."

Su Yun calmly comforted the puppy, then placed the little one in Wu Xie's arms.

The most heartbreaking time is over. His child is now healthy and well in front of him, and he is in a good mood now.

Wu Xie held Ali in his arms, somewhat bewildered...

Ok……

Why is it different from what I imagined?

Shouldn't we tell them about Ali with love and compassion?

Something seems off about Master Yunqing's art style.

If Su Li were awake right now, he would calmly wave his hand and say, "That's right, the style is wrong. When has his master's style ever been right?"

Hei Xiazi looked at Xiao Ali, who was nestled in Wu Xie's arms, with a rosy complexion and long, even breath, and subconsciously reached out and pinched her.

"Snapped……"

"Snapped……"

Two large blouses simultaneously slammed down on Hei Xiazi's head, causing him to stumble and nearly fall into Wu Xie's arms.

Fatty Wang reached out and pulled Wu Xie along...

"Oh my god..."

Black Bear was beaten twice by himself, and he was still a little dazed, clutching his head.

"Pfft..."

Su Yunqing looked at this group of little brats and found it extremely amusing, so she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Very good, very good. The old father is pleased.

"Well……"

"Gulu gulu..."

Pipi the Blind is not so easily suppressed. Although the Black Bear, who was just suppressed by Zhang Qiling and Xie Yuchen, did not make another move, he is not one to settle down.

Holding a large, fragrant bowl, she secretly moved closer to Wu Xie.

The four looked at the black object with mixed feelings, but unexpectedly, they heard a 'gurgling' sound coming from Wu Xie's arms.

The sleeping boy was clearly not yet awake, but his mind was already subconsciously searching for the source of the fragrance, his nose twitching as he looked around.

Xie Yuchen: ...

Zhang Qiling: …

Wuxie: ...

Fatty Wang: Judging by the time, the child is really hungry.

The bear was beaming with pride, grinning broadly.

Su Yunqing was both amused and exasperated. "Black Bear, you really are something else."

"Ugh, blind man, I'm hungry..."

Su Li felt so sleepy that she could barely keep her eyes open, but the familiar aroma also made her stomach feel empty and she desperately needed to be fed.

Struggling with my heavy eyelids, I squinted and saw a dark figure in front of me trying to make its presence known.

It subconsciously begs to be fed.

"Come on, get up and eat something, then go back to sleep."

Black Bear continued to seduce.

Su Li groggily opened his eyes, and good heavens, there were five heads in a circle, staring straight at him.

"Um... Good morning?"

Still somewhat bewildered, Su Li had no idea what she was doing before going to sleep. When she opened her eyes and saw her friends surrounding her, she blurted out something without thinking.
