Chapter 350 The Treehouse

Lu Yao: "We went to the market today, and we'll be leaving early tomorrow morning."

Haiwei: "Wouldn't it be better to stay a few more days? Maybe we can get some new and interesting things in a couple of days. After all, there are still a lot of inland beasts that haven't arrived yet!"

Lu Yao: "We've already disturbed you for long enough. I really can't rest easy if we don't go back and check on you."

Haiwei: "Then I'll go back and prepare some things first, and I'll take you there first thing tomorrow morning."

The next morning, Haiwei piled up a lot of seafood and several barrels of rendered whale oil on the shore.

Fortunately, I had already sent some lava shells back beforehand, otherwise there wouldn't have been enough room in the space.

Lu Yao took out all the fresh fruit and nuts she had collected over the past two days.

Haiwei: "This is a gift for the Goddess, we can't accept it."

"If we don't make some room, we simply won't be able to fit all this stuff. Consider this a deposit; we'll be coming back to pick up the ice silk in a few days!"

Jia Liu found a piece of white ice silk with red flowers among a pile of gifts: "This ice silk is so beautiful, I want it! Uncle Haiwei, you must get more ice silk with flowers, I like it."

Haiwei solemnly replied, "Okay!"

After Lu Yao and the others left, Ling Guang found a large tree by the lake. He cut off some of the excess branches and polished out many planks.

However, he had only learned the basics of mortise and tenon joints from Xiangliu before, and didn't know how to splice wooden boards at all.

So they had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask Yao Zhong for help. He lived up to his reputation as a little genius at construction among the Sanmiao tribe, and quickly came up with a way to drill holes in the wooden planks and hammer wooden nails to connect them.

Yao Zhong has a complete set of Iron Bone Beast tools, all of which were made by hand when Yan Wei discovered the Sanmiao Kingdom.

On the last day of the winter season, the two finally finished their treehouse. Although the house was small, only a few square meters, it was complete in every way. It had doors and windows, and even a small wooden bed inside.

You can get to the bed by climbing two steps, and it's quite pleasant to sit on the steps with the bed against the wall and look out the door.

Ling Guang carefully decorated the small wooden house and entrusted the cubs to Mu Xue's care. Anyway, she had a lot of experience raising eagle cubs, so raising a Vermilion Bird cub shouldn't be difficult for her either.

The bed was covered with a thick animal skin rug, the window was made of warm lava shell, and the room was filled with wildflowers of all colors.

After everything was ready, he finally waited for his beloved female one evening.

Ling Guang stayed cooped up in his treehouse all day, with no fresh prey in the house. So Mu Xue and Li Luo prepared a sumptuous meal and invited Lu Yao and the others over for dinner.

At the cozy dinner table, Ling Guang enjoyed the delicious food while gazing affectionately at Lu Yao, slowly opening the floodgates of his inner emotions.

He whispered to Lu Yao about the endless longing he had felt for her during this time.

"Since we parted, I have been thinking of you every moment. Whenever the night is quiet, your image always appears in my mind, making me toss and turn and unable to fall asleep."

Ling Guang sighed softly and continued, "During this time, I wasn't idle either. I built a small wooden house by hand. Although the house wasn't big, I carefully selected and installed every plank and every nail."

Then, Ling Guang began to talk incessantly about the wooden house in detail. "The wooden house is decorated with many colorful flowers, and they smell especially sweet. Inside, I also made a unique wooden bed, covered with soft animal hides that I specially prepared for you."

The meal was finally over. Ling Guang could hardly contain his excitement and eagerness. He grabbed Lu Yao's hand and hurried toward a large tree not far away.

Lu Yao was dragged along by Ling Guang, her heart filled with doubt and curiosity, but she still obediently followed him. When they arrived at the foot of the big tree, Lu Yao's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief—she never imagined that the wooden house that had only existed in her imagination was actually built high up in the tree!

The wooden house looks small and exquisite, as if it came out of a fairy tale.

Ling Guang carried Lu Yao to the top of the tree and entered the wooden house.

The lava shell emitted a faint red glow, giving everything in the room a beautiful hue.

With the atmosphere so perfect, Ling Guang couldn't help but cup Lu Yao's face and kiss her passionately.

The two spent a sweet time there over the next few days.
