Landed Xumi: There is no problem with my numbers!

On the other hand, I just received a strange request from someone.

Lin Feng exchanged glances with a "Buyer" next to him whose belly was almost bloated, and saw a visible gratitude in each other's eyes.

"You ate too much and don't want to be discovered by your juniors? Really?"

Suddenly, I had a very special sense of déjà vu, as if the people here were not gods, but just ordinary humans.

After a pause in his thoughts, he inexplicably felt that this originally deserted palace had a sense of life. He shook his head and decided to finish the work at hand as soon as possible so that the two little ones could be truly reunited.

"Is this the new branch of the World Tree? Is this what we originally looked like?"

After the Tree King volunteered to clean up those dessert boxes, Nashida, who had announced the disappearance of the magic scale disease, also took the initiative to care about Lin Feng's current progress.

Coming to the table, I curiously picked up the branch that was still full of life even after being broken off.

Nashida could feel a resonance between herself and the new branch.

"Well, although it looks like a branch, as long as the World Tree itself does not wither, this thing will always have vitality.

I've researched this, and no matter how you consider it, this is indeed the most suitable material to serve as a carrier for your souls and to assist in the recovery of your consciousness."

Even though they were both products of the earth vein, this new branch was different from the garbage held by those Abyss Mages.

As an extremely precious material picked from the core area of ​​the World Tree, it would be basically impossible for others to get this thing if they did not have the two Grass Gods around.

"It's been a while since I got the new branches, and I've already got some ideas.

However, due to the special circumstances of the two of you, and the fact that you have endured five hundred years of the influence of forbidden knowledge, the Tree King's level of damage is the highest I have ever seen.

To be safe, I'll try it out a few times before starting tonight."

".Tonight?"

Subconsciously turning her gaze towards the other "self" who was drinking tea, Nashida had not expected that this day would come so soon.

"Oh, don't expect too much. This is just a container built for me to facilitate the recovery of my soul. I will probably only be able to meet you in this state for a long time.

But it doesn't really matter, does it? After all, I'm not dissatisfied with this body right now."

After all, theoretically, the two of them cannot exist at the same time, at least they cannot be "alive" at the same time.

The Tree King knew that there was no way to avoid this kind of crowding out of each other's existence.

If you want her to truly "come back to life", not only does she need to restore her soul to its fullness first, but the subsequent steps may also require the little girl's sage to spend a lot of thought.

"."

Noticing that Nashida and the Tree King cast their gazes at him simultaneously, Lin Feng did not intend to conceal his thoughts, but spoke frankly and explained:

"——The first stage at present is indeed to ensure the integrity of the soul as much as possible. External actions will be temporarily guaranteed by the state of elemental incarnation.

However, because the incarnation method I taught the Tree King earlier combined the immortal method of Liyue and the knowledge of Apep's followers for changing life forms,

So after I help you adjust it a little, it shouldn't be much different from a normal life form. If a normal demon god isn't very familiar with you, it probably wouldn't be able to tell you two apart."

He paused briefly and glanced at the two Nashidas leaning against each other.

Ignoring expressions and demeanor, it would be difficult for Lin Feng to figure out who was who just by looking at their appearance.

"As for the next step of complete recovery after the soul's state is fully restored,

Although I only have a rough idea at the moment, it should be feasible.”

"Hmm? Is there any way to avoid conflict between us as much as possible?"

Blinking, Nashida noticed that her sage seemed very confident, so she shifted her gaze to see what special ideas he had.

"—It's not too complicated. The essence of your conflict is that you are both 'Demon Gods' from the World Tree, occupying the positions that originally belonged to the same individual."

"But the origin of life on Teyvat is far more than one, and the species on this planet also originated from somewhere else."

"Since we are both top-tier elemental beings, I intend to use this world's inherent life-giving methods to construct a false identity for the Tree King, making her 'disappear' in the World Tree's judgment."

"--To put it simply, as long as one of the new students no longer follows the rules of the original system, then with this barrier in place, you will naturally no longer clash."

Noticing that both Nashida and the Tree King had thoughtful expressions on their faces, but didn't seem to fully understand,

After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng took out a blue crystal containing a drop of "water" and showed them the power of it.

——Although I always start with the authority of the gods, there is no big problem in taking the ancient dragon first.

With the power that Villette had sent him, it was not very difficult to gain the power of the water element.

Just practice the control of water element when you are with Inazuma.

Then one day in the future, when they arrive in Fontainebleau, they will use the power of the complete water element to "create life" and the power of the fetal sea to help the Tree King put on a special shell, and the two of them will naturally be able to coexist without any interference from each other.

"You mean, without changing my true nature, I can use the power of the ancient dragon's laws to disguise myself, so that the 'world' will mistakenly believe that the new me is a different individual from the original me?"

"While it's certainly feasible once the conditions are met, it's certainly a solution worthy of an Adventer."

I've never seen anyone want to use a complete elemental power to solve such a small problem before.

Looking at Nashida beside him, the Tree King was somewhat surprised to find that the little girl was not at all surprised, as if she also thought this kind of thing was natural.

".Huh, how lucky I am! I even thought this might all be a dream."

"It changed the entire 'fate' of Nashida and me. Even I never imagined such an ending."

Even in dreams, I never expected that such a person who could solve all problems would appear before me.

In just two days, the ending that was about to be completely forgotten turned into a beautiful one that I wanted to immerse myself in forever.

The Tree King felt the golden sunlight shining on him from the window, and recalled his previous fate which almost gathered all the "misfortunes". For a moment, he felt as if he was in another world.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem.

Restoring your soul and being conscious don't conflict with each other. I've also made an appointment to take you to Mondstadt."

Outside the original meditation room, Nashida was a little worried because the Tree King temporarily dissolved his body condensed from elements.

Lin Feng, who was about to take action, patted the little girl's head behind him, bent down and spoke in a calm tone to make her feel a little more at ease.

"I wish you all the best. Guoba and I will prepare a celebratory meal. Let's eat together later."

I let out a long sigh, knowing that I was too concerned and confused.

Nashida calmed down her confused mood, shook her head, and decided to put the utmost confidence in her knight as she had in the past.

Chapter 435: Tree King: What reward do you want? A pat on the head like Nashida, or

The next morning, inside Jingshan Palace.

Nashida had been standing in front of a sapling with green leaves and white branches for a long time.

"."

After a moment of silence, she looked at the small tree in front of her that was shaking its branches slightly to greet her. She had never expected that this would be the result of her sage's hard work all night.

"Why is it like this? I thought..."

I was anxious outside for a long time, and I was always curious about what the Tree King's soul container would look like.

But after she prepared breakfast for three people, Nashida, full of anticipation, finally saw the small tree that looked similar to her original state.

"You should know this clearly. After all, your appearance is completely linked to your strength level."

"The Tree King's current condition is much worse than when you were born. If you want your soul to recover as quickly as possible, keeping it like this is the best option."

After studying for a long time, I finally gave up on all those fancy things.

After communicating with the Tree King, Lin Feng imitated the method she had used to graft Nashida, and used alchemy and elemental power to find a way to maximize the efficiency of soul recovery:

- Before the soul is restored to its fullness, it remains in the seedling stage.

With the help of the roots of the sacred tree below and the connection with the earth veins, it recovers to its full potential, neither growing nor changing. It is not a new demon god, but just a "seedling with the potential to grow into a demon god."

In order to be able to get stuck in the stage before affecting Nashida, Lin Feng and the Tree King put a lot of thought into it.

"Don't worry, it's just a temporary container. You can think of my current state as 'healing'."

"My consciousness can condense into a physical form in extremely distant places with the help of the Void System, and it won't have any impact on my daily life, right?"

The Tree King gently walked forward and touched the little guy's head. Obviously in a good mood, he was enjoying the relaxed feeling of his soul slowly recovering.

"I was just a little surprised. I thought you would at least be able to move your body freely."

"Free movement? Of course."

???

Before Nashida, who was full of questions, could open her mouth to express her doubts, the sapling in front of her took two steps forward as if to demonstrate.

After all, it is not really a child. For the tree king, when encountering danger, let alone running away from the ground, he can even drill into the ground and escape like Lanaro.

In a lively and cheerful tone, he demonstrated to the little one what he could do.

The soul is no longer weakening but is slowly recovering. After the biggest crisis threatening survival has been resolved, the Tree King now feels more "alive" than yesterday.

"Hmm, your skills are quite good! Did you practice on this?"

"If my vision hasn't faded, many of these dishes are Liyue-style, right?"

The Tree King glanced at the dishes on the table with great interest. The dishes were impeccable in both color and presentation. After praising them from the bottom of his heart, he was also a little surprised that Nashida had mastered such a good cooking skill while he was away.

"Actually, my level is still far behind. I probably won't be able to catch up with what I ate in Liyue in a short time. As for why there are so many Liyue dishes."

He paused, glanced at Guoba who was running around on the ground chasing Lanna Luo, and then glanced at Lin Feng who was helping them to serve rice.

Nashida shook her head, feeling that this kind of thing was not easy to explain at the moment.

"Hmm, is that so? I understand."

He narrowed his eyes, smiled and nodded, and stopped asking questions when Nashida looked at him with a puzzled expression.

A moment later, on the sofa next to the floor-to-ceiling window.

Because everyone present had a special liking for the sun, after the dinner, they all chose to relax here.

".Well, can you tell me about the changes in the past five hundred years?"

"It's rare to have had five hundred years of peace. I think this world has made considerable progress since I left, right?"

"."

There was a small "Buyer" sitting on each side, but one was eating dessert and the other was drinking tea.

Looking left and right, I felt a little uncomfortable with being watched by two pairs of emerald green eyes.

Lin Feng looked at Nashida and the Tree King who divided the tea and dessert into three portions each. For some reason, he always felt that there was a subtle sense of tacit understanding between the two little ones.

"Unfortunately, the House of the Lords has been in a state of near complete stagnation for five hundred years since you left. Apart from the winter, other countries haven't seen much change either.

However, in the past two years, I have been trying to change this situation, and Xumi's technological development is gradually affecting Liyue, Fontaine, and Mondstadt."

Lin Feng was too exhausted to complain about the abstract development model of Teyvat, and for a moment he didn't know how to explain to the Tree King the situation where almost everyone was giving up and some countries were even regressing.

".Apart from the winter solstice, nothing much has changed? Well, that's not really surprising."

Tilting his head slightly, he looked at the bright sunshine outside the window. After hearing this answer, the Tree King seemed to have expected it.

"Although enforced peace can theoretically create an environment more conducive to development, without the driving force behind it, judging by the war damage sustained, a return to the level of five hundred years ago would probably be considered good."

The impact of the Kanreya disaster was extremely widespread, even openings appeared in Mondstadt, allowing monsters from the abyss to emerge. Countless valuable technologies and talents were lost.

Although she had some expectations in her heart, she was able to accept the result after hearing it.

“However, there has been no progress in development, but the overall situation has changed significantly.

Xumi, Liyue, Mondstadt and even Fontaine all have extremely close cooperation. There is also a guy in the desert who knows you and has become our reliable ally.

If you still remember Apep, you can go there to meet her if you have the chance."

He took the dessert handed to him by Nashida and ate two pieces, then drank a sip of the tea that the Tree King had helped to brew.

Because it was a little too considerate, Lin Feng felt that if he didn't want to be turned into a useless person, it would be better not to lie in Xumi every day until he finished the things at hand.

"Apep? She's a stubborn creature."

"After being deceived once, she has become quite wary of all gods."

He blinked and glanced over curiously. Judging from the tone of the sage little fellow, it was obvious that the relationship between Apep and Xumi was more than just "peaceful and harmonious".

"It's somewhat similar to your current situation. I helped her get rid of the abyss pollution.

Coupled with my current status in the Elemental Law system, most elemental dragons can probably be considered our loyal allies."
