Just as Su Mo was about to say, "I’m attending a class at eight in the morning,"
the second half of the War Giant Tree’s words imdiately cut off the phrase Su Mo was about to utter.
"It will take so ti for the Spring of Life to be delivered. How about listening to a story while we wait?"
Thinking that since it would take a bit for the items to arrive, he might as well listen to a story. After all, he wasn’t doing anything else, and it was sothing to pass the ti.
He was uncertain about the reason behind these creatures’ strange sighs directed at him, and after saying what a pity, they agreed to his request and even wanted to tell him a story.
But since listening to a story wouldn’t harm him, and he could leave as soon as the stuff arrived, Su Mo nodded in agreent.
"Our War Giant Tree Clan was originally called the Stellar Giant Tree... The Insect Race appeared, initially weak, and sought protection from our clan..."
Su Mo listened briefly and quickly understood what they wanted to express.
Essentially, the Stellar Giant Tree Clan was once the strongest race in the universe. They loved peace, loved the cosmos, and Su Mo was unsure if it was true or not, given the lavish praise.
Then they sheltered the Insect Race, who, unwilling to remain beneath them, turned against them.
Because they trusted the Insect Race too much, they never expected an attack, and the Stellar Beast Clan suffered massive losses.
Subsequently, there was a great war between the Stellar Giant Tree Clan and the Insect Race. Due to the sneak attack, the Stellar Beast Clan was ultimately defeated, their "stellar" title taken away, forming an eternal feud between the two races.
Of course, this was just Su Mo’s understanding. In the tree shadow’s depiction, the War Giant Tree alien race was praised greatly, while the Insect Race was described with every filthy word possible.
Basically, every negative term could be found associated with the Insect Race, while the War Giant Tree aliens were the best.
Su Mo just listened without expressing any opinions.
He considered it a ans of passing the ti until the Spring of Life arrived.
"Does this Human Race warrior think I’m exaggerating?"
Su Mo shook his head politely, "No, no, go on. By the way, when will my Spring of Life arrive?"
"No rush. Please let continue."
"I don’t think it’s necessary anymore. My master is in critical condition, waiting for the Spring of Life to save him."
"I can see that you’re a person of character, traveling across the universe to this Extre South for your master’s sake. But precisely because of this, you should hear out."
Su Mo frowned and stayed silent, waiting for him to continue.
"You signed a contract with the Insect Race’s Mother Empress, didn’t you?"
Su Mo nodded, "Yes."
"Are you aware the Insect Race’s Mother Empress you contracted with isn’t the only one?"
"I’m aware."
The War Giant Tree nodded, "Indeed, given your strength, you should know these things. But are you also aware that over ti, the Insect Race can unilaterally break the contract and even devour those who made contracts with them?"
Su Mo didn’t respond, as Tu Hongwu had already inford him about this, so he was aware but chose not to say, wanting to see where the War Giant Tree alien’s narrative was going.
Seeing Su Mo’s expression, one of disbelief, it continued:
"Do you know why we sighed upon learning you signed a contract with the Insect Race?"
Su Mo shook his head, genuinely unaware this ti.
"Because signing that contract marked you as a target for restructuring, even if you returned and wiped out all the Insect Race, a new Mother Empress would be born within you, coexisting with you.
That’s also why we, the Stellar Giant Tree Clan, were defeated initially.
Of course, one might think nothing wrong will happen as long as the Mother Empress isn’t killed. But with ti, restructuring can still unilaterally break the contract and consu the host.
So, the mont you signed the contract with the Insect Race, you were marked for death.
We can give you the Spring of Life because we see your sincerity towards your master. However, we also hope that when you notice your body being consud by the Insect Race, you’ll visit our Extre South.
Or inform us, the War Giant Tree Clan, we’re not urging you to give up on life willingly, because no matter what we say, you wouldn’t believe it. We just hope you’ll notify us when you discover it."
As he spoke, a shadow of the War Giant Tree took out two drops of water, rich with Life Qi, handing them to Su Mo.
"Here is the Spring of Life you seek. Those below Super God Level need only one drop to heal all injuries. Taking two drops might offer a chance to break into Super God Level, although it’s rely a chance, mainly reliant on one’s talent."
The drops fell into Su Mo’s palm, quickly absorbed into his Little Cosmos.
Seeing the giant tree shadow slowly fade away, Su Mo quickly spoke up to stop him: "Wait!"
The departing tree shadow paused abruptly, then turned to Su Mo, asking, "Does this Human Race warrior have any other issues? Regarding the contract, we can’t solve it, just hope that you’ll..."
"It’s not about that. I want to ask if you have Space Channels to the Human Race."
"Give a mont; I’ll ask. By the way, which Star Realm does the Human Race belong to?"
Su Mo hesitated for a mont, tentatively speaking: "Have you heard of Earth?"
The War Giant Tree shook its large crown, "What Star Realm is Earth? I’ve never heard of it. Or did they recently rena it?"
"Earth is a planet, not a Star Realm."
"Could you describe the general area, perhaps, like which galaxy or star cluster it’s in?"
"The Solar System?"
"Never heard of it."
"Milky Way Galaxy?"
"Why don’t you just na the Star Realm?"
This left Su Mo standing there, stunned. Where exactly is Earth located in the Star Realm?
And what’s this Star Realm called? He only knew the area he was in was called Human Star Realm, but the others don’t recognize it.
Not only did they not recognize it, they hadn’t even heard of it, clearly indicating the so-called Human Star Realm was a na they ca up with, and it likely had another na in the universe. But the problem was, he didn’t know!
The scene quickly slipped into awkwardness.
The awkwardness for Su Mo was due to not knowing the way.
The gigantic tree shadow found it awkward as the locations ntioned were unknown, and it didn’t know about a Star Realm that birthed such a powerful being, which wasn’t awkward enough?
Suddenly, Su Mo seed to rember sothing, hurriedly taking out a white crystal stone from his Little Cosmos and calling out, "White War God, can you hear ?"
In the Three-Eyed Realm, Bai Yuanhao, who suddenly received a ssage from Su Mo, was taken aback, then glanced at Tu Hongwu, sipping on a drink and nibbling peanuts at a stone table not far away, silently taking a few steps into the distance, adjusting his view before connecting to Su Mo.
"Su Mo, where are you now?"
"White War God, I’m currently with the War Giant Tree Clan in the Extre South. I have obtained the Spring of Life and would like to know how to return and what’s the na of our location, as I plan to use their Space Channel to get back."
Bai Yuanhao was about to respond, but upon seeing Tu Hongwu gesturing at him, the long-ti partners just exchanged a glance and instantly understood each other.
Just as Bai Yuanhao was about to reveal "Lucky’s" location, his expression suddenly changed, face turning sorrowful, "Su Mo, I’m afraid you might not... sigh, you should hurry back, if..."
His words stopped halfway as he abruptly turned his head aside, closing his mouth.
Yet, seeing Bai Yuanhao’s deanor and hesitance on the screen, along with rembering sothing, Su Mo’s heart sank, his face turning pale, and he quickly asked:
"White War God, what do you an, what’s happening, and how’s my master?!!!"
