Chapter 89: Golden Giant Tree

Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Golden Giant Tree

The Diamond Level Mutants watched on. There was no way they were going to let Ye Yunyi just take such a massive Mutant Plant for himself!

After all, they were the ones who’d given him the Antidote Medicine!

Without the Antidote Medicine, he couldn’t have even gotten in!

Wouldn’t this be a complete and utter loss?

However, they didn’t show much of a reaction, merely keeping their thoughts to themselves.

In their opinion, there was no way Ye Yunyi could uproot this thing!

It was simply too enormous!

Its weight was practically immeasurable!

Even if all of them, a group of Diamond Mutants, worked together, they would probably just barely be able to uproot it.

Hearing their murmurs, Ye Yunyi turned to look at the group.

"It’s fine. I can pull it out myself," Ye Yunyi stated simply.

With that, he headed toward the Golden Giant Tree.

Hearing Ye Yunyi’s words, all the Mutants’ eyes widened in disbelief.

’This guy...’

’He’s actually going to uproot it alone?!’

’Is that even possible?’

’It’s completely impossible!’

However, smirks appeared on their faces, ready to watch Ye Yunyi make a fool of himself.

’Ye Yunyi’s reputation has gotten a little too high lately. We can’t let him keep this up!’

With this in mind, they didn’t try to stop him.

Instead, they stood to the side, looking on as if they were watching a show.

Meanwhile, Ye Yunyi reached the base of the Golden Giant Tree.

He stomped his foot!

DONG!

A massive boom rang out!

In that instant, the entire ground began to shake violently!

Then, the ground began to spiderweb with cracks!

Deep fissures spread out in every direction!

WHOA!

At the side, the crowd instantly erupted into a clamor!

That power was simply terrifying!

The watching Patriarchs’ eyes narrowed in shock.

’Lord Ye... he’s too incredible!’

The corners of the Diamond Level Mutants’ mouths twitched.

’They certainly didn’t possess that kind of strength!’

They then watched as Ye Yunyi repeated the action in several spots around the Golden Giant Tree.

A web of cracks instantly crisscrossed the earth, completely encircling the tree.

Then, Ye Yunyi moved to the main trunk of the Golden Giant Tree.

He braced himself and wrapped his arms around it.

"Hah!"

A low grunt of effort escaped him.

The muscles on Ye Yunyi’s arms bulged with power, as mighty as the talons of an ancient dragon!

The moment he exerted his strength, the Golden Giant Tree trembled!

Then came a series of CRACKING sounds from the Golden Giant Tree, like the snapping of roots when an ordinary person pulls a weed.

As the Golden Giant Tree was pulled out inch by inch, the onlookers couldn’t help but feel their hair stand on end.

’Terrifying!’

’This is absolutely terrifying!’

Then!

With another stomp of his foot, Ye Yunyi shot into the air, carrying the entire giant tree with him!

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

A rapid succession of snapping roots echoed out!

And then!

The entire Golden Giant Tree was completely uprooted by Ye Yunyi and lifted into the sky!

BOOM!

He then let it fall!

It smashed back onto the ground, shaking loose a large amount of soil from its roots.

The crowd: "..."

The Diamond Level Mutants: "..."

At that moment, they could only look at each other in stunned silence.

They all looked at one another.

’So... what now?’

They had originally planned to get a piece of the prize.

But now!

As they looked at Ye Yunyi, their eyes were filled with quavering fear.

’This guy’s strength is immense!’

’He probably wasn’t even using his full strength when he slaughtered Zhao Kang!’

’In that case, what Level is he?!’

’Mid-Diamond Stage?’

’Or even... Late-Diamond Stage?!’

In an instant, a storm of complex emotions raged within them.

The Patriarchs, on the other hand, erupted in cheers.

"Lord Ye is incredible!"

"Lord Ye! I knew this tree was meant for you!"

"We’ll clear a path for you!"

...

After a chorus of similar shouts, Ye Yunyi gave the order!

Everyone began the long journey of transporting the tree.

「A few hours later.」

Back in the garden, Dongfang Ruoyu and her companions were chatting.

Suddenly, they heard a knock on the door.

Dongfang Ruoyu opened it to find Yin Weimeng.

"Elder Sister, what’s wrong?"

Seeing Yin Weimeng’s panicked expression, Dongfang Ruoyu and the others grew concerned.

But before Yin Weimeng could answer, their eyes were drawn to something in the distance.

They almost slapped themselves in disbelief.

’What!’

’What in the world are we seeing?!’

’In the distance!’

’Is that a massive Golden Giant Tree slowly moving toward us?!’

’This...!’

"Lord Ye... he’s come back carrying a giant tree!"

Yin Weimeng’s words snapped them back to reality.

’Huh?!’

’That giant tree!’

’Underneath it!’

’Is that my husband?!’

And there he was!

Surrounded by a crowd of Mutants, Ye Yunyi was parading through the streets.

As he approached the garden, members of the Hundred Flowers Alliance had all come out to watch.

Ye Yunyi was carrying the colossal tree all by himself.

He carried it effortlessly.

He even wore a calm, nonchalant smile.

But!

Beneath his feet!

With every step he took, the immense weight caused the ground to crack and splinter!

If it weren’t for the cracking earth, the members of the Hundred Flowers Alliance might have actually believed he was carrying nothing but air.

As they gazed at Ye Yunyi, their eyes filled with starry-eyed admiration.

’Isn’t he the man of our dreams?’

’That strength!’

’That sense of security!’

’It’s completely off the charts!’

Meanwhile!

Dongfang Ruoyu and the others had also come over.

Ye Yunyi looked around.

He picked a spot.

"We can plant it right here!"

Ye Yunyi gave a signal, and the perceptive Patriarchs immediately understood.

They immediately rushed over to help.

They weren’t quiet about it, either.

"Lihui! Go home and get everyone from the family. Tell them all to come and help."

"Xiao Feng, you hurry back too. Tell the family that Lord Ye needs people and to get over here quickly."

...

One order after another came from the mouths of the Patriarchs, and soon everyone was bustling with activity.

As more and more Mutants arrived, clouds of dust filled the air.

Once Ye Yunyi had placed the giant tree into the large pit, everyone began to fill it with soil.

Before long, the Golden Giant Tree was fully planted.

Ye Yunyi watched, then had someone bring over the poisonous Exotic Beasts from before.

He had them buried directly in the ground at its base.

A moment later, the Golden Giant Tree extended slender branches downward and absorbed them all.

Afterward, the entire Golden Giant Tree seemed to be instantly refreshed, brimming with new life.

Seeing this, the Patriarchs all smiled.

They then tactfully took their leave.

As for the other Diamond Level Mutants, they wore looks of utter heartache.

’Damn it!’

’That was a massive Mutant Plant! How much could that have been worth?!’

’And Ye Yunyi just took it, just like that.’

Afterward, they exchanged glances.

They decided to just drop it.

’After all, who among us could possibly challenge him head-on right now?’

With that thought, they too departed.

Ye Yunyi returned to the garden to rest for a bit before heading back out.

Many members of the Hundred Flowers Alliance were now gathered in front of the Golden Giant Tree, admiring it.

They all casually drifted closer to Ye Yunyi.

Ye Yunyi, however, paid them no mind.

But!

The next moment!

A slip of paper was pressed into Ye Yunyi’s hand.
