Jiang Lin thought of a lot of explanations in his mind, but was stunned by what Zong Yu said.
Seeing Zong Yu's happy smile without any abnormal expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you surprised? Don't you have anything to ask?"
Zong Yu was bewildered: "Ah? What do you want to ask?"
Seeing that he really didn't care, Jiang Lin didn't mention it anymore. He looked around and asked curiously, "Where's Qingluo? Why isn't she here?"
Logically speaking, his coming out is such a big deal, and Qingluo should be the first to know about it since they signed a soul contract.
Zong Yu was also surprised that this girl hadn't come yet, but this didn't stop him from giving her a slap in the face: "Humph, you see, I sensed the news that you had come out of confinement, and I dropped everything and ran over immediately. Unlike Qingluo, that heartless little girl, who didn't even come for such an important event, you really loved her in vain, it would be better..."
Jiang Lin was curious: "How about this?"
Zong Yu raised his head and said confidently, "Of course you should be nice to me. It would be best if you could make more delicious food every day."
Jiang Lin: "... You are really promising."
A great demon like you is trying to please a small tree demon just because of his stuttering
While speaking, Jiang Lin's spiritual sense swept across the entire Baihu Ridge and found Qingluo's location in Xiantao Mountain.
The aura and demonic power of the other party were turbulent. Jiang Lin frowned, his worry evident in his eyes. He said something to Zong Yu and dodged over.
Zong Yu stayed where he was, pursed his lips, and followed.
Xiantao Mountain is the mountain that the old monkey is in charge of.
That day, Jiang Lin gave him many fruit tree seeds. These seeds had been improved for several generations and nourished by the spiritual energy of Baihu Ridge. The fruits grown from them were sweet and plump, with fragrant flesh.
The old monkeys were overjoyed. They loved eating peaches, so they planted more. Later, with Jiang Lin's consent, they renamed the mountain Xiantao Mountain.
It should be early spring now, the fairy peaches are gone, and the peach blossoms all over the mountains are in full bloom.
However, due to the spiritual power that Jiang Lin had just poured on the flowers, all the petals fell off in an instant and formed heavy fruits. The little monkeys were extremely happy.
When Jiang Lin found Qingluo, she was sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a light green light flashing on her body.
Next to her stood a beautiful lady in pink with fair skin and pretty face.
Jiang Lin saw that the other party's true form was a peach tree.
The peach demon was very timid and trembled when he saw Jiang Lin and Zong Yu.
Jiang Lin asked her what happened, and Tao Yao answered tremblingly.
It turned out that just now, when Jiang Lin came out of retreat and irrigated the world with his spiritual power, almost all the plants and monsters benefited from it.
Qingluo's reaction seemed more obvious. She was originally admiring the flowers with Tao Yao. She only had time to say a word to the other party before closing her eyes and sitting down.
After Tao Yao finished speaking, she glanced at Jiang Lin secretly with her sparkling eyes.
Jiang Lin didn't look at her, but looked at Qingluo carefully, then sensed the other party's condition through the Nine Spirit Technique, and suddenly smiled.
"That's a good thing," he said.
Perhaps it was because it was in harmony with his soul. This time, his skills had reached perfection, and the original demonic power in his body was transformed into the wood-type spiritual power of the Nine Spirits Art.
Although his apparent strength had not increased significantly, and his combat power was even worse than before, in fact, Jiang Lin's current demon body had broken free from the shackles of the corpse demon, and had cultivated a broader path and a longer-term future.
Qingluo got the greatest benefit and entered into a state of meditation immediately.
If Jiang Lin guessed correctly, the end of Qingluo's meditation this time would definitely be a drastic change compared to before.
He was indeed right.
Qingluo's meditation did not last long this time. After about two hours, the spiritual light on her body suddenly became brighter.
Under Jiang Lin's gaze, the fair and tender girl in front of him suddenly grew taller, and soon grew into a girl of twelve or thirteen years old.
Jiang Lin:
He looked at the scene in rare astonishment.
Qingluo opened her eyes and saw her favorite father Jiang Lin. She ignored everything else and cheered, throwing herself into Jiang Lin's arms: "Dad!"
If it were any other time, Jiang Lin would definitely hug his baby daughter happily.
But at this moment he was still a little confused.
I was just in seclusion, but my lovely daughter has grown up so big in an instant
Jiang Lin, who became a father for the first time, had mixed feelings.
"What's wrong with Dad?" Qingluo didn't wait for her father's response and looked up curiously.
Jiang Lin adjusted his mindset and told himself that his twelve-year-old daughter was still pretty and cute, and he finally calmed down.
He smiled, touched Qingluo's head, raised his hand and took out a water mirror: "Look at yourself."
Qingluo looked over in confusion and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar girl standing inside.
She reached out and touched her face, and the person inside also reached out and touched his face.
Every time she jumped, the people inside jumped too.
"Ah!" Qingluo suddenly cried out, "I'm grown up!"
She cried out in joy, looking up at Jiang Lin: "Dad, I'm grown up!"
Still the familiar cute little girl, Jiang Lin cleared the last bit of uncomfortable feeling in his heart and said with a smile: "Yes, our Qingluo has grown up. There will be a celebration banquet tonight. Dad will make a big cake for you!"
Qingluo happily walked up to her little friend and said, "Taohua, I'm grown up!"
Taohua congratulated her softly.
She ran to Zong Yu, who had become too quiet since a while ago, and said loudly: "Uncle Zong, I'm grown up!"
As if that wasn't enough, she stretched out her hand and compared it with joy: "Now I am taller than you."
Zong Yu: “…”
He looked at Qingluo unhappily, snorted heavily, and turned into a stream of light and disappeared.
He often had a bad face in front of Qingluo, but Qingluo didn't care. She happily prepared to find her other friends, and couldn't wait to show them the brand new, grown-up self.
Jiang Lin, on the other hand, always felt that Zong Yu was in a bad mood.
He found Zong Yu in his yard.
Zong Yu sat on the tall and big Yunmu body.
Although Yunmu has transformed into a demon, as a tree, most of the time he still prefers to transform into his original form and take root in the soil.
He was old and good-tempered, and he never minded the little monsters crawling on his body and playing, or even swinging on it.
As for Zong Yu, it doesn't matter whether he cares or not. It's useless anyway.
Jiang Lin came over, and Zong Yu saw him but said nothing.
Jiang Lin said, "Mr. Yun, Zong Yu and I have something to say."
Yunmu understood, and with a flash of green light, the huge trees disappeared.
Zong Yu looked at him unhappily: "What? I don't even have a place to sit."
Jiang Lin sat down directly on the ground and waved at him: "Sit down."
Zong Yu said with disgust: "The ground is so dirty."
But having said that, he still walked honestly to Jiang Lin and sat down.
Jiang Lin asked him: "Why are you unhappy?"
Zong Yu denied: "I didn't!"
Jiang Lin laughed: "Your lips are pouting so much that you can hang something on them, and you're not unhappy yet?"
Zong Yu suddenly fell silent.
Jiang Lin thought the other party was unwilling to speak, but suddenly heard a very light voice:
"I've been a child for many years. When will I grow up?"
