Chapter Heaven and Earth Spiritual Heart Tree

Tu You had originally intended to have someone else host the two, but she had changed her mind.

Tu You brought the two to a courtyard.

Su Yu found the courtyard quite nice; Tushan's scenery was naturally very distinctive, and the view from this pavilion was excellent.

Not far away stood that towering tree.

Tu You poured tea for the two, and seeing Ling Wanqing looking at the tree, she said, "That is our Tushan's heaven and earth spirit heart tree."

"No one knows how long this tree has existed; no one is clear on that point."

"This heaven and earth spirit heart tree has also aided in Tushan's development. It can be said that if not for this tree, we would not have the Tushan of today."

"In the hearts of everyone in Tushan, this tree is a spiritual totem, a beacon of hope, and an inviolable existence."

"Every day, there are people who go to worship this tree."

Upon hearing this, Ling Wanqing replied, "I see."

Su Yu, however, knew about this tree.

Tu You looked at Ling Wanqing, barely glancing at Su Yu the entire time.

"Big sister, I still don't know your name?"

Ling Wanqing realized, wondering why Tu You felt so enthusiastic toward her.

"Just call me Sister Ling."

"Sister Ling, I don't know why, but the moment I saw you, I felt something different."

Ling Wanqing also roughly understood what was going on; the person before her had a high-level Bloodline, which allowed her to sense something different.

The attraction of the Power of Taiyin was etched into their very bones.

Although she had concealed it, for Tu You, there would still be an inexplicable attraction.

"Is that so? I didn't expect something like that," Ling Wanqing smiled.

"By the way, this is my husband, Su Yu."

Tu You spoke coldly, "I know." After saying this, she immediately stopped paying attention to Su Yu.

Su Yu actually thought this was fine; it saved him from having to speak.

He would just look at the scenery and drink tea; after all, this was his first time here, and he should enjoy it.

Although Tu You was dissatisfied with Su Yu, she wouldn't say it openly. It wouldn't do to criticize someone's husband as incompetent or unqualified in front of them.

So, just dealing with him perfunctorily was enough.

Ling Wanqing felt a bit awkward seeing this.

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu and found that Su Yu was ignoring her.

This guy; she would have to deal with him properly when they got back.

In the time that followed, Tu You and Ling Wanqing talked quite a bit.

"By the way, Sister Ling, you seemed interested in the heaven and earth spirit heart tree just now."

"How about this? Since people go to worship there every day anyway, I'll take you there to worship. It's said that this tree is very efficacious."

For a moment, Ling Wanqing did indeed want to go take a look.

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu, and Su Yu nodded.

Seeing this, Tu You said, "Great, let's go. I can also take you to see some other places while we're at it."

Ling looked at Su Yu, "Husband, you…"

"I'll just stay here; enjoying the view and drinking tea here is also quite good."

"Then we shall be going."

Su Yu watched the two leave. This was fine; Xiang Mu still needed some time, so he could take this opportunity to finish his own business.

Su Yu finished the tea in his hand and looked at the heaven and earth spirit heart tree.

"A good item," he said, then vanished.

No one knew where Su Yu was now.

At this moment, Su Yu had arrived above the heaven and earth spirit heart tree, seeing that there were actually many small saplings beside its roots.

However, these saplings were exceptionally sturdy; ordinary people could not remove them at all. Even if they did remove them, it would be useless, as the growth cycle was simply too long.

Furthermore, there was no method to nurture them, but Su Yu knew how.

That was why he had come here.

Su Yu looked at the saplings below, and with a wave of his hand, a sapling appeared in his own space.

Good, the first step was complete. Su Yu looked at where the sapling had vanished; no one would notice that one was missing.

And even if they discovered it, they wouldn't suspect them.

Next was the Path of Heartlessness.

Su Yu had already known the location while drinking tea just now; all of Tushan, including its hidden places, were completely visible to Su Yu.

Su Yu arrived above this place and watched Tu Luoning, who was currently receiving the Legacy below. There was still time before it ended; Xiang Mu needed to hurry.

A golden light flickered in Su Yu's eyes, and the Legacy of the Path of Heartlessness was copied by him.

His Illusory World Eye was becoming more and more useful; over these years, he had integrated quite a few functions into this Divine Ability.

After Su Yu finished, he looked toward the distant Ling Wanqing; the two of them had already arrived before the heaven and earth spirit heart tree.

Ling Wanqing looked at this place of worship; seeing it up close gave her a different feeling.

She seemed to sense that the heaven and earth spirit heart tree had a tree spirit.

Tu You looked at Ling Wanqing, "Sister Ling, let's begin."

The two clasped their hands together.

"Sister Ling, what wish did you make?"

"If I say it out loud, it won't come true. Let's go, let's head back."

She didn't want to keep Su Yu waiting for too long.

Seeing this, Su Yu returned to the small courtyard from earlier, and Ling Wanqing and the other returned not long after.

The three waited in the courtyard for a while.

At this moment, Tu You spoke, "It's about time; Xiang Mu should be coming out soon."

"This Lovesickness Tree is a unique trial of our Tushan. It is composed of an illusory world. Those who enter must suffer a thousand years of the pain of lovesickness."

"But that is ultimately an illusion. From the outside, it is only a moment, but for the person inside, it is different; the sensation is very real."

"Previously, some people entered with wavering hearts and, after coming out, developed an indelible Heart Demon."

"After all, my aunt truly endured it for a thousand years."

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing also understood the reason Tushan would do this; after all, lovesickness had a different significance in Tushan.

As the scent of tea wafted again, a figure appeared before the three.

The Xiang Mu before them had hollow eyes, yet there was a trace of determination.

For a long time, he could not recover his senses. Having experienced a thousand years inside, he finally understood the pain of Luoning's thousand-year wait, and Tushan's lovesickness was different.

It was even more painful; their emotions and sensations would be amplified several times over.

"Luoning, I'm sorry. I'm truly sorry. I came too late."

Tu You looked at Xiang Mu, "Hurry up. If you are any later, it will be too late."

Xiang Mu recovered his senses, "Hurry, I must go stop her immediately."

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing looked at Xiang Mu's state, "Rest assured, you will definitely be able to make amends."

Just then, Su Yu looked toward the heaven and earth spirit heart tree. "Oh, something like this happened? Interesting."

The four immediately arrived at that place.

The old woman on the side sensed the arrival of the four and had already looked toward Xiang Mu.

In the end, she sighed.

She also did not want to see Luoning Cultivate the Path of Heartlessness. She had watched the person from back then grow up, and she understood the consequences of cultivating the Path of Heartlessness very well.

The old woman looked at Luoning, "Luoning, I will ask you one last time: do you have any regrets?"

Luoning felt a bit moved; deep down, there was still some hope. Yes, she would look back one last time; if he appeared behind her, she would turn back.

But that was impossible, right?
