Su Moyu stopped and looked forward. He saw a towering ancient tree in front of him.
On the trunk of the ancient tree, there is a ladder made of vines winding up around the trunk.
"Your Highness, please follow me up." the young man saluted Su Moyu respectfully, then stepped on the rattan ladder and walked slowly up the tree.
"Your Highness, according to the regulations of the family, this Yuanyang tree is the Holy tree of the family. Generally speaking, no one is allowed to fly nearby, let alone directly to the top of the tree." Yan Ying explained.
"I see." Su Moyu nodded faintly.
While talking, several people had climbed tens of feet along the rattan ladder, but they were still quite far from the top of the tree.
But just then, the young man suddenly stopped and turned to Su Moyu and said, "don't blame your highness. The sacrificial Lord is receiving guests, so please wait here and meet you immediately after the sacrificial Lord's reception!"
With that, the boy patted on the trunk, the rough bark began to sag inward, and finally formed a spacious room.
"OK." Su Moyu nodded without any objection and went into the room.
"Uncle Yan, you've worked hard this trip. Please tell me about your work with me." the young man turned around and said to Yan Ying and others.
"OK!" Yan Ying nodded and arched his hand at Su Moyu: "Your Highness, I'll leave first."
Then he and the young man went down the Yuanyang tree.
Only Su Moyu, ya'er, Xiaoyu and Luo Yunxi remained in that room.
"It seems that things are not as simple as I thought!" after entering the room, Luo Yunxi unkindly lay on the soft couch, twisted her hair with her fingers and said slowly.
"What do you mean?" Su Moyu asked with a frown.
"A guard captain, even if he has prejudice against mankind, how dare he openly find fault with his future master? Unless he has a hard enough background behind him to shake your future rule."
"Moreover, as the heir of the king of the family, you have gone through all kinds of hardships to return to the tree sea, but the sacrifice of the family does not come to meet you personally, but receives guests at the top of the tree. What does this mean?"
Asked here, Luo Yunxi's eyes stared at Su Moyu.
"You mean... He didn't receive visitors, but deliberately delayed seeing me?" Su Moyu thought and replied.
Luo Yunxi shook his head and said, "it's just a possibility. Another possibility is that he is indeed receiving guests, and the guest's identity is so noble that he has to let you, the future king, wait."
"Moreover, there are some special reasons why he can't let you meet that guest. What do you think of by combining my above words?"
Luo Yunxi looked eagerly at Su Moyu.
Su Moyu thought for a moment and suddenly got up and said, "the guest the sacrificial Lord met is Nie Ao's backstage!"
"That's right!" Luo Yunxi jumped up from the soft couch and said to Su Moyu, "moreover, that guy is probably your next enemy."
When Su Moyu heard this, he shook his head and said, "I thought that feather people live in a corner and should be simple. I didn't expect that there would be intrigues here."
Luo Yunxi sighed: "no matter how simple you are, there will be disputes. As long as you are still alive, you will never be free from intrigue."
Su Moyu nodded impatiently, leaned against the door of the room and looked at the top of Yuanyang tree.
Yuanyang tree is very high. With his current eyesight, he can't see the top layer.
"What are you looking at?" Luo Yunxi asked.
"Since you want to fight, at least you have to see who your opponent is?" Su Mo Yu said impatiently.
"It's up to you." Luo Yunxi shrugged, stretched out her hand and pulled ya'er aside, muttering that she didn't know what to say.
In the whole process, only the little fish said nothing.
I don't know how long later, when Su Moyu's patience was about to run out, a figure finally appeared again above the Yuanyang tree.
And as soon as they appeared, there were three people.
The two people walking in front were wearing the same white clothes. The difference was that one of them was carrying double swords behind his back, and the other was not carrying weapons.
More than a hundred feet apart, Su Moyu still saw the two people's facial features with his extraordinary eyesight.
Both of them should be old, with white hair and wrinkles.
Moreover, from the look of their faces, neither of them seemed happy.
Behind them was a dirty middle-aged man in black. The middle-aged man was unkempt and his clothes were covered with patches. He didn't look like an expert.
When Su Moyu looked at them, the old man in white with a knife also felt Su Moyu's sight and suddenly turned his head and stared down.
It was this look that made Su Moyu cool from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet. He couldn't help retreating until he hit the wall.
"What's the matter?" the little fish next to him noticed the abnormality first.
"Good sharp eyes, across so far, make me shudder!" Su Moyu said with some fear.
When Su Moyu said this, everyone in the room was surprised.
They all know what Su Mo and Yu Xiu do, but he is so strong that he shudders when the other party looks at him from a distance. How strong should the other party be?
"It seems a little troublesome!" Luo Yunxi also began to have a headache. Although she is good at stratagem, if the strength gap between them is too large, stratagem alone is not enough to make up for it.
Just then, footsteps suddenly came from the door. Two old men in white who had been on a tree more than a hundred feet high a moment ago now came to Su Moyu's room.
"Is that it? It doesn't look like much!" the old man with the knife on his back snorted coldly.
Another old man in white echoed, "I don't think the return wind has gone away."
When they were talking, the middle-aged man in black suddenly appeared in front of them and said, "how can you walk so fast?"
While talking, he seemed to turn around and saw Su Moyu and others. With a smile on his face, he said, "it's your highness. I'll introduce him. The elder carrying the knife is Jin Yi, a sacrifice of Zhengyu. This one is Shitan, a sacrifice of Baiyu. Zhengyu, Baiyu and our black feather are the three main branches of Shuhai feather people."
Hearing that the man in black introduced himself, Su Moyu had to hug his fist and salute.
However, Jin Yi and Shi Tan didn't look at Su Moyu at all. They turned and left. Before they left, they said to the man in Black: "Feng Mo, you'd better think about what we said before!"
But Feng Mo in black smiled and said, "don't worry, two elders. I didn't take a word of what you said just now. I've forgotten it all now."
"You!" they turned back at the same time, stared at Feng Mo for a long time, and left angrily.
After the two men disappeared into the field of vision, Feng Mo in black sighed heavily, then slowly turned his head, knelt down on one knee towards Su Moyu and said, "the black feather people of Shuhai sacrifice Feng Mo, see your highness!"
