Under the ancient spirit tree.

Xiao Nuo looked at the pointed leaf-shaped spirit pattern on the palm of his left hand in astonishment. This spirit pattern was very small and delicate, and even the subtle lines on it were quite clear...

"What's this?"

Xiao Nuo stood up and looked at Yan Beishan approaching with confusion.

Yan Beishan nodded repeatedly, and while he retreated in shock, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Brother Xiao is indeed destined to our Holy Tree City. Even the Ancient Spirit Tree recognized you..."

"Recognize me as a person?"

Xiao Nuo was puzzled.

Yanying's big eyes also showed confusion.

Yan Beishan pointed at the spiritual pattern on Xiao Nuo's palm, "This spiritual seal is the spiritual energy given to you by the ancient spiritual tree. Through this seal, you can release a kind of wood power..."

"Really?" Xiao Nuo's eyes lit up, "What kind of power?"

Yan Beishan replied, "This power is called the 'Hand of the Forest'. It is a big hand created with the power of vegetation. It has great majesty on both offense and defense!"

After a pause of conversation, Yan Beishan stood back slightly.

"I'll demonstrate it to you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Beishan suddenly released a powerful wood spiritual energy, and then, the ground beneath the three of them shook violently...

"Boom!"

Then, the stone bricks on the ground exploded, and huge tree roots rushed out of the surface. Yan Beishan raised one hand and exerted force from a distance...

"Crack!" Suddenly, many tree roots began to twine together, and then turned into a seven or eight meter long wooden hand.

Yanying was so frightened that she quickly hid behind her.

But a bright light appeared in Xiao Nuo's eyes.

The huge wooden hand moves according to Yan Beishan's thoughts. It can be spread out with five fingers or clenched into a fist. It looks like a giant hand protruding from the earth...

Xiao Nuo tried to control the power in his palm, but it failed to achieve the same effect as Yan Beishan.

"It doesn't seem possible..." Xiao Nuo said.

"Hahahaha..." Yan Beishan smiled gently, "I haven't finished speaking yet! After all, you don't have a wood-type physique, so under normal circumstances, you can't use the 'Hand of the Forest'."

"Huh?" Xiao Nuo was confused.

Yan Beishan was like a kind elder at this moment, patiently explaining to Xiao Nuo.

"But you can use this technique in places with a lot of vegetation."

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Nuo was even more surprised.

"A place with lots of vegetation?"

"Yes, the spiritual seal on your palm will increase your affinity for vegetation. If there is a large forest around you, it will greatly increase the power of this spiritual seal, allowing you to display the 'Hand of Forest'

'This skill..."

"Of course, you still need to practice more in the early stage. When you fully control this spiritual seal in the later stage, the power of the 'Hand of Forest' will become stronger and stronger."

After listening to Yan Beishan's explanation, Xiao Nuo roughly understood the function of this spiritual seal.

To put it simply, under normal circumstances, I am still unable to use the ‘Hand of the Forest’.

But if you fall into the forest at the location of the battle with the enemy, it is equivalent to entering Xiao Nuo's home field.

To be honest, Xiao Nuo was a little disappointed.

I thought that this skill given to me by the ancient spiritual tree could be used anytime and anywhere, but I didn't expect that it required basic conditions.

But then I thought, refining the 'Wood Spirit Pill' myself is the most important thing.

This ‘Forest Hand’ is a gifted skill.

No matter what you say, it’s not a loss.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nuo felt relieved.

In such a short period of time, he has risen to two small realms in a row. Just based on this, Xiao Nuo should also be smiling.

Left the Immortal Tree Terrace.

The three of them returned to the front yard of the city lord's mansion.

In the front hall.

Li Hao, Mu Yue'er, Li Chen and others are waiting here.

Seeing Xiao Nuo coming with Yan Beishan and Yan Ying, the faces of the Piaomiao Sect members showed a little surprise.

"Lord Yan City..." Li Hao clasped his hands and went up to salute.

Mu Yue'er, Li Chen and others also stood up one after another.

Yan Beishan raised his hand slightly, "Have you got the management map of Holy Tree City and my stamped documents?"

"Yes, I received it early in the morning."

Li Hao's condition was much better than yesterday. Although his face was still pale, his voice did not sound so weak.

"Firstly, we express our gratitude to the city lord, and secondly, we bid farewell to the city lord."

Yan Beishan fulfilled his promise and handed over part of the management rights of Holy Tree City to the Piaomiao Sect.

Originally, when Li Hao came, he could directly arrange to take over, but because of the heavy casualties suffered by the Piaomiao Sect in that battle, Li Hao needed to return to the sect and discuss follow-up matters with the senior elders again.

In addition, the injuries of Ouyang Rong, Xiang Dongliu, Yun Zhou and others were too serious and they had to return to the sect for treatment immediately.

Although the treatment conditions in the City Lord's Mansion are not bad, there is definitely a gap compared to the Piaomiao Sect, one of the seven holy places of cultivation in the Eastern Wasteland.

Due to various reasons, Li Hao and others planned to return immediately.

Yan Beishan nodded slightly, "You might as well go back early. It will probably take a few days before the Tiangang Sword Sect will know about this place."

What happened, I also need to get in touch with the third elder of your sect as soon as possible to deal with the subsequent situation."

"Yes, this is also one of the main things we are worried about." Li Hao said.

At this time, Yan Beishan's eyes turned to Xiao Nuo.

If they want to leave, Xiao Nuo will naturally not stay.

"Brother Xiao, I have one more thing to entrust to you."

"City Master Yan said it doesn't matter. As long as I, Xiao Nuo, can do it, I will try my best to do it..." Xiao Nuo replied.

"Ying'er, I want her to go to the Piaomiao Sect to practice with you!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

Even Yan Ying was stunned. She quickly grabbed a corner of Yan Beishan's sleeve and shook her head.

"No, I won't go..."

Yan Beishan's eyes were full of love. He stroked Yan Ying's little head and just nodded gently to her.

Yanying still shook her head, her eyes gradually turning red.

Yan Beishan said to Xiao Nuo, Li Hao and others, "Please wait for her outside!"

Li Hao, Mu Yue'er and the others looked at each other, then nodded in agreement and left the hall.

Outside the palace.

The Piaomiao Sect group remained silent.

Considering the importance of the Holy Tree City to the Piaomiao Sect, there is absolutely no problem for Yanying to enter the sect. However, one thing is that Yanying is timid by nature. Except for Yan Beishan, no one wants to get close to her and bring her into the sect.

Behind the door, who will take care of her is a big problem...

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xiao Nuo.

Intuition told them that at least half of the reason for Yan Beishan's idea came from Xiao Nuo's side.

But in fact Xiao Nuo was also surprised, but he really had no reason to refuse.

After a while, Yan Beishan led Yan Ying out.

The little girl's eyes were red, and there were two undried tears on her face.

But judging from her appearance, she must have been convinced by Yan Beishan.

"She won't hinder your basic daily life, she can do a good job by herself..." Yan Beishan said to everyone.

"The words of the Lord of Yan City are serious..." Li Hao clasped his fists with both hands, "The eldest lady of the City Lord's Mansion is willing to come to Piaomiao Sect, which is a good thing we can only ask for, how can it hinder..."

What Li Hao said was both polite and truthful.

Yan Ying is indeed a little different from ordinary people, but she is the granddaughter of Yan Beishan after all. If she stays in the Piaomiao Sect for one day, the relationship between the Piaomiao Sect and the Holy Tree City will be strengthened...

Who says she won’t serve her ancestors, but she will definitely entertain her with delicious food and drinks.
