The ancient tree had already lived for millions of years now and it was still alive, albeit its vitality was already low. Anyone who would ever see the true worth of this tree would do everything to uproot it and transfer it in their land.

Jin Rou was relaxing by its shade when a group of people suddenly came. They had white robes and a sun and moon as a logo imprinted in it. He took a look at them and understood that they might be people from High and Low Divination Sect.

"You there, this tree is off-limits to everyone except disciples from our sect." A youth with handsome features suddenly called out to Jin Rou with arrogance in his tone.

But Jin Rou closed his eyes, as if he didn't hear what the other party was saying.

"You..." Being ignored like this, nerves bulged on his forehead and almost exploded. Fortunately, the beauty beside him stopped him, "Brother Zou, let me do it."

Seeing that the beauty stepped up, Brother Zou had no choice but to comply. After all, he didn't want to be viewed anything bad by this girl.

The beauty walked two to four steps nearer to Jin Rou and observed him for a moment. Afterwards, she took a deep breath and said with a warm smile on her face, "Hello, Dao Brother. I am called Mingyu, can I know Dao Brother's name here?"

There was no response after several minutes. Mingyu felt bitter in her mouth. She was always the target of awe and admiration of the masses, especially the men. Never in her life she thought that she'd be ignored like this.

She was a great beauty who could topple empires, after all. With her black long hair, big round melons, and voluptuous behind, all men would go crazy for her. Furthermore, she was deemed to be one of the great beauties only under the Three Legendary Fairies.

"If you want this tree, unfortunately it will be a no. First come, first serve." Jin Rou responded after a long silence, "So leave while I'm still nice."

"Dao Brother, you might be knowledgeable about this, but the tree you are in is part of our sect. So basically speaking, we have the right to make anyone move out if we want to." Mingyu's voice was getting colder. This man wasn't attracted to him or whatsoever and it's making her angry.

"This is the Divine Land, where everyone is free to enter. Be it part of your sect or not. And furthermore, how can you say that this is your sect's property when you can't even take properly control it?" Jin Rou retorted with sharp arguments, "A bunch of rubbish. Just because your sect managed to solve a bit of its mysteries, you already dared to claim it's yours? Laughable."

The group was speechless to hear this. They didn't expect that this young man would be so knowledgeable in this area! Indeed, Jin Rou was right. Their ancestor only managed to solve a few mysteries of the Divine Land, and it wasn't yet enough to devour the entire land for themselves. So strictly speaking, the Divine Land wasn't still theirs and wouldn't be unless they solve all its mysteries.

"You're speaking nonsense. This is ours." Mingyu, of course, couldn't admit it upfront and still denied it, "If you don't want us to force you out there, you better heed my advice."

"A bunch of new emperor-level brats want to threaten me?" Jin Rou looked at them like they were jumping clowns, "Fine, let's see what you can do, then."

"Then don't blame us for being rude!" The angered man a while ago finally had the chance to release his pent up anger towards Jin Rou. He then released a ball of big fire and threw it towards the other party.

Jin Rou smiled and stayed relaxed. The ancient tree wiggled its branches and created a barrier to protect Jin Rou.

"Boom!" The impact created a minor explosion, but it didn't seem to damage the barrier made of branches.

After which, the ancient tree retaliated by sending sharp leaves from its branches. Take note, each leaf had the power to slice anyone into pieces, be it gods and demons.

"Damn it!" Brother Zou erected a protection zone for the group and took the damage being given by the ancient tree, "Kiza, how about you do something?"

Kiza was the third person and the last of the group. He was only watching by the sidelines even after the fight started. He had a normal and healthy body and considered to be also one of the best disciples of the sect.

Kiza naturally didn't want to take part in this. After all, it seemed useless and tiring. Nevertheless, he needed to give assistance to Brother Zou, "I'll give you energy to maintain the protection zone."

The barrage of attacks continued and lasted for more than ten minutes. The protection zone wasn't going to last for long and they needed to back off. The ancient tree looked like it would kill them without hesitation.

"Little Tree, you can stop bullying them now." Jin Rou patted the tree's trunk and softly said in which the ancient tree also abided.

Being freed from the terrifying attacks, Brother Zou wanted to curse Jin Rou but remained prudent in the end, "What did you do to that tree?"

"Nothing, I'm just its friend so naturally, it will protect me." Jin Rou smiled and said, "You three want to still have a go? I don't mind slicing you into pieces this time around."

Brother Zou gritted his teeth and still wanted to try but stopped by Mingyu, "Brother Zou, let's back off for now. We are no match for that tree. You can see it, right? It has sentience and is protecting that young man. We will be just wasting our lives if we pushed more than necessary."

Jin Rou could hear Mingyu's words and smirked inside. At least, this little girl had the brains unlike that Brother Zou who was all brawls and no brain.
