Xu Chunniang was regarded as a guest of honor and invited to participate in this celebration.
Originally, with her cultivation level, it was impossible for her to be assigned to the main hall.
But the Treeman King was grateful for her saving grace, and specially arranged Xu Chunniang's position below him.
That night, the entire tree kingdom was in a state of excitement, with countless tree people running around telling each other, toasting and reveling.
However, halfway through the celebration, a tree man on duty suddenly came to report.
"Your Majesty, several great masters from the Yaksha Clan visited our Shuren Kingdom. They said that they came here to celebrate you at the request of the venerable members of the clan."
The Treeman King's brows furrowed slightly, then relaxed, and his tone was cold.
"We, the Shuren tribe, have always been kind to others, and we have always been in harmony with the Yaksha tribe. Since the Yaksha tribe is here, let them come in."
"yes."
After receiving the order, the tree man who informed him turned around and left the hall.
However, Xu Chunniang's heart tightened. The Shuren Clan had a new Mahayana Venerable. It was a big event and he was as fierce as the Yaksha Clan. They sent people to express their congratulations.
Human monks are accustomed to paying attention to etiquette, so they will not miss such a grand event.
I'm afraid it won't be long before human monks arrive here.
If they knew that she was currently hiding in the tree-human tribe, there would inevitably be another turmoil.
Thinking of this, Xu Chunniang did not hesitate and sent a message to the Treeman King.
"Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered something, and I'm afraid I have to leave the Treeman Kingdom early."
The Treeman King was a little confused, "Why are you in such a hurry? After the celebration is over, I will personally see you off."
Xu Chunniang hesitated slightly and told the truth.
"Didn't I say before that I offended the monks from the seven major human families? If any human monks come here soon, I'm afraid they will recognize me."
"So that's what you were worried about."
The Treeman King suddenly understood. After thinking for a moment, he took out a roll of black bark and handed it to her.
"Take it."
"What is this?"
Xu Chunniang took the bark from her hand, a little stunned.
"This is an acquired treasure that I found in the clan's treasure house in my early years. As long as I refine it and put it on, I can turn it into a tree man.
I have helped you refine most of the magic patterns in the bark, leaving only the last bit that has not been refined. Please try to see if you can refine it. "
The acquired treasure is of a higher grade than the acquired spiritual treasure and is worth a lot of money.
Just when Xu Chunniang hesitated, another tree man on duty came to report.
"Your Majesty, there are powerful people coming to visit. They claim that they have come to celebrate you with the wishes of the seven great families."
Xu Chunniang's heart tightened, what was supposed to come had come!
The Treeman King glanced at her, smiled and said through the message, "Why don't you quickly refine the bark?"
Xu Chunniang no longer hesitated, and her spiritual consciousness rushed into the bark of the tree, refining the restrictions in it in one fell swoop.
With a thought in her mind, she put the bark on her body, and a magical scene appeared.
The tree bark actually grew a lot, wrapping her entire body in it, wrapping Xu Chunniang into a tree man.
The bark of the tree stuck tightly to her skin. When she moved, the bark surrounding her also moved. This feeling was very strange.
Upon seeing this, the Treeman King smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand and ordered the treeman holding his hand to retreat, and then sent a message to Xu Chunniang.
"Covered with this layer of tree bark, those human monks will not be able to recognize your true identity. I have ordered all the tree people not to reveal your whereabouts to anyone.
Don't worry, as long as you are still in the realm of the tree people, I will not let them hurt you even a hair. "
Xu Chunniang felt relieved. Judging from the attitude of the Treeman King towards her, even if her identity was discovered by cultivators, they might not dare to cause trouble in the Treeman Kingdom.
After the tree man on duty left, several Yaksha monks walked in.
They are taller than the average human monks, have slender limbs, and unique masks on their faces, which make them look very strange.
These Yaksha monks all have the cultivation level of the Integration Stage.
After they entered the main hall, they first presented gifts to the Treeman King, and then presented many treasures.
"We are here on the orders of the ten great gods of the Yaksha clan to congratulate Venerable Bairan on his successful escape from the tribulation and his smooth advancement into the Mahayana stage!"
Treeman Wang Bairan glanced at several Yakshas and said softly.
"Without the gift, I, the Shu Human Clan, have always been kind to others, and have been on good terms with the Yaksha Clan for more than 100,000 years. I will accept these gifts. Please also express my gratitude to the ten heavenly masters on my behalf."
Two treants in the combined stage stepped forward, took the treasure from Yaksha's hand, and led them to sit down in front of an empty table.
Not long after several Yaksha monks sat down, three human monks walked into the hall under the guidance of two tree men.
The three of them bowed to Bai Ran and offered congratulatory gifts.
"We are here on the orders of the seven major families of the human race to congratulate Venerable Bai Ran for successfully overcoming the tribulation and entering the Mahayana stage in one fell swoop!"
"Excuse me. I have always had good relations with the human race. The seven aristocratic families are interested. I also ask you to convey my gratitude to the seven aristocratic families for me after you go back."
Two treants in the fusion stage stepped forward and took the treasure from the human monk's hands. When they were about to lead them to sit down, a human monk said.
"This time we came to the Shuren Tribe. In addition to congratulating the king, we also have a small matter that may cause trouble to the venerable king."
Bai Ran glanced at the old man who was speaking, "If you have anything to do, it's okay to say it."
The old man cupped his fists and saluted, and said what he had already thought about.
"It's like this. Eighteen years ago, a human female cultivator named Xu Chunniang stole my Meng family's innate treasure, the Xuanhuang Pagoda."
Bai Ran frowned slightly, "Since the person who stole it is your human monk, why did you need to tell me?"
"Your Majesty, you don't know. This female cultivator is very cunning. She disappeared not long after she stole the Xuanhuang Pagoda. I suspect that she has already left the human realm.
The place where she last appeared was not far from West Pole City, and it was very possible that she had sneaked into the Treeman Kingdom. "
"I see. You told me this specifically. Do you want me to help you find the trace of the female nun?"
The old man shook his head quickly, "This is a matter for my human race, so I don't dare to bother the venerable one. However, although the female cultivator's cultivation level is not high, her methods are very extraordinary.
Since she can deliberately steal my Meng family's treasure, she may not attack the tree people. I just remind the king to prevent your people from being deceived by her. "
"I already know everything about this, please sit down first."
The old man didn't say much. After bowing again, he followed the two treants in the integration stage and prepared to take a seat.
The other two human monks followed the old man, as if following the old man's lead.
The three of them were about to take their seats when they saw several Yashas sitting across from them. Their faces turned pale and they could neither sit nor stand.
There is no friendship between the human race and the Yaksha race.
The Yaksha tribe is eyeing the territory of the human race and attempts to annex the human race, not just in a day or two.
The two tribes are sworn enemies, how can they drink at the same table with the Yaksha tribe?
