Chapter 439: Chapter 265: Make a Quick Buck and Leave_1

Tree King City.

Outside the Relic Ancient Tree, the three legends and Gu Yu still stood motionless, gazing at the glowing giant tree with trembling lips, as if battered by wind and rain.

Moreover, the sky around them continued to gather Beast Trainers without cease, and even other nearby legends were alarmed and hurried over to investigate.

"Who is challenging the relic!"

This question had surfaced countless times by now, and at this moment, everyone was watching the changes of the Relic Ancient Tree with astonishment and suspicion.

Had someone taken the Tree King Legacy?

Many people were green with envy. Such a huge treasure—if no one could inherit it, that was one thing, but seeing someone actually taking it away immediately caused many to collapse emotionally.

Who on earth was it!

Amidst the calls of countless people, after a long time, Lu Ran’s figure slowly appeared on the branches of the outer ancient tree, his face etched with worry.

Ah, what did Sister Tree King mean by that.

We will definitely meet again in the future?

Didn’t she die?

Lu Ran felt that she must have suffered from some incurable disease, which led to her untimely demise.

This was a common occurrence on the Star-Moon Continent. Many Beast Trainers with great talent and potential had congenital diseases, such as some born with unique physiques that came with the innate talent of Beast Training, similar to Lu Ran’s Superpower.

But advantages often come with risks.

Compared to those tormented by nightmares like Lu Ran, his situation was relatively mild.

On Blue Star, some Superpower Experts who awakened their abilities suffered from explosive headaches every day, which were far more debilitating.

All these could be considered "strange illnesses."

And on the Star-Moon Continent, "strange illnesses" were even more numerous and were collectively referred to as "Talent diseases."

The implication was that the frail human body could not withstand such powerful talents.

The Tree King could contract a Time Overlord and was selected by legendary plant beings. She certainly possessed extraordinary talent, perhaps related to the Time Attribute. And with such powerful talent, it was possible that she suffered from a severe "Talent disease."

But since she was chosen by legendary beings, even if she were ill, it should not be incurable.

She was so certain they would meet again in the future; did that mean she had found a solution?

Since she had found a solution but still said she was dead, Lu Ran suddenly thought of a possibility.

Reincarnation!

Could it be that the Tree King, through some special method, had been reincarnated?

"Forget it, who cares? Even if she really has reincarnated, it’s unlikely we’ll meet again. In a few days, I’ll be gone," Lu Ran muttered to himself. He speculated that the Tree King probably held a grudge, seeing her low-level projection beaten by someone wielding the Deer Horn of God like a cheat device. She probably wanted to test him in earnest in the future.

But sorry, he would not give her that chance.

"Eh..."

Ever since coming out, Lu Ran had been lost in thought about the last words of the Tree King.

Only when he snapped back to reality did he notice that the sky full of Beast Trainers was watching him.

Among them was the very legend who had started this, his eyes bloodshot and hair flying wildly. He spoke deliberately, word by word, "You... passed the legacy trial?"

"Without fail!" Lu Ran responded naturally.

The green legend: ?

No one expected you to clear it, okay?

He was in turmoil now, just wanting to know what he lacked compared to this youth.

"Hahahahahahaha." At this very moment, Ye Chuanqi suddenly burst into laughter, exuding various formidable auras of the Plant Race intertwined, forming the authority of a legend.

City Lord Ye didn’t quite know how to express her feelings as she watched Lu Ran, so calm and composed. She just felt that her apprentice was devilishly talented.

He really... made it through.

"Good apprentice, well done!!!" City Lord Ye erupted with her imposing presence, causing the surrounding crowd to change their expressions. Everyone had not expected another legend to be hidden here. Hearing City Lord Ye’s address to Lu Ran, many also gained insight into Lu Ran’s background.

Apprentice of a legend.

This status was enough to deter a horde of people coveting the relics’ treasures.

However, even if Lu Ran had no background or identity, as long as he obtained the Tree King Legacy, no one would dare to attack him easily.

It was widely known that although the Tree King had passed away, not all of her powerful battle pets had left this world.

Those battle pets were also Lu Ran’s natural protectors, far more formidable than the fearsome reputation of a legendary master.

"Sorry, Senior Sister Gu, this relic probably can’t be challenged anymore," Lu Ran turned to Gu Yu and said.

Gu Yu: ???

"Haha, let’s go, it’s time to go home!" With that, Lu Ran and his company left just as quickly as they had arrived. After a hearty laugh, City Lord Ye had no intention of lingering in Tree King City.

Meanwhile, Tian Chuanqi was also internally shaken, but he didn’t say much either and simply erupted with the aura of a legend, in a way showing support for Lu Ran.

However, as strong as they were, it wasn’t long before another even more powerful presence approached.

An old man seated on a blue lotus drifted close without anyone noticing when he’d approached. Seeing this man, everyone’s expressions turned to shock. Although the old man before them wasn’t as dominant as the Tree King, he was still one of the rare eighth-level Plantmasters of the Divine Tree Continent.

"Grandpa Zeng." Seeing the man, the green legend showed no surprise. It was inevitable that the Tree King Legacy being taken would alarm this Grandpa Zeng.

"Young man."

Unlike the others, the old man was much calmer. He unexpectedly looked Lu Ran over and said, "Congratulations on obtaining the Tree King Legacy. May I ask what happened after you passed through the relic?"
