Chapter 1167 - 620: Rational Planning Inside the World Tree

Back in the World Tree, your mindset gets influenced.

Thinking about having plenty of time, Xu Xin and Xu Ying both feel it’s time for a break.

Coming down from the treehouse, Li Wenxi leaned against the trunk of the treehouse, waiting for them.

"Ah, you finally came down. What were you talking about just now?" Li Wenxi came closer and hugged his arm.

"Not much, just about tomorrow’s attack by the petrified creatures." Xu Xin explained, "But that’s still some time away inside the World Tree."

The petrified creatures won’t come until after dawn the next day; in internal time, that’s nearly two months away.

"Oh, Yingying said there’s no need to worry, right?" Li Wenxi looked up at the treehouse, "Hmm? Where’s Yingying? Why didn’t she come down?"

"She teleported away earlier, said she wanted to wander around herself, so she won’t be disturbing us." Xu Xin shrugged.

"Oh... hehe, did you miss me?"

"Uh... I’ve only been gone a few hours."

"Hmph, I’ve been here for a whole half month!" Li Wenxi pouted slightly, "The time difference here is really annoying!"

"Who made you so important? During the time you weren’t here, we explorers almost had to halt everything." Xu Xin laughed.

"So, during this half month you weren’t here, I crazily harvested resources! Now, our metal and ore resources are very abundant, enough for a long time. Next time you go out, take me with you!"

"Forget it; you don’t have any combat survival skills. Encountering any danger would be bad. Better stay here obediently." Xu Xin patted her head, "We’re just going out one more time."

"Hmm? Ah, you’re going to the underground world, right?" Li Wenxi realized and then pursed her lips, "Hmm, then I’ll pass on that. I’ll be of no use down there."

"Speaking of which, what exactly happened when you two were in the underground world? I still don’t know." Xu Xin asked.

"Ah... you better ask Yingying about that. I’m not really sure. And..." Li Wenxi hesitated for a moment and then patted his arm, "Aiya, you’ll know when you go down."

"Oh... then take me around here; you guys have really worked hard this half month."

"Hehe, right!"

Li Wenxi first took Xu Xin back to her own room.

She currently lives in a villa, looking very luxurious, with a large yard, even running water, a pavilion, and colorful flowers, showing a real Chinese style.

"Not staying in the treehouse anymore?" Xu Xin said somewhat surprised.

"Treehouses aren’t as comfortable as small villas." Li Wenxi led Xu Xin into the yard, "Besides, our treehouses have been requisitioned, and their main function isn’t for living anymore."

"Oh, I saw that."

This area is lined with villas, and around the villa residential area, there are three different forests.

One is an orchard for growing fruits, one is an economic forest for greening and timber, and another is the treehouse forest.

All the treehouses are now planted in one area.

And all the survivors have moved into this villa forest.

"Now the functions of treehouses are unlocked. Each treehouse is a super factory."

Li Wenxi looked towards the lush green treehouse forest outside the yard: "In the World Tree, we don’t have dangers. Using them for living would be a waste. So Ji Chaoyang suggested we all move out of treehouses and contribute them for use as production workshops."

"That decision makes a lot of sense." Xu Xin said, somewhat surprised, "Does everyone support it?"

"Of course they do!" Li Wenxi opened the villa door, turned her head with a smile, "Their treehouses are so tiny; they’re eager to live in big villas."

"Hmm... I’ll transplant my treehouse here later." Xu Xin stroked his chin, "My treehouse area is so big, with so many floors, strong functions; it will only make sense in the World Tree."

"Then I’ll go with you!"

"Hmm? You’re coming for that too?"

"Of course, you go out for a minute, and I have to wait inside for almost two hours!"

"Ah... indeed."

"Eep!!"

Suddenly, a sound came from the second floor of the villa, and a small brown and white figure dragged a big tail down the stairs, jumped twice into Xu Xin’s arms.

"Ee-ee-ee!"

The little critter rubbed against his chest.

"This little one really resembles you, day after day sitting idle by the window, doesn’t even move when you grab its tail." Li Wenxi reached out to pet Keke’s little head, "Just waiting for you to come back."

"Eep..." Keke’s little claw clung to Xu Xin’s clothes, refusing to let go.

It seemed very regretful that it hadn’t gone out with Xu Xin before.

"You little fellow, wasn’t it you who didn’t want to come out with me back then?" Xu Xin pinched its furry ears.

"Eep... ee-ee!" It rubbed against Xu Xin’s chest again, then raised its little head and waved its paw, indicating that it must go out next time.

"Alright, alright."

Also, Afu, hanging on the stair railing, flapped its wings and flew down.

"Are they all living with you?" Xu Xin also petted Afu’s head, asked Li Wenxi.

"Um... not exactly." Li Wenxi pulled Xu Xin to sit down, "Silver King is living outside; it seems to really like being with the sheep."
