I Have a Manor in the Post-apocalyptic Era

Chapter 266 - Ghost Trees

Although Lei Xing had resumed daily activities, he had become reclusive as well.

During the time when Yang Tian was away, Lei Xing had obtained two more Rank 3 Energy Equipment Blueprints. Xu Dafu told Yang Tian that Lei Xing got it from a Bronze Chest.

Lei Xing’s ability had also reached Mid Rank 3 and he knew how to make Rank 3 Energy Equipments as well, becoming a qualified Rank 3 Gunmaster. Xu Dafu was currently Mid Rank 3 while Wang Yu was Early Rank 3.

Due to the Dark Slime fighting force, it was hard to find an organization that could rival Sky Halberd Domain in the Celestial Empire currently.

No wonder Guan Ren Zuo came to them to ask for help.

“Oh right. Domain Lord, a powerful woman appeared outside the Sky Halberd Domain a few days ago.” Wang Yu reported to Yang Tian.

“Oh? Tell me more.”

A powerful female metahuman? There is only a handful in the Celestial Empire.

“She says that we should be able to accept large amounts of ordinary people and also wanted us to help the other areas in fighting the Insect Wave. However, after we rejected her, she told us to wait a few days, she would come up with a method to make us offer help.”

Yang Tian slightly frowned when he heard this, that woman’s style and mannerisms were very similar to someone he knew in his previous life.

A busybody and filled with righteousness? Yang Tian felt disgusted when he recalled her appearance from his memories.

“Is there anything unique about her?”

“I did not take note, but I recall that she has a long sword that is a mixture of blue and white color.”

“Is one of her eyes red while the other blue?”

“… now that you brought it up, it seems like they were.”

It was her! Yang Tian’s expression instantly changed, who else in the Post-Apocalyptic Era can it be but her? Who else would be such a busybody?

When Yang Tian became the number one wanted man of the Celestial Empire in his previous life, he had fought against many metahumans. However, the one that Yang Tian fought against the most was not his greatest enemy, but the Thunder Sword Saint, Ji Tian Lou.

She was not one of the top ten experts of the Celestial Empire, but her fighting power cannot be underestimated, and not a single one of the top ten experts dared to underestimate her as well. In his previous life, her husband was No. 7 of the top ten experts, the Lord of Celestial Bodies, Luo Zhan.

But now, the two of them should not have met yet. Luo Zhan should currently be at Sun Moon Valley; it was also the location of the Sun Moon Primordial City, one of the Twenty-Three Main Cities and Luo Zhan was the master. Ji Tian Lou should be based in C City, her family was from the military, it was said that her grandfather held a high position in the military and controlled a portion of the military forces within C City.

For Ji Tian Luo to appear in Sky Halberd Domain meant that C City has defeated their Insect Wave, because only like this would she have the free time to be a busybody.

C City also possessed one of the Twenty-Three Main Cities, the Blazing Rock City; if the Blazing Rock City and the military in C City worked together, it was indeed not hard to defeat the Insect Wave.

“Is this going to be a serious matter?” Wang Yu asked curiously.

“Nothing serious. Let’s wait for them to come.”

Yang Tian might have appeared indifferent on the surface, but his heart was not as calm: ‘You want to mess in my affairs? You should just return home and drink milk!’

After Yang Tian returned to the manor, Wang Yu and the rest went to handle their tasks. As for T-Rex and the rest, Yang Tian left them to Wang Yu to decide, Lina was the only one who was accompanying Yang Tian.

Yang Tian chose one of the palace buildings as Lina’s accommodation, while the two puppets became her guards.

Yang Tian walked out of Sky Halberd Palace and looked at the Exploding Fruit Tree Area and the several dozen of mutated fruit trees near it. The mutated trees have all been affected by the Undead Energy and transformed into Ghost Trees.

The Ghost Tree is a Rank 2 Plant that does not have much fighting power, but it can induce confusion. It was a pity that there were only a few dozen of them, if Yang Tian has over a hundred Ghost Trees, he would be able to create a forest that causes confusion, if the Confusion Forest is placed around the outer region of Sky Halberd Manor, it would greatly increase the manor’s defensive abilities.

The Exploding Fruit Tree sent Yang Tian a message.

“Master, these Ghost Trees can reproduce. They will start reproducing if you plant them on normal earth.”

“I know.”

As Sky Halberd King Manor was located on top of a gigantic rock, the oppressive aura that was emitted by the rock was restricting the abilities of the Ghost Trees.

Since there were Ghost Trees now, Yang Tian decided to make use of them properly and not waste them.

The Ghost Trees seemed to be aware that Yang Tian was their master as they slightly bowed when Yang Tian approached them.

“Let’s choose you.”

Yang Tian selected one Ghost Tree and used his Mental Power to pull the entire tree out along with its roots. Yang Tian planned to relocate the tree to the land underneath the floating rock of the King’s Manor.

Yang Tian replanted three Ghost Trees in different locations as an experiment. The Ghost Trees did not produce any changes immediately after replanting, but after the third day, the three Ghosts Trees were developing much better than the Ghost Trees within King’s Manor.

The Ghost Trees within King’s Manor was around four meters tall, with a girth requiring two adults to hug it. While the replanted Ghost Trees has reached five meters in height and with an adult expansion in girth. The difference between the two sides was extremely distinct.

Also, small buds were growing around the replanted Ghost Trees; the buds were emitting faint Undead Energy, telling Yang Tian that the Ghost Tree had started reproducing.

Seeing these effects, Yang Tian moved five more Ghost Trees from King’s Manor.

After seven more days have passed, the first three Ghost Trees now have several tree saplings growing around them. This rate of reproduction was astonishing high.

“If this rate continues, the Confusion Forest will be developed within a few months.”

Just as Yang Tian was about to continue with the replanting, a few dozen energy signatures appeared in the air, each energy signature was not weak.

Yang Tian could detect one familiar energy amongst them, one that was carved deep within his soul.

“You finally came.”

Yang Tian’s mouth curled up slightly.

These energy signatures were all Bird-Type Metahumans. Only a handful of them were not, but these people had undoubtedly higher status than the Bird-Type Metahumans because they were standing on the Bird-Type Metahumans’ bodies.

This group likely knew that they will have to pass through the Nine Cities of Sky Halberd Domain to enter; that was why they used flight to reach King’s Manor directly. However, they did not dare to appear directly above the King’s Manor.

Directly above the King’s Manor was a unique magnetic field, any flying creature which enters the field will feel restriction.
