Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 699: Chapter 698: Female Tree Person

Seeing that the time was right, Ye Haochuan then said to the Eldest Elder, ”Actually, I’ve come this time because there’s something I’d like to ask for the Eldest Elder’s help with!”

Eager for an opportunity to repay Ye Haochuan’s kindness, the Eldest Elder quickly replied with a smile, ”If there’s anything you need from our Tree People Clan, just command it.”

That’s exactly what I was waiting for, heh heh!

Ye Haochuan felt secretly pleased and smiled, ”Actually, it’s not a big deal, I just want to ask the Eldest Elder to lead the Fire Tree Human Clan to shift their location a bit...”

”You want us to move?”

Before Ye Haochuan could finish, Yige, who was at his side, bluntly interrupted him.

”It’s something like that!” Ye Haochuan answered with a curl of his lips.

”No way, the Fire Tree Human Clan has lived in this region for over a thousand years; this is our home. How can we just move on a whim?” Yige firmly objected.

The Eldest Elder also hurriedly explained, ”You don’t understand, benefactor. My Fire Tree Human Clan has lived here from generation to generation; this place is my home. Asking us to leave is somewhat unreasonable...”

Ye Haochuan had thought this would be a simple request, and that the Fire Tree Human Clan wouldn’t object. He didn’t expect to be flatly refused.

God damn it, what happened to ”just command it”? I made promises before I came here. If I can’t dupe you all into the mines, where shall I put this face of mine?

With a meaningful smile, Ye Haochuan said directly, ”I wonder how your casualties were from this Flame Eagle Beast attack. If they invade again next time, could you still hold them off?”

”This...” The Eldest Elder’s expression darkened as he said, ”If the Flame Eagle Beasts come again, we Fire Tree Humans will certainly fight to the death...”

”Fight to the death? To the point of extinction?” Ye Haochuan suddenly interjected. ”When the Flame Eagle Beasts wipe you all out, this place will become their nest. Do you think it’s worth it?”

”Do you think the Flame Eagle Beasts are as stupid as you? If we move to another place, they won’t be able to find us?” Yige retorted with irritation.

God damn it, being despised by a tree? I can’t stand it!

Ye Haochuan hummed softly and said, ”You dumb tree, you can’t defeat the Flame Eagle Beasts because you’re immobile. When the time comes and we humans help you fend off the enemy, what’s a Flame Eagle Beast to us?”

”Hmph, humans are the most cunning. I don’t trust them!” Yige said, his face filled with disbelief.

Them? God damn it, why do you talk as if I’m not a human?

Ye Haochuan chuckled to himself and said, ”The place I’m asking you to move to is my territory, filled with my people. I promise to help you resist the Flame Eagle Beasts, and I will deliver on that promise.”

”No good deed goes unrewarded, you are either a schemer or a thief! You must have ulterior motives to make us move with all this effort,” Yige said angrily.

Crap, this tree is really sly, even using idioms!

Ye Haochuan smiled faintly and replied, ”We help you block the Flame Eagle Beast Clan, you help us guard the mines, each taking what we need. A win-win cooperation, only a fool would refuse such a deal.”

”You’re the fool, your whole family is full of fools!” Yige shouted angrily at the words.

God damn it, you dare to insult me? Believe it or not, I’ll peel off your bark and ruin your reputation in the Tree People World?

Ye Haochuan inwardly sneered but put on a face of deep sorrow and said, ”Ah, I’ve saved your Eldest Elder’s life twice for nothing if you dare to slander me like this. Forget it, forget everything I’ve said. I’ll be on my way now and come back another time to see you all.”

”No need to see us off!” Yige said coldly.

God damn it, what happened to all that groveling when you needed me to save the Eldest Elder? You turn your back the moment your pants are up? Even as a tree, you’ve got a dual personality. Damn, you’re really something!

Ye Haochuan was filled with contempt but then said with an air of regret, ”Er... I don’t even know if you’ll still be here next time I come. Seems like I’ll have to prepare a few teardrops in advance; otherwise, it would be awkward if I can’t squeeze them out then.”

”You..., you dare to curse us, I’ll fight you!” Yige was furious, and immediately began to thrash about, attacking Ye Haochuan.

”Stop!” the Eldest Elder suddenly shouted, ”Benefactor saved our Fire Tree Human Clan. How can you be so rude?”

”Eldest Elder, this human has gone too far! He...” Yige tried to explain.

”Silence! Apologize to benefactor at once!” the Eldest Elder ordered sternly.

Yige was still reluctant but didn’t dare to go against the Eldest Elder’s wishes and had to say in a low voice, ”I’m sorry!”

After speaking, the face on its trunk suddenly disappeared, and it turned into an ordinary big tree, seeming to be angry.

”My granddaughter has been spoiled by me, and I ask the benefactor to not take it to heart!” The Eldest Elder said politely.

Granddaughter? Do these Tree People have genders? How do they do the deed then? Rub against each other, two trees intertwined?

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but feel intrigued, his gaze wandering over the Tree People around him. However, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t spot any difference.

”No worries, I never take issue with ladies. But about that migration thing, is there really no room for discussion?” Ye Haochuan still felt somewhat unwilling.

As soon as migration was mentioned, the Eldest Elder’s expression turned uglier than if his father had died; he sighed and said, ”The Benefactor doesn’t understand, even if we wanted to migrate, it’s not possible. The Tree People Clan has extremely high requirements for water and land. If we migrate rashly, encountering deserts and rocky mountains could mean death for us.”

Damn, thought it was some big issue, it’s just this. Please, your uncle here has the Gate of the World, is that even a problem?

With his mind made up, Ye Haochuan asked, ”So, are you saying that if I guarantee no casualties during your migration, you would be willing to migrate?”

”You guarantee? With what will you guarantee? Can a single Human Clan member like you assure the safety of thousands of us Tree People?” Yige suddenly showed her face again and interjected.

Damn, thought you went off to dream about your beloved Tree God, why’d you pop up again?

Ye Haochuan, visibly annoyed, said, ”How about we make a bet? If I can’t do it, deal with me however you want.”

”Scoundrel! Do you think I’d gamble the lives of thousands of my Tree People Clan on such a meaningless bet?” Yige said furiously.

Shoot, this female Tree Person is getting cockier and cockier, huh! Uncle can bear it, but I sure as hell can’t!

Ye Haochuan couldn’t be bothered to argue with her anymore and placed his hand on Yige’s trunk, initiating the Gate of the World.

In an instant, Ye Haochuan and Yige disappeared from where they were and appeared several thousand miles away, atop a mine.

”Take your stinking hand off me. Even if we’re not the same clan, there is still a difference between men and women. If you dare to be disrespectful to me again, I’ll not be polite!” Yige said with a cold snort.

For crying out loud, you’re just a tree, okay? Can you not talk like I’m interested in you or something?

Ye Haochuan, his face full of black lines, said displeasedly, ”Maybe you should take a look around first!”

”What?” It was only then that Yige looked around.

But one look made her expression change drastically. There were no Fire Tree Humans in sight, just ordinary trees. Yige panicked and shouted angrily, ”Scoundrel, where did you take the Eldest Elder and the rest?”

”Idiot, you’ve been brought to the place we are supposed to migrate to, the Eldest Elder and the rest are still back where they were.” Ye Haochuan said, amused.

”What?” Yige, disbelieving, shouted angrily, ”Who allowed you to bring me here? Send me back immediately...”

Ye Haochuan couldn’t be bothered to waste his breath on a female tree and directly used the Gate of the World to return to the Fire Tree Human Clan’s territory.

”Benefactor, where did Yige go?” As soon as only Ye Haochuan appeared, the Eldest Elder immediately became worried.

”Don’t worry, I’ve already sent her to my mine. If you’re willing, I can send you there right now,” Ye Haochuan said with a smile.

”What? You’re not joking with me, are you?” The Eldest Elder said incredulously.

”Whether it’s a joke or not, don’t you see for yourself?” Ye Haochuan said with interest.

Just at that moment, Ye Haochuan had already sent the Eldest Elder to the mine.

When the Eldest Elder looked around, he was so shocked that leaves fell to the ground all around him.

”Amazing, truly amazing! I am thoroughly impressed by the Benefactor’s methods!”

”So, about that migration...” Ye Haochuan said, looking at the Eldest Elder with interest.

”Migrate, I will have them all migrate here right away! With such a powerful protector as the Benefactor, the Fire Tree Human Clan will be safe! Haha!” The Eldest Elder said excitedly.

Damn, if I knew I should have just brought you all over to see first, wasted so much of my breath!
