Shenmu City is built in the woods. All the houses are made of wood and leaves. They are located on the branches, and bridges are built with vines between each tree, forming a "city in the sky".

The stream flows under the trees, and from time to time some small animals run past, and the crisp chirping of birds echoes in the forest.

Looking around, it feels like being in a fairy tale, beautiful and dreamy.

Xue Hui said as he walked: "We will go to the temple to meet the high priest first, and then we will take you to rest."

The location of the Shenmu Temple is quite special. It is built inside the largest tree in the city.

This tree is so huge that it would take more than twenty adults to maintain its trunk.

Agui said: "You can go in by yourselves, I won't go in."

Xue Hui glanced at him: "Are you afraid that the high priest will lecture you again?"

When Agui's thoughts were exposed, he immediately became angry and retorted angrily: "He is very kind to every orc, but he is very strict with me. I don't like to be with him!"

After saying that, he ran away without looking back.

Xue Huichong slowly showed a helpless smile: "Agui is the child of the high priest, and the high priest has given him deep hopes. Sometimes he is too harsh, which makes Agui's character a bit awkward. When you see the high priest later, if he asks about Agui, just tell him that he left beforehand, and don't tell him what Agui just said."

He nodded slowly and said, "I understand."

"Let's go in."

They walked up the stairs and entered the temple.

The tree trunks are all hollow inside, and the first floor is very empty, with only a few godly attendants sweeping it.

Xue Hui led slowly and others up the spiral staircase. The wooden stairs creaked as they stepped on them.

They reached the second floor and finally met the high priest of the Shenmu Temple, Bi Huan.

As the name suggests, Bihuanren has a pair of green eyes, long snow-white hair, and many wrinkles have appeared at the corners of his eyes, but he still looks in good spirits.

He was sitting on an ancient wicker chair, and on the wall behind him were all kinds of vines, many of which had small flowers in bloom, which were very beautiful.

He holds a long crutch in his hand. The crutch is made of several dry vines intertwined. If you look closely, you will find that there are many fine patterns on the vines.

Xue Hui bowed to him and said, "Lord Bisi, I'm back."

Bi Huan nodded slightly: "I heard from the plants in the forest that you brought four guests, so you asked Agui to pick you up. You should have seen him, right?"

Xue Hui nodded: "He brought us here."

"Then why didn't I see him? Where did he go for fun?"

Xue Hui said: "He said he had something to do, so he took the first step."

Bi Huan twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered: "What serious thing can he do, other than just following his friends around to dig out bird eggs?"

Seeing that he was showing signs of being angry, Xue Hui quickly changed the subject: "I brought Su Xuan. She is the child of the same race that I told you before, who was left outside."

The arrival of his compatriots made Bi Huan temporarily put aside his son's matters. He followed Xue Hui's line of sight, saw Lin Xuanyuan, and asked with a smile: "Are you Lin Xuanyuan?"

He nodded slowly: "Hello, High Priest."

Bi Huan waved to her: "Come here and let me take a closer look."

He hesitated slowly before walking over.

After getting closer, Bi Huan immediately smelled the scent of the sacred tree on her body and confirmed that she was indeed a descendant of the sacred tree clan, and couldn't help but smile.

He raised his hand and touched her head: "Good boy, I know you were wronged in the Temple of Beasts. You don't have to worry anymore when you get here."

Nodding slowly: "Thank you."

"You are a member of my race, which means we are a family. You don't need to be so reserved."

He responded slowly: "Yes."

Bi Huan looked at her nervous look and knew that she had just arrived here and was still a little bit unable to adapt to it for a while, so he thoughtfully comforted her with a few words: "No matter what you have experienced before, now that you are back in Shenmu City, this is No matter what happens to your home in the future, Shenmu City will be your most solid backing."

This promise was of great significance. Xuanyuan was flattered, and at the same time moved, she became more and more nervous.

If Bi Huan knew the truth that she was not from the Shenmu clan, he would definitely be very angry and disappointed, right?

Bi Huan noticed the small white flowers pinned to the collar of her dress and paused slightly: "Is this a flower from the sacred tree?"

He nodded slowly: "It was given to me by the sacred tree."

"It seems that the Divine Tree likes you very much," Bi Huan said happily, "As long as you wear this flower, you can go anywhere in the Divine Tree City at will."

Xuanyuan didn't expect that it was just a small white flower, but it had such a meaning, and her affection for the sacred tree increased a lot again.

Bi Huan glanced at Bai Di Xue Ling and Xuan Wei again.

Compared to being cordial and kind to Su Yan, his attitude towards Bai Di and the others was much more polite: "The three of us are guests who have come from afar. It must be hard work. You go and have a night's rest first. I will hold a welcome banquet for you tomorrow. When the time comes, I hope you can come and show your respect."

Bai Di Xue Ling Xuan Wei each said "You are too polite."

After walking out of the temple, Xue Hui took Huan Huan and Bai Di to the foot of a big tree. They climbed up the stairs built with vines.

There is a two-story tree house in the tree, which is quite exquisitely built.

Xue Hui said: "This house is where a friend of mine used to live. Now he has moved in with me. This house has been idle until now, and no one has lived in it. I will help you clean it up, and you can just make do here tonight." Stay one night, and I will find some more spacious rooms for you tomorrow."

He slowly said hurriedly: "Don't bother, I think it's pretty good here."

Anyway, they are only going to live here for a while and will leave after avoiding the limelight. There is no need to pay too much attention to it.

Xue Hui said she wanted to clean, but Xu Huan couldn't really let her do it. In the end, Xu Hui and Bai Di Xue Ling Xuanwei started cleaning the house together.

Xuehui asked people to send them many fruits and vegetables.

"The orcs living in Shenmu City are basically vegetarians. In principle, eating meat is not allowed in Shenmu City, but it doesn't matter if you eat meat without being seen."

Xue Hui paused for a moment before saying this, and then warned: "No animals in the forest can be hunted, otherwise the sacred tree will be angry."

Bai Di and Xuan Wei could only say yes.

Xu Ling and Xu Ling are both omnivores and can eat anything, even vegetarians, but Bai Di and Xuan Wei cannot. They must rely on eating meat to maintain the energy their bodies need.

Fortunately, there was still a lot of meat stored in the space, enough for them to eat for a while.

Even if the meat in the space is eaten up, they can still use the space to send a message to Shuangyun and Sang Ye, asking them to help hunt some prey and put it into the space.
