Chapter 376 The Truth about the Great Compassionate Tree King

I never expected that the truth about the Great Compassionate Tree King would turn out to be this. The Great Compassionate Tree King actually existed.

At night, the Xumi branch of the Hall of Rebirth was brightly lit. After listening to the story of the Great Compassionate Tree King told by Ying, Ruojin, Hutao, Zhongli and Mona, even with thousands of years of experience, Zhongli couldn't help but feel the same emotion as the other three.

"Jin boy, I told you that the Great Compassion Tree King definitely exists, but you insisted on arguing with me. Now you believe it, don't you?"

After listening to Jiang Ying's explanation of why other people had forgotten the Great Compassion Tree King, while Ruota Dragon King admired the Great Compassion Tree King for making the world completely peaceful for the Sumeru people, he also did not forget to say something to Ruojin.

Ruo Jin felt a little embarrassed after being rebuked by the Dragon King Ruota. After all, he didn't believe what the Dragon King Ruota said this afternoon when he said he would go to Baizhu to get some medicine. Now, he was slapped in the face by the truth that Ying told him.

After a moment of embarrassment, Ruo Jin suddenly thought of a question. According to Ying, the Great Mercy Tree King should have been forgotten by everyone on the entire continent of Teyvat, so why didn't Boss Ruota forget it?

Moreover, not only did Boss Ruota not forget, but even the stories he told before about the Great Compassionate Tree King were exactly the same as what Ying described. Isn't this a little bit wrong?

"Master Ruota, have you ever thought about this question? According to Ying, why do you still remember the Great Compassion Tree King?"

After thinking about it and still couldn't figure out the reason, Ruo Jin had to ask the Dragon King Rota, because in his impression, his own boss Rota was not a dragon from another world. As a dragon born and bred in the continent of Teyvat, boss Rota should not still remember the Great Compassion Tree King.

As soon as Ruo Jin said this, the smile on the face of the complacent Ruota Dragon King suddenly froze. Before, he was so busy being complacent that he didn't consider this problem at all. Now after Ruo Jin said this, Ruota Dragon King was a little puzzled.

Yes, why didn't he forget the Great Kindness Tree King? Even the God of Wisdom who controls the World Tree has forgotten the Great Kindness Tree King. Although he, the Dragon King, is confident that he can defeat the 500-year-old God of Wisdom in terms of strength, from the perspective of authority, he should not remember these things.

Could it be that he had been sealed for too long, and even the World Tree had forgotten about him as the Dragon King? So his final fate would be the same as the Great Compassion Tree King's, who would shout, "The world has forgotten me"?

A strange idea appeared in the mind of King Rodra, but then he hurriedly erased the idea from his mind. After all, it was too ridiculous. Although he didn't know much about the World Tree, he still knew that as long as he had appeared in the continent of Teyvat, the World Tree would not forget him.

After thinking for a while, he really couldn't figure out why, so King Ruota simply lay on the ground and stopped thinking about the reason. Anyway, this incident was not a bad thing for him, so he might as well remember it. Maybe if something like this happened again in the future, he would have to remind that brat Ruojin. Thinking of this, King Ruota said to Ruojin.

"Jin boy, I don't know why I remember it, but it's not a bad thing."

After hearing the answer from King Ruota, Ruo Jin knew that King Ruota really didn't know what was going on, so he didn't ask any more questions. After all, King Ruota was right, this was indeed not a bad thing.

"The World Tree is truly magical. Never mind, let's not think about it. Let's all go to bed early." After sighing at the magic of the World Tree, he glanced at the wall clock and found that it was already late at night. Ruo Jin stretched and prepared to go back to his room to sleep. He had been unable to sleep many nights these days because he had been thinking about how to make Hu Tao and Xiang Ling live forever. Now that he had found a way, Ruo Jin naturally wanted to have a good sleep.

"Hey, Ruojin, are you going to sleep? I was thinking of playing a game of Seven Summonings with you to relax."

"Why don't you play a game with me before going to sleep? Why are you wasting your time sleeping when you are so young?"

Ying, who had won the title of the master of staying up late in the other world, heard that Ruojin was going to bed. Ying, who had been addicted to playing cards recently because of Seno, felt a little regretful. Today, when she was helping Nashida deal with things, she accidentally got a card that could flash under the light. She had been thinking of showing off to Seno, but because she met Ruojin and others on the road and was tempted by free food and drinks, Ying forgot about it.

Now that everything was done, Ying remembered that she hadn't shown off her card yet, which made Ying immediately turn her attention to Ruojin. After all, among the crowd, Ying only knew that Ruojin could play the Seven Saints Summons, as for the remaining three, Hu Tao, Ying had never seen them play the Seven Saints Summons.

"Seven Saints Summons? It's not like I can't play a game with you, Ying."

Knowing all about Ying's card skills, Ruo Jin felt that it wouldn't take too long to play a round with Ying, so he stopped and took out the cards to play a round with Ying.

But as soon as Ruojin took out the cards, Hu Tao snatched the cards from Ruojin's hand. Under Ruojin's puzzled eyes, Hu Tao pushed Ruojin into the room and said with some complaints.

"A Jin, you have dark circles under your eyes, as if you've been walked around twice. You're still staying up late playing cards here. Go to sleep quickly. I'll take care of Ying."

Hu Tao could sense Ruo Jin's sleepiness, so when she saw Ruo Jin taking out cards and wanting to play a game, she confiscated Ruo Jin's cards. Hu Tao, who always believed that early to bed makes for good health and late to bed makes for a relaxed soul, naturally would not let Ruo Jin stay up late, so she just pushed Ruo Jin into the room.

In order to prevent Ruojin from having random thoughts and being unable to sleep, Kurumi thoughtfully provided Ruojin with a lap pillow service. This was something Kurumi learned from light novels when she was with Inazuma. At that time, the light novel clearly stated that no boy could resist the lap pillow of his beloved girl, and Kurumi always kept this sentence in mind.

And the facts proved that what the light novel said was not true. With his head resting on Hutao's legs and smelling the unique scent coming from Hutao's body, Ruojin only felt at ease. Of course, Ruojin did not forget to take the initiative to cut off the perception between him and the Dragon King Ruota. A few minutes later, with Ruojin's even breathing, Hutao covered Ruojin with a quilt and quietly walked out of the room.

As soon as she walked out of Ruojin's room, Hu Tao found Ying washing up. She stopped Ying and then, under Ying's puzzled look, Hu Tao took out the card she had snatched from Ruojin and said to Ying arrogantly.

"Ying, let this hall master come to meet you!"
