In Teyvat, it all begins with rescuing the grass god.

The Great Tree King stated this openly and frankly.

"That's it"

Rod stroked his chin and began to ponder.

The Great Tree King still holds power, which means she is still dividing the power of the Grass God.

This may not necessarily be related to the fact that she is the King of the Great Tree.

It is very likely because her body was formed from spiritual light.

After all, the Flower Goddess once held the authority of the Grass Goddess, and it's not impossible that she could pass it on to the newly born Great Tree King through spiritual light.

"You don't have to worry."

As the Great Tree King said, she could not read Rhodes's mind, but she could still easily judge what Rhodes was thinking from his facial expressions.

“Never competed with me for control of Sumeru when Nabu was still alive.”

"Don't tell me that we are essentially one entity."

"But...~~~"

The Great Tree King chuckled: "This City of Hope is quite nice, I like it very much, you can leave it to me from now on."

"Uh"

"I have no opinion."

Narcida couldn't possibly refuse this request, and Rhodes naturally wouldn't say anything awkward. Then he asked, "By the way, how long until you can get rid of this flower? I'd like to make some preparations."

"It should be ready by tomorrow."

This answer is very accurate.

only.

The voice that answered this question did not belong to the Great Tree King.

The familiar voice made Rhodes' pupils shrink suddenly, and he hurriedly turned around to look with a wary expression.

Appepp!

It really was her!!!

She was exactly the same as the one I had seen inside Apep's body, with green hair, green clothes, and green eyes. At first glance, she appeared to be a tall woman with a gentle and quiet demeanor.

"What? Don't you recognize me?"

Apep glanced at Rod, then walked up to Patishalan and touched the buds that were about to bloom.

Yes, it was just stroking; there was nothing too intense.

"you?"

Rhodes's mind raced with many questions, but in the end, only one question came to mind: "Why are you here?"

211. Chapter 201 Appepp's Ideas

Chapter 201 Appepp's Ideas

Yes, why is Appepp here?

In this regard.

Apep replied, "I've lived here for a while, but I only came to take a look today because I saw that you, a human who dared to be so disrespectful to me, have returned."

"!!!"

"???"

Have you been living in the city for a long time?

Rhodes' eyelids twitched violently.

I'll be a good boy.

This dangerous mother dragon had actually stayed right under our noses for more than just a day or two?

For Appepp.

Rhodes remained wary, as did Narcida.

Apep's attitude towards humans and gods is extremely unfriendly.

Treat her.

At most, it might only make her temporarily give up her revenge against Xumi, but it doesn't guarantee that she will still harbor malice towards Xumi.

Once the opportunity for revenge against Heaven is regained.

Both Rhodes and Narcida believed she would never miss it.

I never expected that this dangerous guy would appear in Hope City so brazenly.

"What's that look in your eyes?"

Apep asked in an icy voice.

She didn't even turn her head, yet it was as if she could see all of Rhodes's expressions.

"Uh"

How do you say this?

alert?

Worry?

what is this else?

Rhodes had nothing to say, he could only shake his head and say, "It's nothing, I just didn't expect you to come."

"Just looking at my daughter."

Appepp's use of the Great Tree King's title once again made Rod's eyelids twitch.

daughter!

When it was discovered that the elemental power of the Oasis Source was accelerating the reshaping of the Great Tree King's body, Nasita said that after the Great Tree King was reborn, it would become a branch of the Grass Dragon.

The current nickname for Apep fully confirms this conjecture.

A sudden alarm bell rang in Rhodes's mind.

It can face the Grass Dragon.

He couldn't utter a single word; a deep sense of powerlessness welled up inside him.

Even after recovering from a serious illness, Apep's strength is still beyond what Sumeru can currently withstand.

This can be seen from the fact that she had been lying low in Hope City for an unknown period of time, while Nasida was completely unaware of it.

To put it pessimistically...

The gap between Apep and Nasita may be bigger than that between a person and a can of fruit.

Not to mention that before the Great Compassion Tree King was resurrected, Sumeru's most powerful fighting force was Nasita.

She was powerless to resist Appepp, let alone anyone else.

"puff--"

"Hahaha--"

"Please stop teasing him."

Just as Rhodes was lost in thought, the Great Tree King, who had been secretly observing for a long time, suddenly burst out laughing.

"Humph--"

Apep snorted coldly, glancing sideways at Rhodes and saying, "A tiny human like you has quite the nerve. You're still ten thousand years away from killing me."

"."

"no."

Rhodes looked left and right, trying to discern anything unusual from the faces of Apep and the Great Tree King.

He suddenly realized.

These two people seemed to have known each other for a long time; they looked like old friends.

“I watched Amon swallow her body.”

The Great Compassion Tree King quietly dropped another bombshell.

then.

She then recounted what happened back then, leaving Rod speechless.

Apep and the Great Tree King actually knew each other long ago.

However, at that time, the Red King went too far with his forbidden knowledge, and the entire Sumeru was at risk of being destroyed.

When the Great Tree King was entrusted by the Red King to use his power to cleanse forbidden knowledge, Apep emerged from the yellow sand and, in front of the people of the Red Kingdom, swallowed the Red King's body as promised.

She then went into a state of frenzy.

The clash between forbidden knowledge and elemental power caused intense pain, driving Apep into a frenzy that disrupted the peace of the entire Sumeru region.

At that time, the Great Tree King, who was busy cleaning up the mess for the Red King, had to free up his hands to forcibly appease Apep, whose resentment towards the three gods of Sumeru had reached its peak.

In the end, she sent Apep to the Grass Dragon Palace, made a pact with the Grass Dragon's people, and used her last strength to create a spark that could reactivate the Heart of the Oasis.

"so."

"You sent out the Source of the Oasis specifically to save people?"

Rhodes understood what the Great Tree King had said and realized the relationship between Apep and her.

"The relationship between you two is really complicated."

As he spoke, Rod rubbed his temples.
