Elf: Start with small diamonds, then mutate into Diancie!

"Master Chan Ninja said quietly."

"Master of Cicada Ninja—"

The group seemed to want to say something, but before they could speak, they sensed an aura locking onto them, and they froze instantly.

Chan Shinobu slightly raised her hand and pressed down. The Pokémon that had appeared behind her at some unknown time, resembling a cicada shedding its skin and with a white halo on its head, once again disappeared into the shadows.

Chanren gave a meaningful warning: "Remember, the Shenzhou Alliance is not someone we can mess with now. Just complete the entire journey honestly."

It would be good to obtain additional information, but it's okay if we can't.

As the only Master-level Trainer in the Sakura Kingdom Alliance, and with the Zarude becoming increasingly hostile, he is the Alliance's most important asset. Whether a mission is completed or not depends entirely on his word.

Offending the powerful Shenzhou Alliance at the moment will bring no benefit.

Moreover, compared to the secrets hidden in Wulingyuan, he is now more worried about the territory of the Sakura Kingdom Alliance.

He always felt that some earth-shattering conspiracy was brewing.

His sixth sense, a trait he developed as a former ninja, was constantly reminding him.

Let's finish the match as soon as possible and go home.

....................................

"Is this the Wulingyuan Nature Reserve?"

Stepping out of the SUV, Su Hao gazed at the scenery ahead with an expression of amazement.

Looking out, a vast natural environment radiates outwards, with several river valley basins faintly visible.

The most eye-catching feature is the spectacular quartz sandstone peak forest with its overlapping peaks and verdant forests.

Countless quartz sandstone peaks rise abruptly from the ground, each with its own unique shape, steep and majestic, and are incredibly magnificent under the dazzling sunlight, leaving people in awe.

Su Hao vaguely remembered that the setting of the animated film Seven Nights of Wishing Star, "Faens", was based on Wulingyuan.

Furthermore, with Master Zhang Xuan, who is suspected of having received Jirachi's blessing, and Natura staying here, could this really be Jirachi's sleeping place?

At this moment, Shen Yun, carrying a pile of gifts, also got out of the car and urged, "The Sakura Kingdom Alliance has been on their way for a while now. Let's hurry to the village to pay our respects to Master Zhang Xuan first, and then prepare for battle."

Because the road ahead was difficult to travel, the remaining stretch to the village could only be traversed on foot.

Looking at the narrow, treacherous path that almost clung to the vertical rock face, where one could only move by pressing their back against the rock, Su Hao was very suspicious that Shen Yun, carrying that pile of things, might accidentally fall and become a gift from nature.

"Never mind, I'll get some for you."

A faint purple light flickered in Su Hao's golden eyes. He beckoned with his finger, and the pile of things in Shen Yun's hands seemed to be lifted by an invisible hand, floating directly in mid-air.

"That's great, superpowers."

Shen Yun felt incredibly envious, as if she had eaten ten pounds of lemons.

If I had superpowers, I wouldn't have to carry groceries to and from get off work every day, and I could even prepare dinner after working overtime just by snapping my fingers like Su Hao does.

Damn, it's so sour!

Compared to Shen Yun's hesitant and timid manner when crossing this dangerous road, Su Hao was much more composed.

He had a support made of his mind power under his feet, so even though the path was narrow and dangerous and his right foot almost missed the mark, it did not affect his progress.

To put it simply, a Dou Zong level expert can tread on the void!

Although his superpower talent isn't that great, and he can't use telekinesis to lift his entire body and fly.

However, with experience in manipulating waveguide power, precise control of telekinesis is not a problem.

If you look at things from a different perspective, like Su Hao who is simply using his mental power to create a foothold, even he can step on his left foot and step on his right foot to fly into the sky.

Haha, Groudon, I won again!

After traversing the treacherous path, a boardwalk leading to a relatively wide corner of a quartz sandstone peak comes into view.

Walking along this boardwalk will take you to the village where Master Zhang Xuan usually lived.

Before long, the two arrived at a small village built near the rocky peak.

The village was very small, with most of the houses being low, single-story buildings, the tallest being no more than two stories. Due to its special location, the building materials for these houses were transported little by little by flying Pokémon sent by the League.

Su Hao was somewhat familiar with this village. He remembered that it was inhabited by older forest rangers from Wulingyuan who were unwilling to share the forest ranger's quarters with younger people.

It was patrol time, and there were hardly any people to be seen in the village. Occasionally, a few guard dogs would bark wildly at Shen Yun, who had an unfamiliar aura.

When a hyena barked fiercely at her a few more times, Shen Yun, unable to bear the injustice any longer, finally snapped.

She pointed at Su Hao, who looked completely at ease and like he was watching a show, and asked the wolfhound incredulously, "Don't just yell at me, yell at him too!"

Even the wolfhound was startled by Shen Yun's sudden outburst, its gaze falling on Su Hao, whom she was pointing at.

The wolfhound's bright black eyes darted around, its fluffy gray tail wagged, and it leaned forward to affectionately lick Su Hao's deliberately extended fingertip with its pink little tongue.

"Good puppy~"

Su Hao reached out and stroked the wolfhound's head again, a bright smile mixed with a hint of admiration on his face.

It's truly been a difficult journey for me to evolve from being universally disliked in my neighborhood as a child to where I am today.

Thinking of this, Su Hao glanced at Shen Yun with a smug look.

Hearing the coyote's happy whimpering and Su Hao's mocking remarks, Shen Yun felt like the sky was about to fall.

I'm resigning! Immediately! Right now!

Before Shen Yun could turn her thoughts into reality, an old but peaceful voice rang out.

"Most Pokémon are friendly to the holder of the Power of Viridian, with native species of Viridian Forest being the most prominent among them."

"Most other Pokémon, even if they don't act too affectionately, will sense a comfortable aura from the other and subconsciously treat the other in a friendly manner."

Zhang Xuan, dressed like an ordinary village woman, was carrying a bird carrier, clearly out for a bird walk.

However, the bird she was walking was unusual; it was not only a Master-level Pokémon, but also nearly 1.5 meters tall.

The bird stood steadily on the bird carrier that Zhang Xuan was carrying, staring blankly at the dazzling sun overhead, its wise eyes seeming to see through everything.

Zhang Xuan, a seemingly ordinary old village woman, does things that are anything but ordinary.

Even the astonished Su Hao and Shen Yun knew that it wasn't Zhang Xuan who was bearing the weight of the bird bar and the natural bird's body, but rather the natural bird's own psychic power.

They understand the logic, but that doesn't stop them from silently thinking "awesome!"

This must be what they call a sense of ritual.

................................................

Zhang Xuan led the two of them to her usual residence.

The room was fairly ordinary, but it was clean and had a lived-in feel.

There was no sofa in the room, only a few small stools and a small round table.

One of the small stools was borrowed from Zhang Xuan by her neighbor.

It's hard to imagine that a master-level trainer with combat power comparable to a national treasure would live in such an ordinary environment.

Su Hao had just sat down when Shen Yun was also there sorting out the gifts, explaining to the smiling Zhang Xuan which items were brought in by the descendants of the older generation of forest rangers who lived here.

After all, the Wulingyuan Nature Reserve is home to many rare wild Pokémon, and most of the time it is not allowed to enter and visit.

Su Hao hadn't even settled into his seat when there was a knock on the door.

Boom boom boom!

After Zhang Xuan responded, the door creaked open, and Su Hao, who was staring at the natural bird, noticed a slender black shadow rushing towards him.

Su Hao, who had instinctively caught the other person, looked closely and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Isn't this Meloetta, which I haven't seen for a while?

"Melo!"

Meloeta called out to the old man outside, urging him on, and Su Hao looked over.

Unsurprisingly, it was Hua Dongmei, the elderly woman who was in charge of taking care of Meloeta.

Looking at them, and then at Zhang Xuan who seemed completely unsurprised, Su Hao suddenly realized that the neighbor who lent Zhang Xuan the small stool might be the other person.

"They are currently living here under our protection while awaiting the completion of the resettlement site."

Zhang Xuan walked over and began to explain.

"Su Guanjun, I am grateful for your help not long ago."

Hua Dongmei nodded in confirmation.

Su Hao nodded knowingly, stroked Meloeta's soft hair, and asked in a low voice, "Are you having a good time here?"

"Melomelo!"

Meloeta nodded emphatically.

Although it's not like the United Nations headquarters, which has many dazzling things here.

But it also made many friends in the wild here and had a great time every day.

Since Meloeta said so, Su Hao felt relieved.

The bird that had been sitting on the table suddenly chirped.

Knowing her partner's meaning, Zhang Xuan said, "The people from the Sakura Country Alliance will be here soon. Let me give you a heads-up about why we've asked you to come."

Sensing that Su Hao and the others were about to discuss serious matters, Shen Yun consciously left the room, while Su Hao also became fully focused.

Zhang Xuan didn't mince words and got straight to the point with her first sentence.

"I wonder if you have heard of the once-in-a-millennium miracle, the legend of the seven nights of wishing stars."

Chapter 1403 VS Sakura Master, the lightning-fast Iron-Faced Ninja and Diancie's counterattack!

In a secluded valley within the protected area, countless towering quartz sandstone peaks rise atop.

It was winter, and a cold wind was blowing.

The cold wind blew the hems of their clothes, creating an atmosphere of a showdown at the top of the Forbidden City between the two men.
