Although it felt a little incredible, Mu Lao estimated that this was the "thing" they were looking for.
However, this "thing" was not an item, but a living baby.
After seeing this strange baby, Mu Lao was more certain of his previous guess.
Otherwise, how could a baby appear strangely in this Xingdou Great Forest where countless soul beasts roamed, and it had not been eaten by soul beasts.
When they explored before, the two felt strange that there was no soul beast within a few miles around this baby.
What's even more strange is that after discovering Mu Lao and Xuan Lao, the baby stopped crying and showed a very cute smile.
"This, this is." Xuan Lao looked at this scene in surprise, but facing the cute look of the baby, his heart as an old virgin was warmed.
"Let's go back to the academy first, after all, this is still the territory of Emperor Tian." Although Mu Lao also had doubts in his heart, for the sake of safety, no matter what this child is, he should go back to the academy first.
For them, there is no safer place than the academy.
Xuan Lao nodded, picked up the baby on the ground, and the two of them flew quickly to the outside of the Star Forest.
Not long after the two left, a man in a black robe who looked to be in his forties appeared here.
After looking around nearby, the man raised his foot to leave, but he didn't know why he stopped.
In an instant, a terrifying pressure burst out from the man, and two solid golden lights burst out from his eyes.
The terrifying aura made all the soul beasts in the Star Forest shudder. The weak ones even crawled on the ground directly, as if to welcome the arrival of their emperor.
After testing with the breath and finding that there was indeed nothing suspicious here, the man turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the depths of the Star Forest.
However, neither Mu Lao nor the man in black noticed it.
Where the baby was lying just now, a green bud quietly emerged from the soil. There were some mysterious golden textures on the two small leaves, exuding a faint sacred breath.
Six years later, in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy.
"Well, Sister Xiaotao, don't run!"
A tiny little boy chased after a hot red figure and said in a baby voice.
Because he was chewing something, his originally childish voice seemed a little slurred.
"Xiaochen, don't bother me anymore. Can't you go find the senior sister?" The red figure sighed helplessly and turned around and said.
Her name is Ma Xiaotao. She is a student in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy and a direct disciple of Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the martial spirit department.
With her strength, she can leave, but the academy is so small, where can she run to?
Over the years, she has used her martial spirit to fly away more than once, but in the end she was found by this little ancestor until she agreed to the other party's conditions.
"Sister Lexuan is too fierce. I still like you, Sister Xiaotao. Please help me." Xiaochen said aggrievedly, tears began to roll in his eyes, as if as long as Ma Xiaotao said no, tears would fall.
"No! I still need to practice, how can I help you find animal milk!" Ma Xiaotao said with a dark face and an extremely firm tone. After that, she turned around and was about to leave.
Xiaochen had used this method of pretending to be pitiful on her countless times. At first, she would be fooled, but after using it many times, she became immune to it.
She really couldn't understand it. This little guy was already six years old, and he was still shouting for animal milk every day. Other children at this age would have been weaned long ago. "Hmph, I'm done with you. You won't help me find the beast milk. Then I'll drink yours!" Xiaochen stomped his feet on the spot. His little face looked so angry, which was indescribably cute.
Ma Xiaotao, who had already walked a distance, staggered on the spot when she heard this and almost lost her balance.
Not wanting to stay with this little ancestor anymore, Ma Xiaotao directly released the evil fire phoenix spirit and flew towards the outer courtyard.
She is still a student in the outer courtyard, but as a direct disciple of the dean of the spirit department, she will go to the inner courtyard regularly to learn from her teacher.
"Well, I'd better go to Grandpa Gong in the Colosseum. I remember that there is a big earth bear that just gave birth there. There must be no shortage of beast milk!" Xiaochen murmured, revealing a cunning look that did not match his age.
Xiaochen's name is Yechen. He is the child that Mu Lao and Xuan Lao picked up from the Xingdou Great Forest that night six years ago.
At that time, the mysterious energy that could not be penetrated by the spirit in the Xingdou Great Forest disappeared strangely after leaving there. After Mu Lao confirmed that he was a real human baby, he took him back to the Poseidon Pavilion.
When Mu Lao saw him for the first time that day, he seemed to be a star falling from the night sky, so he named him Yechen.
Qian Duoduo, one of the members of the Poseidon Pavilion, and Xian Lin'er, another member of the Poseidon Pavilion, were in a fake marriage, but they had been married for many years and had no children. So when Mu Lao just picked up Yechen, Xian Lin'er, who was full of maternal love, decisively adopted him.
Qian Duoduo didn't say anything about this. Looking at Xian Lin'er who seemed to become happy in an instant, a trace of happiness emerged in his heart.
Because Yechen was very cheerful, lively and cute since he was a child, he was very popular with the old people in the Poseidon Pavilion, and there was a happy fruit who was very good at adjusting the atmosphere. The atmosphere in the Poseidon Pavilion under normal circumstances became much happier.
In six years, he grew up to his current cute appearance under the care of the elders.
Everyone seemed to have forgotten the vision six years ago and never mentioned it. Ye Chen's true origin was also concealed by Mu Lao and Xuan Lao, who only said that he was a child picked up from the gate of Shrek City.
In fact, in the past six years, Ye Chen has always kept a secret in his heart.
He was originally an ordinary college student on Earth in the 21st century. Although he grew up in an orphanage, he had a cheerful personality and was carefree in his dealings with others.
Coincidentally, his original name was Ye Chen, which happened to be the same pronunciation as the name given by Mu Lao.
At that time, he was hanging clothes on the balcony of the dormitory, but he saw a leaf hit him at a very slow speed and disappeared.
That's right, it was a leaf.
There were some strange golden textures on the leaf. It was obviously very slow, but he wanted to avoid it, but found that his body could not move at all, and he just watched the leaf enter his body.
The whole process seemed to have lasted for a century, but it happened in an instant.
After that, he felt dizzy and passed out. When he woke up, he found himself in a dense forest and turned into a baby.
Don't be fooled by the appearance of the protagonist. The protagonist is not a playboy. He just occasionally flirts with others. And the beast milk thing was a joke in the early stage, and it only appeared a few times.
