If he wasn't injured, he would've killed the toad and eaten its meat. He would've taken the water vine for himself.
But now, he had no choice but to retreat. He would deal with the toad when his wounds were healed.
The toad did not seem to notice Han Sen, or perhaps it was too lazy to care. Han Sen left the riverbank and did not continue to swim. He fetched a bucket of water and rode Meowth back to the cabin.
Chu Ming, seeing Han Sen return on Meowth, was surprised. He asked, "You have a pet beast soul?
What level is it? "
"Sacred-blood from the First God's Sanctuary," Han Sen answered.
"Why did you bring a sacred-blood pet from the First God's Sanctuary here?
You can't run as fast as you can on your own, "Chu Ming said with a smile.
"I am injured, so I can ride it."
Han Sen jumped off Meowth's back and took the bucket from it. He poured the water onto the roots of the Dragon-Blood Tree.
Then, he touched the Dragon-Blood Tree, and with a thought, he dropped a waterdrop onto the roots of the tree. It was quickly absorbed by the roots.
After that, Han Sen put the bucket aside and went back to the cabin to rest.
"That's it?" Chu Ming was shocked, and he quickly stopped Han Sen.
"Yes, it's done." Han Sen nodded.
"You're done just by watering it?" Chu Ming couldn't believe his ears, so he asked again.
"What else could I have done?" Han Sen asked with a smile.
Chu Ming slapped his forehead and said, "I knew I shouldn't have put too much hope in you. What's the point of watering it?"
"Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe," Han Sen said as he walked into the room.
Chu Ming was angry, and he said to Qu Lanxi, "This guy is just messing with us. He doesn't know how to take care of a tree.
It's just watering, even a three-year-old can do it. "
"Never mind. He's injured, and he shouldn't tire himself out." Qu Lanxi was not disappointed, as she had not put much hope in Han Sen.
Chu Ming was angry, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't kill Han Sen, though. Killing Han Sen wouldn't do him any good.
After Han Sen watered the tree, he didn't bother with it. He planned to wait until the next day to see how much of the lifeforce the tree could absorb.
If the Dragon-Blood Tree could absorb one water droplet per day, he'd have to find more geno plants.
Han Sen was in bed practicing the Blood-Pulse Sutra. He wanted to get better as soon as possible, but Meowth was walking around the gourd that Han Sen had placed next to his bed. It seemed to be very curious about the gourd.
Ever since Han Sen had been brought to the Third God's Sanctuary, the gourd had not changed. Aside from the fact that it was now pulsing, nothing else had changed.
When Han Sen was free, he tried everything he could to get the gourd to spit out a six-wheeled treasure. Unfortunately, nothing happened.
The next morning, Han Sen heard Chu Ming's screams from outside the house. "Oh, Chu Ming!
"How … How is this possible …" Chu Ming looked like he was in a daze as he stared at the Dragon Blood Tree in the yard.
"What happened?" Qu Lanxi came out of the house and looked at the Dragon-Blood Tree. She froze, too.
What had just happened to them was far more shocking than what had happened to the tree.
When Han Sen exited the house, Chu Ming ran up to him and grabbed him by the shirt. He asked, "How did you do that?"
"What do you mean, how did I do that?" Han Sen asked.
"How did you make the Dragon-Blood Tree look like this?" Chu Ming asked, pointing at the Dragon-Blood Tree.
Han Sen looked at the Dragon-Blood Tree, and he was shocked. The Dragon-Blood Tree was brimming with life. Its leaves were red, and from afar, it looked like the leaves of a maple tree.
In just one night, the Dragon-Blood Tree looked as if it had been a few months. It was so lush and full of leaves.
"It's growing that fast?"
Han Sen was shocked, too. He did not expect the Dragon-Blood Tree to grow so quickly after absorbing the water.
If he had known, he wouldn't have dripped the entire drop. It was too strange, and it would have raised suspicions.
"San Mu, what did you do?
How did the Dragon-Blood Tree grow so quickly? "Qu Lanxi asked, looking at Han Sen in shock.
The Dragon-Blood Tree had grown so much in a single night. It was almost like a dream.
"You saw what I did, didn't you?
I went to the river and got a bucket of water to water the Dragon-Blood Tree. I didn't do anything else. "
Han Sen opened his hands and swore to himself that he would not let the entire drop of water go down again.
"How could a bucket of river water make the Dragonblood Tree grow to this extent in a single night?
Tell me, what did you do? "Chu Ming asked impatiently.
"I really only watered it with a bucket of water," Han Sen said with a wry smile.
Chu Ming and Qu Lanxi did not believe him, but the truth was in front of them. They knew what Han Sen had done.
Han Sen was still injured, and he did not have the money to get the beast blood. Even if he did, Chu Ming and Qu Lanxi would have noticed.
It was hard to believe, but it seemed Han Sen really had only watered the Dragon-Blood Tree with a bucket of water, and it was growing at an incredible speed.
"If we had known all we had to do was water the Dragon-Blood Tree, we would have watered it a few years ago," Chu Ming said with regret.
"San Mu, do you really know how to grow trees?" Qu Lanxi looked at Han Sen as if she did not recognize him.
"Didn't I tell you? I learned a little from Professor Sun, but I didn't expect it to be so useful," Han Sen said with a smile.
As they spoke, Chu Ming picked up the bucket and ran out the door.
"Where are you going?" Han Sen asked Chu Ming.
"I'm going to the river to get more water for the Dragon-Blood Tree. It will help it grow faster," Chu Ming said with excitement.
Han Sen smiled and said, "Growing trees is not like putting out fires. It's not like the more water you give them, the better. The right amount is the most important. If you give them too much water, it could end up ruining the Dragon-Blood Tree."
Chu Ming heard Han Sen and put down the bucket. He ran back to Han Sen and said, "I'll do whatever you say."
