Once, I wanted to be a good person

In fact, it was almost exactly so. As the Incarnation Vessel cultivated by the Flower God for fifty years, Little Grass possessed a plentiful supply of Plant Essence within her. Moreover, the level of this Plant Essence was particularly high; even if she didn't actively use it, the mere dispersion of energy would stimulate the plants to grow rapidly.

Thus, in just a short span of half a month, Villa No. 8's yard was covered in a variety of plants—there were small trees just reaching the courtyard wall, weeds as tall as a person, and wildflowers swaying by the roadside.

Upon entering Villa No. 8 and heading upstairs, Little Grass was squatting next to Strong Plant, tilting her head and quietly observing it. She was clearly quite happy, as the two tender buds on her head gently swayed back and forth.

"Little Grass."

Hearing Fang Ze's voice, Little Grass turned around in surprise. Upon confirming it truly was Fang Ze coming to see her, she quickly stood up and "dada dada" ran over to his side, stretching out her small hands and gesticulating "ya ya ya~".

That scene was getting cuter by the moment, but sadly... Fang Ze didn't understand her at all.

So, Fang Ze gestured for her to stop for a moment, and explained in as simple language as he could, "Little Grass, I need your cooperation with something."

Seeing Little Grass nod, Fang Ze continued, "Previously, in order to save you, I made you my subordinate. So between us, a faint connection has formed."

"Just by seeing me, you will involuntarily want to obey, to submit, right?"

Upon hearing Fang Ze's words, Little Grass sensed for a moment and then nodded her head.

Fang Ze said, "Next, I'm going to split into two people. Then you sense again."

"If you feel a connection to the me on the left, then point to the left me, if it's to the right me, point to the right me."

"If you feel a connection to both, then nod your head at me. If there's no connection to either, then shake your head at me."

"Got it?"

Seeing Little Grass nod again, Fang Ze no longer hesitated and his body vibrated, a faint golden light suddenly diffusing from his body. The light drifted to the side and formed a new Fang Ze.

Then, both Fang Zes looked at Little Grass simultaneously and asked in unison, "Little Grass, sense for a moment now."

Hearing Fang Ze's words, Little Grass curiously glanced at the Fang Ze on the left, then at the one on the right, and then she closed her eyes to sense for a moment. Shortly after, her hand rose up, pointing towards the left Fang Ze: that is, the newly formed Fang Ze.

Seeing Little Grass making a distinction, Fang Ze also felt a sense of understanding, but at that moment he couldn't help but begin to ponder...

"Is it the soul again?"

"It seems...all abilities and effects are bound to the soul."

"Looks like the physical body really isn't very useful, is it?"

"Is it because my realm is too low?"

Fang Ze was somewhat hesitant.

However, it was also for this reason that he understood why so many human sages, upon advancing to the Spirit Ascension stage, chose to burn their physical bodies.

"But no matter. If it's not useful now, it might be at a higher realm in the future."

With that thought, Fang Ze stopped dwelling on it and took out the Makeup Mushroom he had prepared, asking Little Grass, "Little Grass, can you plant this?"

Little Grass stood on tiptoes to take the mushroom from Fang Ze's hand, studied it carefully, sniffed it, and finally held it to her chest to sense it.

After sensing, she "dada dada" ran downstairs.

Suddenly, the sound of "crack crack" breaking branches came from below. Moments later, Little Grass struggled to drag half a tree back up to the rooftop of the villa.

Then she looked at Fang Ze, and her small hand gestured up and down several times on the trunk. After that, she spread her hands and called out adorably, "Boom~!"

Fang Ze:.....

Fang Ze asked hesitantly, "Do you mean...you want me to turn this tree into powder?"

Little Grass quickly nodded.

Fang Ze smiled awkwardly. This little creature's gestures were quite expressive...

Fang Ze, having advanced to the Yang Transformation stage, now possessed the ability to directly manipulate the Power of Laws. So with a wave of his hand in the air towards the small tree, time seemed to freeze in that moment. Immediately after, with a loud "boom!", the small tree exploded into a cloud of dust.

With another wave of his hand, Fang Ze gathered the dust pile in front of Little Grass.

Little Grass, with her short little legs, diligently used a shovel to spread the wood dust on the soil next to Strong Plant.

Afterward, she carefully pinched the Makeup Mushroom into small pieces, burying them in the soil.

Having done all this, Little Grass put her hands together at her chest and stood amidst the soil. Shortly, waves of green aura emerged around her. The aura seemed alive, seeping into the ground below.

Before long, accompanied by the green light, clumps of mycelium began to grow out of the soil.

Witnessing this magical moment, Fang Ze's eyes widened. He had always thought Little Grass planting things involved just standing there, letting her energy flow freely, and had no idea she had such an ability!

Beautiful little farmer?

Fang Ze found it rather nice.

And while Fang Ze was thinking this, Little Grass, wiping her sweat, tiptoed out of the ground to come before Fang Ze. She looked up at him, puffed out her chest proudly, and started calling out triumphantly, "Ya ya ya~".

Seeing her adorable demeanor, Fang Ze smiled and bent down to pat her head then asked, "Little Grass, how long will it take for these mushrooms to mature?"

Little Grass extended one finger.

Fang Ze hesitated for a moment, "One year?"
