Chapter 589: Chapter 589: Braised Pork

Bai Xiqin gently touched the small purple flower, and the petals of the Mutated Mandala Flower swayed lightly twice, barely touching Bai Xiqin’s fingertip.

A slight itch spread from her fingertip.

It seemed to be trying to please her.

When the Mandala Flower was first tamed, it was still unwilling, but now it was very subservient.

The change in attitude came so fast that Bai Xiqin didn’t even react, thinking it would take a long time of "threats and intimidation"!

The environment in the space is much denser in Spiritual Energy than the remote mountains and forests, making it perfect for plant growth.

Especially since they recently planted a Fusang Tree, the rich vitality is like heaven for plants.

After a while, the fragrance of the Mutated Mandala Flower will become even more intense, greatly increasing its ability to tempt and bewilder the mind.

Bai Xiqin half-squatted on the ground, looking at the root of the Fusang Tree.

The Fusang Tree branched out into a similar trunk, with the two trunks connecting in the middle, the roots and upper parts separate, looking like two trees but actually one, and indeed truly two.

Bai Xiqin saw the root of the Mutated Mandala Flower entwined with one of the Fusang Tree’s roots, nearly becoming one.

The Mandala Flower’s roots were delicate, yet showed signs of assimilating the Fusang Tree’s roots.

Compared to the root of the other Fusang Tree, the one entwined by the Mandala Flower’s roots was turning paler, and its small offshoots increasingly resembled the Mutated Mandala Flower’s roots.

It’s conceivable that after a while, the Mandala Flower can fully assimilate one of the Fusang Trees.

By then, the Fusang Trees would no longer support each other but would be supported by the Mutated Mandala Flower instead.

The two complement each other.

"With such a small body, you have such a big appetite. Can you really swallow such a large Fusang Tree?"

Bai Xiqin raised an eyebrow, reaching out to touch the root of the Mutated Mandala Flower.

The roots were very fragile; Bai Xiqin could break them with just a bit of force.

The Mutated Mandala Flower swayed its petals again, this time at a somewhat quick pace, clearly upset.

It was pouting, but didn’t dare confront its master, only sulking quietly.

Bai Xiqin chuckled, yet felt a bit of anticipation!

In mythical stories and legends, there are many tales of plants and animals cultivating into human forms, something Bai Xiqin has yet to see and wonders if it exists.

After the great changes in the world, various Zombies and Mutant Animals have become the biggest obstacle for human survival.

Human Superpower Users can only use their powers to protect themselves, while Wood Ability Users can control Mutated Plants, making them their powerful allies.

Unlike human Superpower Users, Mutated Plants can mutate again on their original basis, growing rapidly as long as they can actively absorb.

As for how much they can grow, it still depends on their innate talent.

Bai Xiqin glanced at the Mutated Climbing Vine rooted beside the Fusang Tree, the Mutated Plant belonging to Old Master Bai Zhengxuan.

Usually, the Mutated Climbing Vine would coil around Bai Zhengxuan’s wrist, occasionally helping in fights.

It leaves part of itself rooted in the space, striving to grow robustly without wasting any time.

When Bai Zhengxuan enters the space, the clone and the main body merge, transferring most of the energy to the main body. When the master leaves, the clone separates again and roots in the space to absorb energy.

With every merge and separation, the Mutated Climbing Vine grows much stronger.

Occasionally, when a leaf from the Fusang Tree falls to the ground, the green vine quietly rolls the leaf over, using it as its own nourishment.

It’s not as greedy as the Mutated Mandala Flower to consume an entire Fusang Tree; a few leaves are enough.

"Xiao Niu, bring your grandfather and the others in! The food is ready."

Liu Jing, wearing an apron, filled the large iron pots for the five little beasts, smiling as she began organizing the Bai Family’s lunch.

Nearby the five large iron pots is a large table, where the Bai Family eats.

The table is already set with various dishes; chicken stewed with mushrooms is placed in the center, but only one bowl.

―It seems there’s not as much as in the five little beasts’ large iron pots.

However, there’s a variety of dishes on the table, including both cold and hot dishes.

Liu Jing and Wang Yiyun don’t cook often, but that doesn’t mean they can’t cook. With such delicious ingredients in the space, any casual stir-fry becomes a delicacy.

"Alright!"

Bai Xiqin rubbed her stomach, suddenly feeling it empty.

In the past few days, she has two sets of memories: one is of dazing inside the space, watching outside, and the other is the memories experienced by this body itself.

She always feels like she needs to eat two meals these days.

Bai Xiqin didn’t hesitate at all and came out of the space directly.

Just as the three grandfathers were waking up, it’s time to eat and not to sleep; otherwise, no one would cook at home.

The grandfathers were just about to get up and cook when Bai Xiqin brought them into the space.

"Elder sister, have you recovered your memory?"

Bai Yifan’s eyes sparkled upon seeing the beautiful scenery that suddenly appeared before him.

Finally, no more worry!

From now on, he can safely hide behind his elder sister and sponge off of her!

To sponge off someone, he feels proud.

"Everything’s alright?"

The smile on Bai Zhengxuan’s face became more pronounced, his eyes crinkling up.

"Everything is back," Bai Xiqin nodded with a smile, walking toward the table with the three of them.

"Good that you remember," Bai Anhai’s face held a gentle smile as he suddenly asked, "Xiao Niu, didn’t you say yesterday that you wanted my braised pork? There won’t be any this lunch, but I’ll make it for you tonight!"

Xiao Niu paused slightly, then smiled at Bai Anhai,

"Dad, did Bai Yifan confuse you? You spent all day collecting Crystal Cores yesterday; how could I have talked to you!"

"It seems I remembered wrong. No worries, I’ll make it for you tonight, as much as you want!"

Bai Anhai’s smile widened, a fleeting worry passing quickly through his eyes, as if nothing had happened, and he went to help Wang Yiyun with the remaining dishes.

In truth, he was also afraid.

What Bai Yifan could think of, how could he have not thought of it?

As a lawyer, he is the most meticulous, and the memory node where Xiao Niu lost her memory is the same as when she dreamed of the future.

To be honest, Bai Anhai considered first whether there are two Xiao Nius, one from the future and one from this world’s original Xiao Niu.

To him, they are both his daughters, one he can’t part with either.

His greatest fear was that one side would disappear.

Now hearing Bai Xiqin recount yesterday’s events, it means he guessed wrong. The current Xiao Niu is the same as the one who lost her memory yesterday, as well as the past Xiao Niu.

They are all the same person.

No one disappeared, and no one replaced anyone else.

Bai Xiqin looked at Bai Anhai’s smiling face and let out a slight sigh of relief.

She doesn’t feel like she made her past self disappear; they completely fused together, like a fusion of brainwaves, essentially the same person.

Even so, she didn’t mention seeing her amnesiac self from inside the space.

Maybe originally it didn’t seem like much, but saying so might make everyone more or less worried.

Worried that one Xiao Niu might disappear.

"Dad is really strange, I haven’t upset him these past few days, why is his memory all jumbled?" Bai Yifan whispered to Bai Xiqin, "Could it be senile dementia?"
