Chapter 708: World Tree's Assist
The petals of the World Tree... have become very, very expensive now.
They were already very precious, and after the World Tree "fell", they became even more precious.
After all, few people know that the World Tree is still alive.
In the minds of most people, the World Tree is dead.
Therefore, the current price of the petals of the World Tree has reached an exaggerated level.
Those nobles who are powerful but have entered their old age and are approaching death are eager for this thing to the point of being crazy.
As long as they hear that someone has it, they will grab it if they can't buy it.
Only if you eat it and there is no more, will they give up.
Otherwise, they will always think about putting the petals of the World Tree into their stomachs.
"You didn't tell Victor about this?" Hardy was a little surprised.
Mrs. Anna looked around and whispered, "Can we go in and talk?"
This time is actually a little inconvenient, but looking at the petals of the World Tree in the other person's hand, Hardy still agreed.
When the door was closed, the room was dark, with only faint starlight coming in from the window, making the visibility in the room barely enough to see things.
As Mrs. Anna came in, a faint fragrance filled the room.
Mrs. Anna placed the silver box on the table and opened it.
Two petals of the World Tree emitting a faint purple light appeared in the eyes of the two.
Hardy had seen this thing many times and didn't think it was strange.
After all, there were more than 20 pieces of this thing in his secret room.
But in Mrs. Anna's eyes, there was excitement and possession.
Hardy looked at the other party quietly, waiting for the other party to speak first.
"Hardy..." Mrs. Anna looked up, her eyes full of strange emotions.
Like joy, but also like guilt.
Hardy thought for a while and asked, "Who are you looking at through my appearance? My father, old Hardy?"
Mrs. Anna was stunned for a moment, and then her expression gradually lost: "That's right, although you look almost exactly the same, you are not him, he is more gentle."
Hardy smiled softly: "It was you who abandoned old Hardy back then. It's not appropriate for you to put on such an expression now."
He was not interested in the love triangle between Hardy's biological mother, father and Anna, and he didn't want to understand it.
Mrs. Anna's expression became a little embarrassed.
She took a breath and said, "I didn't tell Victor about these two world petals."
"Why?" Hardy was a little curious.
Mrs. Anna said a little depressed: "If Victor knew, he would definitely give these two petals to his nephew."
That is, Peter's children.
"So, you want to keep it all?"
Mrs. Anna's eyes were full of shame and guilt, but she still met Hardy's gaze and said, "I really want to keep it all, but you have also seen this thing, so... let's each have one."
Women care very much about their appearance.
Mrs. Anna only ate one petal of the World Tree.
But with this one petal, her appearance returned from thirty years old to about twenty-two years old.
The beauty of returning to youth is no different from drugs for women.
You can't quit it.
If Hardy hadn't seen these two petals, if Hardy hadn't been very strong, Mrs. Anna would probably find a way to keep the petals all.
Haddy smiled lightly, without sarcasm or ridicule, only calmness.
"I don't need the petals, you can eat them all yourself." Hardy stretched out his hand and raised it lightly, then said: "I won't talk about this to anyone."
Mrs. Anna was stunned, staring at Hardy with wide eyes in disbelief.
Outside, the price of the petals of the World Tree has been hyped to a very outrageous level.
It can even cause a small-scale conflict.
But in Hardy's case, he was so calm.
She didn't dare to believe it, nor did she dare to gamble.
In her opinion, Hardy did this for a reason.
It was definitely a trap.
"So, what's the price, Hardy?"
Mrs. Anna's eyes flashed with a faint light like argon fluorine in the dark.
It was a bit like a fox, and a bit like a venomous snake.
"No price." Hardy shook his head slightly.
Mrs. Anna took two steps forward and squatted in front of Hardy, but put her hand on Hardy's lower abdomen: "Is it this?"
She opened her mouth slightly, and was about to meet him.
But Hardy was faster. He reached down and grabbed Mrs. Anna's hair, lifted her up, and let her look at him.
"I said, no price."
This action was actually very humiliating, but Mrs. Anna didn't care. She looked into Hardy's eyes steadily, as if she wanted to see through the boy's mind.
"I don't believe it." Mrs. Anna said with a weak but firm tone: "Everything in this world has a price. In order to become a noble lady, I gave up my beloved childhood sweetheart. In order to become a powerful professional, I gave up the ability to give birth. And now, for the sake of youth, I must give up something very important."
"Your morality, or your sense of shame?" Hardy asked with a smile.
"No, it's my love." Mrs. Anna looked at Hardy's face and murmured: "I have only loved one man, your father. But now... I can fall in love with you."
Women's brain circuits are always very strange.
Whether you love or not has nothing to do with the petals of the World Tree.
Hadi couldn't understand, but that didn't stop him from refusing.
"No, I'm not interested in your love." Hardy waved his hand and said, "You can eat those two petals if you want. I won't mention it to anyone."
"Why?" A strong sense of uneasiness appeared in Mrs. Anna's eyes.
She was used to trading and paying.
Suddenly... someone didn't need to pay and treated her well for free. She was not used to it.
It would be even more uneasy.
Hardy keenly noticed the uneasy expression on Mrs. Anna's face. He sighed slightly and said, "If I have to say it, I hope another woman can stay young forever, another you."
"Another me?"
Mrs. Anna's eyes widened again.
"Another you is my woman." Hardy said helplessly, "She is in your body. If you are young, she is young. If you die, she will die. So I am helping her, not you. Do you understand?"
Mrs. Anna showed an incredible look on her face: "Is that why?"
"Do you need any other reasons?" Hardy asked back.
Mrs. Anna shook her body subconsciously: "Is it that simple?"
Hadi did not answer and was about to drive her away, when another woman's happy laughter suddenly rang out in the room.
The elemental body Anna "drilled" out of Mrs. Anna's body.
After she appeared, she immediately hugged Hardy and kissed Hardy several times excitedly: "So you are so good to me."
Hadi subconsciously hugged the elemental body and pinched the soft flesh behind her.
"Hmm!"
"Hmm!"
Two voices rang out at the same time.
Hadi looked at his arms and blushed.
Looking at Mrs. Anna next to him, she also blushed, with her hands protecting her back, and her expression was hard to describe. (End of this chapter)
