Why stop here instead of continuing to fly?
Is it necessary to conserve Heart Power? Or is flying not possible here?
Soon, Gu Ran stopped over a pit with tiny roots, thinner than ginseng fibers and shorter than the tip of a pen.
Gu Ran set down Zhuang Jing, kneeling on one knee.
Zhuang Jing looked around, speculating.
Is this the last living root of the World Tree?
"Out of consideration for our kinship, give me some face," Gu Ran spoke.
Kinship?
"Your mission is to destroy this world, but with your remaining strength, you can only drag it along like a stone neither light nor heavy, unable to drown anyone.
"And as long as there are people alive, people dreaming, you can't completely Devour it.
"If you can't complete the task anyway, why not give the World Tree to me?"
The root flicked like a finger, creating another pit on the ground, and a small stone hit Gu Ran on the forehead.
The message was clear: Scram.
Zhuang Jing was astonished.
What is this?
