#889 - Chapter 889: The Ant Army

The next morning, Lin Yaoyao got up early and arrived at Peach Mountain. The other Xiaoyao Peak disciples also got up quite sensibly.

After all, if they didn't get up, Senior Sister would come over and spank them.

The repetitive labor continued: digging holes, planting trees, filling soil, watering.

Xiaobai, Ji Changsheng, Chen Haoran, and Wang Xuan were responsible for digging holes. Lin Yaoyao, Xiaoqing, Ye Qingjun, and Ye Hongxue were responsible for planting trees and filling soil. Ye Xiaoyao and Ye Wuxin were responsible for watering.

It could be considered a one-stop service. Taking advantage of the dewy morning, everyone was full of energy.

Time passed quickly without realizing it. By evening, they had finally planted a little more than half.

Lin Yaoyao took out several pills. "This is the Gu Ling Pill. It is effective for restoring spiritual power. Each of you take one. We will continue planting tonight."

The Gu Ling Pills were bought by Lin Yaoyao from the market at a great price. Originally, she wanted to keep them for her own use, but in order to cheer up her junior brothers and sisters, she had to show something.

At this moment, Ye Kong, still lying under the willow tree by the Sea of Bitterness, slightly opened his eyes, the corners of his lips curled up, and then he continued to sleep.

After the disciples took the Gu Ling Pills, their spiritual power was quickly replenished, and the fatigue accumulated throughout the day instantly disappeared.

"Let's strive to finish planting all the trees tonight, complete the reconstruction of Xiaoyao Peak in advance, and set an example for the sect!"

Lin Yaoyao's inspiring voice echoed throughout Xiaoyao Peak. Xiao Lan, Xiao Ling, and Erha, who were sleeping, unconsciously drooped their ears when they heard this.

The little black ant was dozing in the cave, hugging the queen ant. Suddenly, it shivered, the antennae on its head moved, and it flew away from the spot.

"Me, and me," the little black ant came to the back mountain, spiritual power surged, and its body instantly became dozens of times larger.

In the dim light, it looked like a black-armored warrior flashing dark luster. The big black ant was indeed a master at digging holes. The two forefeet were covered with long barbs, and the speed of digging holes was more than twice as fast as Xiaobai and the others.

Then, Erha impatiently barked "Woof woof", its front feet jumped up, seemingly about to launch an attack.

"Er Gouzi, what are you going crazy about again?" Xiaobai roared.

It wasn't until Xiaobai saw a long, black line moving under his feet that he screamed "Aiya ~" in fright and threw away the shovel.

In the dim light, this black thing that kept moving forward was indeed a bit scary.

Only to see the little black ant jump over, raise a forefoot, and signal everyone not to panic.

As expected of an ant that had been enlightened, it already had the ability to communicate with people.

Only then did everyone see clearly that this long, moving black line was the little black ant's ant army, numbering no less than tens of thousands.

The little black ant waved its foot down, and the ant army dispersed, crawling to each pit to be dug. The pits were instantly covered in black, slowly collapsing, and the surrounding soil was constantly piling up.

In less than two hours, all the tree pits had been dug.

"Great, little black ant, I'll give you a big credit," Lin Yaoyao excitedly patted the little black ant's head to show her gratitude.

The little black ant stood on the highest point of the soil pile, proudly raised its head, and stretched out its antennae, almost ready to speak.

Lin Yaoyao and Xiaobai quickly planted the trees, filled the pits, and then Ye Xiaoyao and others watered them.

With everyone's cooperation, the peach trees on Peach Mountain were finally planted by midnight.

At this time, the dark moon hung high, and a cool breeze blew in the air. Peach Mountain was silent.

"Okay, thank you all for your hard work today, junior brothers and sisters," Lin Yaoyao said, looking at the little black ant, "Of course, there are also the little black ant and its ant army."

"Oye!" Xiaobai suppressed the fatigue in his body and made an excited gesture.

"Okay, go back and rest. Master will definitely be surprised tomorrow," Lin Yaoyao said, raising the corners of her mouth, waving her hand, and signaling everyone to go back to sleep.

Soon, the ant army retreated, and the little black ant also hopped back to its ant palace, hugged the queen ant, and continued to dream.

Xiaobai kicked Erha awake, "Er Gouzi, take me back!"

Erha reluctantly stood up, shook off the soil and water on his body, and carried his little master, who could no longer open his eyes, back to the room.

That night, on Xiaoyao Peak, snores rose and fell, coming from different rooms, seemingly hiding a kind of regularity, but no one went to explore it.

The next day, when the sun was high in the sky, everyone was still asleep, when suddenly several angry shouts broke the silence of the morning.

"Where are the people from Xiaoyao Peak? You are really lazy, and you don't come out to work!"

The leader was Chen Changqing from Tianjian Peak, and he was leading a group of disciples outside Xiaoyao Peak, shouting.

Among these disciples, there were people from Tianjian Peak, Yushou Peak, and Wudao Peak. Everyone's faces were tanned, especially the people from Wudao Peak, because they did more work and ate less, and they were basically a size smaller.

Chen Changqing's change was also great. He lost his previous suave and elegant demeanor, but instead had bandages on his feet, his body was dirty, and he carried a carrying pole in one hand.

"Disciples of Xiaoyao Peak, you good-for-nothings, come out and work!"

"If the Peak Master is a good-for-nothing, what good kind of disciples can he teach!"

The clamoring voices outside the peak woke up Lin Yaoyao and the others. She rubbed her still drowsy head, and a burst of anger arose in her heart.

These ants, if this emperor doesn't go out and teach them a lesson, they really think they can turn the world upside down.

At the same time, more and more disciples gathered outside Xiaoyao Peak, and there were more voices accusing and scolding the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak.

Ye Kong got up, walked to the Sea of Bitterness, and ignored everything. He continued to take out his small fishing rod to fish.

But his disciples couldn't bear it. Lin Yaoyao, Xiaobai, Xiaoqing, and the others, although they hadn't woken up, were already angry in their hearts, and they walked to the entrance in a hurry.

At this time, hundreds of disciples had gathered outside Xiaoyao Peak. Because of the reconstruction of the sect these days, they had been constantly conscripted to work, as tired as dogs.

At this time, Chen Changqing instigated the disciples to make trouble at Xiaoyao Peak, and they instantly seemed to have found an outlet for venting their anger, and rushed over angrily.

"What are you shouting about?" Xiaoqing took the lead and retorted first.

"All the disciples of the Xinghe Sect must participate in the reconstruction of the Xinghe Sect. Why don't we see the figures of your Xiaoyao Peak?"

Chen Changqing did not give in, standing straight in the crowd of hundreds of people, adding spiritual power to his words, wishing that everyone in the Xinghe Sect could hear him.

"The peak is being rebuilt. After it is completed, it will naturally help the sect," Xiaoqing replied succinctly.

Haha ~

Someone in the crowd took the lead, and a burst of laughter broke out.
