We headed back to where the tree was. But before doing that, I spied the three cultivators near the formation, and judging by what I saw and heard, they made a discovery, yet it was not something that would lead them out of the garden.
But that was a good thing! They were entirely focused on that, and that would make it easier for us to give the fairy the golden potato.
"So how do we do this, Mo Huan? Just place it in front of the tree or what?" I asked.
"Yes, that's it. You are smart, Patriarch Li."
Smart? That was just obvious… But I liked his respect; maybe he was doing that purposefully to get my good side. Anyway, with the golden potato in my hands, I placed it in front of the tree with the carved symbol and waited.
"Keep watching it," I said.
