Chapter 321
Yu Xi did not approach the banshee immediately.
She didn't know whether the other party was an enemy or a friend.
But the closer she got to the banshee, the weaker the connection between them became. When she saw the banshee's appearance clearly, the hazy demonic aura in her vision disappeared completely.
This is a tree demon.
Although she looks similar to a human, the ears that appear between her emerald green hair are actually branches that fork upwards, and you can vaguely see a few wild fruits hanging on both sides of the branches.
Where her feet should have been was a mass of something resembling plant roots, like the dense, broken strands of a ginseng root, which was now slightly curled up.
Gu An's gaze lingered on her "feet" for a moment, and he estimated in his mind that it seemed to be about the same size as the marks he had seen on the moss before.
At this time, the tree demon's cry could be heard from afar.
"Hello?"
Yu Xi stood about a few meters away from the tree demon and greeted it tentatively.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she spoke, the crying tree demon seemed to tremble, then slowly raised its head.
The emerald green eyes between the slightly dark skin were filled with tears.
When she saw Yu Xi and his group, she raised her head high, and her eyes gradually changed from being confused at the beginning to being sharp.
"Monk!"
She screamed and stood up suddenly.
When she was squatting on the ground, she looked like a little girl about the same age as Yu Xi, but when she stood up, her body grew rapidly under the rich demonic energy. Leaves crowded out from between her skin, covering her human form. She grew to more than two meters tall, and looked like a small tree from a distance.
Before Xi could speak, her hateful scream rang out again. At the same time, a violent demonic aura spread out from her. All the greenery began to rot and wither, and a foul smell filled the air. The waterfall that originally shone with golden waves in the sunlight turned into dirty muddy water in the blink of an eye.
The sun was gone from the sky, replaced by a dim and dark red sky, like the afterglow of doomsday.
But in just a blink of an eye, the paradise-like Peach Blossom Spring turned into a filthy and corrupt world.
"Wait, we're not monks!"
Yu Xi realized that the other party had misunderstood them and spoke quickly.
But the moment she breathed in, a foul and pungent smell rushed out of her nostrils, almost making her tears fall.
She quickly held her breath, but the other party didn't listen to them at all.
After quickly transforming, it screamed again, and the rustling of wind could be heard among the branches and leaves, and the evil spirit spread around again.
At the same time, the tree demon disappeared from Yu Xi's sight, and the wide vision disappeared. Plants thicker than the ancient giant vines began to grow wildly around them. These plants had surrounded them and were still approaching.
Just as she was about to step forward, Su Xianyun suddenly reached out and covered her mouth and nose.
When she looked up, she saw Su Xianyun with his eyes lowered in worry. A pill appeared in his palm and he gently put it into her mouth.
The pill melted in her mouth, removing the bitterness specifically for her, while a light and pleasant scent like tea filled her mouth and nose.
"The miasma is poisonous." Su Xianyun said softly, "Medicine can detoxify it."
Yu Xi nodded. During this time, Zhong Xian had already flown to the place where the tree demon was before, but he missed. He flew high and found that they seemed to be forced into a maze-like place. The plants blocked the passable path. At a glance, he could only see countless mountain-like plants surrounding them in circles.
Raise the sword and cut off the plants closest to them, and the plants behind them will immediately surge up like a tide.
Are you trying to crush them with plants?
Zhong Xian found it a little funny. Although he didn't understand how the environment could change in an instant when there was clearly no formation, he didn't have the patience to delay here.
Xiao Xier is now surrounded. He doesn't care what happens here, nor does he care whether the tree demon is an enemy or a friend. He is ready to destroy this place.
Ji Zhi, Su Xianyun and Gu An also surrounded Yu Xi, protecting her firmly behind them, ready to cooperate with Zhong Xian.
Who would have thought that at this moment Yu Xi was holding her hands to her mouth and shouting at him:
"Brother! Come back first!"
Zhong Xian raised his eyebrows, and the anger that had just gathered dissipated all at once, and he came back obediently.
"Xiao Xier?" he asked with a smile.
Yu Xi pointed in a certain direction and said, "There, I can feel her... the tree demon is there."
When the tree demon was far away from her, the hazy demonic aura appeared in front of her eyes again.
Zhong Xian looked up and saw a large group of plants coming in the direction Yu Xi was pointing.
Without saying a word, he raised his hand and gathered demonic energy, creating a hole in the surging plants in front of him.
Yu Xi immediately led them forward.
But unexpectedly, after advancing about a few hundred meters, except for her and Gu An, Zhong Xian and others were blocked inside by an invisible barrier.
Ji Zhi saw that he could not catch up with his sister suddenly, so he ran into her headfirst and was directly bounced several meters away by the barrier, rolling several times on the ground.
Yu Xi turned around and tried to pull Zhong Xian's hand, but found that no matter what she did, Zhong Xian could not pass through. Only she and Gu An could pass through the barrier unimpeded.
Su Xianyun raised his hand worriedly and covered the barrier. After realizing that he couldn't get through, he only told Yu Xi:
"Don't worry about us, just be careful."
As he spoke, he took half a step back. Magic light danced behind him, and dense magic lines entangled him, cutting all the plants that tried to eat them into pieces.
Zhong Xian saw that he couldn't get out, so he said indifferently: "Xiao Xi'er, you and Gu An go first. These plants can't hurt us."
The barrier in front of me is filled with demonic power, and it should be a barrier that only allows demons to pass through.
But Xiao Xier is a half-demon, and I didn’t expect that she could pass it.
Yu Xi did not dare to delay. She nodded quickly and could only find the tree demon and try to rescue Zhong Xian and the others as soon as possible.
She and Gu An didn't say much and rushed out quickly, leaving behind only two afterimages, one black and one white.
After Yu Xi left his sight, Su Xianyun summoned a puppet to make a recliner for him, complete with a pillow, and lay down lazily.
Without his sister around, he had no desire to perform and was too lazy to move.
The puppet dutifully helped him collect the surrounding plants.
Jizhi lay beside the barrier and sobbed, worried about his sister. Cleverly, he wanted to dig a tunnel under the barrier and worked hard to dig the hole.
Only Zhong Xian was concentrating on dealing with the plants that were swarming around him. He accidentally turned around and saw this scene. He laughed out of anger and kicked Su Xianyun and the chair away.
No matter how at odds with Zhong Xian and Su Xianyun were, Yu Xi now held the floating light in his hand, and rode on the transformed and enlarged floating light with Gu An, destroying the plants that blocked the way along the way, and arrived in front of the tree monster more smoothly than expected.
