Ch354 - Blood-Sucking Willow

Edited by Zaki

Arriving in a strange ancient jungle, Liu Mufeng and his party of twelve landed on the ground smoothly.

Closing his eyes, Jiang Xu took a deep breath, feeling that the aura here was several times stronger than that in the sect. This made him feel very comfortable all over. His whole person felt very good.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Feng Yonglin couldn’t help curling the corners of his mouth. “Thank you, Junior Brother Liu and Junior Brother Jiang. We bid you farewell.”

“Okay.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng watched Feng Yonglin, Zi Dingxiang and Xiao Yun leave,and thought:This Xiao Yun should have asked Feng Yonglin to protect him. With the three of them together, Xiao Yun would be safer.

“Thank you two Junior Brothers, we are also leaving.” After saying that, Huang Jie, Huang Yiyi and Shi Li cupped their hands towards Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu.

“Okay, Senior Brothers and Sister, take care.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng watched the three of them leave.

The others had left. At this moment, only Liu Mufeng’s family of three, Bai Yunfei, Feng Pianpian and Feng Nie were left standing in place. There were six people in total. When they came, Xuanyuan Chen specifically asked Jiang Xu and Liu Mufeng to help protect Feng Pianpian and Feng Nie. Therefore, the six of them would not separate and would explore the ruins together.

“Mufeng, where are we going?” Standing in the jungle and looking around, Jiang Xu asked uncertainly.

Liu Mufeng looked at Feng Pianpian at the side. “Pianpian, which side do you think we should go?” The fourth heroine’s divination was very accurate, so Liu Mufeng asked directly.

“Oh, let me do the calculations.” After speaking, Feng Pianpian took out her own divination tools and did a direct calculation.

“How is it, Pianpian?” Looking at Feng Pianpian who was frowning, Jiang Xu asked curiously.

“The hexagram says that the opportunities are in the East and the West. There are more opportunities in the East, but they are very dangerous. There are fewer opportunities in the West, but they are relatively safe.” Speaking of this, Feng Pianpian spread her hands helplessly.

Liu Mufeng nodded. “Then the six of us can vote, and those who want to go West raise their hands.” Liu Mufeng asked others.

Feng Pianpian was the first to raise her hand. But none of the others did.

Liu Mufeng waited for a while, and seeing that no one else raised his hand, he showed a helpless smile towards Feng Pianpian. “Pianpian, everyone wants to go East.”

“En, I know some.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng said that he knew some characters of the Stone Clan.

“Junior Brother Liu is really knowledgeable and talented.” Bai Yunfei said with a smile.

“Senior Brother Bai is overpraising, I just read some miscellaneous books.” Smiling, Liu Mufeng said modestly.

“Mufeng, I heard that when you went to the secret realm of the Tianyan Clan, you performed some kind of a ritual? Will we do a ritual in the Stone Clan as well?” Feng Pianpian asked Liu Mufeng with a smile.

Liu Mufeng smiled wryly. “There is no such need for the Stone Clan. The rituals of the Tianyan Clan could bless one’s luck. For the Stone Clan, even if there are rituals, there is no such benefit.”

“That’s it.” Nodding, Feng Pianpian was a little disappointed.

“I have read some records of the Stone Clan. According to ancient books, most of the cultivators of the Stone Clan are Medicine Masters. They like to arrange medicinal pools, raise medicinal insects, and also like to raise some poisonous plants. Therefore, everyone should be extra careful, don’t rashly touch any medicinal pool or plants.” Looking at the crowd, Liu Mufeng kindly reminded everyone.

“Oh, we understand.” Nodding, everyone expressed their understanding.

Three days later,

After walking in the jungle for three days, Liu Mufeng and his party came across a Blood-Sucking Willow tree that was more than 20 meters tall. The vitality of this willow tree was very strong, and every leaf on the tree was red. Obviously, it should have just had a full meal not long ago.

Seeing the food delivered to the door, the big willow tree immediately stretched out its branches. The branches grew crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, they grew more than ten meters, as if they were steel whips, and attacked Liu Mufeng and his group of six people.

Transforming into his Phoenix beast form, Feng Nie spat out a mouthful of flames at the big willow tree.

Raising their hands, Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu, and Liu Xuan also released their own Beast Fires to attack the big willow tree.

The flames touched the branches of the willow tree and they immediately shrank back. The willow tree also directly disappeared in place.

“What’s going on? How did it disappear?” Seeing that the willow tree was gone, Jiang Xu was shocked.

“This is not an ordinary Blood-Sucking Willow tree. It probably has already gained sentience and has its own wisdom. Be careful, everyone.” Speaking of this, Liu Mufeng narrowed his eyes.

“Ah, ahhhh…”

As soon as Liu Mufeng finished speaking, Feng Pianpian’s miserable screams were heard. Everyone turned their heads and saw that the Blood-Sucking Willow had already circled behind and captured Feng Pianpian.

“Sister!” Seeing Feng Pianpian being swept away by the treetops of the willow, Feng Nie exclaimed, and spat out another big gulp of fire at the Blood-Sucking Willow.

“Pianpian!” Seeing that Pianpian was captured, Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng and Liu Xuan’s Beast Fire immediately flew over to attack the willow tree.

The Blood-Sucking Willow was besieged by three Beast Fires, and was entangled by Feng Nie. The branches retracted again and Feng Pianpian was thrown down.

“Pianpian!” Leaping forward, Jiang Xu immediately flew to catch Feng Pianpian who was thrown down.

Taking out ten Flame Beads and ten Lightning Beads, Liu Mu Feng smashed directly towards the Bloodsucking Willow.

“Boom, boom.” A purple lightning cracked and cut on top of the willow tree’s body, splitting it into two halves, and with that the Flame Beads immediately burst into flames. The three Beast Fires also cooperated with the Flame Beads’ flames to ignite the willow tree together.

With a cry of anguish, the Blood-Sucking Willow tree was burned to ashes in front of everyone. The Wisteria Vine flew out of Liu Mufeng’s wrist excitedly and swallowed the Blood-Sucking Willow tree’s bead in one gulp. With a happy burp, it flew back to Liu Mufeng’s wrist.

Taking back the Beast Fire, Liu Mufeng looked at Feng Pianpian, who was frightened and pale. “Why didn’t you make a move? Your bloodline is higher than Feng Nie’s. Your flame is purer than his. Why didn’t you make a move?”

“I, I…” When asked this, Feng Pianpian bit her lips unconsciously.

“Senior Brother Liu, Pianpian is not suited for fighting.” Feng Nie, who had turned into his human form, helped his Sister explain in embarrassment.

“No, it’s not that she’s not suitable for fighting, but you guys are protecting her too well. Have you ever thought, Feng Nei, if the ten of us were separated when we were transported over. Then, what would happen to her now?” Liu Mufeng asked coldly.

“This, this…” Hearing this, Feng Nie was also speechless.

“Pianpian, this is not the Phoenix Clan, nor the sect. There are not so many people who can protect you. This is a relic, a ruin full of danger. If you don’t know how to protect yourself, then no one can protect you, and no one can guarantee that you can live in these ruins for a hundred years.” Liu Mufeng said coldly.

Seeing Liu Mufeng’s serious face, Feng Pianpian frowned. “Yes, I’m sorry Mufeng, I, I’m not used to fighting.”

“It’s not a matter of getting used to it, it’s an instinct. When a person encounters danger, he should instinctively attack. You don’t even have the most basic instinct. Pianpian, if you continue like this, I promise you, you won’t live a hundred years. We can only bury your bones here.” Liu Mufeng said bluntly.

“Mufeng, you, don’t be so serious. It is possible that Pianpian is not used to fighting, right?” Jiang Xu persuaded Liu Mufeng helplessly.

“She doesn’t care about her own life. How can we protect her like this? If I knew this was the case, I shouldn’t have agreed to the Sect Master and brought her out.” Liu Mufeng was quite upset.

Jiang Xu looked at Feng Pianpian helplessly. “Pianpian, Mufeng’s words may be a bit harsh. However, he is also doing it for your own good. You have to understand that this is a dangerous Ruins, not in the sect. The strength of the few of us is very limited, and the highest is only in the Spiritual Profound Realm. We are not like the Master who is in the Spiritual Sacred Realm. So if you always behave like this and don’t attack to defend yourself, we don’t know if we can protect you.”

“En, I understand, I know Mufeng is doing it for my own good, I will try my best, try my best.” Nodding, Feng Pianpian said so.

“Sister, this place is very dangerous. Although all of us will protect you, you have to earn some courage yourself. You are not young anymore, you should learn to fight. As Senior Brother Liu said, you are like this, you do not even know how to fight back. It’s really too dangerous!” Feng Nie also advised earnestly.

“En, I understand, Third Brother.” Nodding, Feng Pianpian said yes.

“We’re going to stay here for a hundred years. Pianpian has still not settled since she just came here, but she will get used to it in the future. Mufeng, don’t be hasty.” Bai Yunfei said helplessly. In fact, he also felt that Feng Pianpian’s behavior was depressing, but anyway, Feng Pianpian was his Mistress after all, so he didn’t dare to say anything serious.

Liu Mufeng pursed his lips. “Let’s go.”

“En.” Nodding, everyone continued to move forward.

Looking at the devastated Feng Pianpian, Jiang Xu sighed softly, and turned to look at his man. “Mufeng, you spoke too seriously.”

Hearing his lover’s voice transmission, Liu Mufeng rolled his eyes helplessly. “That’s not my own intention, it’s what the Sect Master wants. The Sect Master hopes that Pianpian can practice well and learn how to protect herself.”

“So it’s like this.” Jiang Xu nodded, expressing his understanding.
