Chapter 230: War
The plum blossom tree was enraged. It knew that the person before him was its food, yet its food was so detestable and didn’t allow the tree to eat it.
The angry plum blossom tree brandished its own vines and launched a rapid attack towards Qin Yi with a strong murderous intent. Qin Yi turned around and dodged it again.
She was in even more trouble this time. The plum blossom tree’s numerous vines pounced towards Qin Yi. It wanted to grab this person and chew her into pieces.
Qin Yi quickly dodged the vines. She lifted her hand and formed an ice needle, then shot it towards the plum blossom tree. However, her ability was only in the third grade while this plum blossom tree was already in the fourth grade.
Don’t belittle the difference of one grade; mutated plants and animals of the same grade could easily crush an ability user of the same grade. All she could do now was to find the weakness of this plum blossom tree.
The plum blossom tree was overjoyed. It realized that this person wasn’t its match, and its actions became even more berserk.
Qin Yi observed the actions of the tree coldly and formed numerous ice arrows at the same time to disrupt the movements of the tree.
This chap was huge, but it wasn’t nimble. Even so, Qin Yi was drenched in sweat in just a while.
There was a limit to her physical strength, after all. However, it was as if this chap wouldn’t grow weary. It kept growing new vines after being chopped off by Qin Yi.
In her previous life, Qin Yi had encountered mutated plants as well and even ones that were of higher grades than this. However, as long as she cut their vines or roots off, these mutated plants would be weakened.
But this one before her was completely different from the others. Qin Yi even used a huge knife to sever its roots, but it grew back very quickly and wasn’t tired at all. Instead, Qin Yi had stirred up its desire to fight.
Qin Yi was careless, and the long vines of the plum blossom tree managed to whip her shoulder. Qin Yi was in pain. The scent of her sweet-smelling blood spread and it caused the tree to become more excited and eager.
‘Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is going to be delicious.’
Qin Yi held her shoulder, fresh blood seeped through her fingers and her gaze was calm. Seeing the excited plum blossom tree, Qin Yi sneered. “Want to eat me? Not so easy.”
Qin Yi formed two ice blades and stabbed into the plum blossom tree’s body. Jade green liquid flowed out and stained Qin Yi’s hands. The tree was in pain and although it could regenerate and wouldn’t die, it could feel the pain.
The plum blossom tree burst out in rage. It was about to swallow the food right before it when it realized that the person had disappeared. Even the sweet-smelling scent was gone, it was as if this person hadn’t appeared at all.
The plum blossom tree let out a piercing shriek and used its vines to hit the metal fences angrily.
In the old forest behind the mountains, Yun Huan was hugging Xiao Lan, who was asleep, and the cold winds blew yet he didn’t feel cold at all.
Lin Bai brought a pot of hot water over. “Boss have some warm water. The night is really cold.”
Yun Huan didn’t take it and merely stroked the Xiao Lan in his arms continuously.
Lin Bai pursed his lips and a hint of worry appeared between his brows. He knew that Boss was worried about Qin Yi. So were they. But they couldn’t do anything at that moment and could only rush over quickly and hope that Xiao Lan was leading them the right way.
Lin Bai wanted to persuade Yun Huan when the pot of water in his hand was s.n.a.t.c.hed away. It was Chen Che.
Chen Che grinned as he drank a mouthful of warm water and the heat warmed his cold stomach. He sat next to Yun Huan and poked Xiao Lan’s head. “Ay, Ah-Huan, you’re really boring. You’ve been putting on that sour face for two days. You must have faith in that little guy – he is very crafty. Nothing bad will happen.”
