Chapter 210: Returning to Qing Liu City 1
In Qing Liu City, on the avenue covered in tree roots, Sang Chu, Sang Jing Wen, Lu Min Feng, and Xiao Yi Fei all fell onto their bottoms. Xiao Yi Fei clutched his backside, his head still a bit dizzy, “Why is it that every time we get out of the vehicle, we’re so disheveled!”
Sang Chu scratched his head and quickly changed the subject, “Everyone get ready, something’s coming!”
Seeing the Sang Chu quartet suddenly appear, the mutated plants in Qing Liu City became exceptionally frenzied. They could smell the strong aura emanating from Sang Chu and the others. Although their Supernatural Ability Level wasn’t high, they were incredibly sweet and delicious.
‘Boom—’
A thick branch lunged forward. Sang Chu and the other three quickly rolled to dodge. Xiao Yi Fei, clutching his aching backside, stood up, “You old bastard, is this mutated plant sick? Sister, don’t make a move yet, let me test my Cultivation results!”
Sang Chu’s hand holding the Card paused, and he nodded, “Okay, Min Feng, go pick up your mother and the others. It’s best not to expose the Hovercar, let’s use a Carriage.”
“Okay, I know. You guys be careful.”
Lu Min Feng understood why Sang Chu didn’t want to use the Hovercar; it was because if it broke, it couldn’t be repaired. But a Carriage was different. They had brought back many Magic Beasts, which could be used for mating and reproduction. Furthermore, the builders had also brought them back. Carriages could be popularized in the Apocalypse in the future.
“Come again!”
Not long after Lu Min Feng walked out, he heard Xiao Yi Fei’s excited shout. He looked back and saw that he and the Fire Dragon had merged into one. A pair of Fire Dragon wings grew from his body, and he flew in mid-air, engulfed in raging flames.
The mutated plant retreated while fighting, extremely wary of Xiao Yi Fei’s Supernatural Ability.
This made Lu Min Feng laugh, “It seems that after fusing with a Magic Beast, the Supernatural Ability can injure the mutated plant. Now, they can’t be so arrogant anymore.”
The reason the mutated plants dared to raise Supernatural Ability Users on a large scale was because the Supernatural Abilities of the users couldn’t harm them. However, after fusing with a Magic Beast, this condition was broken.
Indeed, there’s always something that can overcome another!
Lu Min Feng smiled with satisfaction and walked towards the Underground Air-raid Shelter.
‘Roar—’
Sang Jing Wen heard the roar of Zombies and quickly went to Sang Chu’s side, “Was this summoned by the mutated plant?”
“It should be. Brother, let’s be on alert. I don’t have any Medicine on hand right now, so I’m afraid I can’t save that many people.”
Sang Jing Wen said coldly, “Then kill them.”
Sang Chu was stunned for a moment, then smiled, “Okay.”
After speaking, she took out her Cards, and Xue You, Xi Rui, Shi Feng, Sai Yue, and Qing Xiao appeared instantly.
Seeing Xiao Yi Fei entangled with a large tree, Xue You disdainfully said, too lazy to even look, “So weak, and it’s taking so long to fight?”
Xi Rui, as part of the Elf Tribe, had an unusual sensitivity to plants. Holding her bow and arrow, she stood vigilantly in front of Sang Chu, “A Chu, this thing is not right. It’s not a plant.”
Only then did Xue You look properly, “It really doesn’t seem like it. Sang Chu, why is your World so strange?”
Sai Yue looked at the red moon in the sky and said, “This is the red moon that only appears when Hell manifests. Could this be Hell?”
Sang Chu: “This isn’t Hell. It’s just a Small World, like the Magic World. It’ll be fine once we get back to our Base. By the way, Xi Rui, you said this isn’t a plant, did you see something?”
Xi Rui: “It doesn’t have the aura of a plant. It’s more like a strange species.”
Sang Chu inexplicably thought of the Neighbor at the Base, the one whose body was covered in human tree roots. Combining this with what Sang Jing Wen and the others had seen before, Sang Chu became even more certain that this mutated plant was likely another special kind of Supernatural Ability User.
‘Roar—’
The Little Zombie King Lin Yu led a group of Zombies over. At this moment, Lin Mu Xue seemed to have smelled his scent and flew directly out of the Hovercar.
Her eyes were vacant and chillingly cold as she stared at Lin Yu, “I know you.”
Lin Yu’s forward steps halted. He had never seen such a dense Killing Intent on a person, as if he would be torn to shreds if he took another step closer.
He felt a desire to retreat. Lin Yu gestured for the Zombies to attack Sang Chu and the others, while he himself continuously retreated.
Unexpectedly, Mu Xue shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, ‘whoosh—’. She was so fast that Sang Chu didn’t even have time to stop her.
Xue You pulled Sang Chu back, “Just let her vent.”
“What’s going on with her? Why is she like this?”
Xue You stared at Mu Xue’s retreating back, watching her ruthlessly force the High-level Corpse Spirit to retreat. He frowned slightly, “It’s a Demon Spirit. She’s awakened a Demon Spirit. If you don’t let her vent her anger, the consequences will be severe.”
“Demon Spirit?”
Tu You, perched on Sang Chu’s shoulder, explained speechlessly, “It’s an Inner Demon. Cultivators are most wary of Inner Demons. Mu Xue seems to be controlled by an Inner Demon. After she vents, I’ll go buy you a Demon Subduing Array. Once she’s finished venting her anger, you can trap her with the Demon Subduing Array and let her sleep.”
“That simple?”
“How complicated can it be? Just wait.”
After speaking, Tu You disappeared. Xue You didn’t say much after hearing his words. He knew that each World was different, and their understanding was also different. The Demon Spirit, or what Tu You called an Inner Demon, was easily resolved in Tu You’s words. But on the Magic Continent, there was only one outcome: entering the deepest part of Hell.
Lin Yu was gradually falling behind. He saw Sang Chu in the distance and shouted for help, “Sang Chu, save me! I know where that thing is, I’ll take you to find him!”
“If I die, you definitely won’t find him!!!”
Seeing Sang Chu remain unmoved, Lin Yu kept shouting. Mu Xue heard Sang Chu’s name, and a flicker of clarity flashed in her eyes. Seeing this, Lin Yu quickly ran towards Sang Chu.
When Mu Xue turned her head, she happened to see Sang Jing Wen and Sang Chu looking at her. She instantly lowered her head in fear, looking at her hands, and squatted on the ground like a lost little beast.
Sang Chu: “Xue You, take care of these Corpse Spirits.”
“Okay.”
Sang Chu glanced at Sang Jing Wen. Seeing him nod, the two walked towards Mu Xue.
“Don’t, don’t come over, don’t look at me.”
Mu Xue refused Sang Chu and the other’s approach with a trembling voice, but they didn’t listen. Sang Jing Wen softened his voice as much as possible, “Xiao Xue, Brother is here to take you home.”
“Yes, and me too. Grandmother is waiting for us at home, we should go back.”
Mu Xue: “I, I killed someone.”
Sang Jing Wen and Sang Chu’s footsteps faltered, and they saw shock in each other’s eyes. Sang Chu: “They deserved to die. Xiao Xue, you did it to save me, so you did nothing wrong. They are the ones who are wrong.”
“Yes, they deserved to die. They shouldn’t have bullied my sister. Xiao Xue, Brother is here, come home with Brother.”
Sang Jing Wen reached out his hand towards Mu Xue, but she remained squatting on the ground, her voice trembling, “But I, I killed someone.”
Sang Chu: “Xiao Xue, it’s the Apocalypse. Killing is for self-preservation. I’ve also killed people, I’ve killed many people. Are you afraid of me?”
Mu Xue shook her head, “No.”
“Then I’m not afraid of you either. Let’s go home.”
