Chapter 1348: Chapter 1348: Forest of Death
They have co here after enduring countless hardships, just for the Life Divine Water, which Qin Sisi must rely on to save her life.
They have only focused on the owner of the Life Divine Water and have never thought that competitors would appear.
Zi Yu is the biological son of the Dark Witch. Even though unpleasantness occurred previously, it cannot change the familial ties that run deep.
If the Dark Witch were to choose, she would undoubtedly give the Life Divine Water to her son rather than to Ye You and Qin Sisi, who burned her body and caused her magical power to suffer losses.
Qin Sisi and Ye You both feel sowhat chaotic at the mont, facing sudden changes without any available counterasures.
Having heard the Bearded Elder’s words, Zi Yu hesitates for a mont, then grits his teeth and says, "Fine, I’ll go to her. As long as she’s willing to give
the Life Divine Water, I can agree to any of her conditions."
A resolute expression appears on his face as he turns and walks towards the Giant Wood Castle.
"Hold on." Ye You suddenly steps in to stop him.
Zi Yu stops and turns to look at Ye You, asking, "Sage Ruler Ye You, may I ask what the matter is?"
Looking inquisitively at Ye You, Ye You falls silent, marking the most awkward mont of his life.
What he wants to say is "The Life Divine Water is mine, don’t go," but considering Zi Yu’s gentle and kind nature and his reason for wanting the Life Divine Water—to save his wife—those words remain unsaid.
Zi Yu looks at Ye You in silence, growing increasingly puzzled.
Qin Sisi glances at Ye You and explains to Zi Yu, "We think that the Dark Witch holds a deep resentnt against Ling Wu, and if you just go begging her for dicine, she might not give it to you."
She is helping Ye You smooth things over, but she is also being truthful. The Dark Witch’s extraordinary maternal love makes her resentful of Ling Wu, so she might refuse to lend a helping hand.
Zi Yu, already hesitant, becos even more uncertain upon hearing Qin Sisi’s words.
Ling Wu ended up like this because she was hard by the Dark Witch, so how could she be willing to use her treasured Life Divine Water to save Ling Wu?
The Bearded Elder gives Qin Sisi a aningful glance and encourages Zi Yu, "If you don’t try, how will you know if you can succeed?"
The Bearded Elder’s words reawaken Zi Yu’s determination; no matter how difficult or impossible, as long as there’s a glimr of hope, he cannot give up because of Ling Wu.
Just as Zi Yu is about to head back to request the Life Divine Water from the Dark Witch, an urgent shout cos from afar: "King, the expansion speed of the Forest of Death has suddenly accelerated, quickly go and see!"
The people turn in the direction of the voice and see another green figure appearing above the dense forest, stepping on a cloud ford from Wood Attribute Magic and flying rapidly towards them.
Ling Song crisply points to the approaching figure and says, "Look, it’s Uncle Jin Bo."
The Plant Elf known as Jin Bo lands, and the three youths surround him, asking eagerly, "Uncle Jin Bo, what happened? Wasn’t the Forest of Death already controlled by Bearded Grandpa? Why has the expansion suddenly accelerated?"
Jin Bo appears to be in his thirties, yet Qin Sisi knows his actual age is certainly much older. The eight-shaped mustache above his mouth lends him a very solemn expression.
In a strained tone, he explains, "Actually, the Forest of Death has been expanding all along. But under the King’s control, the pace has been slow these years. I just received news that, for unknown reasons, it has suddenly accelerated."
Then, he turns to the Bearded Elder and says, "King, everyone is very anxious, please go and take a look!"
"King?" Qin Sisi whispers, puzzled, exchanging a glance with Ye You and considering the Bearded Elder’s identity—it turns out he is the leader of the Plant Elves.
The Bearded Elf King furrows his brows and says solemnly, "Let’s go and take a look."
"Yes." Jin Bo’s spirit revives, responding loudly.
The Elf King’s long beard floats as the green cloud beneath his feet carries him forward.
Jin Bo follows suit using the sa thod.
The three youths briefly converse, their curiosity about the Forest of Death mixed with their sense of responsibility to protect the Dark Forest, and they decide to follow along to see for themselves.
Zi Yu hesitates for a mont, glancing up at the silent sycamore tree, and follows along.
Ling Wu is part of the Elf Clan, and now that a major event has occurred in her family, he should lend a hand. The sycamore’s flowers still have one bloom left, which can sustain for a longer ti.
"Let’s go and see." Ye You says softly.
"Mm." Qin Sisi nods.
Thus, the group heads to the legendary Forest of Death, so leading the way, others following.
On the way, Qin Sisi intentionally converses with the three lively youths, who are filled with curiosity about the talking White Cat, and they begin to chat with her.
Qin Sisi learns that the na of this race is indeed called the Elf Clan, and the Bearded Elder is their king.
The Elf Clan has lived in the Dark Forest for unknown generations.
Originally, their lives were peaceful and happy, but at so unknown ti, a Forest of Death appeared in the west, where trees had dried up and died, all green leaves fallen, leaving only bare branches standing mysteriously.
Initially, the area was relatively small, but it continued to expand, sotis quickly, sotis slowly. It’s said that this year, the Forest of Death’s area has reached a third of the Dark Forest.
The Elf King and the elders have been devising ways to control the Forest of Death’s expansion, and in recent years, the forest has been stable, with slow expansion. No one knows why it suddenly accelerated or if it would greatly affect the Dark Forest and the Elf Clan.
Under the Elf King’s feet, the green cloud moves swiftly, almost disappearing in a flash, with his long beard fluttering in the wind.
Following behind him, Jin Bo uses a green cloud as well, but in comparison, the green cloud under his feet is a lighter shade than that beneath the Elf King.
The three youths, just as they appeared, skillfully climb tree branches with their arms, like three agile little monkeys, rapidly moving forward.
Zi Yu also uses a green cloud. Though young here, possessing the blood of the Devine Clan, his magical power is relatively strong.
Ye You uses magical power to condense magic wings, carrying Qin Sisi at the rear.
Due to their urgent mood, the Elf King’s speed is very fast, forcing those behind to exert all their efforts to barely keep up.
Along the way, quite a few ferocious and savage plants and animal demonic beasts are encountered, but seeing the Elf King there, they wisely retreat into hiding.
