Elental Demons’ Situation
“Why do I sense the qi of fire demons? I thought they’d be out on the frontlines as soon as possible.”
“Hard to say.” Lie Shang clarified, “Not all fire demons crave battle.”
“What would they co back here for?” queried Xiaoshuai.
Mu Yu suggested, “Whatever the case, we’re not here for them, so let’s tried to go around them.”
The detour was quickly cut short when they ca across a wide river originating from the top of the mountain and stretching farther than their eyes could see were houses, seemingly inspired by human architecture, constructed from ice and water sitting on the water surface of the river that was never there until now. Most importantly, there were adults dressed in blue chatting in the corridors and young water demons running in the corridors. Once the kids jumped into the water, they switched to their true forms.
“There must be thousands of houses here. This place resembles a utopia more than the imitations humans make. From mory, the teleportation formation is on the other side of the river. I don’t know how to sneak past this many water demons without alarming them.”
“Fly over the top?” Xiaoshuai suggested.
“They’ll sense your presence when entering their territory regardless of how high you fly,” stated Lie Shang.
“Start here and slaughter our way across?” Xiaoshuai proposed.
“We’ll be slaughtered before we make it across. Lie Shang, can you tell where the fire demons are?” Mu Yu asked from the forest.
“At least, a hundred kilotres to our left.”
“I can sense wood demons in this forest, but I can’t spot any traces of them. This is peculiar. Let’s head back before they’re alerted. Forcing our way through isn’t going to fly.”
“As a last resort, we can set up a small-scale Dragon Searching Formation to see if we can locate Xiang Nan. I still have so five elents formation foundations,” Lie Shang put forward.
“You’re not welco here.”
Wood demons mobilised the trees around the trio and erged from within, catching them in encirclent right off the bat. While the pack was focused on Lie Shang, the leader locked onto Mu Yu.
“I detect bloodlust from you.”
Why does this wood demon look as though it covets my bloodlust energy? Mu Yu pondered.
“Want to be fire wood,” rhetorically questioned Lie Shang, harnessing his flas on his arms.
“Where is Tree Elder?” Mu Yu asked.
“Tree Elder? We executed the coward ages ago,” scoffed the leader, transforming its leaves into blades.
“You want to clash with humans?” Mu Yu inquired in a low voiced.
The leader smirked. “Exactly. The coward wanted to avoid confrontations, but we don’t agree. You possess bloodlust energy and have Wood Spirit. Still, you’re not Lord Ju Mang. Allow to capture you and revive Lord Ju Mang.”
“More threats without substance.” Mu Yu tapped his foot, evening the odds with the trees in the vicinity, proving that his ability to control wood surpassed their own.
“Bloodlust energy certainly lives up to the hype. Thank you for coming here.”
The leader fired off a column of leaves upwards and then exploded it. Soone in the distance discharged bloodlust energy to signal they received the ssage and began to encroach.
Energy identical to the three reverends on an Ascension Realm opponent, Mu Yu Yu inwardly noted. “The wood reverend must’ve stolen Tree Elder’s bloodlust energy.”
Lie Shang clad himself in black flas, instilling fear in the wood demons.
Soone cast aside the trees Mu Yu mobilised before. The individual enveloped in leaves descended and then released the leaves, revealing her green dress, ample legs as well as her signature green hair.
“Who are you?” Mu Yu ntally ticked off a checklist as he readied himself for any attack from the maiden who appeared many tis more dangerous than Ye Feian.
“Wood demons’ new reverend, Xuelian,” announced Xuelian, tone more mature than her appearance.
