Where does that wicked woman get her conscience?

Chapter 145 Fujibayashi

"Ice attribute".

The boy's eyes lit up, and he quickly waved to the three people over there, "That's perfect, the four of you are just enough to keep an eye on both the front and back."

"What do you mean by before and after?" Guan Xun asked, tilting his head.

“We plan to cross the vine forest. If you’re also interested, we can team up.” The tall man who spoke had a furrowed brow and seemed to have no room for jokes. “We’re in a hurry.”

Guan Xun nodded as if suddenly realizing something, but his voice was somewhat hesitant: "I do want to go, but with my current level..."

Before he could finish speaking, his voice trailed off.

The goatee-bearded man's probing gaze swept over her, and he frowned.

Not even level 30? Isn't she a burden? If she joins the team, we might have to protect her. She looks so delicate... But there's no time to wait for anyone else right now.

"Alright, the four of us will each take care of the front and back, you can walk in the middle." He said with a bit of helplessness, "Just remember that there can't be any vines in the middle."

Upon hearing this, the boy's face fell, and he pointed at himself, shouting, "What about me? What about me? I want to walk in the middle too!"

"You'd better focus on what's behind you."

The boy immediately deflated: "Sigh, okay."

Guan Xun knew nothing about Teng Lin, nor did she understand what they meant by "considering both the front and the back." She nodded slightly.

"Is this your spirit pet?" The tall man suddenly looked at Chi Rong on her shoulder and said, "It's inconvenient to take it with you inside. It'll be chaotic inside, and you won't be able to take care of it. You might even lose it without even noticing."

Upon hearing this, Chi Rong, who had been lying down sleeping, suddenly straightened up, raised her head, and glared at him fiercely, looking quite menacing.

Guan Xun chuckled and shook his head: "It's alright. If I lose it, I'll just go into the mountains and catch another one with a better temperament."

Chi Rong:......

The man didn't say much; since the other party had already said that, he had nothing more to say.

The two men in front nodded to each other, then simultaneously raised their magical weapons, which were covered in spiritual energy, and swung them straight at the thick vines!

A huge opening suddenly appeared in the vine forest.

"Follow!"

……

All I could see was green, as if I were trapped inside the trunk of vines, with no light from the outside penetrating me.

The darkness was pervasive, and one could only locate objects by sound.

Besides the sound of vines being cut, there was also a hissing sound in his ears. Guan Xun tilted his head slightly and was startled.

The vines throughout the entire vine forest were all throbbing and spreading, and those from several miles around were rushing towards them at high speed.

"Concentrate!" the man in front suddenly shouted.

Guan Xun immediately felt something surging beneath her feet. She looked down and saw a dark shadow darting upwards, its target her ankle.

With a casual flick of his hand, the vine snapped instantly, making a crisp sound.

The owner of the rental point once mentioned that apart from being a bit noisy, the place was not dangerous.

It seems that this is indeed the case; although the vines came on strong, they did not intend to harm anyone.

As her thoughts drifted, Guan Xun suddenly felt her surroundings gradually clearing up. She quickly looked around and was surprised to find that the vines were emitting a faint green light, which soon illuminated the entire vine forest.

Only then can you see the surrounding situation clearly.

The vines that were cut off while clearing the path miraculously grew new shoots directly from the broken ends, requiring no time to heal at all.

Guan Xun turned to look behind him, but there was no way back. All he could see were the vines that were being quickly gathered and restored to their original state.

Now she understood what "considering both the front and the back" really meant. If the group stopped for even a moment, they would be instantly entangled by the vines and lose all room to maneuver.

"Sister, you have to keep an eye on the middle part. The vines glow at night, and they get even more excited." The boy turned his head in a moment of respite. Despite the vines coming at him aggressively, he handled them with ease, as if it were nothing.

Guan Xun glanced at him casually, looking quite relaxed, with people protecting him from both the front and the back, and only occasionally a few stray hairs would dart out in the middle.

No wonder everyone wants to take the middle ground. She's happy to have some peace and quiet, since she's only level 30 and below.

Chi Rong flicked his tail and yawned: "Master, you're slacking off."

Suddenly, the vines above his head shot down rapidly. Guan Xun didn't even lift his eyelids; with a flick of his finger, he broke it in two.

The cool juice dripped onto her fingers, and she gave a disgusted smirk before wiping it on Chi Rong's body: "What are you saying?"

Chi Rong: "I was wrong..."

Just at this time.

A sudden cry of surprise came from ahead. Guan Xun looked up and saw the man with the goatee fall forward.

Upon seeing this, the tall man next to him immediately reached out and grabbed the back of the man's collar, attempting to pull him up.

But as soon as he stretched out his hand, the vines on both sides quickly closed in on his hand, and in the blink of an eye, they had already crossed between the two of them.

The tall man cursed and immediately swung his magical weapon to cut off the vines around his hands. However, the vines continued to grow wildly on all sides. He could take care of one side, but he naturally neglected the other side.

Just as the vines were about to close tightly, Guan Xun's spiritual power surged into his palm and blasted at the rapidly growing vines.

A large hole was blasted into the vines in an instant, and at the same time, the spiritual energy turned into mist and spread out, forming two ice walls around them.

Guan Xun immediately stepped forward and pulled the man up.

"Crack... Bang bang bang!" In such a short time, the ice wall was actually squeezed and cracked open, and the vines grew even more wildly than before, like a floodgate being opened, and they came crashing down from all sides in strings.

Guan Xun was slightly startled and turned his head to look. The figures of the young man and woman had already been hidden in the vines.

A surge of energy rose beneath her feet, and a vine as thick as a person suddenly shot up from below, ripping her skirt and tearing a large gash in it.

She immediately frowned and stepped back, but after only half a step, her back bumped into a solid vine.

In the blink of an eye, the vines rapidly intertwined and wrapped around her from all sides, firmly binding her within the vine grove.

The figures of the two men ahead also vanished in an instant.

The vine pressed against Guan Xun's chin without any politeness, forcing her to tilt her chin up. The tender green leaves on it kept brushing against her face, causing itching and a heavy feeling of pressure all over her body.

Guan Xun felt her ankles suddenly being tightly wrapped by vines, which seemed to be pulling her upwards. Her brow twitched.

Chi Rong slipped out from the crack, a flame flickering at the tip of its raised tail: "Master, should I burn it?"

Guan Xun raised an eyebrow slightly, and dark flames slowly emerged from her body, burning the vines that were pressing against her to ashes.

A few meters away from the center of your feet, the space suddenly becomes vast and empty. Vines are still sprouting wildly from the scalded areas, but as soon as they emerge, they are burned to ashes.

She looked around and sighed softly. This vine forest was really causing a lot of trouble.
