The three of them arrived at the forest. The moment they landed, the radish's body glowed red. Its entire body began to stretch, and the surrounding Wood Spirit Qi surged towards it. Lonemoon hurriedly set up defensive and Spirit Qi arrays all around the forest. The radish's entire body had turned red, and the Wood Spirit Qi around it grew thicker and thicker. The dense Spirit Qi caused the trees within a few meters of it to grow wildly, encircling it and becoming denser.
The three of them had no choice but to retreat more than ten meters away. At this time, they could no longer see the radish's figure. All that was left was an impenetrable cocoon made of trees. The sky suddenly darkened, and lightning began to flash between the clouds.
"It's going through a tribulation," Lonemoon reminded them, and set up an array around the three of them.
Indeed, in the next moment, there was a loud rumble of thunder. White lightning tore through the clouds and struck the tree cocoon below, instantly charring half of it. But the lightning did not stop. Instead, it struck one after another, getting heavier and heavier. In less than a minute, the impenetrable cocoon had been struck into pieces. A cloud of dust flew in the middle, obscuring the radish's appearance. Only a faint burnt smell wafted through the air.
It was not until the lightning struck eighty-one times that the clouds in the sky dissipated, and the surroundings became bright again. The ground was charred black, and there was only a large pit where the radish had been.
"It's burnt?" Shen Ying could not help but ask after a long time.
"Master, it's fine," Yi Qing explained. "Vegetation spirits are not affected by the karma of the mortal world before they are formed. That's why the lightning tribulation is the least harmful to all living beings."
Sure enough, in the next moment, the originally scorched black ground seemed to be rejuvenated, instantly turning into a vast expanse of green. In just half a breath of time, the ground was filled with flowers that bloomed in vibrant colors.
A figure crawled out of the pit on all fours. It was a teenager (girl?) who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. She was dressed in green, and her long hair reached the ground. She had a young face, and she was breathtakingly beautiful. She was like the most perfect masterpiece of heaven. Even the flowers on the ground paled in comparison to her beauty. Even Qi Chengyu was not as beautiful as her.
For a moment, it was as if the sun and moon had lost their radiance. The only thing left in the world was the person walking slowly towards them.
The three of them were stunned. Even their breathing stopped for a moment. They were shocked by the appearance of the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth. His faint smile was like the blossoming of thousands of flowers, and the sound of stringed instruments lingered in the ears.
"Little Missy, I'm transforming … Aiya!" Before he could finish his words, he suddenly stumbled. His beautiful figure trembled and fell directly to the ground, rolling all the way to the feet of the three people.
The three of them were speechless.
He could vaguely hear the sound of something shattering.
Heh! As expected, it was still that radish.
-_-|||
"Little Missy …" It raised its head pitifully and reached out to hug her thigh out of habit.
Shen Ying frowned and took a step back. "Get out of my way!" She said angrily.
"…"
"Hey." Shen Ying nudged Lonemoon. "Is it a boy or a girl?"
"How would I know?" Lonemoon looked at the radish carefully. "Spirit plants and plants are mostly genderless. After they transform, they can probably be either male or female."
"Transvestite?" Shen Ying paused and took another step back in disgust.
The radish was stunned, and its whole body wilted like a frosted eggplant. Tears welled up in its eyes, and it looked nothing like before.
The corner of Lonemoon's mouth twitched. Looking at the person on the ground who was still looking at them with tears in his eyes, he explained, "He just transformed and is not used to walking. That's why he's like this. He'll be fine in two days." With that said, he could not help but step forward and reach out his hand. "Get up."
The radish's eyes turned cold. With a smack, it slapped his hand away and said loudly, "Get lost, ugly!"
"…"
With that said, it continued to look at Shen Ying with tears in its eyes. "Wah wah … Radish needs Little Missy to carry him before he can get up."
Shen Ying: "…"
Yi Qing: "…"
The corner of Lonemoon's mouth twitched. Two seconds later …
"Damn it, I'm going to cut you up!" He directly pulled out his sword and rushed forward.
"Supremacy Niu, calm down!" Yi Qing hurriedly stepped forward and stopped him. "He just transformed and is still a child. It's normal for him to not understand human emotions. You don't have to take it to heart."
Who would believe that? This radish was obviously doing it on purpose! And what the hell was this Supremacy Niu?!
Yi Qing could only turn to look at the radish. "Radish, just now you …"
"Cheh!" The radish snorted coldly. "Another shameless follower!"
Yi Qing: "…"
Swish! Another sword was pulled out.
The next moment.
"What … What are you trying to do?"
"I'm Little Missy's radish!"
"Stop, help! Little Missy … "
Shen Ying: "…" F * cking retard.
— — —
This one-sided two-on-one fight went on for a whole 15 minutes. The two only stopped when there was no longer any unscathed skin on the radish's newly born face.
The radish covered its swollen face and pitifully shrunk back to its original form. The originally white and plump radish had already turned purple.
"Little Missy …" The radish did not give up and reached out to Shen Ying with its leaves, feeling very aggrieved.
But Yi Qing directly lifted it up. "Master, what do you think about making radish soup tonight?"
"How can soup taste as good as stir-frying it?" Lonemoon shook his sore hands. "I think we should cut it into strips, or fry it, or even fry it raw."
"Sob sob sob …" You're just jealous of my beauty.
"Hey, that's enough from the two of you." Shen Ying rolled her eyes. Was it fun to bully a vegetable? "Didn't you say we're going to that whatever city?"
"Upper Azure City." Lonemoon took a step forward. "Usually, people who enter the Upper Azure World from the Lower Realm will go to Upper Azure City first. All the big aristocratic families and sects will recruit disciples there. We've just arrived and don't know much about the Upper Realm. It's good to go there and find out more. "
As he spoke, he pointed to the right and said, "When we were eating earlier, I asked around. Upper Azure City is not far from here. We'll reach it after passing through this forest. "
"Oh, then let's go!" Shen Ying waved her hand, indicating for Yi Qing to summon his spirit sword.
The three of them were about to fly up on their swords when suddenly they heard an angry roar from behind.
"Stop right there!"
Shen Ying faltered. The next moment, more than ten cultivators flew out of the forest and surrounded them.
Two middle-aged men walked out of the crowd. One was dressed in a blue robe, the other in a green robe. Both of them had three copper coins embroidered on the corners of their robes. They looked at the three of them angrily. The man in green held an abacus in his hand. It looked a little familiar.
"Hmph, you've really made it hard for me to find you!" The middle-aged man in green took a step forward and swung the abacus in his hand. He turned to the person beside him and said loudly, "Boss, these are the people who dined and dashed at Drifting Fragrance Restaurant!"
"…"
