When they cut open the Snake Vine Mother Tree for the second time to extract the sap, White Lotus specially observed this silvery-white and abnormally beautiful mother tree. As expected, as the sap flowed out, the halo of the Snake Vine Mother Tree seemed to have dimmed a lot.
And when they smeared the sap on their bodies again, the luster of the Snake Vine Mother Tree was already on the verge of collapse.
Obviously, the situation was just as Lu Chen had said before. They only had one last chance.
Lu Chen glanced at the Snake Vine Mother Tree, and his expression didn't change much. He directly walked out. Atsu followed behind him, and White Lotus hesitated for a moment, but also followed.
"You're still following me?" Lu Chen didn't look back, but his voice could still be clearly heard. "You really don't want to live anymore?"
White Lotus looked at his back and said, "Tell me the secret of the Blood Food on Atsu's body, and I'll leave immediately."
Lu Chen's footsteps paused for a moment, then he turned his head, and a strange and complicated expression appeared on his face. He said, "I let you go because I'm worried that you'll be in danger if you follow me. I'm afraid that I'll harm your life. This is my kindness to you. But why do I feel like you're using my kindness to threaten me? "
White Lotus thought for a moment, but nodded and said, "That seems to be the case."
Lu Chen said indifferently, "Do you think that good people are easy to bully? I sympathize with you and think for your sake, so you deserve to be threatened and bullied?"
White Lotus remained silent. Lu Chen shook his head and said, "There's no such logic in this world."
White Lotus walked to his side. She wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she sighed and said, "I said the wrong thing. But I still want to say that even if there's no such logic in this world, there are many such things in this world. "
This time, it was Lu Chen's turn to fall silent. A long while later, he softly sighed and said, "Therefore, I will not be a good person."
In the end, Lu Chen and White Lotus were separated in this Snake Overgrown Forest.
White Lotus didn't feel that her relationship with this man had reached the point of life and death, nor did she have the intention to go on a dangerous journey with him. Lu Chen also didn't reveal any secrets to White Lotus until they parted ways.
When they parted ways in the deep and dark Snake Forest, White Lotus asked Lu Chen if they would have a chance to meet again. Lu Chen shook his head. White Lotus looked at him and said, "Are you resigned to your fate and don't intend to come back alive?" Lu Chen knew that was not what he meant. Who knew what would happen in the future?
If fate allows it, let's meet again in the future.
After saying these words, they brushed past each other and walked in an unknown direction. After walking for a while, Bai Lian turned back to look. She could see the figure of the man walking away from her. Beside him was the giant black wolf, as if it was the only companion he had in his life.
…
White Lotus chose a path towards the northeast. Just like the places she had passed before, the Snake Overgrown Forest was filled with black hanging vines. They hung on the seemingly omnipresent black trees like giant sleeping snakes.
White Lotus had seen how terrifying these "giant snakes" were once they woke up not long ago. Thinking of what Lu Chen meant when he said that this forest would eat "things", she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine even though she was extremely brave.
However, after smearing the Snake Overgrown Mother Tree's tree sap on her body, the vines remained very calm. They did not have any intention of attacking her. Just like that, White Lotus walked out of the Snake Overgrown Forest without any mishaps.
When she reached the edge of the Snake Overgrown Forest, White Lotus deliberately looked out. There was no movement in the surroundings, especially when the murderous men in black from before did not appear here.
This allowed her to heave a sigh of relief, and then she swiftly walked over. However, she'd only walked around 3m out of the forest when something flashed before her eyes. A black clothed figure flashed out from behind a hill at the side, and he held an immortal sword and directly obstructed her path.
White Lotus's face darkened. She focused her attention and took precautions. However, the man in black did not seem to have any intention of attacking her. He only glanced at her and a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes. He seemed to be slightly surprised at White Lotus's young age.
"Young lady, where's your companion from before?" The man in black asked. His expression was actually not very stern.
White Lotus snorted and did not reply. Instead, she glanced left and right, looking like she was looking for an opportunity to escape.
The man in black's gaze immediately sharpened. He frowned and said, "Don't make things difficult for yourself. You'd better hurry up …"
Before he could finish speaking, White Lotus's figure suddenly flashed, and she had already flown to the side.
The man in black was furious. He extended his hand and grabbed. The hand seemed to be far away, but suddenly, it seemed to have used some kind of ability and suddenly grew several times its original size. It seemed to grow with the wind and directly grabbed White Lotus's back.
White Lotus's body suddenly sank in mid-air. Her entire body suddenly landed on the ground, and then she turned around. Instantly, a layer of frost and snow drifted in front of her. With a few cracking sounds, the strange hand was actually frozen.
The man in black in the distance made a sound of surprise, and his gaze towards White Lotus immediately became slightly different. The black hand shook a few times, shaking off the surrounding ice and snow, and at the same time, it shrank back.
White Lotus took the opportunity to continue flying, but at this moment, she suddenly heard a whistling sound behind her. The sound seemed to be piercing through the air, and she could not help but feel her heart skip a beat. She subconsciously looked back, and her face immediately paled.
The immortal sword in the black-robed man's hand glowed brightly and emitted a dazzling azure light. One split into two, two into three, and in an instant, there were actually fifty to sixty dazzling azure lights that were around five feet in length. They formed an incomparably fierce azure sword formation that covered the heavens and the earth as it rushed over.
The sword formation was extremely powerful, and in an instant, it surrounded White Lotus and directly slashed down.
White Lotus was greatly shocked, retreated a few steps and used all her strength to dodge, but she still could not escape from the range of this magnificent sword formation. Instead, she was quickly forced to a dead end, seeing that the tens of green lights were about to land and pierce through her body.
At that moment, a wave of despair surged in White Lotus's heart, at the same time, she was also bewildered: This person's cultivation was obviously extremely high, he was definitely not an ordinary person. What was his identity and background?
Right at this critical moment, a long howl suddenly sounded out, and then a brilliant golden light descended from the sky. It spun rapidly in mid-air, and there was actually the sound of thunder in the sky. It was like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky, and it suddenly fell into the Green Light Sword Formation.
The green light first sank and then it actually expanded against the trend, and instead rolled up and pounced towards that golden light. A figure appeared from the golden light, it was Zhuo Xian.
However, at this moment, Zhuo Xian's expression was extremely solemn. He looked at the man in black in front of him, and with a shake of his wrist, the golden light shone brightly again, but it transformed into a dazzling golden wheel in mid-air, rumbling as it rotated, and met the green light head-on.
The golden and azure immortal lights collided with each other without any finesse. There was a loud bang, and the shockwaves rose and fell. White Lotus only felt a roar in her ears. She took a few steps back, her head still ringing.
The golden and green lights slowly retracted, and in mid-air, Zhuo Xian and the man in black hovered in mid-air, facing each other. After a moment, Zhuo Xian took a deep breath, and was the first to put away the magic treasure in his hand. He cupped his hands and said, "Thousand Extremes Dark Green Sword, which senior brother of the Thousand Extremes Sect are you?"
The man in black stared at Zhuo Xian's face, and after a moment, he nodded slightly. With a wave of his hand, the sky full of green lights also fell and dissipated, turning back into an immortal sword and returning to the sword box on his back. Then, he reached out and took off the black cloth on his face, revealing the face of a man with thick eyebrows and a square face. He looked to be about thirty years old, and he had a calm bearing. He said, "I am Hou Zhenglong of the Thousand Extremes Sect. Your 'Golden Arc Wheel' is also impressive, could it be that you are from the Kunlun sect? "
Zhuo Xian said, "I am Zhuo Xian of the Kunlun Party."
Hou Zhenglong frowned slightly, and after a moment of thought, a trace of surprise suddenly appeared on his face. He said, "Could it be that you are Zhuo Xian, senior brother Zhuo of the Hakushin Jinkun sect?"
Zhuo Xian said, "That's me."
The Thousand Extremes Sect was not a small sect, but one of the five famous sects of Zhenxianmeng that were on par with the Kunlun sect. There were countless experts and cultivators in the sect. Before today, Zhuo Xian had never heard of Hou Zhenglong, but just based on the Thousand Extremes Dark Green Sword he had just used, his momentum was vigorous, sharp, and steady. When he attacked, it was like a storm, and when he retreated, it was like a whale sucking in water. He could go up and stop at will, so it was obvious that this person's cultivation was very high, and his foundation was very solid. He must be an outstanding talent that appeared in the Thousand Extremes Sect in recent years.
Hou Zhenglong also seemed to be very respectful towards Zhuo Xian, but the look in his eyes seemed a little strange.
Zhuo Xian had a rough idea in his heart. It had been some time since the night of the full moon, and the news of Hakushin Jinkun's death should have spread, so it would not be strange if Hou Zhenglong knew about it.
However, of course, he would not tell Hou Zhenglong about these things, but after sizing up Hou Zhenglong's attire, he frowned and said, "Brother Hou, your attire seems to be …"
Hou Zhenglong laughed and said, "I won't hide it from Zhuo Shixiong, right now I'm working for the Floating Clouds Division of the True Immortal Alliance. Right now, I'm working with the brothers in my division to do something big. My disguise is to disguise as a demon from the Evil Cult."
Zhuo Xian suddenly understood, nodded and said, "I see."
Hou Zhenglong laughed, and then his gaze fell on White Lotus who was standing beside Zhuo Xian, and then his expression turned serious, pointed at White Lotus and said, "Brother Zhuo, may I ask when you saved this little girl just now, do you know her identity?"
Zhuo Xian nodded and said, "Yes, her name is White Lotus, and she is my junior sister. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me brother Hou. "
Hou Zhenglong was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment, "She is your junior sister, then she is also Hakushin Jinkun's disciple?"
Zhuo Xian hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yes, junior sister is my teacher's last disciple."
Hou Zhenglong frowned, looked at White Lotus, and his face suddenly darkened, and said, "That is strange, may I ask why your junior sister was with that Devil Sect demon before?"
