Fang Yun took a closer look. It was Nie Xiao Qian …
Fang Yun clenched his fists, his eyes cold as ice.
"Why did Granny Tree Demon punish the female ghost? What happened? "A scholar asked in a low voice.
Fang Yun slowly said, "That female ghost was once betrothed to me, but after she died, her ashes were stolen by Granny Tree Demon and she became a ghost. Yesterday, she secretly came to warn us not to go near Granny Tree Demon, but she was discovered. "
"What are you going to do?" Yan Chixia asked.
Fang Yun hesitated, but then said firmly, "Our main goal is to get out of Southern Ruo Forest. If we can save her, then we will. If we can't, then we won't save her."
Suddenly, an old woman's face appeared on the surface of the giant tree. She opened her mouth and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha …"
Everyone was on high alert. The Elementary Scholars put down the boards in front of their chests while the Scholars took out their swords, shields and bows. Only Fang Yun and Yan Chixia remained motionless.
"Xiao Qian, did you hear that? This is the Fang that you can't forget about! For his woman, he didn't even care about you, his dead fiancée. Tell me, why did you go there last night? Why? Why don't you just be my servant? "
Nie Xiao Qian lowered her head, her long hair covering her face. Her body trembled from the pain. She whispered, "Since I was betrothed to Fang, I am his woman in life and his ghost in death. Naturally, I have to help him!"
"Cheap servant!" Granny Tree Demon was furious.
A root as thick as a person's waist shot out from the ground, its slender tip whipping Nie Xiao Qian's body.
"Ah …" Nie Xiao Qian raised her head from the pain and let out a miserable cry. Her face was filled with pain and the glow on her body dimmed.
Fang Yun said loudly, "Everyone says that Granny Tree Demon is a shameless cowardly old beast. Today, I have seen it for myself. Not only do you only know how to bully a weak female ghost, you don't even have the courage to fight me, a High Scholar. You only know how to hide behind a group of demons and barbarians and call yourself Granny. "
"Hahaha … Mere provocation is useless against me! Xiao Qian, you might not know. Your husband didn't come here to save you, but to save his lover, a snake demon! Haha, in his heart, even a snake demon is more important than you. Tell me, how can I hand you over to him? "
Nie Xiaoqian looked at Fang Yun from afar, her gaze resolute. "I … I'm dead after all. Fang Yun is good no matter what."
"Bitch! Fang Yun, did you hear that? Xiaoqian is so good to you, and you still want to find that snake demon? How about this? Go and lure White Lady here. As long as you give me her half moon lotus, I will give Xiao Qian to you. "
Fang Yundao said, "Then why don't you come with us to Jinshan Academy? It's not within the range of the Holy Temple. You can save White Lady there. You saved her life, so she will definitely be willing to give you the Moon Lotus. "
"Do you think I'm a pig demon? If I go to Golden Mountain Academy, that old bastard Cai Fahai will definitely kill me first! Looks like you don't care about Xiao Qian at all! Xiaoqian, did you see that? "
Xiaoqian said softly, "Whatever Young Master Fang does is good!"
Granny Tree Demon laughed. The tree trunk shook slightly, and the leaves fell down one after another.
"Fang Yun, compared to Xiaoqian, you are simply a heartless lover! Xiaoqian not only betrayed me for you. When I interrogated her about you, she didn't say a word! I didn't expect that she had already turned into a ghost, but you still didn't want to be kind and save her! "
Fang Yun looked at Granny Tree Demon in the distance and said, "She could have been buried in peace. Who is worse than a pig or a dog that imprisoned her ghost? She should have been reincarnated. Which bastard forced her to harm others? You are the murderer, so you can't mess with my heart! "
"I'm a demon, but you are a scholar. If a scholar doesn't save his dead fiancee, then what is he if not a heartless and heartless person? "Granny Tree Demon's face, which was condensed from tree bark, revealed a malicious smile.
Fang Yun straightened his body and said, "There is a difference in the size of a gift, and there is a difference in the weight of righteousness. I have feelings for Xiaoqian, and White Lady has a kindness to me. I came to save White Lady, so I naturally won't give up on repaying White Lady's kindness because of Xiaoqian. You are only a demon, so you naturally don't understand the kindness of the human race! I advise you to let Xiaoqian go. Otherwise, when I leave the Southern Ruo Forest and save White Lady, I will definitely kill you! "
"Hahaha … A mere scholar wants to kill me? What a big tone! If you can't escape from the Southern Ruo Forest, I will eat you. If you can escape with Yan Chixia, then I will first kill Xiaoqian, and then I will contact those traitors and spread the news to the world that you betrayed your human fiancee for a demon! I won't let your dead wife rest in peace! "
"The person who killed her is you! Xiaoqian, I am indebted to you, so I have to let go of my feelings. If there's a chance, I'll definitely come and save you. If even your ghost body has perished, I'll definitely tear Granny Tree Demon into pieces to avenge your soul being captured! "Fang Yun's voice was resolute and decisive, like the long cry of a sword.
"Then I want to see how you can escape from the Half Moon Gorge! How can you cross my Wall of Ten Thousand Trees! "
Yan Chixia laughed and said, "Old witch, I have fought with you many times. Other than your tree roots, what other tricks do you have that are useful to me? Although there are many trees, I will cut them down with my sharp tongue! "
"Cut them down. After cutting down these trees, I want to see how much energy you have left to run away with your people!" Granny Tree Demon's body trembled, and the soil within a thousand feet around her began to churn. The densely packed tree roots moved up and down in the soil, like huge earthworms loosening the soil. Those demons and barbarians were so scared that they quickly lowered their heads.
However, Fang Yun said, "You are just a mere Commander Tree Demon. Today, I will let you experience the power of the human race. Brother Yan, your sharp tongue has already reached the second realm, the ability to split the air. Can you help me with a small matter? "
"Just say it."
"This Tree Demon is guarding the Half Moon Gorge, but her true power comes from the entire Southern Ruo Forest. As long as you use your sharp tongue to dig out a deep trench, then plant tree branches and ignite them with fire oil, cutting off the connection between the Southern Ruo Forest and Half Moon Gorge. Granny Tree Demon's power will decrease by at least twenty percent. "
The old face on the huge tree trembled slightly. Granny Tree Demon was shocked and said angrily, "How do you know about my matters!"
"Guess." Fang Yun's lips curled up into an undetectable arc.
"Good! You are indeed a young hero! " Yan Chixia said as he spat out his sharp tongue. A white light flew out from his mouth with an ear-piercing whistle.
The ancient sword flew into the soil and moved in the ground with a loud rumble. The soil surged up and was pushed away by a huge force, scattering to the sides.
A three feet deep trench appeared in front of everyone, and it was continuously extending.
Fang Yundao said, "This place is not even one mile wide. Brother Yan will be able to dig it out in less than fifteen minutes. Quickly find trees and other flammable things."
"Yes!" Everyone ran back. There were many trees here, and filling the trench was easy. The smoke assassins formed by the 《Yi Shui Song》 were the best lumberjacks.
Granny Tree Demon's branches trembled slightly. Her black tree trunk emitted a strong evil aura. Waves of black fog spread out from the tree crown.
"Why would I fall for your plan to lure me away? You just want to force me to leave Half Moon Gorge, and then escape with Yan Chixia! I will stay here and not move. Even if I can't borrow power from the Southern Ruo Forest, you can't do anything to me! "
A bear demon general said, "Granny, why don't we kill our way over?"
"Idiot! I can't take care of the area one mile away. If you kill your way over, won't that be the same as sending yourself to death? Which one of you can stop Yan Chixia! "Granny Tree Demon shouted loudly. The old face on the tree trunk became even more terrifying.
"I know my mistake." The bear demon general hurriedly admitted his mistake.
"Since this Fang Yun knows so much, I'm afraid he will use fire to attack me. Hmph, I am afraid of fire, but that is at least the fire of a grand scholar's battle poem. What can a mere high scholar like him do to me! Let them take their time. I have ten thousand trees, enough for them to kill until the sky is dark! When the sky is dark, they will no longer have a choice! "
"Granny's magic power is boundless." A dog demon general immediately flattered her loudly.
The other demons and barbarians all flattered her. Granny Tree Demon's branches trembled slightly. She was very happy.
Not long after, Yan Chixia had dug a gully, completely separating Half Moon Gorge from the Southern Ruo Forest. The gully was already covered with tree branches and even whole trees.
Everyone stepped over the gully. Fang Yun splashed some kerosene. The entire gully was quickly set ablaze. Tongues of fire shot up to ten feet high, like a wall of fire, completely separating everyone from the Southern Ruo Forest.
Fang Yundao said, "The flames here have burned away all the vitality in the gully, cutting off a part of Granny Tree Demon's power. Next, we will have to deal with these big trees. "
Between Fang Yun and Granny Tree Demon, there were many seemingly ordinary Southern Ruo Forest ancient trees. They also had black branches and grey leaves, but they were different from the ordinary Southern Ruo Forest trees. The edges of the leaves of these ten thousand trees had a trace of blood.
Suddenly, Granny Tree Demon shook the treetops violently. Cracks appeared on the trunks of the ten thousand ancient trees, forming a face that looked like a human. It had eyes and a mouth, and it roared together.
Their roots shot out from the ground and whipped around like pythons. They were full of power, enough to crush a living person.
These tall ancient trees were like giant soldiers. Each tree was four to five stories tall, filled with immense pressure. Not to mention the humans, even the demon and barbarian soldiers' eyes were filled with reverence.
Yan Chixia said, "The old witch has the ability to control trees. I was once trapped in the Ten Thousand Trees Formation. These trees are extremely strange. Even if I cut them down, they will reconnect in less than a hundred breaths. I have Han Lin Wenbao, so I can break through, but it will be difficult for you all. "
Fang Yun said, "These trees have the power of Granny Tree Demon. You can't completely destroy them with just your ancient sword. Actually, the solution is very simple. Add the power of Wenbao on your ancient sword and cut off the vitality of these ancient trees. These ancient trees will need at least two hours to recover."
"Who are you!" Granny Tree Demon suddenly roared. Her tone was filled with caution for the first time.
Those smart demons subconsciously took half a step back. They had followed Granny Tree Demon for many years. Even people like Yan Chixia were not taken seriously by Granny Tree Demon. But this young High Scholar did it!
"Guess again." Fang Yundao said.
Yan Chixia laughed and said, "I only know now. You have already predicted that I can help you break this Ten Thousand Trees Formation!" As he said that, he spat out his sharp tongue again.
The white ancient sword tore through the air like a dancing snake, sweeping past one tree after another.
Wherever the ancient sword passed, all the trees would be cut in half and fall to the ground in rows.
