"Big brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me so strangely?"
The little girl blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Ye Chenfeng, who was staring at her with a burning gaze, and asked coquettishly.
"Uh, nothing." Ye Chenfeng rubbed his nose awkwardly. He looked away and asked, "Little girl, what's your name? Where are you from? This forest doesn't seem safe. Why did you come here?"
"My name is Ling Yu, and I'm a disciple of the Xuanming Sect. I came here to look for food." Ling Yu pouted her small mouth and explained while eating the 10,000-year-old Blood Jade Ginseng with relish.
"Why? You don't have enough to eat in the Xuanming Sect?" Ye Chenfeng's eyes lit up, and he asked patiently.
"Well, the food they gave me was disgusting, and they didn't give me the delicious food. In order to not be hungry, I could only come here to look for food." Ling Yu stuffed the entire 10,000-year-old Blood Jade Ginseng into her mouth and stuffed her mouth full. She nodded and said.
"Ling Yu, is this the delicious food you were talking about?"
Ye Chenfeng asked with a smile as he took out a Spiritual Grass from his Qiankun Ring. The Spiritual Grass was full of slender leaves, and it was green all over. It was full of spirituality.
"Three-thousand-year-old Seven-Star Grass!"
When the Spirit Fish saw the jade-green grass in Ye Chenfeng's hand that was emitting traces of Spiritual Energy, its eyes lit up as it spoke excitedly.
"Ling Yu, I have a lot of Spiritual Grasses like the Seven-Star Grass. If you don't want to go hungry, follow me in the future. I promise to let you eat until you're full every day."
As he spoke, Ye Chenfeng took out several thousand-year-old Spiritual Grasses that exuded rich Spiritual Qi. He looked at Ling Yu, whose eyes were wide open and was bursting with joy, and asked temptingly.
"Big brother, why are you so good to me? Don't tell me you have some ulterior motives?"
Although the thousand-year-old Spiritual Grass in Ye Chenfeng's hand was a fatal temptation to the Spiritual Fish, the intelligent Spiritual Fish's eyes revealed a trace of vigilance. It took two steps back and questioned Ye Chenfeng.
"Ling Yu, do you think I'm a bad person?" Ye Chenfeng's face turned slightly red. He smiled bitterly and said, "You're my benefactor. I won't harm you. I just feel that you're very similar to my sister. That's why I want to take care of you and not let you go hungry."
"I look like your sister." The Spirit Fish blinked and looked at Ye Chenfeng. "But we don't look alike at all. How could I look like your sister?"
Ye Chenfeng was rendered speechless by the Spirit Fish's question. He did not know how to explain.
"Forget it. If you don't want to follow me, I won't force you. Here, take these seven thousand-year-old herbs." Ye Chenfeng knew that pestering her would only backfire. He didn't force her and generously gave her the seven thousand-year-old herbs.
"Ling Yu, I'm going to recuperate. Take your time to eat these thousand-year-old herbs. You can ask me for more when you're done." Ye Chenfeng spoke softly and continued to tempt her with the herbs.
"Thank you!"
Holding the seven stalks of thousand-year-old Spirit Herbs that Ye Chenfeng gave her, the Spirit Fish had a complicated look in her eyes. However, the temptation of the seven stalks of thousand-year-old Spirit Herbs was too great. After hesitating for a while, she did not return them to Ye Chenfeng.
But in her heart, she had a trace of favorable impression of Ye Chenfeng.
"Boss, you are indeed capable. I think it won't be long before this young lady will follow you wholeheartedly." The Chaos Divine Beast opened its mouth and transmitted a message using its mind.
"Stop talking nonsense. Protect me. Remind me if there's any danger!"
Finishing his words, Ye Chenfeng consumed a heaven class soul elixir and sat cross-legged on the ground. He removed all distracting thoughts from his mind and controlled the 20 life dao patterns to slowly heal his injuries.
While Ye Chenfeng was recuperating, the Spirit Fish, who had eaten three thousand-year-old herbs consecutively, had an intoxicated look in her eyes. She didn't leave but curled up and fell asleep in the cave.
Just as the downpour gradually stopped, Ye Chenfeng, who was fully focused on recuperating, suddenly opened his tightly shut eyes. He looked out of the cave and revealed a trace of grave expression.
The Spirit Fish, who was sleeping soundly, was also awakened. Her tender face revealed a trace of fear as she spoke anxiously, "Big Brother, that strange tree is chasing after us. We have to leave this place quickly. If we are late, we might be in danger."
"Don't be afraid. Follow me."
Ye Chenfeng slowly stood up and brought the panicked spiritual fish out of the cave. They came to the humid valley and saw a five-meter-tall tree with dragon-like ancient vines coiling around its trunk. An old face could be vaguely seen in the trunk of the tree. There were more than ten spiritual fruits on the tree, and the ancient tree was emitting a strong demonic aura. It moved the muddy mountain and approached them at an extremely fast speed.
"Big Brother, this Tree Demon is very powerful. Let's escape quickly."
Seeing the Tree Demon getting closer, the Spirit Fish was so frightened that her face turned pale. She quickly pulled Ye Chenfeng's hand and wanted to escape.
"Don't be afraid. Leave everything to me!"
The Tree Demon in front of them might be extremely dangerous, and Ye Chenfeng's current strength was not enough to deal with it. But with the Chaos Divine Wood, he wasn't afraid of the Tree Demon. He held the Spirit Fish's ice-cold hand tightly and spoke calmly.
"Despicable human. How dare you steal my spirit fruits while I was sleeping. I will suck your blood dry and kill you!"
The Tree Demon let out a human-like roar. Thousands of roots as black as ink broke through the hard mountain, forming a prison of roots, trapping Ye Chenfeng and Ye Qingtang inside.
"Chaos Divine Wood!"
Just as the Tree Demon trapped Ye Chenfeng and the Spirit Fish and was about to launch a fatal attack on them, the Chaos Divine Wood appeared on Ye Chenfeng's body and released a glaring five-colored light.
"What, what kind of spirit wood is this?"
The Tree Demon, who had spiritual wisdom, instinctively felt fear when it saw the Chaos Divine Wood. It forgot to attack for a moment.
"Chaos Divine Wood, devour!"
While the Tree Demon was still in fear, the Chaos Divine Wood condensed a large number of five-colored roots and stabbed into the root prison like sharp swords. It crazily absorbed the spirit energy contained in the roots.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of roots were sucked dry by the Chaos Divine Wood and completely withered. When the wind blew, they turned into dust and scattered with the wind.
"Despicable humans, I'll let you go today."
After seeing how terrifying the Chaos Divine Wood was, the Tree Demon did not dare to stay any longer. It quickly collected the remaining roots and swayed its lush tree crown as it escaped at an extremely fast speed.
"Big Brother, you're so powerful. You managed to chase away such a powerful Tree Demon."
When the Spirit Fish saw the ferocious Tree Demon turn around and escape, it let out a long sigh of relief and said excitedly.
The moment the Chaos Divine Wood appeared, the Spirit Fish was attracted by the spirit energy released by the Chaos Divine Wood. It became closer to Ye Chenfeng and had a feeling that it did not want to leave him.
"Let's go, Spirit Fish. Let's leave this place."
After saying that, Ye Chenfeng led the Spirit Fish out of the humid valley and came to the periphery of the forest.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west and the sky was gradually darkening. The dazzling sunset reflected the sky red.
"Big Brother, it's getting late. I have to go."
The spirit fish raised its head and looked at the sunset in the sky and said reluctantly.
"Spirit Fish, this forest is a little dangerous, and my injuries are too serious. I want to go with you to recuperate. Is that okay?" Ye Chenfeng thought for a while and asked.
"Big Brother, I'm only a servant disciple in the Mysterious Underworld Sect. If you go with me, you might suffer." The Spirit Fish bit her lips and said.
"It's okay. I'm not afraid of suffering. I just want to find a safe place to recuperate." Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said.
After knowing the Spirit Fish's situation in the Mysterious Underworld Sect, Ye Chenfeng was secretly happy. The worse her sense of belonging to the Mysterious Underworld Sect, the more likely she would go with him.
"Okay then, let's go."
The Spirit Fish hesitated for a while before bringing Ye Chenfeng out of the humid forest and back to the Mysterious Underworld Sect in the night.
