Chapter 951 - Night search
The small courtyard was still the small courtyard that they were in the day and also that tree, the stone table under the tree, the silver stone stools and the person who sat there were all the same.
But it felt like it all changed.
The feeling that the person gave in the day was holy and pure, but the feeling they felt now was more evil and demonic.
Sima You Yue looked at Li Hong, no, looking at that person’s vibe, it wasn’t the same as the person in the daytime, it should be another spirit from his body, Li Zhi.
Li Zhi held a jade green agate cup, inside was fresh red blood.
“Little tree, has the competition started?” Li Zhi took a sip of blood and asked softly.
“Sssss——”
Blood Demon Tree shook and made sounds.
“I wonder how many people’s fresh blood can I get to drink tonight… Little tree, are you happy?”
“Gurgle gurgle ——”
“I’m happy too! Two more days and the night of the crimson moon will come again…”
“Swosh swosh——”
“You only have to get through this round to evolve right?”
“Swosh swosh——”
“I know, I will let you eat her. I look forward to your appearance after you evolved.”
“Swosh swosh——”
“Hehe….”
Sima You Yue and Bi Sheng exchanged glances, this was definitely not the person she saw in the day!
“They went to Blood Arena again?”
“Swosh swosh——”
“Just let them play for two more days, they won’t be able to get out of Blood Fiend City anyway.”
“Swosh swosh——”
Blood Demon Tree suddenly became irritable, a lot of leaves fell from the branches and shot towards Sima You Yue’s direction.
They were caught!
Sima You Yue pulled someone and disappeared instantly, the leaves eventually shot the wall, piercing into it ruthlessly.
With this strength, if it was shot on somebody, they would be seriously injured.
“Someone’s there?” Li Zhi put down the cup of blood.
“Swosh swosh——”
“You didn’t even find out and they could escape from your trap, it looks like the strength of these people who came here aren’t low.” He said heavily.
“Swosh swosh——”
Nevermind.
“Really?”
“Swosh swosh——”
“Yeah maybe, they can escape your trap this time round but they can’t escape Blood Fiend City.”
Sima You Yue and the rest appeared outside of the City Lord’s house, the moment when they got found out, she used a spatial blink and brought them out.
“Now that we see it, the City Lord’s house definitely has something going on.” Sima You Yue continued, “Blood Arena there too, if not that tree wouldn’t know so clearly.”
“But how did it know?”
“That tree…” Wu La Mai frowned, “I think I have seen it before.”
“Godfather seen it before?” Sima You Yue looked at Wu La Mai curiously.
“I have been to an immortal land and seen a tree like that. But that was long ago, estimated two thousands over years ago.” Wu La Mai reminisced, “Because I have seen it in immortal land, that’s why it’s more memorable.”
“Inside immortal land?”
“Yes. That time I followed my King Father and the rest inside, I heard from my King Father that it’s a demon tree, normally this kind of demon tree shouldn’t be in the human realm.”
“Demon tree?”
“Mm, I don’t think I recognised it wrongly.” Wu La Mai said.
“Shouldn’t demon trees belong to the devil realm?” Sima You Yue questioned, “How could it grow that big in the human realm?”
“I don’t know. What I am more curious about is, how did it leave the immortal land.” Wu La Mai said.
“Why?”
“Although the human,devil and ghost realm can go to immortal land, going back to the place where they came from is immortal land’s rule. How did it break the rule?” Wu La Mai said.
“Could it be through a contract?” Sima You Yue asked, “Coming here through a contract with a human shouldn’t be tied up from the rule.”
That was how Little Flowey followed the human realm. But Little Flowey wasn’t counted as a restricted living thing, it could live in any realm.
Wu La Mai shaked his head, “Immortal land and Little Realm is different, you can’t make a contract with anything in the immortal land.”
“That’s weird.” Sima You Yue said, “This demon tree definitely did something to get here.”
“If it’s a demon tree, it’s normal if it sucks and eats human’s flesh and blood.” Bi Sheng said.
“That’s right.”
“But it doesn’t match what the devils will do.” Bi Sheng continued, “If they are here, wouldn’t they massacre? But why did it use Blood Arena? It’s too slow.”
“Heavenly law punishment.” Wu La Mai said, “For a demon tree like this, if they were to massacre in the human realm, or bring disaster to humans, they will get the heavenly law punishment. If they get attention from Lightning tribulation, they will get striked and dispersed into ashes and dissolving smoke. Afterall, they are the biggest jinx of Lighting tribulation!”
Sima You Yue thought of Mo Sha, when they initially killed people in the human realm, did he also get striked by Cloud Spirits.
“Normal people in the realm are vulnerable, they get protected from intruders of other realm’s living things. The more powerful the living thing is, the more they are afraid of attention.” Bi Sheng said.
Sima You Yue slanted her lips and thought that this wasn’t accurate, the other time when people from the ghost realm killed so many people in the human realm, she didn’t see anyone from Heaven protecting the weak?
“We have been found out, we can’t go back, are we going back now?” Bi Sheng asked, “Or do you guys want to search other places?”
“I want to see what’s below the demon tree.” Sima You Yue said.
“Going underground?”
“Yes.” Sima You Yue said, “There are ground elements that can protect us, so they won’t spot us so easily.”
“That will work.” Wu La Mai said, “But the root of the demon tree is complicated and tricky, when we go down please be careful.”
“You have spiritual energy for ground attributes?” Bi Sheng asked.
Didn’t Shi Chen they all said she was fire attributes?
“Yes.” Sima You Yue answered, “Let’s go, we will go down and see.”
Three of them materialised a protective barrier, Sima You Yue materialised spiritual energy of the ground attributes and went inside the ground, the ground was softened and opened up a circle.
After they jumped down, the soil around them automatically moved to both sides. Not long after they went down, they saw many tree roots.
“This should be the Blood Demon Tree’s roots, so flourish!” Sima You Yue sighed.
“There are still a lot that extend to the outside.” Bi Sheng pointed to those thicker roots, extending from the middle to all sides.
“These should be extended to different places in the city.” Bi Sheng guessed.
“Should be. How about we followed one of the roots to see how far it goes.” Sima You Yue suggested, “We will follow the direction to Blood Arena and check it out.”
“Okay.”
They tried to distinguish the direction to Blood Arena, not long after they walked, they realised one of the main roots extended to that direction, it should be the root that they wanted to find.
They followed the direction to Blood Arena, in the middle, the root branched out another root towards the outside, but the main root was still straight ahead, just that it became thinner.
“With the distance, Blood Arena should be on top.” Bi Sheng said.
“Guys, look!” Sima You Yue shouted softly and suddenly pointed to the front.
