As soon as the brother and sister entered the forest, they immediately felt the temperature drop, and they couldn't help but shiver and look at each other in bewilderment.

Wang Lan immediately said, "There's definitely something strange about this forest."

Sun Muchen nodded. "It would be strange if the temperature dropped so suddenly."

Wang Lan drew the Vajra Umbrella and held it in her hand. "Be careful, stay close to me!"

Sun Muchen rubbed her hands together in front of her, and blue light swirled between her fingers. She said to Wang Lan, "You stay close to me, brother!"

Wang Lan: "???"

Watching Sun Muchen's actions, Wang Lan suddenly remembered the magic defense displayed in the personal information section of the system.

Could it be that Sun Muchen is using magic right now?

Seeing Wang Lan lost in thought, Sun Muchen flicked his hand and sent a beam of blue light towards Wang Lan's forehead. The blue light dissipated and disappeared from Wang Lan's body the instant it touched her forehead.

Wang Lan immediately shuddered.

Sun Muchen said, "You're spacing out, bro, let's go!"

Wang Lan immediately frowned, looking embarrassed.

Damn it!

It feels like I've been humiliated.

Sun Muchen walked ahead.

Wang Lan followed behind.

This doesn't mean that Wang Lan truly acknowledged that Sun Muchen's strength surpassed her own; it's because walking behind allowed her to better protect Sun Muchen without constantly looking back from the front.

The two walked one after the other.

By constantly keeping a close eye on the height and thickness of the trees around you, you can discern the path analyzed by Sun Muchen's theory.

Then…

They got lost...

Sun Muchen looked bewildered. "Why do all these trees look the same?!"

Wang Lan was also completely bewildered.

The two turned to look behind them...

The trees stood in neat rows, their branches and leaves so thick that even the dark clouds in the sky were no longer visible.

As for the way we came from…

There's no way to even begin to discuss it.

Wang Lan sighed, "It's over, there's nowhere left to retreat."

Sun Muchen sighed, "Alas, we're at our wits' end."

Wang Lan rolled her eyes at Sun Muchen, "It's all your fault, why did you have to come here of all people!"

Sun Muchen was taken aback and said incredulously, "You, why are you blaming me?"

Wang Lan stopped arguing with her, looked around for a while, and then said, "Now is not the time to blame anyone. We should not stay here any longer. Let's go back the way we came and see if we can get out."

"Tsk tsk, this place is not suitable for lingering," Sun Muchen muttered, pursing his lips.

But seeing Wang Lan's flushed face, Sun Muchen obediently walked back.

Wang Lan then followed behind him.

The two walked back along the route they remembered. After walking for a while, they found that the trees seemed to be more lush, with branches growing haphazardly and leaves that were even more verdant.

Wang Lan had no choice but to take out the Vajra Umbrella and push the leaves aside to make her view more open. But when the Vajra Umbrella rubbed against the leaves, it made a strange "squeaking" sound.

And on the surface of the umbrella tree that comes into contact with the leaves.

A faint spark appeared.

Wang Lan's eyes widened immediately.

Sun Muchen was also startled by the sound and turned his head to look, only to see Wang Lan staring intently at the leaves.

"What's wrong?"

"Something's not right with these leaves."

Wang Lan answered, then reached out to grab the leaves, but the moment he touched them, he felt a sharp pain in his fingers and quickly withdrew his hand.

Looking down, I saw a tiny cut on my finger.

On the leaf he had just reached for, a drop of blood slid down the edge and fell to the ground.

Sun Muchen exclaimed, "These leaves are so sharp!"

"This road is blocked, let's try another one!"

Wang Lan quickly said that it was fortunate that he was holding the Vajra Umbrella and went forward to scout the way, otherwise if the two of them had continued to walk forward, they would have been scratched all over by these leaves.

After hearing what Wang Lan said, Sun Muchen carefully backed away.

Fortunately, the two were not far apart; otherwise, it would have been too late by the time they realized they had been scratched by the leaves.

After the two met, they moved closer together and looked around. They could no longer tell where they had come from, so they could only follow their instincts and head down a road.

But before they could walk far, Wang Lan quickly grabbed Sun Muchen's hand, "Wait, don't move!"

Sun Muchen immediately stopped.

Wang Lan suddenly felt that the leaves in front of him looked very familiar, just like the extremely sharp leaves he had just encountered. So he took out the Vajra Umbrella and went forward to probe them.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

Sparks erupted from the Vajra Umbrella!

Wang Lan's face immediately turned pale. "Oh no, how did we get back here again!"

Seeing this, Sun Muchen was also thrown into a state of panic.

This forest is truly eerie. Not only do you completely lose your sense of direction, but even the ordinary leaves are as sharp as blades. Being in it really gives you a feeling of having to proceed with extreme caution.

The brother and sister both understood.

Judging from the time they entered the woods, they hadn't gone very far. In other words, the trouble they encountered was only on the outskirts. Who knew what dangers awaited them as they ventured deeper into the woods?

Wang Lan had already raised the Vajra Umbrella and was waving it around. He finally found ordinary trees, which were easily broken by the waving of the Vajra Umbrella.

Wang Lan pointed ahead, "This way!"

"Wait!"

Sun Muchen suddenly called out to Wang Lan.
