Flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters during the day is countless times more dangerous than at night.

The latitude near Liangjie Mountain is high, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the concealment of night is gone, so the view is unobstructed.

Chu Yao was very careful in his investigation and it took him several times longer than usual to reach Hua Niang.

"Hua Niang, there won't be any problem, right?"

When they were almost there, Chu Yao asked casually.

The situation between humans and alien races is now tense, which also means great danger for the independent cultivators in the middle of these battles.

Like the Silver Wolf, he chose to grease his feet in advance.

And Flower Lady...

Since Ji Tiancai can find it, there is no guarantee that other alien forces will find it.

If she "betrayed" the past, she would be walking into a trap.

Lu Hongzhuang took a deep breath.

After a moment of silence.

"I can't guarantee it, so be careful."

She began to speak.

Although she had a good relationship with Hua Niang, Lu Hongzhuang really couldn't guarantee it because people's hearts were hidden.

"Um."

Chu Yao nodded.

So the two of them followed the previous route and headed straight for Hua Niang's territory.

Before reaching the location, Chu Yao subconsciously stopped and looked at it from a distance.

Something happened.

Thick white smoke rose up, as if there was a big fire, and it could be clearly seen even from a long distance.

A little closer, the view becomes clearer.

It's a raging fire.

The hidden flower valley where Hua Niang is located has now been completely turned into a scorched earth. It can be seen that the fire has been burning for a long time.

The flower valley that was once full of flowers has been burned to ashes.

What are burning now are the towering trees on the periphery that have been growing for who knows how many years.

"I'll go check it out!"

Lu Hongzhuang's pupils shrank, and she immediately spoke, entered invisible mode, and ran forward first.

Chu Yao remained silent.

I followed suit, but kept a distance.

The two men advanced cautiously. They didn't find any enemies along the way, but all they saw was ashes.

until……

Reached the center of the fire, where the cabin was previously located.

The once magnificent flower valley was completely gone, leaving only a large tree more than ten meters thick that had been burned to charcoal in its place.

Lu Hongzhuang walked over, reached out and gently wiped the charcoal. After a moment of silence, she said softly, "It's a peach tree."

The real body of Hua Niang is a peach tree.

I don't know how many years it has survived.

Looking at the current situation...

Obviously, the charcoal in front of him is most likely her.

Of course, it is not ruled out that she is trying to escape by abandoning her original body.

The spirits of plants and trees do have their own unique ways of survival and life-preservation.

Lu Hongzhuang was like a detective, walking around the big peach tree that had been burned to charcoal, searching for clues.

Behind the tree, she found a huge hole. The core area of ​​the entire tree was completely hollowed out. Judging from the traces left behind, it was split open and taken away by external force.

"The peach wood heart was taken away. If nothing unexpected happens, Hua Niang should be gone."

Lu Hongzhuang's voice was inevitably low.

The core of the spirit of plants is the wood core and the root system.

With a certain level of skill, the roots can still move, and even if they are cut off, they can continue to regenerate.

But if the wood core is plundered, then you are basically dead.

Even if the old tree can bloom new flowers, it will completely lose its intelligence and become an ordinary tree.

Chu Yao looked at the shocking marks inside the tree, expressionless, and nodded.

"Let's go."

Chu Yao said with a long sigh.

There weren't any major emotional fluctuations.

Chu Yao had already figured out the issue of death. Everyone will die, and anyone can die at any time, including himself.

Along the way, he has seen too much death.

The two were about to leave...

From a pile of ashes still emitting residual heat, a wrinkled black vine slowly emerged, like a scorched black snake.

At the top of the vine is a small flower.

The petals were stained with a lot of wood ash, making them dirty and gray, and the moisture had wilted a lot, completely unlike their previous bright and beautiful appearance.

Chu Yao recognized it.

It's this little flower.

The one that led me there before and could talk.

It said, "Aiya, you have touched the heart of the people."

Unexpectedly, it survived.

It crawled out from the ashes and climbed onto Lu Hongzhuang's ankle, climbing up in a twisting manner and making unclear syllables.

“Help…Help…”

Lu Hongzhuang leaned over and held it in her palm.

No one knows what material this flower is made of or what species it is, but it actually has a spirit and can make sounds, making it a living being.

Palm.

The closed petals of the small flower opened, revealing the heart of the flower.

And in the heart of the flower, there is a pink peach blossom, emitting some kind of spiritual fluctuation.

In the blink of an eye.

Peach blossoms rise.

Hua Niang's shadow, voice, appearance and smile emerged.

"I can't run away. I'm being watched. Goodbye, Lu Hongzhuang, goodbye Chu Yao."

"I just got some big news. Five hundred Night Demons have entered the human territory, and their target is Tongtian Lake. As for what they are going to do specifically, I don't know."

"My last wish: After the ancient gods are extinct, please plant a willow tree next to me."

A calm voice.

A faint smile.

Then all the images turned into spots of light and disappeared completely.
