Lu Nange could hear her own heartbeat, slow and heavy, as if she were buried in the silt of the deep sea.
She could only move her eyeballs, and so could everyone else.
In my field of vision, there was only that ever-approaching patch of purple lightning, and that ball of light hovering overhead...
Is this the end...?
An almost arrogant sense of defiance exploded from the depths of everyone's hearts.
On what grounds?
Why should they die?!
Why should some unknown entity be able to decide their life or death?
Just as this thought was about to consume his consciousness—"Chirp..."
A sound so faint it was almost imperceptible.
Like the sound of the first snowflake melting in spring, like the sound of seeds stirring in the frozen soil...
Lu Nange felt something moving on her wrist.
It's Zhi Zhi.
The vine that had been quietly wrapped around Lu Beiye and Wen Qing's wrist after they were brought down suddenly split open on the main stem.
It's not cracking, it's blossoming.
A pure white flower slowly peeks out from the crack.
The flowers bloom in a flash, with a whoosh!
All the vines extending from the main trunk suddenly grew rapidly!
They grew as thick as arms, with thousands upon thousands of vines intertwining and weaving...
A green shield that blots out the sky forms in front of Lu Nange and her group!
Then, it met the spreading lightning of the Black Tyrant head-on and crashed into it.
Sizzle!
The vines did not explode upon contact with the lightning; instead, they dissolved.
With each vine that disappears, a patch of lightning dims.
At the same time, emerald green light surged wildly from the heart of that little white flower!
The light flowed along the vines, passing over Lu Nange's body, over Lu Beiye's clenched fist, and over Chi Yanzhou's wrist...
Flowing through all the superhumans wrapped in vines...
[Master... Zhizhi, I'm here to save you...Master...Zhi...Zhi...is here...]
Zhizhi's voice grew weaker and weaker. Lu Nange saw that the emerald green stem wrapped around her wrist began to wither and decay...
Every inch of green on the main stem is fading rapidly, revealing the withered yellow core underneath.
The withered yellow quickly turned charred black.
Finally, it turned into tiny, star-studded dust particles and drifted away from her wrist.
“Branch…branch…” Lu Nange squeezed out broken syllables from her throat.
She tried desperately to turn her head to see the main trunk of the branches, but her neck felt rusty, and she could only turn it a little bit with difficulty.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Lu Beiye standing just three steps away from her.
The child bit his lower lip so hard that it bled, and the veins on his forehead bulged from the excessive force.
Those eyes, which always held a hint of stubbornness, were now bloodshot as they stared at the dissipating vines.
"Branch...branch!"
Lu Xici was on her other side, watching the vines dissipate. His extreme anger caused every muscle in his face to twitch.
Wen Qing was crying; tears streamed down her pale cheeks like beads from a broken string.
But her hands were desperately trying to close, trying to grasp the dissipating vines and gather the healing light...
Chi Yanzhou, Shi Xu, He Zhuo, Luo Xingyou, Ji Xian, Gu Qi, Gu Wan, Chi Yi...every single one of them.
I saw the vines withering rapidly, and I saw the vines that were constantly being destroyed in order to protect them.
"Branch...branch..."
Seeing that its energy accumulation was being blocked by the branches, the black orb of light was about to start accumulating energy again when...
