Hearing Fang Xiu's cold and almost ruthless words, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Some people dare not speak out in anger, completely forgetting that they would not be alive today without Fang Xiu.
Some people agree with Fang Xiu's reasoning, believing that people who have no value don't need to live.
Some people frowned, feeling that Fang Xiu was too cold-hearted and that human life should not be measured by value.
However, all of this had nothing to do with Fang Xiu; he never needed to explain his actions to others throughout his life.
He doesn't care what others think, as long as these people obey him.
Fortunately, Fang Xiu had accumulated considerable prestige along the way. Some people were wary of his unpredictable killings, while others wanted to use his ability to foresee the future to survive. Whatever their motives, at least for now, everyone obeyed him.
A group of people rushed toward the peach tree with its twisted, human-faced form, contorted with pain.
Upon seeing this, the peach tree with the human face let out a mournful roar, followed by its branches trembling wildly and its leaves rustling.
Bang bang bang...
One after another, the peaches with human faces fell from the tree, smashing into a puddle of peach flesh.
But the next second, the peach puree suddenly began to expand, churning and surging, and transformed into people!
These people had deathly pale skin, their arms hanging limply, and their waists twisted unnaturally, as if they had no bones at all.
roar!
The pale-faced people surged towards the group of spirit masters like a tidal wave.
As they rushed towards us, their pale skin suddenly swelled up, splitting open to reveal thick branches with lush green leaves, and even vines like pythons.
In an instant, these pale-faced people seemed to transform into countless humanoid trees, waving their branches and vines as they attacked the crowd.
The group of spirit masters had solemn expressions, but they were not to be outdone. They each activated their abilities and began to kill.
The person with the ability to freeze instantly froze several humanoid peach trees in front of them. The moment they were frozen, Shen Lingxue's flames roared in.
They were transformed into burning human-shaped torches, accompanied by continuous, mournful screams.
At this moment, Shen Lingxue's ability did indeed play a significant role, as fire counters wood.
However, everyone was clearly too optimistic. The humanoid peach trees were incredibly resilient. Even though they were engulfed in flames and screaming pitifully, they were still alive and even attacked the group with their flaming branches.
Caught off guard, two spirit masters were immediately sent flying, their bodies engulfed in flames. Had it not been for timely intervention, they would likely have been burned to death on the spot.
Shen Lingxue was stunned. She never expected that her flames would not only have no effect, but would instead give the enemy a fire buff.
"Miss Shen, please stop your supernatural powers." The fat man hurriedly advised.
Shen Lingxue's face was as still as water. She silently extinguished the flames, took out her short sword, and began to fight the humanoid peach tree in close combat.
Her dagger was also made of Mind Steel, but the blade was rather dark in color, so it was clearly not 100% pure Mind Steel.
A chaotic battle ensued.
Everyone was fighting hard, except for Fang Xiu, Zhao Hao, and the fat man who did not make a move.
Fang Xiu refrained from taking action because he wanted to conserve his spiritual energy and keep a close eye on the movements of the mother peach tree.
Zhao Hao and Fatty were basically there to create atmosphere, cheering each other on from the sidelines.
Oh, no, the real atmosphere-building team only consisted of Zhao Hao, who was hiding behind Fang Xiu, cheering everyone on.
At least the fat man was saving people. Whenever he saw someone about to collapse, he would light a bronze candlestick and teleport to that person's side to block an attack for them.
The situation reached a stalemate, but then the real human-faced peach tree suddenly roared, seemingly finally recovering from the pain.
Although it avoided death by using a substitution technique, the residual pain from Fang Xiu's attack still caused it unbearable agony.
"How dare you hurt me! You deserve to die!"
Suddenly, the peach tree with the human face moved. It grew taller and faster, its branches spreading out like a spider web, gradually enveloping the entire peach orchard.
Then he rose from the ground, and in an instant the floor shattered into dust. Countless roots were pulled from the soil, twisting and turning like braids, transforming into two thick thighs.
Thus, a giant peach tree in the shape of a human was born.
It was ten times taller than those human-faced peaches that had transformed into human-shaped trees!
Upon seeing this colossal creature, the spirit masters felt a chill in their hearts, and a sense of insignificance arose spontaneously within them.
Fang Xiu frowned slightly as he looked at the enormous creature before him. Dealing with it without using his spiritual power was indeed quite troublesome.
But he decided to give it a try, using his supernatural abilities to manipulate the sharpness of the scalpel in order to fight it.
But just as he was about to make his move, ring ring...
The alarm went off!
The alarm clock came from behind him.
Then, a familiar scene unfolded.
Fang Xiu felt a pat on the shoulder, followed by a deep and magnetic voice in his ear.
"Brother Hugh, please move aside."
Then, a handsome man walked out from behind Fang Xiu. He had the height of a model, the muscles of a bodybuilder, fair and firm skin, a resolute and sunny face, and a slicked-back hairstyle.
It was Zhao Hao after his transformation.
With his hands in his pockets, he walked towards the real human-faced peach tree, seemingly oblivious to the existence of any opponent.
He traversed the battlefield, passing by one spirit master after another.
The spirit masters were fighting several humanoid peach trees, locked in a fierce battle, when suddenly they noticed a light in the corner of their eyes—a light powerful enough to dispel the fog and gloom.
