The reason why the Forest of Vengeful Spirits is so dangerous that even cultivators do not easily enter is because it is a forest where resentment gathers. Every plant and tree in it is tainted with resentment. As long as the resentment exists, it can be reborn infinitely, which cannot be completely eliminated. The only solution is to seal it.
But this does not include... destroying the entire forest!
Little Flame was always a well-behaved little creature, but Youyou never expected it to be so ruthless when it went berserk, almost as fierce as Feng Rong, perhaps even surpassing her in some ways, not even sparing her. By the time Youyou came to her senses, the entire forest had been burned to a crisp, riddled with craters. Was it really the same person as Feng Rong?
Wu Yue also chopped down many trees. Although she couldn't wipe out the forest with her fire like Xiao Huomiao, she was, after all, a celestial maiden with many magical treasures. Each tree she smashed could kill most of the forest.
On the contrary, Youyou became the only teammate who won without lifting a finger. It wasn't that she didn't want to help, but the two of them acted too quickly and were in a fit of anger, so she couldn't stop them.
Youyou had no idea that the little flame actually possessed the ability to summon its true form at any time. After confirming that it had only consumed some energy and was indeed fine, she quickly sent it back into its egg to rest. The little flame was indeed tired, but before returning to its egg, it made sure to press close to her face, emitting a faint red light that healed the small wound on her face, before flying back into its egg.
"Let me see!" Wu Yue also came closer, cupped her face and examined it carefully for a long time before letting out a sigh of relief. She looked like she had just escaped a disaster and said, "Thank goodness, you're healed. I was so worried about you. You can't get hurt again!"
"..." No, are you worried about me, or my face?!
You You was speechless. She turned to look at the vast expanse of scorched earth around her, and the enormous phoenix egg in front of her. So the question was... how was she going to get Feng Rong back?
"What's this egg? Is it your new fire-type spirit beast?" The little flame couldn't speak, so Wu Yue always assumed it was a spell she used, and naturally thought she had released the egg.
"I guess so?" Youyou's lips twitched. She looked down at her spirit beast pouch. Should she be able to squeeze in Feng Rong if she squeezed a bit? It's so big, she had no choice. Anyway, Little Flame and Qiu Zhang had both squeezed into this pouch before. She could understand when Feng Rong woke up. She wouldn't get angry... right?
You You sighed and was about to step forward to put Feng Rong into the bag.
A somewhat shocked voice suddenly rang out, "Little sister! What are you doing here?"
Turning his head, he saw a large group of people, more than a dozen in total, suddenly flying in from the sky not far away. They were all wearing uniform robes and were of fairly high rank. Leading the group was a man whose appearance looked somewhat familiar. Although not as stunning as Yuan Qi and Feng Rong, he was still quite handsome. However, his eyes revealed a vulgar glint, giving him an impression of being calculating and shrewd, which detracted from his good looks.
"Big brother..." Wu Yue called out subconsciously, her face instantly falling and her brows furrowing tightly.
He was originally Wu Yue's brother. Does he look familiar? It turns out he looks somewhat similar to her.
The group of people flew over hurriedly and landed in front of the two. Except for the man in the lead, the others all bowed down to Wu Yue and said, "Greetings, Sect Master!"
Wu Yue's brows furrowed even deeper, as if she was extremely unwilling to see them.
"Little sister!" The leading man strode over, not only without bowing but also pulling Wu Yue aside with a hint of reproach, saying, "Little sister, how could you leave the sect and wander around like this? Do you know how worried we were and how much effort we put into finding you?"
"I just wanted to get out and clear my head!" Wu Yue replied, lowering her head slightly.
“The Xuan Guang Sect is so big, there’s nowhere you can’t relax, why did you have to come out?” The man seemed used to it, and continued to accuse, “Do you know how dangerous it is outside? What if you encounter some bad people…” As he spoke, he looked up and scrutinized You You, his face full of accusation, “And who are you?”
“True Yan Sect, You You.” You You replied.
“You…” The man was taken aback, as if he had thought of something. His eyes, which had been somewhat contemptuous just now, suddenly widened. This time, he hurriedly clasped his hands and bowed. “So it is You Tiannv. I am Wu Qi of the Wu family. I greet Your Majesty the Heavenly Maiden!” When Wu Yue was choosing her relatives, he did not go to Chengtian Pavilion, so he did not know You You, who was born at the same time as Wu Yue. However, the other party’s name was very familiar to him.
"Mm." You nodded in response.
"I never expected that You Tiannv would be exploring this secret realm with my little sister. What a coincidence." Wu Qi smiled awkwardly, his expression shifting several times. He glanced at the scorched earth, then at the enormous egg behind the two of them. A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and he smiled even more politely, saying, "Is this... the treasure you two have obtained on this trip?"
She frowned, about to answer, when Wu Yue spoke up first, "Big brother, we didn't find this egg; it originally belonged to her spirit beast."
“Little sister, I know you’re always modest, but you can’t just give up everything.” Wu Qi glanced at Wu Yue, then turned to look at the egg with a gleam in his eyes, as if he couldn’t wait to put it into his spirit beast pouch.
These people didn't actually come here after discovering that Wu Yue was here. They just happened to be nearby, noticed the commotion, and saw flames shooting into the sky. They assumed that some extraordinary treasure had appeared, so they rushed over.
The fact that it could cause such a huge commotion, even turning the entire forest into scorched earth, shows the power of what caused it all. In particular, the numerous round pits on the ground were clearly caused by that egg.
