"No, Mom!"
Hua Xiu Ning shouted. She wasn't stupid; she knew what Qu Shi Heng wanted her mother to do.
Hua Xiu Ning was really angry this time.
She glared fiercely at Qu Shiheng, who was holding her, and said, "I hate you, I hate you!"
Many people say she's a fool, but for such a fool, her mother was able to raise her hand and stab herself in the heart without the slightest hesitation.
Hua Xiu Ning could no longer hold back. She screamed, just as Hua Mi's sharp knife was about to pierce her heart.
Hua Mi's wrist was hooked by a vine that appeared out of nowhere, and the sharp knife in the hand only entered Hua Mi's heart a little bit, the tip of the knife just barely piercing Hua Mi's clothes.
Hua Mi stared in shock at the vines gripping her wrist, then looked behind Qu Shiheng.
Seeing that Hua Mi was about to stab herself to death, Qu Shiheng urged her urgently, "Hurry up and stab yourself! Didn't you hear me? Stab yourself in the heart, and I'll release your daughter. Hurry up, or else I'll..."
He felt as if a shadow was rising behind him. Qu Shiheng turned his head to look, but there was no waterfall behind him.
A large number of vines grew behind him.
The waterfall-like vines seemed to have a mind of their own, stretching and twisting behind Qu Shiheng, forming a giant dragon made of vines.
Humans are far too insignificant in the face of such power. Taking advantage of this moment, Hua Mi lunged at Hua Xiu Ning, still holding the sharp knife in her hand as she stabbed at Qu Shi Heng, while holding Hua Xiu Ning's small body in her other hand.
The two fought over a child in this place where mutated vines were flying everywhere.
Qu Shiheng was bleeding profusely, but he couldn't care less about the mutated vines that had suddenly appeared around him. He raised his hand and slapped a large ball of fire onto Hua Mi's face.
"Don't you dare hurt my mother, you bad person!!!"
Hua Xiu Ning screamed, and a giant flower grew from Hua Mi's feet, its petals enveloping her and her mother.
Qu Shiheng struck the petal with the ball of fire in his hand, burning most of the delicate petal.
However, it doesn't matter, Hua Xiu Ning still has many, many flower seeds in her hands.
She glanced back at Qu Shiheng, and one flower after another bloomed in the air. Compared to that ball of fire, these flowers were more radiant and enchanting.
Hua Mi was shocked to see this scene. She and Hua Xiu Ning were standing in the mutated flower stamen that had been burned by more than half of it, but petals continued to grow and protect her and Hua Xiu Ning.
Qu Shiheng wasn't so lucky. The mutated vines wrapped around him, and no matter how much he burned them, the mutated petals kept growing.
However, his supernatural energy was limited, and soon Qu Shiheng discovered that the crystal core on his body was gone.
Standing at a distance, Boss Gong tossed a bag of crystal cores in his hand and said to Qin Jianqiang with a grin, "How about my ability to retrieve things from a distance? Stealing something is a piece of cake for me, isn't it?"
Qin Jianqiang immediately fawned over him, looking at Boss Gong with eyes full of admiration, "Boss, you're the best, Boss, you're the most powerful, Boss is even more powerful than my sister."
Gong Laoda smiled modestly and waved his hand, "That's still not as impressive as the show my sister put up. Look how scared my dad was."
From a great distance, Gong Yi, filled with worry, had already led the garrison to arrive.
Since the mutated vines that had appeared in the settlement were not harmful at all, and he was worried about his daughter's safety, he could only leave Cao Feng and Tang You to keep a close eye on the situation there, while he rushed over first.
When he arrived, he found that something terrible had happened: his wife and daughter were trapped in a huge sea of mutated tree vines and flowers.
What exactly happened?
Nevertheless, Gong Yi could still tell from his own supernatural abilities that his daughter and wife were still alive and well inside the mutated vines.
The only bad person was Qu Shiheng.
Qu Shiheng's strength was almost completely exhausted. He tried his best to leave the vast sea of mutated vines, but no matter which direction he went, he could not escape the siege of the mutated vines.
Finally, Qu Shiheng couldn't take it anymore, and he shamelessly asked Hua Mi for help.
"You and I are both trapped in this mutated vine and flower. If we don't join forces, you and your daughter won't be able to get out either. What do you think about it?"
"Not considering it."
Hua Mi held Hua Xiu Ning in her arms. Apart from Qu Shi Heng, who was having a particularly difficult time, she and Hua Xiu Ning were doing alright.
Those mutated vines had no intention of harming Hua Mi and Hua Xiu Ning, so why should she accept Qu Shi Heng's suggestion to leave with him?
This mutated vine is only harmful to Qu Shiheng for the time being.
Besides, if Hua Mi wants to leave, can't she just return to the city with one click? Why did she have to cooperate with Qu Shiheng?
Qu Shiheng was somewhat desperate. Despite jumping around, he was still attacked by the mutated vines and was seriously injured.
Then look at Hua Mi, who is completely unharmed, and Hua Xiu Ning, who is only a little dirty but otherwise unharmed.
Qu Shiheng roared, "Aren't you afraid of dying yourselves? Or do these vines only hurt others and not you?"
Upon hearing Qu Shiheng's words, Hua Mi seemed to understand something. She looked down in surprise at her daughter, who was clinging to her in her arms.
Hua Mi asked in a low voice, "Sister, can you control these plants?"
The younger sister blinked, looking at Hua Mi with some timidity, afraid that she had done something wrong and would be hung up and beaten by her mother.
So Hua Mi changed her approach, "Look, Dad is really anxious waiting for us to come home for dinner. Shouldn't we go back early so he won't worry about us?"
Hua Xiu thought that her father would indeed be like that; if anything happened to her, her father would easily become anxious.
Out of concern for her father's gray hair, Hua Xiu Ning obediently nodded. She waved her little hand, and the mutated plants and flowers blocking Hua Mi's way parted like guards, making way for Hua Mi and Hua Xiu Ning.
Hua Mi stared in disbelief. She was now 100% certain that her daughter was a wood-type ability user who could manipulate mutated plants.
I really don't know whether this ability is good or bad.
Hua Mi was once a wood-type ability user. The difference in level among wood-type ability users is based on who can manipulate more and larger plants.
Some wood-type ability users have taken it to the extreme and are even able to manipulate plants to kill people.
But Hua Mi had never heard of anyone as young as her daughter being able to manipulate mutated plants.
And her daughter was even labeled as an idiot by the people in this post-apocalyptic world—those people went a bit too far with their jokes!
