After lingering on the edge of reason for a long time, Shen Yunhao ultimately couldn't bring himself to leave like that.
Of course, he wasn't completely thoughtless; rushing headlong into the valley would only cause trouble for others and would be pointless.
He knew very well that only by protecting his own safety could he have a real chance to help Zhuli.
Finally, as long as I can really reunite with Zhuli, then I will have achieved my purpose in coming here... The worst outcome would be to die with Sister Li'er, which is much better than enduring torture alone in Yunchuan City.
The gates to Lingyou Valley were closed, making direct entry impossible. Given Chen Yunhao's cultivation level of the Bronze Skin Realm, finding another way to enter the valley was somewhat unrealistic.
At present, the best solution is actually to find the girl from yesterday, the one with the green vine.
Since she was able to get out of the valley, she should also know how to get back in.
So, after making up his mind to return, Shen Yunhao went to the woods where he had met Qing Teng the night before.
However, when he arrived at the woods, he was startled by what he saw.
"It looks like there was just a battle here!"
The lush forest that was still there last night is now littered with broken branches and wood chips, many trees are snapped in half, and the whole place is a mess, clearly having suffered some degree of damage.
Seeing this, Shen Yunhao took out the steel sword from behind him and held it in his hand, becoming alert to his surroundings.
After taking two steps forward, he suddenly noticed a clump of viscous, bright green liquid remaining on a thick tree trunk, emitting a nauseating odor.
The liquid appeared to be corrosive, corroding entire sections of the tree trunk.
"Is this... someone using poison in the woods?"
Shen Yunhao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and continued walking forward.
However, he did not show much fear towards these residual poisons...
...
At the same time, just a few miles ahead, two figures were chasing and fleeing in the dense forest!
Ahead, fleeing, was a woman completely concealed in a gray robe. Light as a feather, she swiftly swept through the forest, leaving a faint afterimage.
And chasing after her was a little girl in a green dress!
The girl looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, but her youthful face was filled with determination.
"Damn the Demonic Sect, I'll definitely kill you!"
The girl was none other than Qing Teng, the girl Shen Yunhao had met just last night!
And at this moment, she is actually chasing after a member of the Demonic Sect...
Although the woman in front was agile, every now and then a vine would suddenly emerge from the woods to attack and block her.
Although she managed to dodge each time, this greatly reduced her speed advantage, making it impossible for her to shake off the green vines chasing behind her.
"What an annoying little devil! I've actually gotten myself entangled with this little brat..."
Ling frowned, her expression somewhat helpless.
She was originally sent by Mu Shuangshuang to scout out the situation and find the secret door to Lingyou Valley.
He had been searching all day but hadn't found the hidden door. Instead, he was suddenly attacked by vines in the woods, and then the little girl jumped out and chased after him.
To be honest, she didn't want to fight with this girl.
After all, this little girl is from Lingyou Valley, and they are not currently in a hostile relationship.
Moreover, what Mu Shuangshuang least wanted to see was the Azure Vein falling into Teng Kui's hands. If Lingyou Valley could protect the Azure Vein with its own strength, it would save them a lot of effort.
Furthermore, this little girl may look young, but she is a genuine Soul Condensation Realm cultivator. With the help of the forest terrain, even if a fight breaks out, Lingmu may not be able to gain the upper hand.
Unexpectedly, this little girl, for some unknown reason, harbored a grudge against her and relentlessly pursued her... well, relentlessly pursued her in a physical sense.
He looked so bitter and resentful, which annoyed her to no end.
"Looks like we still need to find a way to get rid of this little vixen... being pestered like this isn't a solution!"
Thinking of this, she suddenly saw a small clearing in the dense forest not far ahead.
As her thoughts raced, Ling's eyes swept across the open space.
...
Behind him, Qing Teng relentlessly pursued the gray-robed figure ahead.
She encountered a great calamity in the valley and was sent out by her sister to save her life. However, the homeland that gave her birth and raised her was in grave crisis, and she could not bear to live on alone...
So she decided to return to the valley tonight when the Demon Sect attacks Bamboo Fortress, and defend it with everyone until the very last moment...
Even if we die in battle, it is nothing to fear!
Unexpectedly, they encountered this sneaky disciple of the Demonic Sect before nightfall.
She could sense that the other party was also a demon, but now that Lingyou Valley had suffered this calamity, it was all thanks to the Demon Sect. How could she not hate them when she saw someone from the Demon Sect?
So... that's how things turned out.
One had no intention of fighting and only wanted to escape, while the other was filled with hatred and chased after him relentlessly!
At that moment, Qing Teng saw the other person running towards an open space, and naturally, he chased after them without hesitation...
However, just as she reached the center of the open space, the ground suddenly trembled, and several eerie, giant spikes emerged from the ground and swung at her.
At the same time, a large spider web descended from the sky and enveloped her!
The girl seemed completely unprepared for the ambush that the other party could set up in such a short time. She barely dodged the spikes underground, but was then trapped by the spider web above.
At this moment, the spikes disappeared, and Lingmu appeared, slapping the green vines that were bound by the spider web with a powerful palm strike!
Bound by the spider silk, the green vine was unable to move and could only be struck solidly by the palm.
"Little brat, you're really asking for trouble..."
However, just as that palm struck "Green Vine", Lingmu's expression changed.
The "green vine" in front of them shattered and broke into pieces after being hit by this palm strike!
"This is... a wooden puppet!"
Lingmu realized she had been tricked and instinctively backed away.
"Hmph! Trying to run now? Ten Thousand Vine Formation!"
Dozens of giant, green vines, each as thick as a person, suddenly sprouted from the previously empty forest clearing and began to coil around Lingmu in the center.
Lingmu, whose new strength had not yet been generated, was completely enveloped by those giant vines before she could react.
Countless vines coiled upwards, forming a giant vine ball around Lingmu in the center of the open space.
"Serves you right!"
At this moment, the little girl in the green dress also emerged from the woods behind, her face cold: "This is the consequence of invading my Spirit Valley!"
Qing Teng walked to the vine ball in the middle of the open space. A sharp spear made of vines appeared in her slender hand. She raised her hand towards the vine ball, intending to use a heart-piercing stab.
Before he could throw the vine spear, Qing Teng suddenly sensed something, his expression darkened, and he abruptly retreated.
The next moment, the sepak takraw seemed to be subjected to a tremendous impact and exploded!
As the smoke cleared, a giant green spider, the size of a truck, was exposed to the air, hissing!
