Chapter 542 - Many-faced Tree

“There is a smell of living people!”

The black shadow finally stretched out the body completely. It was a huge black tree with a height of several tens of meters, shrouding Su Li and Su Buwang in a shadow.

Suddenly, a bright sword light lit up out of thin air, penetrating from behind the huge black tree.

Fang Yuan was behind the black tree, and his expressionchanged slightly. He clearly stabbed it, but why did he feel like he stabbed in the air?

“Hahaha, how dare you attack me, little bug...”

Hundreds of distorted human faces suddenly appeared on the giant tree. Thousands of black eyes opened at the same time, and it was so disgusting that Su Buwang would almost throw up when he saw that.

“Sister, what is this? It looks so ugly!”

As soon as he said it, the faces of the tree which was still looking for Fang Yuan stopped all at once, and then all these eyes fell on Su Buwang immediately.

“Eh?”

Su Buwang was stunned. For some reason, his mind suddenly went blank and he couldn’t move.

“You idiot, run!”

The words Fang Yuan transmitted sounded crazily in Su Buwang’s ears, but because of it, a flaw of Fang Yuanshowed. When he realized, his feet were entangled in a black vine.

In a flash, the vine slammed fiercely—

Boom!

Fang Yuan was smashed into the desert like a meteor!

“Uncle Fang!”

After coming to his sense and seeing what happened, Su Buwang was so anxious. But before he moved, he felt he was already in mid-air.

Boom!

The vines scattered from the place where he was standing, and there was an extraordinarily large pit, which made Su Buwang startled in a cold sweat.

“Little bug, how dare you say I am ugly!”

The ghostly voice came out from the hundreds of mouths, and countless black vines shot from them. Even if Su Buwang hadn’t been touched by the cold breath of those vines, he couldn’t help shuddering.

“Uncle Fang...”

Su Buwang was still too weak. In front of such a monster, he could only wait to die. But even if he couldn’t avoid it, he was still thinking about Fang Yuan’s safety.

Suddenly, he vaguely heard a sneer.

The dense black vines stopped at the same time. Then the Many-faced Tree looked at Su Li, who didn’t have the sense of existence before.

Just a glance at her made the Many-faced Tree instantly horrified!

“How come...Lord Hong Baizhu is still alive?!”

Rumble—

The huge Many-faced Tree suddenly began to dig into the ground frantically. At this moment, it even regretted arrogantly exposing its entire body. Now it was too troublesome to escape!

Su Li watched the Many-faced Tree escape calmly. The eyes with blood and tears behind her hid.

“Master, I want to eat...”

Su Li’s eyes narrowed, “Give you time of three breaths. It scared my son Su Buwang, so it shouldn’t be alive. Got it?”

“Yes.”

Sensing the cruel mood in Su Li’s words, the little girl left tremblingly. After three breaths, pneuma of the Many-faced Tree who had escaped into the ground really disappeared. The little girl did not run around, but returned to the Cang Lei’s Cave.

“Her pneuma has become even more annoying again.”

On the other side of Cang Lei’s Cave, Su Bai touched his hungry stomach and sighed, “Sister, I want to eat delicious food, too.”

“Did it escape?”

Su Buwang blinked. Although he did not know what had happened, it was not difficult to guess that the escape of the Many-faced Tree must be related to this sister who was reluctant to reveal her name.

“Oh, Uncle Fang!”

Before he could think more about it, Su Buwang immediately rushed to the place where Fang Yuan was smashed and pushed aside the hot sand with both hands.

Su Li walked closer. With a wave of her hand, a lot of sand was pushed aside, exposing Fang Yuan. Su Buwang quickly held Fang Yuan with difficulty, which made him flushed.

“Damn, Uncle Fang looks so thin, but why is he so heavy!”

“Your body is too weak, Brother Su. Let me do it.”

Su Buwang saw the woman in front of him carrying Fang Yuan who was in a coma with one hand. He couldn’t help feeling a little dazed. For the first time, he doubted whether Uncle Fang made too few training plans for him.

Su Li gently placed Fang Yuan on the ground. After she checked for a while, her frowning eyebrows suddenly loosened.

“There is no big problem. He has been poisoned by the ghost. With the self-healing ability of his body, he will soon wake up. If he hadn’t worried about you, he wouldn’t have exposed himself.”

Listening to what she said, Su Buwang breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn’t help blaming himself. He whispered bitterly, “Uncle Fang gave me the protective treasure. I’m good for nothing.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Li chuckled and couldn’t help touching Su Buwang’s hair. She said warmly, “You are still young, and you are not to blame for this. Now that you understand the importance of strength, you should practice hard and don’t disappoint Uncle Fang, okay?”

Su Buwang stood in a daze. He obediently let Su Li touch his hair and not dared to move.

He never had...this feeling before.

“If my mom is at my side, would she often touch my hair, whisper to me, care about me, and teach me?”

Thinking about it, Su Buwang felt that tears came to his eyes. With embarrassment on his small face, he lowered his head.

“It’s good enough to see you grew up healthily like this.”

Su Li thought to herself. She smiled and withdrew her hand, “I have cast a spell on your Uncle Fang to lighten his weight. Put him on your back. We should enter the Yin and Yang Region.”

Su Buwang dried his eyes silently. When he looked up in the direction Su Li was pointing, he was amazed.

A twisted crack appeared there, and the appearance of the city inside could be vaguely seen.

“When did that appear?”

Su Buwang was thinking with confusion. After carrying Fang Yuan on his back, he followed behind Su Li and stepped into the crack.

...

After a period of darkness.

Fang Yuan’s frowning brows moved. He opened his eyes suddenly, and straightened up like a zombie.

Su Buwang, who looked after Fang Yuan, jumped up with fright. Although Su Buwang’s expression was exaggerated, he became calmer.

“Uncle Fang, you finally woke up! That elder sister was right. It’s only four hours.”

Fang Yuan looked carefully at Su Buwang. When he saw that Su Buwang was not injured, he felt a great relief. Then he had time to look around.

It was a nicely decorated room.

“Where are we?”

“Of course, it is the Yin and Yang Region!”

Su Buwang sat down again, “Uncle Fang, after you were beaten by that ugly monster, that sister battled so hard with the ugly monster that the sky and the earth were torn apart. The sun and the moon were dull...”

“Don’t beat about the bush.”

Fang Yuan was angry but also laughed. This kid nearly died, but he could still joke now. Just by looking at his expression, Fang Yuan knew that this kid was talking nonsense again.

Su Buwang grinned, “Sure enough, you always know everything.”

He scratched his head, “I don’t know very well. I just heard a sneer, and then the ugly monster dug and ran away... I really don’t understand. Do you have any ideas, Uncle?”

“Run away?”

Fang Yuan’s eyes were slightly cold, and his fear of the black-clothed woman became even stronger.

He was highborn and well-informed. Although with hindsight, he understood what he encountered.

But unexpectedly, that woman could even scare away the ghost with a sneer. No matter what, there was something very unusual.

Thinking of this, Fang Yuan glanced around the room, but he didn’t see anyone else.

“Sister went to inquire the news. Her destination is the same as ours, Linli Building.”

Su Buwang said casually.

Fang Yuan was shocked, and the flame buried in his heart couldn’t help burning again.

After pondering for a moment, Fang Yuan was about to get out of bed.

At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.

“You’d better lie down for a while. Although the Many-faced Tree is not such a powerful ghost, it is troublesome to run into something like ghost poison. It is always right to be careful.”

Su Li put on a wider black robe which shrouded her graceful body, and looked no longer outstanding.

Fang Yuan looked serious slightly. Then he held his fist in the other hand and said, “Thank you for that.”

“There’s no need to thank me.”

Su Li sat down at the table and prepared herself a pot of tea, “We agreed to take care of each other before walking together. Right now, I have just done what I should do.”

Fang Yuan withdrew his gaze of observation disappointedly. In the Reincarnation Mirror, he stayed by Su Li’s side and knew all of her small habits and preferences.

This woman poured tea with her right hand... Su Li used to pour tea with her left hand.

“Since we have reached this Yin and Yang Region, I’ll come straight to the point.”

Su Li took a sip of tea, looked up and said, “The reason I came here is simple. I heard that the base camp of Linli Building is in the Yin and Yang Region, so I am very curious about the owner of Linli Building who dare to take such an adventure under the noses of many holy sects.”

“There is only one owner of the Linli Building.”

Fang Yuan stared at Su Li, “Since you are so interested in it, you must know the identity of the owner.”

Su Li covered her mouth with a chuckle, and said nonchalantly, “Yes, I know. But isn’t that person dead? So, there must be a new owner.”

Fang Yuan looked serious, but Su Li quickly cut in, “Well, do you still think that person is alive? How could it be possible for her to survive as a target of so many holy sects?”

Fang Yuan was silent.

Even if he knew that the woman in front of him was telling the truth, he still didn’t want to believe it. If he believed... everything he did would be meaningless.

“Hey... Uncle Fang, Sister, who are you talking about?”

Su Buwang, who was eating sunflower seeds, finally cut in. He didn’t think that the person would be his mother in the slightest.

In his consciousness, the image of his mother still was the “handmaid” that Ling Li said. Even if she had a relationship with Uncle Fang, that would not tell a lot.

It just could tell that his mother must be very beautiful, so that someone like Lord of Evil would actually be tempted to give birth to him with his mother.

“The owner of Linli Building.”

Su Li took a deep look at Su Buwang. Then she turned around and looked at Fang Yuan, who almost ran out of patience. She said, “Little Brother, you know too little about Qingshui Circle. Consult your Uncle Fang for everything at your spare time. There is no harm, but only the benefits. Do you get it?”

“Got it...”

After being taught a lesson again, Su Buwang didn’t take a dislike to her at all. He scratched his head, and then remembered that she touched his head before.

Fang Yuan faintly breathed a sigh of relief and was silent for a while. Then she said, “Buwang and I come here to find someone. If we find that person, we will leave. Miss... what about you?”
