When Beauty Meets Beasts

At the thought of this, her heart ached terribly.

A tear rolled down from the corner of her eye and landed on the Soul-Devouring Vines.

The Soul-Devouring Vines trembled.

Just as Little Brat was about to save Huanhuan, the Soul-Devouring Vines slowly loosened, and Xing Chen's voice sounded again.

"I'm glad you didn't lie to me this time."

Huanhuan sat on the ground and covered her throat with both hands, coughing non-stop.

The Soul-Devouring Vines approached her.

"This is for you."

Huanhuan raised her head and saw a small white flower wrapped around the tip of a vine.

At this moment, Xing Chen was almost out of strength. The Soul-Devouring Vines couldn't help but tremble, and the little white flower also trembled.

This was a flower that he had treasured for many years.

It was also the first gift he had received in his life.

Huanhuan couldn't help but reach out and gently touch the petals with her fingertips.

At this moment, the Divine Wood seed in her body seemed to have been summoned. Its strength suddenly soared, and many thin green branches grew out of her hair. They continuously wrapped and spread along her arm, blooming into green leaves.

Some remnant memories of the Divine Wood surged into her mind…

Its seed germinated, sprouted, and received the baptism of the sun. Under the love and care of the gods, it grew into a towering tree.

Animals gradually evolved into beasts. They became smarter and more cunning.

The Soul-Devouring Vines ignored the pain of being burned and traveled through mountains and rivers to see the Divine Wood every day.

The gods fell one after another, and the beasts gradually lost their faith. The Divine Wood also gradually withered.

The Soul-Devouring Vines released the demons, causing a huge battle.

The Divine Wood stepped forward and guarded the beast continent.

After the demons were defeated, they retreated to the abyss. The remaining demons stayed in remote places and gradually gave birth to more demons.

With the Soul-Devouring Vines sealed, faith was regained in the Divine Wood, and it condensed the heart of nature, becoming a demigod.

The beasts built a beast city and started a new chapter.

The first-generation Divine Wood aged day by day, losing its vitality bit by bit.

The patriarch of the unicorns predicted that the beast continent would welcome a second invasion of demons. In order to protect the beast continent, he extracted the soul of the Divine Tree and sent it to an unknown world…

That was the end of the memory.

Huanhuan felt that her neck no longer hurt. Her body, which had been abnormally weak from excessive blood loss for the past few days, had completely recovered.

She lowered her head and realized that she had already held the small flower in her hand.

The power of the Divine Wood reached its peak at this moment.

She felt warm, light, and comfortable.

Not only that, but her body was also glowing.

The gentle and holy light bloomed through her skin, making her more and more dazzling.

The Soul-Devouring Vine that approached her was accidentally burned by the light. It let out a sizzling sound, and the pain was unbearable.

But even so, the vines still stubbornly wrapped around her wrist, unwilling to let go.

Little Brat asked, "You remember everything, right?"

Huanhuan nodded. "Yes."

She remembered everything about the Divine Wood.

The wisp of soul belonging to the Divine Wood that was sent to another world was her.

The person who sent her away was the first patriarch of the unicorns, Yin Ji's great-grandfather.

Huanhuan lowered her head to look at the dying Soul-Devouring Vines and softly called out, "Xing Chen…"

The Soul-Devouring Vines moved, and then they completely withered, turning into a pile of dry and withered vines.

Huanhuan held back her tears and wanted to touch the vines.

However, when her fingertips touched the vines, all the vines instantly turned to dust and were blown away by the wind.

To him, she was a lethal poison. Touching him would make him wish he was dead.

But if she didn't touch him, he might as well not live.

Huanhuan finally couldn't help but cry. "I'm sorry. I've harmed you…"

Tears fell to the ground one after another.

After absorbing her tears, the divine mountain, which had been blasted into ruins, suddenly had a strong vitality. Green leaves quickly grew on the ground, and flowers bloomed. Even the trees grew into a dense area in just a few minutes.

The temple was gone, and so was the altar.

However, the divine mountain became even more lively.

When Chen Yuan and Zao Nian brought the others up the mountain, they were all stunned when they saw the dense forest in front of them.

When they were at the foot of the mountain, they clearly heard an earth-shattering explosion coming from the mountain. The upper half of the divine mountain was about to explode. Why did so many vibrant flowers and plants suddenly grow?!

Just as everyone was puzzled, Huanhuan walked out of the depths of the forest alone.

She glanced over and found that in the crowd, apart from Chen Yuan and Zao Nian, there were also Leng Xiao, Shuang Jing, and seven other divine guards.

Leng Xiao took a step forward and said respectfully, "After He Zong took control of the 10,000 Beast Temple, we tried to launch a sneak attack to snatch back control of the temple, but we were all defeated by him. None of us was his match. We failed to protect you, Lady Prophet. It was our negligence. Please punish us, Lady Prophet!"

"Let's put aside the punishment for now. I have something else for you to do. If you do it well, you can atone for your mistakes. If you can't do it, just pack up and get lost."

Leng Xiao said solemnly, "Please give me your orders."

"Even though He Zong is dead, he still has four sons. Immediately lead troops to subdue his four sons. Capture them alive if possible. If you really can't, execute them on the spot."

"Alright!"

Before the four princes knew that He Zong was dead, Leng Xiao immediately led eight divine guards down the mountain to capture the four princes.

Huanhuan looked at Chen Yuan and Zao Nian and asked where Eggy and Jian Yi were.

Seeing that Huanhuan was safe and sound, Chen Yuan calmed down a little and said, "Eggy and Jian Yi have already been settled in the relay station at the foot of the mountain. When we left, they were still unconscious. I don't know if they've woken up yet."

As Huanhuan walked down the mountain, she arranged the missions. "Go to the city and build an altar immediately. There's no need to make it especially exquisite and luxurious. As long as you're sincere when doing it, it's fine. I need it urgently."

"Okay."

With the power of the Divine Wood, Huanhuan could walk down the mountain without needing anyone to support her.

When she reached the foot of the mountain, she went to take a look at Eggy.

At this moment, Eggy was already awake. When she saw her mother coming, she immediately flapped her wings and flew over, plunging into her mother's arms.

Huanhuan touched her glossy feathers. "Are you hurt or uncomfortable anywhere?"

"No, I'm fine. How about you, Mom?"

"I'm fine too."

Eggy couldn't help but ask, "Where's the little brother who has always been by your side?"

"Little brother?"

"That little brother with short gray hair and especially fair skin."

She was asking about Xing Chen.

It wasn't that Eggy cared much about him, but because during the period of time when she was imprisoned, every time Eggy saw her mother, she would see Xing Chen by her side.

Now that he was suddenly missing from her mother's side, Eggy was not used to it.
