withered prosperity

"I did know." Yan Hai looked at Yue Liuyi: "So this is the real reason why I killed her at all costs."

"You mean, if I win, she'll make me like those butterfly slaves?"

"more or less!"

"What method does she use..."

"No matter what method she uses, she can occupy other people's bodies, which is beyond the scope of human power." Yan Hai reminded her: "Have you ever seen anything similar to this island on land?"

"What do you mean?" Yue Liuyi became more and more confused.

Yan Hai looked around and picked up a fallen leaf from his side.

"Look at this leaf."

Yue Liuyi stretched his neck and looked over as he said, even Mu Huaijin who was on the side was also staring at the leaf.

"Ye Zi...what's wrong?" Yue Liuyi asked uncertainly. "Is there anything special?"

"Huh? This leaf..." It was Mu Huaijin who discovered something: "I've never seen it before."

The leaf is very small. At first glance, it is no different from the leaves you see every day, but if you look closely, you can find that the edges are covered with strangely shaped sawtooth, and they are arranged in a unique pattern, especially through Yueliuyi. It also seemed unusual to be able to see the veins of the leaves in the light of the fire.

"Every plant and tree here is very different from those on land, not to mention strange beasts." Yan Hai threw away the leaf. "So the weird things like islands rising from the sea may not all be fake."

Yue Liuyi bit her finger, as if she was thinking about something, her complexion gradually became serious.

"If everything is really different...everything is unique to this island..." She looked at Mu Huaijin who picked up the leaf in her hand and looked at it: "Then, does the 'Palace Master' also exist here? A strange beast on an island? So is she..."

"Butterfly." Yan Hai said at the same time as her.

Yue Liuyi took a deep breath.

All bad things start with butterflies.

Then, Yue Liuyi seemed to think of something, and his face suddenly changed.

"Could it be that Yue Qingbi her in the end..." She stopped here and stood up abruptly.

Yan Hai also stood up.

The moonlight shone on the opposite mountain wall, illuminating it white.

Suddenly, a strange voice came.

It's slight at first, but gets louder in no time.

Even then, the ground began to tremble slightly.

"This movement is really big." Mu Huaijin smiled a little reluctantly: "If I hadn't said it beforehand, I'm afraid I would really..."

Yue Liuyi picked up the short sword and slowly walked towards the deep stream under the opposite mountain wall.

The sound came from there.

Yan Hai was watching, when suddenly a gust of wind blew from nowhere, blowing away the burning fire, many burning branches were blown into the weeds beside them, and the big trees behind them were also affected up.

Because there had been no rain for several days, and the tree was extremely flammable, the flames sprang up suddenly.

Yan Hai and Mu Huaijin retreated to the central road.

And with the wind, the voice became louder and louder.

Yan Hai covered his face with his sleeves, narrowed his eyes and looked to that side.

Yue Liuyi finally turned around, but the expression on her face looked very flustered.

"Go!" she yelled, waving her arms as she ran back. "Yue Cuiwei, let's go!"

At the same time, behind Yue Liuyi, a huge black shadow rushed into the air from the deep stream.

When jumping out of the shadow of the mountain wall, countless silver scales shone like mirrors in the moonlight, dazzling people's eyes.

It didn't stay in mid-air, and swooped down after a turn.

"It's a snake! Big snake!" Mu Huaijin, who could see clearly, turned pale with fright, and pulled Yan Hai to run away.

Yan Hai lifted his arm and broke free from his pull.

Yue Liuyi ran all the way, saw the burning tree, slashed hard at the root of the tree, and kicked again.

The big tree fell in the middle, and the burning fire temporarily blocked the road.

"It's that sea snake!" She had already run in front of the two of them in a blink of an eye, her face full of panic, "It's not that this thing has been sleeping under the deep sea for hundreds of years, why did it suddenly appear here!"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's run!" Mu Huaijin saw that all the big snakes that looked like a small mountain had climbed out of the deep ravine, and hurriedly said: "Let's go back and retreat to the narrow part of the mountain wall, and it won't be able to get through. .”

"to us……"

"No!" Yan Hai interrupted them, his face was pale, but his expression was firm: "Yue Liuyi, give me the sword."

"You're crazy!" Yue Liuyi yelled at him, "This monster is too big, the two of us can't kill it!"

Those golden eyes are like two huge lanterns, and if that mouth is opened, it is estimated that it can swallow a large ship. In front of such a strange beast, any martial arts and so on are nonsense.

"You find a place to hide first." Yan Hai first said to Mu Huaijin: "Yue Liuyi, go and lure him here, we will kill it at the narrowest part of the mountain wall."

"I said, are you crazy!"

"Don't let it break the cable bridge!" Yan Hai snatched a short sword from Yue Liuyi's hand. "If we don't kill it, we'll never get through it."

Seeing that the big snake could not cross the burning tree, it tried to cross the line of fire by sticking to one side of the mountain wall.

Yan Hai turned around and left, Yue Liuyi could only scold her mother, clenched the remaining sword, turned to meet the big snake.

A flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, followed by bursts of thunder and heavy rain.

Mu Huaijin ran in the front. He turned his head and saw the extremely ferocious and terrifying scene of the giant snake with its head up and its mouth open amidst the thunder and lightning.What's more, the rain fell on Yan Hai's face behind him, slid over his temples and cheeks, and finally dripped down his chin...

He suddenly remembered what Yue Linghan had said to him before.

Yue Cuiwei is the kind of person who... he has to do those things that are absolutely impossible, and he can still do it, the kind of person who is very annoying!

Judging by the things he did, he was a lunatic, the craziest kind.

It's okay to be crazy, he is still very smart... so scary... because you never know what he will do next...

Obviously unable to use martial arts, but to fight such a terrifying giant snake.

Cutting off the back road, not asking about the future... Yue Cuiwei is really... frightening...

"Hide!" Yan Hai shouted at him amidst the thunderous explosion.

They were now between the narrowest mountain paths.

Yan Hai stopped and turned around.

With a horizontal sword on his chest, he looked up at the giant snake like a mountain.

Although the figure is small, it is like a mainstay, as stable as a rock.

And on the top of the mountain above his head, where no one can see, there is a person standing firmly in the rainstorm, taking all this into his eyes.

The gust of wind blew the hem of the man's clothes, lightning flashed by, and a blood red color was reflected in those eyes.
