Hmm?
The Firefinch Demon halted and looked at the apple strangely. “Did I miss it?”
It opened its mouth again. This time, it opened its eyes wide as it went forward to bite it.
However, it saw the apple moving slightly. The apple turned away once again.
“The tree branch moves!?”
This time, it saw the apple move with its eyes. It had chills all over, feeling shocked and amazed. The Firefinch Demon looked up and its soul instantly left its body in fear. Its feathers stood, making it look like a hedgehog.
It saw that somehow, it was already surrounded by the tree branches. Countless branches were holding it like the claws of the devil, engulfing it entirely. The branches were so tightly packed together that it made one’s scalp itchy.
Meanwhile, a wave of laughter filled its ears which was terrifying.
Spirits! These trees had turned into Spirits!
Gasp!
The Firefinch gasped loudly, its bird-mouth opened. Instantly, a wave of yellow flames shot out like a flaming sea, washing over the tree branches!
Outside the four-part architecture.
The group who was still arguing outside shivered.
Qin Manyun shrunk her head and asked, “Was that the Firefinch Demon…screaming?”
“Should…should be.” Yao Mengji nodded heavily.
Gu Changqing shook his head. “That’s bad. I wonder what happened to the bird in there for it to scream like this.”
The world of the bigshot was always beyond one’s imagination.
Therefore, he had to make sure he had nothing to do with the bird!
“That’s your bird!”
“Nonsense! The bird flew away from your shoulder! It’s obviously yours!”
“The bird belongs to the two of you. I’m innocent!”
…
The Firefinch Demon opened its eyes wide in fear. It was shivering thoroughly as it stared at the sky, watching the flames dissipating in the air.
In the next moment, the fear in its eyes darkened.
The tree branches remained unperturbed. They did not even flinch as they stood still without a trace of the flames.
The Firefinch Demon jolted as it fell to the ground. It rolled its eyes and almost fainted.
Its worldview had been flipped upside down.
Fire destroyed wood.
That was the law of nature.
Furthermore, it had the bloodline of the Phoenix. It used the Phoenix Flame. How was it possible for the leaves to remain unharmed?
What kind of Godly Tree Demons were these?
“Demons! These are all demons! Help!”
It covered its head with its wings. It was utterly terrified. It had started mumbling to itself. It then stretched out its wings and raced toward a small gap between the branches.
However, a branch slightly moved and whipped it back down without the slightest effort.
Whip!
The Firefinch Demon was whipped back to where it was, its buttock falling on the tree branch.
Before it could make sense of anything, countless branches shot out like vipers and tied the Firefinch Demon. They then pulled hard to stretch out its wings, making it hang in the air embarrassingly.
Skin prickling laugher resonated in the air, making the Firefinch Demon shiver.
“The flaming bath was quite comforting, little bird. Give me another one,” a mocking voice was heard saying. The Firefinch Demon then felt its scalp itching and organs exploding.
Flaming…flaming bath?
The Firefinch Demon jolted. Without further ado, it hastily opened its mouth and shot out a mouthful of flame.
Phew!
Instantly, it became like a flaming sea. However, the Tree Demons bathed in the flames. They even stretched their bodies, to the left and the right, as if they were enjoying it very much.
This sight was too shocking to watch. Especially to the Firefinch Demon. Even its nightmares had never been this scary!
Tears were pouring from its eyes uncontrollably. It was extremely helpless. “Home. I want to go home…”
The Firefinch Demon had been spitting out flames for almost half an hour. The flame was getting smaller and smaller. Finally, its head tilted and the flame coming out from its mouth had turned to smoke.
A voice so hoarse and blurry came out from its mouth as it said listlessly, “I can’t do it anymore…”
“No more? Whatever! Toss it away.”
The Tree Demons were not pleased. A branch simply moved and tossed the Firefinch Demon into the pond.
Drop!
Gulp! Gulp!
The Firefinch Demon instantly swallowed a few mouthfuls of the water from the pond. Right away, its throat was moisturized and its thirst was quenched.
Suddenly, it jolted with a look of disbelief. “This…this is Spiritual Water?”
However, before it could get over its shock, a gigantic figure rose from the pond, pushing the Firefinch Demon out of the water.
The Firefinch Demon looked so tiny lying on the shell of the tortoise. It was not even as big as the patterns found on the shell.
Terrified, it flew away from the shell and landed on the side of the pond. It staggered backward cautiously.
So terrifying! So terrifying!
This was definitely not a place to stay any longer, so dangerous! If it stayed here any longer, it might die of terror!
As it was leaving, the Firefinch Demon secretly looked around. The more it looked, the more shocked it was. All the trees and plants here, even the soil, were more precious than anything back in the Immortal Land!
‘I must’ve transgressed. I must’ve gone back to ancient times.
‘I’m only a small bird. I’m sorry for my ignorance. I’m a fool. Please, let me go, please. Please!’
It mumbled in its head, suddenly it saw something from the corner of its eyes and jolted.
Its bird mouth opened so wide that its eyeballs almost popped out.
It turned its head over and stared at the little sapling by the pond. Its brain had lost its ability to think.
Disbelief. Excitement. Fear. Respect. All of these expressions flickered so fast on its face that its face was almost having a seizure.
“That…that’s…”
Immortal Qi!?
Exactly!
It must be Immortal Qi!
What kind of little sapling was that? It was able to produce Immortal Qi!?
Shockingly unbelievable!
No wonder the road between here and the Immortal Land was rebuilt. This bigshot was recovering Immortal Qi!
“There’s such a big bigshot hiding in this ordinary realm! And what did I do? I barged into the backyard of this bigshot. I—I—I…” Its voice was trembling.
“Not only did I miss a great opportunity, but I also might… I might get killed and die a very horrible death!
‘It’s over. It’s over! It’s over for me!’
The Firefinch Demon felt its blood freeze. All of its feathers stood up and hardened. It was so terrified that it lost its rationality.
Drop!
The water in the pond gradually rose. Half of a golden head appeared and glanced at the Firefinch Demon with an unfriendly look.
Instantly, it was as if the Firefinch Demon had been bewitched and it was unable to speak. It could only feel something stuck in its throat. Its brain was unable to handle more attacks. It became stunned.
“After all, this is someone’s gift to the master. It’s not nice if we eat it now. Furthermore, there’s not much meat on this bird. It can’t even fill the gap between my teeth. Whatever, just give it a lesson and let it go. As long as it doesn’t make a fool of itself in front of our master.”
The tail of the Golden Dragon rose from beneath the pond. It flicked its tail as if flicking a fly, and tossed the Firefinch Demon out of the backyard, flying outward…
