Chapter 260: Sect Master Luo has something to say

Xiao Hansu asked: "What's the surprise? Will the faces of the two sisters grow out from the middle of the flower?"

"Of course not. Twin flowers and human-faced flowers are different. Every kind of flower I cultivate has its own unique personality."

The man proudly began to introduce his work, "Did you notice? These twin flowers have two colors. The blue flower on the left is the elder sister, and the orange flower on the right is the younger sister. The two sisters grow back to back and cannot see each other. When you approach the twin flowers, it will turn into a woman with a graceful figure..."

"If the woman is wearing a blue dress, she will ask you with tears in her eyes: Have you seen my sister? She looks like me, she loves to laugh, she is lively and cheerful..."

"When you say you didn't see it, your sister will chop off your head and hide your body, saying that she will give it to her sister in the future."

"If the Twin Flowers transform into a woman in an orange dress, she will ask you angrily if you have seen her sister."

"If you say no, she will chop off your limbs and dig out your tongue, saying she wants to turn you into fertilizer so that her sister can grow more vigorously."

"The two sisters can only appear alternately. They accompany each other but can never meet each other."

Xiao Hansu asked: "What if I answer that I saw it?"

The man laughed. "They will dig out your eyeballs, and through your eyeballs, they will be able to really see their sisters... So, are you willing to sacrifice your eyes to help them?"

"No... I don't want to..." Xiao Hansu closed her eyes in fear. She didn't want to have her eyes gouged out.

The man shook his head in disappointment. "It seems that you don't have the good character of self-sacrifice. You are an inferior flower... By the way, I haven't asked your name yet?"

Xiao Hansu said: "I don't want to tell you."

The man smiled nonchalantly and said, "You will soon become my work, and by then, I will know everything about you."

Xiao Hansu was very angry, her cheeks were puffed up and her pupils were filled with flames of anger.

But when her eyes widened, they were moist and bright, and she looked lovely, without any intimidation at all. Not only was the man not afraid, he even laughed out loud.

"Master..." Xiao Hansu cried out aggrievedly, "He bullied me."

Luo Mingyue was sensing the spatial fluctuations around her. When she heard Xiao Hansu's voice, she opened her eyes and said softly, "Be good, we'll take care of him later."

"it is good!"

Only then did Xiao Hansu relax his brows and smile.

The man looked at Luo Mingyue with scrutiny, "Whatever trump card you have, you can use it now. But I tell you, you cultivators are all frogs in the well, so weak that you can't escape from my palm at all."

Luo Mingyue said: "I'll return this to you."

The man angrily said, "I've caught you, and you don't even have the courage to resist. Where do you get the confidence from? You should beg for mercy!"

What he loved to see most was the ugly look of others begging for mercy in pain, but Luo Mingyue was too calm, which made the man crazy and he didn't feel any sense of accomplishment at all.

Luo Mingyue was silent for a moment, and then said, "... Is there a possibility that I was just too lazy to walk, but wanted to find your lair, so I let you control me on purpose?"

The man's face was full of sarcasm. "Don't bluff. A few days ago, I captured a few young men and women. They are all very talented. Not only do they have single spiritual roots, but they also look great. After I captured them, they kept stiffening their necks and saying they were not afraid. One of the women even has a rare ice spiritual root. She tried to freeze my vines to death, but the plants here are not afraid of the cold at all."

The man sneered twice and continued, "I thought they were very powerful, so I was always on guard against them. Later I found out that they were just tough talkers and had no power at all. Now I have hung them all on the tree. When I have time, I will torture these ungrateful people and make them kneel down and beg me..."

Luo Mingyue's eyes flashed with surprise. The more she listened, the more familiar it sounded. She asked, "What's the name of that girl with ice spirit roots?"

The man said, "Yu Yingchao."

Luo Mingyue's forehead was filled with black lines. Isn't this her eighth disciple?
The man raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why, do you know each other?"

Luo Mingyue said without hesitation: "I don't know him."

What a bunch of annoying disciples. They always get caught whenever they go out.

The man narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Judging from your performance, you must be acquaintances. How is your relationship with him?"

Luo Mingyue sighed and said matter-of-factly: "We don't see each other very often. She may have hated me a little in the past, but she probably doesn't hate me anymore now. Our relationship...is not good, but not bad either."

"It sounds a bit complicated, but it doesn't matter, you will meet in a while. I will torture you two together."

The man narrowed his eyes slightly, already looking forward to the next scene. He hummed an unclear ballad, continued to lift his foot, and took the sixth step forward.

The scene in front of him changed rapidly again. The cliffs and the twin flowers all disappeared, and the surroundings became large tracts of farmland. There were many scarecrows farming in the fields. They held hoes and worked hard.

Xiao Hansu asked: "Why does the scenery around you change every time you take a step?"

The man didn't say anything. He only liked to tell people how perfect his work was and didn't want to answer such irrelevant questions.

Luo Mingyue lowered her head, looked at the man's feet, and replied: "Because every step he takes is on the location of a spatial node, constantly taking us into different spaces."

The man said indifferently, "Yes, you have some knowledge, but it's a pity that you have a fire spirit root and your temperament is not pleasant. I thought about it and you are not even worthy of being a human-faced tree. I should make you into a scarecrow and make you work before dawn. I will tire you to death..."

The man said as he took the seventh step.

A forest appeared in front of me. The distance between the trees was quite large because there was a person hanging under each tree.

Looking around, there were at least several hundred people imprisoned here. There were trees in the distance, but the air was filled with a thin mist, resulting in low visibility in the woods.

Tough vines extend from the branches of every tree. The vines wrap around people's hands and hang their bodies up. Everyone has to stand on tiptoe to relieve the pain in their wrists, because the vines are covered with dense small thorns that pierce the skin and bring sharp pain. If you don't stand on tiptoe, your feet cannot touch the ground. In this way, the weight of the whole body is concentrated on the wrists, and the shoulder joints cannot bear the burden. Even if the cultivators have better physical fitness and more physical strength, many people still faint.

Threads of blood flowed down the wound on the wrist. At this time, the vines would relax, allowing the fainted person to lean against the tree trunk. If the wrist was dislocated, the vines would "kindly" help connect the broken part.

Everyone present is a cultivator, especially those with ice spiritual roots, wood spiritual roots, and water spiritual roots. They all have some healing abilities. Sometimes the pain in their bodies is unbearable, and they accidentally use the spiritual power in their bodies. The situation will become worse, because the vines will wrap around their limbs and release thorns. Once pierced by the thorns, the spiritual power in the body will not flow smoothly, and they will not be able to use any spells. Moreover, the vine thorns will slowly absorb the spiritual power in everyone's body, which is very annoying.

Yu Yingchao's limbs were tightly entangled by vines, and she was sweating in pain. She was already weak, and now being treated like this, her frail body was tottering. She tried her best to stand on tiptoe, her clothes were wet with sweat, and her face was as pale as paper.

Murong Shi asked: "Chao Chao, are you okay?"

Yu Ying was in a weak voice, "I'm not feeling well..."

Murong Shi said, "I am almost dying of pain. If I had known this would happen, I should have hidden the puppet paper figures that our master gave us on our wrists. This way, when the thorns on the vine prick us and blood flows out, the paper figures will be activated, and our master will be able to sense our location and come to save us..."

"It's so embarrassing. We were deceived by a liar and lost our way, and ended up in this hellhole..."

"Never trust passers-by again!"

"The most important thing now is what to do... We tried to save ourselves, but our limbs were entangled by vines. It was difficult for us to even stand on tiptoe. We wanted to ask Master for help, but the paper puppets were all in the sachet around our waists. We couldn't activate them with spiritual power, and we couldn't let our blood flow in..."

Murong Shi said: "If we quietly pray to Master for help, do you think Master will come?"

The other disciples sighed and said, "It's useless. Master is not a deity. She has no idea that we are in danger, and it is impossible for her to suddenly come here to save us..."

Yu Yingchao pursed her lips and said, "In fact, I have mastered a secret technique. This secret technique was taught to me by my mother when she was alive. Once I use it, I will gain an extremely powerful ice power, which can temporarily break free from all restraints..."

Murong Shi asked, "Such a powerful secret technique must have side effects, right?"

Yu Yingchao said: "Yes, the side effect is that in the next month, I will become very afraid of cold and need to stay by the charcoal fire..."

Murong Shi asked: "Really? Why do I feel like you are lying to me?"

"Really..." Yu Yingchao dragged out the tone weakly.

In fact, she was lying just now.

This secret technique has serious side effects. Once it is performed, the Dantian meridians in the body will be forcibly activated, which is equivalent to overdrawing one's own vitality in exchange for powerful strength.

This secret technique can only be used once in a lifetime, because after using it, the body's potential will be drained, the Dantian and meridians will be damaged, and the cultivation will forever stop at the current level and can never be improved. If you are unlucky, the Dantian will be directly destroyed, and you will never be able to cultivate immortality and can only be an ordinary person.

Yu Yingchao was a girl who was very afraid of pain. Now that she was hung by the vines, she felt that she could not hold on any longer. Although her body could hold on for a while, she was mentally exhausted. She whispered, "You guys get ready. I'm going to start using my secret technique. After I break free from the vines, I will untie you immediately. You should quickly drip your spiritual power or blood into the paper puppet and ask for help from Master."

Murong Shi said: "Wait a minute, don't be impulsive. Maybe things will turn around, and you don't necessarily have to sacrifice yourself."

Yu Yingchao's voice trembled, "But I... I really can't hold on any longer... It hurts too much... I don't want to be in so much pain..."

Murong Shi said: "Can you imagine how painful Master's whip is? Compared with Master's whip, this pain is just a drizzle, not worth mentioning."

"But I can't bear it..." Yu Yingchao had a hard time expressing her pain. She was born more sensitive to pain than others, and the pain she felt was two or three times that of others. Now she had been hung for several days, and her wrist had been dislocated twice. Each time it was healed by the vines, and then a new round of torture began... She was really fed up with such a life!

Yu Yingchao bit her lower lip and decided to use the secret technique to escape, but she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

The man walked over steadily and laughed softly, "Are you guys discussing how to escape? That's great. I love the dying struggle of my prey the most... Also, Yu Yingchao, I brought back two beautiful girls this time. You should know them."

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Yu Yingchao was puzzled. She turned her head and then widened her eyes in surprise, "Master...Master..."

Luo Mingyue smiled, "Yes, it's me."

The other disciples heard this familiar voice and looked over excitedly.

"Master, you are here to save us?!"

"Wuwuwu Master, it hurts so much."

Murong Shi noticed that Luo Mingyue was also tied up with vines and was shocked. "How come you were caught too?"

"So you are the master of these people." The man looked surprised and couldn't help asking, "What is the name of your sect? Why are you all so good-looking? Is it the Hehuan Sect?"

Luo Mingyue had endured all this while, holding back her anger. Now that she had finally reached the man's lair, she smiled slightly and replied:
"Ming Yue Sect."

"What?" These three words successfully changed the man's expression.

Luo Mingyue said no more, her body was burning with blazing white flames.

Not only her body, but every tree in the forest was ignited by the blazing white flames. The terrifying high temperature produced layers of heat waves, burning away the thin mist in the air.

"what!!!"

Every big tree let out a shrill and piercing scream.

All the vines on Luo Mingyue's body were burned. She put Xiao Hansu down, then took out the guqin and played a melodious tune.

The music turned into silk ribbons, gently wrapping up each cultivator hung by the vines, gently soothing their wounds, and isolating the terrifyingly high temperature of the flames to prevent these poor cultivators from being burned to death.

"Master Luo, let's talk!"

The man panicked. Every tree in this forest was his treasure. He would be heartbroken if even just one was missing!

"Don't burn it, don't burn it, Sect Master Luo, if you let me go, I... I can tell you something very important!"
