Chapter 488: 488
Xue Wei was aware that these vines could not be used whenever . The vines were very useful and could end the entire group of people in mere minutes, however, the essence blood of these people would also end up in the body of the Monarch Piranha Flower .
What it needed was strength . It had used up all the stored energy to try and launch an attack at Xue Wei before, and even more of that was used when it tried to poison him, so now it was recuperating .
It wanted Xue Wei to help it recuperate by using its vines and allowing it to drink a lot of essence blood, but Xue Wei was aware that he could only do that if he was close to death, otherwise he was helping someone else with taking over his body, and he was not that stupid .
But the strange discomfort he felt was suffocating, and he decided to use the experts that had appeared to vent his anger .
Shattering Mountain Palm!
Arcane Fist!
Kick of Forgotten Kings!
Xue Wei was like a killing machine as he wreaked havoc on the battlefield . He was reaping lives one after another without the slightest care for the opponents . His eyes were red, and his teeth were tightly clenched .
Although he was feeling better by venting his discomfort this way, he still felt uncomfortable, his heart was aching, and he had no way to make it stop .
The others frowned when they saw the grim expression on Xue Wei’s face . He was not reveling in the fighting as he usually was . Instead, he seemed as if he was trying to vent something unpleasant, making all of them worried .
They retreated slightly, and instead of killing the experts they were fighting with, they began just controlling them, letting Xue Wei kill them in an attempt at easing whatever discomfort he was feeling .
Xue Wei knew what his friends were doing for him, and he felt a stream of warmth enter his heart, easing the pain and discomfort, and he calmed down slowly .
Although it was uncomfortable, it was not painful . It felt stuffy and annoying, but he had experienced so many things throughout his life, that this heart ache was not enough to cause any real damage to him .
When realizing this, he slowly released a turbulent breath of air and relaxed . Calming down, he could slowly move on, and when he was able to exert vengeance on the Monarch Piranha Flower, he was going to make it suffer severely .
Trying to cause problems for him, time and time again, was simply not acceptable .
Lan looked at Xue Wei and nodded his head in approval . The Monarch Piranha Flower tried to take over Xue Wei’s body, but what the two of them were unaware of was that it was also possible to turn the battle the other way around . Xue Wei could swallow up the Monarch Piranha Flower and turn it into his own ability .
Lan had not told Xue Wei about it; he wanted him to figure it out himself, and seeing that he was so alert when dealing with the Monarch Piranha Flower, he had great expectations that the young man would figure it out soon .
It did not take long for them to deal with the experts, and even though they had sustained a few simple injuries, all of them were in a brilliant mood .
They were smiling and laughing while still on high alert . They robbed every valuable item from the experts and tossed the storage treasures to Xue Wei, who put them away . He did not have time to check the spoils of war right now .
They quickly burned the corpses, and let the ashes fly away before they roamed the forest again .
Luoluo and Bai Tianyi kept their spiritual energy spread out, and Xue Wei and the others observed the surroundings .
Like this, they encountered multiple groups, and the longer they were in the forest, the more groups they encountered .
Sometimes the noise of their battles would attract reinforcements, making the battles harder for Xue Wei and his friends . They were riddled with wounds, unable to get rid of them momentarily, even after eating the multiple medicinal pills that he had refined .
The group had gathered in a small cave they had found . They were bandaging their wounds, and while Hei Gou had lost a lot of blood from a wound on his abdomen, the others were also sweaty and exhausted after running around battling day in and day out .
Xue Wei could not help but laugh when looking at them . They were the ones who had stirred up the hornet’s nest, and this was precisely their goal, but they looked embarrassed and like hunted dogs now . Their bodies were exhausted, and they truly needed rest .
Xue Wei shook his head and looked at Lan . Lan, who sensed the gaze looked back, and he instantly guessed what Xue Wei wanted to say .
"Sure," he said with a smile on his lips . "I will ensure that no one comes close to this cave for the next day . All of you relax and go to sleep, leave your lives in my hands . "
Before, the group might have felt uncomfortable doing so, but after spending so much time alongside Lan, they no longer felt uncomfortable around him, and they instantly went to sleep .
Seeing their trust in him, the corners of Lan’s lips curled upwards, and he shook his head before waving his hand, and a transparent barrier surrounded the cave . Now anyone who came close to the outside of their resting place would only see a mountainside and no cave .
Even if they knew that there was a cave, everything would feel like part of the mountain, and it would be impossible to enter .
