Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Chapter 486: Chapter 486: The Mushroom’s Child Can Dig Holes

Yang Yu’s ”Thorny Binding” spurs, compared to the rose branches controlled and unfolded by Meiyu. Rose, were truly minor by comparison.

Rolling on these thorns was certainly much better than being tangled in the Rose Jungle woven by Meiyu. Rose, and definitely less constricting than being throttled by Meiyu. Rose herself.

Standing up from the purple thorns, Yang Yu brushed the thorns off his body and said with a smile,

”If you want to say something, just say it directly, why all the fuss? So many people are watching.”

Having grasped at nothing, Meiyu. Rose looked at her empty palm, seemingly surprised that Yang Yu had slipped through her fingers.

”You know what I want to say, don’t you?”

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Meiyu. Rose spread her arms, and the surrounding Rose Jungle immediately surged to life. The delicate branches lunged at Yang Yu like venomous snakes with a will of their own.

Yang Yu lifted his Sword Blade and cut down several branches, preserving the last of his Pure Land,

”I know what you want to ask, and it’s difficult for me when you silently toss things at me like this.”

”Since that’s the case, let’s hear everything you know. Just where did you get our Racial Essence from?”

”I can’t give a proper answer like this.

I know the gap in strength between us, and we couldn’t possibly escape from your grasp.

I ran just now because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to answer your questions.

With your power, you really don’t need to go to such lengths, do you?”

Yang Yu showed a playful smile,

”Or is it that you simply enjoy the feeling of holding another’s life in your hands?

Forgive me for being blunt, but if you continue to attack me like this, I’m afraid you’ll never learn the truth from my lips.”

Hearing Yang Yu’s words did not make Meiyu. Rose halt the Rose Jungle under her command; in fact, she intensified her efforts.

She wanted to see just how long this man, who knew what they needed and thus behaved so insolently, could hold out.

It was at this moment that the silent Nai Xu Mushroom beside Meiyu. Rose spoke up,

”Mei Meiyu, don’t forget our purpose for coming here. Take them, take them back with us and hand them over to the Council to reveal the truth. His life shall be judged by the Council.”

Nai Xu Mushroom, though appearing dignified and with a poetically resonant name, stumbled over his words as soon as he spoke, shattering the second-stage terminal illness impression Yang Yu had of him.

”That makes sense. First, restore your original form, how about that? Talking to you like this is quite uncomfortable for me.”

”Wait, wait a minute, I was planning on taking the underground route back, and this, this form is more suitable for digging through the ground.”

Nai Xu Mushroom answered, and Meiyu. Rose spread her hands in resignation before turning to Yang Yu,

”If you have something to say, wait until the Council meeting.”

Nai Xu Mushroom pressed down his Mushroom cap, and a burst of pressure emanated from him, filling the air with a peculiar fragrance.

Yang Yu realized something was amiss and hurriedly took a cloth from his System and wrapped it around his nose, but still, the spores spread by Nai Xu Mushroom found their way into his body through his nasal cavity.

An immediate feeling of Paralysis washed over Yang Yu, leaving him feeling incredibly sluggish. He opened his Status Bar, which indeed displayed a ”Paralysis” Status.

Yang Yu had no time to take out a remedy before Meiyu. Rose swiftly wove the rose branches into a cage, trapping him within.

Bai Jin and Iyas wanted to do something when suddenly they too felt a wave of Paralysis, becoming somewhat unable to move.

Nai Xu Mushroom looked towards Lotcar and the paralyzed Bai Jin, Iyas, and Hake, asking, ”What about, about those people? They, they must be his companions.”

”Just leave it be, if they care about this man, they’ll soon come chasing after us,” Bai Jin mused, ”and if by then we haven’t gotten anything from this man’s lips.

Then we try to get something out of theirs.

Let’s go.”

Mei Meiyu dragged the cage to her side, and her body’s thorns twined around Yang Yu’s prison.

”Hold on.”

Bai Jin struggled to get up, trying to stop the two from the Plant Clan from taking Yang Yu away, but her body was still unable to move.

Mei Meiyu glanced at Bai Jin and, with a flick of her finger, a pink rose suddenly bloomed on the rose branches coiling around Lotcar.

”We can only take one at a time. I’ll take this man. If you want him back, come find us in the Plant Clan’s territory. With these petals, you’ll be able to move freely through our lands.

Goodbye.”

Nai Xu Mushroom hugged himself front and back, then, exerting strength, he spun like a top. He leaped into the air and the mushroom cap atop his head transformed into the sharpest drill, burrowing into the ground.

Mei Meiyu followed close behind, numerous rose branches entered the tunnel, transforming into a slide, and together with Yang Yu trapped in the cage, they plunged underground—vanishing in an instant.

The spores that filled the street gradually dispersed, and the paralysis on Lotcar and the others lifted.

Lotcar approached the hole where Yang Yu had disappeared with caution, only to see that the hole had already been filled with thick soil, as if someone had hastily dug a pit and hastily refilled it.

Bai Jin didn’t know what to say as she gazed at the hole, she could only clutch tightly onto the fur on Lotcar’s back.

Iyas could only sigh inwardly and shake his head, but at that moment, Iyas suddenly sensed something, quickly drew her bow, and shot an arrow toward a tree not far away.

The arrow perfectly pierced a black shadow, which struggled for a while on the shaft before dissolving into nothingness.

...

Tu Jing chuckled with a ”giggle giggle giggle” as the black Peeping Mirror before him vanished.

”Giggle giggle giggle, things didn’t go exactly as planned, but it doesn’t matter anymore. In fact, it’s even better this way. Split them up, and when the time comes, it will be easier to conquer.

Once the Plant Clan takes someone captive, they won’t release them easily. They will inevitably go to reunite with that man.

This way, I can even curry a huge favor with that guy—truly a flawless plan.”

After several communications, Tu Jing had finally obtained permission from the Archbishop himself to take the field.

Now, he led dozens of black shadows onto the snowy mountains on the borders of Serti and Wansheng Country, where they were stopped by a man.

The man was dressed thinly, standing amidst the cold wind without showing any signs of chill, his red headband fluttered in the breeze, and he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, revealing a carefree smile.

”You guys are pretty good, appearing here must mean you’ve got some dirty secrets, hahahahaha, let me be the one to shatter your illusions!

I’ve grown weary of my training in the Snow Mountain, let me use you to aid my practice!”

”Unfortunately for you, we no longer have the time for your nonsense. If you keep delaying us, we may miss another opportunity. Kenro, delay him for a bit.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a Spiritual Body completely burst open, revealing a person, blackness spread under Kenro’s feet, forming a pool of black water,

”What a hassle, I didn’t want to waste too much stamina here, end up being summoned after all. I only have one aim following the bishop, to wash away the disgrace of that day, I don’t have time to tinker with you.”

With that said, massive black Spiritual Bodies sprouted from beneath Kenro’s feet, wrapping him into a massive black tiger.

And the man opposite him merely sank down, took a deep breath, and the ice and snow around him seemed to surge towards him as if being drawn in by his breath.
