191 THE CURSED FORES

As they move deeper into the forest, a great sense of danger grip on their heart. Looking around the area, the trees on this part of the forest were so lean and tall.

Lifting their gaze, following the trunk of the trees the group noticed that the trees shoot upward.

Its altitude was too high to the point that seeing the peak of the trees is even hard. It looks like the trees pierced straight to thick clouds above.

The sound seems to be muffled in this particular area of the forest. The surroundings were plunged into a deep and disturbing silence.

Even the usual sweet singing of the birds in the background were absent at that time.

"Be careful. Something feels wrong in this place."

The silence was so unnerving to the point that the group can even dare and bet that something is wrong with this place.

As if to prove them right, one of the vines hanging on the tree near to Shen Biru seems to gain consciousness as it started moving on its own. Moving closer to Shen Biru's left shoulder.

But of course, this small movement on their back was not enough to catch the group's detection as it was done without creating any noise.

The vine hanging above Shen Biru's shoulder positioned itself before tapping on the sorceress' shoulder in a light manner. As if it was afraid that the sorceress will get startled to this action.

As soon as Shen Biru felt the light tapping on her shoulder, she instantly whipped her head and looked back.

But no one is there. Thus she immediately assumed that it was the playful Long Yue who was playing a prank on her. Since he was the nearest one standing close to her at the moment.

"Tsss..."

Thinking that Long Yue was trying to get her attention discreetly, Shen Biru rolled her eyes in irritation.

But she did not give him any response.

When the light tapping did not stop at that first attempt, Shen Biru's attention already reached its limit.

"Hey! What are you up to? Can you stop messing around with me???!"

Shen Biru said with an irritated tone on her voice as she looked to Long Yue.

When they see Shen Biru acting weird and directing accusing look to Long Yue all of a sudden, the group was left perplex.

"Why??? I didn't do anything???"

Long Yue said with and bewildered expression. He too was confused upon seeing Shen Biru acting as if he did something to her.

Did your head got a loose screw??? I don't have any plans to do with you. Tsss..

"What's going on, guys????"

Mu Lingxi asked when she saw the duo shooting hostile gazes at one another.

"I don't know with your girl, Su Yan. She just started shouting all of a sudden."

"Bro Yan, this Long Yue was trying to flirt on me!"

When the group heard Shen Biru's claim, they all look dumbstruck.

Seriously???

At a time like this, you guys even find time to start flirting around?!

Can't that wait???

This is especially so to Long Fuzi. He looked at his dear young brother to seek his side. He really can't imagine Long Yue being daring as that.

"Nonsense! Did you just hit your head somewhere? Stop spouting lies? Why would I even flirt with you??? You're not my type! For your information!"

I'd rather hang myself in a tomato tree than to flirt with a girl like you!

Narcissist!

"Shut up!!!!! Hold your tongue. Let's talk about it later, after the competition."

Mu Lingxi said before Shen Biru could even give her response.

Instead of allowing the two to start bickering with one another, it is better to stop them right now.

Chan Gu still had his bow slung on his shoulder at that moment. Another vine approached him on his back.

It grips on the bow in Chan Gu's shoulder and Chan Gu was visibly startled when he saw a vine wrapping around his bow.

He immediately took the bow away from him and let the vines take it.

"Quick! Stay away from the trees!!!!"

Chan Gu shouted to warn his friend.

Since he was the one to get attacked by the moving vines, he immediately noticed that something is amiss with the trees.

The other vines on the area also started moving on its own. It seems like the trees around them started to gain consciousness!

"Run! We have to get away from here!!! This forest is cursed!!!!"

The group knew that they must stay away from the moving vines and escaped that cursed forest. Or else, they might end up trapped inside of it.
