Chapter 492: Challenge

"Yea. I managed to escape a few minutes before the curse attacked this place thousands of years ago" Rhexia replied, but her tone was a little sad.

For she was the only one who managed to escape before her entire race was hit by the Curse of the Night.

"I see ... As you returned, you needed to speak to the empress. She is waiting for your return"

"Where is she?" Rhexia knew who the so-called empress was.

Her tone was nostalgic, she still remembered things from the past.

"Follow me, but this human man cannot come with us. It will contaminate our air." The dryad pointed to Liu Yang. She couldn't let an outside person enter the place.

"He's my man. I will not allow him to be banned from entering." Rhexia would not let that happen. She was already asking Liu Yang for a favor, so she wouldn't let anything happen to him.

"You cannot ignore dryad rules. Only members of our race or women can enter our territory. Men are forbidden"

"This is no longer the land of dryads. It has become just a cursed place like all of you," Rhexia replied coldly. She was not wrong in her words.

Since the Curse of the Night completely covered the place, the ancient dryad territory has become a dead and lifeless place.

The cursed dryads still maintained their sanity after so many years, but that does not change the fact that they were still cursed beings.

"You can stop discussing this issue. You can bring that human man with you." A melodious voice echoed from all sides, but a tone of irritation and coldness could be felt.

"Empress, will you allow this man to enter our territory? This is against the rules." Some dryads were opposed to this idea.

It is not known whether this refusal was caused by the curse or their thoughts.

"Here is no longer the land of dryads. Our pure and untouched forest has been contaminated by the curse. Until that curse is removed, that place is just a cursed place like any other" The voice echoed again.

"Empress, I refuse to accept that. This place belongs only to our race and no man can enter." Some dryads were still refusing to let Liu Yang enter even after the order of the so-called empress.

"I see ... Since some of you are not accepting his entrance, I will have to make a drastic decision. Those who are against the entry of this man will fight against him. If you win, he will stay outside and only his wife will enter. But if he wins, you will let him water you like a gardener using his essence, this will be like a punishment for defeat "

"We accept this challenge" Some dryads agreed to fight Liu Yang.

Of the tens of thousands of them, only a few dozen maintained their sanity while the rest were still wandering aimlessly in the surrounding areas.

Thus, Liu Yang would not have many opponents to deal with.

"Man, you cannot refuse this challenge, otherwise, you will have to leave your wife alone"

"I will accept this challenge. I will not leave her with you." Liu Yang commented solemnly. He was unaware of the situation there, so it would be very dangerous to leave Rhexia alone.

Besides, she was the mother of the nine children he helped give birth to. So Liu Yang couldn't abandon her.

"Liu Yang, will this be okay? They have about seven people." Rhexia was concerned for him. She didn't know Liu Yang's power very well, so it was normal for her to worry.

"Rhexia, you don't have to worry about that. I will deal with them, but before that, I want a kiss of encouragement" Liu Yang spoke in a loving and comforting way. He didn't want her to be too worried about him.

"My love, I will trust you" Rhexia put her thin arms around his neck before giving the kiss.

The couple began a hot and passionate kiss before the dryads' eyes, but they did nothing to disrupt this moment.

The kiss lasted about ten minutes before they stopped.

"Liu Yang, I will reward you appropriately after you deal with these annoying people" Rhexia whispered in his ears.

"I will be waiting for this" Liu Yang was already encouraged.

"Human man, are you done playing? I'm already getting impatient "The dryads did a formation.

"I am ready already. Will you fight like that? Or will they come out of those trees? " Liu Yang was already in a battle position.

His armor was already equipped. He would not use swords, but fists.

"We are going to do this now"

crack… crack… crack…

The seven dryads forced their bodies and they came out of the rotten trees. Their naked bodies, but covered in black ink, were shown in front of Liu Yang.

None of them were ashamed to show the bodies. They were always naked and used only a few sheets to cover their important parts.

So it was normal for them to stay that way.

Rhexia wore light and thin clothes because she showed her body only to Liu Yang. He is the only person that she showed her naked body.

…

In a place a little distant ...

A gigantic tree could be seen. The trunk was about hundreds of meters high and tens of meters wide. The leaves looked like huge umbrellas.

The most surprising thing was that the tree was not dry or rotten like the other dryads. In several places, it was possible to see green and shiny leaves.

At the base of the tree, it was possible to see a mature woman with green skin.

The woman was beautiful with a mature and seductive aura. On the top of her head was a crown made of green leaves, but some were already dry.

Even with the eyes closed and with seventy percent of the body inside the tree, its beauty can still be seen and felt. The woman trapped in the tree was the dryad called the empress by the other dryads.

The empress slowly opened her eyes, and a light green glow appeared before disappearing. The two green pupils were two beautiful jewels.

"You finally came back ... I won't be able to hold on much longer ... Try to resolve this matter as soon as possible..." Her soft voice was hoarse, but it contained many different emotions. She was watching that scene, but it was making her very anxious.
