Waterwood Fatality

Qiao Xue, herself, overlooked the fact that Mu Yu couldn’t control her water spirit; their personal items couldn’t be shared. That was how it was supposed to go. By some stroke of luck, the blue ribbon flopped down from Mu Yu’s hand, tapping his wood sprit. The two glowed as if they were exchanging a greeting between friends. The water spirit wrapped itself around his wood spirit, giving the sword the vibe of a water sword.

The wood spirit sent Mu Yu a message. Out of instinct, he grabbed Wood Spirit Sword in his right hand and knew what to do next.

“I heard the old man say wood and water element demons could fuse to become a stronger entity. The new ability empowered them to counter fire demons. He said the ability was called Waterwood Fatality,” informed Xiaoshuai.

“Oh, I see. Let’s put the story to the test, then!”

Mu Yu’s slash was executed as if he was wielding his usual sword. Cool waves of sword qi were calming on the mind, but they could also extinguish the fires. The droplets of water flying about sprouted sprouts that instantly grew into towering trees. The leaves transformed into green drops of light.

The green drops enveloped in water droplets didn’t evaporate when they touched the fire demons as they expected them to. Sadly for them, the water droplet extinguished their flames and allowed the green light to seep into their body. Within seconds, the green light would overrun their entire system and make them glow green. Once they were covered, green sprouts would force their way to the surface of their skin and rapidly grow. Instead of opening their mouths to cry for help, a branch crawled out of their mouth. They essentially became peculiar plants that levitated.

“Waterwood Fatality, I like that name.”

Mu Yu’s next swing decimated another wave of fire demons at the forefront. Having lost numerous allies, they eventually backed off.

The scalding heat and fires disappeared once the fire demons retreated. None of them chased after them, thankfully.

“By the way, I forgot to ask you for your name.”

“My name is Yan Hen. Everyone calls me Ol’ Yan. I am a lumberjack. This is my son, Yan Xiaomo,” Yan Hen courteously answered.

“Thank you for saving us,” expressed Yan Xiaomo.

“Haha, don’t worry about it. I was just passing by,” responded Mu Yu, reminded of the devilish twins.

“My father said elemental demons are the ones who can control wood and water. How come you can also control them?”

Yan Hen flinched. “Don’t make silly guesses, Xiaomo. That’s just his ability. Please forgive my son’s ignorance, Immortal Master.”

In truth, Yan Hen was befuddled over the same thing. Howbeit, he knew better than to ask. It also had little, if anything, to do with him.

Mu Yu mulled over how to explain himself.
