Chapter 130 - Roses (2/2)
Mo Guyun had already approached the roses when she was stopped by Xiao Bin. However, nothing happened…
She plucked a rose and the rose bushes swayed in the breeze. The scent of roses in the air became stronger.
However, nothing happened…
Xiao Bin lifted one hand and refused to let go. In order to get rid of his embarrassment, he took a few steps forward and said, “Hey… I’ll pluck a couple too.”
However, at that moment, something unexpected happened. The countless rose bushes behind Mo Guyun started swaying. The flowers were like slender hands that grabbed Mo Guyun in an instant. The thorns of the roses immediately stuck into her body. A strong force swept over and pulled her into the bushes.
Everyone was stunned by the change. They had not expected the roses to attack them either. At that moment, Wei Huo leaped into the air and landed dozens of meters above the rose bushes.
Countless lightning snakes were coiled around one of his feet. A lightning kick descended from the sky and struck the rose bushes. Soon, six lightning bolts scattered and struck the surrounding rose bushes with terrifying power.
Everyone could only hear a rumbling sound. In a bit, countless broken branches flew out of the rose bushes.
There was a huge empty spot amid the rose bushes. Mo Guyun fell to the ground with wounds all over her body. Her clothes had been pierced by the rose branches.
Fortunately, she was still conscious. Although her body was hurting and itching, she still tried her best to get closer to Wei Huo. At that moment, countless rose branches became ferocious and drilled their way out of the ground one after another. They grew over 10 meters tall and attacked Wei Huo like barbed whips.
Wei Huo glanced at the rose bushes coldly and lifted his head to take a deep breath. The suctioning force was like a whale swallowing water. The wind produced by the suctioning force made the flowers sway.
A moment later, Wei Huo opened his mouth.
“Roar!”
He let out a breath of dragon flames. The dragon flames formed a fan-like shape with the help of the wind. Countless rose branches evaporated in an instant. Those that did not evaporate also started crackling due to the high temperature.
Ever since he had obtained the Dragon Flame Skill, Wei Huo had never breathed dragon flames like a dragon. He had only spat out a small ball of flames to turn it into a blade or a firebird. This time, the dragon flames finally displayed their power.
As he spat out a mouthful of dragon flames, all the wildly-swaying rose branches in front of Wei Huo were burned clean. Even the damp ground was cracked by the high temperature.
Wei Huo thought that the attack was over. However, at that moment, the two mountain peaks stuck in the valley started trembling. Rocks rolled down, and trees collapsed. It was as if an even larger monster was about to appear.
Wei Huo frowned. Lightning bolts appeared all over his body, and a pair of dazzling flame wings appeared on his back. It seemed as if he was soaring into the sky and battling the monsters hidden in the mountains.
At that moment, someone shouted, “Stop!”
The tremors in the mountains suddenly stopped, and Wei Huo’s fighting spirit gradually subsided. The rose bushes parted to the side, and a 40-year-old auntie ran over. She did not have much of an imposing aura and she was wearing muddy farm clothing. She had a scarf on her head and dark skin. She was also holding a hoe.
However, the rose bushes gave her an imposing aura. The rose bushes opened up and created a path for her. They swayed neatly on both sides as if cheering the plain auntie on.
The auntie ran over and made her way through the rose bushes. However, she suddenly stopped and held her knees to catch her breath.
“Let me… catch my breath. Stop fighting…”
