Chapter 324: Attack of the Vines

Feng Tianlan frowned slightly after hearing the girls exchange words with the intention of lettings down their guards. She looked back and confirmed that they had indeed passed by the carnivorous flowers earlier. Lin Suyin had definitely known that they were Man-Eating Flowers, so why hadn’t she spoken up earlier? Why wait to say something helpful until Yunzhu was about to touch it?

This way of doing things was rather ridiculous in Feng Tianlan’s estimation.

Feng Tianlan looked over at Lin Suyin and said, “I looked back and realized that we’ve passed by these Man-Eating Flowers earlier already.”

Luo Yunzhu turned around and saw that there had indeed been several Man-Eating Flowers along the way. She immediately started doubting Lin Suyin.

Lin Suyin calmly explained, “I wasn’t sure if it was really a Man-Eating Flower at first. By the time I confirmed it, Miss Luo had already put her hand out…”

“I see.”

Feng Tianlan’s reply was a little stiff, so Lin Suyin just smiled awkwardly then went back to her team when the time was right.

When Luo Yunzhu saw how Lin Suyin had reacted so naturally, she wondered if she had been too narrow-minded. “Tianlan, is it because I started off biased against her that I’m overthinking everything now?”

“We ought to be wary at all times.” Feng Tianlan believed her own intuition more than Lin Suyin’s explanation.

Luo Yunzhu nodded. “Whether she’s sincere or not, she wants to gain our favor. We’ll just let her be for now and see if she’s got any other motives.”

Azurite walked over to Feng Tianlan and said a little anxiously, “Master, the smell of blood is in the air. Let’s get out of here.”

“Yunzhu, let’s go.” Feng Tianlan had a bad premonition as well. She placed one hand on her dagger and clasped Luo Yunzhu with the other. She started to walk lightly on her toes, ready to fly from this place.

CHEEP!

The shriek of a bird could be heard overhead. Then, with a loud bang, some liquid poured down from the sky, and the stench of blood filled the air. The vast forest suddenly became eerily quiet, and there was danger everywhere.

“It’s blood! And the flesh is all mushy.”
