Chapter 355: Demonized

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Bi Huan and Qian Ye's actions angered the divine tree. "How stubborn!" The divine tree threw out countless wooden spikes at Bi Huan and Qian Ye! Qian Ye relied on his small size to nimbly avoid the wooden spikes, but Bi Huan was not so lucky.

The white elephant's body was extremely huge, and his defense was very strong. His movements were also very slow. He stood there like a live target. There were several wooden spikes stuck in his body, and blood flowed out of the wounds.

Even so, the white elephant still had no intention of retreating. He slammed into the divine tree again!

The divine tree could not move. It suddenly became several times thicker and collided with the white elephant. There was a deafening sound. The ground shook violently as if there was an earthquake. The white elephant's tusks stabbed into the divine tree. The divine tree was injured. It wouldn't bleed, but it could feel the pain. The divine tree stabbed its sharp branches at the white elephant! The white elephant raised his head and swung his long trunk, whipping the branch in another direction. Taking advantage of the fact that the divine tree was entangled by the white elephant, Qian Ye tried to cross the divine tree and rush out of the forest to chase after Huanhuan and the others.

But before he could take a few steps, the roots under the divine tree's feet suddenly appeared and wrapped around Qian Ye tightly!

Seeing that the beast king had been captured, the guards finally snapped out of their daze and rushed forward to help.

Xue Hui stood where she was, staring blankly at the scene in front of her.

The beast king and the high priest were leading their men to attack their guardian, while their saintess lay quietly on the ground. Her corpse had long rotted, and there were only bones left.

Trees were constantly cut down, and the Moonlight Mushrooms were trampled. The forest that used to be like a paradise had now become a battlefield for them to kill each other. How ridiculous!

In addition to the beasts who were loyal to the beast king and the high priest, there were also some beasts who were still at a loss. They did not know who they should help. In any case, they could not be ruthless to the divine tree or the high priest.

One of them couldn't help but ask when he saw the sneer on Xue Hui's face.

"What do you think we should do now, Lady Xue Hui? Who should we help?"

"I don't know. Help whoever you want." Xue Hui was disheartened. She bent down and picked up the remains of the saintess. Then, she spread her wings and flew away.

According to the customs of the Divine Wood clan, after a person died, they had to be buried underground and a sapling would be planted on their grave.

It was said that after death, their souls would be entrusted to the trees to continue protecting their descendants.

Xue Hui didn't know if the Holy Lady's soul was still there, or if she would still be willing to protect her descendants. All she could do now was to give the saintess a proper burial.

The remains of the saintess were buried in the ground, and Xue Hui planted a sapling for her. Tianzhi Tree was the most common tree in the Divine Wood City. It symbolized forgiveness and rebirth. Xue Hui looked at the sapling in front of her and sighed. "May you forgive us our sins and be reborn." A beast ran over in a hurry. "Lady Xue Hui, something happened!" Xue Hui pinched her temples wearily. "What happened?" "The forest is on fire!" Xue Hui's expression changed. "What?!"

She immediately spread her wings and flew toward the forest. With the height advantage, she saw that a huge fire was indeed burning at the other end of the forest.

The fire was spreading toward the Divine Wood City. Xue Hui flapped her wings and flew toward the sea of fire. She was fast and flew to the edge of the forest in the blink of an eye.

Below the forest was a raging sea of fire. The soaring flames almost burned half the sky red. The thick smoke was suffocating.

Xue Hui dodged the smoke and looked down.

It was actually the army of the City of in,000 Beasts!

They were ordered to chase after Lin Huanhuan and Xuan Wei. After chasing them for a long time, they finally found a clue. They thought that they would be able to catch Lin Huanhuan and Xuan Wei soon, but they were stopped outside the forest by the divine tree and could not enter.

In their anger, they set fire to the forest. When the forest was completely burned, Lin Huanhuan and Xuan Wei would definitely come out!

In the past, either the high priest or the divine tree could completely extinguish the fire before it spread.

However, Bi Huan and the divine tree were still facing each other. Neither of them could divert their attention to extinguish the fire now.

Coincidentally, the wind was strong today, and the fire spread quickly in the forest. If this continued, not to mention this forest, but even the Divine Wood City would be burned down! Xue Hui was anxious. She immediately flapped her wings and found the divine tree and Bi Huan in the forest. Bi Huan wanted to chase after Huanhuan, but he was stopped by the divine tree again and again. The white elephant was getting agitated. His green eyes were bloodshot again. His scarlet eyes looked as terrifying as the devil. Xue Hui said loudly, "Stop fighting. Someone has set fire to the forest. Go put out the fire!" Hearing this, Qian Ye's expression immediately changed.

However, Bi Huan did not seem to hear Xue Hui's words. He continued to stubbornly charge at the divine tree. Even though he was bleeding from his head, he still insisted on knocking down this big tree in front of him!

Qian Ye nimbly climbed onto the white elephant's back and grabbed its fan-like ears. "Calm down. Go put out the fire first!"

The white elephant ignored his words and continued to hit the divine tree. He did not care if he was injured. The trunk of the divine tree was already scarred by his collision. Qian Ye called out to Bi Huan several times, but he did not react. Xue Hui suddenly pointed at Bi Huan's eyes and cried out, "The high priest's eyesa€: have turned red!" Qian Ye immediately jumped into a tree beside him and jumped past a few more trees. After fixing his angle, he could finally see the white elephant's eyes. His eyes had gone from green to red. The blood-red color emitted a cold, fierce light. Qian Ye's expression changed drastically. "He's demonized!" Demonization referred to the process of ordinary beasts transforming into demons. As if to confirm Qian Ye's words, dense dark red patterns suddenly appeared on the white elephant's body. They were the unique magic patterns of the demons. After Bi Huan completed his demonization, he had completely become a demon! Xue Hui looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief. "How did this happenfie The divine tree sensed the demonic aura emanating from Bi Huan and questioned in a low voice, "You actually made a deal with the devil." In this world, one wouldn't gain benefits for nothing. Back then, Bi Huan secretly made a deal with the demons and sold the most precious thing to Tao Wei. Tao Wei then told him to use the saintess's life to provide for Yu Ying. They even made a contract. Although Yu Ying died in the end, the life-for-life method Tao Wei provided did work. Hence, the contract took effect. All these years, Bi Huan had been using the Divine Wood to suppress the aura of the demon race in his body so that he wouldn't completely demonize.

He had hidden it very successfully. If not for this accident, he might have been able to hide it until he died without anyone discovering his secret.

Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world..
