Chapter 426: I’m Different From You

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Bo carefully avoided the patrolling beast soldiers and walked into the forest.

It was the middle of the night. The forest was empty.

The moonlight fell on the grass, covering the forest with a thin veil.

Jiang Bo walked for a long time before stopping.

He casually picked a leaf and blew on it.

He blew it three times in a row. After a pause, he blew it again.

A moment later, a tall figure walked out from behind the tree.

When Jiang Bo saw the other party appear, he immediately rushed forward and said obsequiously, “Lord, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”

Huanhuan hid behind the tree and carefully stuck out half her head.

Under the moonlight, she saw the beast standing in front of Jiang Bo. Her pupils couldn’t help but tremble.

It was Xuan Wei!

He wore metal armor and a metal mask. His blue eyes shone coldly in the moonlight.

Why was Xuan Wei meeting Jiang Bo?!

Huanhuan was extremely shocked.

At this moment, Xuan Wei suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction where Huanhuan was hiding!

Huanhuan immediately retracted her head.

However, Xuan Wei was already suspicious. He smelled a familiar scent nearby. It should be Lin Huanhuan’s scent.

He strode toward where Huanhuan was hiding.

Huanhuan quickly took out a lotus seed, stuffed it into her mouth, and swallowed it!

Xuan Wei warily went behind the tree and found that there was no one behind it.

‘Where is she?’

Xuan Wei looked around and even stared at the tree, but he didn’t find any clues.

Even the familiar scent he had smelled before had completely disappeared.

Jiang Bo asked nervously, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing. Perhaps I was hallucinating just now.” Xuan Wei retracted his gaze and looked at Jiang Bo again. “Why did you call me here? Didn’t I tell you not to look for me unless it was important?!”

Jiang Bo quickly explained, “The city lord of Blue Crystal City has been captured. I’m worried that my identity will be exposed.”

“Why are you panicking? They don’t have any evidence. They won’t do anything to you.”

“But I’m very uneasy…”

Xuan Wei was a little impatient. “If you called me here for such a small matter, there’s no need for me to continue staying here.”

He turned to leave, but Jiang Bo quickly stopped him. “Wait, don’t be in a hurry to leave. I have something else to tell you.”

“What is it?”

Jiang Bo carefully took out an animal hide bag, opened it, and took out a piece of black wood. “This is what you gave me last time. I’ve already contacted Witch Doctor Tao Wei for you. He said that this is indeed Divine Wood, but the amount is too little to achieve the effect you want.”

At this moment, in the grass behind the tree, a small grass blade was trying its best to extend itself to get a better look.

After Huanhuan ate the lotus seed just now, she became a grass blade that could not be named. She was lucky enough to escape.

She was shocked again when she saw the black wood in Jiang Bo’s hand.

Why was that piece of wood in Jiang Bo’s hand?

Back in Divine Wood City, the Divine Wood was lost. Bi Huan suspected that Xuan Wei had stolen it.

At that time, Huanhuan still felt that Xuan Wei had been wronged.

Now, it seemed that Bi Huan’s suspicion was right!

The Divine Wood was stolen by Xuan Wei!

Xuan Wei reached out to take the black wood, his gaze cold. “It’s useless. We don’t have to keep it anymore.”

With a little force, he crushed the black wood into powder.

He released his fingers, and the powder dissipated with the wind.

Jiang Bo looked heartbroken. “That was Divine Wood, a very precious material. If you thought it was useless, you could’ve left it to me!”

Xuan Wei said indifferently, “Why should I leave it to you? So that you can continue to harm others?”

“You’re wrong. I was deceived by that old fellow, Tao Wei. He said that he could give me many very precious prescriptions. I believed him, but I was tricked by him instead. I’m neither human nor demon now. They forced me to do those things. I wasn’t able to do anything about it!”

At this point, Jiang Bo stared at Xuan Wei again.

“We’re in the same boat now. You have no choice, just like me. We have to take care of each other in the future. Otherwise, the road ahead will be even harder.”

However, Xuan Wei said, “I’m different from you.”

Jiang Bo curled his lips. “What’s the difference? Aren’t we all being controlled by the demons and have to serve them?”

“I’ve never been controlled by anyone, nor will I serve anyone. Everything I do, I do for myself.”

With that, Xuan Wei left without looking back.

Jiang Bo snorted at his back.

“What the hell?!”

After Jiang Bo left, Huanhuan said, “Little Brat, Xuan Wei is actually related to the demons. Isn’t he here to catch a traitor? Why has he become a traitor now?!”

What kind of development was this?!

The system said, “Calm down. Xuan Wei must have his reasons for this. You’d better look for Bai Di and the others. Find a way to tell them the news.”

“Yes, yes, yes! I’m going to look for Bai Di! I’m going to tell him that his brother has taken the wrong path!”

Huanhuan used all her strength to pull her roots out of the soil and stagger back.

However, before she could go far, she unfortunately encountered a big rabbit.

This was a white rabbit that looked cute but was extremely dangerous as she was a blade of grass right now!

The rabbit blocked the road and stared at the grass in front of it.

Huanhuan was trembling with fear and did not dare to move.

The rabbit opened its mouth and bit at the grass.

Huanhuan was so frightened that she ran!

But how could she be a match for a rabbit? She didn’t get far before the rabbit stepped on her.

The rabbit looked down at the grass, then opened its mouth again and bit at it.

Huanhuan shouted, “Daddy, save me!”

“There’s a special medicine in the mall that can transform you back!”

“When did this medicine appear in the mall?!”

“It wasn’t there before. I secretly changed the data in the mall just now and added it at the last minute. Hurry up. I have to cancel it later, lest the prophet finds out that I helped you cheat.”

“Daddy, I love you!” Huanhuan quickly exchanged the crystals for the special medicine.

The moment the rabbit bit the grass, the lotus seed’s transformation effect was removed!

The blade of grass turned into a person.

The rabbit widened its eyes and looked at the female in front of it in horror. It didn’t understand why the fresh and delicious grass had become a beast taller than it in the blink of an eye!

It was terrified and ran.

Huanhuan wanted to chase after it and teach the rabbit a lesson, but she had to go back to inform the others. She could only let this rabbit off for the time being.

“Don’t let me see you again!” Huanhuan muttered as she got up.

She hurried toward the camp and met Bai Di on the way.

Huanhuan was filled with joy as she ran toward him. “Bai Di!”
