Chapter 293 Discovered
"Do you respect him very much?" Zhang Liang asked, his eyes revealing urban intelligence and insight.
"Of course, Mr. Lin is the most respected person in our area!"
"You are still so young, how can you understand those profound principles? Tell me where Mr. Lin is. I want to have a deep exchange with him."
Zhang Liang admitted that there was some truth in those words, but that kind of wisdom was more suitable for people who had experienced the vicissitudes of life, rather than innocent and inexperienced creatures like the little tree elf.
At the same time, he also really wanted to meet this so-called Mr. Lin. According to Xiao Shulin, Mr. Lin was the most respected elder in the forest. He should have more information about the guardian, which would be helpful for Zhang Liang to challenge the guardian.
"Woo woo~ Mr. Lin, he has already left us... 200,000 years ago."
After the "life return" incident, the old tree that originally carried Mr. Lin's soul also withered and died. Ten thousand years later, not even the remains of it existed. As the little tree elf finished speaking, tears were already sliding down her cheeks.
"Okay, I was just kidding you. Mr. Lin is right. But you can't understand what he means now. Be a man, don't cry, work hard to make yourself strong, and then you will understand what he said." Zhang Liang said to the little tree elf with a firm look in his eyes.
"I'm not crying, I just miss Mr. Lin." The little tree elf covered his eyes with his wooden arms to prevent Zhang Liang from seeing his tears.
It seems that this little guy hasn't understood what Mr. Lin and himself said. Forget it, let him cry for a while and vent, Zhang Liang thought to himself.
"Hey, cry out loud if you want to, but stand up like a man after you're done crying." Zhang Liang pried open the little tree elf's hands and said seriously.
The little tree elf was startled by Zhang Liang's actions and looked up at him, but Zhang Liang had already turned around and gradually walked out of the little tree elf's sight.
Tears blurred his vision again, and the little tree elf could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
Zhang Liang strolled in the forest on the edge of the city. Indeed, the green tranquility was comfortable. He had silently promised in his heart to help the forest. The loneliness and despair should not be borne by these innocent creatures.
Zhang Liang looked for a secluded place to rest and feel the rhythm of nature. After all, this was only the fourth level, and he didn't know when he would see such a natural and harmonious scene again.
As he walked, he found a corner suitable for meditation. There, the branches and leaves of towering trees were like green curtains, gently brushing the vast expanse of land, chasing the clouds floating over the forest. A gurgling stream flowed quietly into the distance, and fish in the water jumped out of the water from time to time.
With such beautiful scenery, tranquility and harmony, Zhang Liang leaned against a tree and soon fell asleep under the shade of the tree.
"Hey, wake up, wake up quickly." A clear and ethereal voice came from all around, like spring water falling into the heart.
Zhang Liang opened his eyes and looked around, but could not find the source of the sound, and the sound seemed to have disappeared when he woke up.
"Go away, stop splashing water on me, it's annoying." A soft female voice came from nearby, as sweet as a stream and captivating.
"No, I won't. Haha." Another female voice followed, which was different from the previous one and was a little more cheerful.
Along with the beautiful vocals, there was also the sound of splashing water. In this place, besides him, is there anyone else? I almost forgot that all the creatures here have spirituality and are eloquent.
However, Zhang Liang decided to go and see if the voice that woke him up in his dream was related to this. He pushed aside the bushes in front of him and looked towards the stream.
Two girls were seen playing in the lake to the east. The first girl who caught Zhang Liang's eye was the one with her back to him. Because of her position, he naturally noticed her exposed beauty and her slender waist like a willow branch.
"Don't look at what is inappropriate. Don't look at what is inappropriate." Zhang Liang said silently in his heart, but his eyes never moved away.
The girl with her back to him kept scooping up water and splashing it at the other person, occasionally letting out a silver bell-like laugh.
Although the other girl was facing Zhang Liang, in order to avoid being splashed, most of her body was hidden underwater, leaving only her face and half of her shoulders exposed, through which her jade-like skin could be vaguely seen.
Was it a trap, or were there really two unsuspecting girls? Zhang Liang had no way of knowing. Forgive him for living in this world for so many years, but facing such a scene, he could not help but take a few more glances.
The beautiful snake in the previous level can only be said to be too low-level in temptation.
However, in just a few seconds, Zhang Liang quickly regained his composure, closed his eyes, turned and left.
When Zhang Liang was about to leave, he accidentally stepped on some dry grass, which made a squeaking sound.
Not good, Zhang Liang cried secretly, he was also surprised, he didn't notice it when he came, was he too careless and didn't pay attention, maybe. And the sound naturally reached the ears of the girl playing by the river.
“Who’s there?”
"who is it?"
The two girls spoke almost at the same time, with a hint of pity in their voices.
"I mean no offense. I was resting here when I heard a strange noise and came here.
I really didn't mean to offend the two ladies, please forgive me." Zhang Liang found that he had been discovered, and walked out generously, speaking with his eyes closed out of politeness.
When the two women saw Zhang Liang closing his eyes, they quickly covered their chests, swam quickly to the shore, picked up their clothes and put them on quickly.
Soon, two women, fully dressed, appeared on the shore.
"How can you be so rude? Even if you only listen to the sound, you can tell that these are two women taking a bath, right?" said one of the women in a light pink gauze dress.
Her long black hair falls naturally, her delicate face is engraved with beautiful features, and her bright and clear eyes reveal her intelligence and charm...
"I didn't mean to offend you two ladies. I hope you can forgive me." Zhang Yang raised his hand slightly and apologized politely. He really couldn't find a more convincing apology.
"Sister, don't blame him. He didn't mean it." The woman in the pink dress advised. Her sister who was slightly shorter than her said.
The woman who was speaking was wearing a fashionable purple dress. Different from the gentle woman in pink, her mouth curves elegantly when she smiles, and her eyes reveal all kinds of charm.
Her long dark purple hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, with water droplets hanging on the ends of her hair. Her oval face was slightly chubby, making her look round and cute. Under her pointed chin, her eyebrows were as dark as distant mountains, and her pupils flashed a subtle purple light.
"Forget it, I'll let you go this time. You can open your eyes now." The woman in pink said as she gently stroked her black hair.
Zhang Yang slowly opened his eyes and looked at the two women. Previously, he had not been able to see their faces clearly due to the bushes and the distance. But now, looking at them up close, he was shocked by their beauty.
With such a stunning appearance, even celebrities would be eclipsed if placed in a bustling city. Her appearance alone is enough to captivate people.
Zhang Yang immediately realized that something was wrong. How could anyone be so beautiful? Oh, this was not the human world, so no matter how beautiful they were, they could only be demons or spirits.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yang silently recited the formula and used his internal force to protect his body. If such a beauty really had malicious intentions, he would not be able to kill her. By activating his internal force, he could at least prevent her from plotting against him.
"Since the two ladies have forgiven me, I will take my leave first." It is better to have less trouble than more. No matter how beautiful it is, it is just an illusion. Thinking of this, Zhang Yang planned to leave as soon as possible.
"What's the hurry? You want to leave just after apologizing for doing something wrong? What do you think of us sisters?" The pink-dressed lady kept nagging.
Even though the words were a bit rude, Zhang Yang still found them pleasant to the ears.
Whatever, even if they are demons, just be careful and see what tricks they can play. With a beautiful woman by your side, what does it matter if you are plotted against?
"My name is Zhang Yang. I wonder how the two ladies plan to deal with this matter." Zhang Yang raised his eyes, looked directly at the girl in purple, and spoke.
"Zhang Yang? Are you the new challenger?" the woman in pink asked anxiously.
"It's me." Zhang Yang replied calmly.
"My name is Mu Xue, and this is my sister Zi Qian. I am sorry for offending you because I didn't know your identity just now." After learning Zhang Yang's identity, Mu Xue's attitude became much more respectful. He is the savior of this forest and should not be treated lightly.
However, they did receive the task of testing the challengers. Zhang Yang, are you worthy of the title of "savior"?
Zi Qian had also heard of this person and immediately bowed.
Mu Xue, Zi Qian, is indeed as her name suggests. Sister has smooth skin, distant eyes, and a cool temperament, like white snow in winter.
But her younger sister is lively and smart, with purple hair and purple eyes, and is as delicate as purple grass.
"Mr. Zhang Yang, we sisters have all heard about your plan to help us destroy the giant pot on the cliff and save our souls. You have finally come to the human world, so let us treat you well. My sister's cooking skills are great." Zi Qian said with a smile, her bright eyes shining with gem-like luster, very charming.
"Okay." Zhang Yang replied calmly. He was thinking about the names of the two people when he heard Zi Qian's words. Zhang Yang naturally accepted the invitation of the beautiful woman.
"Then, Mr. Zhang Yang, why don't you come to our sisters' humble abode and have a seat. You are our savior, so take this as our thanks." Mu Xue politely invited Zhang Yang.
"No, I'd better go practice. The ten-day deadline is already halfway through, and I should practice hard." Faced with the invitation from the beauties in front of him, Zhang Yang didn't know what their intentions were and instinctively resisted.
"Oh, there is no rush to practice. You have to help us a lot. It won't be too late to practice after having a simple meal. Otherwise, we will be uneasy." Zi Qian said coquettishly.
It seems that I can't refuse anymore, so I'll just let them be and see what other tricks they have.
"Mr. Zhang Yang, you are the challenger, so tell us what the first few levels are like. We have been living here and want to go out and take a look, but we can't." Zi Qian said, and the light that had just flashed in her eyes seemed to dim a little.
"The world outside is actually similar to here..." Zhang Yang roughly described his experiences from the first level to the fourth level now.
Mu Xue led the way quietly. Compared with Zi Qian, she was more lively. She listened to Zhang Yang telling interesting stories and talked and laughed all the way. She ran to the front and then came back. When she heard Zhang Yang describing new things, she would gesture.
Soon, they came to a small wooden house. Zi Qian quickly walked forward, pushed open the wooden door, and invited Zhang Yang in.
"What exactly has changed about you two sisters?" Standing in front of the wooden door, Zhang Yang stopped and asked.
"Still got discovered?" Mu Xue smiled self-deprecatingly.
Big sister, with the way you guys appearing, plus my purple hair, any normal person would think you are fairies, right?
Zhang Yang thought so in his heart but didn't say it out loud.
"I am a small purple snake, and my sister is a lily. Before I became a human, I lay beside her roots day and night.
“But my sister turned into a human form first, and I had to accompany her, so I improved my cultivation and turned into a human form as soon as possible.
"Hehe, but because I forcibly improved my cultivation and violated the Heavenly Rules, I retained some of my original features, such as the purple hair and purple eyes." Zi Qian winked at Zhang Yang and continued,
"But I think this purple hair looks pretty good." Mu Xue added softly.
"I think so too." Hearing her sister's praise, Ziqian's smile became even brighter.
"So that's how it is." Zhang Yang said calmly.
It turns out that one of them is a lily flower demon and the other is a snake demon. Why does he always encounter snake demons? Zhang Yang smiled helplessly.
