364: Chapter 364 Traitor

Whoosh!

"This is bad! This is bad! We fell into a trap. Those two Immortal Kings are living dead refined by the Heavenly God Demon Tree. My Senior Brother is currently fighting the Heavenly God Demon Tree. Hurry and help him!"

Just as Lin Yang and Yan Feng were surprised by the strange yellow mud that the mysterious Immortal King had transformed into, a whooshing sound came from the distant sky. Hua Wuyan's figure approached from afar, quickly arriving before them.

At this moment, Hua Wuyan's pretty face was pale, filled with panic, as she looked at the two anxiously: "Lin Yang, Yan Feng, we fell into a trap. Those two Immortal King Giants were fakes. It was all the Heavenly God Demon Tree playing tricks behind the scenes!"

"Heavenly God Demon Tree?"

Hearing this, both Lin Yang and Yan Feng revealed strange expressions.

"That's right, that heavenly god tree doesn't know what evil it's been afflicted with. It has now been demonized and turned into a demonic tree! The two Immortal King Giants we saw before were living dead it created with its Spells."

"We unfortunately fell into that demonic tree's ambush and suffered heavy casualties. It turned all our people into nourishment and devoured them. Even the two Immortal King Fellow Daoists from Chiming Heaven and Leiming Heaven couldn't escape. Only my Senior Brother and I luckily survived!"

Hearing Hua Wuyan's anxious words, everyone present changed their expressions in shock.

"Why are you the only one? Where is Qin Wuliang!?"

Yan Feng glanced behind Hua Wuyan, but there was no one there, so he quickly asked.

"Senior Brother is currently entangled with the Heavenly God Demon Tree to avenge everyone, but he's not a match for it alone, so he sent me to seek your help. Hurry and come with me to save him!" Hua Wuyan said urgently.

"What?! He's fighting the heavenly god tree alone right now!?"

Yan Feng and the others' expressions changed again upon hearing this, then they looked at Lin Yang, "commander-in-chief, the situation is critical, we must go save him!"

After listening, Lin Yang calmly looked at Hua Wuyan and asked, "This isn't our pre-arranged regrouping point. How did you find us?"

"I..."

Hua Wuyan was startled by the question.

"Yeah, how did you find us?"

Beside them, Yan Feng and the others also felt a bit strange.

Because the rules of this world were peculiar, even an Immortal King Giant's Mental Energy couldn't detect too far. So, to regroup after separating, they had agreed on a meeting place beforehand.

However, their team had pursued the mysterious Immortal King this far, having long since left the meeting point by an unknown distance.

Logically speaking, Hua Wuyan shouldn't have been able to find them.

But judging by her arrival earlier, she clearly knew they were here.

This was truly a bit strange.

Stared at by everyone's suspicious gazes, a hint of panic flashed in Hua Wuyan's eyes.

The next moment, she suddenly raised her voice and said, "Are you all out of your minds? Why are you asking about this? Didn't you hear me say my Senior Brother is in danger? Hurry and come with me to save him!"

Although somewhat displeased with Hua Wuyan's attitude, Yan Feng was still someone who prioritized the bigger picture. He pondered, then said to Lin Yang, "Qin Wuliang might not have returned with us because he was trying to hold back the Heavenly God Demon Tree. I think we still need to hurry over."

Lin Yang nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Regardless of Qin Wuliang's life or death, since the heavenly god tree now had a confirmed whereabouts, even if it was a Dragon's Den or a Tiger's Lair, they had to go and investigate...

A moment later.

"Bang bang bang..."

Lin Yang and the others arrived in the misty valley, faintly hearing intense fighting sounds coming from within.

Inside the valley, a blood-stained young figure was battling a strange ancient tree.

"It's Qin Wuliang!" someone shouted.

Just then, Qin Wuliang in the valley also looked back, and upon seeing Lin Yang and the others, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face, "You've come just in time. This Heavenly God Demon Tree has been injured by me. Hurry and help me suppress it!"

Yan Feng and the others scanned the ravaged valley, finding indeed signs of a fierce battle having just taken place, and the aura of the Heavenly God Demon Tree was also fluctuating.

All the sights confirmed that Qin Wuliang's words were true.

"Good! Brother Qin, please hold on for a moment, we will come to assist you immediately!"

Yan Feng and the others had no doubts. Even though they had some disagreements before, the heavenly god tree concerned the fate of the Nine Heavens, so they naturally united as one and immediately went forward to provide support.

"Did I really overthink it?"

Even Lin Yang himself was a bit confused. Looking at Qin Wuliang's blood-stained appearance, he had clearly experienced a fierce battle, not just putting on an act.

"Let's go help too."

Lin Yang waved his hand, and he, Shen Youchu, and the others flew down together, heading towards the battlefield below.

Boom!

However, just as Lin Yang and the others' attention was drawn to the Heavenly God Demon Tree, a violent fluctuation suddenly came from behind them.

Initially, everyone didn't pay attention.

Because it was Hua Wuyan's Immortal King power roaring, everyone subconsciously thought she was eager to help Qin Wuliang.

A vast torrent of spiritual power surged forward majestically, indeed coming from Hua Wuyan.

However, that powerful and unmatched torrent of spiritual power, after rushing out, did not charge towards the Heavenly God Demon Tree below, but instead targeted Lin Yang and the others, who had their backs to her.

"Puff puff puff..."

The next moment, several sounds of spitting blood rang out, and many people fell downwards like birds with broken wings.

Then, several thick branches suddenly shot out from the misty valley, piercing through the falling people. In an instant, they were dragged back into the depths of the valley floor.

Immediately after, a chilling chewing sound came from within the valley.

In just a few moments, those people's auras dissipated before they even had time to scream.

This sudden scene caused Lin Yang, Yan Feng, and Shen Youchu's pupils to contract.

Perhaps because all three of them were Immortal King realm cultivators, Hua Wuyan's sudden attack just now did not target them, but only ambushed the others from behind.

This led to the three of them failing to detect Hua Wuyan's abnormality behind them in advance.

"Hua Wuyan, what are you doing!?" Yan Feng suddenly turned around and demanded sharply.

Hua Wuyan sneered, not answering, but looked down and smiled sweetly, "Senior Brother, Esteemed Heavenly God Demon Tree, there are three people left here. That female Immortal King can be left to me to deal with, and as for Lin Yang and Yan Feng, I'll have to trouble you two to take action."

"What!? Hua Wuyan, do you know what you're saying?!"

Yan Feng's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

Lin Yang, however, frowned slightly and looked downwards. At the same time Hua Wuyan made her move, the battle between the Heavenly God Demon Tree and Qin Wuliang also stopped with uncanny synchronicity.

"Hehe, Qin Wuliang, this Junior Sister of yours is much more cunning than you. Fine, playing games with you is truly boring. This Venerable One will personally test how much strength this brat, who could even defeat you, possesses. As for that stone brat from Giant Rock Heaven, I'll leave him to you. You don't have any more problems, do you?"

From within the mist came the Heavenly God Demon Tree's strange laughter, causing Lin Yang, Yan Feng, and Shen Youchu's expressions to slightly change.

"Yes, Esteemed Heavenly God Demon Tree!"

Immediately after, as Qin Wuliang's low, slow response echoed, Lin Yang's three expressions gradually darkened.
