Chapter 480 Uprooted
The people who were fighting fiercely with the Fire Demon Tiger and the Fire Demon Tiger all shifted their attention to the Fairy Fruit Tree.
When Gu Er heard the shout, he thought to himself that something was wrong and immediately whispered, "We've been discovered, run."
Without caring about the fairy fruit that he had not yet picked, he turned around and ran away.
Gu Qi also quickly stuffed all the fairy fruits in his hand into the space and ran towards Gu Er.
Gu Shisan was also calm and unhurried. While running away, he picked two fairy fruits and then turned around and fled in the direction of his companions.
When the Fire Demon Tiger saw that the fairy fruit he was guarding was stolen, he became furious.
It let out an angry roar towards the sky, and the sound made the surrounding trees tremble.
It didn't bother to deal with the people in front of it, and turned around and quickly chased after the three people who stole the fruit.
While running, it would occasionally spit out several flames from its mouth. The flames were like burning arrows, cutting through the air and shooting towards the three people with scorching heat.
The three of them were desperately running away in front, and the Fire Demon Tiger was chasing them closely. Suddenly, a flame attack brushed past the corner of Gu Qi's clothes, and the powerful spiritual power fluctuations affected them.
Instantly, the cloaking charms on their bodies flashed and then became ineffective. The figures of the three people were exposed to everyone without any cover.
When Yan Xiao saw the three men in black who suddenly appeared, his eyes were stern and he shouted, "Men in black, wearing masks, they are the ones who often rob various forces during this period."
Huang Xiner was so angry that her face turned red. She gritted her teeth and said, "Damn it! How dare you steal our fairy fruit."
Song Jiangmo stared at the three people who were fleeing and calmly analyzed: "Chase them first, their cultivation is only in the middle and late stages of Shattering Void."
As he spoke, he took the lead in using his body skills to chase in the direction the three people were fleeing.
Gu Er, Gu Shisan and Gu Qi were running desperately. Behind them, a huge fire tiger was chasing them with bared fangs and claws. There was a bloodthirsty light flashing in its eyes. Every roar made the surrounding leaves fall.
Behind the Fire Demon Tiger, there were several figures following closely, led by Huang Xiner and Song Jiangmo.
Gu Er looked anxious, with beads of sweat on his forehead. He ran wildly while shouting at the top of his lungs, "Thirteen, teleport formation!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Shisan quickly took out a formation ball that emitted a mysterious light from his space ring, continuously input spiritual power into it, and said loudly: "You two, stay closer to me, and prepare to teleport!"
Gu Er and Gu Qi did not dare to delay for even a second and rushed to Gu Shisan's side in a few steps.
Just when the Fire Demon Tiger was about to pounce on them, a dazzling light burst out from the formation ball, instantly enveloping the three of them.
In a flash of light, the three figures on the spot disappeared without a trace.
The fire demon tiger suddenly stopped and its huge body drew a deep groove on the ground.
It looked at the empty space ahead and roared angrily, its voice echoing in the forest.
Then, it lowered its head and sniffed the ground, and with the unique scent of the fairy fruit, began to track the three people.
When Huang Xiner arrived, she only saw the back of the Fire Demon Tiger leaving.
She gnashed her teeth in anger, stamped her feet fiercely and said, "It was indeed those little thieves! They actually let them get away!"
Song Jiangmo frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Don't chase them. There are still fairy fruits there. While the Fire Demon Tiger is chasing those people, we should go back and get the fairy fruits. This is the most important thing."
Although Huang Xiner was unwilling, she also knew that Song Jiangmo was right, so she snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, let them go for now. I'll settle the score with them when I get the fairy fruit!"
On the other side, Gu Li and Mu Yunxi were in another direction of the forest, moving quickly towards the location of the fairy fruit tree.
Mu Yunxi had sharp eyes and immediately saw the messy footprints and broken branches on the ground ahead. She quickly said, "There are traces of a battle here. Judging from the traces, it just happened."
Gu Li didn't care: "Don't worry about it, just take the tree away first."
As he spoke, the entire fairy fruit tree was uprooted.
Afterwards, she quickly put the fairy fruit tree into her own space and asked the small pavilion in the space to help find a safe place to plant the tree.
Just after doing all this, Gu Li keenly noticed that someone was coming towards this side.
Her expression froze, and she whispered, "Someone is back, Yun Xi, come here."
Mu Yunxi understood what he meant and walked a few steps to Gu Li's side. The two of them disappeared in an instant and entered the chaotic space.
Not long after, Yan Xiao, Huang Xiner and others arrived at the location of the fairy fruit tree.
When Yan Xiao saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "The tree is gone!"
I saw that where the fairy fruit tree originally grew, there was a huge hole, and the surrounding soil was still very fresh.
Huang Xiner's eyes widened, and she cursed angrily, "Who is the wicked one who pulled up the tree? How dare you ruin my good deeds!"
Song Jiangmo's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "They still have people, we have been fooled."
Shui Wanqin also frowned: "Who are these people? They specialize in robbing people from major forces."
Song Jiangmo asked suspiciously, "Could it be someone from the Divine Spirit Sect?"
After all, the Divine Spirit Sect can only rely on the spiritual herbs it grows to survive.
Shui Wanqin thought for a while and then said, "It's unlikely. If it was someone from the Divine Spirit Sect, we would definitely know about it, and the Pavilion Master and his men would also send people to kill them."
Huang Xiner was furious when she heard this and shouted, "Who cares who he is? Chase him! He dared to steal my things. He is tired of living!"
The other five people had no objection either. They all used their skills to follow her to chase after Gu Er and the other two who had escaped. After all, the Fairy Fruit was indeed their important mission target this time, so how could they give it up so easily?
Huang Xiner, Shui Wanqin, An Jinyu, Song Jiangmo, Yan Xiao,
After Huang Xiner, Song Jiangmo and the others completely disappeared from sight and the surroundings regained the unique tranquility of the forest, Gu Li and Mu Yunxi stepped out of the chaotic space.
Mu Yunxi frowned slightly, her eyes full of doubt, and asked softly: "Is it the Shadow Guards? Their style of behavior is somewhat similar."
Gu Li narrowed his eyes slightly, looked in the direction where everyone had just left, and said after a moment of silence: "It should be."
Mu Yunxi was puzzled, and shook her head gently, and continued: "Weren't they told to target people from medium-sized forces? Why are they here to snatch people from big forces?"
Gu Li looked calm: "They will always misbehave sometimes."
After she finished speaking, she tapped the ground with her toes and ran quickly in the direction where those people left like a ghost.
Seeing this, Mu Yunxi did not dare to delay for even a second. She mobilized her spiritual power and followed closely behind.
The dense branches and leaves swept past them quickly, and the wind whistled in their ears.
While running, Gu Li quickly took out the sound transmission note, and the spiritual power flowed between his fingers, activating the power of the sound transmission note, and sent a message to all the shadow guards: "Who among you picked the fairy fruit in the Oblivion Forest? I'm here."
