Chapter 697: Proud Flower Spirit
Slusha led the team of travelers towards the Sharp Blade Forest. It was a desolate place filled with ominous purple mist, which looked very unsettling.
"Wow... this purple mist is glowing! It feels highly poisonous!" Paimon covered his mouth and nose and huddled behind his friends, reminding Su and Kong to be careful.
"Don't make such useless noises," Silusa said disdainfully, "Bai Piaopiao should learn more from the calm and composed attitude of my other two Lords of Praise..."
Su hugged his friend tightly and trembled, "Wow... I have been enduring it, this purple mist is so scary!"
Silusa choked and used her own strength to disperse the purple mist. "Well, it seems that humans are not as strong as flower spirits. Next time, if you feel uncomfortable, you should speak up."
Kong lowered his head to look at the girl who was shaking with laughter while hugging his waist, and asked her with his eyes: Is it fun to tease the innocent flower spirit?
Su gave him a positive answer with his eyes: It's fun! The innocent and tsundere little elf is the most fun to tease!
Paimon was speechless for two seconds, then sighed, "You are unexpectedly tough on the outside but soft on the inside... You are a little hypocritical."
Silusa: "How bold! How bold! It is precisely because of your attitude, Bai Piaopiao, that you cannot gain the favor of Lady Silusa!"
Sulusa and Paimon started arguing again, so Su and Kong simply went to check out the situation around them.
There were no signs of living creatures nearby, and twisted thorns blocked off a small area. Su waved and called for Slusha.
"That's right," Slusha felt the power of the thorns, "Humph, Michel, you foolish thorn follower. It looks like you are suffering now."
Slusha said that the purple smoke was the power escaping from the abyss. The fact that this power could escape and wreak havoc here meant that Michelle, who was guarding this place, was weak.
Paimon didn't have time to argue with Sulusa, "Ah? Then let's save her quickly!"
A group of beast hounds suddenly jumped out of the purple mist that was eroding the thorn barrier. Slusha's spiritual light condensed into a flower-shaped platform that lifted all the members of the traveler team to a high altitude. Then bombs flew out from her wing-like sleeves and blasted these dangerous monsters to pieces.
"Oh, oh, oh!" Paimon looked at Sulusa with admiration, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful! You're so strong, Sulusa!"
Silusha was so flattered that her lips curled up. She pretended to be modest and said, "This is nothing. As long as you follow me well, you will definitely witness a lot, and then sing my poems everywhere!"
Paimon: "Oh... No, I'm not a bard. I can't do this job."
The corners of Silusa's mouth that were raised straightened instantly, "Bai Piaopiao, you have been stripped of the title of Lord of Praise!"
After a few quarrels and walking a distance, it took some time for the group to reach the depths of the thorn barrier. A flower spirit with thorns on its head was bound by thick purple mist and could not move.
Slusha flew over and circled the other party twice. "Michel, you foolish thorn follower. Look at how weak you are. Why don't you quickly pray to Lord Slusha to save your life?"
"Slusha? The Slusha who accompanies humans, the lost Slusha." Michelle opened her eyes, looked at Slusha and the group of travelers, then closed them weakly again.
Paimon flew back to his friends and muttered, "Uh...it seems like she has something else to say, and she doesn't seem very happy with us."
Kong: "Maybe it's just like what happened to Zurwan before. He thinks we are in the same group with the Jiaolun Group."
It seems that not only Zulwan, but Michelle is also dissatisfied with the fact that Slusha is so close to the people of the Correction Group.
Su: "That group is really not good people. Not only do they kill people when they disagree with each other, they also deceive Hua Ling."
The three members of the Traveler Team all gave a cross to the Jiaolun Group.
The three members of the Traveler Team were fine, but Slusha was furious with Michelle's attitude.
"It seems that you have not only forgotten to be grateful, but you have also lost a lot of rationality!"
Slusha waved her wing-like petal-shaped hands to show off the Traveler Team, and boasted to Michelle: "They are the Lords of Praise recognized by Senior Zulwan! They are my Lords of Praise!"
Michelle opened her eyes with difficulty and looked at the three members of the Traveler Team carefully. "Is that so? Congratulations, Slusha."
Slusha felt much calmer now. She snorted coldly and used her power to purify the purple mist that was surrounding Michelle.
The three members of the Traveler Team all started to flatter each other, "Lady Sulusa is magnanimous! Lady Sulusa is brave and fearless! Lady Sulusa is so adorable!"
Slusha was so intoxicated by the show that she felt dizzy as if she was drunk, and she couldn't stop smiling.
"Hey, now I really think she's a little cute." Paimon whispered to Su, "But! I'm still far behind Paimon!"
"Hey, our Paimon is still so cute when he's jealous." Su pulled Kong together to express his opinion, "So! We will always like Paimon more!"
So the elf, who looked dizzy and happy as if he had drunk alcohol, turned into two.
Michelle and Slusha thanked them, got acquainted with the traveler team, and looked worriedly in the direction of the sea of nectar flowers.
Michelle: "If it weren't for you this time, I would need a lot more time to accumulate strength... But I don't know if I can defeat the increasingly powerful filth."
"Humph! Purifying the heavenly phenomena of the Burning Truth is my mission. You, a sinful body stained with filth, don't need to worry about it. If Senior Zulwan hadn't asked me to do so, I wouldn't have bothered to come and see you." Slusha ordered arrogantly, "Now, follow me."
"Sulusa, why are you being so rude again?" Paimon asked in confusion, "And what does 'guilty body' mean?"
Michelle, who had a scar on his left eye, took the initiative to explain: "Oh, because I have been infected by filth and cannot be tolerated by the flower spirits. I am also not allowed to return to the nectar pond."
Paimon was horrified. "Huh?! Just because I was injured in the battle with Abyss, I'm being treated like this...?"
Su Hekong guessed that it was very likely that the erosion and pollution of the abyss would become serious enough that the flower spirit would turn into a monster?
In order to avoid contamination or even damage to the nectar pool and the myriad mother trees, the flower spirits do not accept injured flower spirits.
Even though he had a rough guess in his mind, Sora still couldn't accept this result and the treatment Michelle received.
Sora said seriously: "Michelle's injury was caused by protection. It is an honorable injury."
Michelle smiled for the first time, calm and composed. "Thank you, you reminded me of the time when I had the Lord of Praise."
Silusa snorted coldly, "Humph! If you still had the Lord of Prayers, he would help you perform the sin-purifying procession ritual, but it's a pity that you don't have it anymore."
The Traveler Team was very surprised. "Does Slusha mean that Michelle can still be saved?!"
Slusha was very alert, "What do you mean by this? You are all my worshippers!"
Paimon poked Sulusa's puffed up face and said, "Sulusa, don't be so stingy~"
"Hmph!" Slusha turned around.
"Silusa, you are not a child anymore, why are you so possessive?" Paimon walked around and continued to poke her, "Our Su was not as protective of his food as you are now in the beginning!"
Su:?
Upon hearing this, Sulusa became even more angry, and Su also put his hands on his hips.
Seeing that Paimon offended both of them with just one sentence, Kong had to take action.
