*Swosh... Swosh...*
Two arrows shot towards Hu Qiaomu, but she immediately used her aura to block them before grabbing them both and swiftly shooting them back in the direction they came from. However, two other arrows immediately shot out and collided with the two, causing them to explode at the same time.
*Swosh... Swosh...*
Once again, countless tree roots attacked Hu Qiaomu, but she dodged their attacks again and again. She continued to use her weapon to destroy them, but she did not take her eyes off Sabina and Zhang Xiaolong [3]. 'What the hell are they thinking? Why are they using weak attacks to attack me? Could they be setting up a trap for me?
Zhang Xiaolong [3] faintly smiled and used the forest manipulation ability, shocking Hu Qiaomu as countless trees suddenly burst out of the ground and surrounded her, quickly forming a small man-made forest. He also used plant manipulation, which he mimicked from Lillea, and those trees immediately came out of the ground and walked like humans.
Zhang Xiaolong [3] then used the plant generation, an ability he mimicked from Milia, to create some man-eating plants. He also created some poisonous plants, but not ones with deadly poisons.
Although she had seen it before when Zhang Xiaolong [3] trapped Pang De, Sabina was still amazed by his ability to create all of that. However, she remembered his previous explanation about his soul manipulation ability that he mimicked from Oz the 2nd, leading her to believe that he had mimicked the abilities of the other dryads.
*Swoosh... Swoosh...*
'Damn it!' Hu Qiaomu cursed as she continued to dodge the trees' attacks, but they continued to regenerate no matter how fast she destroyed them. She also protected her face with qi, especially after some of those poisonous plants released poisonous gas, filling the man-made forest. 'Shit! That dryad's ability is really annoying!
I have to get rid of her first, or I'll never be able to catch that brat, and I'll run out of Qi because of these damn trees.'
Unfortunately, Hu Qiaomu misunderstood Sabina, especially since all those things were Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s creation, and he was deliberately stalling for time to exhaust her.
Sabina then ordered the trees to continue attacking Hu Qiaomu, and Persix also repeatedly shot many arrows at the female moon fox, making her even more overwhelmed by her situation.
'Tch!' Hu Qiaomu gritted her teeth before returning to her beast form, a moon fox with five tails, similar to Hu Lili and Hu Yue. She used her tails to deflect those trees' attacks, and she also used her two weapons to destroy them. Unfortunately, she made a fatal mistake in doing so, and the poisonous plants' thorns repeatedly scratched her tails, causing their poison to start invading her body.
Seeing that, Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately released his heavenly fox aura and directed it at Hu Qiaomu, making her feel even more pressured by his action. However, he did not immediately suppress his bloodline with all of his strength; he gradually increased the pressure.
No matter how strong Hu Qiaomu was, a moon fox was still a divine beast, and her bloodline was inferior compared to Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s heavenly fox bloodline, which was a mythical beast. Moreover, Sabina and Persix continued to help him, so she gradually lost her momentum and speed, giving the trees a chance to attack her.
'Fuck! These bastards! They're toying with me on purpose!' Hu Qiaomu cursed after she noticed the changes in her body, and she felt that her nerves were starting to go haywire, making her movements even more sluggish.
*Boom*
Using all her strength, Hu Qiaomu's aura suddenly exploded, pushing the trees and plants away from her. She immediately flew towards Zhang Xiaolong [3] and Sabina, and she quickly destroyed all the trees that tried to block her path.'
After a prolonged struggle, Hu Qiaomu successfully emerged from the man-made forest, swooped towards Zhang Xiaolong [3] and Sabina, and swung her front claws towards them.
However, they suddenly disappeared from Hu Qiaomu's sight as soon as Zhang Xiaolong [3] took Sabina away from their spot using his teleportation, and her attacks landed on the empty ground.
*Boom*
Hu Qiaomu's full attack sparked a loud explosion, scattering dust and leaving two claw marks in the area.
"Hmm?" Hu Qiaomu immediately looked up as soon as she felt something coming down on her, and her expression was quite shocked when she saw a huge ethereal demon claw trying to squash her. Without thinking twice, she opened her mouth and shot a giant light ball towards it, and the two immediately collided with each other.
*Boom*
Instantly, Zhang Xiaolong [3]'s demon claw disappeared because his strength was indeed much weaker than Hu Qiaomu's, and her light Qi ball shot high into the sky, but he and Sabina were not in that direction, so her attack only hit an empty air.
*Roar*
"Hey! I can hear your thoughts, you know?" Hu Qiaomu frowned at Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "As I said before, your soul is tied to mine, so you don't need to be surprised if I can do it, right? If I find out that you have bad thoughts about the people around me, I will kill you instantly by destroying your soul, and you better not doubt my words. Now go back and take them with you."
"Tch!" Hu Qiaomu gritted her teeth and flew away with her remaining strength. She then took some pills to restore her condition, but she kept looking at Zhang Xiaolong [3].
"Are you sure that she couldn't do anything to you?" Sabina questioned Zhang Xiaolong [3] as she looked at Hu Qiaomu, who was flying further and further away.
Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded to the dryad leader. "Oz's soul manipulation ability is very terrifying, so Hu Qiaomu won't be able to do anything to me or anyone close to me, and she won't be able to tell Hu Gao anything about me either."
Persix, the centaur race leader, spoke directly to Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "However, Hu Gao will probably punish Hu Qiaomu if she doesn't follow his orders because of you, and he might even kill her, especially considering that guy is too overbearing, so she won't be of any use to you."
"You're right." Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately agreed with Persix. "For now, Hu Gao is still in the demon cave and focused on the seal, so he won't be able to do anything to Hu Qiaomu. Actually, I don't care if he wants to punish or kill her, but I don't think he will make such a stupid decision, especially since she is one of the important elders in their race."
"I see." Perix nodded in understanding and asked again. "Do you need our help to capture Xing Mei?"
"No need." Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately asked Liu Qingyu and Ba Shuxiang to come out of their hiding place. "Qingyu is more than enough to help me handle Xing Mei, so you two don't need to do anything to her, and you guys can monitor this region again."
The two nodded to Zhang Xiaolong [3], and he immediately brought the two women back to the Heavenly Sword City before going to the Gu Clan.
Perix let out a soft sigh and spoke to Sabina. "Somehow, I feel that that kid would be a terrifying enemy if he were our enemy, especially since he has too many strange abilities up his sleeve, such as his soul manipulation ability."
"Haha." Sabina laughed at that. "Fortunately, he is not our enemy, so we don't need to worry about him or his abilities, and I am sure that he will lead our races back to our past glory, so we just need to protect him and wait for the time to come."

Xing Mei, who was sitting alone in the garden, was startled by the sudden appearance of Zhang Xiaolong [3] and the two women. She frowned for a moment when she saw Ba Shuxiang's demon form, but she immediately smiled and asked Liu Qingyu. "When did you come back? Why did the three of you suddenly come here?"
Liu Qingyu glanced at Zhang Xiaolong [3] before answering Xing Mei. "Don't you already know our purpose for coming here? I am truly disappointed in you, and you've already made a big mistake by selling us out to Tian Gongzhu and Hu Qiaomu."
Xing Mei froze after he mentioned that, but Liu Qingyu immediately moved behind her and restriected her, and Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately brought them into the Yin-Yang Space.
