Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

"Sister Suwen!"

After seeing the changes in Suwen's body, Lu Yu couldn't care less about maintaining silence and shouted at her.

Unfortunately, she remained motionless, with a blank expression on her face, showing no response to his shouting.

"This is bad..."

Seeing Suwen's condition getting worse, Lu Yu felt a slight sense of urgency.

She was at the Nascent Soul stage, yet the enemy, who knows where they are, could control even her. What kind of power did they possess?

At least with his current abilities, he probably couldn't stop them.

But he couldn't just stand by and watch Suwen being controlled.

For a moment, he felt anxious and didn't know what to do.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared behind Suwen.

"Roar..."

Little Flower suddenly appeared behind her and pounced on the two extended vines.

Its sharp claws directly cut off the two vines, which fell to the ground with a "thud".

After the two vines were cut off, Suwen's eyes suddenly regained some clarity, and she let out a soft hum as her spiritual power began to circulate.

"I cut off the vines that were controlling her, but I don't know if the enemy has any other means of control."

Little Flower had been hiding in the dark, and this attack caught the enemy off guard.

However, it was obvious that the enemy's strength was not simply relying on two vines.

After struggling for a moment, Suwen's aura changed again, returning to the previous blank state.

"It seems that we have to fight. Little Flower, continue to hide and attack from the shadows. I will confront it head-on!"

Lu Yu looked at Little Flower beside him, decisively took the Starry Sword, and stabbed towards Suwen.

"Heavenly Heart Guiding Path!"

"Swish..."

A sword qi shot out from his long sword.

Unexpectedly, Suwen didn't dodge or evade, but directly took his sword qi with her chest. At the same time, the two vines behind her moved again...

"Damn!"

Seeing Suwen not dodging or evading, Lu Yu was a bit speechless.

If this were a real enemy, he would definitely not hesitate to stab through.

But this was Suwen, his sister, and also his friend.

If this sword were to stab into her, with her cultivation level, she would probably be seriously injured.

So when the sword qi was about to hit Suwen, he shook his wrist, causing the sword qi to narrowly miss her.

At the same time, the two vines behind Suwen launched another attack towards Lu Yu.

In this way, Lu Yu fought against the two vines.

Although his strength was sufficient to deal with the two vines, every time he planned to pursue his advantage after cutting off the vines, the enemy always used Suwen's body as a shield.

It was as if they knew he wouldn't harm Suwen's body.

As a result, Lu Yu was forced to a stalemate and could only reluctantly fight the enemy to a draw.

The battle had been deadlocked for about fifteen minutes.

During this time, Little Flower attempted to launch another sneak attack, but the effect was greatly reduced.

Lu Yu sighed helplessly while fighting, feeling frustrated about this battle!

"Just hold on a little longer, I'll be fine soon!"

Just as Lu Yu was feeling a bit discouraged and about to give up, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

He looked up and glanced at Su Wen, only to find that her complexion had improved significantly compared to before.

"So it turns out that Senior Sister Su Wen didn't completely surrender."

Seeing this, Lu Yu finally understood in his heart.

After all, she was a strong cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage. Those at the Nascent Soul stage had many means to protect themselves compared to ordinary cultivators.

It's just that the timing of her being controlled was a bit coincidental, happening just when she let her guard down.

So once she realized what was happening, she began to struggle with all her might to break free.

With her words, Lu Yu had a clear understanding in his heart.

He wielded the Starry Sword and continued to fight with Su Wen.

This time, his fighting style was more agile, mainly to distract the opponent's attention.

Sure enough, in less than a moment, a smile finally appeared on Su Wen's face.

"How dare you use such methods against me? Watch how I deal with you!"

As she spoke, Su Wen reached out and grabbed two vines behind her, tightly holding them in her hands.

Then, with a sudden force, a powerful spiritual energy surged out from her hands.

"Squeak..."

Along with the release of this powerful spiritual energy, Lu Yu could clearly hear a series of screams coming from around him.

The sound was somewhat like that of a mouse, but also resembled some kind of small animal.

The screams continued for about a quarter of an hour before gradually subsiding.

After the screams stopped, Lu Yu noticed that the two vines in Su Wen's hands had completely withered and lost their vitality.

"Senior Sister Su Wen, have you recovered?"

"Not completely, but it's not a big deal anymore. I didn't expect there to be such a troublesome creature on this mountain. I was caught off guard."

Su Wen didn't hide the fact that she had been affected, but rather spoke openly about it.

"What kind of spirit beast is it, and where is its body?"

Lu Yu looked around and found no trace of the spirit beast's body except for the two vines.

In fact, he was thinking that such a powerful spirit beast should have some treasures on it, right?

"Don't think about it. Those green plants we saw all over the mountain earlier are part of its body. This creature is an intelligent plant-based spirit beast, probably at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm."

"No wonder..."

After hearing her assessment of the spirit beast's strength, Lu Yu nodded.

He had never seen a plant-based spirit beast at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm before.

However, plant-based spirit beasts were either poisonous or possessed some special abilities, making them quite difficult to deal with.

Fortunately, Senior Sister Su Wen was relatively strong this time, and he managed to break free from the control. Otherwise, it would have been uncertain who would win this battle.

"We suspected earlier that these single-rooted grasses were planted by humans, but it turns out they weren't. I communicated with the spirit beast just now and found out that it was the one who planted these single-rooted grasses."

"Spirit beasts can also cultivate spirit grass? I've never heard of that."

"It is itself a plant-based spirit beast, so it's not difficult for it to cultivate some spirit grass through its innate talent. Actually, if we had only taken a few single-rooted grasses, it didn't intend to attack us. It's just that we took too many."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu felt a bit embarrassed.

He thought these single-rooted grasses were ownerless, so he pulled out all the spirit grasses to refine the Spirit Replenishing Pills. But it turned out that these spirit grasses were planted by someone else.

"Ah, this is the result of poor communication. If it had told us earlier that these spirit grasses were its own, I would have only taken a few."

Lu Yu sighed helplessly.
