Chapter 257 Don’t touch him!

He slowly pulled his hand out of hers and walked around her and continued walking.

Chujiu looked at his empty hands with a dull gaze, his heart as empty as these hands.

"Chirp?" The red phoenix flew over and chirped twice beside her.

She came to her senses and turned around to follow him, but she didn't go forward to touch him or support him.

What happened to him recently? His mood was even more unpredictable than when he first met him, leaving no time to guess.

Thinking about it carefully, she didn't know whether it was his problem or the system's problem. Ever since the challenge with Mo Yun at the Challenge Festival, the system prompted that Mo Xinglan's favorability had reached 87, and it had never increased. It had always been 87, neither decreasing nor increasing.

"Piao Miao, are you there? I want to ask you what's Mo Xinglan's favorability level now?" She felt that she needed to ask in person, in case Piao Miao forgot to report it.

"Mo Xinglan's favorability is 87." Piao Miao's usually cold voice miraculously carried a hint of disappointment.

Chujiu was speechless and a little suspicious: "...Are you sure you didn't report it wrong? How is it possible that it hasn't increased at all in such a long time?"

Piaomiao was silent for a few breaths, and then his voice became a little speechless. "You should reflect on yourself. Maybe it's your own problem."

"…"What's her problem?

Although she felt that there was nothing wrong with her.

But why was Piao Miao's words full of emotion today? Was her question so speechless? Even the system with only a bunch of data was speechless.

But she still recalled it carefully.

After recalling the past, she did not discover her own problems, but instead discovered Mo Xinglan's problems.

Thinking back carefully, since the last time she had a quarrel with him over Xiao Xiao, she had never seen him smile again, and sometimes he would even deliberately keep a distance from her. Just like this time and the day she first entered the Demon Realm, he not only got angry for no reason, but also distanced himself from her.

What on earth was he thinking?

She thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a reason, which made her not know how to get along with him.

She sighed secretly and thought, forget it, I'll wait until he calms down and ask him. She should just follow him obediently.

The next day, Chujiu seemed to have forgotten what happened the day before and started to circle around Mo Xinglan, talking endlessly.

Mo Xinglan occasionally replied to her, but his emotion remained unchanged and his tone of voice was also indifferent.

She didn't care, thinking that maybe he would return to normal as she talked.

The days passed by as Chujiu would chat endlessly with Mo Xinglan, and would also join hands with Chi Feng to fight demons.

During this period, Chujiu's strength increased a lot, and he has already reached the early stage of Tianling Realm.

She felt that she was another cultivation genius after Mo Xinglan, and the speed at which her cultivation level increased could be said to be amazing.

On this day, Chujiu, who was chattering non-stop, was walking side by side with Mo Xinglan. Chi Fengfei was standing aside, listening to Chujiu's words with curious and shocked eyes.

A vine on the ground behind them moved silently as they passed.

Chujiu raised his head and said proudly as he walked: "Although we are all ordinary people on Earth, we can still fly in the sky."

"..." He glanced at her and ignored her, his eyes turning cold instead.

I always feel like something is following me.

He glanced lightly at the red phoenix flying beside Chujiu, with curiosity in its eyes.

What a stupid bird.

Chujiu was also unaware of it. He smiled mysteriously and said to Mo Xinglan: "The plane knows... eh?!"

A hand suddenly grabbed her waist and pulled her aside, interrupting her words.

As soon as he deviated, a vine as thick as an arm swept towards him.

"Chi?!" Chi Feng screamed and barely dodged it, then flew onto Chu Jiu's shoulder with a "whoosh".

Mo Xinglan held Chujiu's waist and just landed on the ground and stood a little steadily, when several vines came quickly at him.

While Chujiu was still confused, he had already dodged many attacks from the vines with a few quick moves.

But the wounds on his body could not withstand him jumping up and down like this, not to mention carrying a person. Finally, when he dodged the vine again, he vomited blood and fell to the ground.

Chujiu finally reacted and held him with both hands to steady his body as he fell to the ground.

However, the next moment he was pushed away fiercely by Mo Xinglan, and he also took a step back. At the same time, a vine passed between the two of them.

Just as Mo Xinglan stood firm, a vine flew towards him from behind.

Chujiu was shocked when he saw this. He didn't care about his sore butt. He jumped up and swung the Lingyun Whip, which was somewhat out of control, straight towards Mo Xinglan's waist, trying to roll him over.

However, the Lingyun Whip she swung was not as fast as the vine, and she could only watch as the vine wrapped around Mo Xinglan's waist and dragged him backwards.

"Star!"

She shouted anxiously, swung the Lingyun Whip with one hand to knock away the vines that were attacking from all around, and grabbed the Red Phoenix on her shoulder with the other hand and threw it towards Mo Xinglan.

"Chiu?!" Chi Feng was startled.

But he soon understood Chujiu's meaning, flapped his wings, grew larger and flew towards Mo Xinglan.

But when it was only half a meter away from touching Mo Xinglan, it was blocked by the vines that suddenly attacked it, and several more vines entangled it.

Mo Xinglan's situation was not good either. Before he could even take out the Xuanli Sword, his hands and legs were entangled by two vines, making him unable to move.

I was very angry.

He was very familiar with this scene. It was wrapped around the same part of his body.

Do people who use vines as weapons like to control people in this way?

"hehe."

Suddenly, a woman's gentle laughter sounded, and a ball of black and red demonic energy gathered behind Mo Xinglan.

The evil spirit gradually dissipated, and a woman who looked to be about twenty years old and had a charming appearance appeared.

She was wearing revealing dark green clothes that only covered two key parts of her body. Her eyes were green and looked seductive.

The vine witch flew lightly towards Mo Xinglan and leaned her body against his back.

Her face was almost touching his. Her left hand slowly wrapped around his waist, and the back of her right hand gently stroked his face. She said charmingly, "Oh, what a beautiful boy."

She glanced at his face again and said with pity: "This little face is so pale and colorless, it's really pitiful."

"..." Mo Xinglan tilted his head expressionlessly, trying to keep a distance from her.

"Don't touch him!"

Chujiu roared, swung the whip to knock off the vines around him, glared at the vine witch, and dodged the attacking vines.

The vine witch glanced with ridicule at Chujiu who was fighting with the vines, and Chifeng on the other side.

Although the Red Phoenix became much more powerful after its growth, the vine's hit rate also increased, causing it to suffer many injuries.

It dodged and slapped away the vines, occasionally opening its mouth to spit fire, trying to burn the vines. However, the vines were very resistant to fire, and sometimes, after finally burning one vine, another would quickly grow back.

It grows faster than the grass that cannot be burned by wildfire but grows again with the spring breeze.
