Bloodsucking Magical Vine

"Ahhhh!"

A bloodcurdling scream tore through the forest and sent countless birds flying into the sky in fright.

The previously silent forest seemed to suddenly come alive again.

"Li Hu! Watch out!"

A green vine that was curled around a large tree swiftly stabbed into the young man whose back was facing it.

There was the sound of a sharp object piercing through flesh.

The vine pierced through him and created a huge wound. It seemed to be sentient and the rest of the green vine started to move. The green vine started to turn red and it resembled a blood vessel now.

"Senior… Senior Wanyue… save… save me!" the young man who had been attacked so swiftly cried out. He could barely speak.

Lin Wanyue's face was pale and she was in no shape to save him at all. She just stood there in a daze and didn't know what to do.

"Ice Seal!" A cold and icy voice that was as clear as azurite shouted out.

A light silver beam of Elemental Power shot out from Baili Qingxue's white fingers to become a beam of ice that almost instantly surrounded the vine.

The sudden shot of ice made the temperature in the forest suddenly drop by two degrees. The frost landed on the blood-red vine, causing the vine to immediately freeze and began to break.

The blood-red vine that was covered with white frost started to break into several fragments, causing the young man it stabbed to fall and his classmates quickly caught him.

The wound on his body had been sealed by ice from Baili Qingxue and was no longer bleeding, but his face was as white as a sheet.

"Senior Wanyue, Li Hu is injured, let's call the teacher!" One of the young ladies turned anxiously to look at Lin Wanyue.

Lin Wanyue's expression immediately fell and responded very resolutely, "No, we can't!"

Her expression was too stern and frightening, so everyone was taken aback.

Lin Wanyue immediately realized their shock and broke into a gentle smile. "We've already stepped outside of the border. If we call the teacher now, we'd definitely get punished. When that happens, they might disqualify us from the competition."

After she said that, everyone's faces paled.

They weren't like Yun Qingyan, who had a grandfather with high standing as the top fighter of the nation to back her. If they were disqualified from the competition, they might be forced to quit school as well.

"Then what are we going to do?" One of them was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears.

"Who doesn't get hurt in a competition? I have a good pill here, so once Li Hu takes it, he'll be fine." Lin Wanyue smiled gently and placed the pill in her hands into Li Hu's mouth. Her heart was bleeding while she did that.

This was a healing pill that her family had specially prepared for her. This boy got lucky.

She had paid such a high price, so she was determined to make sure Yun Qingyan died in this Forest of No Return.

No Return, No Return… ohoho, this was such a good name.

"Yun Qingyan, what are you doing?!"

There was a cold shout and everyone's attention was drawn to it.

That clear and cold voice definitely belonged to Baili Qingxue.

At this moment, this voice was tinged with an anxiety that wasn't usually associated with the owner of the voice. That emotion was barely there, and only Lin Wanyue detected it because she had been observing Baili Qingxue closely all this while. Not even Baili Qingxue himself detected it.

As for Yun Qingyan who was walking more and more closely to the vine around the large tree, she didn't seem to have even heard anything as she came to the tree. The bright red vine had been frozen by Baili Qingxue's ice and had completely died, but its blood jade color seemed especially attractive.

She used one hand to touch the vine as a steady and clear voice rang out from between her lips, "A Bloodsucking Magical Vine. It sucks the blood of its prey and is excellent at camouflaging itself. When it's not sucking blood, it looks just like any other ordinary vine, but once it starts sucking blood, it will turn completely red. This particular vine's capabilities are about the same as a First Stage Earth Elementalist…"

Everyone was shocked.

Nobody expected this useless bum to be able to list all the special characteristics of this creepy vine. Didn't everyone say that she was just a lousy sack of straw who didn't have any brains to learn anything?

When she saw everyone's gaze immediately change, Lin Wanyue stood up first and had a reprimanding look in her beautiful eyes.

"Qingyan, since you knew about this Magical Vine, then why didn't you tell us about it earlier? That way, Li Hu wouldn't have gotten injured…"
