Chapter 104: Sucked

"It's a bit difficult to take the valley away, but the tree should be easier to deal with." Feng Budu stared at a tree with ill intentions, and the look in his eyes became more and more dangerous.

He thought for a moment and confirmed with Qin Baiqing: "Are you sure you can take it away?"

"Of course!" The Sanqing small world can accommodate everything.

"Come here, I'll help you see if I can pull it out first."

"Okay!" Qin Baiqing ran to Feng Budu and looked forward to it. She put her hands in front of her and waited obediently, looking at Feng Budu with eager admiration.

She knew that Feng Budu was the most unprincipled nanny and was easier to coax than her mother.

The two of them seemed to have decided something after a few words, which made Xiao Xingyun stunned again and again, and he felt that something seemed wrong.

How could they make something like transferring to a secret realm sound as simple as stealing flowers from a vegetable garden?

In the brief moment when Xiao Xingyun was distracted, Qin Baiqing, under the command of Feng Budu, had already used his spiritual power to roughly pull a rhododendron tree in full bloom, trying to uproot it.

"Boom——"

The ground shook again, but this time the shock was slight. Qin Baiqing only swayed for a moment before she stood still again, holding her breath and taking her flowers away.

"Ah—get up!" Her face turned red, and she used up all her abundant spiritual power.

The spiritual power around was also attracted and lingered around Qin Baiqing. She drove it to entangle itself on the branches. The huge flower tree rustled, and countless flowers and leaves turned into spiritual power and dissipated, only to be captured by Qin Baiqing in the blink of an eye.

Her spiritual power was intertwined with that of the flower tree. She consumed her spiritual power to tear the flower tree apart, and absorbed the spiritual power of the flower tree to replenish herself. Finally, the roots of the tree began to vibrate, the soil collapsed, and the tree body buried deep underground was pulled out by the roots.

There was another earthquake, and a flower tree fell at Qin Baiqing's feet.

"I!" She put her hands on her hips and let out a sigh of satisfaction, "It's out!"

After encouraging herself, she looked around and was instantly stunned.

The flower trees all over the valley are withering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Large flakes of flowers and leaves are falling off, their spiritual energy is dissipating, their branches are losing their green color, and their twisted vines and branches are rapidly becoming lifeless.

In the blink of an eye, the red flowers in the valley faded and became withered and desolate.

"Feng, Feng Budu!" Qin Baiqing was about to cry. She widened her eyes and subconsciously asked Feng Budu for help, trying to release her spiritual power to save these flowers and trees.

"Hurry up and save my flower!" She clung to a tree in confusion, crying out in sorrow, "Please don't die—"

"Stop shouting!" Feng Budu realized something the moment the valley began to wither. While Qin Baiqing was stunned, he had quickly planted the pulled out flower tree back, and soon the surroundings returned to normal.

"Recovered." He walked over and picked up Qin Baiqing who was shouting with her eyes closed, and sighed, "This method doesn't work."

"Oh……"

"Have you recovered?" She opened her eyes a little and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he had indeed recovered.

Since brute force is useless, then... let's use the charlatan!
"Don't look at me," the charlatan avoided Qin Baiqing's expectant gaze, put his hands in his pockets and said calmly, "The secrets of heaven are blocked here, I can't figure it out."

"Hiss..." Qin Baiqing sucked in a breath of cold air and looked at Xiao Xingyun with sympathy, who had changed from a charlatan to someone who could only use brute force like herself. She was glad that Feng Budu also came.

The three of us only have this one brain, so next time, no matter what, we can't ignore it.

Everything returned to normal, as if the great decline not long ago had never happened.

"Then I'll look around," Qin Baiqing calmed down, sighed softly, and went deep into the valley without saying anything.

But Feng Budu pulled him back and fed him an antidote pill.

"This valley is strange, and the fragrance of the flowers is unusually strong. It would be safer to take an antidote pill."

"Don't you think it's too late to eat now?" Qin Baiqing asked vaguely while chewing. The valley was filled with fragrance when they first came down, not to mention the large amount of spiritual energy and fragrance emitted when the flowers and leaves withered. If there was any danger, it might be too late to eat now.

But Qin Baiqing still chewed obediently, waiting for the medicine to be absorbed before leaving.

But soon, the three of them stopped swallowing at the same time and looked around in amazement, their expressions blank and filled with disbelief.

The first person to react this time was Xiao Xingyun.

He accepted it well and calmly swallowed another detoxification pill. After confirming that he was not poisoned by the detoxification pill, he nodded to Qin Baiqing, "You are right."

Then he turned his gaze to the speechless Feng Budu and criticized him: "You reacted too slowly and gave the detoxification pill too late. What if the elder inhaled so much poison gas that he became stupid?"

Feng Budu was rarely speechless. After a long silence, he silently stuffed two detoxification pills into Qin Baiqing's hands.

At the moment the detoxification pill took effect, the scenery in front of them had already changed.

The flowers and leaves disappeared, the tender branches turned into dead vines, and after a gust of cold wind swept through, the dry tree trunks fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

This is the real Rhododendron Valley.

The so-called prosperity of flowers and leaves is nothing but an illusion.

The dried branches took on a grayish-white hue like dead bones, and were exposed in the empty valley. The twisted branches were tumbling in the air, roaring like ghost claws, making Qin Baiqing subconsciously take a few steps back, and she got goose bumps at the ugliness.

"I don't want it anymore," she shook her head firmly, ignoring the three people in the Sanqing Small World's attempts to keep her, and told Feng Budu: "It's too ugly, I don't want it."

"…Wait a moment, I'll try again."

The scene in front of him was eerie and strange, but Feng Budu had a feeling that something was wrong.

The touch of the spiritual energy not long ago was so real, his intuition told him that there must be secrets here, and the scene in front of him was not the last layer of the valley.

He pulled out another tree, this time with ease.

But nothing changes around.

It did not continue to wither, nor did it grow flowers and leaves. It was still a dead tree that collapsed with a loud bang, and the dry branches were as crisp as silver bells.

Feng Budu studied it for a while but didn't find anything unusual, so he said, "I'm afraid the withering scene we just saw was just an illusion."

I nodded to Qin Baiqing and said, "Take it."

She was reluctant, but she couldn't let Feng Budu down, so she could only pinch her nose and try to suck the tree trunk into the Sanqing small world, but she found that the trunk seemed to be blocked and could not be taken in no matter what.

"?" Qin Baiqing muttered, "Don't they want it anymore?"

So he had to use the Void Bracelet to collect it, but the tree trunk remained indifferent, and even a tiny branch could not be collected.

"why?"

"Is your bracelet broken?"

The two of them gathered together to study, leaving the Void Bracelet in the void where no one could hear and angrily cursed Feng Budu: "You are broken, your bracelet is broken!"

"Alas..." Xiao Xingyun sighed again, looked at the two people who were whispering together with exhaustion, and said in a calm tone: "Look at your feet."

"What feet?"

Qin Baiqing looked over subconsciously, her eyes widened instantly, and she stomped on the ground in horror, trying to return the land to its original state.

"Where is the valley? Where is my Rhododendron Valley? Why has the ground turned into tree roots?"
