Chapter 289 Everyone has their own plans
After Ye Yirui escaped the illusion, she entered the mist first. When she came out of the mist, she saw a series of rolling medicinal mountains. Each mountain was well-planned and planted with spiritual herbs that could not be found in the Weiling Realm. This made her eyes light up. Perhaps there were spiritual herbs among them that could repair her brother's dantian.

Ye Yirui slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and then her figure flashed to the first mountain. The mountains here were planted with low-grade spiritual herbs, some of which were not even found in the Medicine King Valley. She had to stop and pick the spiritual herbs that were not found in the Medicine King Valley. She picked two of each kind of spiritual herb and carefully put them into a jade box. She believed that there must be more precious spiritual herbs in the mountains behind.

Half an hour later, she went to the second mountain, where the spiritual herbs were even more precious. Everywhere she looked, there were fourth-order spiritual plants. This made Ye Yirui clench her fists in excitement. She stepped into the herb field, but unfortunately, the next moment her ankle was wrapped by a transparent silk thread.

Ye Yirui was startled. She had been careless. The smooth entry into the first mountain had made her lose her vigilance and overlook the fact that high-level spiritual plants were guarded by demonic beasts.

Ye Yirui waved her hand and cast a red spell, severing the transparent threads wrapped around her ankles. Then she quickly retreated. In less than two breaths, Ye Yirui noticed that the circulation of spiritual energy within her body was somewhat sluggish.

She quickly scanned the area where the silk threads had wrapped around her and found a black mark around her ankle. The black mark was spreading from her ankle to her calf. She immediately bent down and tapped her injured leg several times to seal the meridians in her calf. Then she immediately swallowed a Grade 3 antidote pill.

The pill quickly transformed into a cooling force upon entering the mouth, heading straight for Ye Yirui's calf and gradually dissolving the dark marks.

Just as Ye Yirui breathed a sigh of relief, a sharp attack came straight at her face. The spiritual energy was even mixed with a trace of strange black energy. Ye Yirui raised her hand and cast a spell to counterattack, then quickly retreated from the area of ​​the herb field. She did not want to damage the high-grade spiritual herbs here.

Two forces, one red and one black, collided. In the end, the black force overwhelmed the red force, forcing her to take two steps back. Then she frowned, because she realized that the one who launched the attack was Elder Wang from Medicine King Valley.

Elder Wang was in a sorry state at this moment. His robes were badly damaged, and his face was gloomy. He looked at Ye Yirui with great hostility. After realizing that his attack had missed, he quickly swung his sword to launch a second attack.

"Elder Wang, what do you mean by this?"

While dodging and retaliating, Ye Yirui scolded in a low voice.

Elder Wang made no response whatsoever, only relentlessly attacking her with his sword, as if he were determined to fight to the death.

Although Ye Yirui didn't understand why Elder Wang would do this, she had actually harbored murderous intentions towards Elder Wang before entering the secret realm. Now that he had made the first move, she had even more reason to retaliate.

The next moment, she switched from defense to offense, making the most of her dual fire and wood spiritual roots. She used wood-type spiritual power to control the purple vines in the mountain, so that the vines would entangle Elder Wang, while a series of sharp fire arrows pierced towards Elder Wang's vital points.

When the purple vines bound Elder Wang, they slowed down his reaction time. However, Elder Wang's cultivation was above Ye Yirui's. With a tremor, he broke free of the vines, raised his hand, and unleashed a black ball of light, attacking Ye Yirui's dantian.

Ye Yirui quickly retreated, dodging the attack with agility. Then she noticed that Elder Wang's face was somewhat distorted, as if he wanted to express something, but he didn't say anything.

Ye Yirui scanned the area with her divine sense and discovered that Elder Wang was almost entirely covered in those transparent threads. He was like a puppet on strings, all his attacks controlled by the threads. He was trying to break free, but with little success. Ye Yirui's eyes flashed, and she immediately questioned loudly:
"Elder Wang, what exactly do you mean? Why are you trying to kill me? We both come from Medicine King Valley and should stand together against outsiders. What is your purpose in doing this?"

Although she spoke with questioning words, Ye Yirui was not ambiguous at all. Her attack speed was not slow at all. After dodging several attacks from Elder Wang, she summoned her natal spiritual plant from her dantian.

This spiritual plant was named Red Branch by Ye Yirui. It has small red flowers blooming on a short vine, which looks very pleasing. But don't be fooled by its appearance. Red Branch is carnivorous and has a strong attack power. After Ye Yirui infused it with wood-type spiritual power, the vine quickly grew longer and thicker. In addition to the small red flowers, it also has sharp barbs.

The moment the vine was swung out, it collided with Elder Wang's black aura. As the two forces were locked in a tug-of-war, another vine silently wrapped around Elder Wang's foot, swiftly and accurately piercing his leg and injecting its paralyzing liquid into Elder Wang's body.

Elder Wang frowned, raised his hand and unleashed a wind blade, directly severing the vines wrapped around his ankle.

Ye Yirui quickly summoned her natal spiritual plant, then looked at Elder Wang with a pale face and a triumphant smile. This time, she was determined to take down Elder Wang, even if it meant injuring her natal spiritual plant.

Elder Wang seemed to realize something as well. He raised his hand to attack Ye Yirui again, but the next moment, his eyes rolled back and his body went limp like a noodle. In the last moment before he lost consciousness, a huge fire blade came straight at him.

The unconscious Elder Wang was like a broken rag doll, making strange movements as he was pulled by the threads to avoid Ye Yirui's attacks.

A murderous glint flashed in Ye Yirui's eyes. Now that Elder Wang had completely lost consciousness, and only those transparent threads were controlling him, things were much easier.

She understood perfectly well what Elder Wang of Medicine King Valley meant by this. He was afraid that she would slip out of his control and didn't want her to have too close a relationship with the inheritor of the Immortal Physician Sect, so he sent Elder Wang to monitor her.

Actually, she felt that what both Medicine King Valley and her uncle feared most was that she would find a way to repair her brother's dantian, so that she could awaken her brother and learn the truth about what happened back then from him.

Since these people have come up with such a ridiculous plan, she naturally has to retaliate. Dying while exploring the new secret realm is the end she will give Elder Wang.

Ye Yirui grasped the red branch and began a new round of attacks.

Wei Yunqing, who had been tricked by Sheng Yuhong, finally broke free from the illusion thanks to the continuous efforts of the crimson bracelet. The moment she opened her eyes, she immediately summoned her spirit sword and cut open the cocoon that bound her.

After falling to the ground, Wei Yunqing immediately looked at the crimson bracelet on her wrist. The bracelet had become visible due to her fall and had turned very dim. When she probed the bracelet with her divine sense, her face turned pale. The space around it had actually shrunk.

She gritted her teeth, scanned the area, but couldn't find Sheng Yuhong. A look of confusion flashed in Wei Yunqing's eyes. After swallowing a Spirit-Replenishing Pill, she walked into the mist. She needed to leave this place as soon as possible.
