Chapter 981: Soul of the Forest

Gu Mengmeng stood under the tree. She appeared to be in a daze but she was actually not thinking about anything.

She was just feeling the changes in her body, wholeheartedly focusing on experiencing the indescribable changes occurring inside of her.

After a long time, until the changes finally stopped did she finally raise her hand and gently hold it against a thick tree branch.

Thereafter, a young sprout grew out from the spot where she had a finger on. It had just two tiny tendrils with baby leaves still curled in the early stages of growth. It was a tender green color that shone with a natural sense of vibrancy.

A soft crackling sound.

That tender sprout dropped off the tree branch and fell right onto Gu Mengmeng’s palm.

“This should be the Soul of the Forest…” Gu Mengmeng murmured.

The barrier blocking Elvis and the rest disappeared at the same time the sprout fell off. They dashed to Gu Mengmeng’s side and Elvis immediately engulfed her deep in his arms. He only relaxed after making sure she was completely unharmed.

Hearing Elvis’ breath of relief, Gu Mengmeng gently hooked his chin and let him see the sprout in her palm. “I got the Soul of the Forest.”

Elvis had never cared much for Chixuan, and so had no regard for this ransom at all.

But this lousy twig was something Gu Mengmeng spent a lot of effort to retrieve, so he didn’t want to burst her happy bubble. So he glanced at it and said mildly, “Mmm, keep it properly. Let’s go back.”

Gu Mengmeng nodded. She wrapped the Soul of the Forest in a small piece of animal hide before storing it in the pocket of her snake skin.

The road back was rather uneventful and nothing unexpected happened.

But when they exited the crystal vines area, they could not find the entryway amongst the white mist.

It wasn’t that they couldn’t find it, but…

There were too many and they didn’t know which was the correct one.

The entryways all looked exactly the same, and even the mark that Lea made had been replicated.

“This…” Gu Mengmeng didn’t know what to do. Would anything bad happen if they just picked anyone to enter?

As they hesitated, a familiar voice sounded out from one of the doors.

“Ah Gu, I have come to fetch you.”

With that, Cole emerged halfway from the white mist. He still had one foot back in the mist.

With half his body popping out of the white mist, he reached out one hand in a welcoming gesture.

Gu Mengmeng frowned unhappily.

Although Cole’s appearance solved the dilemma of which door to enter. It didn’t overcome the annoyance she felt whenever she saw him.

“Why are you here?” Gu Mengmeng asked curtly. She would not be kind to him just because he had pointed them to the right doorway. But she would also not purposely avoid the correct entry just because it was Cole who had shown the way.

Elvis understood Gu Mengmeng’s intentions, and so just bypa.s.sed Cole as he entered the entryway.

He had just taken one step in when the white mist started to churn, as if being sucked by a tornado. Wave after wave swirled in a strong turbulence before finally gus.h.i.+ng towards Gu Mengmeng.

After being stunned for a moment, Gu Mengmeng took out the Soul of the Forest from her pocket.

As expected, the white mist was immediately absorbed into the Soul of the Forest like water swirling down a bathtub drainage.

Gu Mengmeng smirked. “So planting trees is indeed the solution to preventing haze…”
