Five Frozen Centuries

Chapter 130 - Roses



Chapter 130: Roses

Xiao Bin was helpless. He had been very careful along the way. He had treated Wei Huo, the tree, and even Wei Sha and the rhinoceros respectfully. He had treated Lu Ren, Long Tao, Mo Guyun, and Liu Ying very kindly. He was not arrogant and he was happy to help others.

It could be said that other than the fact that he looked a little ordinary, there was nothing wrong with Xiao Bin. He had been the class monitor in school, a good student and a capable assistant in the teacher’s eyes. At home, he had been a considerate and filial child. He had also been a social butterfly outside.

It seemed like he could handle anything and overcome any hardship. When he was not compared to Epic-ranked entities like Wei Huo and the giant tree, he was a truly imposing expert.

The two of them were really deliberate!

The giant tree was still alright. It would usually fall into a deep sleep after it stopped. However, Wei Huo’s mind was a mess. He would occasionally come across buildings and dig for ores. He would either go fishing or hunt beasts. Every time he went out, Wei Huo would say, “Xiao Bin, lead the way. I’ll leave for a while.”

That’s right, Wei Sha’s duty had been handed over to Xiao Bin. Xiao Bin was stronger, so Wei Huo intended to train him.

However, this would usually take a few hours or even an entire day. During this period of time, Xiao Bin had been worrying about nothing.

This time, Wei Huo told him again before sunset, “Take care of the caravan. I’ll go out for a while, but I’ll be back soon.” Wei Huo only returned the next morning with a confused Rare-ranked Gold-Eater he had caught.

Was 24 hours soon in his opinion?

It would not be right to say that he had wanted to catch it, as Wei Huo had not tied it up like a squirrel. However, its body was as big as an ordinary Giant Panda’s. Wei Huo had only thrown it a piece of bronze. It had hugged the bronze and eaten it while hopping back toward the caravan with Wei Huo.

Xiao Bin was a little curious. “Don’t you need to sleep?”

Wei Huo replied, “You’ll understand once you reach the imposing aura!”

Xiao Bin was extremely envious of the so-called imposing aura. “When can I become an imposing aura expert?”

Wei Huo said, “Watch, think, and you’ll understand more.”

Upon hearing Wei Huo’s words, Xiao Bin suddenly thought of the high school language teacher’s words. “Watch, write, and think more. Your essay standards will then increase!”

Yes, that was extremely condensed advice.

When Wei Huo returned to the caravan, the caravan set off again. Two hours later, the caravan stopped.

What greeted their eyes was a flat valley. Two mountains sandwiched the valley, which was filled with rose bushes.

It was a huge rose garden. Red, yellow, pink, and purple flowers bloomed everywhere.

The rose bushes were about two meters tall. There were different colors of roses growing on the same bush. The roses were beautiful, and the air was emitting their fragrance.

Mo Guyun was the most surprised when she saw the roses. She left the group and walked forward as if she was planning to pick one or two roses. At that moment, Xiao Bin raised his hand and warned her. “Wait!”

Roses were not plants that could survive alone. Humans had to take care of them so they could survive. There was a weird atmosphere due to the many roses in this place.

Mo Guyun had already approached the roses when she was stopped by Xiao Bin. However, nothing happened…

She plucked a rose and the rose bushes swayed in the breeze. The scent of roses in the air became stronger.

However, nothing happened…

Xiao Bin lifted one hand and refused to let go. In order to get rid of his embarrassment, he took a few steps forward and said, “Hey… I’ll pluck a couple too.”

However, at that moment, something unexpected happened. The countless rose bushes behind Mo Guyun started swaying. The flowers were like slender hands that grabbed Mo Guyun in an instant. The thorns of the roses immediately stuck into her body. A strong force swept over and pulled her into the bushes.

Everyone was stunned by the change. They had not expected the roses to attack them either. At that moment, Wei Huo leaped into the air and landed dozens of meters above the rose bushes.

Countless lightning snakes were coiled around one of his feet. A lightning kick descended from the sky and struck the rose bushes. Soon, six lightning bolts scattered and struck the surrounding rose bushes with terrifying power.

Everyone could only hear a rumbling sound. In a bit, countless broken branches flew out of the rose bushes.

There was a huge empty spot amid the rose bushes. Mo Guyun fell to the ground with wounds all over her body. Her clothes had been pierced by the rose branches.

Fortunately, she was still conscious. Although her body was hurting and itching, she still tried her best to get closer to Wei Huo. At that moment, countless rose branches became ferocious and drilled their way out of the ground one after another. They grew over 10 meters tall and attacked Wei Huo like barbed whips.

Wei Huo glanced at the rose bushes coldly and lifted his head to take a deep breath. The suctioning force was like a whale swallowing water. The wind produced by the suctioning force made the flowers sway.

A moment later, Wei Huo opened his mouth.

“Roar!”

He let out a breath of dragon flames. The dragon flames formed a fan-like shape with the help of the wind. Countless rose branches evaporated in an instant. Those that did not evaporate also started crackling due to the high temperature.

Ever since he had obtained the Dragon Flame Skill, Wei Huo had never breathed dragon flames like a dragon. He had only spat out a small ball of flames to turn it into a blade or a firebird. This time, the dragon flames finally displayed their power.

As he spat out a mouthful of dragon flames, all the wildly-swaying rose branches in front of Wei Huo were burned clean. Even the damp ground was cracked by the high temperature.

Wei Huo thought that the attack was over. However, at that moment, the two mountain peaks stuck in the valley started trembling. Rocks rolled down, and trees collapsed. It was as if an even larger monster was about to appear.

Wei Huo frowned. Lightning bolts appeared all over his body, and a pair of dazzling flame wings appeared on his back. It seemed as if he was soaring into the sky and battling the monsters hidden in the mountains.

At that moment, someone shouted, “Stop!”

The tremors in the mountains suddenly stopped, and Wei Huo’s fighting spirit gradually subsided. The rose bushes parted to the side, and a 40-year-old auntie ran over. She did not have much of an imposing aura and she was wearing muddy farm clothing. She had a scarf on her head and dark skin. She was also holding a hoe.

However, the rose bushes gave her an imposing aura. The rose bushes opened up and created a path for her. They swayed neatly on both sides as if cheering the plain auntie on.

The auntie ran over and made her way through the rose bushes. However, she suddenly stopped and held her knees to catch her breath.

“Let me… catch my breath. Stop fighting…”
