Pill God Returns

Ran Hongjiao and Gui Yingjiao immediately increased their strength output. Since there was a simple way to use it, then, why didn't they use it? Instead of wasting their energy to fight the snapdragon, they would rather fight to the death. It was better to capture Yu Jiaorong and bring her back to the Merfolk. They would force Yu Wushuang to give in.    

Under the same circumstances, he naturally had to choose a simpler and more energy-saving method. That would be a better strategy.    

However, it wasn't an easy task for them to escape. This was because the snapdragon would not allow them to live here. The amount of resources and nutrients they could obtain was very limited, and these two people were very powerful. The life Yuan Qi they contained was also extremely abundant. It would never let them go no matter what. It needed to absorb these life Yuan Qi and use it to strengthen itself.    

Immediately, the snapdragon retracted all of its power. All of the vines struck Gui Yingjiao and Ran Hongjiao and increased the binding force.    

"This is bad. Gui Yingjiao, this fellow has increased its strength too."    

Ran Hongjiao's facial expression changed drastically. They had just exerted their strength and had yet to get out. However, she did not expect that the snapdragon would actually unleash its power one step ahead of time. A powerful force was exerted on their bodies, wanting to crush both of them.    

"I know. The restraining force of this fellow is getting tighter and tighter. We have to get out of here as soon as possible. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable."    

Gui Yingjiao's facial expression changed. She had never thought that the power of the snapdragon would be so powerful. It could actually bind them so tightly. This gave them an ominous feeling.    

On the other side, the snapdragon used its main strength on Gui Yingjiao and Ran Hongjiao. Naturally, those needles were much less effective on Wu Chen and Yu Jiaorong. The surrounding vines decreased. The pressure on the two of them... Naturally, it was also much less.    

"Break for me."    

Wu Chen threw out a punch. A ferocious Fist Force burst out from his fist. It swept out like a huge wave, surging violently.    

The surrounding vines couldn't even withstand a single blow from this force. Soon, they were shattered, turning into a rain of vines that fell down one after another.    

After shattering the surrounding vines, Wu Chen immediately felt relaxed.    

"Yu Jiaorong, are you alright?" Wu Chen turned to look at Yu Jiaorong and asked.    

Yu Jiaorong came with her sword and shook her head. "I'm fine. Don't worry. How about you? "    

Wu Chen also shook his head. "I'm fine too. This snapdragon is now attacking these two old things with its power. It doesn't have much time to deal with us. This is perfect. We can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."    

Yu Jiaorong's gaze turned and looked at these two old fellows. She immediately became angry. These two old fellows were really vicious. They were actually discussing and planning to capture her to the Merfolk and use her as bait. They wanted to force her mother and the Mermaid Clan to submit to the Merfolk. To think that these two old men would come up with such a vicious idea. It wasn't too much to die a thousand times or even ten thousand times.    

"These two old fellows, if I have the chance, I will personally kill the heads of these two old fellows."    

Wu Chen didn't say anything. His gaze was mainly focused on the snapdragon. This snapdragon was their objective for this trip. No matter what, he had to get this thing.    

However, this snapdragon had already become a spirit. Its strength was extremely terrifying. It wasn't an easy task to deal with it. Even if he had many magical techniques, he might not be able to succeed. The reason being that his strength was still too weak. He could not even unleash half of his original strength. With his current strength, if he wanted to deal with the snapdragon... That's definitely a death wish.    

Hence, he had to borrow the strength of Gui Yingjiao and Ran Hongjiao, these two old fellows, and let them fight with the snapdragon. Only by consuming the snapdragon's strength could he have a glimmer of hope.    

"Why is this snapdragon hiding in such a place? Who exactly transplanted it here?"    

Wu Chen suddenly thought of many questions. The snapdragon was a very difficult thing to find. The conditions for growth were extremely harsh, even in other places. Not to mention the underwater world of the Eastern Sea. It was even more impossible to find it because the bottom of the East Sea was full of water. It simply did not meet the requirements for the snapdragon to grow.    

However, what he didn't expect was that it happened to be at the bottom of the Eastern Sea. He had really discovered something like the snapdragon. This definitely wasn't something that the snapdragon had come here by itself. It could only be one reason, and that was that someone had planted the snapdragon here. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a palace here. It was the existence of this palace. It had blocked the invasion of the seawater from the outside world, thus creating the conditions for the snapdragon to survive.    

However, as to who did it, and what his purpose was, this was another big question.    

"Could it be that this snapdragon was transplanted here by the Mermaid Clan?"    

Wu Chen suddenly thought of a possibility, because this was a forbidden area of the Mermaid Clan. This place belonged to the territory of the Mermaid Clan. Apart from the Mermaid Clan, no one dared to build palaces here. Furthermore, according to what Yu Jiaorong said, in the history of Mermaid Clan... It seemed like the history of the past hundred years was a blank without any records. It was as if someone had deliberately erased that part of history, leaving only some vague legends behind.    

However, if that was the case, a new problem arose. Why did the Mermaid Clan transplant the snapdragon here? What was their purpose? Were those corpses outside really killed by the snapdragon?    

A series of questions surfaced in his mind. He couldn't get rid of them, and he couldn't figure them out.    

Immediately, Wu Chen shook his head in his heart. Since he couldn't figure it out, he shouldn't think about it anymore. It was more important to focus on dealing with the matter in front of him.    

"What the hell is this? It's getting tighter and tighter."    

Ran Hongjiao seemed to be somewhat flustered and exasperated. She discovered that the more they struggled, the tighter the vines around them, making it impossible for them to exert any strength.    

At this moment, Gui Yingjiao, who was beside them, let out a scream.    

"Oh no, this damn thing is injecting poison into my body. I am starting to anaesthetize. Ah. "    

Gui Yingjiao screamed because she suddenly realized that the snapdragon had already pierced through his skin and injected deadly poison into his body. Clearly, it was going to digest him.
