Speaking Heart-to-Heart with Plants! Searching for the Plant Academy Sisters!

"So That's How It Is."

"How far is the forest you encountered from where you collapsed?"

Li Fei asked curiously.

"Thirty li northeast."

"Thank you for healing me. I need to hurry back and find them."

Enjing said, "For your kindness, if I make it back alive, I will definitely repay you."

"Weren't you going back to report this to the academy?" Li Fei asked.

"That was only because I was injured and had no other choice. Now that my injuries are healed, I have to go there. I can't just abandon them. They are all my good sisters!"

"By the way, could I trouble you to inform Plant Academy for me?"

Enjing spoke with determination filling her eyes.

"How many people are in your team?" Rather than agreeing, Li Fei asked a question.

"Seven. The lives and deaths of the other six are unknown."

Enjing said gravely.

"What levels are they?" Li Fei asked again.

"Two Ring Soul Grand Masters," Enjing replied.

"It's nighttime. Going there now would just be sending yourself to your death. It's already the latter half of the night, and there are still about two hours until sunrise. We should go at dawn instead. I'll go with you."

Li Fei looked through the willow branches at the stars and moon outside before making his estimate.

"You're going with me?"

"No, it's too dangerous. You look even younger than I am."

"Besides, you already saved me. That is more than enough. I can't trouble you any further."

"This has nothing to do with you. You shouldn't get dragged into it."

Enjing was startled by his words, then shook her head.

"I can tell you're a good girl." Li Fei smiled approvingly.

Enjing's face reddened slightly.

Li Fei said with a smile, "I may be young, but my Soul Power isn't low, and I'm not weak either. Besides, you'll be my Senior Sisters in the future."

"What do you mean?"

"Are you planning to join Plant Academy?"

Enjing froze for a moment before understanding.

"Mm." Li Fei nodded.

The next second, two Yellow Soul Rings rose from beneath his feet.

"I'm also a two-ring Soul Master. My martial soul is the Yin Yang Willow."

"This wooden hut and the walls outside were all made by me."

Li Fei said.

"You! You're actually a Two Ring Soul Grand Master!"

"You're far too young!"

Enjing's eyes widened in shock.

"This is something a Willow Tree can do!?"

"And why can your Willow Martial Soul remain manifested outside the whole time?"

"Wouldn't that rapidly consume your Soul Power?"

Enjing was confused and deeply puzzled.

"This is merely precise control over my Soul Power."

"My willow tree is rather special. It can absorb Heaven and Earth Energy to restore my Soul Power and replenish what my body lacks, which is why it can remain manifested."

"In any case, I'm going to Plant Academy. I'll have to trouble my Senior Sisters to show me the way then."

"And my martial soul can heal injuries. Once we find them, I can treat them if they are hurt."

Li Fei said with a smile.

The reason he was willing to go was also because he possessed Heaven-Defying Luck.

As long as he was there, nothing major would happen.

Even if something did happen, it would only be a minor matter.

"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, Junior Brother. Once we return, I'll personally take you to see the Headmistress and explain everything to her!"

Enjing nodded, revealing a gentle smile.

"Senior Sister, what is your martial soul?"

Li Fei asked curiously.

"My martial soul is Green Vine. I'm a Control System Soul Master."

Enjing raised her hand, and an arm-thick vine appeared in her right palm.

Immediately afterward, two Yellow Soul Rings rose beneath her feet as well.

Her Level Twenty-Five Soul Power was revealed.

"Based on your team's composition, you shouldn't have been reduced to such a state even if you were attacked by Soul Beasts."

Li Fei was somewhat puzzled. "Could it be that the Soul Beasts you encountered were extremely powerful?"

"Mm. They were three Exploding Bears around nine hundred years old. They were incredibly strong. Even when we controlled and restrained them, they could tear free with brute force. On top of that, we had suffered some injuries while supporting the army in battle, so we couldn't fight at full strength. That was why the Three-Headed Exploding Bears succeeded."

"We were careless this time. I hope they're alright!"

Enjing spoke softly, clearly very uneasy.

"All we can do now is leave it to fate." Li Fei did not say much more.

They dozed for a while afterward.

When the sun came out, it was just around the Setting Sun.

Enjing and Li Fei woke up and left the Mongolian Yurt.

Enjing was stunned by the sight before her.

"These walls were all made by you!?" Enjing's lips parted slightly in disbelief.

To be able to use a willow tree's soul skill to such an extent was simply monstrous!

"Yes." Li Fei nodded.

"Let's go."

With a wave of his hand, the walls dispersed into countless willow branches that returned to Li Fei's body. The Mongolian Yurt behind them did the same.

The surroundings returned to the open wilderness.

After a night of rest, the Swift Wind Horse had also recovered to peak condition.

The two mounted the horse.

Enjing sat in front, while Li Fei sat behind her.

As the horse began moving swiftly, their bodies entered a rhythmic motion.

Before long, the two arrived at the Soul Beast Forest.

The area was thick with vegetation.

"It's so huge here. How are we supposed to find them?" Faced with such a vast forest, Enjing felt somewhat despairing.

"Don't worry. What the forest lacks least is plants. We can communicate heart-to-heart with the plants and obtain information from them. We might be able to find the traces of your six sisters."

Li Fei said slowly.

The next second, the Yin Yang Willow appeared from his body.

Countless willow branches burrowed into the ground.

He closed his eyes and immersed his mind.

The densely packed willow branches searched in sequence for the roots and stems of the plants, winding around them to form connections similar to neurons.

"Communicate heart-to-heart with these plants? How do you do that?"

Enjing watched Li Fei closely, her face full of shock.

She truly did not understand how this was possible.

And there were simply far too many branches on that willow tree.

She had used vines for so many years, yet she had no idea they could be used this way.

"It seems Plant Academy is about to gain a monstrous genius. Perhaps I can ask him for guidance on matters related to plants in the future."

Enjing felt like a complete rookie in front of Li Fei.

This seemed like a soul skill, yet no Soul Rings appeared around Li Fei.

In people's understanding, Soul Rings would certainly appear when a soul skill was used.

Li Fei had no Soul Rings, so this was not a soul skill.

It was instead a special method of using the Yin Yang Willow.

She was extremely interested.

The next second, through the vision of countless plants, Li Fei quickly found six girls in green clothes inside a cave. They bore Plant Academy badges as well, and their clothes were torn, with dried bloodstains streaking their snow-white skin.

One of the girls was unconscious and in critical condition.

The other five were also extremely weak.

If this continued, they risked dying.

Not far from the valley, three black bears were following their scent and drawing closer.

If this continued, they would all become food for the Three-Headed Exploding Bears.

Retracting his senses, Li Fei said with a slightly grave expression, "I found them. They're in a cave one kilometer from us. They're in terrible condition, and the Three-Headed Exploding Bears are already approaching their location. Once they are found, they will definitely be eaten."

"Ah! Then let's hurry over!"

Enjing's face changed drastically as she spoke.

"Alright." Li Fei nodded.

He quickly urged the Swift Wind Horse forward.
