The Emperor’s Favorite Empress

Chapter 338: Encounter in the Sunset Forest (1)

Views:

The dark green trees towered into the clouds, blocking out the sun. After entering the Sunset Forest, you will not feel any stuffiness, but rather a bit of chill. It is said that before the deserted forest disappeared, I had been here. That's why Ling'er wanted to come and see what secrets were hidden in this dense forest.

The Sunset Forest is located in the southern part of Yunhai City, belonging to the southern border of Yunhai City. Because it is surrounded by thick fog all year round, it is sparsely populated and few people come to such a place.

The plants here are mostly tall trees with dense branches and leaves. On the ground, there are some black vines with thorns. These vines grow on these trees, with roots and tangles, as if forming a huge net covering the sky and the earth.

"It looks like it's quite fun here." Looking at the dense forest shrouded in confusion ahead, Ling'er's purple eyes moved and she said excitedly.

As a woman, it is estimated that only a freak like Ling'er can act so contented in the face of such a gloomy Sunset Forest with unknown dangers ahead...

Looking at Ling'er touching her chin with a cunning look, a hint of doting flashed in Di Shitian's almond-shaped phoenix eyes.

"It's not peaceful here," Emperor Shitian said lightly, turning his face and looking around. He didn't know why, but he always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this place. It seemed like something was calling him here.

But this is Yunhai City, which is above the Tianhe Continent and belongs to the spiritual cultivation world. Why does he feel so familiar here? This makes Emperor Shitian feel very puzzled, but since he is here, he should make the best of it. He believes that as long as he enters this forest, the truth will become clear.

After hearing what Di Shitian said, Ling'er had an idea and suddenly wanted to tease Di Shitian's icy face, so she turned around, with the look of an eagle protecting its chicks, and stretched out her hand. She originally wanted to pat Di Shitian's shoulder, but... her height was not enough... She could only pat Di Shitian's arm instead, and then said seriously: "Don't worry, I will protect you." After saying that, she quickly acted shy, covered her mouth and smiled shyly.

"..." It must be said that Ling'er's action made Emperor Shi Tianlei so confused that he didn't know what to say.

She said protect him

As a grown man, how could he allow a little thing like her to protect him.

But what the hell is that expression and action of hers at the end? It looks scary...

Emperor Shi Tian couldn't help it in the end. He covered his face with his hands and coughed twice, "cough cough..." to ease the extremely complicated emotions in his heart.

"Hahaha..." Looking at the complex expression on Di Shitian's face, Ling'er laughed out loud, leaning forward and backward with laughter. She suddenly realized that teasing Di Shitian seemed to have become one of her pleasures. It was so much fun.

After laughing for a long time, Ling'er finally stopped.

"Okay, I won't argue with you anymore. Let's go in quickly while it's still light. It will be very troublesome if it gets dark." The thick fog was already difficult enough to deal with, and once it got dark, it would be difficult for them to tell the direction.

Emperor Shitian also understood this common sense, so he didn't say much, just nodded, then took Ling'er's hand and walked in front of Ling'er. This was his deliberate action, but it made Ling'er slightly stunned.

Emperor Shitian also felt Ling'er's momentary stiffness, but he did not let go of Ling'er's hand. He just said, "I feel more at ease this way."

To be more precise, Emperor Shitian should be saying, how can I feel at ease if I don't stand in front of you. No matter if there is a mountain of swords or a sea of fire ahead, I will block it for you. Fortunately, he came with me this time, otherwise, how could he feel at ease in such a situation.

Ling'er was not a pretentious person. Since someone as low in emotional intelligence as Di Shitian said so, how could a person with high emotional intelligence like her have the nerve to refuse? So she nodded and said, "This is good. It won't be easy to get lost. My Tiantian is so smart." The corners of her mouth raised, and she showed a bright smile, which made people unconsciously intoxicated.

Just like that, the two of them, holding hands, walked into this eerie sunset forest, one in front and one behind.

The lush trees spread endlessly. Although the visible distance was very close, the place felt very empty and even a little eerie. It was a bit like a scene from a horror movie, which made people feel uneasy.

I don’t know where the strange sounds came from from time to time. It sounded like the cry of an animal, but it also seemed not to be.

Along the way, apart from the dark green trees and black vines, there were hardly any other plants. This made Ling'er feel very strange. This sunset forest seemed to be cursed, giving people a very strange feeling.

And that familiar feeling became stronger and stronger in Emperor Shi Tian's heart. It was as if it was constantly calling him.

"It's so weird here." After all, it is a forest, but there are only two types of plants. It feels as if the place is dominated by these two plants.

Could it be that these plants have also cultivated into spirits

Hehehe... That shouldn't be possible. She had never heard of the existence of monsters in this world.

Suddenly, Emperor Shi Tian stopped moving forward and walked to the side of the black vines.

"What's wrong, Tiantian? Do you find anything wrong?" Emperor Shitian's actions made Ling'er alert. Although, she hadn't found anything worth pondering so far. But Emperor Shitian was not a casual person. On the contrary, he was very rigorous. So if something could catch his attention, it meant that there was something wrong.

"It seems like I've seen it somewhere before." As he approached the black vines, some fragmented images flashed through Di Shitian's mind, but when he wanted to take a closer look, he couldn't remember what they were. The only thing he was sure of was that he had seen these vines somewhere before.

Where is it

Ling Er raised her eyebrows and approached the vines. "Have you seen these plants?" How is it possible? Although the people and things in Yunhai City are not much different from those in the outside world, there are differences in essence. For example, plants look more lush and even spiritual compared to ordinary plants in the outside world. Emperor Shitian is from Tianhe and the mainland. He has lived in Tianze Palace since he was a child. How could he have seen such strange plants? (To be continued)
