I swept the Phoenix with the Onmyoji Shikigami

Chapter 279 Thank you for your help, Flower God

Yun Yi's ears grew longer and swayed gently. He stroked his hair, trying to hide the abnormality, but his heart was in turmoil:

"What... have we become? What should we do?" He forced himself to remain calm, but his eyes kept glancing at his companions, looking for resonance or answers.

Shen Li's tail quietly stretched out, and she squatted down suddenly, using the excuse of tying her shoelaces, but in fact she was trying her best to cover up the tail that did not belong to a human.

She was extremely anxious and sent a message to Shen Xing:

"Xing'er, did you see that? We... have all changed." Shen Xing's expression was equally complicated. He nodded gently and responded with a firm look, as if to say, "Don't be afraid, sister, we are together."

Mo Fang's face gradually revealed the outline of a cat, especially the pair of eyes that sparkled in the firelight, revealing an indescribable sharpness and vigilance.

He lowered his head deliberately to avoid looking at others, thinking to himself: "Is this change a blessing or a curse? Can we still trust each other?"

There was a subtle tension and suspicion in the air, and everyone had their own secrets and worries. They began to keep their distance unconsciously, and the conversation was full of temptation and reservation, as if every step was on thin ice.

"Xing'er, can we... go back to the way we were before?" Shen Li's voice trembled slightly in the telepathic transmission, revealing her inner fragility and desire.

"Yes, sister. As long as we are united in heart, there is nothing we cannot overcome." Shen Xing's voice was firm and warm, like a beam of light penetrating the darkness, giving Shen Li infinite strength and comfort.

Several people continued to move forward. In this foggy fantasy, every step seemed extremely heavy.

Suddenly, a rapid sound of breaking through the air broke the silence, and an unknown arrow shot towards Dianwu who was walking in the front like a poisonous snake.

In a flash, Shen Li's figure appeared like a ghost, and the Sky-Bearing Slash turned into a dazzling sword light, accurately hitting the attacker's weapon and knocking it away. However, the crisis was not over, and the second wave of attacks followed closely, unstoppable.

Seeing this, Shen Xing's spiritual power surged in his body, and he was about to use his special skills to help, but the sky suddenly changed, and a group of flying birds appeared out of thin air. Their wings were like swords, and their bodies were nimble. They drew graceful arcs in the air, and actually shot down those arrows one by one, resolving this sudden crisis.

As the arrow fell to the ground, a figure floated lightly from the air, like the most gorgeous flower blooming in spring.

She was wearing a gorgeous gown, her skirt fluttering in the wind, her face gentle yet heroic, it was Lian Huishi, the goddess of flowers herself. Her appearance surprised everyone present, it turned out that she had also joined this seemingly ordinary competition.

"Lian Huishi, why are you here?" Shen Li spoke first, with surprise and a bit of vigilance in her tone.

Lian Huishi smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to warm people's hearts and dispel all the haze.

"I am naturally one of the contestants, but I didn't expect to meet you here." Her eyes moved around the crowd and finally stopped at Shen Xing. A hint of imperceptible tenderness flashed in her eyes. "It seems that our fate is really unfathomable."

When Shen Xing heard this, he couldn't help but feel a complicated emotion in his heart.

He knew very well that Lian Huishi's strength was unfathomable, and he understood her identity and the secrets behind her.

But at this moment, facing this sudden helping hand, he could only respond with a grateful smile, while secretly being alert. After all, in this fantasy world full of unknowns, the appearance of anyone may mean unknown challenges.

"Thank you, Flower God, for your help." Shen Xing bowed, his tone sincere yet polite.

Lian Huishi waved her hand gently and said, "No need to thank me. We are both competitors and companions in this fantasy world. Only by supporting each other can we go further." Her words revealed a magnanimity and wisdom that transcended victory or defeat, which moved everyone present.

With the joining of Lian Huishi, the originally tense atmosphere seemed to be eased a little.

Everyone smiled at each other, but each had different intentions.

Lian Huishi's joining undoubtedly added a touch of color to the team. Lei Zhen and Yun Yi cast admiring glances at her. They knew Lian Huishi's strength and wisdom very well, and felt surprised and honored by her arrival.

Lei Zhen spoke first, his voice loud and enthusiastic: "Lord Flower God, your arrival really makes us more powerful! I am Lei Zhen, I am good at controlling the power of thunder and lightning, please give me more guidance in the future."

Yun Yi followed closely behind and introduced himself in a gentle and elegant manner: "My name is Yun Yi. I am good at body movement and concealment. It is my great honor to be able to fight alongside the Flower God here."

Lian Huishi responded with a smile. Her voice was soft and magnetic, as if it could soothe all the restlessness and anxiety in people's hearts.

"You two are too polite. I am just a flower god. Thank you for your respect. In this illusion, dangers are everywhere. We need to stay vigilant at all times to ensure safety. If there is an attack next time, I will do my best to help, but everyone's own strength is the ultimate reliance."

However, Dianwu was very dissatisfied with this.

She was a person of strong character and straightforward in her actions. When she saw Lian Huishi and Shen Li coming to her rescue one after another, she couldn't help feeling a little proud and dissatisfied.

"Hmph, you two are just trying to be heroes. I, Dianwu, believe that I am quite powerful, especially my lightning strike technique, which is enough to protect myself. There is no need for others to interfere." Her words were full of sharp sarcasm, and she obviously did not think highly of Lian Huishi and Shen Li's help.

Shen Li frowned slightly when she heard this. She was about to speak to persuade him, but she heard Shen Xing gently pull her sleeve, signaling her to be patient.

Shen Xing knew Dianwu's character very well, and he also knew that a head-on confrontation would only make the atmosphere more tense. So he stepped forward and said in a calm but firm tone:

"Dianwu, we are a team, and it is natural for us to support each other. Lord Flower God and Sister Li'er are helping us out of their concern and care for our team. We are of course aware of your strength, but more strength means more protection, so why not do it?"

Upon hearing this, Dianwu did not change his words immediately, but the sharpness in his eyes had subsided.

She was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, agreeing with Shen Xing's words.

The atmosphere in the team was thus eased and everyone continued to move forward.

Lian Huishi’s prediction seemed to have become some kind of omen. Before they had even stopped moving forward, new challenges came like a surging tide.

The air around suddenly became turbid, with flying sand and rocks gradually gathering into countless rotating whirlpools, as if to swallow everything.

The originally tranquil sky also changed. The clouds were no longer leisurely, but turned into black crows, swooping down with screams and launching a fierce attack on everyone.

The changes in the sky were not just a distortion of the scene, but also foreshadowed the attacker's terrifying and terrifying power.
