Leng Ruoxue approached the flower and was about to pick it when she clearly felt the flower trembling slightly, as though it was afraid of something. What’s going on?

“Master, let me do it.” Feng Zhan pulled out the palm-sized red flower just as Leng Ruoxue’s hand was about to pick the flower.

“Let go of me! Let go of me! You bad person!” The flower struggled violently in Feng Zhan’s hand and spoke in human language.

“The illusion disappeared.” Leng Ruoxue looked at the forest that had returned to normal. So it really was this flower making a fuss.

“You’re obviously the one who wants to harm us. Is the pot calling the kettle black?” Feng Zhan said somewhat angrily and deliberately released a bit of might.

“I didn’t. I didn’t want to harm you. I was just afraid of being discovered by you. Boohoo…” The flower actually began to sob as it spoke.

“You didn’t harm us? Then why did you set up the illusion?” Leng Ruoxue questioned coldly. Fortunately, they hadn’t fallen for it. Wouldn’t it be dangerous if it was someone else? Thinking of this, she couldn’t help feeling a little angry.

“This illusion is only to protect me, not to harm others. Really, you have to believe me. Boohoo…” the red flower explained while sobbing.

“You better make yourself clear, or else I’ll turn you into a dried flower and make tea out of you,” Leng Ruoxue threatened.

“According to the rules of the mystic realm, you have to take something from here before you can continue forward. And the only thing you can take to pass this trial is me. But I don’t want to leave this place, so I used my doppelganger technique to manifest some cute little animals. I hoped you could take any one of them. That way, I’d be safe. Boohoo…” the flower explained carefully.

“Hmph! You might be safe, but can we find the way?” Leng Ruoxue snorted in displeasure.

“Yes, you can go out. Those animals all have my aura on them,” the flower quickly said and stole a timid glance at Leng Ruoxue.

“But you are the best treasure here. Am I right?” Leng Ruoxue said thoughtfully. A flower that can use a doppelganger technique and arrange illusions, not bad. She was very satisfied.

“Yes, b-but I have high requirements for survival, so I will be dead if I leave this place. Even if you forcefully take me out, I won’t be able to live for long.” The flower wept, and drops of dew-like tears flowed from its center and onto the ground.

“Master, if I’m not mistaken, this should be the legendary illusionary flower, the king of the plant spirit beasts,” Feng Zhan suddenly said.

The flower stopped crying and said in surprise, “How do you know… my name?”

“Plant spirit beast?”

Leng Ruoxue recalled the introduction of plant spirit beasts that she had once read in a book. In the past, there was a distinction between animal-type and plant-type spirit beasts. Moreover, the strength of plant spirit beasts was not inferior to that of animal spirit beasts. But tens of thousands of years ago, high-level plant spirit beasts basically became extinct due to the change in the environment. Some plants that still existed today, such as cannibal vines, could only be considered the lowest-level plant spirit beasts.

“Master, this little flower is very powerful, but it’s still underage,” Feng Zhan continued.

“Since you know me, then you should know that I can’t leave this place. Otherwise, I will definitely die,” the flower said pitifully, playing the sympathy card.

“Of course I know. But I also know that there’s a place thousands of times better than here. That place is more suitable for your growth,” Feng Zhan enticed with a smile. If this flower could really mature, it would absolutely be a great help to his master.

“Impossible. My inherited memories tell me that this is the most suitable place for me.” The flower refused to be fooled.

“If you don’t believe me, I can bring you in to take a look first,” Feng Zhan said without the slightest bit of annoyance.

“Okay.” The flower’s curiosity was piqued by Feng Zhan.

After receiving Feng Zhan’s gaze. Leng Ruoxue sent him and the flower directly into the bracelet.

A few seconds later, the flower’s exclamation sounded in Leng Ruoxue’s mind.

“Ah! I want to live here!” the red flower in the bracelet exclaimed happily. The bright red flower swayed non-stop, showing its excitement.

“Yes. You can live here forever like us as long as you contract with my master,” Feng Zhan said seductively while pointing at the surrounding beasts.

“Okay, I want to contract,” the flower agreed readily. Illusionary flowers had high requirements for their environment, which was incomparable to other plant spirit beasts. So places outside the mystic realm were not suitable for its growth. But this place was more suitable for it than the mystic realm, so it was a little impatient to live here.

Leng Ruoxue took out Feng Zhan and the illusionary flower from the bracelet. She looked at the excited red flower and said, “Let’s contract!”

“Okay.” The palm-sized red flower shook non-stop and took the initiative to enter a soul contract.

“I’ll call you Illusion from now on!” Leng Ruoxue said to the little red flower after the contract.

“Thank you for giving me a name, Master,” the flower said happily while shaking its bright flower.

Won’t it shake off its petals by swaying like this? Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help letting her imagination run wild as she looked at the trembling flower.

After hearing Leng Ruoxue’s thoughts, a few drops of cold sweat dripped down the flower’s delicate petals as it explained helplessly, “Master, my petals won’t fall.”

“Uhh!” Leng Ruoxue was embarrassed. How could she forget that her beasts had telepathy with her?

Leng Ruoxue glanced at Charm and Ball Ball, who were covering their mouths and snickering. Even Feng Zhan’s shoulders were shivering, even though he wasn’t smiling. How embarrassing!

But what Leng Ruoxue didn’t know was that all of the beasts in the bracelet were also covering their mouths and laughing!
