The rabbit was near, and the big front teeth had become blurred in front of me because they were too close. I didn't close my eyes, just looking at them. I couldn't say whether I was happy or sad in my heart, but it was a pity.

Are the two girls walking through the playground Lulu and the Queen? I did not know after I left if my mother and Xue’er would be scared by that strange picture. But Witch Yan was there, just how long would she stay? Wu Jian was expected to blame himself. I hoped Huang Xiaolong could comfort him, although I thought this was not very reliable.

Xiao Lingdang should be sad. Sister Hua, Yan’er should also be sad. As for other people, it was estimated that only after tea they would chat about me, especially when eating barbecue. It was painful that no one paid for it.

I did not know how in this short time I suddenly thought so much. This moment, apart from my mind, the time seemed to stop. When I waited a long time, but I did not wait for the attack as I imagined. I slowly woke up from the memory, eyes focusing, but I saw the rabbit was struggling with panic, and the rabbit's whole body was slowly away from me, and went up into the sky.

I saw this clearly. On the rabbit's body, two branches were wrapped. It was the branches like the willow branches that the eat-soul tree hung.

The rabbit might have guessed its own fate, struggling very hard, breaking the branches twined around its body, but I knew the rabbit was over, for countless branches in the distance were writhing in midair and stretched towards it.

So I was lying on the ground, suffering from the pain from the soul, watching the rabbit being rolled into a ball by countless branches, no longer to see its body white.

And a branch was testing over the rabbit to extend towards me. It seemed that the rabbit and I should have a result of the same. I was very satisfied with this result. With my strength, I could kill the rabbit. It was really satisfied.

Just as the branch touched my face, I suddenly saw a shadow that I could hardly see rushing from the above to the eat-soul tree, and I froze for a moment. While I was in a daze, the branch, which seemed to touch my face, as if it were stimulated, went straight to the shadow.

When I turned my head, it turned out to be the Huang Li and Inner Peace Taoist, both of whom were too light to see.

At this time, the Huang Li was embracing the Inner Peace Taoist, crashing towards the trunk of the eat-soul tree, and the branches of the tree were quick to stab at the two people, and in my ear, sounded mournful voice of Huang Li: "Get out."

I smiled bitterly, and did not move, because I had now no strength to move. Huang Li seemed to have found this point, roared very anxiously, and then brutally hit the Inner Peace Taoist, and hit him on the trunk of the eat-soul tree.

Then the Huang Li came back to me, but Huang Li stopped when he was less than half a meter away from me, and I saw that the Inner Peace Taoist had caught the ankle of the Huang Li, and smiled grimly with a cruel voice: "Since you don't want me to live, then we die together."

I saw that a stout branch had been wrapped around the waist of the Inner PeaceTaoist, and behind him there were a thousand of them wandering all over his shoulders, feet, and waists, as if to completely wrap the Inner Peace Taoist like the rabbit.

A branch had climbed to the foot of the Huang Li along the Inner Peace Taoist’s hand, and the Huang Li should know that he was also in his own doom. I saw the face of Huang Li show a determined expression, and then he roared, directly tore his arm off and threw it at me.

The broken arm, like a conscious one, dodged a branch from the rabbit and bumped into my waist. The strength was not great, but it still made me open my mouth and show my painful expression.

But the pain from the soul disappeared, and I noticed that I had been struck directly by Huang Li to went out the extent of the bone powder.

The branch wriggled over the bone powder and wound around the fading arm of Huang Li’s on the ground.

The eat-soul tree was so horrible. Getting out of the scope of the eat-soul tree, I felt a lot better, and then I looked at Huang Li. He had been too light to see, so had Inner Peace Taoist. Their soul might have been eaten by the eat-soul tree.

I understood that the Huang Li was protecting me because of the empress's jade, but it was true that he protected me after all, and I would like to say something very much. Unfortunately, I could only make my lips tremble a little bit and couldn’t talk now. It's hard to open my mouth.

All the movement of the eat-soul tree was gone, the Inner Peace Taoist and Huang Li were still missing, and the rabbit had become a scattered white bone, falling on the white bone powder.

I was hungry and thirsty, but there was no way to move, and frowning in pain seemed to cost me a great deal of energy. To tell the truth, this way of death made me feel very suffocated. But I also owed a life to others. It was really boring.

Just as I was dizzy and didn't know if I was still alive, I felt someone moving my body, causing me a burst of pain, and a familiar voice of Wu Jian and others came to my ears. I just couldn’t keep my eyes open. I couldn’t hear them really. I didn’t know if it was a dream or a reality.

When I returned to consciousness again, I had already returned to the hall of fire. The first thing I saw was that the Inner Peace Taoist who was blue and swollen, and I was aggrieved to stand on the edge of the fire and receive Huang Xiaolong's education.

I was stupefied for a while, and then I resumed the thought. Knowing that he was the second prince, I intended to stop Huang Xiaolong. When I moved, the whole body all felt the sharp pain, and I couldn’t help but exhale out the sound.

"You're awake. You're awake." Xiao Lingdang screamed to tell the news of my waking up. Immediately, I was completely surrounded by the crowd, and they asked me whether I was all right.

I was also powerless to complain. Was I really looking a little bit well?

Wu Jian and Sister Hua knew how I felt now and dispelled the crowd directly. Then Wu Jian took care of me and I drank a little water, which eased my burning throat a little bit.

And I also knew from the mouth of the people what happened after I left. In fact, there was nothing special. After I entered the passage, the public was very boring, so they come up with a way. That was to take turns to erode the flames that protected the Inner Peace Taoist, and then when the flame was in the minimum, they beat the Inner Peace Taoist. When the flame recovered, they continued to repeat. This was the reason why I just woke up and saw that the Taoist was standing honestly to accept Huang Xiaolong's education.

I would like to tell everyone that the real Inner Peace Taoist was dead, and this Inner Peace Taoist was in fact the second prince, but my injuries were serious, and my speech was really difficult, so I had to look at the second prince with sympathy. They were not gonna kill him anyway.
