015 The Monster Hidden in the Forest

It took Zhao Baichuan a lot of effort to calm down the flower fairy loli who was about to go berserk. However, the little girl was obviously angry. She "whooshed" into the phone and refused to come out no matter how he called her.

"She's got a bit of a temper!" Zhao Baichuan shook his head with a wry smile. Compared to the other monsters he had encountered, this flower fairy was more like a child. If it weren't for her magical skills, he would have really thought the flower fairy was a miniature human rather than a monster.

"Ring ring~" Just then, the school bell rang.

"It's already so late!" Zhao Baichuan glanced down at his phone. It was already 5 p.m. Today was Friday, so there was no evening self-study. This meant that the two-week weekend officially started from now on!

"We're on holiday!" As soon as the bell rang, the students in the classroom cheered happily. After nearly half a month of waiting, the moment of liberation had finally arrived.

"Xiao Mo, where are you going tonight?" Zhao Baichuan smiled as he looked at everyone busy packing their things, then turned to Lin Xiao Mo and asked. He originally intended to offer to take her home, since baseball caps might make a comeback at any time. However, when he saw Tong Qianqian's mischievous gaze beside him, he immediately changed his mind, afraid of causing any unnecessary misunderstanding. However, he obviously didn't realize that his words would only lead to more misunderstandings. Sure enough, our Xiao Mo misunderstood.

"How about we go for a walk in the park tonight?" she said somewhat awkwardly. After the kidnapping incident, she somehow developed a strange feeling for Zhao Baichuan.

"Let's go to the park!" Zhao Baichuan was taken aback, not expecting Lin Xiaomo to suggest that. However, he immediately realized that there was something wrong with his words and was secretly annoyed when he saw Tong Qianqian walk over and pat him on the shoulder forcefully. "Go for it, young man! Our Xiaomo is a good girl. I have high hopes for you. Just a friendly tip, Lefu Plaza is a good place. You guys can go check it out!" After saying that, before he could react, she continued, "I have something to do tonight, so I won't be able to join you. Have fun, Xiaomo."

"Hmm..." Lin Xiaomo blushed and agreed without saying anything. Tong Qianqian, however, didn't care, grabbed her bag, and left the classroom nonchalantly.

"Let's go to Lefu Plaza then. I've heard it's really nice there," Lin Xiaomo said, looking at her feet.

"Uh, okay!" Zhao Baichuan had no choice but to agree. Lin Xiaomo had just been frightened because of him, so he couldn't very well refuse. After quickly packing their bags, the two decided to head towards Lefu Plaza.

Lefu Plaza was neither far nor close to the school, but with the help of the bus, they arrived there quickly.

"Wow! So many fallen leaves!" Lin Xiaomo exclaimed as soon as she got out of the car.

The most famous spot in Lefu Square is undoubtedly its grove of trees. It's late autumn now, and the falling leaves add a touch of romance to the place. Many couples linger under the fallen leaves, and some even leave vows of eternal love on the thick tree trunks.

Zhao Baichuan wasn't particularly interested in this behavior, but Lin Xiaomo seemed quite intrigued. She carefully examined each tree, occasionally uttering words of envy or admiration, her girlish heart fully revealed. Under her influence, Zhao Baichuan gradually became interested as well, accompanying her as they looked around. However, he was thinking that if a flower fairy could even turn a cactus into a demon, he wondered what would happen if he scattered flower petals under these trees, which were mostly over 20 years old.

"Back then, I already had a tree spirit?" Thinking of this, his heart burned with excitement. For some reason, since he became a player, most of the monsters he had encountered were wood-type monsters, including Xiao Yang's bamboo spirit, the vine spirit of the baseball cap, and his own flower spirit, all of which were wood-type.

"Look! This tree is huge! There are even names carved on it!" Just as he was daydreaming, Lin Xiaomo's exclamation interrupted his thoughts.

"Oh?" Zhao Baichuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw several blurred characters on a large tree that was big enough for two people to hug. Upon closer inspection, they appeared to be the names of two people, enclosed in a heart shape. It must have been left by a couple.

"These inscriptions must be at least ten years old!" Zhao Baichuan guessed to himself. The names were long gone, but the heart shape was still faintly discernible, indicating that the inscriptions had been carved for quite some time.

"How romantic! I wonder if this couple ended up together!" The girl said with a hint of envy, her hands clasped together. For some reason, as she spoke, she glanced at Zhao Baichuan unconsciously, her heart pounding like a deer.

"Could it be that I like him?!" Lin Xiaomo was startled by this sudden thought. "No way, he's not even handsome, and he's not sweet-talking either. How could I like him!" The girl thought to herself, conflicted. "Actually, looking closely, this guy is quite good-looking, and he has a nice temper. I just don't know if what Qianqian said is true..."

Poor Zhao Baichuan was naturally unaware of Xiao Mo's little scheme; his attention had long been drawn to the big tree.

"A tree this thick must have lived for at least fifty years. How many flower petals must it have taken to transform into a demon!" Ever since learning about the special abilities of flower demons, Zhao Baichuan had been paying close attention to the plants around him, and this big tree had clearly attracted his interest.

"Come out, Flower Fairy!" He pretended to take a picture with his phone to avoid Lin Xiaomo noticing anything amiss, and then he saw the Flower Fairy's petite figure slowly emerge from the phone screen.

"Huahua, can you bring this big tree back to life?" Zhao Baichuan whispered into his phone.

"Flower~" The flower fairy circled the big tree twice, then flew back, first shaking her head, then nodding.

"Uh, what does this mean?" Zhao Baichuan was completely confused. "Is it possible or not?"

"Flower!" The flower fairy gestured twice more.

"You mean you can't now? But you can later?" Zhao Baichuan tried to translate.

"Hua Hua!" The flower fairy nodded her little head, agreeing with his statement.

"Alright! Let's keep this tree for now, and we'll definitely turn it into our tree spirit later!" Xiao Yang and the others had said that the number of demons each person could carry was limited, but the flower demon's ability allowed him to have a few more demons, so he naturally didn't mind creating another tree spirit.

"Ding! Demonic energy detected!" Suddenly, a sinister female voice rang out.

"What?" Zhao Baichuan was startled and subconsciously looked at his phone screen. He saw a pair of blood-red eyes staring straight at him from the bare treetop!
