Under the soft glow of the barrier, everything around them appeared tranquil and peaceful, and Shen Ying and Zhang Wei could finally search for the Illusory Glazed Seeds with peace of mind.

Shen Ying wandered among the colorful flowers, carefully examining each one with focused attention.

A gentle breeze wafted by, carrying the fragrance of flowers and stirring Shen Ying's hair.

She bent down slightly, parted a cluster of delicate petals, and was intently examining the stamen when her fingers inadvertently touched a strange object.

The texture was fluffy and soft, like a ball of gentle cotton, yet it also had a strange wriggling sensation.

Shen Ying froze instantly, a strange chill spreading rapidly from her fingertips throughout her body.

She slowly lowered her head, her gaze focusing on her palm, where she saw an enormous caterpillar coiled up.

This caterpillar is covered in vibrant colors, and its multicolored markings shimmer with an unusual light in the sunlight.

Its body slowly undulates segment by segment, its densely packed tiny legs rhythmically extending and retracting, and its antennae on its head occasionally twitch.

Shen Ying felt a chill run down her spine, and the hairs on her body stood on end instantly.

Her mouth opened wide uncontrollably, and then a short, sharp scream burst from deep in her throat.

At the same time, she suddenly flung her hand, throwing it far away.

The unfortunate caterpillar traced a strange arc in the air and landed squarely on Zhang Wei's nose after he heard the cry and rushed over.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still.

Shen Ying's eyes widened, her expression instantly freezing. Her previously panicked gaze was now filled with disbelief, and she forgot to close her mouth.

Zhang Weize froze, completely stunned.

He instinctively widened his eyes, trying to see the uninvited guest clearly, but because he was too close, he could only see a blurry mass of colorful hues.

The soft, wriggling sensation of the caterpillar on his nose made him uncomfortable, and the muscles in his face twitched slightly.

The two stared at each other, and time slowly passed in the eerie atmosphere.

After a brief silence, Shen Ying burst out laughing.

She laughed so hard she almost fell over, clutching her stomach tightly with both hands, tears welling in her eyes, her laughter echoing in the quiet garden.

Zhang Wei looked at Shen Ying, who was laughing without any regard for her image, shook his head helplessly, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, revealing a doting smile.

He slowly raised his hand, carefully pinched the caterpillar on his nose with his fingertips, and gently placed it back on the flower next to him.

The caterpillar seemed completely unconcerned about this unexpected journey, leisurely twirling around on the petal before slowly crawling away.

As the laughter subsided, Shen Ying blushed and looked at Zhang Wei with a hint of apology: "I'm so sorry, I didn't expect this to happen."

Zhang Wei smiled faintly and said softly, "It's alright, it was just an accident."

The two continued their search for the iridescent glass seeds.

Shen Ying looked even more carefully, parting the layers of petals and searching among the flower's stamens.

As time passed, just when she was feeling somewhat discouraged, a strange light shone through a uniquely shaped flower.

"Look!" Shen Ying excitedly pointed at the flower. Zhang Wei quickly approached and saw a seed radiating a five-colored halo lying quietly in the flower's stamen. It was the Illusory Glass Seed they had been searching for.

Soon, they successfully found a second seed.

The next step is to search for "Starry Night Seeds".

Shen Ying and Zhang Wei walked along a winding path in the garden, and the surrounding scenery gradually changed. They arrived at the night sky area of ​​the garden.

This place feels like a corner of the universe that has been cut off and placed here.

The dazzling stars, like diamonds set in black velvet, densely filled the entire sky.

Occasionally, a shooting star streaks across the sky, leaving a fleeting yet stunning silver trail. The light briefly bursts across the night sky, as dazzling as fireworks.

The flowers around were also different from those elsewhere. They seemed to have absorbed the energy of the starry sky, with petals displaying a mysterious dark blue and deep purple, and the stamens emitting specks of fluorescence, like stardust in the night sky.

The flower stems and leaves are adorned with crystal-clear dewdrops, each drop reflecting the starry sky. They sway gently in the breeze, like tiny, flowing universes.

The ground seemed to be paved with tiny star stones. With each step, you could feel the slight coolness emanating from the star stones. These star stones shimmered with a soft light under your feet, reflecting the starry sky above.

Not far away, an arched bridge formed from nebulae spans a stream that flows with light like the Milky Way. The stream babbles and makes a clear and melodious sound, as if it were celestial music coming from the depths of the universe.

Shen Ying was so stunned by the dreamlike scenery that she was speechless.

Zhang Wei stood quietly beside Shen Ying, his gaze never leaving her.

His gaze was focused and gentle, sparkling like starlight in his deep eyes, and the only reflection in his eyes was Shen Ying's image.

The corners of his mouth curved slightly, and the smile that rippled out was like the softest moonlight in the night sky, full of endless tenderness and longing.

Suddenly, a dazzling light tore through the darkness, and a meteor streaked across the sky like a brilliant arrow.

In that fleeting brilliance, "starlight seeds" emerged, like tiny stars forgotten by the universe, shimmering with a mysterious and enchanting light, dreamlike and ethereal.

"They are Starlight Seeds!" Shen Ying's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement. Because she was afraid of disturbing the seeds, she deliberately lowered her voice and whispered in Zhang Wei's ear.

Zhang Wei nodded slightly and replied, "Mm."

They approached the seeds cautiously.

However, just as their fingertips were about to touch the seeds, those starlight seeds seemed to come alive, suddenly taking flight and shimmering with a mesmerizing light in the night sky, as if deliberately teasing them.

Zhang Wei and Shen Ying quickly exchanged a glance, then separated in tacit agreement and chased after each other in different directions.

Shen Ying's gaze was fixed on one of the seeds, and her steps were light and agile as she moved among the flowers.

Just as her hand was about to touch the seed again, a blinding flash of lightning, accompanied by a hissing sound, suddenly struck.

Shen Ying reacted extremely quickly, dodging the attack with a sidestep.

She turned her head and saw a group of tiny sprites flashing with electricity that had appeared around her at some point.

These little sprites emanated a sharp electric current, their tiny bodies trembling slightly with anger, and their eyes stared fiercely at her, as if warning her not to come any closer to the seed.

Meanwhile, Zhang Wei was also caught in the predicament of being surrounded and attacked by the sprites.

Another bolt of lightning struck, and Shen Ying dodged it again. The angry little sprite unleashed a series of lightning attacks, and Shen Ying continued to chase the shimmering starlight seed while dodging.

In the chaos, Shen Ying was only focused on the seeds in front of her and did not notice the situation around her. She bumped into a warm and solid "wall of flesh".

She couldn't help but gasp, losing her balance and instinctively falling backward.

A strong arm quickly gripped her waist and back, while the other hand steadily protected the back of her head.

The two lost their balance and fell together into the flower bushes behind them.

In an instant, the petals fell like snowflakes, creating a dreamlike scene under the starlight.

Shen Ying's eyes widened, filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Her lips were pressed tightly against Zhang Wei's at that moment.

Time seemed to freeze, the whole world fell silent, and only the rapid beatings of their hearts mingled together.
