God of Cooking, Monster: No, we have become ingredients

Chapter 2697 Excited Fire

As Qi Wu and the others watched the tree spirits fighting over food, they couldn't help but shout with excitement.

This is probably the first time that someone has secretly applauded the delicious food Ye Changqing made while watching others eat it, even though they couldn't have any themselves.

Although the Yanwu tribe members also wanted to have a bite, given the current situation, they naturally knew what was more important.

The most important thing is to take good care of these living fathers first.

As long as we're alive, we'll have plenty of firewood to burn. As long as we can return to the tribe safely, we'll have plenty of opportunities to eat in the future.

So even though their mouths were constantly watering, the people of the Yanwu tribe forced themselves to hold it in.

In the woods, numerous tree spirits were engaged in a fierce and lively battle.

Outside the woods, after retreating a distance, they rebuilt the fire barrier and looked at the suddenly riotous Black Mist Forest. At first, they were a little suspicious, but soon they seemed to have thought of something, and a smug smile appeared on their faces.

"Haha, they've made their move. The tree demons of the Black Mist Forest have made their move. Now I'll see what other tricks these dogs from the Yanwu Tribe have up their sleeves."

Huo Ming assumed that the commotion was caused by the tree spirits in the Black Mist Forest attacking the Yanwu tribe.

Just as he finished speaking, the chief of the Fire Spirit Tribe arrived with his men.

It seems that the Black Soul Beast at the entrance of the canyon has been dealt with, and then they immediately brought people to support Huo Ming.

Upon seeing Huo Ming for the first time, the chief of the Huo Ling tribe looked him up and down to make sure he wasn't injured before he breathed a sigh of relief and inquired about the situation of the Yan Wu tribe members.

"Where is he? Didn't you catch him?"

I thought Qi Wu and the others had escaped, but since that's how it is, there's nothing I can do but go back and prepare to deal with the Yanwu tribe's retaliation.

Only the members of the Linshi tribe on the side looked extremely grim.

They didn't kill them? Doesn't that make things complicated?

But when faced with his father's question, Huo Ming gave a cold laugh.

"Don't worry, Father, they didn't run away. They've entered the Black Mist Forest."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, the Fire Spirit Tribe Chief's expression changed, and even the Scale Stone Tribe members wore complicated expressions.

The person didn't run away, but was still cornered. This should have been good news.

But upon hearing the second half of Huo Ming's words, the man plunged headlong into the Black Mang Mountains, leaving everyone puzzled.

What's the meaning of these Yanwu tribe people? Are they addicted to exploring the dark mountains?

They just rushed out of the canyon entrance, and now they're back in the Black Mist Forest? What does this mean?

It seems things have gone back to the way they were before. People are blocked, but what can be done about that?

Just like before outside the canyon, they dared not venture into Black Mang Mountain to risk their lives.

They didn't even dare to enter the canyon entrance, so they were even less willing to venture into the even more dangerous Black Mist Forest.

After all, entering the Black Mist Forest means certain death.

For a moment, no one could tell whether this was good news or bad news, and everyone fell silent.

Faced with the silence of the crowd, Huo Ming seemed to be in a good mood, pointing confidently at the Black Mist Forest and sneering.

"Dad, look at this forest."

"Huh??? What's wrong?"

He'd seen the Black Mist Forest before; he'd never been inside, but he'd seen it from the outside many times. It was always the same—dark, eerie.

Seeing that his father did not understand what he meant, Huo Ming smiled and explained.

"Father, look at the commotion in the forest, it's probably caused by a tree spirit."

Ok? ? ?

There was indeed quite a commotion in the forest, with muffled thuds coming from all directions. Normally, there wouldn't be such a commotion in this Black Mist Forest.

After all, when no outsiders enter, the tree spirits in the Black Mist Forest are almost always quiet, lurking in the shadows.

Something's definitely not right right now.

Just then, Huo Ming spoke up as well.

"Father, this must be because the Tree Demon has noticed the existence of those bastards from the Yanwu Tribe and has already taken action against them."

"Father, you know how strong the Tree Demon is. With Qi Wu and the others, they're doomed. All we need to do now is hold this place and prevent them from escaping. We won't even need to lift a finger; these people will perish in the Black Mist Forest on their own."

Huo Ming was full of confidence.

Even the Tree Demon has made a move; how could Qi Wu and his group possibly survive? They are doomed.

Upon hearing this, the chieftain of the Fire Spirit Tribe nodded in agreement.

That's the truth. After all, even he would likely die if he rashly entered the Black Mist Forest.

His strength is comparable to that of the Yanwu tribe chief, far surpassing that kid Qiwu.

So, this round should be a sure win.

"Well done. Continue to strengthen the blockade. We must not give Qi Wu and his men any chance. We must trap them in this Black Mist Forest."

The next second, the chieftain of the Fire Spirit Tribe also supported Huo Ming's plan and ordered the outer perimeter to be further strengthened so that the Yanwu Tribe would not have any chance to break through.

They dared not enter the Black Mist Forest, but setting up an ambush on the outskirts of the Black Mist Forest would not be difficult.

In any case, those tree spirits will not leave the Black Mist Forest, unlike the Black Soul Beasts, which can leave the Black Mang Mountains and come out to act.

These tree spirits seem to be parasitic in the Black Mist Forest and unable to leave its boundaries.

Therefore, although these tree spirits are stronger and more dangerous than the black soul beasts, in reality, as long as you don't do anything reckless by entering the Black Mist Forest, there is no danger and they are easier to deal with.

Even if they caused a huge disturbance outside the forest, these tree spirits couldn't do anything to them.

With the people brought by the chieftain of the Fire Spirit Tribe, the construction of the blockade was naturally much faster, and it was basically completed in a short time.

All entrances and exits to the Black Mist Forest were guarded to ensure that the Yanwu tribe had no chance whatsoever.

After doing all this, Huo Ming patiently waited for the day when the Yanwu tribe would die.

In Huo Ming's mind, the people of the Yanwu tribe were probably engaged in a fierce battle with those tree demons at this moment.

Facing those tree demons, the Yanwu tribe fought desperately, but it was all in vain, and some of them had already died at the hands of these tree demons.

Even if they tried their best, they probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

As for him, he doesn't need to do anything now. He just needs to guard this place and quietly wait for the Yanwu tribe to die at the hands of the tree demons, and that's it.

"Qiwu, although I couldn't kill you with my own hands, I was still very happy to see you die."

Huo Ming looked at the pitch-black Black Mist Forest and said with a cold laugh.

Meanwhile, Qi Wu, who was in the forest, moved to a more comfortable position and leaned against the trunk of a tree spirit.

Faced with Qi Wu's reliance on it, the tree spirit not only did not harm him in the slightest, but even took the initiative to change the shape of its trunk to make him more comfortable to lean on.
