The man's eyes were gradually filled with rage. He turned around and pointed at Gu Jin, who was still in the car. In a rude tone, he said, "That man in the car can control plants. He even killed one of our people! Do you understand why I smashed the car now? Yet, you want me to fix it?"
He no longer had any intentions of winning over Li Ran and his anger continued to rise.
It's your fault! You must give us your resources as compensation!"
The axe in his hand suddenly morphed into a long and sharp sword. The man charged forward but suddenly, he was lifted into the air.
A strange gust of wind began to blow.
In a blink of an eye, almost everyone was lifted by the willow tree's vines. Their terrified screams immediately rang out.
The man screamed and cussed. However, when he saw that Wang Gang and Yang Shao were also in the air, he became speechless.
Gu Jin looked at the scene in astoundment. He uttered, "I guess now he'll believe that these plants are not under my control."
"But why is Li Ran the only one safe? Is the ability powerless against women?" asked Zhao Ying.
Li Ran was confused as well. There were some twigs on her palms. They moved as if they were dancing.
She stared blankly at the twigs and muttered, "What's the meaning of this?"
The twigs stiffened and stopped moving for a moment. Then, they wrapped themselves around her. However, no harm was brought upon Li Ran, unlike the men in the air with pained expressions.
Li Ran suddenly felt dizzy. Although she did not know what was going on, she more or less had an idea.
She focused her attention on Yang Shao and Wang Gang, just like how she used her mind to move things into the mysterious space.
Subsequently, Wang Gang and Yang Shao slowly descended to the ground.
When the man saw this, he immediately understood what was happening. He narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "It's my fault. So, you can control plants. Your ability is very impressive. It's really rare too! With such powers, you'll be desired by everyone."
However, Li Ran was not paying any attention to him.
The man became anxious and his voice gradually became louder.
"Forget it, do whatever you want. Can you just loosen up a little? I'm suffocating!"
He was still terrified. What if the willow tree took his life just like it did to his companion?
His power was not very useful in this situation. Even worse, the rest of his companions had no powers at all.
All kinds of different emotions began swelling up in him, destroying his willpower.
Meanwhile, Li Ran had already unlocked the car and they were moving all their supplies into the trunk. Some lighter items were placed in the back seat.
In the end, there were some leftovers because there was no space left.
It was a shame that not everything could fit in the car.
Li Ran was exhausted. She bent down and began panting. After a while, she stood up again.
The willow tree seemed to understand that Li Ran's body was aching. It started to stretch its branches and used them to massage her shoulders. The amount of strength used was just right and it really soothed Li Ran.
Li Ran was really surprised. Not only did she have the mysterious space, but now she could also control plants. She did not know how she obtained such powers!
Wang Gang sat on the ground and looked at Li Ran with admiration in his eyes.
"Li Ran, you're too valuable. I'm so impressed that I don't know what to say! Please accept me as your subordinate."
Wang Gang never imagined that there would be a day where he would be inferior to a woman!
Gu Jin added, "I thought there were ghosts. Who knew you would protect us like this. We are so fortunate. Those people are inhumane!"
Li Ran's body felt relaxed since she was being massaged, but her mind was muddled.
She wanted to say that she had no such powers because now, she was put in the spotlight. Li Ran did not know if she should cry or laugh.
