He Xi frowned and said slowly: "Lu Xuyang?"
Jin Zeyu nodded. "Lu Xuyang probed the candidate for a while and said, 'This person no longer has any wood spiritual power. He is already a waste?' After that, he grabbed the candidate's dantian, and the candidate... the candidate turned into an old, ugly mummy in the blink of an eye."
Before He Xi could react, Nangong Yu's face immediately turned serious. He grabbed He Xi's hand and said in a deep voice, "Are you sure he turned the candidate into a mummy, instead of directly digging out his dantian?"
Jin Zeyu closed his eyes, suppressed the fear in his heart and said: "I will never forget what I saw with my own eyes. At that time, my heart was full of fear, but I didn't dare to move at all."
"Then I heard the white-bearded old man say to Lu Xuyang: 'It seems that among all the people with wood spiritual roots, only President Lu is the most powerful. Not only did he not die after his wood spiritual roots were extracted, but he devoured the vitality of the monsters in the process of condensing the Yuan Crystal. Now he has the ability to detect spiritual roots and devour people's cultivation! This luck that turned out to be a blessing in disguise, even I am jealous.'"
When Jin Zeyu said this, Nangong Yu almost changed color, and his arms around He Xi tightened slightly, with a trace of panic in his eyes, as if he was afraid that someone else would take her away.
He Xi's face was also filled with shock.
She didn't expect that Lu Xuyang was also a person with wood spiritual roots who was once captured.
However, after Lu Xuyang’s wood spiritual root was extracted, not only did he not die, but he also devoured the vitality of the monster
Moreover, he now has the ability to devour other people's cultivation and explore their spiritual roots
What's even more terrifying is that Lu Xuyang had his wood spiritual roots stripped away, and he should have hated Elder Fei and the others extremely, but now he can serve them without batting an eyelid.
For the first time, He Xi felt truly wary of someone.
Lu Xuyang's scheming and ruthlessness could not help but move her.
He Xi took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and looked at Jin Zeyu, "Did you escape that night?"
Jin Zeyu nodded, then shook his head bitterly: "I escaped, but you can also say that I didn't escape."
"At that time, I didn't dare to move at all. I just watched them use that bloody and cruel formation to squeeze the warriors and monsters with wood spiritual roots one by one, and then extract the light green crystals or beads."
"Until the last monster, that monster was very strong. It suddenly woke up and exploded while being refined. Lu Xuyang and the others were in a panic, and I took the opportunity to escape."
He Xi raised his eyebrows: "Since you have escaped..."
Jin Zeyu's eyes showed a painful expression, "When the monster exploded, a green Yuanzhu splashed on me. I didn't have time to think about it, so I took the Yuanzhu away."
"It was because of that Yuanzhu that Lu Xuyang discovered my whereabouts that night. He seemed to have a way to find the trace of this Yuanzhu. Although I later put the Yuanzhu into a jade box that was isolated from detection, the aura on my body was still discovered by Lu Xuyang."
As he spoke, Jin Zeyu took out a jade box from his storage bag and opened it.
He Xi saw a crystal clear emerald green bead inside. As soon as she took the bead in her hand, she felt a strong breath of life coming towards her.
Jin Zeyu said: "I have kept this bead in the hope that one day I can expose Lu Xuyang and his conspiracy, but now it seems that I can't do it myself." (To be continued)
