Ji Mingyu's breathing suddenly stagnated, and he repeated in disbelief: "What did you say?"
Xi Yue knew what Ji Mingyu was shocked about. She smiled slightly, as if she didn't care at all. She just repeated calmly, "I said, I have the origin of wood in me."
Ji Mingyu's hands hanging by his side suddenly clenched, and then slowly loosened little by little.
Seeing his grim expression, Xi Yue quickly dropped her chopsticks, walked over to hug him, and said softly, "Don't worry, I know that the Origin of Wood is very precious and will be coveted by everyone, even the gods of Siam want to get it, but I have already learned how to protect myself. Except for you, I won't let anyone know that I have this thing."
Yes, the reason why Xi Yue agreed with Qingluan’s guess was not just because the God destroyed the Qingteng clan and the Lou family.
Also, Xuan Mu found out a piece of information for her.
It turns out that the God had searched for the origin of wood more than a hundred years ago, and once said that the family that could offer the origin of wood would become the new generation of overlords of Siam.
However, the Origin of Wood has never been born, so the matter ended up in nothing.
How could it be such a coincidence
The God wanted to find the origin of wood, so the Qingteng clan went to Miluo to hunt her down. After their failure, both the Qingteng clan and the Lou family were exterminated by the God.
No matter how you think about it, the God is inseparable from what happened back then.
Or maybe he is the mastermind.
Ji Mingyu felt his hands and feet go cold as he listened to the girl's seemingly calm but hateful narration.
He never imagined that what the Qingteng clan and the Lou family wanted to snatch from Xier back then was actually the origin of wood.
And the origin of wood is the only thing in the world that can cure his chronic illness.
If it were before, if he had the news of the origin of wood, he would not hesitate to destroy a small dimension world for it, let alone snatch it.
But when he heard Xi Yue's words, he didn't even think about whether his injury could be healed. He just felt extremely panicked.
If Xiyue knew that I was the God, if she knew that I was not the amnesiac Nangong Yu...
Ji Mingyu suddenly tightened his grip and held the girl tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood, fearing that she would suddenly disappear.
"Um... Ji Mingyu, I... can't breathe."
It was not until Xi Yue moaned that Ji Mingyu loosened his hold slightly, but he refused to let her go.
Xi Yue smiled and said, "I won't ask you about your current identity and origin, or why you have such a high level of cultivation. But Ji Mingyu, you are now able to protect me, right? So don't worry, I will be fine, and we will never be separated again."
Ji Mingyu's eyes turned slightly red, and he looked at her deeply, as if he wanted to carve her into the depths of his soul.
After a long while, he embraced the girl in his arms and said softly: "Xiyue, you must remember what you said today. No matter what, you will not leave me!"
"Well, I promise you, I won't leave."
Xi Yue found it a little funny. It was the first time she discovered that Ji Mingyu could also be so uneasy and act like a spoiled child at times.
She stood on tiptoes and took the initiative to kiss the man's slightly cold lips, "Silly boy, we finally got together again, how can I bear to leave you?"
Ji Mingyu's eyes darkened for a moment, he lowered his head and grabbed the girl's lips, kissing her deeply again. (To be continued)
