If Wei Zixi really wanted himself and Chang Ling to die, they would have already become twisted and hideous corpses.
The reason why he stayed here and was willing to speak to them in a friendly manner was simply because he had other purposes.
In other words, I am qualified to be his chess piece.
Sure enough, Wei Zixi showed an appreciation on his face. He waved his long sleeves, and Chang Ling, who was originally kneeling, disappeared in front of the two of them.
He did not beat around the bush, but looked at Xuan Mu and said slowly: "If you want to save Chang Ling's life, it's not impossible, as long as you do one thing for me."
Xuan Mu's heart trembled, and his hands and feet felt slightly cold. He said, "Master, please speak."
Wei Zixi took something out of his arms and threw it to Xuan Mu, "Carry this with you and return to Xiyue."
Xuan Mu did not look at the things in his arms, but looked at Wei Zixi and gritted his teeth and said, "I am unwilling to betray the master for Xiyue, and I will not betray Xiyue for the master. If the master wants me to be a spy for Xiyue, I will never agree to it even if I die."
"Be a spy?" Wei Zixi seemed to have heard a joke. "Do you think I want you to find out the secrets of Xi Yue and Ji Mingyu?"
His voice paused for a moment, and then he slowly said in a chilling voice: "Are you worthy?"
These three simple words have expressed Wei Zixi's attitude.
That was Xi Yue's secret, and he would never allow anyone else to touch it, even if it was to kill Ji Mingyu.
Xuan Mu's breathing stagnated slightly, his face pale as he lowered his head, his eyes falling on the thing Wei Zixi threw to him.
It was a blue, crystal clear stone. Under the refraction of light, it seemed as if you could see water flowing in the stone.
Xuan Mu showed a surprised expression, "Is this a Yaoshi?"
Obsidian is a relatively rare crystal stone, which is divided into five attributes: gold, wood, water, fire and earth. It is generally used to make black stone (also known as spiritual stone) for testing spiritual roots.
However, this piece of obsidian seemed a little different from the obsidian that Xuan Mu had seen before. Its luster was too bright and too clear.
Wei Zixi said calmly: "This is the Heavenly Yao Stone - Wen Ze. There is only this one piece left in the world. It has only one use..."
Xuan Mu subconsciously held his breath, and the edge of the stone burned his palm, causing some pain.
Then, he heard Wei Zixi's next words, "It can find the location of the Water Spirit Pearl. Follow Xiyue, and you will definitely find the real carrier of the Water Spirit Pearl and bring it to me. If you can do it, I will spare Changling's life."
Xuan Mu's breathing suddenly became heavier, his voice was hoarse and broken, "You want to stop Xi Yue from unlocking the fifth level of the Origin of Wood? Why? Master, didn't you say that you would not hurt Xi Yue? You should know what the last spirit bead means to Xi Yue!"
Wei Zixi narrowed his eyes and suddenly waved his hand.
Xuan Mu's figure suddenly flew into the air, then fell heavily to the ground. He crawled on the ground in a mess, spitting out blood.
However, there was no resentment or fear on his face. Instead, he struggled to get up, knelt down again, and said slowly and firmly: "Master, I said, I will not do anything to hurt Xiyue."
"Even if it's for Chang Ling's life?"
Xuan Mu closed his eyes, his face turned pale, his body trembled slightly, but he remained silent.
Of course, he knew what the Origin of Wood was, and he also knew how important the Origin of Wood was to Xi Yue, and how much it was coveted. (To be continued)
