Ji Mingyu's breathing stopped suddenly, 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, but repeated calmly: "I said, I have the root of wood in me."
Ji Mingyu's hand hanging by his side was suddenly clenched, and then slowly loosened.
Seeing his ugly face, 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 in Siam mainland." I want to get it, but I have already learned how to protect myself. Except for you, I will not let anyone know that I have this thing on me."
Yes, the reason why Xi Yue agrees with Qingluan's conjecture is not only because the gods killed the Qingteng clan and the Lou family.
It was also because Xuan Mu found a piece of news for her.
It turns out that the deity had searched for the source of wood more than a hundred years ago, and said that the family that can offer the source of wood will become the new generation of overlords in Siam.
It's just that the origin of the tree has never been born, so this matter was finally left alone.
How can things be so coincidental
The god wanted to find the source of the wood, so the Qingteng family went to Miluo to chase her down. After failing, the Qingteng family and the Lou family were all wiped out by the god.
No matter how you think about it, the gods are inseparable from the events of the year.
Or, maybe he is the mastermind.
Listening to the girl's calm but hateful narration, Ji Mingyu felt her hands and feet go cold.
It never occurred to him that the thing that the Qingteng family and the Lou family wanted to snatch from Xi'er was the origin of the tree.
And the source of wood is the only thing in this world that can cure his chronic illness.
If it was before, if there was news of the origin of the tree, let alone snatching it, he would not hesitate to destroy a small plane world for it.
But when he heard Xi Yue's words at this time, he didn't even think about whether his injury could be healed, he just felt extremely panicked.
If you let Xi Yue know that you are a god, if you let her know that you are not some kind of amnesiac Nangong Yu at all...
Ji Mingyu tightened his hands suddenly, and pressed the girl tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to rub her into his flesh and blood, for fear that she would disappear suddenly.
"Hmm... Ji Mingyu, I... can't breathe anymore."
It wasn't until Xi Yue groaned that Ji Mingyu let go of her hand slightly, but refused to let her go.
Xi Yue smiled and said, "I don't ask what your status is and why you have such a high level of cultivation. But Ji Mingyu, you are already capable of protecting me, right? So don't worry, I will be fine, We will never part again."
Ji Mingyu's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at her deeply, as if he wanted to carve her into the depths of his soul.
After a while, he hugged the girl into his arms and said softly: "Xi Yue, you have to remember what you said today, no matter what, you will never leave me!"
"Well, I promise you, I won't leave."
Xi Yue was a little funny, it was the first time she discovered that Ji Mingyu also seemed to be uneasy and acting like a baby.
Standing on tiptoe, she took the initiative to kiss the man's cool lips, "Fool, we finally met again, how could I be willing to leave you?"
Ji Mingyu's eyes dimmed for a moment, then he lowered his head and grabbed the girl's lips, kissing her deeply again.
