Free Web NovelChapter 1265: Chapter 1265: Star Lord Yuan Qing, What Are You Hiding From?
A burst of splendid pink golden light exploded from beneath Bai Zhi’er’s palm.
The Xiangsi Tree bathed in such rays, its once-dying branches began to sway.
From bottom to top, inside out, it bloomed again, as if reborn.
In just a few blinks, the Xiangsi Tree restored to its original state.
Completely intact.
It continued to sway with fragrant blossoms, brilliant with streaming light, leaving everyone present, except for Bai Zhi’er, astounded.
A ruo was the first to cry tears of joy.
She rushed forward and hugged the Xiangsi Tree tightly.
"The Divine Tree is back! Sob, sob, I’m sorry, it’s my fault for not taking good care of you."
A ruo’s duty was to water the Xiangsi Tree, even though the tree could not speak, it still held emotions.
Star Lord Yuan Qing was most astonished: "How... how did you do it?"
He had used the fiercest poison from the Demon World, pouring it onto the roots of the Xiangsi Tree.
It should have long been dead, how could a withered wood come back to life!
Bai Zhi’er looked at him with a mocking smile.
"I am the child of my mother, my divine power is naturally not beneath all of yours."
"I can not only revive the Xiangsi Tree, but I can also make it identify who was responsible for its withering."
"You all probably don’t know, the reason the Xiangsi Tree is so spiritual is that, although it can’t speak, it can see everything."
"So, if I ask it to identify who acted against it now, surely the Xiangsi Tree will recognize the aura of that person correctly."
When Bai Zhi’er said this, her gaze was fixed on Star Lord Yuan Qing.
She implied, "If this person admits their mistake voluntarily, perhaps I might show some leniency."
Star Lord Yuan Qing remained silent.
Although he appeared calm, his heart was already in turmoil.
Initially, he could have disbelieved Bai Zhi’er, but he had just seen a Golden Osmanthus cultivate human traits in the room.
The spiritual energy radiated from the Heavenly Dao could nurture a region, let alone a mere Xiangsi Tree.
Bai Zhi’er sneered coldly, it seemed Star Lord Yuan Qing would not give up easily.
She waved her sleeve, and with a flick of her finger, several vines grew out of the Xiangsi Tree.
The vines extended towards the gods’ position.
Bai Zhi’er stood by with folded arms, her beautiful eyes calm: "Whoever the vines find, that person will need to give me an explanation."
"Although the Xiangsi Tree cannot speak, it won’t mistake the one who poisoned it."
As soon as she finished speaking, the vine that had grown out of the Xiangsi Tree had already reached Star Lord Yuan Qing’s feet.
He instinctively stepped back two steps.
Bai Zhi’er chuckled: "Star Lord Yuan Qing, what are you hiding from?"
Star Lord Yuan Qing looked uncomfortable: "The little fairy did not do it."
Suddenly!
The vine wrapped around Star Lord Yuan Qing’s ankles, tightly coiling around him.
Bai Zhi’er tilted her head: "Star Lord Yuan Qing, turns out it was you."
All the surrounding immortals quickly retreated, all greatly shocked.
In Bai Zhi’er’s eyes there was no surprise, just a cold sneer.
She indeed had long suspected Star Lord Yuan Qing’s identity; this Toad Demon was not pure as an immortal.
Star Lord Yuan Qing, in shock, hastily argued: "I don’t know what’s happening! This Xiangsi Tree must be malfunctioning, it didn’t see clearly!"
Bai Zhi’er smiled: "Is that so? You claim you didn’t do it, then tell me, did you go to Jile City in the Demon World when you descended to earth before?"
Star Lord Yuan Qing was momentarily speechless.
Bai Zhi’er continued to ask: "Did you instigate my Third Uncle to go to Jile City to trade his own lifespan for my Third Aunt’s life?"
