Soon, Mu Jinyu searched through the memories of everyone present.

But he found nothing wrong!

Everything seemed normal.

This made Mu Jinyu's expression even more unpleasant.

He genuinely hoped to find something amiss.

"Dragon Master, how is it?"

At this point, Bai Xiaosheng also asked, his tone lacking confidence.

Obviously, he too gathered the answer from Mu Jinyu's expression, yet refused to give up and wished to hear it directly from Mu Jinyu.

Mu Jinyu turned back to Bai Xiaosheng, shook his head, and said, "No issues, they don't seem like they've had their memories altered!"

Bai Xiaosheng was silent for a moment and said, "Perhaps their senior brother had them do something else and then erased that part of their memory, so they themselves don't remember doing anything wrong..."

At first, when they heard Mu Jinyu say everyone seemed normal, the group relaxed, but hearing Bai Xiaosheng's words, they became tense again.

"You concealing fellow, why do you insist on saying there's something wrong with us?"

"Exactly, you're the one who's not normal!"

"Wait, did he just say that his senior had us do something and then deleted our memories?"

"What a guy, he's the real traitor here, crying thief while being one himself!"

"..."

The crowd began to discuss, looking at Bai Xiaosheng with unfriendly eyes.

Xia Ruochen, annoyed, frowned and said, "Enough, the Dragon King knows his boundaries! He won't act recklessly!"

The crowd quieted immediately upon Xia Ruochen speaking, evidently more fearful of him.

Bai Xiaosheng paid no attention to the crowd's assessment of him. After pondering a moment, he said uncertainly, "Dragon Master, what method did you use to devour the demonic Qi from Lord Xia and the others? Can you control this method yourself? If possible, why not try it on them as well?"

Hearing this, Mu Jinyu's eyes lit up.

Indeed.

Xia Ruochen and others were failed experiments in memory alteration, leaking demonic Qi and turning insane, while the Three-Leaf Youlian could absorb their demonic Qi, returning them to normal...

Hence, the successful scapegoats with altered memories should logically have demonic Qi too. If the Three-Leaf Youlian absorbs their demonic Qi, it might unravel Chu Tiance's scapegoat plan!

Thinking of this, Mu Jinyu couldn't help but feel excited and hopeful.

Without hesitation, he immediately activated the Three-Leaf Youlian, which had absorbed a lot of demonic Qi and was now much more vigorous, to release invisible vines to absorb the demonic Qi within these individuals!

"Huff huff..."

"Huff!"

However, the result disappointed Mu Jinyu.

Despite Mu Jinyu's full activation, the Three-Leaf Youlian displayed countless invisible transparent vines, penetrating the bodies of the group, desperately trying to draw out their demonic Qi.

Yet no demonic Qi could be drawn out.

Mu Jinyu's expression darkened.

If this is so...

It could only mean, either these people are truly normal, never altered or corrupted by unknown demonic Qi at all, thus the Three-Leaf Youlian couldn't do anything with them.

Or, the demonic Qi has fully integrated with them post-invasion, and under the directive not to harm their lives, the Three-Leaf Youlian is powerless against them.

Mu Jinyu hoped for the former, but he felt the possibility was too low.

Xilin had been closely observing Mu Jinyu. When she saw Mu Jinyu release that invisible, transparent Qi to connect to these people's bodies, seemingly trying to absorb something with no success, her eyes gradually brightened from confusion.

She vaguely guessed what Mu Jinyu was using!

It's a Divine Plant!

An extraordinary item with endless possibilities, capable of reversing fate!

This despicable human actually possesses one?

Not even our Divine Race has one!

Only heard of in legends!

Xilin's heart surged with a burning desire, wanting desperately to own the Divine Plant within Mu Jinyu!

At this moment, Xilin saw Mu Jinyu frowning, pondering over something, presumably thinking about how to break through this difficulty? Her urgency made her forget her resolve to wait until Mu Jinyu asked for her help.

"Are you truly powerless against them, starting to think they are normal?" Xilin suddenly scoffed.

"Hmm?!"

Mu Jinyu snapped out of his contemplation upon hearing Xilin, turning to her, eyebrows knitted tightly, and asked, "Oh? You have a way, ready to tell?"

"Of course!"

Though Xilin knew she shouldn't be this hasty, she could no longer suppress the longing within her.

Thus, she decided to let Mu Jinyu ask her sooner, rather than wait until he was desperate.

She decided to give a little showcase of her abilities.

"Release a part of the restrictions on me, let me perform a spell..." Xilin requested from Mu Jinyu.

Mu Jinyu said nothing, frowning at her with a look of incredulity.

That look clearly expressed, Do you take me for a fool?

Xilin grew exasperated.

She never intended to escape, but truly wanted to demonstrate her competence to Mu Jinyu, get him to admire her, and plead for her help, offering the Divine Plant willingly.

"I said, you can just release part of the restraints, enough to allow me to perform a spell. I won't be able to escape!"

Xilin spoke through gritted teeth.

She regretted speaking too hastily earlier, giving the impression of rushing in, looking cheap, and even having to face doubts!

No matter, after Mu Jinyu witnesses her ability, if she refuses to give a solution, he will surely plead for her help!

Xilin thought with a snicker, feeling a little smug.

She seemed to have envisioned Mu Jinyu's shock at her methods, then begging her to assist, leading to him kneeling, hugging her leg, pleading while offering the Divine Plant, and even restoring her freedom, pledging himself as a servant...

Heh heh...

Xilin daydreamed about these scenarios, unable to suppress a laugh.

"Psycho!" Mu Jinyu commented offhandedly, feeling puzzled by her unpredictability.

The crowd nodded in agreement.

Causing Xilin, who regained her senses, to nearly go berserk.

"Do you want my help or not? Never mind if you don't!" Xilin said resentfully.

Mu Jinyu thought for a moment and decided to give it a try, figuring that merely loosening a few restrictions shouldn't allow this foolish woman to escape!

Thus, Mu Jinyu loosened part of the restraints on Xilin.

Allowing her to regain some power, having a cultivation level around the Mid Divine Transformation Realm.

"Haha..."

Feeling the rare flow of True Yuan, Xilin couldn't help but laugh gleefully.

With a swish, twelve golden wings opened up from Xilin's back, her entire being floating upwards, like a Goddess descending!

"Whoa!"

"Who is she?"

"Are angels real?"

"..."

Amidst the exclamations of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow members, Xilin's face was pure and solemn as she cast a spell.

"Swish!"

Instantly, dazzling golden light burst forth from Xilin, sweeping towards all directions with overwhelming power!

"Ah!!"

As this brilliant golden light radiated, bathing those present, those who originally passed Mu Jinyu's checks without issues suddenly had a faint dark light appearing on them.

Making their faces under the golden Holy Light appear somewhat hideous and frightening!
