"Wuwu..."

"It shouldn't be like this..."

Xilin's eyes were blank, she cried softly, unable to accept this fact, like a lost little girl.

Under normal circumstances, Xilin wouldn't have collapsed like this.

But ever since she fell into Mu Jinyu's hands, she'd been continuously hit hard, her fragile heart already on the verge of shattering. And now, the Divine Plant she so desperately desired, which could help her escape Mu Jinyu's clutches, was completely out of reach, causing her to break down completely.

The most crucial point, and the biggest blow to her, was how the Divine Plant could truly acknowledge a lowly human as its master.

She just couldn't understand it!

Wasn't the Divine Race far more noble than the Human Race?

Shouldn't this little lotus with only three leaves have chosen to leave Mu Jinyu and fall into her embrace immediately after seeing her?

Could it be... the Divine Race is not more noble than the Human Race?

This was the real reason why Xilin began to question life itself.

Mu Jinyu watched as Xilin cried, feeling a little dumbfounded as well.

He thought to himself, luckily he brought her into the air for a talk, otherwise, if people saw her like this, they'd think he bullied her.

However, what was up with this woman?

Wasn't she a mighty figure of the Void Breaking Realm?

Why does she seem so fragile?

Is she really just a sheltered flower?

If so, then the Divine Race and that side of the Canglan Realm must be incredibly powerful, right? They've never been tempered by anything and yet possess Earth's peak combat power, just like primary school students!

"Ugh, stop crying! It's driving me crazy!" Mu Jinyu yelled at Xilin, exasperated by her cries.

"I won't... wuwu... haeh..." Xilin still sniffled quietly, her face full of resentment.

Mu Jinyu thought for a moment, realizing he couldn't waste time with Xilin. He had to find a way to make her reveal the method of detecting Demonic Qi.

After a moment, Mu Jinyu looked at the sobbing Xilin and said, "Do you know where my Divine Plant came from?"

"Where did it come from?"

Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Xilin's sobs stopped abruptly, she looked up sharply at Mu Jinyu, sniffed, and asked, eyes brimming with curiosity.

Mu Jinyu said, "Mount Tai, the mountain you crossed from the Canglan Realm..."

"There!" Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Xilin stopped sobbing, her large eyes gleaming brighter and brighter as if she thought of something.

She thought that this Divine Plant might not be naturally born on Earth, but connected from another region, just like how she accidentally came here, and then was obtained by Mu Jinyu.

If that was the case...

Doesn't she also have a chance to find an unclaimed Divine Plant over there?

Xilin was immediately tempted.

Her imagination ran wild.

Mu Jinyu saw the light in Xilin's eyes, not knowing what she was thinking but could guess the gist. He smiled slightly, seized the opportunity, and said, "Last time I got this lotus, there were still many similar Divine Plants over there, but the locations were quite dangerous. We need to wait until the spaces completely merge, and then I can go and get them..."

"Really?" Xilin shouted loudly, her voice sharp due to excitement.

Mu Jinyu nodded and said, "Yes, so if you cooperate well, I could take you over there next time. Maybe you'll have a chance to own one of these Divine Plants..."

"Hmm?!" Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's almost guaranteed words, Xilin's eyes filled with suspicion as she looked at Mu Jinyu, full of doubt.

Mu Jinyu saw this, knowing that this "primary school student" couldn't be easily fooled. After thinking it over, he waved his hand to conjure an image.

In the image was a small tree, its trunk sturdy and gnarled, seeming like an ancient tree that had lived for millions of years. Its leaves were all different, with some shaped like towers, some like cauldrons, and some like bells…

"What is this..."

The moment Xilin saw the little tree, her eyes widened, and her mouth dropped open enough to fit an apple.

With her knowledge, even though she had never seen a Divine Plant before, she could recognize at first sight that this wasn't an aura and elegance nurtured by ordinary Spirit Roots and Spirit Plants. This must also be another Divine Plant!

And it appeared not inferior in the least to the Three-Leaf Youlian that Mu Jinyu had, perhaps even stronger!

In an instant, Xilin was tempted.

She wanted nothing more than to fly right to Mount Tai and subdue this little tree full of Dao rhyme!

Mu Jinyu waved his hand to dispel the image, smiling, "How about that? I didn't lie to you, right?"

Xilin's eyes remained dazed, immersed in various beautiful fantasies. When she heard Mu Jinyu's words, she had no immediate reaction.

It wasn't until Mu Jinyu called out a few times that she came to her senses, dumbly nodding, "Ah, it is a Divine Plant, you weren't lying..."

As she spoke, she completely recovered her wits, her eyes sparkling brightly at Mu Jinyu, like two gorgeous rubies, "You must take me there, I want this tree!"

'Hahaha... little student, see if you don't bite!'

Mu Jinyu smugly laughed inwardly.

The little tree he just showed Xilin was, of course, the Mystical Little Tree hidden in his Sea of Consciousness. However, he wouldn't reveal this to Xilin, having two Divine Plants by himself. Being found out that he had one was enough, how could he let her know everything?

Though Xilin had a primary school student's mindset, her vision was sharp, and ordinary things couldn't deceive her. Mu Jinyu could only show her the appearance of the Mystical Little Tree to trick her and make a blank promise!

Though this act seemed a bit indecent, rather nefarious, making Mu Jinyu feel guilty of deceiving a primary school student.

But there was no choice, since Xilin kept holding onto the solution and wouldn't say anything, persistently using it to threaten him. He could only resort to this tactic, giving her an empty promise.

Moreover, he wasn't exactly deceiving Xilin because both the Mystical Little Tree and the Three-Leaf Youlian were, indeed, obtained by others from Mount Tai.

Though they were acquired only as seeds back then.

In the future, it's possible they really might find other Divine Plants over at Mount Tai. By then, he'd give Xilin a chance to let her be the first to subdue one!

"Fine, I can take you over to find it in the future, and once discovered, you can be the first to subdue it. I can even tell you the experience of how I subdued this lotus, but first, you must tell me how to detect those people with problems..."

Mu Jinyu spoke solemnly.

Hearing this, hesitation appeared on Xilin's face.

Mu Jinyu seeing her hesitation could only fan the flames, saying, "You should know that the person who teamed up with me to defeat you that day is my master. He also has always wanted such a Divine Plant, but I haven't told him about this yet. Think it over..."

Hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Xilin felt torn and troubled!

Originally, her plan was to use this method to exchange it for the Divine Plant in Mu Jinyu's hands, but how did it suddenly turn into exchanging information with Mu Jinyu?

Wasn't this too much of a loss?

She was somewhat unwilling.

Mu Jinyu also noticed Xilin's conflict and said, "Do you really think that your detection method is worth a whole Divine Plant? Can it trade for a Divine Plant in your Canglan Realm?"

Before Xilin could answer, Mu Jinyu answered directly, "Absolutely not! You're just trying to exploit the situation because we haven't thought of another way yet!"

Hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Xilin's face immediately showed a look of dejection.

"In your Canglan Realm, not to mention a complete Divine Plant, the value of the information about a Divine Plant would far exceed the value of the spell you provided. You should be satisfied!" Mu Jinyu calmly said.

"Fine, I agree." Xilin's face was indecisive, but finally, she gritted her teeth and gave in.
