Chapter 1278 – The Peculiarity In The Pure Spirit Tower (3)
If everything was really like their speculations.
Then…
Were all the elves in the entire Moon God Continent already infected with filth?
Such a disaster… it was enough to destroy the Elves!
“I am not sure. It’s still unknown why the life force here is so much stronger than outside. If this is only a separated
part of the Tree of Life, then it is fine. However, if this is actually connected to the Tree of Life, then I’m afraid that
this situation the elves have to face is not so simple.” Xiu’s brows creased up. He didn’t care about the life and death
of the elves. What he cared was that Shen Yanxiao was in the Moon God Continent right now. If the pollution was
leaking out from the Tree of Life, it would be too dangerous for Shen Yanxiao to continue staying here.
After all, because of the seal on her body, her source of life absorbed the life force very quickly. This was supposed
to be a good thing, but if pollution was mixed with it, it could only be a bad thing.
“We can only investigate this by ourselves. Elder Yue does not look like he’s going to tell me more about this for the
moment, and Qie Er does not seem to know more about the origin of these trunks.” Shen Yanxiao was very smart.
Even if Elder Yue was very optimistic about her, all the bits of information about the Tree of Life were the highest
secrets of the elves, and it was impossible to leak them so easily.
“This is not difficult.”
Shen Yanxiao blinked her eyes at Xiu. Because Xiu was carrying her with one hand, her current position right now
was sitting directly on Xiu’s arm, with her pair of small hands coiling around Xiu’s neck.
Due to the matter of pollution, Shen Yanxiao did not realize how ambiguous the positions of the two of them were,
but Xiu’s expression just now made her sober up.
Her face was side by side with that handsome and elegant face; half a finger distance more and their faces would
already touch each other.
Shen Yanxiao could clearly see Xiu’s skin, which was very clean and white; she couldn’t see even a single pore!
She could also see his long, thick and curly eyelashes, like a small fan.
The sharp tip of his nose, and his thin lips…
Badump… Badump…
Shen Yanxiao suddenly heard the sound of her own heartbeat
Xiu did not notice that a certain little fellow was peeping at his “beauty”. He raised his empty hand and gently laid
his slender fingers on the branches. Then, strands of silver light overflowed from his fingertips, winding around the
branches…
“What are you doing?” Shen Yanxiao forced her restless heart and tried her best to make herself “serious” up.
“I’m extending my power to this tree so that I can tell its main body. If this tree is independent, then I should be able
to perceive its roots, if not…” Xiu did not finish what he was about to say. He constantly sent out his own power,
extending his line of perception. The silver light coiled around the trunk and gradually submerged into the ground.
The elves in the few floors below were cultivating and had not noticed the silver threads, which were as thin as
strands of hair, spread over the thick trunk from top to bottom, until they went deep underground.
Shen Yanxiao quietly stared at the side of Xiu’s face. Xiu rarely displayed any expression; raising his eyebrow, or
knitting them into a frown, the times she had seen him doing these things were really rather few. His face always
held that cold and detached expression, that repelled people thousands of miles away.
But somehow, Shen Yanxiao saw a trace of seriousness in his eyes at this moment, and that hidden spirit within his
eyes made his whole person seem to be brimming with attractiveness.
