Ying Yusha was slightly surprised.
She had not expected that Xia Ji would drink the tea that Qin Yi had given her.
Gu Feiyang had already arrived at the table. After observing for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "This tea wasn't brewed by them. It was originally left here."
"What? Originally left here? How is that possible? This palace has a history of at least a few thousand years. How could four cups of tea have been left here until now? "
Ying Yusha slightly lost her composure, but she quickly regained her composure.
She stared coldly at the remaining two cups of tea and observed the surroundings for a moment. "From the looks of it, they didn't obtain any benefits from the first level. Otherwise, they wouldn't have left the first level so soon after we delayed them for so long. "
"Perhaps the strangeness lies in these four cups of tea." Gu Feiyang took out a silver needle and tested for poison.
After a moment, he withdrew the silver needle and shook his head. "This tea isn't poisonous."
When it came to testing for poison, Ying Yusha was clearly more confident in her own abilities. She also took out an item, but it wasn't a silver needle. Instead, it was a transparent hexagonal object.
Ying Yusha placed it in the tea. After a moment, she nodded and said, "It's indeed not poisonous."
Gu Feiyang said, "That Qin brat is a shrewd person, and that slut Xia Ji isn't easy to deal with either. Since they were willing to drink this tea, perhaps this tea is the benefit of the first level. "
Ying Yusha agreed with Gu Feiyang's deduction. "That must be the case. Since it's not poisonous, there's no harm in drinking it. What if there's an opportunity in this tea? "
As they spoke, they looked at each other, took a cup each, and drank it.
The two of them were also straightforward. After drinking the tea, they ran after them with all their might.
The second level's space was much stranger than the first level's.
Neither Qin Yi nor Xia Ji had expected that the second level's layout would be like a garden.
In the middle of the second level's space, there was an ancient tree with intertwined roots. Its lush branches and leaves spread out, almost covering the entire second level's space.
Around the ancient tree, there were layers of pale green flowing light that could be seen and disappeared.
"What is this?"
Qin Yi was dumbfounded. He had never imagined that there would be such a huge ancient tree on the second floor.
Shouldn't such large ancient trees appear in ancient forests, or in high mountains and valleys?
The sudden appearance of such an ancient tree in the room really surprised Qin Yi.
However, Xia Ji's eyes had been glued to the ancient tree ever since she had laid eyes on it. She was unable to move her eyes away.
"This is a Grade 1 Divine Phoenix Perching Tree!"
"What?" Qin Yi could not help but ask in shock when he heard Xia Ji's excited voice.
"Can't you see? That's the Phoenix Perch Wood Spirit Fruit. The tail of the fruit has tassels like a phoenix's tail. This is the Phoenix Perch Wood Spirit Fruit! "
"Phoenix Perch Wood Spirit Fruit? What was that? Is it something good? "
"Of course, the legendary Divine Fruit. It's a true treasure of creation! " Xia Ji's voice began to tremble. "Why would a fortunate artifact appear in the Forsaken Land of the Gods? Why would it appear in such a desolate place? This doesn't make sense. "
Although Qin Yi had never heard of the Phoenix Perch Wood Spirit Fruit, he guessed that the tree was indeed extraordinary after seeing Xia Ji's reaction.
Otherwise, this girl, who had always been able to keep her composure, would never lose her composure like this.
As they spoke, they heard footsteps coming from behind them.
Ying Yusha and Gu Feiyang dashed forward.
It was obvious that their attention was also attracted by the ancient tree.
They did not recognize the Grade 1 Divine Phoenix Perch Wood either, but that did not mean that they were ignorant. Judging from the mysterious aura emitted by the ancient tree, they could tell that it was no ordinary object at first glance.
In terms of level, it was definitely of a higher level than any treasure they had picked up before. Its noble aura could even be sensed with the naked eye.
Ying Yusha chuckled and said to Xia Ji, "Saintess, what's this tree? You mentioned that it's some sort of fortunate artifact? "
They had only heard the second half of the conversation since they were late. However, they did not hear the first half of Xia Ji's words.
Xia Ji shook her head. "I didn't say anything."
Ying Yusha was not angry. Instead, she looked at Xia Ji with interest. "Saintess, this kid seems to be going against our sect, right? Why do you look like you're talking and laughing with him? It seems like you're very close. Did something happen between the two of you before I came here? "
Xia Ji glanced at her. "What are you trying to say?"
Ying Yusha smiled and said, "Our sect's Saintess has always been as pure as ice and clean as jade. She must keep her chastity and not be tempted by worldly desires. You're different from me. I specialize in the art of seduction. Seducing men is part of my job. If you're tempted by worldly desires, your status as the Saintess will be in question. "
Xia Ji smiled indifferently. "Why? Was the dagger about to be revealed? Senior Sister Ying, there are no fools here. You've always been against me and dissatisfied with my position in the sect. Do you think I don't know that? "
Ying Yusha did not deny it. "You're right. You're so young, but the sect favors you. They give you all the resources first. I, Ying Yusha, am as talented as you are, but I'm only below you. You have to choose what we eat and what we use first. Tell me, why should I? "
"And then?" Xia Ji was expressionless.
"And then?" Ying Yusha smiled happily. "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I think it's time for us to put an end to the open and secret fights between us."
"That's what you've been trying to do all this time, isn't it?" Xia Ji's lips curled into a cold smile.
"You're right. You're smart, but smart people usually die faster."
Ying Yusha was very generous. She did not deny anything Xia Ji said.
"Luo Zhenzhen is dead. I killed her. I'm afraid you didn't know that, did you? "
Xia Ji's calm expression finally changed. She looked at Ying Yusha coldly. "Did Luo Zhenzhen's status get in your way?"
"If she didn't die, she would have followed me in. That's why she deserved to die. "Ying Yusha's tone was cold.
"What about him? Aren't you afraid that he'll spread rumors? "Xia Ji glanced at Gu Feiyang.
"Will you?" Ying Yusha smiled strangely as she looked at Gu Feiyang.
Gu Feiyang also revealed a mocking expression. "I will. I will tell the world that the Holy Daughter of the Green Lotus Sect was defeated by a brat from the Yin-Yang Academy of the Azure Net Nation. She was raped and then killed."
Qin Yi had been standing to the side and had not said a word. When he heard this, he frowned. "Gu Feiyang, are you a mad dog? I didn't want to get involved in their feud. Do you really want to drag me down with you? Do you think you can hide it from the world that you've become this witch's lackey? "
