"This Soul Seed should be called the Nirvana Flame. It's an outstanding flame used to refine magic equipment. I believe those blacksmiths would be willing to pay a high price for it!" said Ling Ling with a smile.
"To be honest, I still can't believe it. This is a Soul Seed, a Soul Seed that's hard to find even with a thousand gold coins …" said Zhang Xiaohou with a blank face.
Mo Fan was also looking at the light yellow Soul Seed in the container. He clearly remembered how the mantis was unaware of the oriole behind when he first obtained the Rose Flame. He even almost lost his life to that perverted murderer. When he thought about how easy it was to obtain the Nirvana Flame, he was left speechless for a moment.
"I believe we shouldn't just focus on the Soul Seed. Even though the Burning Valley is known for its flames, there are some unique natural resources that can only blossom and bear fruits after the flames have reached a certain level. Therefore, the Fire Calamity basically gave them a chance to grow …" Chen Ying was obviously not interested in the Nirvana Flame. She seemed to be in a rush to find something else.
Mo Fan glanced at Chen Ying. He had a strong feeling that the woman's goal was not as simple as she had initially mentioned.
"Chen Ying, since we're on the same team, we've been through thick and thin together. Why don't you tell us what you know?" said Xinxia to Chen Ying.
"I … I … what do I know? I just … I just think we should set our sights higher … it's that simple. " Chen Ying was obviously not good at lying. She was already panicking before the others even questioned her.
How could the others not be suspicious of her? Especially Zhao Manyan, who had brought her here. They were a family after all. Zhao Manyan had only allowed her to tag along because he trusted her.
Zhao Manyan glanced at Chen Ying. He felt that Chen Ying should not be hiding anything from the others. As such, he said to Chen Ying in a serious tone, "I already told you before we came here that they are all trustworthy people. We can all tell that your understanding of the Burning Valley has far surpassed those of us who have prepared for it … and you're purposely guiding us to look for something. "
"I … I didn't." Chen Ying saw that everyone was looking at her, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito.
Chen Ying could not be considered a stunning beauty, but she had a self-confident look that was not annoying. In addition, she did not treat people with the arrogance of most aristocratic families, so everyone had a good impression of her. However, the things she was showing now forced everyone to have doubts about her. If there was something that could not be said directly, why did she have to use such a roundabout way to guide everyone? Besides, she did not hide it very well.
Xinxia sees that Chen Ying still doesn't want to tell her. She looks at Mofan.
"She's very uneasy, there must be something she hasn't told us," Xinxia's voice suddenly echoed in Mofan's ears, sounding a little ethereal.
Mofan stared at Xinxia in astonishment …
Xinxia didn't say anything. Why was he able to hear her voice?
"I have the Psychic Element. If I focus on listening, I can hear the thoughts and emotions of others. I can feel that Chen Ying is in a hurry, urging us to move forward, as if there's something she needs," Xinxia's voice once again floated in Mofan's mind, sounding a little ethereal.
Alright, if she could hear the thoughts of others, wasn't the Psychic Element a little too …
Didn't that mean Xinxia would be able to read his thoughts? Mofan was already planning to set up another tent tonight to lure Xinxia into it to do something even more outrageous. He was so excited when he tried to sneak into the tent last time …
"Then can you steal the secrets in her heart?" Mofan went up to Xinxia and whispered into her ear.
Xinxia shook her head and said, "I can only sense her thoughts and emotions. A person's thoughts are chaotic when they're thinking. If I want to listen to their thoughts, I'll have to cast Mind Control on them, forcing them to focus on one thing. That way, I'll be able to learn more about their thoughts. Otherwise, a Psychic Magician will lose her mind. "
"Let's not do that for now. Chen Ying is Zhao Manyan's sister, after all. Let's see if Zhao Manyan is able to convince her," Mofan said.
As the two were discussing the matter, Zhao Manyan dragged Chen Ying to the side.
Not long after, Chen Ying lowered her head. She came back to the tent.
She apologized to the group, before telling them everything she knew about the North Burning Valley.
Everyone listened attentively. After all, it might be related to something more valuable than a Soul Seed. No Magician would not be interested in it.
"I have a relative in my family. Her body is covered in burns. Not only is her face ruined, not a single part of her body is undamaged. No matter how many Healers we hired, they couldn't heal her …" Chen Ying said slowly.
"You're talking about the uncle with a different surname, right? Lu Jianli?" Zhao Manting immediately pictured a man wrapped in a white cloth all day long in his mind when he heard the words.
His house was not too far away from the man. Sometimes, when he was meditating on the balcony, he would see the white Mummy planting flowers in the backyard.
Zhao Manyan was not too familiar with the man. He had only heard rumors about him being slandered and mocked by the people in his family, saying that he was punished by the Heavens for his evil deeds, and was burned beyond recognition.
When he was young, Zhao Manyan believed the rumor. After all, the man had indeed hired many Healers, but none of them could heal him. Normally, burns could be healed with Healing Magic, or some special herbs.
"Mm, she … she's my mother," Chen Ying said in a soft voice.
"WHAT?" Zhao Manyan jumped up.
The group was dumbfounded. Even those who had never tried it knew the uncle was a man. How did he turn into a mother? They felt like their IQ was not enough.
"Have you seen her face before?" Chen Ying asked in return.
"Well … no, I've only heard … alright, it seems like we've all made a mistake," Zhao Manyan finally realized something, and smiled wryly.
As a matter of fact, Zhao Manyan did not expect the person wrapped in white cloth all day long to be a woman. There were too many rumors about her in his family. However, what shocked Zhao Manyan the most was that the person was Chen Ying's mother. His uncle, Zhao Yulin, had never mentioned it before …
"If she's your mother, who's the auntie we always call her?" Zhao Manyan asked.
"What do you think?" Chen Ying did not explain further. She bit her lips. She did not want to recall the incident.
