"Then you are still leaving him now?"
"I am different," Huo Xingsun gestured, "I have helped him do several things. Although two of them were not completed, I can almost repay this kindness. Plus now I His weaknesses and abilities are probably already known to everyone in your Si Tian Prison, and I don’t want to be beaten all the time, so I just want to retreat bravely.”
Lu Jing knew what two things Huo Xingsun failed to accomplish, and he was more concerned about the things Huo Xingsun accomplished.
But he also knew very well in his heart that Huo Xingsun would not say anything.
Even if Huo Xingsun no longer works for Mr. Ji, he obviously will not betray Mr. Ji. This is his bottom line.
To take a step back, even if he said it, Lu Jing would be suspicious, wondering if it was a trap from the other side, so he simply didn't ask.
Changing the subject, he said, "What are you going to do after you retreat?"
"I haven't thought about it yet," Huo Xingsun shook his head, "But if you don't mind, I want to stay and think about it slowly."
"Why do you have to be here with me?" Lu Jing raised his eyebrows.
"Because you are from Si Tianjian, I am thinking of staying here. At least the people from Si Tianjian will not come to embarrass me again." Huo Xingsun said truthfully.
"Then what if Mr. Ji comes to you again and asks you to do something for him?"
"I will definitely refuse." Huo Xingsun said, "If you are willing to believe me and let me stay, I naturally can't betray you. I have no other merits, but I do what I say and promise others. Things will definitely be done.”
Lu Jing was noncommittal and asked after a moment, "How long have you been following Mr. Ji?"
"You said you have known Mr. Ji for about seven years, and you have helped him work for two years."
"So you are quite familiar with him."
"I can't say that I'm familiar with him. In fact, no one can really understand him. Although everyone respects and loves him," Huo Xingsun said, "but there are also many mysteries about him. For example, his life experience, he seems to have never been... I haven’t mentioned it to anyone else, and his plans..."
"Even the people who execute plans for him can often only see a glimpse of what's going on in front of them and don't know his backhand and other arrangements. So I advise you not to waste your efforts trying to get his secrets from me."
Huo Xingsun warned sincerely.
However, he later heard Lu Jingdao, "I'm not asking you about Mr. Ji, but I want to ask about a rare object."
"Strange object, what strange object?" Huo Xingsun was startled when he heard this.
"A small wooden mannequin, I don't know if you have heard of it. It runs very fast and can help people practice martial arts. Unfortunately, it can't speak."
Huo Xingsun shook his head again, "I didn't know there was such a strange object, and I never heard Mr. Ji mention it."
Lu Jingwei was a little disappointed.
After he discovered that Amu was a rare object, he never told anyone else because he was worried about Si Tianjian's attitude. Moreover, he was unable to protect himself at that time and was tortured every day by the troubles of internal and secret powers.
I can’t take care of Amu’s affairs for the time being.
But now that he has barely overcome the difficulty, and his strength has also increased significantly, he naturally starts to pay attention to this matter again.
Huo Xingsun himself is also a rare object. Lu Jing wanted to see if he could find some clues about Amu's life experience from him, but now it seems that this is the first time that Huo Xingsun has heard of Amu.
"You said he can run and jump, but can't talk?" Huo Xingsun suddenly said again.
"right."
"That shouldn't be made by Mr. Ji."
"Why do you say that?" Lu Jing frowned.
"Because if Mr. Ji wants to refine such a humanoid wonder, he will usually retain the ability to speak. He personally told me that it would be very painful for a person if he cannot speak, let alone him. You will have a long life, so speaking becomes even more important.”
"What if something went wrong while he was refining it?"
"Others may make mistakes, but it's hard for me to believe that Mr. Ji will also make mistakes." Huo Xingsun said, "When he made me into a strange object, it could be said that he did it in one go. In the meantime, I felt as if I was asleep. It's the same as when you sleep, and when you wake up, you already have the magical power to control fire."
"I heard that refining rare items requires extracting a soul. What will happen to the extracted soul?" Lu Jing continued to ask.
Huo Xingsun's face changed slightly when he heard this.
Lu Jing could see that he was undergoing a fierce psychological struggle at this moment.
After a while, Fire Elemental Sun said again, "It will be...put in a safe place."
However, his vague answer obviously did not satisfy Lu Jing, so Lu Jing continued to ask, "What is a safe place?"
"Uh... I chose this place myself. I usually choose something that is relatively hard and durable, such as jade and pearls. There are also candidates for the Glazed Tower."
Although Huo Xingsun tried his best to only answer the questions asked by Lu Jing and not mention any other details, Lu Jing still heard something fishy from it.
"What happens if those things are found?"
Huo Xingsun sighed, "Then our lives will be in that person's hands."
"Can that thing affect you?"
"That's right." Huo Xingsun said as he took out a thumb-sized red agate stone from his arms.
"The soul I lack is stored in this stone."
Lu Jing took it and looked at it, and found that the agate stone seemed to be the same as other agates except for its bright color.
Then he threw it back to Huo Xingsun.
Huo Xingsun seemed a little surprised, "You...you heard what I just said, why don't you take this thing away to ensure that I won't cause trouble to you after I stay?"
"I can control you without this thing." Lu Jing said calmly.
"…………"
"Besides, Mr. Ji didn't even take away your soul, so how could I be inferior to him?"
The fire element sun is dumb.
However, this was indeed the first time that Lu Jing knew how to deal with strange objects. It turned out that there was such a simple way. As long as he found the container that contained the soul of the strange object, the battle could end early.
This also made Lu Jing more eager to find Amu's soul.
Amu is still safe and sound now, which means that its soul is still relatively safe at this time, but it will be hard to say in the future. Obviously, you still have to hold this kind of thing in your own hands to feel at ease.
Lu Jing asked Huo Xingsun the last question, "After being refined into a strange object, is it possible to recover?
"There is no possibility. The entire refining process is irreversible, so Mr. Ji repeatedly confirmed with us several times before refining us into a rare object. However... if you just want to help it regain its ability to speak, Maybe it’s still possible.”
