Mr. Liu looked at his son who had died, closed his eyes and nodded, "Your Highness, please..."
Shui Ying stepped forward and reached out his hand towards Master Liu's pubic area with an expressionless expression.
He opened the belly and pulled out a red stone stained with blood.
Ye Jiuyou immediately used his spiritual power to heal the wound, and did not leave Master Liu's body open like this.
Mizukage handed over the clean red stone, "Master, the stone is full of cracks."
Ye Jiuyou took the stone and looked at the blood-red color inside, which was so rich that it turned black, and suddenly felt sick.
She handed the stone to Di Yin, "Look what this is." Then she looked at Master Liu, "Where is Phoenix Mountain?"
"It's just thirty miles outside the city."
Ye Jiuyou nodded, "Then we'll leave first."
Mr. Liu knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully, "Best farewell to Your Highness, the Crown Princess!"
After leaving Liu's house, everyone went to Fenghuang Mountain, thirty miles outside the city, overnight.
The clue must be here in Phoenix Mountain.
Di Yin checked the red stone before and concluded that it came from the divine world.
It is a blood essence stone that is only found in the God Realm.
Although the blood essence stone is a sacred stone, it is just a decoration for the gods and can be made into exquisite jewelry or carved ornaments.
Unexpectedly, after this thing came to the human world, it was refined and turned into a strange stone that could control people.
...
Phoenix Mountains.
It was already late at night, and the only thing quiet in the mountains was the chirping of birds and animals.
Ye Jiuyou was walking alone in the mountains and forests, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.
Since her blood smelled so good, she wanted to see if there were evil spirits on Phoenix Mountain.
The sound of her stepping on dead branches and leaves as she walked was particularly clear, which made the sounds of insects around her become much more complicated.
Not long after, someone quickly approached Ye Jiuyou with a breath.
The visitor was in a crazy state, and when he saw Ye Jiuyou, he would pounce on her and suck her blood.
Ye Jiuyou solved it in two moves and dug out the blood essence stone from his body.
Then she encountered several more demons, all of which she easily dealt with.
It's almost dawn.
Just when Ye Jiuyou thought her plan had failed, a figure in red appeared behind her.
Ye Jiuyou turned around, and instead of rushing forward to suck her blood, the man swung a stick directly at her.
The stick fell on Ye Jiuyou's head, but she blocked it with her spiritual power and did not really hit her.
She immediately lay down and pretended to be faint.
When the man came over, he resisted Ye Jiuyou and walked quickly deep into the forest.
Ye Jiuyou quietly opened his eyes and blinked at Di Yin who was following him in the dark.
The man in red carried Ye Jiuyou and ran for a long time, from the foot of the mountain to the top of Phoenix Mountain.
The reason why Phoenix Mountain is called Phoenix Mountain is because there are orange-red phoenix flowers all over the mountain.
It was just dawn, and the phoenix flowers all over the mountain looked like burning flames, very beautiful.
But in such a beautiful sea of phoenix flowers, there is an extremely secret cave.
The man in red carried Ye Jiuyou into the cave and threw her on a stone bed.
The man turned around and was fiddling with something on the table beside him.
Ye Jiuyou slowly sat up and looked over the situation in the cave.
There were many torches lit on the stone walls of the cave, illuminating the scene inside the cave.
There were bloodstains everywhere on the ground, and Ye Jiuyou could smell the messy smell of blood in the air.
Flavors come from different people, from many people.
The man in red, with his back to Ye Jiuyou, rummaged for something on the table and then turned around.
Eyes facing each other.
One had cold eyes, and the other had frightened eyes.
"Why did you wake up!" The man in red quickly put down the things in his hands and walked quickly towards Ye Jiuyou, muttering, "You woke up too fast, you have to knock him out again... ....”
Ye Jiuyou got out of bed slowly and watched the man in red stop in front of her.
Di Yin controlled the person and walked slowly to Ye Jiuyou's side.
Ye Jiuyou was worried that someone in the God Realm was up to something, and was afraid that they would recognize Di Yin, so he kept Di Yin invisible.
But this is just her guess. After all, God loves the human race and would not do such a thing.
The man in red looked at Ye Jiuyou in shock, "What's going on? Why can't I move!"
He couldn't see Di Yin and thought it was Ye Jiuyou who had done something to him.
Ye Jiuyou walked up to him, stretched out his hand and pulled off the black cloth covering his face.
A very unfamiliar face, that of a middle-aged man.
She ignored the middle-aged man, walked to the table, and saw the things he was holding on the table.
A very light red stone, and a knife.
There are also several boxes on the table.
Open the box and find red blood stones inside.
However, the red stone that has not absorbed blood looks extraordinarily beautiful, and is really a good item for decoration.
Ye Jiuyou turned around and kicked the man to the ground, "What on earth do you want to do by putting these blood essence stones into the monk's body?"
The middle-aged man lay straight on the ground, still unable to move, and said in a panic: "I was just following orders! I hope you will show your kindness!"
"Acting on orders, whose orders are you following?" Ye Jiuyou said coldly and stepped on his chest.
The middle-aged man felt as if a huge boulder was pressing on his chest, and it became difficult to breathe.
He said with difficulty: "Your Excellency, please stop asking, I can't tell!"
"Do you have a handle on him?"
The middle-aged man was stunned, "Yes, my daughter is in his hands, I have to do things for him!"
"Tell me who he is, and I'll help you." Ye Jiuyou bent down slightly, looking intently into the middle-aged man's eyes with his exquisite phoenix eyes.
The middle-aged man's pupils trembled violently, and then his eyes became hollow.
"I don't know who he is, he wears a mask every time he sees me."
"Then did he tell you why he dug up spiritual roots and used blood essence stones to control people who lost their spiritual roots?" Ye Jiuyou asked again.
The middle-aged man said mechanically: "He didn't say anything. He only told me to dig out the spiritual root and put the blood essence stone in it."
Ye Jiuyou frowned slightly after hearing this. It seemed that he couldn't ask anything.
This middle-aged man's cultivation level is only that of Huang Lingshi. He should be just a soldier of the mastermind behind the scenes, and he is not qualified to know the core secrets.
Ye Jiuyou looked at the table next to him and asked, "Where did the spiritual roots you dug out go?"
"After digging out the spiritual root, send out a signal, and someone will come and take it away."
Ye Jiuyou immediately walked to the table and started rummaging around, and sure enough, he found more than a dozen flares in the drawer.
When this thing is released, it is like a firework and does not attract anyone's attention.
"When do you usually send out the signal?"
"night."
Ye Jiuyou didn't have anything to ask, so he knocked the person unconscious.
Perhaps the person who took away the spiritual root was the mastermind behind it, or perhaps someone who knew more secrets.
Tonight, she wanted to see who this person was.
...
