Chapter 480: Raising a Tree with Blood
??
After dinner, Ye Jiushang went to do something else. He did not tell Xue Fanxin about it, only saying that he was going to the palace. She did not ask further. After eating and drinking her fill, she went to the Reverse Spirit Heaven Wheel’s space.
Previously, she had planted quite a few fruits and vegetables in her space. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, they had all grown up and could be eaten.
“Do things grow faster with Breathing Earth?” Xue Fanxin plucked and stored all the ripe fruits and vegetables. Then, she turned the soil over and planted new seeds to see if they would grow faster this time.
Next, Xue Fanxin went to the side of the Tree of Life and watered it. “Little Divine Tree, I really have to thank you. If not for you, Ah Jiu might still be in a life and death crisis. You have to grow up quickly, so I can help Ah Jiu…”
Xue Fanxin suddenly recalled how the spider lily had bitten her finger and drunk her blood… If she let the Tree of Life drink her blood, she wondered what would happen?
Her blood contained the power of nirvana. Just by hearing the name, one could tell that it was a good thing. Why not give it a try first? Even if it had no effect, it shouldn’t have any negative consequences, right?
Xue Fanxin pierced her finger with a silver needle and dripped a drop of her blood onto the Tree of Life. Then, she observed it carefully for a while. However, even after looking until her eyes were sleepy, she did not gain anything. She thought that her blood should be useless to the Tree of Life, so she went to sleep and forgot about it.
While Xue Fanxin was busy collecting and planting vegetables, Ye Jiushang was playing chess with the Heavenly Saints Emperor in the palace.
The Heavenly Saints Emperor faced Ye Jiushang with incomparable nervousness and panic. His entire body was drenched in a cold sweat, and his hand that was holding the chess piece was trembling. Even though Ye Jiushang was playing chess with him calmly, he was still so frightened that he was shaking like a leaf.
Back then, he had believed Su Baifeng’s words and made things difficult for Xue Fanxin. He had not expected Ye Jiushang to come looking for him so quickly. It was really… depressing!
“Jiushang, you came to look for me so late at night. It should be about Xue Fanxin, right? That matter was indeed my fault. I shouldn’t have listened to Su Baifeng’s slander, nor should I have had any crooked thoughts. However, I’ve already mediated with Xue Fanxin. I hope you…”
“I’m not here for that.” Ye Jiushang knew that the Heavenly Saints Emperor had attacked Xue Fanxin when he was not around.
If not for Xin’er having negotiated with Heavenly Saints Emperor, how could he have let him off so easily?
The Heavenly Saints Emperor relaxed a little, but he was still nervous. “Then why are you here tonight?”
“I’m here about Consort Qi.”

The Heavenly Saints Emperor was so frightened that his hand trembled. He lost his grip on the chess piece, and it fell onto the chessboard, disrupting the game.
Ye Jiushang ignored it and continued to play his game. “You’ve watched so much drama for so many years. You’ve seen enough, right?”
“I… I don’t understand what you mean.”
“Do you not understand or are you unwilling to understand? The reason I kept the Ghost King alive until now is not that I can’t kill him but because I don’t want to take the blame for others. There is another reason for Consort Qi’s death, and she has another identity. If she had not begged bitterly back then, I would not have hidden the truth for you until now.”
“What… what are you talking about?” The Heavenly Saints Emperor panicked even more. He looked at Ye Jiushang in extreme fear as cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
If the Ghost King knew the real cause of Consort Qi’s death, he would be dead.
