Hexi blankly stared, then suddenly she opened her eyes wide. For a split second, she thought she heard wrong.
Divine Dragon Fruit?! Although she did deliberately mention to Wu Yu that she was looking for the Divine Dragon Fruit, she never thought she would be able to get it through this exchange.
After all, the Divine Dragon Fruit was extremely precious, the process of obtaining it is very challenging, forget about even a few people being able to obtain it. But, even if one does manage to obtain the fruit, with it’s high value, who would be stupid enough to trade it away?
Hexi accepted the jade box and opened it. After taking one look at it, she already knew this really was the Divine Dragon Fruit. This Divine Dragon Fruit was Little Golden Dragon’s most needed spiritual fruit, it was the one which could heal him the most.
Speaking to the middle-aged man, her tone was very mild, “Do you have any relatives who need me to detoxify or save them? Bring me over to see them?”
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man stood in the same spot he was originally. His face was filled with sadness and desperation and after a while, he finally said, “No more…… No more…… There’s already nobody left, it’s too late!”
He suddenly turned around, pointing to a distant silhouette of a woman lying down. Then he pointed to the ground where the blood boiled then disappeared. Distressed, he said, “Genius Doctor Xi, do you understand now? That is my wife and son, just one hour before, they were still alive. Although my son was infected, he at the very least had the will to live.”
“But, Feng Yian Ling– –! It’s all because of Feng Yian Ling, that malicious woman! Unexpectedly, she forced my son to eat the Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pill. Letting my son explode and die, becoming nothing but a puddle of blood.”
“My wife was so angry, she went to argue. But, she ended up being seriously injured by Liu Li Temple’s people!”
“I’m unwilling, I’m very unwilling! Clearly, our family is nothing more than insignificant warriors. And Liu Li Sect, everybody minds their own business. For what reason did Feng Yian Ling not take our lives as lives? Why did she allow my family to fall apart? The family is bankrupt and the people are dead! [1]
The middle-aged man’s voice was full of suffering and despair, breaking one’s heart. Tears were flowing down his face.
Hexi was silent for a long time, gently pinching the jade box. Lowering her voice, “You gifted me the Divine Dragon Fruit, but what do you want me to do for you?”
The man miserably shook his head, “After losing my wife and child, these material items no longer have any worth to me. My family passed on specific ways to make charms. My family stayed in Burning Heaven Realm for seven days and seven nights, ambushing people. With great difficulty, we were able to obtain this Divine Dragon Fruit. The original hope was to improve my son’s aptitude, giving him the ability to enter an influential sect to give him a more promising future.”
“But now, it’s all over! All finished! What use is this Divine Dragon Fruit to me now?!”
The man’s voice got heavier and heavier, filled with more and more sadness and hatred. He seemed to have lost all hope before slowly lowering his voice, “Genius Doctor Xi, if I was to say I had any hopes left, it would be that one day when you deal with that slut Feng Yian Ling… When you give Feng Yian Ling and Liu Li Sect a tragic end, let me watch this scene with my own eyes!”
Hexi raised her eyebrows up and noncommittally said, “How do you know that I will deal with Feng Yian Ling? And how do you know that I have the strength to bring Liu Li Sect to a tragic end?”
