Chen Yuntong?
Upon seeing the woman's face, Chen Yuntong's image immediately came to mind.
The woman in front of me looked remarkably similar to Chen Yuntong, with a resemblance of six or seven points.
What's going on?
Is this treacherous person Chen Yuntong's mother?
Thinking about this, He Xie couldn't help but feel that it was a bit outrageous.
He looked down at the woman on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Do you know Chen Yuntong?"
The woman remained silent, her face expressionless.
He Xie smiled, and with a thought, took out a small leather whip from his system backpack.
A magical little whip, perfect for cracking up stubbornness.
He raised the small leather whip and lashed it across the woman's body with a sharp crack.
The woman frowned, her face filled with humiliation.
The lash He Xie delivered to her caused virtually no physical harm, but was extremely humiliating.
However, He Xie had no intention of humiliating her; he only wanted to trigger the effect of the small whip, put her into a state of enslavement where she had to answer any question, and then interrogate her.
"What is your relationship with Chen Yuntong...?"
"...Buzz!"
He Xie was speaking when a whooshing sound suddenly came from behind him.
His eyes narrowed, and he turned to strike with his knife.
"Whoosh—"
With a flash of light, two thick vines fell to the ground with two thuds.
Then, in the next second, He Xie's adrenaline surged.
Meanwhile, the SAN value is -1-1-1-1-1-1......
He suddenly discovered that in front of him stood a strange giant tree covered with human heads.
"Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy Card, Consume!"
"Bioinformation panel, spying!"
As soon as the two commands were given, a bio-information panel quickly appeared deep within my mind.
[Name]: Tree Demon Clone
[Race]: Demon Plant
[Rank]: Epic Tier 2
[Skills]: Soul Binding, Corpse Control
[Weakness]: None
In a mere second, He Xie had already peered through the biological information panel of this tree demon clone.
Then, with his exceptional skill and daring, he rushed forward and swung his sword fiercely.
Bankai Mode!
Qi and blood release outwards!
Evil-repelling Knife Technique!
The three combined, pointing directly at the tree trunk of the tree demon's clone.
"Whoosh—"
A sharp, slashing sound rang out.
The next second!
The Soul-Slaying Blade struck the tree trunk of the tree demon's clone with swift, precise, and ruthless speed, directly targeting its soul.
And then... the tree demon clone was completely unharmed.
"Holy crap!"
He Xie cursed, immediately sheathed his knife, and ran away.
The level difference is too great; I can't cut through it.
He's gone!
[Contrast value from Chen Caiqing: +9272.]
[Contrast value from the Tree Demon's clone: +8696.]
He Xie's escape was too decisive, a stark contrast to his previous composed demeanor, leaving both the person and the tree completely bewildered.
"Quick, don't let him get away!"
The woman reacted immediately and shouted to the tree demon clone beside her.
The tree demon's clone is just an avatar with very low intelligence; it needs to receive commands to act.
Soon, several buzzing sounds were heard.
From within the dense foliage of the tree demon's clone, several thick vines burst forth, attacking He Xie at an incredible speed.
He Xie drew his Soul-Slaying Blade again and slashed at the vines.
Then, to my surprise, I found that this time I couldn't cut the vines at all.
"Smack!"
A cracking sound of a whip rang out.
He Xie was whipped, his skin and flesh instantly torn open, and he gasped in pain.
This can't go on; sooner or later, someone will lose their life.
"Ever-changing, gaseous!"
The moment the thought crossed his mind, He Xie instantly transformed into a colorless and invisible mass of air, rising into the air and escaping quickly.
However!
The tree demon clone below was much more troublesome than he had imagined.
Suddenly, a vine covered in finger bones shot up from the dense foliage of the tree demon's clone and forcefully grabbed him from his gaseous state.
"What the hell?!"
He Xie was shocked, stunned by the tree demon clone below.
However, he quickly realized that the creature that could capture him in his current state was most likely the one with the biological skill called Soul Binding.
"This life is going to be wasted."
He Xie thought to himself, then instantly materialized, reaching out to grab his own throat and twist it.
Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well give myself a quick death and avoid being tortured.
Just as he was about to make his move, a deep voice suddenly rang out from the sky.
"court death!"
As the voice appeared, a giant hand descended from the sky and slammed down on the tree demon on the ground.
Then, a loud bang was heard.
The tree demon clone, which had just been blotting out the sky, was instantly pulverized by a single slap.
He Xie was stunned.
A terrifying demonic plant with a biological level as high as Epic Tier 2 was slapped to death.
Who did this?!
Just as they were wondering, dozens or even hundreds of vines suddenly emerged from the ground with a loud rumble.
Instead of attacking He Xie, the vines instantly wrapped the woman on the ground into a pupa, then dragged her into the ground and disappeared in an instant.
"Hmph, trying to escape?"
The deep voice rang out again.
Immediately afterwards, a streak of light descended from the sky and crashed into the ground with a loud bang, disappearing from sight.
These scenes all happened in the blink of an eye.
Before He Xie could even process what had happened, it was all over.
At that moment, he was looking down at the large pit at his feet.
A large pit with a palm print, nearly ten meters wide and more than ten meters deep.
"Just who is the person who just slapped me? What level of expert is he?"
Why fall into deep thought?
However, he soon stopped worrying about it.
He then turned his gaze to the remains of the demonic plant on the ground.
Then he touched them one by one, and a thought occurred to him:
"Devour!"
The moment the thought crossed his mind, all the remnants of the demonic plants that were touched transformed into streams of light and flowed into He Xie's Heavenly Gate, disappearing without a trace.
In their place came a series of numerical notification messages.
[Qi and Blood +3534!]
[Spirit +357!]
[Wood attribute +8%!]
[Vitality +38%!]
[Poison resistance +26%!]
......
[Qi and Blood +3947!]
[Spirit +876!]
[Wood attribute +9%!]
[Vitality +28%!]
[Poison resistance +19%!]
......
[Qi and Blood +3322!]
[...]
[...33%!]
......
"Ouch, that feels good!"
Having gained so many attributes in such a short time, He Xie felt so good, both physically and mentally, that he couldn't breathe.
The upgrade process is just awesome!
He steadied himself for a moment, then walked to the edge of the large pit and took a look.
It was completely empty inside; there was nothing there.
There were only some wood chips that had been crushed into powder.
"It's a pity that the tree demon's clone was smashed to dust with a single slap, otherwise, it could still experience the feeling of devouring an epic-level prehistoric alien race."
He Xie shook his head with some regret.
At this moment, several cars stopped on the road, several dozen meters apart.
It was reinforcements from the Night Watch organization.
The team, led by Li Qingteng, consisted of more than twenty people.
Lin Chuchu and Chen Yuntong were among them.
"He Xie, are you alright?"
Li Qingteng was the first to rush over and express his concern.
He Xie is a genius on whom Elder Qin has placed great hopes. If something happens to He Xie in Shanhai City, he, as the Minister of the Night Watch, will definitely suffer the consequences.
"It's nothing serious."
After saying that, He Xie asked, "Minister Li, who has the highest biological level in our Nanjiang Province?"
He was very curious about the mysterious person who had just slapped the tree demon's clone to death and wanted to know who this person was.
Li Qingteng didn't know why He Xie was asking this.
But upon hearing his question, he quickly replied, "I don't know who has the highest biological level, because the biological levels of the strong are secrets and will not be made public."
"However, as far as I know, there are a total of five epic-level powerhouses in our Nanjiang Province, three of whom are known to the public."
"The three on the surface are, firstly, the head of the provincial Night Watchmen branch, and secondly, the president and vice president of the Mountain and Sea Evolution University."
"As for the remaining two, I don't even know who they are."
After saying that, Li Qingteng asked curiously, "Why are you asking this?"
He Xie pointed to the large pit beside him and said, "Just now, a mysterious person slapped a monster plant with an epic-level biological status to death, saving me from the clutches of the Divine Plant Cult."
"hiss!"
Upon hearing He Xie's words, Li Qingteng immediately gasped.
Slap an epic-level demonic plant to death?
How is that possible?
Are there really such powerful figures in Nanjiang Province?
"Thank you, thank goodness you're alright!"
Lin Chuchu ran to He Xie and stopped. When she saw the dilapidated ground around her, she hugged He Xie tightly with a worried expression, afraid that he would be gone.
Chen Yuntong followed behind and felt a pang of sadness upon seeing the two embracing tightly.
Just a few months ago, He Xie was her devoted admirer.
But now, in the blink of an eye, their roles have been reversed, returning to the relationship they had in the second semester of their first year of high school and the first semester of their second year.
Back then, He Xie was a star student and a genius at school, while she was a persistent, clingy simp.
All I can say is, I'm filled with regret.
On the other side, He Xie asked Lin Chuchu to loosen her grip for a moment, saying that they could hug each other more when they had time.
Lin Chuchu felt a little shy after hearing this and quickly let go of his hand.
She was very worried and didn't think too much about it, so she hugged He Xie in front of so many people.
Now that I've calmed down, I suddenly feel very embarrassed.
Seeing her like this, He Xie couldn't help but smile.
Then he walked over to Xu Zhide, who was wearing a mask, and stopped. He skillfully used his mental projection to pull Xu Zhide out of the ground.
Upon witnessing this scene, some of the Night Watchmen who didn't know much about He Xie were all shocked.
This top scorer in the city was able to use his mental power to levitate an adult from a distance?
What's going on?
He was just a prospective college student, how did he manage to do that?
[The contrast value from the Night's Watch: +9272 + 7854 + 7654 = 8964 + 9583...]
He Xie accepted these contrasting values with a smile.
Then he threw the masked Xu Zhide in front of Li Qingteng and said in a calm voice, "This man is a traitor of the Divine Plant Cult. If I'm not mistaken, his identity should be Xu Zhide."
Upon hearing this, the night watchmen and Chen Yuntong were all stunned.
What? !
Is Xu Zhide a traitor within the Divine Plant Cult?
The Night Watchmen were shocked by the news.
Among them, Li Qingteng was the first to step forward and remove his mask. When he saw that the person under the mask was indeed Li Qingteng, he was immediately filled with anger.
A surge of anger at being betrayed.
The dignified captain of the Night's Watch has become a traitor within the Cult of Plants. Where does this leave the face of the Night's Watch minister?
While everyone's attention was focused on Xu Zhide, He Xie walked up to Chen Yuntong and stopped, asking her, "Is your mother's name Chen Caiqing?"
Upon hearing He Xie's question, Chen Yuntong frowned slightly, wondering why he had suddenly come over to ask this.
But she quickly replied, "My mother's name is Chen Yu'er, not Chen Caiqing."
Um?
After hearing Chen Yuntong's answer, He Xie was clearly stunned for a moment, thinking that he had misheard.
