Chapter 431: Going Astray in Qi Cultivation
Huang Rongyu's lips curled up, and she turned to look at Ye Fei, whose eyes were still closed: "Little Fei hasn't finished activating her spiritual root yet?"
The Grand Elder shook his head: "Not yet."
When Huang Rongyu saw that Li Yuan was also there, her eyes darkened slightly, and she immediately said, "I will stay here and wait for Xiao Fei to finish activating her spiritual root."
The elder glanced at Li Yuan, then at Huang Rongyu, and immediately understood—neither of the two boys wanted to leave and insisted on staying here to wait for Ye Fei; it was because they had both fallen for Ye Fei!
The dean asked Huang Rongyu to raise her hand, examined it carefully, and nodded: "The second spiritual root is indeed a water spiritual root, not bad."
Huang Rongyu withdrew her hand, paused, and asked, "Dean, Xiao Fei and I took the pill at the same time, so why did my spiritual root activate before Xiao Fei's?"
"I can't answer that question for you." The dean looked at Ye Fei's profile and shook his head. "It might be related to her individual constitution, or it might be for some other reason."
Huang Rongyu narrowed her eyes and suddenly recalled something: "Actually, when we participated in the Trial Month at the summit of Panlong, the wood-type spiritual energy released by Xiaofei was a bit strange."
Dean: "Strange? What's strange about it?"
"Xiao Fei's wood-type spiritual energy can be condensed into the shape of a flame."
"Flame shape?"
The dean frowned and turned his gaze to the Grand Elder, who said in a deep voice, "When she entered the school, I personally tested Ye Fei's spiritual attributes, and there is no doubt that her first spiritual root is the wood spiritual root."
The dean remained silent for a moment, then murmured, "Could it be... a mutated spiritual root?"
“Xiao Fei also mentioned that her spiritual root might be a mutated spiritual root,” Huang Rongyu said.
"In that case, wood-type spiritual energy might be able to condense into a flame shape, but..."
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Fei, who was sitting in the space, suddenly turned pale, and fine beads of sweat covered her smooth forehead. She looked somewhat pained.
Huang Rongyu was startled: "Xiao Fei?!"
Without saying a word, he strode over, but Li Yuan was faster. His figure flashed and appeared in front of the space almost instantly.
"What happened?" Upon seeing this, the dean quickly threw down the melon seeds in his hand and hurried over. When he saw a trace of blood oozing from the corner of the girl's lips, his eyes flickered slightly.
"Whoosh!"
A surge of wood-elemental spiritual energy burst forth from Ye Fei's body. Even with the spatial barrier, Li Yuan and Huang Rongyu, who were closest to her, could sense the danger emanating from that spiritual energy!
The surging spiritual energy threatened to engulf Ye Fei like a tidal wave. Seeing her face growing paler and paler, Li Yuan narrowed his phoenix eyes and reached out without hesitation to tear open the space.
The dean immediately rebuked, "Absolutely not!"
He rushed over and stopped Li Yuan, his face serious: "If you do this, she will fail to activate her spiritual root!"
"She's gone mad!" Li Yuan stared at the dean expressionlessly, his dark eyes filled with icy coldness: "If we don't stop her now, she'll die!"
...
Ye Fei vaguely saw some images.
Under the cover of night, in a dense forest, a woman in a green dress struggled to lift her pregnant belly as she crushed several medicinal herbs into a paste, which she then applied to the body of a man in black lying beside her.
Their faces were blurred, and Ye Fei couldn't recognize them.
After applying the medicinal mud, the woman took out a pill and put it into the man's mouth. Only after doing all this did the woman breathe a sigh of relief.
Gently stroking her belly, the woman seemed to have made up her mind. She took out a small knife and lightly sliced the man's finger—
