“In the past thousand years, I haven’t heard of anyone using Medicinal Fertilizers to forcefully raise bound black spirit plants. I even thought that these cruel methods had become extinct, I didn’t expect that I would see it here.”
Hexi wrinkled her eyebrows and just as she was about to speak, she heard a feeble voice behind her.
“Begging…… Begging you…… Kill me…… Begging you…… Kill me……”
Hexi suddenly turned her head and saw a young lady that hadn’t even reached twenty years old laying on the stone bed in the opposite room.
The girl was entirely naked***~ and her dried up and messy hair was scattered on the stone bed.
Blue-black mushroom plants grew all over her body, turning her originally bright and clean flesh into soil for these “mushrooms”, her body had been suffused with a rotten and stinky smell.
And these mushrooms had taken root deeply inside her body. Some were mixed alongside her internal organs and dantian, others were bound to her skeleton. Slowly, were consuming her life force.
Hexi extended her hand, wanting to probe this young woman in order to further investigate her circ.u.mstances, but the Little Golden Dragon blocked her.
“Laoda, don’t waste your strength. These people are no longer able to be saved.”
The Little Golden Dragon sighed and with a heavy voice, he said, “The seeds of these bound black spirit plants were all directly planted in this people. Afterward, with the help of these martial artists’ nourishment, they slowly began to germinate.”
“Once these plants sprout, their life breath and the spirit plants merge together, becoming one. Their heart and soul will all be replaced by the roots of these plants. This is also why they can still breath even though the spirit plants have blocked up their mouth and nose.”
“So, laoda, even if you destroyed these spirit plants, these people would be unable to continue living. And if you don’t eliminate these spirit plants, their life force will slowly be absorbed by these spirit plants until ultimately, they also die.”
Having talked up to here, the Little Golden Dragon’s face had a sympathetic expression on it. “These Medicinal Fertilizers are already equal to a dead person. How long will it take for them to lose their life force? The only question is merely a matter of time.”
“Furthermore, if they die because the bound black spirit plants absorbed all their life force, their mind will be entirely wiped out, so much so that they wouldn’t have a chance to reincarnate. Ai…… laoda, you killing them would be the best ending for them.”
After hearing the Little Golden Dragon’s words, Hexi sunk into silence.
And the young lady once again extended her hand towards Hexi, stammering, “Begging you…… Kill us……”
“Rather than…… live this way…… It would be better to let me die…… Release……”
The light in Hexi’s eyes slowly condensed and became calm. The purple vine in her hands slowly swayed around.
She turned to stare at this young lady in the eyes and solemnly nodded. “Okay, I’ll agree with your request.”
Just as she finished speaking, the purple vine suddenly sent out a light golden flame. When the vine extended forwards, the light golden flame touched the spirit plants on the young lady.
Those bound black spirit plants violently began to shake, seeming as if they were afraid and wanted to run away.
But, the light golden flame was incomparably strong. In practically the blink of an eye, it seemed to have swallowed the young lady and the blue-black plants inside itself.
The light golden flame enveloped the young lady’s body. Soon, it seemed that she would die a violent death. But the young lady’s face let out a gratified smile, with sparkling eyes, she looked towards Hexi and softly said, “Thank you!”
Moments later, the young lady on the stone bed had been burnt into bones and the bound black plants disappeared without a trace.
But Hexi didn’t stop moving.
The purple vine flew out of her body. Bringing the light golden flame, it scattered it around the entire bas.e.m.e.nt.
