Chapter 1348: What Did You See
Seeing him staying, Hexi’s heart moved slightly. She already guessed what he was going to say.
Jin Zeyu said, “Xi Yue, there is something I want to tell you alone.”
Hexi raised his eyebrows and said, “Is it about the reason you were injured that year?”
Jin Zeyu nodded, then he looked at Nangong Yu who was sitting next to Xi Yue.
Seeing this, his heart couldn’t help beating violently.
They had been in this room for a long time, and this man was standing beside Xi Yue.
But none of them noticed his existence.
Even up to this moment, he wanted to tell Xi Yue the secret alone, but the moment before he spoke, he almost ignored that there was this strange man by her side.
Seeing Jin Zeyu looking at Nangong Yu, Hexi understood. She said calmly, “It’s fine. He is my people, so just say what you have to say.”
Nangong Yu, who was labeled as “her own people”, felt very delighted. He grabbed Hexi’s little hand and squeezed it gently.
Seeing that Xi Yue said so, Jin Zeyu no longer hesitated. Finally, he revealed the secret that had been hidden in his heart for several years.
A few years ago, Jin Zeyu just became the president of the Academy Student Council.
He had outstanding talent at a young age, and he had been favored by many elders and deans. He always wanted to make the academy better. He even kept fantasizing about the days when he was chosen to enter the Siam Continent.
When Jin Zeyu talked about this past, his expression was very calm as if he was telling someone else’s story, “Because I was the president of the Academy Student Council, I was able to freely enter and leave most places in the academy, including many forbidden places today.”
“One night, when I was cultivating on the back mountain, I saw a lot of strange men in black entering the direction of the current Bijing Pavilion. At that time, I was very curious and young, so I followed behind them.”
When Jin Zeyu said this, he showed obvious fear and horror on his face.
Hexi asked, “What did you see?”
“I saw a person, a person who should not have appeared in Miracle Healer Academy.” Jin Zeyu’s voice was hoa.r.s.e, trying to suppress the trembling, “That was a candidate who took the academy a.s.sessment in the same year as me, but, in the first round After the spiritual root test, he disappeared. And all of us thought he was too sad to be eliminated, so he went home.”
Hexi’s breathing was stagnant, and her eyes widened slightly. Jin Zeyu’s words made her think of something.
Jin Zeyu continued, “Besides the examinee I knew, there was also a beastkin who was unconscious beside him. I saw an old man with a white beard put them on an altar and kept channeling the array.”
“Then the examinee and the beastkin showed painful expressions. Finally a light green crystal stone condensed from the beastkin’s body.”
Hexi and Nangong Yu looked at each other, and they each saw the surprise in each other’s eyes.
It turns out that the extraction of Wood Vitality Pearl started so many years ago, so how many beastkins did they kill in order to extract Wood Vitality Pearl? How many spiritual root martial artists were captured?
Jin Zeyu took a deep breath, clasped his hands tightly on the chair, and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Seeing beastkin roaring in pain and the candidate who was at the same age as me was also half dead, I felt uneasy and wanted to escape. Who knows, I saw a person at that moment.”
Without waiting for Hexi to ask, Jin Zeyu continued, “It’s the president of the Doctors a.s.sociation——Lu Xuyang.”
