I'm a villain, not a devil

What Xiao Ci did made everyone froze in place.

She was covered in horrific scars, but she didn't show any pain, she just looked at Sean with serious and longing eyes.

It wasn't until Sean took the tree heart in his hand that Xiao Ci showed a small smile.

Then, her eyes slowly closed and she fell down.

Subconsciously dropping the tree heart he just took in his hand, Sean hugged Xiao Ci's thin body firmly.

Only then did he see that there was a huge wound on Xiao Ci's back. The white bones and flesh on the edge were clearly visible, and there was a group of black worms in the center that was devouring and biting something.

Sean's pupils shrank violently.

Black nematode... Xiao Ci really went to find the plague?

The soft moonlight covered it, and Bai Ye's face was solemn: "This is a fatal injury, and she can actually hold on until now... And, how did she get it?"

She couldn't understand that the strange tree man chasing the golden light was strange and powerful. Bai Ye doubted that even if she and Xiao En joined forces, they might not be able to suppress each other, let alone a king-level little girl like Xiao Ci.

How did this little girl do it?

Seeing Sean standing there, Bai Ye said anxiously: "Don't be stunned, Sean, your sister is in danger now. This is a temporary camp and there is no high-end medical equipment."

This was the first time she saw Sean acting so helpless, so she became more and more anxious.

Xiao En, who was holding Xiao Ci, slowly moved his fingers to cover Xiao Ci's wound.

There, the flesh and blood are rapidly reviving, and the biting black nematodes are dying one after another.

…

Imperial capital.

Seeing Xiao En coming out of the medical room, Bai Ye went up to him and said solemnly: "It was my mistake that caused Xiao Ci to be injured..."

Xiao En waved her hand to interrupt her: "I didn't expect Xiao Ci to ignore your moonlight and sneak away, it's not your fault."

Bai Ye's eyes were slightly strange. When did Sean become so easy to talk to?

However, he had already said so. It would be pointless for him to pursue him any more. He would just make it up to Xiao Ci more in the future.

Glancing at the door of the medical room, Bai Ye asked again: "How's it going?"

Sean shook his head: "It's not a big problem, it just looks scary. It seems to be a fatal injury at first glance, but in fact the props I left for her worked. Use nanomedicine to repair the wound, and then rest for a few days. ”

After hearing what he said, Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, Sean would leave things for people around him in case of accidents...

"Okay, it's useless for you to stand guard outside. It's time to go to the military headquarters to find someone to take credit." Sean smiled.

Bai Ye nodded and left here quickly.

After everyone in the yard was gone, Sean opened the door of the medical room again.

He didn't leave Xiao Ci any life-saving props at all... To be precise, Sean himself didn't have any. The life-saving moonlight he just got was given by Bai Ye...

Xiao Ci was indeed fatally injured, but...

On the operating table in the medical room, Xiao Ci, wearing loose surgical clothes, was sitting on the edge, with his two white and tender calves swaying in place.

Apart from looking a little tired, how could he look like he was seriously injured?

The largest wound on her back had only a few red marks left, which could not be seen without looking carefully, and the other smaller wounds were even harder to find.

In fact, after Sean brought her back, he did not perform any surgery at all, nor did he use nanopatch medicine.

I just helped her change her clothes and take a shower.

Xiao Ci somehow has a terrifyingly strong self-recovery ability.

Seeing Sean walk in, Xiao Ci jumped off the bed and jumped into his arms.

"Brother." She called out affectionately.

After rubbing the little orange cat Loli's head, Sean carried her to the side and sat down.

"Are you going after Wenxiu?" he asked.

Xiao Ci tilted his head: "Is that tree called Wenshu?"

"Um."

"Oh, then I'll just go after the plague."

Sean didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This girl didn't even know what the other person's name was.

But, how did Xiao Ci fight against Wenshu... Although she was very special, she was still young after all, and the power she absorbed was not enough. She was not at the same level as Wenshu.

If breaking away from the white leaves of the moonlight can be explained, then fighting against the almost crimson peak of plague saliva is a bit incomprehensible.

"How did you get this thing?" Sean took out the golden tree heart.

He could feel that this tree heart was more complete and powerful than the one he had absorbed.

Moreover, what puzzled him was that the tree heart he absorbed did not continue to escape because of the tree people's ritual, but the one Xiao Ci took back now seemed to be stable.

Xiao Ci blinked innocently: "I asked him for it, but he refused to give it, and then I beat him."

"……Then what?"

"He didn't hit me, so I took it."

Sean was speechless for a moment, never had a fight?

"Can't the saliva of plague defeat you?"

Xiao Ci nodded: "You can't beat me... I wouldn't have been bitten by him originally, but those black worms made him confused, so I was bitten several times."

Sean asked, "Why?"

Xiao Ci obviously didn't quite understand what he meant. Little Loli tilted her head: "Why?"

Sean didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I mean, how did you beat Plague? To be honest, I can't beat him."

"This..." Xiao Ci suddenly realized, and then said as a matter of course, "I don't know."

Sean: "..."

Perhaps because she felt that she didn't say it clearly, Xiao Ci added: "He is born to be unable to beat me."

"Born?" Sean caught the difference of this word.

Xiao Ci nodded, tilted her head as if to organize her words, and spoke after a moment: "I don't know why... Well, but I can feel that the golden light is very precious, and the tree must want it very much. But I don't want to give it to him, I want to give it to you, so he can only give it to me... Because he just can't beat me, I have this feeling."

Sean narrowed his eyes slightly. It sounded like the absolute suppression of the superior over the inferior without reason.

He had only seen relevant content in some materials, and it appeared in the crazy beast material.

The level of some Mad Beasts is much higher than others, and at this time, the lower Mad Beasts of the same type as these upper Mad Beasts will be completely suppressed by their innate bloodline, which has nothing to do with strength, but only with the level.

For example, the social Mad Beasts such as the bee colony and the queen bee are a similar example.

Sean suddenly remembered the book he got in the secret room of the earl's study.

It records the content related to black nematodes, but Sean and others can't understand the floating text on it. Only Xiao Ci can understand it, but at the key point, something in Xiao Ci's body reminds her that if she fully understands it, she will attract some terrible attention.

Sean didn't let Xiao Ci continue to understand the content inside, but he had already memorized the information he had seen before - it was a story about cutting down his mother tree, which seemed to be related to the predecessor of the empire.

Mother tree, cut down old people...

In addition, there is a translucent leaf in the book. If you overlap the leaf and the firelight to observe the person opposite, you will find all kinds of symbols on the forehead.

That symbol seems to represent the blood of this land from ancient times to the present.

The strange thing is that the symbol on Zhu Zhu's forehead is the ancient royal symbol, and Xiao Ci's symbol emits a dazzling light, which represents the purity of her blood.

However, this is not the case for the current royal family. The symbol on Bai Ye's forehead is similar to the national emblem of the empire today.

This can probably be understood as the royal blood of today is no longer the same as the original noble blood.

Considering that Xiao Ci can completely suppress the plague saliva as a superior, this seems to explain something...

Sean lowered his head and looked at Xiao Ci, who was playing with her fingers in his arms, with some strangeness.

This bomb sister he picked up for nothing seems to have a bigger origin than he imagined.

Don't forget that in addition to blood, Xiao Ci's body also fused a deep blue-level chip from the ancient shelter.

The energy of this chip has gradually merged with her own huge energy. With the use of multiple elements and unique purification ability, Xiao Ci will almost certainly become one of the strongest people in the world in the future.

However, she did not expect that she would give herself a surprise now.

"By the way, what about the plague saliva? When you took away the golden light, was the plague saliva killed by you?" Xiao En thought of a question and asked.

Xiao Ci blinked and stretched out her right hand: "Here."

"Here?"

The tendon at Xiao Ci's right wrist suddenly moved. She stretched out her left hand and pressed it lightly, and a tiny hole opened automatically.

A drop of blood and a black seed drilled out from it.

"Yes, that's it."

Xiao Ci jumped down from Xiao En's arms. She found a bag of nutritional supplements at random, threw the blood and seeds into it, and shook it.

The roots spread in the bag at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then quickly grew into a small sapling.

The sapling's head stuck out of the bag of supplements, and its limbs squeezed the bag hard, and jumped steadily to the ground.

After putting the nutritional supplement bag on his clothes, the miniature tree man stood on the ground.

However, looking at the mouth on its abdomen and the cell-like fruit hanging on the branches, it is exactly the same as the plague saliva.

Isn't this the plague saliva that has been reduced many times?

Sean, who was watching, was stunned.

Xiao Ci waved her hand like teasing a dog, and the little plague saliva immediately ran to her side and leaned on her ankle.

"Yes." Xiao Ci blinked.

Sean's eyes twitched, and he pointed at the sapling: "Is this... the big tree we saw in the black pigeon?"

Xiao Ci nodded: "He can't beat me, and I helped him cure his illness. He wanted to follow me. I thought about it, since I robbed him of something, let him follow - and then that's it."

"Ah?"

"Yeah."

So... hasty?

Sean suddenly noticed that the black nematodes that had been entangled in the roots and had been eating him in the giant form of the plague saliva had all disappeared.

He suddenly realized where the nematodes that had been gnawing at Xiao Ci came from...

Hiss...

The nematodes could even continuously eat away at the plague saliva, but it seemed to have only caused some physical damage to Xiao Ci...

In fact, when Xiao Ci recovered, the nematodes had all turned into mist and completely dissipated.

This proved that the thing had basically no killing power on Xiao Ci.

And the black nematodes are the disease of the plague saliva...

Sean looked down and saw that the plague saliva in the form of a sapling seemed to have little intelligence. Without the entanglement of those black nematodes, although it was still ugly, it was not annoying.

Moreover, he noticed that the air around the plague saliva seemed to be much fresher during the period from the time the plague saliva woke up to now.

Does this thing also have some purification effects?

Thinking about the connection, Sean thought about it and took out the large group of black nematodes that he had cut off.

Who knew that as soon as he took it out, the plague saliva in the form of a sapling suddenly shook, and a huge and terrifying breath emanated, and a strong sense of oppression directly stared at Sean.

This little thing still retains its strength? !

However, before Sean could react, Xiao Ci, who had been expressionless all the time, suddenly lowered his eyes, and a fierce look flashed by, and then kicked the plague saliva that was emitting a terrifying breath away.

"What is your attitude towards my brother?" She got angry all of a sudden.

What was even more surprising was that Plague Slaughter, who could oppress Sean with his aura alone, was like a pet that had done something wrong. He immediately gathered his breath and walked to Xiao Ci's side pitifully.

The powerful tree man who used to be at the peak of crimson was now like a puppy wearing a urea bag...

Xiao Ci looked up at Sean: "Brother, do you still want him? If not, I will just throw him away."

The branches of the little Plague Slaughter drooped down.

"There's no need to throw him away..." Sean looked at him in surprise, "Does he still have the strength he had before?"

"Not all of it, but it should be a little bit." Xiao Ci didn't seem to care about this.

Sean suddenly realized why Plague Slaughter and the prisoner suddenly stared at him when they were fighting wildly on the top platform.

At that time, he had just used the purification light ball given to him by Xiao Ci.

Was it that that attracted the attention of the two?

Sure enough, this is all related to Xiao Ci's bloodline...

Sean asked again: "Can he communicate now? Can we find out anything about the black pigeon?"

Xiao Ci turned to look at the flattering sapling, and raised his head after a moment: "He can communicate a little, but not much. He was in a semi-crazy state before and has no memory."

"Is that so..." Sean smacked his lips with some regret.

He picked up the black nematode ball in his hand, and the plague saliva became alert again.

"This thing, is it the prisoner he is guarding?"

"It should be, he is very hostile to this, and it is instinctive hostility."

"What about the golden light? Is it also instinctively attracted to him?"

"Well, and..." Xiao Ci thought for a while, "It seems that all trees will like this, and I don't know why, I think this thing will be very useful to my brother."
