Chapter 1085: Spirit Stone Absorption
Xia Xibei and Qiao Yanjue didn’t bother much with Liu Manhong and Lu Xiaohang’s affair, going about their business.
Xia Xibei’s expression was a bit serious looking at the spirit stones in her hand.
Although Lu Xiaohang said he would not pursue this matter, who could guarantee it?
The best way to hide the spirit stones was to use them up.
After using up the spirit stones, their own strength would improve, and the spirit stones would disappear. Then how could they find any evidence?
However, it would be difficult for Xia Xibei to use up these spirit stones in a short time by herself.
These were all good spirit stones!
“How is this going to be used?”
Qiao Yanjue was also holding a spirit stone in his hand, flipping it back and forth with a confused look.
This spirit stone looked like a crystal and was very beautiful.
If it was sold and made into jewelry, it could fetch a very good price.
Before, they went to Qiao Weiyue’s house and stole these spirit stones.
Qiao Yanjue knew that these spirit stones were good things, otherwise they wouldn’t have been hidden so well.
Qiao Yanjue held the spirit stone and stared at it, his eyes slowly emptying.
Unknowingly, the spirit stone in his hand began to heat up.
His heart jumped and immediately screamed, “Ah!”
He subconsciously flung his hand, wanting to shake the spirit stone off, but he was shocked to find that the spirit stone was stuck to his hand and couldn’t be shaken off!
“Beibei!” He shouted, his expression horrified.
What was this? How come it was suddenly so hot? Why couldn’t it be shaken off?
He could feel that the hand he grabbed the spirit stone with seemed to be burned by flames. Although it hadn’t burned to the bone, he could feel the heat that was going to destroy everything.
Xia Xibei turned to see this scene, also stunned.
Her expression changed dramatically and she immediately rushed to Qiao Yanjue’s side, trying to pull the spirit stone off.
However, to her shock, the spirit stone clung to Qiao Yanjue’s hand and could not be pulled off at all.
Moreover, the stone was glowing hot!
Xia Xibei’s face was grim and she made an immediate decision.
“Sit down!” She pressed Qiao Yanjue to the floor. “Sit still!”
Although his hands were hot, Qiao Yanjue did not feel the pain of his skin being burned and there was no smoke coming from his hand, so he followed Xia Xibei’s instructions and moved in spite of his pain.
Xia Xibei frowned, took Qiao Yanjue’s hand, and infused her spiritual power into it.
As soon as she entered, she could feel the fiery aura there, almost pus.h.i.+ng out her spiritual energy.
Her mind moved and she hurriedly stabilized it, “Follow my energy!”
Qiao Yanjue was also taken by surprise, but at this time, it was useless to panic.
He steadied his mind and tried to follow Xia Xibei’s spiritual power and started to circulate his energy.
He was shocked to find that the heat actually swam along the path of his breathing!
Within a short time, the heat spread to his whole body, and he felt his body begin to burn.
If he hadn’t stabilized his mind in time, he might have screamed.
He closed his eyes and felt the heat swarming inside his body.
This feeling of being able to “see” the energy moving in his body was so strange.
He didn’t know that Xia Xibei was even more shocked!
Just now, she only tried to move a little, but did not expect that Qiao Yanjue’s reaction to be more intense than she thought!
As she watched the spirit stone fade rapidly and the spirit energy being sucked into Qiao Yanjue’s body, she felt incredible shock.
This absorption speed was too exaggerated!
Even she wasn’t that fast!
