Humans have a saying that's quite accurate: when Heaven is angry, there will be rain; when humans are arrogant, there will be disaster. And when these spirit monsters act recklessly, they're not far from being obliterated!
Xia Mian gently toyed with the Hellfire dancing at her fingertips, her gaze landing on the little sapling continuously begging for mercy. "With your level of cultivation, you cannot develop spirituality even after decades of receiving incense from the Ji Family, let alone for another hundred years."
Xia Mian paused, her tone suddenly shifting, "Who assisted you?"
Although Xia Mian was quite accomplished in Xuanxue, she always believed that most abnormalities were human-made.
So, even if she discovered that this tree was abnormal, she wouldn't think that everything about the Ji Family was caused by this tree.
The Tree Demon hung its crown down like a child who had made a mistake, stammering, "It was a woman..."
Xia Mian squinted, "A woman? What woman?"
