Countless green liquid poured down like a torrential rain, wreaking havoc in the room. Luo Shen stood nearby, gripping two members of the clan’s guard who were no longer struggling.
At this moment, he looked very strange, drenched in the green liquid, his entire body glistening green, but his eyes had turned a bloody red. The slightly viscous liquid could not mask his menacing grin, nor could it hide the stiffness of Luo She’s expression.
"You... have you only just entered the realm of a great master a few months ago?"
His voice was a bit hoarse as he looked at Ye Zhongming, who had completely merged into the black mist, incredulously asking.
The black mist seemed like an endless abyss, mercilessly swallowing the green rainwater.
At that moment, Luo She even felt that Ye Zhongming was one of his kind.
"If you tell me what those things in the hearts are, I can answer your question about my strength increase," Ye Zhongming said, still concealed in the black mist without transforming.
He was unsure whether Luo She’s true strength was as he currently displayed. If it were, then he posed no threat to Ye Zhongming. He estimated that this person’s fuleira was at most around 120,000.
Even the Ye Zhongming before his significant power boost could deal with him.
What Ye Zhongming wanted to know now was what the green liquid Luo She was using was, what the things in the hearts of those great masters, hastily matured by the green liquid, were, and he could never believe that Luo She had returned to the Star-Eye Clan without any ulterior motives.
Luo She told the two clan leaders that they needed to make some changes, but Ye Zhongming did not believe it. If Ye Zhongming were not present, maybe it could be justified, but now that he was here, the Star-Eye Clan had already passed its most difficult time and was improving in all aspects.
If Luo She truly cared for the Star-Eye Clan, his first choice should be to cooperate with Ye Zhongming, not to use his high standing and the two clan leaders’ mentorship to force them to distance themselves from Ye Zhongming and create a rift.
No normal person would act this way unless he had immense confidence in doing better than Ye Zhongming. However, with this method of hastening great masters, could he truly save the Star-Eye Clan or allow it to continue advancing without Ye Zhongming?
That would be far too naive. Not to mention that these hastily produced great masters were of little use, even if they were useful, it required over 90,000 fuleira as seeds.
The entire Star-Eye Clan had already put more than 90,000 into the pool, but the result was only a few produced. What would happen in the future?
Right now, those in the pool had fuleira above 85,000, or even just over 80,000, yet the outcome was clear: some could not withstand it and died. The ones who survived only lived for today; who knew what would happen in the future?
Thus, Luo She thought he could lead the Star-Eye Clan to move forward after eliminating Ye Zhongming? He probably didn’t believe that himself.
So the conclusion was clear: Luo She’s return was definitely not pure.
And Ye Zhongming’s existence was an obstacle for him.
"You don’t deserve it!" Luo She threw away the two corpses he had drained, and in the instant they left his hands, he extracted their hearts and squeezed hard, producing two green objects that he directly swallowed.
Instantly, Luo Shen’s aura surged upward. Although the rain in the room had become sparse due to absorption, its power had increased significantly.
Luo She casually absorbed the remaining two people, his expression becoming less grim and more confident than before.
Perhaps the boost in power gave him the confidence to defeat Ye Zhongming.
"The green liquid can quickly nurture fuleira... The things in the hearts can be absorbed by life to enhance strength. Is this the reason you returned to the Star-Eye Clan? To further your own strength?"
Ye Zhongming stated this, as if summarizing it himself, and then immediately added: "No, according to previous intelligence, your strength should be higher than now. Does this mean that the green things you consumed can only temporarily enhance your strength?"
