From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 294: Chapter 389: Bai Qi Under Surveillance_1

Under the bewildered gaze of everyone present, this little fellow, resembling a plush toy, zipped into the dense vegetation.

Little Qianye ran to the edge of the spreading plants without any attempt to dodge, allowing those deadly threats to touch its body, yet it moved through them with ease, showing no signs of being devoured.

The group of researchers watching this didn't seem too surprised because they all knew very well that Fang Ren's Spiritual Root could suppress Bai Qi's Spiritual Root. Since this little fellow was Fang Ren's Spirit Form, it naturally possessed the same suppressive power.

The endlessly spreading vines originated from Bai Qi's Spiritual Root, and could also be considered a form of her Spirit Form, just like Fang Ren's Spirit Form, which had two forms.

Bai Chaojin watched little Qianye running out, his expression still tense, then turned to glance at Fang Ren, "Your Pikachu... can it handle it?"

"If it can't, who can?" Fang Ren couldn't be bothered with the old man.

Now that the masks were off, he wasn't afraid of what would happen next. He would have to take things one step at a time and focus on protecting Princess Bai Xi and Tianjiang first.

Half a minute after little Qianye burrowed into the vines, suddenly, the growth rate of all the plants in the laboratory began to slow down. Seeing this, a huge sigh of relief was released by the scientists.

The entire laboratory was filled with the sound of breath being released.

Meanwhile, inside the laboratory, little Qianye stood beside Bai Qi's bed, staring dumbly at the green energy ball with its round arms slowly reaching into the light.

As little Qianye's round arms touched the green light ball, all the plants in the laboratory stopped growing and Fang Ren was the only one among the people on the outside who could see this scene.

"Was this the reason you transplanted my Spiritual Root back then?" Fang Ren glanced at Bai Chaojin.

Bai Chaojin, seeing that the vines in the lab were now completely under control, shifted his focus to Fang Ren.

"I had no choice at the time. If I didn't use your Spiritual Root, and still wanted to save the lives of most people in Tianjiang, then I would have had to kill Qi'er with my own hands," Bai Chaojin said.

Fang Ren nodded, after hearing this explanation and considering the current scene, he could somewhat understand why his Spiritual Root was transplanted back then, but he did not understand what Bai Chaojin did afterward, which was using his Spiritual Root and Bai Qi's abilities to conduct experiments on countless lives, aiming to make Bai Qi the most powerful Cultivator in human history.

This matter, he could not understand, nor would he try to!

Like the situation with Jiang Ling, the matter of Indra Sky, and the test subjects lying on each experimental bed in front of him... he would not try to comprehend them.

Fang Ren abruptly changed the subject, "If Old Master Bai cherished his granddaughter so much, why would he have the heart to use her for experiments now, almost killing her? Doesn't Old Master Bai find himself a bit too complicated?"

However, Fang Ren still took the phone; he now really wanted to know why Bai Xi had willingly subjected herself to this experiment.

Pressing the play button on the mobile video, the camera angle was high, and the people in view were not clear.

As the video started to play, Bai Qi, dressed in school uniform, was seen entering with a female scientific researcher. At first, she was surprised and puzzled by the scene in the laboratory. Bai Qi's voice could be heard in the video, though it was faint against the chatter of other researchers, and she had to listen carefully to hear what Bai Qi was saying.

Half a minute after Bai Qi's arrival, Bai Chaojin also appeared on the surveillance. Listening to his conversation with Bai Qi, it was Bai Chaojin trying to explain the origin of the laboratory, but he was interrupted by Bai Qi.

Bai Chaojin wasn't wrong; Bai Qi's expression was grim. There was one sentence of her dialogue with Bai Chaojin in the video, "I don't want to know what experiments you are doing, Grandfather. I came here today because the butler said that I could become countless times stronger within a few days."

"I want to be strong, no matter what it takes. As long as I can become the world's strongest Cultivator within these few days, I am willing to pay any price!"

"You don't need to ask why I'm doing this all of a sudden, Grandfather. I won't tell you. Just make me strong. The rest is my own business..."

"Like I said, I don't care how it's done. I'm not afraid of pain, I'm not afraid of death. As long as I can become stronger than anyone else in these few days..."

...

Bai Qi said a lot, her expression alternating between serious and dark, with a tone that was so resolute it seemed ten oxen couldn't pull her back.

In the video, Bai Chaojin tried several times to tell her about the matters of Indra Sky, but he was always cut off by Bai Qi's "I don't care." In the end, Bai Chaojin had no opportunity to inform her about the risks of the experiment or the brutal history of Indra Sky.

...

The scene shifted, the experiment was about to begin, Bai Qi entered an unconscious state. During the experiment, her complexion was poor, and it was apparent from her expression how much pain she was in when she wasn't feigning death.

"Fang Ren... I will definitely save you... No one can hurt you..."

In the video, this phrase was the one repeated the most by Bai Xi while she was unconscious.

Ultimately, because Bai Qi kept talking in her unconscious state, the experiment could not proceed, and the researchers had to resort to an injectable drug to induce a deathlike state in Bai Xi, which facilitated the progression of the experiment.

After watching the end of the video, Fang Ren was completely stunned.

Now, he understood why Bai Chaojin had tied two matters together, but he still didn't understand why Bai Qi, in such extreme pain while unconscious, kept calling out his name and saying words of protection for him.

The message conveyed through the entire video was that everything, Bai Qi's willingness to undergo the experiment, had been for his sake...
