"Fortunately, I had the Enlightenment Tea Tree to suppress my fortune and destiny; otherwise, this vital energy might have already turned me into that ancestor's puppet," Lu Yu also heaved a quiet sigh of relief.
It wasn't until he returned to his Cave Heaven that he noticed the presence of this vital energy. Only then did he realize that the ancestor's intention was not really Xue Wuyi, but to draw him out and stealthily plant that seed.
"Perhaps even that Bodhisattva failed to perceive this seed. If it weren't for the Enlightenment Tea Tree's warning, I would have overlooked it too. These mighty ones are truly no small fries. However, he probably didn't foresee that I actually possess the Innate Spirit Root," Lu Yu calmed his spirit and began to review the incident, gradually getting a grip on its ins and outs.
