Although this group of Nine-Leaf Sword Grass had no eyes, Wang Xian could still sense their blazing, eager "gazes." They were like a pack of wolves that had gone hungry for days spotting a delicious fat sheep, wishing they could immediately devour him alive.
The corner of Wang Xian's mouth twitched. Naturally, he knew that these Nine-Leaf Sword Grass did not truly want to eat him. They merely wanted to enter his Inner World and absorb the energy residue leaked from the Immortal Lotus's roots when it absorbed and expelled the energy of the heavens.
Actually, calling it energy residue was not quite right. That residue was no different from the energy itself. It was simply that the Immortal Lotus absorbed and expelled the energy of the heavens with such terrifying efficiency that it could not absorb it all, causing the unabsorbed energy to overflow from its roots and become what Wang Xian called energy residue.
But to the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass clan, the energy residue Wang Xian spoke of was a supreme treasure. That was why Little Grass had cried so sadly and despairingly after learning that the Inner World belonged to Wang Xian. What she feared was being driven away by him, because this energy residue was her hope, and also the hope of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass clan.
Surrounded by a large group of Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, Wang Xian arrived at the very core of the supreme forbidden land, the Grassland.
Along the way, at least another hundred Nine-Leaf Sword Grass had joined them. Yet there were not many Nine-Leaf Sword Grass in the core region of the Grassland.
According to Little Leaf, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass currently in the Grassland were all from the younger generation, while the older generation had already sealed themselves away.
