Xia Hua hurriedly interrupted the string of remarks Song Wu was about to make, fearing she might say something shockingly erroneous. "It was not his own doing," Xia Hua said. "His divine consciousness was already in a muddled state. We were recovering in the same place, but a month ago, someone brought in a group of half-broken, resentful ghosts. While I was in a deep slumber, they tricked him into devouring two of them. Influenced by the baleful energy, he lost the last of his sanity. Then, one mistake led to another; he consumed several remnants of various gods, and that is how he ended up like this."
Jiang Qingyu asked suspiciously, "You were in a deep slumber? Then how do you know all this?"
Far from being offended by Jiang Qingyu’s interrogation, Xia Hua felt that her vigilance was a good thing. She replied, "Even without my divine godhood, my abilities remain. Where we were recovering, there was no shortage of flowers, trees, and plants. By conversing with the living things there, I learned the sequence of events."
