Sowing the seeds of doubt

The moment that they arrived, the first thing that they saw was the tree that was at the center of the clearing.

After staring at that tree for a bit, they immediately glared at each other.

It was almost instantly that they all separated from each other and formed four different groups.

These were the four different factions that made up this group.

None of them seemed like they were planning on heading to the tree that was in the center, but it was clear that all of them were paying attention to it. It was clear that their intentions were to take this Nine Lives Tree for themselves.

But when Lin Fan looked closely, he found that they weren't looking at the same parts of the Nine Lives Tree.

It seemed like they were all looking at different parts of the tree.

Some of them looked at the roots, some of them looked at the leaves, some of them looked at the branches, and some of them looked at the trunk.
