I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

Inside the room.

Utter silence.

The only sound came from the water trickling in the glass aquarium along the wall.

Through the glass walls, one could see aquatic plants, corals, and rocks, with colorful fish swimming among them.

As the ship entered a special sea area, the gray glass above the water surface quickly became moist, and the condensation gathered on two downward-pointing milky white stalactites.

Pearl-like droplets merged into streams, flowing down the white stalactites and creating tinkling ripples on the clear water surface.

This was a normal phenomenon in the Eternal Flow Sea, where many sea areas existed, and the spatial environment at the boundaries of these areas was always abnormal.

When ships crossed these regions, they would experience harsh environments such as high temperatures, low temperatures, and thunderstorms.

Nowadays, it was just the humidity that had greatly increased, extremely moist, which was considered a disaster with relatively small risk.

Xia Feng's brow was tightly knit, feeling the increase in humidity inside the cabinet as well; he looked at his palm and fingers, all covered in moisture.

Blinking, he placed his right hand in front of the lips and nose of the woman in the black dress, leaning in to whisper with a faint smile, "Miss Mu, what do you think this is?"

"..."

Mu Qingtong still kept her legs tightly together, sitting upright and stiff, glanced down at the man's hand approaching, her gaze indifferent, "What else could it be? This place is too humid, it's just condensed moisture mixed with your disgusting sweat, Mr. Xia."

"Oh, I see."

Xia Feng nodded thoughtfully, dropping his hand, "I thought....."

Mu Qingtong's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, standing erect without changing her expression, "Mr. Xia, that's enough, let it go!"

"Let it go?"

Xia Feng looked at her nearly cheek side, slightly tilting his head to meet her narrowly squinted eyes, he smiled faintly, "Miss Mu, when you played me twice using the Heavenly Destiny Stone, did you ever think of letting it go?"

"..."

"What goes around comes around; this year it's my turn."

Xia Feng would not pass up such an excellent opportunity to tease Mu Qingtong.

"However, I'm no devil, you know."

"If Miss Mu calls me 'master,' I'll naturally let you off the hook, how about that?"

The man's voice grew more triumphant and mocking as he whispered into her ear, Mu Qingtong's golden pupils trembled slightly, narrowing slowly, chewing her back teeth to maintain her indifferent expression.

"Mr. Xia, I've noted today's humiliation; you will regret and despair for this," she softly spoke, her voice still steady, without a trace of fluctuation.

Just as she was about to continue saying something, the entire ship suddenly trembled.

Both simultaneously looked up.

"Entering a high-risk environment, detection of torrential rain disaster, all crew please return to your cabins immediately and take precautions."

A mechanical female voice announced inside the room.

Entering a high-risk environment was visible to the naked eye; in the decorative aquarium of the bedroom, fish frantically leaped out of the water.

The speed at which moisture condensed on the downward-pointing stalactites also crazily accelerated, pattering like a downpour.

It was Xia Feng's first time seeing such a bizarre disaster scene; the humidity was so intense that it could condense into mist in the air, causing localized torrential rains.

"Thud, thud, thud, thud——" At the same time, rapid footsteps resounded from the ship's command center, collection cabin, storage cabin... and various corridors.

Clearly, this sudden disaster had disrupted their arrangements.

"I must say, this disaster is quite fierce."

Xia Feng remarked with a light chuckle, "What do you say, Miss Mu~"

Mu Qingtong clenched her fists, her delicate eyebrows tightly furrowed, she was truly, about to explode!

Agitated Spiritual Particles gathered in the palm of her hand.

"Don't use your Spiritual Pressure lightly, Jiang Qiue is very cautious and sensitive."

Gently pinching that sweaty and beautiful chin, Xia Feng pressed his face against her smooth cheek, his dark pupils watching the chaotically running crowd outside, "Miss Mu, you wouldn't want to be seen in your current state, would you?"

"..." Mu Qingtong took a deep breath, forced to give up her plan to beat someone up and then activated the power of the Heavenly Destiny Stone.

Unfortunately, even though Mr. Xia's voice was hoarse and his consciousness unclear, he still didn't let her go, swearing to drag her into an abyss named shame.

Mutual harm.

Mu Qingtong eventually had to give up struggling, but regardless, she simply refused to make a sound,

Her expression cool and indifferent, she raised her swan-like neck and frowned at the ceiling.

Her gaze penetrated layers of material; she could easily see the scene outside. Eternal Flow Sea had unleashed a towering tsunami. This ship, and even the few fleets closely following behind, were spinning and rolling in the spatial disaster, facing adversity.

It seemed indeed that the process of understanding one's kind, overcoming them, and controlling them would face many obstacles.

The current situation was undoubtedly the biggest obstacle of her life, even a monumental trial.

But it didn't matter, Mr. Xia, this fool, would never understand; he was just a stepping stone for her to ascend to the heavenly throne—

"Miss Mu, smell this, what is it?" Xia Feng once again raised his hand before her cold beautiful eyes, then covered her lips and nose.

"——"

"?!"

[Your provocative recklessness has completely infuriated the Destructive Witch, further stimulating her inspiration and thought, and also enhancing her understanding of her own desires. She is now starting to upgrade and construct the foundational rules of the Heavenly Destiny Stone with immense shame and terrible anger—]

[Mu Qingtong has come to a realization, understanding the interdependent relationships of suppression and release among all things, beginning to perfect the second core Rule Chain of the Heavenly Destiny Stone, you gain 50 points of spiritual power boost—]

[Second Rule:

1. Designate a target, the target will receive an ability of continuous endurance.

2. Designate a target, the target will receive a fragile negative curse.

3. Choose a target, the target will receive the opposite of (2), the target's 'companion sword' will be permanently suppressed, unable to unleash Sword Intent.

4. To be constructed....]

After receiving the information, Xia Feng: "?"

What the hell, why don't I understand some of it?

But soon, he personally felt the effect of the third designated power.

Then he was puzzled, his face becoming red, "Mu Qingtong, what have you done to me!"

With a faint hooking of her lips, Mu Qingtong found a slight edge which relaxed her mood a bit, giving her some leverage to negotiate with this idiot.

She had also realized now that, perhaps, making him want without receiving would be the most painful for Mr. Xia.

To suffocate this fool!

"Heh~" However, the next moment, she heard a scornful and annoying chuckle again next to her ear, "Just kidding, foolish Miss Mu, you didn't really think I was out of options, right~"

The effects of the excitement ring perfectly countered the third designated power; the Destructive Witch's calculations were wrong indeed.

Mu Qingtong's expression briefly froze.

"Miss Mu, your behavior has angered me again, so be prepared, I'm going to punish you even more excessively."

The slight smile Mu Qingtong had just hooked up froze, returning to cold and icy: "..."

"Click—"

At that moment, the bedroom door suddenly opened!

It was a woman in a blue dress.

Jiang Qiue closed the door behind her and slowly walked towards the wardrobe.

Both of their actions paused.
