I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

After ransacking the military area, Xia Feng soon returned to the core area, sharing the loot with Miss Mu.

Of course, it was called sharing, but he actually gave most of the spiritual materials to Miss Mu, including items such as Spirit Storage Fruit and Spirit-injecting Fruit, among which were various extremely rare Level 6 Wood Element spiritual materials, significantly reducing the difficulty for Mu Qingtong to collect spiritual materials.

Thus, under Xia Feng's secretive manipulation, the foolish Witch still thought it was an even split, without any suspicion.

Not long after, the energy of the Angel Cage completely depleted and dissipated, finally transforming into a golden wooden branch engraved with wings that fell to the ground — this was the original form of the Angel Cage.

This Divine Relic was quite useful, a very good defensive measure.

Xia Feng picked it up and tossed it into the Nash Space, then crouched down to dig through the soil beneath him. Specks of star-like fragments in the soil's moisture dazzled brilliantly, like bits of gold.

With a casual gesture, this gold-like Origin Water broke through the soil, ascended, and 66 drops converged into a large golden drop that oscillated in the palm of Xia Feng's hand.

He sensed a rich aura of Origin Divine Objects.

Afterward, he looked toward the Origin Flower. What was called a flower was actually just its rotting roots and wilted branches left.

According to the information known, the Origin Flower could produce Origin Eggs. However, looking at its condition, the aura of the Origin Divine Objects was nearly non-existent, like a dying old man, about to breathe his last.

After a moment's thought, Xia Feng decided to put the Origin Water back into the soil layer. Then, using the Gui Blade, he cut out the entire soil layer, taking the Origin Flower with him into the Nash Space.

It had to be said, this daring raid on East Victory Fortress was quite a rich haul.

Not only did he avenge a small grudge for the soldiers of White Emperor City by taking down Yeli Helian, but he also obtained a large amount of Origin Water, a withered Origin Flower, and two Divine Relics: the Blood Beast's Shadow and the Angel Cage.

Moreover, he newly contracted 1502 Half-Dragons and acquired over five hundred Spiritual Artifacts.

However, since the Mind Domain could only maintain for 24 hours, he did not plan to immediately break these Spiritual Artifacts down into Blessing Points.

In contemplation, Xia Feng woke Dao Kui, seriously wounded him, and threw him into a corner of the military area. After he woke Ms. Fu, he bestowed upon her a Pale Seal without thought control, which Ms. Fu did not refuse.

After all, there were techniques in this world for probing memories, and the Pale Seal could absolutely prevent this, making it impossible for anyone to probe the soul of a servant of the Dragon God.

"Where are you planning to go next? Can't teacher follow you?" Freya actually quite wanted to keep running around with Xia Feng, it must be interesting...

"No," Xia Feng shook his head, decisively refusing.

Freya pursed her lips, shook her head and sighed, "Students grow up, don't they?"

Xia Feng: "..."

"Teacher, actually I have something even more important for which I need your help!"

Xia Feng placed his hands on Freya's shoulders, his expression serious, "The Pale Seal on you also grants the right to confer seals to Half-Dragons, so I need you to gather what remains of Lord Yeli Dong's Half-Dragon Corps, can you do that?"

Looking into her student's eyes filled with sincerity and anticipation, Freya felt this student of hers was growing more and more handsome...

"The Half-Dragon Corps, is it very important to you?"

"Very important."

"Okay, then leave it to teacher." Freya patted Xia Feng's shoulder, staring at her student's increasingly sharp face. Her beautiful eyes blinked softly, then suddenly she pulled him in.

Caught off guard, Xia Feng found himself embraced within Freya's bosom. Amidst the soft, dark warmth filled with question marks, he felt Ms. Fu's fingers run through his hair and heard her lightly laugh, her voice faint, "We'll meet again."

"After Freya finished speaking, she let go of him, waved her hand decisively, and turned to leave."

"The burgundy long hair flowed in the wind, while the martial arts-dressed woman, with her hand on the hilt at her waist, gradually walked away."

"Mr. Xia, you were taken advantage of," Mu Qingtong's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her gaze coldly following the gradually disappearing silhouette of the martial arts-dressed woman."

Xia Feng rubbed his face, still somewhat muddled, tilting his head in confusion, "Ah? Did you say that backwards?"

"At 32, Freya has yet to experience the union of yin and yang, probably longing for it," Mu Qingtong spoke indifferently with frankness."

She glanced at Xia Feng again, "She likes you."

"....Miss Mu, I think you are overthinking it," Xia Feng raised his eyebrows, stroking his chin, "Ms. Fu has always been such a straightforward person."

"Heh," Mu Qingtong spoke lightly, "If she didn't like you, why would she go so far as to help you? Contracting all the Half-Dragon people is no easy task."

"Miss Mu, what are you talking about? Ms. Fu understands the gravity of the situation, knowing I aim to save the people from dire straits, thereby selflessly dedicating her time and energy to help me build the corps. How can you turn such a righteous deed into mere worldly love in your mouth?" Xia Feng pointed at the woman in the black dress, chin lifted, righteously indignant, "Miss Mu, you truly disappoint me!"

Mu Qingtong: "..."

"It seems Mr. Xia's ability for sophistry has improved even further."

"Who's being sophistical--" Halfway through speaking, Xia Feng paused, as if something dawned on him, his lips curving into a teasing, light smile,

"According to your logic, Miss Mu, Ms. Fu's selfless help implies that she likes me. Then, Miss Mu, you've helped me so many times without asking for anything in return, how deeply must you like me, hmm?"

"..." Mu Qingtong lightly arched her delicate eyebrows.

Xia Feng patted her delicate shoulder, gazing at her stunningly cold and beautiful face, his lips twisted in a mocking smile that grew more proud by the word, "Admit it! Miss Mu, you have fallen for me helplessly!"

"!" Mu Qingtong swatted his hand away, coldly stating, "Ridiculous."

"Instead of catching the loopholes in my language here, Mr. Xia would do better to think about how to leave this contentious place."

Watching the woman in the black dress leave, Xia Feng followed thoughtfully; it seemed that the approach to his grand love campaign for Miss Mu needed a change; ordinary methods simply wouldn't compel Miss Mu to express her feelings of affection.

Before leaving, Xia Feng utilized the Blood Beast's Shadow to scour the core area once more, finally accomplishing a great achievement.

However, some surprises always come unexpectedly.

No sooner had the two stepped into the military area than an anomaly occurred!

"Boom—"

A bell chimed, its sound vast as if coming from antiquity, solemn with a desolate echo.

Xia Feng and his companion looked up cautiously.

Beneath the bright hanging moon, a holy sword emitting a silvery light quietly appeared, humming—its light cleansing all around! In the higher heavens, four stars suddenly burst into dazzling golden light.

"Boom!!!" Like celestial soldiers descending, four golden columns connected heaven and earth, illuminating the dark night sky,

Countless streams of light instantly interlinked to form a complex, gigantic array, enclosing the entire core area and half of the military area like a cage.

Four sacred golden columns supported heaven and earth, with four figures gradually emerging from within.

Each one appeared divine, radiating a terrifying aura.
