Chapter 349.349 Truly worthy of being the World-Ending Witch~
Dim wardrobe.
Miss Mu had been severely dehydrated these past few days, her complexion alternating between flushed and pale. Now, she leaned in Mr. Xia’s arms, exhausted.
This past month had been hellish, destined to be buried deep in her memory, a shameful event she would never want to recall in the future.
However, it was alright. Shame was often an important foundation for the victor to ascend to the supreme. After all, without hardship and enemies, even if victorious, there wouldn’t be much joy, just a bland and uninteresting experience.
“Miss Mu, today’s punishment is almost over. What are your thoughts?” The man’s voice whispered into her ear.
She merely furrowed her delicate brows, not answering or acknowledging the guy.
“Drip, drip~”
The wall clock ticked by second by second, like water flowing silently, time slipping away. The air inside the wardrobe grew more sultry and clammy.
Seeing Mu Qingtong completely ignore him, Mr. Xia closed his eyes, his expression indifferent, showing no emotional fluctuations. He couldn’t help but admire her. Truly worthy of being the World-Ending Witch. After a month of diligent learning, Miss Mu had mastered and fully adapted to his teasing punishments, no longer revealing any emotional turmoil. Mr. Xia loved seeing Mu Qingtong’s emotions surface the most. Perhaps Miss Mu had discovered this malicious hobby of his, and thus, she wouldn’t fulfill his wishes. It seemed the Excitation Ring alone was no longer effective. To humiliate Miss Mu, make her cry, beg for mercy, he needed to find another method! Mr. Xia pondered his strategy.
“Boom!!!”
At this moment, with a loud explosion, the wardrobe began to shake violently. Or rather, the entire ship was trembling. Mr. Xia looked up. In the view of his Eye of Deconstruction, this sea area had fallen into a quagmire of war, with spacecraft and lasers flying everywhere. This ship was under fierce attack by the Golden Sparrow Flower.
At the same time, complex light patterns appeared on the bedroom walls, rapidly forming a cage that completely sealed the room.
“Miss Mu, it seems this method of hiding doesn’t work either.” Mr. Xia withdrew his hand and, with practiced movements, helped Mu Qingtong fasten her skirt. “Judging by the situation outside, we’ve been discovered.”
Her black dress returned to its elegant and dignified state. Mu Qingtong subconsciously pressed her long legs together beneath the skirt and whispered, shaking her head: “There’s no point in talking, Mr. Xia. Let’s think about how to escape.”
“Should we use your Crow Feather or my Fate Stone?” The Life Force Value stored in the Fate Stone hadn’t been used yet. Life Force Value could not only be used to wish for rare items like Manifestation Traces but also for God Relics, such as a relic called the [Singularity Stone]. The Singularity Stone was a one-time consumable item that could instantly teleport the two of them back to their spatial location a year ago. A year ago, both of them were in Area 51. Now they had painstakingly reached Area 41, and Mr. Xia was naturally unwilling to return. Moreover, using Life Force Value for this would be too wasteful.
“Let’s wait and see if there’s still a chance.” Mr. Xia said in a deep voice and looked up as if sensing something. A graceful female figure quietly appeared outside the door. It was a tall woman with pink wavy hair, her eyes accentuated with butterfly marks at the corners, and a lollipop in her mouth, her cheeks slightly puffed. She glanced around casually, then, in her high heels, walked straight through the door. As she entered, all the formations within the room began to rapidly disintegrate.
Mr. Xia’s brow furrowed: “She doesn’t seem to be from the Black Moon Holy See?”
Mu Qingtong quickly identified the other party’s identity: “She’s from the Burning Heaven Sacred Hall, a Walker under Venerable Gai Mie, Yellin, True Martial Second Realm.” The Burning Heaven Sacred Hall had four Venerable Seats. [Eastern Venerable], [Kui Gang Venerable], [Tuoba Venerable], [Gai Mie Venerable]. Che Tai Xian was a Walker under the Eastern Venerable, while Yellin belonged to Venerable Gai Mie.
“Da—da—” The slender high heels tapped the ground, the crisp sound particularly loud in the quiet bedroom, each step seemingly striking Mr. Xia’s heart. Mr. Xia’s black eyes narrowed. He saw the tall woman stop in front of the wardrobe, take out the lollipop from her red lips with a “pop~”, toss it into the air, and as it spun rapidly, it turned into stardust and disappeared. The woman’s beautiful eyes stared fixedly at the wardrobe, a faint smile playing on her lips as she said softly, “Holy Son Lord, do you require me to invite you out?”
“…” So she could actually see me. Unlike before when facing Jiang Qiue, Xia Feng clearly felt the gaze upon him this time. However, he didn’t immediately pull Mu Qingtong and escape. Instead, he pushed open the wardrobe door and walked out.
!
Yellin stared at Xia Feng’s white-bottomed K-Masked Man mask, her beautiful eyes narrowing: “So the Holy Son Lord looks like this. His appearance is indeed quite good.”
“…!” Xia Feng was impressed. It was one thing that this woman could see through his concealment, but she could even see through his mask? This was the first time the Bronze Mask had failed, being seen through completely. It was also the first time he had revealed his identity since disguising himself as the K-Masked Man. “Alright, you’ve been chasing me for so long, aren’t you tired?” Xia Feng tutted and walked forward slowly, “Let’s go.”
“Rumble!!”
“Thump thump thump thump—” Amidst the explosions, the ship swayed violently, and footsteps were rapidly approaching. At the same time, the Golden Sparrow Flower’s ship whizzed past the window, and the Wolf-tail Knight instantly appeared in the bedroom. The woman in the green dress flew in from outside, her gaze cold.
Yellin placed her hand on Xia Feng’s shoulder, glanced at the crowd with her beautiful eyes, and chuckled, “Everyone, you’re a step too late.” Before her words fell, she and the K-Masked Man had already disappeared.
Swish—
Without any hesitation, the three forces also disappeared rapidly, pursuing the Goddess Fleet that had already escaped to the outskirts of the battlefield. The bedroom returned to silence.
The wardrobe door creaked gently. The woman in the black dress stood in the center of the wardrobe, her beautiful eyes calm. According to her observation, Yellin’s mental power was extraordinarily high, at least at the Sage level! This woman seemed to have been able to see through Mr. Xia’s disguise by combining her high mental power with a specific Spirit Robe. In this regard, the Bronze Mask and the Bronze Concealment still had flaws, easily seen through by those with extremely high mental power. However, this was not a problem for her. The pink-haired woman’s mental power was like a kitten to a giant lion in front of her, incomparable. This was also why she hadn’t left with Xia Feng. Yellin hadn’t discovered her existence.
Nevertheless, she and Mr. Xia had not communicated telepathically just now to quickly discuss a plan. After all, the pink-haired woman’s methods were bizarre. Since she could see through Mr. Xia’s disguise, who knew if she would discover her existence through the faint spirit particle fluctuations formed by telepathic communication. Of course, although they hadn’t communicated, the moment Mr. Xia walked out of the wardrobe, she had already guessed his intentions. He was probably planning to enter the Goddess Fleet, infiltrate the enemy camp, and seize the Obsidian. This move was still a bit risky. However, since things had come to this, she could only meet each challenge as it came, find a way to help Mr. Xia snatch the Obsidian, and rescue him.
