Chapter 114: Miss Mu’s Private Secret Chamber
The silent hall was filled with the sound of black eyes and golden eyes meeting without a word. Mu Qingtong ignored Xia Feng’s taunting words and smiled faintly, “Follow me.”
Xia Feng followed the black-dressed woman into a highly futuristic hovercar. The hovercar shuttled through the towering buildings like a ghost, soon arriving at the bustling Prince Avenue. To Xia Feng’s surprise, the hovercar drove into a low-key, luxurious villa nestled among the trees. Seeing the twenty identical black Ghost hovercars filling the garage, Xia Feng’s eye twitched. How much did this witch like this car?
However, there might be another reason: Mu Qingtong’s cars often got wrecked. To make replacements convenient, she bought so many at once. “Stay close to me, don’t get lost.” After exiting the garage, Xia Feng closely followed the black-dressed woman. He keenly perceived that hidden among these seemingly normal garages, gardens, and swimming pools were various Spirit Science weapons only the military could equip, and traps were everywhere. Could this be her lair? Xia Feng couldn’t help but hesitate. Was it really safe to follow the World-Ending Witch in like this?
But he had already come this far! Xia Feng shook his head. What was there to fear from a little World-Ending Witch? After turning around several corners, the two arrived in front of a pitch-black door. Xia Feng stood outside, looking into the dark interior. The walls of this room seemed specially made, with several Boundless Stones embedded in them, forming a small barrier. After a moment of observation, he roughly estimated that this room was a safe house, completely sealed, not only soundproof but also capable of withstanding hundreds of attacks from B-grade Spirit Robes.
Xia Feng frowned, looking at the pitch-black portal before him, which resembled the gates of hell, and hesitated. Just then, the woman behind him leaned her red lips close to his ear, her soft voice laced with a teasing chuckle, “Mr. Xia, are you scared after all?” “Heh~” Xia Feng tilted his head, glancing at the woman’s cool and beautiful face nearby. “Miss Mu, I was just thinking, should I spank your left buttock later, or your right buttock?” He said with a slightly flippant, faint smile and walked directly into the room.
Still thinking of spanking me? The black-dressed woman smiled and followed him in slowly, then gently closed the door. The door lock clicked several times, followed by a long beep. The highly futuristic silver door emitted a mechanical female voice: “Entering safe house full-enclosure mode.” … … Xia Feng forcefully suppressed the urge to swallow, absolutely refusing to let that hateful woman see his cowardice! While thinking, he frowned and looked around. The completely sealed room had no ventilation system, the air was somewhat stuffy, and the surroundings were still pitch black. “Why isn’t the light on?” he asked in confusion.
“What’s wrong, Mr. Xia, are you afraid of the dark?” a woman’s voice, faintly imbued with laughter, came from the darkness. Xia Feng even detected a hint of excitement in it. His eyelids twitched. What did this witch plan to do? Was fighting worth getting so excited about?! “Tell me, how do we determine victory or defeat? We can’t kill each other, right?” Xia Feng said calmly. “It’s very simple. You just need to knock the other person unconscious or make them beg for mercy and admit defeat,” Mu Qingtong explained calmly. “Don’t worry, there are complete medical facilities here. As long as your heart doesn’t explode, even if your brain is chopped off, it can be completely healed.”
“Heh, that’s good. I was really afraid I might accidentally kill you,” Xia Feng mocked casually. … … ‘Really, so annoying!’ Mu Qingtong narrowed her beautiful eyes, no longer wasting any words. She said coldly, “The dice have fallen, the match begins!” As she spoke, she tossed the glowing dice in her hand into the air. Xia Feng’s expression turned serious, concentrating fully!
*Clack*—The light sound of the dice hitting the floor was exceptionally crisp in the sealed, dead silent space. Xia Feng’s pupils widened slightly. Just as he was about to move, his body suddenly stiffened on the spot. His ink-colored pupils instantly dispersed and then reformed into light gold symbols, slowly rotating clockwise within his eye sockets. “Such weak Mental Power, Mr. Xia, I’m very curious, where did you get your confidence from?” the black-dressed woman’s voice was soft, but a dismissive smile hung on her lips as she walked slowly towards the man frozen in place.
However, she had only taken two steps when her delicate eyebrows furrowed. *Buzz*—She sensed that a blood-red Symbol (Asterisk) on the back of Xia Feng’s hand suddenly lit up. A slender Mo Dao materialized out of thin air before Xia Feng, and pale red spirit waves spread out, forming a blood-red domain that covered the entire room. Mu Qingtong looked around in confusion, not finding anything unusual. Shaking her head, she dashed towards Xia Feng with a flash beneath her feet.
But as she flew into mid-air, her eyes widened abruptly, and her body instantly stiffened, falling directly to the ground. The nervous system in her body went haywire for some unknown reason, and the spinal nerve connection at the back of her neck suddenly became disordered, causing her to be paralyzed instantaneously. ! What was even more outrageous was that the normally stable and orderly Spirit Particle Structure inexplicably became congested and disorderly by sheer coincidence, causing her Spirit Pressure output to be directly interrupted! Luckily, the Spirit Pressure required for Spirit artifacts was negligible and unaffected.
Is this the Princess Consort’s ability? Interesting… Mu Qingtong raised her eyes with great interest, looking at Xia Feng, who was standing at attention in the darkness. She saw that Xia Feng, like her, had suddenly collapsed and was paralyzed on the ground, his body twitching from time to time, clearly indicating disorder in his nervous system as well. But what happened next made her delicate eyebrows tighten. Because the hovering Mo Dao slowly turned its blade and *swish*—it came straight for her!
“Fei.” As Mu Qingtong called out, a crimson pattern lit up between her eyebrows, and a small maid with rose-red hair appeared behind her. The maid’s small hands slipped under her arms, embracing her as she began to rapidly retreat in the air. The blood-red Mo Dao slashed through the darkness behind the two, drawing a blood-red line. Strangely, the maid seemed completely unaffected by the bad luck of the Gui Domain, moving with great agility and leading Mu Qingtong to easily dodge the Mo Dao’s assassination attempts time and time again.
The ability of the Gui Dao wasn’t speed or offense. Seeing that she couldn’t catch up, the Princess Consort changed the direction of the blade and attacked Xia Feng! “Fei, stop her.” “…Master, I can’t create an incarnation.” The maid said expressionlessly. The blade instantly pierced Xia Feng’s chest. Xia Feng twitched a few more times, and his life quickly faded.
Seeing this, the maid began to look around vigilantly. She knew her master’s kind was peculiar and possessed a Spirit artifact that could revive and become stronger after death. Xia Feng, finally breaking free from the restraint, did not immediately exit the invincible state of Nirvana. Instead, he began to observe the entire battle situation from a God’s-eye view. He recognized this red-haired maid. The third time he met Mu Qingtong in the car, this maid was the driver and seemed to possess lie-detection abilities.
He had thought that this Fei was Mu Qingtong’s trusted subordinate, but now it seemed she was likely a being similar to the Princess Consort. But then again, it made sense. Someone like Mu Qingtong, who loved solitude and viewed humans as ants with arrogance, how could she possibly keep a maid subordinate by her side every day, unless this maid was a part of her abilities. The invincible time for Nirvana was fifteen seconds. Xia Feng was not in a hurry, carefully observing the timing of the attack, patiently waiting for the maid to expose a flaw. Just then, he suddenly realized that this maid seemed to be a Spirit Body?
