Chapter 517: Can’t do anything?
Jiang Qiue was somewhat surprised, but on second thought, it made sense.
According to previous investigations, Saintess Cha Nai Xue and Xia Feng were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship gradually distanced and even became hostile due to some reasons.
But ultimately, it was just on the surface.
Now it seems that the relationship between Cha Nai Xue and Xia Feng might not be what outsiders see.
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Oberon the hiding place of the Q-Masked Man directly?” Jiang Qiue tilted her head in confusion.
“You should understand that if the Q-Masked Man can’t survive, then I can do anything,” Xia Feng stared quietly at the green-dressed woman and smiled. “There’s no deep enmity between us yet. But if you want to make an eternal enemy of Sirius, you can try.”
Not deep enmity? Jiang Qiue frowned, flames ignited in her heart. The humiliation you inflicted on me in Water Curtain Cave was a deep enmity!
Shaking off the distracting thoughts, she took a deep breath and said clearly, “It seems your feelings for the Q-Masked Man are indeed profound.”
“Fine, let’s go.”
Without further ado, Jiang Qiue grabbed Xia Feng’s small hand and directly used the Moon Saint Technique Domain’s Teleportation.
The two instantly appeared a hundred meters outside Cha Nai Xue’s castle.
Like a magnificent royal castle from a fairy tale standing under the falling snow, white towers stretched out, emitting a soft glow under the moonlight at the horizon.
As Jiang Qiue and Xia Feng appeared, the castle’s grand double doors were blown open by a gust of wind, silently and automatically.
Jiang Qiue narrowed her beautiful eyes, not entering directly. She knew that Cha Nai Xue’s castle was actually a very powerful God Relic, activated by mental power, with integrated offense and defense. The more mental power inputted, the stronger it became.
However, to activate this castle, the initial mental power level required was Venerable-level.
Cha Nai Xue’s mental power could not possibly maintain the operation of such a vast castle.
But this castle could be maintained by the mental power quota of the Moon Saint Technique Domain.
The Moon Saint Technique Domain had many uses, with teleportation being one of its main functions. Additionally, it could provide mental power and amount of spirit particles to authorized individuals within the domain.
The Cardinal and the three Saintesses all had the authority to allocate Venerable-level mental power and spirit particles.
For benefits like allocating mental power, Olivia and Jiang Qiue usually didn’t need it. Cha Nai Xue, after moving into Area 20, used it frequently, making her the biggest beneficiary of the Moon Saint Technique Domain.
Precisely because of this, directly entering the castle was undoubtedly a dangerous act.
Jiang Qiue took a step back, leaving behind a green afterimage that gradually condensed into a second green-dressed woman.
“My incarnation will accompany you inside.”
The two Jiang Qiues looked at each other. The avatar Jiang Qiue took Xia Feng’s hand and flashed into the tall gate.
“I’ll wait for you here,” the original body’s faint mental voice echoed in Xia Feng’s heart.
Xia Feng looked back. The green-dressed woman’s gaze was indifferent, still standing a full hundred meters outside the gate.
‘Damn, so cautious,’ Xia Feng thought helplessly, but he didn’t say anything to persuade her.
“Boom—” The large door suddenly closed.
“Come here,” at the same time, a gentle female voice came from above.
Xia Feng recognized it as Cha Nai Xue’s affected voice.
He and Jiang Qiue walked through flower beds, halls, passed through a second luxurious tall gate, and ascended a spiral staircase. The green-dressed woman’s steps were unhurried. She had somehow changed into crystal high heels that highlighted her slender legs.
The crisp ‘click-clack’ echoed in the empty castle, making Xia Feng a little irritated. Couldn’t this woman walk any faster!
But luckily, the two finally reached the second floor, pushed the door open, and entered. The dimly lit living room had only a few night lamps with flickering flames.
By the window, on a low-profile, luxurious, dark black sofa, sat a black and white nun.
Her legs were crossed under her nun’s robe, and a thick book lay on her lap. The black book cover vaguely revealed ancient golden patterns carved in the center: Dragon Language.
Her white hood cast a shadow over her face, making it impossible to see her features clearly. However, from the movement of her slender fingers turning the pages, it seemed she hadn’t noticed the two people who had appeared at the door.
Behind the nun, a woman in a snow dress wearing a beret stood respectfully with her hands behind her back.
Jiang Qiue’s beautiful eyes swept over Cha Nai Xue’s obedient expression, and she was surprised. Judging by her demeanor, had Cha Nai Xue already been subdued by the Q-Masked Man?
She had thought that Cha Nai Xue, out of consideration for Xia Feng, would at most be in a cooperative relationship with the Q-Masked Man, but now it seemed she had underestimated the Q-Masked Man.
However, Jiang Qiue was not concerned with Cha Nai Xue’s situation or whether she had rebelled. As long as it did not interfere with her plans and interests, she would not pay much attention.
While contemplating, Jiang Qiue rubbed the black hair of the boy beside her and said lightly, “Go ahead, you have ten minutes. I’ll wait for you outside.”
With that, she turned and left without looking at the nun again.
“Did I allow you to leave?” Just then, a cold, soft voice sounded. The nun on the sofa lifted her delicate jaw, and her fingertip, adorned with a light red lipstick, tapped the book.
!
“Click— click—”pausing, Jiang Qiue turned her head, uttering a soft ‘Hm?’ as if a little confused.
“…” Beside her, Xia Feng hadn’t dared to move the slightest bit.
Because from the moment Jiang Qiue had stroked his black hair, he had felt the atmosphere instantly turn terrifying. The temperature in the dim living room seemed to have dropped several degrees, chilling to the bone.
Without a doubt, Miss Mu seemed a little angry.
The foolish fox is doomed!
Xia Feng felt a sense of schadenfreude in his heart. Jiang Qiue, Jiang Qiue, you angered me, and on top of that, you dared to provoke the World-Ending Witch. Even if you were a Nine-Tails Star God in your true form, you wouldn’t be saved!
“Was the curse on him cast by you?” Mu Qingtong closed the thick book on her lap, her cool voice devoid of emotion.
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Qiue’s ethereal beautiful eyes. She hadn’t expected this Q-Masked Man to see Xia Feng’s condition so easily.
“Yes, Xia Feng is now my puppet servant. Is there a problem?”
Jiang Qiue said lightly, then glanced at Xia Feng, “I don’t want to waste words. You can discuss our deal with her yourself. You now have 9 minutes and 50 seconds to catch up.”
With that, she lost interest in talking further and walked straight towards the door.
“Jiang Qiue.”
Just then, Cha Nai Xue’s gentle and sweet voice suddenly rang out, “I suggest you’d better not take another step forward, or you will die.”
Jiang Qiue had naturally noticed it too. Just one threshold apart, complex spirit particle structures formed a formation outside the door, emitting a terrifying aura.
The green-dressed woman’s expression was calm as she turned, “You should be able to see that my main body has not entered the castle. Cha Nai Xue, it’s useless for you to activate the great formation to imprison my incarnation.”
Jiang Qiue noticed that Xia Feng remained silent, and she understood that this scoundrel’s proposed cooperation was just another deception. However, she didn’t care.
Her main body was safe anyway. These two women and one man couldn’t do anything to her at all!
“So I suggest you two had better not provoke me, otherwise, I don’t mind luring Oberon here, and we’ll go down in flames together.”
Hearing her threat, Cha Nai Xue’s lips curved slightly, and she shook her head, “Jiang Qiue, it seems you haven’t realized yet. Your main body entered the castle long ago.”
“?” Jiang Qiue was stunned.
