I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

Gray Mist Forest.

A gargantuan creature, akin to a blue whale, propelled itself forward with its fins, piercing through layers of gray mist, creating expanding ripples of water-blue in its wake.

Within the body of the blue whale, there existed a crimson, void-like space.

In the space, beams of red light conglomerated into horizontal discs, resembling a formation of red chess pieces arrayed across the expanse.

Over a thousand Half-Dragon beings, covered in fierce scales, curled up on these chess-disc platforms, their eyes closed in deep slumber, densely packed.

Amidst this sleeping army of Half-Dragons, about a dozen figures sporadically stood on the chess discs.

They were almost entirely clad in crimson Legion Armor, their visages concealed behind ice-cold, dark red masks.

At that moment, a gray-brown shadow emerged from the disc, twisting rapidly into a solid form—a bizarre paper man.

It resembled a traditional shadow puppet, with red and black paper pieced together to form an ancient long robe and an official's cap, features crudely sketched onto the face.

Above the facial features, at the forehead, a drop of water shimmered with a brilliant golden light.

"The birth conditions for Origin Water require extremely chaotic, highly dangerous temporal-spatial turbulence. In recent years, Bailu Sea Domain has ceased to meet the high-risk criteria."

The paper man's outlined mouth seemed to move slightly, murmuring softly, "This is likely the last drop that can be condensed here."

Among the armored figures, someone stretched out a hand to catch the incoming Origin Water. He lifted his crimson mask to reveal a face with the demeanor of a refined young master, smiling gently.

This person was named Ye Li Beizhou, affiliated with the Holy Department of Zone 49.

He nodded, turning his head toward the center.

At the very center, an electrified cage floated, within which a red-haired woman was suspended.

"Sister-in-law," Ye Li Beizhou tossed the Origin Water into the cage, smiling, "Please take this back to the Legion."

"Sister-in-law?" The paper man peered curiously at the red-haired woman dressed in martial attire, "Is this lady perhaps Mr. Dongjun's wife? Did Lord Lidong get married?"

The gentle man smiled softly, "The Envoy might not know, but ten years ago, my brother married Princess Freya. Unfortunately, right after they got off the wedding carriage and before they could enter the wedding hall, Princess Freya ran away, and it has been ten years since."

Hearing this, the paper man chuckled lowly, "It seems Mr. Dongjun's marital relationship is not harmonious."

Ye Li Beizhou glanced coldly at the paper man but said nothing. He merely looked at Freya and smiled,

"Sister-in-law, you must be tired of teaching in Zone 51. Isn't it time you came home?"

"Heh~"

Freya's gaze was calm and cold as she scoffed, "Ye Li, are you imprisoning me?"

The wine-red haired woman's tone hinted at lethality, yet Ye Li Beizhou was unperturbed, still speaking gently, "Sister-in-law, don't misunderstand. Your brother merely wants to ensure your safe return home, since this place is far too dangerous, don't you think?"

Though it was a question, Ye Li Beizhou promptly activated the Teleportation Array under her feet, causing a surge of light.

"Sister-in-law, remember to keep the Origin Water safe, it's very important."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the martially dressed woman crushed two pieces of Fire Obsidian, and crimson Spiritual Light entered her chest. Simultaneously, her dark pupils began to narrow, tinging with a dangerous red hue, showing signs of transforming into vertical slits.

As her aura skyrocketed crazily, the Teleportation Array beneath her faltered and halted.

"Sister-in-law, why put yourself through this?"

Ye Li Beizhou's eyes slightly narrowed as he sighed, "Although you perfectly match with Dragon Blood, overstimulation still carries a risk of falling into a berserk state, even a life-threatening one."

The martially dressed woman's wine-red hair flew backward as her aura continued to climb. It wasn't Spiritual Pressure but rather a volatile aura known as Dragon Pressure that was rapidly increasing, breaking into Level 5 and showing a tendency to evolve even higher.

Suddenly—the overwhelming pressure terrifyingly spread, and her crimson pupils transformed completely into intimidating vertical slits! Freya looked indifferently, sweeping her gaze over everyone outside the cage.

The people outside, including Ye Li from Beizhou, consisted of three General Fifth Spirit Masters and ten Level 4 Season Envoys. Dispatching such a powerful lineup inside the forbidden zone clearly indicated they had an extremely important mission.

In addition to that, the silhouette's power was somewhat difficult to gauge.

However, she recognized the attire, it belonged to the servants of the Destruction Star God. Wherever the servants of Destruction appeared, the land was left barren, specializing in destruction.

It seemed that the purpose of these people was to destroy a specific place.

"Lady Envoy, please lend a hand."

Seeing that the Array was about to fail, Ye Li from Beizhou looked towards the silhouette.

The silhouette smiled faintly, nodding as a purple light shot from the center of their forehead and infused into the Array. The crumbling Teleportation Array stabilized once again, bursting with bright light.

Princess Freya's gaze darkened. In fact, being teleported away wouldn't put her in any danger, but having been away from home for ten years, she didn't want to deal with those annoying matters or see her nominal husband.

Moreover, her future direct disciple was still inside the forbidden zone; she had to find Xia Feng first!

As the thought arose, her vertical pupils indifferently lifted and she suddenly crushed another Fire Obsidian in her hand!

The expressions of the dozen people outside the cage changed slightly.

"Freya, have you lost your mind?!" Ye Li from Beizhou angrily rebuked.

"Boom!"

His words cut off abruptly as a red glow surged from the woman in the martial arts uniform, her wine-red hair flowing like a reversed waterfall, furiously swirling with the rising light, her aura surged wildly, and enchantingly strange dragon scales grew from her temples to her cheekbones, making her cold and beautiful face even more imposing.

Boom—

Boom————

Waves of blood-red ripples spread out, each wave larger than the last, the cage holding the red-haired woman began to crack, making crisp cracking sounds, while the Teleportation Array beneath her feet completely collapsed, disappearing without a trace.

"Damn it!"

Ye Li from Beizhou cursed under his breath and quickly turned to ask, "How much longer until we reach White Emperor City?"

"Ten minutes," a Season Envoy said gravely.

"Bang—"

A loud sound erupted and Ye Li from Beizhou quickly turned back, only to see Freya's eyes had turned blood-red at some point, with only the icy vertical pupils vaguely visible, filled with killing intent.

Ye Li from Beizhou knew she had completely lost her sanity!

Freya was a perfect match for Dragon Blood, but excessive Half-Dragon Transformation could also lead to loss of intellect and a berserk state of not recognizing anyone.

In this state, her eyes only saw slaughter, and only by killing enough lives would she gradually return to normal.

No other solution had been found yet.

Bang bang bang!!

The red-haired woman, her cold and beautiful face impassive, swung a large blade like a raging mother dinosaur, repeatedly smashing the Barrier.

The crowd quickly dispersed and infused Spiritual Particles into the Array, maintaining the operation of the Barrier while Ye Li from Beizhou sighed slightly with relief.

Only ten minutes left until White Emperor City, plenty of time.

"Good, let this madwoman kill those veterans."

Now that all gains from White Emperor City had been obtained, there was naturally no need to keep those foolish old soldiers.

It was perfect to let this deluded sister-in-law take action and kill, involving her in this matter as well!
