I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

Chapter 637: 605. Miss Mu, you have really gone astray!

If he could, Dipus really wanted to explore the techniques possessed by those two mysterious masked individuals.

They were just True Martial Spirit Masters, yet they managed to solve Miguang’s mustard.

And it seemed quite effortless.

This piqued Dipus’s curiosity immensely.

Unfortunately, since these two mysterious individuals were exceptional, Gu Xun certainly wouldn’t let them go.

The secrets they held would likely be obtained by Gu Xun, further strengthening his power.

Dipus shook his head helplessly and no longer lingered, his figure scattering into a stream of golden light, swiftly racing away toward the distant bright moon.

“Buzz—”

But soon after he flew far, he felt something and looked back, his gaze turning to astonishment.

He saw the high doors of the Heavenly Lantern Pavilion open, two individuals in black robes with peach-faced masks emerged from the vortex, looked at him in the distance, then turned their heads and sped off in the opposite direction.

Dipus froze, how were they still alive?!

Where was Gu Xun?

Something wasn’t right… Dipus wondered, they came out, but that old man Gu Xun didn’t?

Could the old man have been killed in return? Killed by two True Martial Masters? Dipus’s mind raced with shock, but he quickly dismissed the thought.

A True Martial killing a Third Rank, especially one on the verge of becoming a Venerate Four, seemed impossible.

There must be another reason.

“Whoosh—”

At the same time, Tulun, who had initially left, noticed the anomaly at the Heavenly Lantern Pavilion, turned back, and chased after the peach-faced men with murderous intent.

But after chasing for a distance, thunder roared from the higher clouds, and a majestic fortress loomed in the distant sky.

From within the fortress, three beams of light as dazzling as stars converged, seemingly ready to descend ten thousand meters from the clouds to strike the fleeing targets on the ground.

Tulun and Dipus’s gazes slightly hardened, it appeared Lord Yeli Dong had noticed the anomaly here.

They watched the escaping peach-faced men from a distance, cursing inwardly, but they could do nothing but abandon the pursuit and flee separately.

Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong hid in the Holy Knight Space, speeding through towering buildings and quickly escaping the city’s boundaries.

They arrived above the Taichin Sea, adjacent to Litian City.

However, as Xia Feng continued to flee forward, preparing to find a safe place on another continental plate for advancement,

he suddenly stopped and looked up into the distant sky.

A pale blue barrier descended in the distance, like a majestic heavenly blade, cleaving the vast, boundless sea in half, forbidding passage to life.

“It seems that Litian City and its surrounding areas have been locked down.”

They had caused such a commotion in the Heavenly Lantern Pavilion, Lord Yeli Dong would definitely not let them go.

Of course, the most important thing was, now that he held the Sumeru King Order, Lord Yeli Dong, being keen on contesting the Sumeru Throne, was determined to get hold of it.

“Go to the seabed.”

“That’s right, the seabed is the safest now.”

Xia Feng nodded, and he and Mu Qingtong plunged into the sea together.

The sea current brushed against their faces as they embraced and continued to sink.

Xia Feng quietly watched the woman’s cold, delicate face before him and suddenly asked, “Miss Mu, the Spirit Paper that can solve the problem of the flickering of Sirius, can I take a look?”

It was clearly traded for the Sea of Memory.

He wanted to see how this woman would get out of her lie.

“Considering your request, Mu Qingtong thought briefly and quickly perfected a brand new Spiritual Particle Structure Diagram inspired by the Sky Wolf Holy Seat. She was brimming with inspiration and further optimized and connected these structures, creating an entirely new set of Spiritual Clothes which you understand as ‘Star Cluster’!”

“Grade B Spiritual Clothes·Star Cluster”

“Star Observation: You can see the appearance of your own star in the Star Realm.”

“Shadow of the Stars: You can project the shadow of your personal star anywhere in the Star Realm to create illusions.”

“Projection Limit: 10 stars”

Mu Qingtong gathered Spiritual Particles at her fingertips and swiftly sketched out the Spiritual Particle Structure Diagram, then looked calmly at the approaching Mr. Xia.

“Here, this is the Spiritual Clothes exchanged from the Heavenly Lantern Pavilion.”

Oh, Miss Mu, you’ve really learned to deceive!

Xia Feng blinked his eyes and frowned, “The Spiritual Particle structure you’ve constructed is too blurry. Where is the Spirit Paper? Just show me the Spirit Paper.”

While speaking, he began to fiddle with the black-dressed woman, trying to find the Spirit Paper.

“I’ve thrown it away.” Mu Qingtong forcefully slapped Xia Feng’s hand away, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, “I don’t keep Spirit Papers once I’ve learned them. You can take it or leave it.”

“Thrown away?” Xia Feng raised his eyebrows. He wanted to laugh, he really wanted to laugh.

Miss Mu, you are truly adorable in your attempts to hide the truth~ Xia Feng’s lips curled up, and he instinctively pinched the woman’s cheek.

“…..” Mu Qingtong furrowed her brows tighter, again slapping his hand away, her smile dangerously slight, “Mr. Xia, if you keep pinching, believe it or not, I’ll chop off your ‘piggish’ hands.”

“So, Miss Mu, you’re really ruthless.” Xia Feng sighed, quietly withdrawing his hand, and accepted the Star Cluster’s Spiritual Particle Structure Diagram.

“When it’s time to ascend, the brilliance of Sirius will likely be unprecedented. With our current strength, it’s impossible to hide that light.”

“That’s why I created this set of Spiritual Clothes called ‘Star Cluster,’ taking a different approach.”

Mu Qingtong explained in a subdued voice, “Since we can’t conceal the light, let’s make it shine even brighter, more abundantly, confusing the observers from the Star Phenomena Bureau unable to discern which is real and which is false.”

Having grasped the specific details and functions of the Spiritual Clothes and listened to Miss Mu’s explanation, Xia Feng couldn’t help but marvel at her genius.

In this way, when he and Miss Mu ascended, 22 Sirius stars would appear and illuminate the Star Realm.

Lighting up the entire realm!

If the Star Phenomena Bureau really could locate them by the position of Sirius, the time it would take to find the true two among the 22 would exponentially increase.

Enough to keep the Bureau busy.

As the two conversed, they dove thousands of meters into the sea, where the water pressure soared insanely, feeling as though they were shouldering the sky dome, with their bones continuously emitting unpleasant grinding noises.

Xia Feng released his Spiritual Pressure on the surface of his body to form a thin Spiritual Flow, keeping the natural forces at bay.

Finally, they reached the seabed.

The silent flow of water and the endless darkness fashioned a desolate world at the bottom of the sea.

All was silent.

In less than three days, the two returned to Feng Jianyi’s research lab.

When Xia Feng had come last time, he had already followed Feng Jianyi’s instructions to wreck the laboratory.

However, some basic facilities were still usable.

Without further delay, Xia Feng walked into the deeper Laboratory 2, turned back with a faint smile, and said, “Miss Mu, I hope you can keep up with my pace this time. Don’t fail in your elevation.”

Saying this, his coming glance was arrogant and disdainful; he then casually closed the door.

“…..” Mu Qingtong pursed her lips, rubbed her forehead, sighed, and really… really wanted to punch him!

After Xia Feng finished his provoking operations, he leaned back in a chair inside the room, utterly bored, staring intensely at the ceiling.

Miss Mu, I’m lying down now; you can start taking me flying!
