I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

He who understands the times is a great man.

If one could escape with their life, what would be the harm in making some compromises?

Xia Feng revealed an innocent and simple smile, continuing, "So Sister Yi, you mean there is a way you can help me?"

"Of course."

The Golden-skirted Goddess's lips curled slightly:

"Little brother, as long as you open your consciousness and let me imprint the Eternal Day Divine Seal at the depths of your soul, sister will naturally have a way to help you resolve the current crisis."

"...."

"I bid you farewell!"

Eternal Day Divine Seal? Upon hearing this, Xia Feng immediately abandoned the idea of asking Gong Changyi for help.

Through the memories that had come back to him, he knew very well that the Eternal Day Divine Seal was a contract with slave-like qualities, and once accepted, it would be the end of him, no different from a disgraceful treaty that ceded rights and shamed one's nation.

"Mr. Xia, do you have a plan for handling this situation?" Mu Qingtong's puzzled voice rang out again.

"Allow me to think it over..." Xia Feng felt that there was still a chance to save himself, and there was no need to sell himself to Gong Changyi just yet.

Of course, perhaps he could repeat the old trick, allow the Eternal Day Divine Seal to be imprinted, and then figure out a way to enter the Evil Dragon Space once more, letting Evil Dragon Miss help him again to eliminate the Eternal Day Divine Seal.

But what he worried about was whether the Eternal Day Divine Seal, far more formidable than the previous locator mark, could be removed by Evil Dragon Miss.

If it couldn't be removed, then he would be done for.

In his contemplation, he saw Mu Qingtong outfitting herself in a black robe and a red Q mask.

Seeing this, he also donned a K mask to disguise his identity, and the two of them stepped out of the room, appearing above the arena.

Mu Ze's clone had already closed his eyes and collapsed onto the sofa, feigning unconsciousness.

Hum—

At the same time, the faint halo that pervaded the entire arena began to contract, signifying the retreat of the Nightmare Domain.

However, as the Heavenly Destiny Stone on Mu Qingtong's forehead flickered, the contraction of the Nightmare Domain stopped suddenly around a hundred meters from the two of them, forming a small Nightmare Domain.

"I can extend this domain for a bit longer."

Mu Qingtong's voice sounded in Xia Feng's heart with Mind Transmission, "But at most, it can only last for two more minutes; during this time, enemies cannot invade nor can their attacks penetrate the domain, but afterward, we'll have to face the enemies head-on."

Originally, in the Nightmare Domain, all life forms would be forced to enter the Memory World, but Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong had now shattered their own Memory Worlds, effectively granting themselves an immunity buff and avoiding being pulled in again.

But anyone coming in from the outside would still be pulled into the Memory World, falling into unconsciousness.

"Is it possible to extend the duration of the Nightmare Domain?"

Just at that moment, a woman's hoarse and cold chuckle sounded from the distant skies, "Interesting, sir, are you able to control the Rule Power?"

Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong looked up to see a strange woman wearing a black windbreaker and grinning with shark-like teeth descending from the clouds. Since the Nightmare Domain still covered around a hundred meters, she had no choice but to stop in mid-air.

Close behind her were a man and a woman.

The man, in his early thirties with a handsome face, wore a faint smile. He stood with his hands behind his back, his head slicked back, and his jet-black overcoat fluttering in the wind over his shoulders.

The woman was propping an oiled paper umbrella, paired with a classical flag skirt that revealed her lower legs, standing like a lady from a painting in the dim and gloomy clouds.

Ke Yanqing's beautiful eyes swept over the two masked figures, her brows slightly furrowed with suspicion.

As she drew closer, she could distinctly sense a strong maternal aura emanating from the K-masked figure, which startled and puzzled her.

Could it be that some Divine Relic was on the K-masked person?

But if that were the case, it would be very strange… after all, even Divine Relics wouldn't have such a rich maternal aura; it was almost as if it was the mother herself!

However, it wasn't important anymore. As she pondered, Ke Yanqing slightly narrowed her beautiful eyes, thinking that as long as she killed this K-masked person, she would naturally be able to figure out what kind of Divine Relic it was.

At the same time, Kovis quickly scanned the surroundings and, through a distant glass window, saw a woman in a black dress fainting on a sofa.

However, what made him frown was that through the sensing of the Emotion Ring, the woman in the black dress still had her memories intact and they hadn't been erased?

Had it actually failed...? Kovis's gaze turned colder, and he shook his head, deciding to put the matter aside for now.

He looked away and quickly focused on the Q-masked person, narrowing his eyes, "It seems, esteemed guest, that you are the one with the exceptionally unusual spiritual power?"

Mu Qingtong didn't respond, continuing with Mind Transmission, "Mr. Xia, the enemy's combat strength may be higher than we anticipated. That umbrella-wielding woman is a Goddess' servant. Although her realm is only True Martial, her strength is close to the Venerable Realm…"

As he listened to Miss Mu's explanation, Xia Feng's brows furrowed tightly. The woman with shark teeth must be a believer of Nightmare, and the nobleman must be that Kovis guy.

According to the current situation, a head-on confrontation would likely be a losing battle.

"Mr. Xia, are you planning to fight head-on or run away?"

Xia Feng wrestled with indecision for a moment, and just as he was about to riskily agree to Gong Changyi's demands, the Gui Blade suddenly vibrated.

"Master, I have sensed the aura of the Goddess' servant. The umbrella in that woman's hand is the Hua God Umbrella, and her identity should be a maid selected by Hua," Yue Hongli's voice sounded.

Xia Feng was stunned, "Uhm... so what?"

Yue Hongli briefly explained the function of the Hua God Umbrella, then said, "The person contracted by the Hua God Umbrella, their body, soul, mind, and emotions, are all firmly under the control of their master. As I am originally one with the master, I can naturally control her maid too, though my control might be severely reduced, only able to control her body and not able to kill her instantly.

"Moreover, the master's authority supersedes mine, so if she intends to stop me, I won't be able to exercise control."

After hearing Yue Hongli's explanation, Xia Feng's eyes lit up, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and an escape plan surfaced in his heart.

Seeing that the two masked people weren't acknowledging him, Kovis didn't get angry. He looked down at his pocket watch, the corner of his lips curling into a smirk, and he waited quietly.

After all, this domain wouldn't last much longer; it would dissipate in at most two minutes.

The only thing he needed to worry about now was that people from the Elemental Church Court were probably about to arrive. Those Priests loved to meddle, and he must resolve this matter before their arrival.

"Red-faced Ghost, wait until the domain dissolves, then you take on the K-masked person, which should be easier to handle. Sister Qing and I will instantly kill the Q-masked person with the abnormal spiritual power. Let's settle this quickly."

"Sure."

Although they overpowered these two masked figures in terms of combat strength, and maybe only the Red-faced Ghost was needed to deal with them.

But Kovis was always cautious—nobody knew what the effects of the Q-masked person's Spiritual Artifact could be. To be safe, instantly killing them was the best plan.

As he was thinking all this, he suddenly heard the umbrella-wielding woman beside him let out a muffled grunt.

Kovis looked at her in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Ke Yanqing frowned and clutched her chest where her heart had just spasmed, the intense pain almost convincing her that she was going to die.

Of course, that wasn't the point; the point was that this pain was coming from the Hua God Mark branded upon her soul!

Her red lips parted slightly, about to say something when suddenly, her heart that caused the spasms once again generated fine electric currents that flowed to all her limbs.

Her cool, beautiful eyes slowly widened.
