Chapter 400 - Dark Council (5th Update)

Chapter 400: Chapter 400 Dark Council (5th Update)

European town.

After a period of intense training, Fan Mengxue progressed rapidly.

She could even use some High-Grade Dark Witchcraft now.

Such a rate of improvement left Anastasia in awe.

Genius truly defies reason.

While Anastasia was marveling, a slight disturbance occurred in the space, and then an emergency letter exuding dark energy appeared in her hand.

Anastasia was slightly stunned.

This was the kind of urgent letter the Dark Council used only when something extremely critical happened.

Had something happened?

Anastasia opened the letter and her complexion changed drastically.

The letter clearly detailed the events.

The Red Cardinal of the National Cult of Country Y, Garry, and former Vice-Captain of the Radiant Knight, Alonso, had both fallen at the hands of Xue An.

At the same time, Xue An announced his intention to destroy the Church of Light.

Such a significant matter made even Anastasia, who had experienced all sorts of storms, change color.

“Master, what happened?” noticing Anastasia’s unusual demeanor, Fan Mengxue couldn’t help but ask.

Anastasia slightly furrowed her brows and then said in a deep voice, “Take care of your matters, and come back to the Dark Council with me right now!”

Fan Mengxue was taken aback. She didn’t know what had happened, but seeing Anastasia’s expression, she guessed that it must be serious and nodded.

“Yes!”

The movie that Fan Mengxue had filmed before had won all the awards it could possibly win.

Afterward, Fan Mengxue had turned down all invitations, publicly stating she planned to take a break for some time.

Han Yao had also returned to her country due to some trivial matters.

Therefore, Fan Mengxue was practically a free agent at that moment, so she quickly handled everything.

Before leaving, Fan Mengxue, unable to suppress her curiosity, finally asked, “Master, what exactly happened?”

After hesitating for a moment, Anastasia then told Fan Mengxue what had transpired.

Listening, Fan Mengxue’s face grew paler and paler.

“The Church of Light… are they very powerful?”

Anastasia nodded, “Very powerful! Our Dark Council has been clashing with them for over a thousand years, and for the most part, we have been at a disadvantage.”

Fan Mengxue’s eyes began to redden, “Then… what should we do? Why was he so foolish to challenge such a vast power alone!”

Although Fan Mengxue knew that Xue An was no ordinary person and that his strength was formidable,

his opponents this time were the top forces that had ruled over Europe for over a thousand years, not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry!

“No, I have to find him!” Fan Mengxue made up her mind and started to head out.

Anastasia frowned, “What problem can you solve by going to him?”

“I can…”

Anastasia cut off Fan Mengxue, saying indifferently, “With your current level of Dark Witchcraft, just any Purple-Garbed Deacon could defeat you. Your going would be of no help!”

“Then what should I do?” Fan Mengxue became so anxious that she began to cry.

Anastasia said coolly, “First, come back to the Council with me. This matter has become so big, if Xue An really intends to move against the Church of Light, the Dark Council cannot just stand by and watch!”

The Dark Council was situated amidst the mountains in Eastern Europe.

There were no roads available for humans to traverse, and even if you used an airplane to survey from the sky, no trace could be discerned.

Unless you employed Dark Witchcraft or other dark magic, it was impossible to enter this place.

After landing, Fan Mengxue took the witch’s robe that Anastasia handed to her, draped it over herself, and followed behind her into the castle.

Once they rounded a ridge, a pitch-black ancient castle suddenly appeared in the distance. The gates of the castle were wide open, and there seemed to be guards patrolling in front.

Not until she approached did Fan Mengxue realize with horror that all the patrolling soldiers were skeletons.

The leading skeleton, upon seeing Anastasia, even bowed very politely and said in a withered voice, “Witch my lady, you’re back!”

My goodness, they could even talk. Fan Mengxue’s eyes widened in amazement.

Anastasia, unfazed, asked, “Have the other lords returned?”

“They have all returned and are waiting for you inside!”

Anastasia nodded and continued to lead Fan Mengxue inside.

While walking in, Anastasia whispered, “Those are Skull Head magic soldiers, created by a very annoying fellow, specifically to guard the entrance to the council.”

“Tassia, here I am hearing you gossiping about me behind my back, that’s not something a lady should do!” a voice chimed in.

Hearing this, Anastasia scoffed coldly, “Karsath, if you dare call me a lady again, believe it or not, I’ll dismantle your bones.”

While saying this, Anastasia continued to lead Fan Mengxue into a large hall.

The hall was sparsely furnished, with just an oval table in the center.

At this moment, several people were sitting around the table.

But these people were challenging the limits of imagination.

One of them, even while seated, was about three meters tall, his muscles sculpted as if carved out, exuding a sense of explosive beauty.

There was also a woman covered as if in mosaics, her face completely indiscernible.

But the most eye-catching was the one who had been bickering with Anastasia.

This person wore a western cowboy outfit, complete with a wide-brimmed hat, but beneath the hat was the form of a skull.

At that moment, this skull was leisurely sipping red wine.

Fan Mengxue was very curious as to how the red wine was actually consumed.

As Anastasia entered, everyone in the room nodded in acknowledgment.

Then Karsath’s dry laughter broke the silence, “Now that the Witch has returned as well, our council may commence! Oh, who is this?”

Karsath took an interest in Fan Mengxue.

Anastasia replied coolly, “My newly accepted apprentice!”

“A female apprentice? I can already smell the faint scent of a lady, she must be a beauty, right?” Karsath said with a laugh.

Anastasia coldly retorted, “Of course she’s beautiful, but you’re a skeleton now, aren’t you? All you can do is look.”

“Even looking is nice, a beautiful body is always worthy of admiration! And shouldn’t you introduce your new apprentice so we can get acquainted?” Karsath said cheerily.

Anastasia nodded, “Mengxue, take off your hood.”

Fan Mengxue did as she was told, removing the hood of her robe, revealing her face.

The room fell silent.

After a moment, Karsath was heard, almost moaning, “My god, isn’t that my favorite actress, Fan Mengxue?”
