I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch
Chapter 594 - 594: 562. Discovery

Xia Feng looked at Feng Nuoyi thoughtfully.

It was apparent that Feng Jianyi deeply loved his daughter.

Seeing the dodgy big brother staring at her with a weird look, Feng Nuoyi clutched her dad's clothes and shrank back, murmuring fearfully, "Big brother, I'm still young... There's no chance between us."

"?"

Little brat, who would even think about possibilities with you.

Xia Feng had discovered that, although Feng Jianyi's daughter appeared young, around six or seven years old, her mind was far more mature than her peers—a clever little devil.

He shook his head and turned back to the window.

Jing Jiu had snapped back to reality from his surprise and was once again flying forward to the next carriage, gradually growing distant.

Jing Jiu was skilled in Space Skill, and this distance was still far from enough to think about escaping.

Still needed to wait.

But at that moment, a commotion drew Xia Feng's attention, and he turned his head to look.

Jin Jili had, unbeknownst to them, already stood at the center of carriage number 126, with a piece of crimson-golden feather suspended in his palm. A faint red ripple swept across the entire carriage, and finding nothing unusual, he proceeded forward.

Carriage number 127, carriage number 128...

Three seconds to scan a carriage, and soon, Jin Jili arrived at carriage number 129 where Xia Feng and others were located.

Xia Feng's brows furrowed slightly, sensing trouble.

Sure enough, as the faint red ripple swept over the seats where Xia Feng and the other five were sitting, Jin Jili's pupils narrowed, and he slowly turned his head.

The Divine Sparrow Feather Mirror revealed their true faces.

In Jin Jili's eyes, the true appearance of Feng Jianyi was laid bare.

What astonished Jin Jili even more was that the woman sitting opposite Feng Jianyi also transformed, her true face revealed.

It was unmistakably Jiang Qiue!

The Divine Sparrow Feather Mirror could only reveal the true appearance of a target after absorbing their blood.

Clearly, Jiang Qiue's blood had not been absorbed by the mirror, yet the disguise was broken, leaving only one possibility.

That was Jiang Qiue—the Black Moon Saintess—could she actually be a Star God?!

Or more specifically, she once was a Star God and now, for various reasons, was in a Weakness Period!

Upon discovering this truth, Jin Jili suddenly found his breath shortening, his lips curling into a strange smile, and his cold gaze swiftly scanning the passengers around Jiang Qiue.

Two women, one young man, a little girl, and a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was Feng Jianyi, and the little girl must be his daughter.

As for the young man, he was likely a Divinity Half-Dragon raised by Jiang Qiue.

The identities of the remaining two women were unknown.

But that no longer mattered.

Jin Jili chuckled lightly, stepping forward without a word.

In the center of the low table among the seats of the six people of Xia Feng's group, pale lettering appeared: "Saintess Qiu E, long time no see."

Everyone immediately understood that this guy had ulterior motives and had no intention of immediately reporting their find to Jing Jiu.

Xia Feng glanced outside the window. To coordinate with the Church Court's investigation, the velocity of the star iron was very slow, and the stability of the surrounding space-time remained high; they had not yet entered the unstable zone.

Such a nuisance.

During his contemplation, the pale lettering on the table swiftly changed, adding, "My demand is simple, Saintess Qiu E. Just swallow this poison pill, and I'll pretend I never saw you all. This is a favorable deal for you, right~"

As the lettering dissipated, it converged into a crimson capsule and gently landed in the exact center of the table.

Jin Jili's lips bore a faint smile as he strolled past the six seats.

Jiang Qiue's eyelids lifted slightly, and a hint of murderous cold light flashed in her ethereal, beautiful eyes.

"I should have taken the opportunity to kill this man back at the Church Court," thought Xia Feng, hearing Jiang Qiue's cold, clear message transmitted through the will of the bee swarm. "But it's not too late now, do you have a plan?"

Creating a time-space disturbance and killing Jin Jili wouldn't actually be difficult.

Xia Feng's black eyes narrowed slightly, finally catching sight of the rippling, distorted lines in the azure sea flow outside the Star Iron, a sign of the decreasing stability of space-time.

Meanwhile, the text on the table changed again.

"Feng Jianyi, if you want you and your daughter to stay alive, then I suggest you persuade the Holy Daughter here. Otherwise, heh, wait till your daughter falls into the hands of those noble lords, who knows what suffering she might endure? As a father, can you bear to see your own daughter suffer like this?"

Feng Jianyi's gaze, previously calm, turned cold suddenly, but he didn't say anything. He just hugged his daughter and sat with closed eyes in silence, waiting.

Xia Feng nonchalantly tossed the cherry-red capsule into the Nash Space.

Jin Jili, who was stepping slowly forward, paused for a moment, his effeminate face faintly darkening.

"Boy, are you making this decision for your master?"

Truly noisy, Xia Feng frowned, silently waiting for the Star Iron to approach the low stability region of the Eternal Flow Sea Domain.

Once inside, he planned to pull everyone into the Holy Knight Space, summon the Refining God Tower, and create a time-space disturbance.

The faster these actions could be carried out, the better. They had to fall into the Space-time River before Jing Jiu could react.

Xia Feng practised the upcoming sequence in his mind.

But just as he was about to act, he was startled, feeling a throbbing from the Pale Seal deep inside his soul.

"What now, Holy Daughter, is this your attitude?"

The writing on the table changed again, but no one cared.

After Jin Jili walked a few more steps forward and saw that Jiang Qiue was completely unaffected by his threats, his feminine face gradually showed a steadfast anger.

But there was nothing he could do.

Fine, Jiang Qiue, do you really think I can't deal with you!

Knowing he couldn't covertly control this aloof Holy Daughter, who likely was a Star God, Jin Jili's mouth twisted into a smirk, turned around, and mocked with his effeminate eyes, "I gave you a chance, Saintess Qiue, but unfortunately, you do not appreciate it."

Saying this, he called out in his mind, "Lord Jing Jiu."

In an instant—

Even though Jin Jili was alone just a moment ago, before anyone could react, a tall Silver Knight had already stepped out of the space.

That imposing, indifferent gaze followed Jin Jili's line of sight, swiftly fixing onto Xia Feng and the others.

So fast! Xia Feng's pupils constricted. He was sure he had seen that man run towards carriage number two.

Each carriage of the Star Iron was a hundred meters long and could be detached for individual travel, while linked together, from carriage number two to one hundred and twenty-nine covered a distance of ten thousand meters!

Yet, this vast distance was but a mere stride to Jing Jiu.

Seeing this, Xia Feng was not panicked, because it was useless to panic... The normal way to escape was already impossible.

Or rather, the moment the Pale Seal throbbed, and he hesitated for that second, the best chance to escape had already passed him by.

Well, if it's gone, it's gone. Small problem, Xia Feng looked up calmly.

Jing Jiu scanned the six of them and then looked at Jin Jili: "Who is it?"

Jin Jili shook his head, "Lord Jing Jiu, I didn't find Feng Jianyi."

"?" Jing Jiu's gray eyes turned instantly icy cold, "Are you seeking death?"

"!" Jin Jili could not suppress the terror rising in his heart. He involuntarily stepped back and hastily said, "Lord Jing Jiu, I've just discovered another suspected criminal."

Before embarking on the mission to assist in the investigation, Jin Jili had received instructions from Sparrow God Mountain to take Feng Jianyi to Sparrow God Mountain if the opportunity arose.

Therefore, it was natural for him not to cooperate honestly with the Apocalypse Knights' investigation, and Feng Jianyi certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to jump out himself.
