I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch
Chapter 611 - 611: 579. Legend of the Ultimate Warrior's Talisman

Over the forest.

"Whoosh——!!"

A streak of blue light cut across the night sky, lowering its altitude before flashing a lingering afterimage above the treetops of the forest.

If the speed were slowed down, one could see that this was a two-meter-tall strongman, enveloped in blue flames, even his hair a boiling blue fire.

The lines of the strongman's face were very mechanical, his gaze empty, expressionless.

Yeli Xuanqi stood on the strongman's back like a charioteer, whistling forward as he flew over the forest.

According to the coordinates provided by Mr. Ba, Princess Freya was not far ahead.

He couldn't help but feel excited at the bottom of his eyes; the credit for rescuing Princess Freya was something he'd happily accept.

The main forces were still behind. With his special abilities, it took him just a few seconds to reach this place, which indeed gave him an advantage.

Besides, he had long heard of the princess who had fled her marriage for ten years. It seemed that her relationship with Mr. Dongjun was not good, and she had no affection for him.

And he, Yeli Xuanqi, if he could rescue her during her time of distress and vulnerability... perhaps he could truly win her heart!

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was room for maneuver, and the corner of his mouth curled into an interested smile.

He was actually a contemporary of Lord Yeli Dong; only one year younger, but his talent was indeed not as good. Now, over three hundred years old, he only had a True Martial Second Realm cultivation.

He had also attempted to ascend to Venerate status twice, both times ending in failure, wasting a substantial amount of resources and depleting years of accumulated wealth.

The only good fortune was that his Spiritual Base had not been damaged due to the failures in ascending.

But this so-called good fortune, compared to Lord Yeli Dong—the true pride of the heavens—was laughably insignificant.

As time passed, he watched as the young Apprentice Spirit Master of the past easily became a Venerate, taking steps from Venerable One to Venerable Four, shooting across the sky like a meteor, quickly reaching heights he could not aspire to.

Even, it was said that he would soon condense the fifth fruit position!

Such terrifying talent indeed made Yeli Xuanqi envious to the point of madness every night.

For this reason, he understood the limits of his own talent and completely abandoned the idea of becoming a Venerate, choosing to find some sense of accomplishment among women as sordid as sows.

And Freya... thinking about this woman, the smile on Yeli Xuanqi's lips turned strange.

According to the information provided by Mr. Ba, the kid who kidnapped Princess Freya was named Xia Feng, who used to be a student at Weiyang Academy but then was branded as a traitor, the Eternal Day Saint Child, by Lord Yeli Dong and vanished without a trace.

The boy had some talent in cultivation, but even if his talent were speculated to be that of a super genius, as of a little over a year, he would at most be at the Fourth Rank.

If he resorted to some underhanded methods, at most he would be at the General Fifth level; no more.

After all, beyond that level, one would need to study A-rank Spiritual Clothes to advance to True Martial Rank, and A-rank Spiritual Clothes are the greatest barrier to a Spirit Master's martial achievements.

Of course, most likely this kid was just an Apprentice Level waste who hadn't even crossed the threshold of Superior Rank.

Yeli Xuanqi glanced at the strongman under his feet whom he was using as a means of transportation.

Although he was only at the True Martial Second Realm, the strongman beneath his feet was at the Venerable One Realm!

Of course, this strongman was not a living being.

It was a Soldier Puppet made from the Legendary Divine Relics "Supreme Soldier Talisman" inherited from the Jinyang Power Faction.

To put it simply, its function was to turn the dead into puppets while preserving the strength they had in life, excluding Spiritual Artifacts, with the deceased's rank ceiling being that of a Venerable.

The reason the Jinyang Power Faction had survived to this day, even becoming one of the seven great families of the Empire, with a legacy spanning ten thousand years, was precisely because of this Supreme Soldier Talisman.

Compared to the other six powerful factions, although the Jinyang Power Faction has kept a low profile for ten thousand years, without showing off its strength, no one knows how many Venerable Realm Soldier Puppets they have cultivated with the Supreme Soldier Talisman.

However, it is said that even Divine Relics of Legendary status have their limits, and the Extreme Soldier Talismans cannot be activated indefinitely.

This is probably why the other six families have not jointly attacked the Jinyang Power Faction.

As for why Yeli Xuanqi had a Soldier Puppet of the Venerable One Realm, it was because his mother was from the Jinyang Family.

Over the years, the Yeli family had many marriage alliances with the Jinyang Family.

Lord Yeli Dong, like him, also had a mother from the Jinyang Family.

With various thoughts flashing through his mind, Yeli Xuanqi blinked and was soon nearing his destination, quickly sensing two life forces ahead.

Narrowing his eyes, he activated his Insightful Eyes and sure enough, there was a man and a woman inside a cliffside cave in the distance.

The woman was Princess Freya! She was now unconscious beside the man's feet, her clothes intact, seemingly unharmed by inhumane treatment.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Yeli Xuanqi's mouth curled up, excitement mounting.

However, he did not rashly approach.

With his own strength at the True Martial Second Realm and the Soldier Puppet in his hand at the Venerable One Realm, taking down that greenhorn would be no challenge.

But the fear was that there might be an ambush surrounding them.

After all, Princess Freya herself was not weak, and the fact that she had been captured by this greenhorn was truly strange.

But when he commanded the Soldier Puppet to activate its Insightful Eyes to survey the surroundings, he still found no signs of abnormality.

Could it really be just this one kid alone?

*

After having Ms. Fu pretend to be unconscious, Xia Feng placed the Gui Blade at the entrance of the cave and set up some traps, then stood at the entrance, lost in thought.

What was known so far was this.

In Lord Yeli Dong's plan, because of some special reasons, he could not leave the Sky Fortress, so he would send his men to rescue Ms. Fu.

And the outcome of this play was for him, Xia Feng, to escape seriously injured.

Ms. Fu didn't know any more details.

So Xia Feng wasn't too clear on how many men Lord Yeli Dong would send, or how he should act when the time came.

All that was left was to improvise.

But at that moment, his ears twitched slightly, and his dark pupils imperceptibly looked up.

The Nash Saintly Armor's Forest Protection allowed him to merge his Spiritual Sense with the woods, seeing and hearing everything within a thousand-meter radius.

Thus, within the forest, his field of vision was very broad, and it was difficult for anyone to approach him undetected.

The moment the effeminate man and the burly figure appeared, Xia Feng detected them.

His expression unchanging, Xia Feng's face gradually turned pale, then he vomited fresh blood, staggering and needing to brace against the rocky wall nearby to support himself.

He then staggered over to Princess Freya's side, bent down as if to undo her garments, when the half-conscious Princess Freya began to stir, attempting to push away in resistance.

Seeing this, Yeli Xuanqi knew he could no longer hesitate; it was time for his shining entrance, the heroic rescue—and the peak of his life—was today!

"Whoosh—!!"

From the dark forest, the effeminate man and the burly figure instantly twisted into Blue Flames and appeared just outside the cave entrance.

"Mindless vermin, get your filthy hands off her!!"

With that righteous indignant cry, a terrifying sea of flames surged towards Xia Feng like a deluge.
