I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch
Chapter 623 - 623: 591. Presenting the Spiritual Clothes of Memory

After the Heavenly Destiny Stone was replenished, Mu Qingtong instantly felt her groggy state vanish completely.

That imminent sense of crisis also quietly faded away.

She let out a light sigh of relief.

Gently rubbing Mr. Xia's black hair, the corners of her eyes barely perceptibly curved up in appreciation, "I must say, Mr. Xia does have some use."

Xia Feng pushed her hand away, smiling insincerely, "Miss Mu, I suggest that if you want a supply of Life Power in the future, you should treat me with a bit more respect."

Mu Qingtong's eyes slightly curved, and she smiled.

She knew clearly that in a real crisis, Mr. Xia would still intervene to save her just as he had during the ambush battle, without any consideration.

And she would do the same.

So... Mr. Xia's threat really was pointless.

She reached out and patted the man on the shoulder, her golden eyes indifferent, "Alright, Mr. Xia, get ready, we're going out tonight."

"Going out? Where to?"

"Lantern Festival."

"What's that?" Xia Feng asked, puzzled.

"Today is the founding day of Litian City, so every ten years, this city hosts a grand celebration called 'Litian Festival,' later because of the tradition of releasing lanterns for blessings during Litian Festival, it's also called 'Lantern Festival.'"

Xia Feng nodded thoughtfully, basically understanding, it was akin to the Lantern Festival.

"And then? Are we going?" Xia Feng didn't think Miss Mu would be interested in such a festival.

"At the Lantern Festival, there is a type of Spirit Paper that can solve our problem with the brilliance of Sirius becoming a Venerable."

"Oh?" Xia Feng raised an eyebrow, "Really? That sounds too good to be true."

"Of course, it's true."

Mu Qingtong said calmly, "Why would I lie to you about this?"

Of course, it was false.

Regarding the problem of Sirius's brilliance, she indeed had a clue, but there was no such Spirit Paper at the Lantern Festival.

Her aim in going to the Lantern Festival was to acquire the "Spiritual Clothes·Sea of Memory."

According to the information she gathered from various sources, this was a type of Spiritual Clothes that could fully display deep memories from the depths of the Sea of Memory in a virtual imagery form.

Once she secretly learned to use this Spiritual Clothes, her plan to conquer Mr. Xia would leap forward, maybe even in one fell swoop!

To make Mr. Xia submit!

However, it was probably best not to let Mr. Xia know of this Dao Spirit Clothes' existence, to prevent him from being on guard.

Unsuspecting, Xia Feng chatted with Miss Mu for a few more moments before they temporarily separated.

Miss Mu continued to stay in the laboratory, recuperating her body condition, while he took advantage of the early dawn, before the sun had risen, to head east.

Feng Jianyi had given two laboratory coordinates; Laboratory 7 in the deep sea had already been destroyed, and Xia Feng had taken the Initial Destiny Stone and the Heavenly Stone Embryo.

Now, he planned to use his spare time to visit Laboratory 8 and take the Divine Relics within.

However, what surprised him was just as he arrived at the outskirts of the forest where Laboratory 8 was located, he found military forces stationed there.

Watchtowers were arranged, a pale blue protective barrier covered the sky dome, and several solemn warships protruded from the clouds tinted by sunrise.

Amidst the dazzling brilliance, a flag with silver background and black characters fluttered in the cloud-filled sky, at the center of the flag was the powerfully aggressive character "商".

It was the Lidong Army of the Fourth Pillar.

Xia Feng activated Forest Protection and the Eye of Decompilation, scanning the deep forest where two auras from individuals in the Venerable Realm lingered, one of whom was an Apocalypse Knight.

Seeing this, he did not hesitate and turned to leave.

It seemed that Lab 8 had already been discovered by Lord Lidong's troops, and the Divine Relic there had likely fallen into their hands.

It didn't matter much.

The Divine Relic was called "When the Cold Cicada Cries," and though its effect was incredible, capable of significantly enhancing the user's cultivation, the conditions for its use were harsh, requiring a commitment to save humanity at the cost of one's life.

Xia Feng knew himself well, he was actually quite afraid of dying.

Though he wanted to unveil the truth about White Emperor City and avenge the soldiers by striking at Lord Yeli Dong, he truly hadn't reached such a noble level of sacrificing for humanity.

He simply followed his heart and did his best.

Of course, "When the Cold Cicada Cries" paired with his Immortality Authority seemed fitting; dying using the cicada cry, he could still resurrect.

Unfortunately, knowing he would definitely not die, he lacked the necessary resolve to die, making it impossible to use the cicada cry.

After gathering information, Xia Feng returned the way he'd come, contemplating his current strength along the way.

If he joined forces with Miss Mu, they could handle an existence of a singular Venerate Third Rank, but if the opponent were any stronger, it would be tricky.

However, he had now acquired a Pure Blue Level Divine Relic, the Bone Dragon Halberd, originating from Ba Ji—it was a rather impressive treasure.

The Bone Dragon stored within it remained intact, though it had lost its vitality and intelligence upon Ba Ji's death.

However, after Xia Feng had dripped a drop of his blood on it, he reestablished ownership of the Bone Dragon Halberd. The dragon regained basic vitality and intelligence, conveying a faint sense of closeness and submissiveness toward Xia Feng.

The Third Rank Bone Dragon, with its straightforward attack patterns of Dragon Flame and Dragon Roar, could not perform even a tenth of its power in life, but it was still quite strong.

Xia Feng was very satisfied.

With this Bone Dragon's aid, he should be less beleaguered when facing dual Venerate Third Rank powerhouses like Ba Ji.

Speaking of Ba Ji, Xia Feng couldn't help but worry.

About Lord Yeli Dong's humiliating plan, he had already assisted once, but there was a mishap.

It seemed like Lord Yeli Dong genuinely wanted to kill the puppet Xia Feng, but now he had escaped and even counter-killed Ba Ji. Lord Yeli Dong's self-sealing memory wouldn't arouse suspicion, but it definitely would raise Sword Heart's suspicions.

That might be troublesome.

But with things as they were, he didn't want to overthink it; for now, he should prioritize attending the Lantern Festival to address the issue of Sirius flickering caused by achieving Venerate status.

Thinking it over, he hurried and eventually managed to return to Bronze Building by dusk.

Although attending the Lantern Festival involved serious matters, he still wanted to dress... well, and formally, too.

He certainly couldn't be outshone by Miss Mu!

After bathing in the luxurious suite arranged by Miss Mu and admiring himself in the mirror for a while, he nearly got dazzled by his own handsomeness.

It must be said, this was a rare moment of leisure, feeling not like a fugitive criminal on the run but like a good student about to hang out and shop with friends... and a girl with benefits.

Since his escape from Zone 51, he seldom had moments to relax.

Even during the tumultuous times with Miss Mu, it was always nerve-wracking combat, aiming for a definitive outcome, which was exceedingly exhausting.

After fixing his hair and outfit, looking dashing, Xia Feng had just picked up his phone when a special notification vibrated.

"Ding~"
