I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch
Chapter 644 - 644: 612. Miss Mu's Threat

"What's the next step?"

The plan was still proceeding smoothly? Xia Feng was somewhat surprised and perked up, "So, what is Lord Yeli Dong planning to do next to complete the plan?"

"Tomorrow night, Lord Yeli Dong will be hosting a birthday banquet at the Sky Fortress."

Freya's hand conjured a sphere of light, which morphed into a string of text.

"Little Feng, you should head to this place later, the alley behind the café at Huainan Road's street corner, under the locust tree. The invitation for the birthday banquet has already been placed under the locust tree by Sword Heart, and your identity will hold up, no issues there."

"However, you must still be cautious when you go, in case Sword Heart has already sensed something and set a trap for you."

Xia Feng looked at the address, nodded, and then posed his question: "Ms. Fu, Ba Ji has already been killed by me; hasn't Lord Yeli Dong noticed anything odd?"

Freya pursed her lips, slightly amused, and shook her head. "Ms. Fu initially thought there would be problems too, but it turned out that according to Sword Heart's plan, Ba Ji was meant to die anyway. Sword Heart..."

Listening to the explanation, Xia Feng roughly understood.

Sword Heart intended to carry out Lord Yeli Dong's Holy Resolution Ceremony simultaneously completing his own agenda. He secretly dispatched the Gun King to impersonate a member of a mysterious organization, planning to suddenly appear and kill Ba Ji, saving the puppet Xia Feng.

Killing Ba Ji was for the ritual, and saving puppet Xia Feng was for a further humiliation plan.

Xia Feng couldn't help but recall the day he had killed Ba Ji and escaped, running into that person wearing the Pink Peach Mask who fell into the black hole, who must have been the Gun King.

Simply put, Miss Mu accidentally and correctly replaced the Gun King in his role in this drama.

"What about the Gun King? Didn't he return to the fortress?" Xia Feng wondered.

"He didn't return," Freya shook her head. "However, it's also possible that the Gun King might have secretly come back."

"That's also something Ms. Fu wanted to remind you about. If the Gun King has indeed secretly returned, Sword Heart surely knows the truth, and now it is very likely that he is manipulating the situation, wanting to lure you into the Sky Fortress to trap you."

Lure me to trap myself... Xia Feng pondered; this certainly was a problem. Had the Gun King returned to the fortress or not?

Logically speaking, if the Gun King had fallen into a black hole, it would not be easy for him to escape, at least not in just a couple of days.

But what if the Gun King was capable enough to do so?

Xia Feng stared at the Spatial Red Rope on his right wrist, lost in thought for a moment, then looked up at the woman in the black dress: "Miss Mu, it seems I'll need you to cover me outside the fortress. If there's indeed an issue, I'll directly use the Spatial Red Rope to teleport out of the fortress."

"As you wish."

Mu Qingtong spoke calmly, paused, and then with polite curiosity looked at the woman in the martial arts attire not far away:

"Ms. Fu, following your husband's plan, how are you and my fiancé planning to act out the next scene?"

Freya: "....."

Xia Feng: "....."

The air quieted for 0.25 seconds.

With a poker face, Freya curiously asked, "Mu, Ms. Fu remembers you; you've become quite a famous star recently, are you here on a business trip in District 15?"

"Yes," nodded Mu Qingtong. To coordinate with her operation, her physical incarnation had indeed come to District 15.

After brief pleasantries, a friendly and polite reunion between teacher and student ensued.

Freya's wine-red eyes were calm, and she explained seriously: "According to... my husband's plan, when Xia Feng attends the birthday banquet tomorrow night, it will create an opportunity for him to secretly sneak into my room and pretend to assault me...."

"Mu, rest assured, since it's just acting, as long as nothing unexpected happens, the teacher won't really get involved with your fiance."

She looked serious, her cold stunning face all business, "Besides, Little Feng is still my student."

"....." Xia Feng stood silently by, nodding. Indeed, his relationship with Ms. Fu was purely that of a teacher and student, and tomorrow night would be just a play.

Nothing would really happen!

Besides, he, Xia Feng, was a student who respected teachers, was simple-minded, and had a kind heart.... a very respectful student towards Ms. Freya.

"Is that so? Then that's good." Mu Qingtong nodded lightly, but her gaze lightly darted towards Xia Feng.

She naturally trusted Ms. Freya's character, having interacted with her a lot during her time at Weiyang Academy, as a sincere and responsible teacher, a woman of her word.

But Mr. Xia.... This guy never abided by conjugal virtues, shamelessly taking advantage of the dissolved engagement agreement to womanize everywhere, impure in both body and mind!

"Miss Mu, why are you looking at me like that?" Xia Feng felt this woman in a black dress seemed to be looking down on him with her eyes, which was extremely improper!

"She's worried you might have ulterior motives towards me, the teacher," Freya chuckled nonchalantly.

Xia Feng turned around, about to retort, but his gaze just happened to land on Ms. Fu's pursing and parting luscious red lips.

He couldn't help but recall in the cave those enticing warm breaths of hers whispering by his ear, like the seductive chants of a fox demon.

Sensing Xia Feng's intense gaze, Ms. Freya seemed to recall something as well; her smile instantly subdued, her lips pursed, her right hand pressing on the hilt at her waist, the blade gleaming coldly, resonating a dangerous chill.

Her eyes coldly and solemnly glanced at Xia Feng, then looked towards Mu Qingtong, "But don't worry, I'll keep him in check. This vile boy wouldn't dare to cross the line."

Following that, Ms. Freya explained some details of the plan, then vanished from the spot.

After Ms. Freya had left, Mu Qingtong tilted her head, looking towards Xia Feng. Her beautiful golden pupils held a soft smile, yet her tone was plain:

"Mr. Xia, a reminder for you, you'd better behave tomorrow night, otherwise, you know the consequences."

Hearing her implied threat, Xia Feng raised an eyebrow in confusion, "Consequences? Miss Mu, you aren't daydreaming again, thinking you can now beat me, are you?"

Her lips curved into a subtle smile, unfaltering, as she elegantly stepped closer to Xia Feng.

As their eyes locked onto each other, Xia Feng remained composed, taking the initiative to whisper teasingly in Mu Qingtong's ear:

"Miss Mu, why don't you just admit you like me? That way, I'll behave properly tomorrow, how about that?"

Mu Qingtong's delicate eyebrows furrowed lightly, this being her biggest disadvantage in their confrontations against each other.

Mr. Xia could shamelessly use physical taunts to play and threaten her, something she couldn't reciprocate.

This inherently placed her at a disadvantage in this battle.

But.... well, it didn't matter, as this foolish peer would soon submit to her. For now, she'd let him have his moment.

"Mr. Xia, I'm warning you one last time."

Mu Qingtong realized she had been too kind to Mr. Xia, sighing, "Your behavior tomorrow night will determine your future status in submission to me, and the severity of the punishment you'll face."

Saying this, her slender, delicate fingers hooked under Xia Feng's chin, suddenly pinching and lifting it.

"So—"

Xia Feng was forced to raise his cheek, only to see in front of him Miss Witch's gentle smile slowly fading, as her cold beautiful eyes looked down, "please don't do anything to anger me, okay?"
