I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch
Chapter 656 - 656: 624. New plays, all are plays

No one expected an enemy to emerge halfway through.

It is known that interrupting the process of Holy Resolution is even more taboo than the result ceremony.

If the Spiritual Artifact fails to evolve, it may not be scrapped, but the Holy Dissolution Material must be collected again.

As for the Holy Resolution Ceremony, it also needs to be conducted again.

For a ceremony like Lord Yeli Dong's that requires enslaving others, if the final Holy Resolution fails, then the subject of the second ceremony cannot be someone previously enslaved.

A new subject must be selected.

Even though it wasn't their own Holy Resolution, everyone in the hall couldn't help but feel tense.

"Buzz——!!"

Only to see the young man standing suspended in mid-air, his robe billowing in the wind, as a black and gold Holy Cross on his forehead turned into a sharp sword, charging directly at Lord Yeli Dong!

However, what surprised everyone was that as soon as the terrifying lightsaber entered the high platform's range, it evaporated into a mist of light and disappeared.

Immediately, a series of cascading white light barriers appeared in front of Lord Yeli Dong, a total of forty-nine barriers, fully encasing the platform where he stood.

The young man who launched the surprise attack was forcefully repelled, flying back ten meters before gracefully coming to a stop.

Lord Yeli Dong raised his unusual eyes slightly, with the heavy pupils in his right eye continuously rotating and evolving.

He curved his lips gently in a mild smile, "Dipus, did you really think I had no defenses against you?"

"Dipus? The son of the Pope?" The crowd below was surprised.

"Why would the Black Moon Church want to stop Mr. Dongjun's Holy Resolution?"

The crowd was puzzled; many of them were unaware of the Sumeru Throne and naturally didn't understand the stakes involved.

Thus, they couldn't comprehend why the two major superpowers, which had always coexisted peacefully in Area 15, suddenly had such a conflict.

On the second floor, Xia Feng saw the situation and felt relieved.

"I must say, Lord Yeli Dong is quite stable."

But just as he sighed, he suddenly sensed Miss Mu's message: "How is it going?"

As for why he could communicate with Miss Mu in this state...

Underneath the burgundy mermaid gown, a finger bone was strapped to his thigh with a leggy ring, and there was also a blank Spirit Paper attached above the leggy ring.

The finger bone was the link for 'Green Bone Tracking Skill,' allowing Miss Mu to see the situation on this side.

The blank Spirit Paper was for writing messages; Xia Feng would control the Spiritual Particles to form words on it, letting Miss Mu see.

At this moment, the finger bone trembled: How is it going?

The blank Spirit Paper trembled: The act is over, the target is about to undergo Holy Resolution.

The finger bone trembled again: Are you going to run or fight later?

The blank Spirit Paper trembled again: Most likely, we will have to fight! Otherwise, Ms. Fu might not be able to leave.

Freya clenched her legs tightly and gripped the railing with cold hands, her exquisite face showing no expression as she stared into the distance with a murderous intent.

The skills of these two students with Spiritual Clothes are simply toxic; do they think this is fun?!

"Buzz buzz——"

The finger bone trembled again: Where did you put the finger bone? Why is it so dark?

The blank Spirit Paper trembled again: With the battle imminent, Miss Mu, you're focusing on such trivial matters? You really disappoint me!

The finger bone vibrated: Mr. Xia, do you remember what I said, don't do anything that'll make me angry!

The paper vibrated: Oh my, Miss Mu's threat is so scary, I've been frightened.

Bone vibration, bone vibration, bone vibration....

The finger bone kept vibrating, and Xia Feng ignored Mu's messages after his playful comments, no longer using the Green Bone Tracking to check her messages.

But that left Freya in a difficult spot.

Freya's ears turned slightly red, her brow furrowed as she pressed her fine hands against her thigh, speaking in a stern, cold voice, "You little brat, can't you be serious for once? Now is not the time for your games!"

Xia Feng seemed innocent: "Ms. Fu, it's really not me this time, it's that pervert Mu Qingtong!"

"....." Freya's breath caught for a moment, Mu... Mu?

She pressed her lips and said no more, knowing she had wronged Mu's fiancé. Moreover, she could feel that Xia Feng's Spiritual Quality's Primordial Yang was intact, clearly like hers, it was his first time....

She had taken Xia Feng's first time, and if Mu knew about it, Freya didn't dare imagine the terrible outcome.

So now.... letting Mu punish her wasn't unreasonable, Freya felt guilty, pressed her legs together, and silently endured the suffering.

Meanwhile, she watched the distant sky with anxious attention.

In the high air.

Dipus glanced at the impenetrable protective web around Lord Yeli Dong, smiling warmly and kindly:

"Lord Dongjun misunderstands, I was merely curious and wanted to admire the Holy Resolution scene closely, not expecting to cause a misunderstanding."

The lie was so clumsy that even a dog wouldn't believe it.

But Lord Yeli Dong nodded with a smile, speaking calmly: "Oh? I see, then I was being overly cautious."

He gave him an out.

"However——" he suddenly shifted his tone, sweeping his gaze over the crowd in the main hall, "among tonight's attendees, there indeed are those with ulterior motives."

Hearing Lord Yeli Dong's cold voice, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill; was there an assassin?

"Wei Shutong, what, you still won't show yourself?"

Lord Yeli Dong hadn't actually known of this person's existence before, but through the investigation of the Garden incident in Area 51, he discovered that Wei Shutong, who had exposed the Garden massacre, was most likely Wei Zhong's son.

Tonight, he was also aware that Wei Shutong and Dipus had infiltrated tonight's birthday banquet.

Though he didn't know what disguises they were wearing.

But now, it was time to catch this rat.

Seeing the crowd in the main hall look at one another, with no intention of standing up.

Lord Yeli Dong sighed and shook his head, flipping his right hand.

Suddenly, a gruesome head, its blood blackened, appeared in his palm from nowhere.

The head's hair was gray and lifeless, its aged face withered and bloodless, eyes sunken and somewhat terrifying, its pupils reflecting bewilderment and anger after understanding the truth.

Everyone recognized the identity of the head.

The City Lord of White Emperor City, once Lord Yeli Dong's close confidant, and the first traitor in the Empire's modern history who led the rebellion to defect to the Evil Clan, Wei Zhong!

"Wei Shutong, your father betrayed his compatriots years ago, turned against the Empire he swore allegiance to, condemning countless innocent civilians to doom, such a heinous sin was deserving of death, what dissatisfaction do you still have?!"

Lord Yeli Dong's righteous shout, his cold gaze swept over everyone.

But lastly, he seemed to recall something, sighed helplessly,

"Xiao Wei, if you're upset because I showed no sentiments for old ties, then I'll tell you today."

"Wei Zhong's wife and mother weren't executed by my hands as rumored, instead, under my covert protection, they lived to enjoy their old age in peace."

Lord Yeli Dong's gaze was steady, "I have always had a clear conscience in my actions, and this matter wasn't something I intended to publicize."

"But Xiao Wei, I'll make it clear to you today, if you still believe I wronged your Wei Family and seek vengeance through assassination, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
