I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch
Chapter 704 - 704: 672

Buzz!

Like a plague of locusts, tens of thousands of Blood Bats flickered and darted through the underground rocks, but as they reached within a hundred meters of the safe house, they collided like a divine barrier, bursting into blood mist.

"Bang——! Thud——! Thud——...."

A river of blood quickly formed underground, all red.

Leng Xiu wondered, what was going on?

He had just observed the mechanism of these Spiritual Particle barriers from above and identified their weaknesses.

So he didn't waste any more words and charged straight down.

The outcome was as he had expected; nineteen layers of barriers seemed like a lot, but once the method to break through was found, it wasn't difficult to breach.

However, it didn't take long before he suddenly found that the outermost barrier layer, which was about to succumb to his assault, inexplicably became several times stronger, and its Spiritual Particle Structure had inexplicably changed.

Moreover, every few minutes, the already complex structure was overlaid with a dense array of light points.

Thus, an entire hour passed, and the sealed Spiritual Particle Structures became a chaotic mess, like thousands of tangled skeins of yarn interwoven, knotted, and hurled straight at him.

His scalp tingled.

Because of this,

the Blood Bats began dying in great numbers under the bizarre barrier, and Leng Xiu's blood surged, his previously pale face showing frightening red spots, with skin seemingly on the verge of decay.

This was the backlash of his overused power.

Unbelief led him to control the Blood Bat army for another attempt to break the barrier.

"——" In the end, he let out a dull groan, as black blood trickled from the corners of Leng Xiu's pale lips, his eyes, once glowing with a sinister red light, dimmed with numbness.

Damn it! What on earth is wrong with this barrier? Leng Xiu's expression was unpleasant.

"Blood Ghost, what are you doing?"

Burning City, who had been resting in the void, reappeared in the sky, his authoritative gaze indifferent, "Three hours remain until the transaction time, gauge it yourself."

"....."

The vampire man clicked his tongue, tongue flicking against his cheek as he licked his sharp fangs, spitting out blood to the side.

He never expected such a scenario, having found this Holy Daughter, yet unable to have her—truly frustrating.

"Burning City, lend Leng Xiu a hand." At this moment, a grand holy voice descended from the endless skies, ethereal and vast.

Burning City glanced up, somewhat surprised.

He nodded, and in an instant, the blizzards and hail over a thousand-mile radius turned scorching hot, melting into intensely red molten lava—

Like countless fiery meteors against an apocalyptic backdrop, they crashed into the earth thunderously.

"Boom!!!"

The ground caved in, all matter melting instantly into slurry, forming a gigantic abyssal volcano, with boiling magma continuously seeping downward to devour more.

The safe house also trembled briefly before being engulfed within the crimson waves of the Magma Sea.

Like a slippery egg, it was swallowed by the terrifying molten beast, soon to be liquefied into water, its inhabitants facing annihilation.

But unexpectedly, the safe house merely shivered and remained unwavering.

Its outer nineteen layers of radiant energy swirling brilliantly, tightly encasing the central oval structure, undamaged.

Confusion rose in Burning City's lava face; his fiery golden eyes questioning.

This barrier, supposedly set by a Venerate One Realm, with only a small amount of Spiritual Particle—yet it was this powerful?

How did they accomplish this? Burning City wondered, roughly estimating that even if he were to try breaking in by force, it would take at least half a month, provided his Spiritual Particle quantity remained ample.

Seeing Burning City also had no solution, Leng Xiu sighed yet quietly felt relieved; it wasn't his inadequacy, but this barrier's bizarre strength!

Inside the safe house.

Cha Naixue was also surprised by the outside scene.

She initially thought it would be a tough battle, but it resolved so effortlessly.

One must say, Little Feng and Mu Qingtong's methods are indeed more peculiar with each encounter, always broadening her horizons.

And their harmony when creating Spiritual Particles....

Could they truly be destined partners?

Cha Naixue's gaze was complicated, silently fixing on the tall figure of the man in front of her.

Since Xia Feng escaped from Area 51, she had been trying hard to catch up.

Yet in less than a year, this man's skills had far surpassed her own, becoming someone she could only aspire to reach.

In truth, Cha Naixue was also considered a genius in Spiritual Cultivation, once confident in her abilities,

but reality proved that her genius, in comparison to Little Feng, was like an ant!

At this moment, Jiang Qiue walked to Cha Naixue's side, her delicate hand gently resting on her shoulder, her expression calm though her mind whispered softly, "Cha Naixue, don't forget our agreement."

Cha Naixue glanced at this stern fox-like Holy Daughter, who wanted to overthrow and humiliate Little Feng, then smiled lightly, signaling reassurance.

"That should resolve it." Cha Naixue approached Xia Feng, looking outward.

Xia Feng's expression was solemn, shaking his head: "Seems not yet."

Only to see Burning City raise his hand, the oval safe house was then wrapped and lifted by molten lava, placed into a giant net woven from Blood Bats.

The vampire man stood on a large Blood Bat, floating beside the massive Blood Bat web, arrogantly sneering, "Foolish pigs of Black Moon, just hide in this turtle shell until we finish our business, then we'll have time to deal with you!"

With that, the three Angel Envoys carried the oval house wrapped in molten lava and Blood Bats, flying quickly into the depths of the storm.

*

Safe house, living room.

Three women and one man gathered around a table full of snacks.

Xia Feng lay horizontally on the central sofa, closing his eyes and resting, seemingly lost in thought.

"A temporary solution, not a permanent one." Jiang Qiue sat upright with her legs joined beside Xia Feng's black-haired presence, her ethereal eyes lowered, gazing at Xia Feng's face, "What should we do now?"

The honey scent wafted to Xia Feng's nose; he instinctively sniffed, his brow furrowing slightly before glancing at the elegant woman reclining on the sofa on the opposite side.

He withdrew his gaze, shaking his head helplessly: "Being forcibly taken by these Angel Envoys.....there's truly no good strategy; we can only take it step by step."

"By the way, with whom is Leng Xiu supposed to be trading?"

"Based on my calculations, there is a 73% chance it is with An Ji Saint Shepherd, and a 21% chance it is with Moluo Saint Shepherd...."

Cha Naixue, sitting beside the black-skirted woman, frowned, "According to intelligence, An Ji Saint Shepherd has defected from the General Court with the 'Sumeru King Order', and Burning Heaven has sent four Angel Envoys here, prompting speculation that the Burning Heaven Disciples are actually here to support An Ji Saint Shepherd...."

Sumeru King Order... Xia Feng quietly sensed the Nash Space, where an ancient black token quietly floated.

Although its specific role in the tussle for the Sumeru Throne was unknown,

from what Xia Feng knew, there were only two such Sumeru King Orders, representing the identities of the [Black King] and [Red King].

The one in Xia Feng's possession was the [Sumeru King's Order·Black King].

An Ji Saint Shepherd's should be the Red King's Identity Token.
