I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

Chapter 744: 712. The Incompetent Her



The information of the Holy Release entered his mind, and Xia Feng was stunned, standing rooted to the spot.

This ability...

It's really quite something.

Xia Feng's eye twitched slightly, never expecting that Cha Naixue, someone always considering interests and being a self-serving individual, would awaken a Holy Release ability of selfless devotion.

In theory, whether it's a Spiritual Unsealing or a Holy Release, the ability of a Spiritual Artifact is linked to the owner's personality, past experiences, likes, and such.

If it were a normal Spiritual Artifact, Cha Naixue couldn't possibly awaken such an ability.

But the abilities of Nailuo-type Spiritual Artifacts are fixed; Cha Naixue had no choice.

Mu Qingtong watched them in confusion, growing curious about what kind of ability made both of their expressions resemble constipation.

"What's going on?"

Xia Feng explained briefly, and Mu Qingtong pondered, "Miao Master said that after Cha Naixue's Holy Release, Dipus can emerge. But this ability doesn't seem to have that effect."

Xia Feng narrowed his dark eyes, about to speak.

But suddenly, countless crimson streams of light lit up the ground of the Void Platform, like a complex Array, and the woman in the snow dress was at its center.

Xia Feng's expression changed slightly, and he pressed on Cha Naixue's shoulder, about to enter the Holy Knight Space.

But the Array formed in an instant, Cha Naixue's beautiful, brilliant Purple Eyes shrunk sharply into stardust and vanished, leaving behind only a chilling white in her eye sockets.

Cha Naixue's body, like a magnet, was drawn to the Array's center, and no matter how hard Xia Feng tried, he couldn't pull her away.

"Tsk." Xia Feng's eye twitched slightly, "Sure enough... this old woman from the Miao family really has issues."

The void was silent, with no response.

The reason Xia Feng thought it was the work of the Miao Master was because only a few people could enter this place now, and to have set up such a massive Array here, it had to be the Miao Master, no one else.

As he pondered, Xia Feng looked towards the Star River Waterfall.

"I'm very curious, what are you plotting by setting up such a trap to make Cha Naixue fall into it?" Xia Feng frowned.

The elderly Dipus still had his eyes half-closed, seemingly unaware of the anomaly outside, and he didn't hear Xia Feng's question, remaining silent.

Xia Feng was thoroughly convinced, no longer asking, and looked down again at the woman in the snow dress who was in a daze.

In this state, it seemed like she'd suffered some kind of Spiritual attack.

"A-level Spiritual Clothes, Nightmare Corridor."

Mu Qingtong's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, observing the light paths of the Array on the ground, "I've seen records of this Spiritual Clothes in an ancient book. It's a long-extinct ancient Array technique that can strip away the target's 'self' and has strong hypnotic inducement."

Saying this, Mu Qingtong placed her hand on the woman in the snow dress's head, pondering for a moment.

Xia Feng's mind received synchronized information.

[After roughly scanning the surface Spiritual Particle Structure of the 'Nightmare Corridor', Mu Qingtong gained insight into memory-type Spiritual Clothes, swiftly optimizing the 'Advanced Sea of Memory'. You successfully mastered the B-level Spiritual Clothes, Memory Deep Sea.]

[When you use this Spiritual Clothes, you can manifest in reality, in the form of a holographic image, a profound memory scene of your own from within the past hundred years.

If used on others, it can only manifest their current dream or past memories as a holographic image in reality when they are in an entirely unresisting state of unconsciousness.]

After Mu Qingtong completed her enlightenment, she changed her hand seal with one hand, and struck the woman in the snow dress's forehead with her palm.

Countless streams of light poured out from the back of the woman in the snow dress, forming an image behind her.

.....

It was a long rectangular European-style dining table.

The family members on either side of the table were quietly eating with heads down, occasionally exchanging words.

The maids at the side moved skillfully, silently setting the dinner plates, then crossed their hands over their abdomens and bowed, stepping back silently.

Sitting at the head of the table, Cha Jingyu was looking at a document while sipping black tea.

"Father, in this Spiritual Particle examination, I was just one point behind the chief..." the white-dressed girl on the right side of the head casually spoke quietly.

Cha Jingyu looked up, frowned, and interrupted with a shake of his head:

"Failure is failure. You didn't achieve the chief, that's your incompetence, don't think of using any excuse to absolve yourself. If you can achieve chief next year, the promised will naturally still hold."

The white-dressed girl paused, sighed softly, and nodded, "Yes."

Though the Tushan Tea Family wasn't nobility, it was a renowned mercantile family in the 50 districts.

The industries involved by the Tushan Consortium penetrated every aspect of the lives of the 50 district residents, from clothing, food, housing, and transportation, to high-end and low-end, to entertainment, arts, technology, and games.

The white-dressed girl naturally understood that as the eldest daughter of the Tushan Consortium and its future heir, her father naturally had very high expectations and hopes for her.

But unfortunately, this year's Empire's Spiritual Particle examination coincidentally saw a girl more talented than her, named Mu Qing, rumored to be an alias.

Directly thwarting her plans.

If she had succeeded, today the whole family would be on their way to the Imperial Court, visiting various miracles, instead of being trapped in this boring house, eating a dull dinner.

"Alright, Xiaoxue, don't be upset." Across from her, her mother Tang Xueyu comforted her with a gentle smile, "Didn't your father say, the promise still holds, there's always next year."

"...Yes, okay." Cha Naixue nodded.

She naturally knew there was always next year, but... she still couldn't accept her own failure.

Just as her father said, she couldn't accept her own incompetence.

This blow made her realize that she wasn't as great as she thought.

But fortunately, Mu Qing, this girl was only one point higher than her, not hard to surpass.

With her mind wandering, she hastily finished dinner and returned to her bedroom.

She actually wanted to go to Qiuhu Park to find that silly kid, but it was already late, and sneaking out would probably infuriate her father again.

Forget it...

In the dead of night, with only the faint chirping of cicadas outside the window, she didn't rest after entering the bedroom but disappeared from the spot, appearing in the Different Space within Nailuo.

Unlike ordinary people, from the moment she was born, she awakened an A-level Spiritual Artifact.

Whenever she had time, she liked to hide in the Different Space within Nailuo, calculating the probability of various events. This was one of the few things she genuinely enjoyed.

Whenever a future she predicted came true, it gave her a sense of accomplishment.

With the help of the Different Space within Nailuo, she always tread the right path, rarely making mistakes.

But strangely today, according to time, her mother should be urging her to sleep early, but no information came from her ring.

Cha Naixue raised her hand in puzzlement, only to see that her ring had shattered without her knowing, which meant the owner of the corresponding ring had already...

Deceased!

Cha Naixue's mind went blank in an instant, and before she could think more, she exited the Different Space within Nailuo, staggered a few steps forward in a hurry, and rushed to open the bedroom door—

A strong smell of blood flooded in with the scene of hell!
