I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

"Little Nan, where have you been these days!"

The gentle and cool eyes turned cold, with worry mixed with displeased reprimand, "Didn't I tell you to stay at the academy and not run around!"

"....." Xia Feng didn't quite transition, just now this woman was respectful of his Abyss Saint identity, yet subtly held a slight enmity.

Now her attitude suddenly changed, making Xia Feng frown for a moment, but he still held back without saying anything.

After all, he is this woman's brother right now, not suitable to do anything outside of this identity.

Seeing him lower his head in silence, Ke Yanqing's fine brows tightened further, "Answer me, why didn't you listen to your sister!"

"....." Xia Feng, helpless, had no choice but to pretend to be frightened, his cheeks suddenly buried back into the ink-washed Qing Shan, his body trembling.

"....." Ke Yanqing's whole body stiffened again, that vague discomfort once more lingered in her heart, always feeling something was off.

But soon it was dissipated by the trembling of the boy in her arms, she helplessly lowered her gaze, her younger brother had been frail and sickly since he was little, with a fragile Spiritual Body, needing at least 20 hours of sleep a day, nearly never leaving the Ke Manor, hence his timid personality and dislike of speech.

But after all he is a child, full of curiosity about the outside world.

Finally having a chance to freely move in the outside world, it's inevitable he would run about.

Thinking of this, she didn't feel right to scold him further.

However, the necessary punishment still couldn't be spared! But just as she was about to speak.

"Qing, Sister Qing, I'm sorry, Calamity is descending, Sparrow King Star is in crisis, I just wanted, wanted to become stronger...."

The timid voice came from the embrace, the boy seemed very guilty,

"If I could be as strong as second brother, then I wouldn't be a burden to you...."

The anguished and choked tone made Ke Yanqing's beautiful eyes startle, open her red lips, and her sympathy grew stronger, holding Xia Feng tighter, and swallowed back the punishment she was about to say.

This generation of the Ke family actually has four children, eldest sister Ke Yanqing, second son Kovis, third son Ke Beiwang, and fourth son Ko Nan.

However, the third son, Ke Beiwang, died unexpectedly at birth due to Ke Yanqing's powers going out of control and accidentally affecting him.

Fortunately, after Ke Beiwang's death, as if heaven showed favor, another child was born.

Ko Nan then became the third son, and the deeply guilty Ke Yanqing transferred her feelings of remorse for Ke Beiwang onto Ko Nan.

Of course, this is likely the result of the Calamity Rules, Xia Feng guessed as the darkness again enveloped his sight.

Ke Beiwang did indeed exist, but the Game of Life World used its causal link ability to fabricate another child after Ke Beiwang, providing an outlet for Ke Yanqing's guilty emotions.

It must be said, the power of Calamity is truly terrifying.

You must know, the higher the status of the entity one has causal ties with, the harder it is to be affected by Calamity's 'causal link' modification.

Ke Yanqing is a Believer of Hua God, having direct connections with God, yet even so her memories could still be altered, making her relationship web suddenly include an extra brother.

It's quite absurd.

However, perhaps it also involves Ke Yanqing's wish at heart,

Xia Feng thought, Ke Yanqing wanted a compensation target for her guilty feelings, so under such clear desire, causal link became very easy, and the Maid identity couldn't prevent it.

Thinking this, Xia Feng seemed to realize, causal link may seem beautiful, fulfilling people's wishes, but deep down it hides a heavy malice.

For instance, Xia Feng, if circumstances allowed, he wouldn't show any mercy to Ke Yanqing.

The betrayal from the one you trust the most, and are most willing to trust, is terrifying beyond measure!

Of course, killing Ke Yanqing would indeed receive some rewards in the settlement phase, but Xia Feng's main target now is the Dubhe Five, unless necessary, he wouldn't act.

After all, Ke Yanqing's Maid identity is very important.

"Little Nan, you're not a burden." Ke Yanqing's eyes were gently cool, speaking seriously.

Xia Feng's thoughts returned, pausing for a moment, he nodded slowly and replied in a low tone: "Hmm."

Ke Yanqing softly, rubbed Xia Feng's head, pulling him back into her warm embrace, while her beautiful eyes cooled down again, becoming icy and aloof, raising her gaze towards the grand Sparrow God Mountain hidden amidst the clouds that was gradually approaching.

Xia Feng could clearly feel, Ke Yanqing's... maternal instinct was strong, he couldn't lift his head to restore his vision's light.

He could only be taken up by the Golden Sparrow's flapping wings to the sky, his cheeks swaying in the dark and fragrant, his heart feeling peculiar.

Just wondering, if Ke Yanqing knew the little brother was actually an Abyss Saint, and also the K-faced man who once humiliated her, what would her reaction be?

Xia Feng abandoned the struggle to lift his head, thinking silently within.

*

Not far from the Central Tower, in a dimly lit house.

The masked woman in a white coat hid behind the curtains, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes wide open looking at the distant tower, emotions in her heart not calming for a long time.

Three days ago, when the youth directly headed towards the Central Tower, she thought he was like those power representatives, going to negotiate with the Abyss Saint.

But to her surprise.... the youth was the Abyss Saint himself!

This made her heart pound, unable to hide the excitement and joy in her eyes, all thoughts were praises of her father's greatness.

Kikyo Ayame knew the wheelchair boy was definitely a big figure, but didn't expect him to be this significant.

However, what just happened made her joy turn into astonishment.

Not only is the boy an Abyss Saint, but he's the young master of the Ke family? Ke Yanqing's brother!

Ke Yanqing....

The reason she lost the Maid selection back then was solely due to this eldest lady of the Ke family, being humiliated severely by her with her face stepped on, leaving a Heart Demon in her mind, becoming demoralized.

So the eldest lady of the Ke family, is undoubtedly the person Kikyo Ayame hates most in her life, her lifelong enemy.

However.....

Kikyo Ayame tilted her masked face, her almond eyes wide open staring at the direction the Golden Sparrow headed.

My enemy's brother is my father?

The bizarre relationships flashed across her mind; she furrowed her brow. But this doesn't add up, if the Abyss Saint is Ko Nan, why did he have such a exploitative attitude when negotiating with Golden Sparrow?

There must be hidden truths here.

Regardless, forming a contract with the Abyss Saint is the right choice.

As long as the Abyss Saint is willing to take her flying, she, Queen Jiegeng, is destined to be extraordinary! The blonde masked woman's eyes flashed brightly, thinking secretly.

At that time, mere Ke Yanqing will also become the stepping stone of the great Queen Jiegeng!

With this thought, she stepped towards the Sumeru Gate direction to find her father! Yet as she jumped onto a rooftop, her figure suddenly stiffened.

"Boom—!" Purple lightning flashed across the dark clouds in the sky, her almond pupils swirled into a dark purple ※-shaped symbol, an ominous and grand aura of Evil God dispersed in her pupils, divine luminescence extending from her eye corners forming bird-wing Holy Pattern.

But only for an instant, like dropped frames, her expression quickly returned to normal, her almond eyes glanced at the sky, no lightning phenomena at all.

She tilted her head in confusion, seemed a bit lagged, but quickly remembered her main task, slapped her forehead, and turned to dart in the direction of Sparrow God Mountain.

"Right, I must go find Dad!"
