I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 488 - 456.Mu & Long’s Hell Difficulty
He Jianzhu’s demeanor was mature and gentle, her voice soft and low. She tilted her head as she looked up at his striking golden eyes, fluttering with confusion, making Xia Feng find her somewhat adorably clueless.
Xia Feng remained composed and shook his head, "Jianzhu, whether we have kissed or not isn’t the point."
"What I’m trying to say is that we are husband and wife and were once followers of a supreme deity."
"Now, you’ve abandoned the faith for some special reasons, but since we’ve reunited, why not come back to the faith with me?" Xia Feng also felt his excuse was not only far-fetched but also risky.
But this was all suggested by Evil Dragon Miss, who had instructed him to test He Jianzhu.
He Jianzhu: "....."
"Is that so...." Her delicate hand gently caressed Xia Feng’s face, her beautiful eyes warmly smiling, "Then husband, how should I return to the deity’s faith?"
Seeing that she still did not question him, Xia Feng realized his lies were completely untenable; this woman didn’t believe him at all.
However, having acted thus far, Xia Feng still pulled out the fabricated Dragon God Order—a golden mini sword the length of a forefinger—that emerged from his forehead and hovered between them.
"You can fulfill the covenant by accepting this order."
The divine glow emanating from the small golden sword reflected in He Jianzhu’s unusually beautiful light golden pupils. She pondered for a moment and sighed,
"So this is the legendary Dragon God Order, I didn’t expect to see it here."
Indeed, He Jianzhu never believed Xia Feng’s blatantly faulty lies from the start, but she didn’t mind playing along with this brat.
For the community of He Jianzhu, each Diversion Body has its mission, and her mission was—one of them—to make Xia Feng develop a liking and perhaps even love for He Jianzhu!
However, it seemed that this mission might be challenging to accomplish.
Because she had already deduced the real relationship between herself and this brat.
When she claimed to be He Jianzhu earlier, Xia Feng recovered his composure quickly, but there was a moment of noticeable embarrassment and panic, the kind you get when caught red-handed by an adult.
It implied that for this brat, she was an elder-type woman who should be treated with respect and not messed with.
Moreover, considering Xia Feng’s caring attitude towards Mu Qingtong, it indicated Mu Qingtong wasn’t simply a female slave but more likely a girlfriend-type close relationship.
If these assumptions were correct, the result was quite clear. Xia Feng’s recent fabrication indeed contained some truth, like Mu Qingtong being her daughter?
If so, it would explain why the brat mistook their identities upon seeing her, as Mu Qingtong and she looked identical. It also explained why the brat was confused and awkward when she revealed her true name, obediently backing off after she rebuked him.
What a bold brat.
However, what really surprised her was the idea of having a daughter?
This scenario should not appear in He Jianzhu’s mission.
From the resemblance between Mu Qingtong and her younger self, one could guess that the birth of this daughter was not the result of any regular methods, and could likely have occurred in an unexpected way, beyond her expectations.
Not necessarily a real daughter.
Of course, that wasn’t the point.
The important thing now was that this so-called daughter named Mu Qingtong was likely the brat’s girlfriend.
This undoubtedly interfered severely with her mission to have Xia Feng develop affection or even love for He Jianzhu.
Fortunately, the definitions of affection and love were very broad.
It could be romantic love or familial love.
If she gained the brat’s affection by standing as his mother-in-law, would that be a problem?
No problem at all!
Or perhaps, killing Mu Qingtong, this unexpected existence outside of the mission, wouldn’t actually be a problem.
Although He Jianzhu had been exchanging looks with Xia Feng the entire time, it seemed that he had completely missed the star-dressed woman floating beside him.
But Disi had already noticed.
"She can see me."
"Hmm?" Xia Feng stuttered, turning his head to glance at Evil Dragon Miss before turning back to face the calm expression of the silver-haired woman.
"You can not only see but also hear me speak," Disi said coolly with her vertical pupils.
"..." He Jianzhu pursed her lips in some helplessness, turning her gaze to meet the vertical pupils of the star-dressed woman, "Pale Empress Disi, indeed I can’t hide from you."
Disi’s vertical pupils narrowed slightly, "Oh? It seems you recognize me?"
"Dragon God jests, which of the heavenly gods would not know you?"
She didn’t want to see this star-dressed woman, but her own abilities were special, and this Dragon God was brightly floating beside her...
He Jianzhu gently pressed Xia Feng’s shoulder and said softly, "I just don’t know what the relationship between Dragon God and this little brat is?"
Disi didn’t answer her question.
"Almost all the heavenly gods are enemies of mine, since you are unwilling to become my servant."
Majestically, her vertical pupils turned to Xia Feng, "Kill He Jianzhu."
Xia Feng didn’t hesitate and a blade formed from Blood Beast appeared in his palm, pressing against He Jianzhu’s back heart, as his dark pupils surged with a cold murderous intent and he smiled:
"Miss Jianzhu, you have three seconds to consider."
The ambiguous atmosphere between them completely dissipated at that moment, and He Jianzhu looked at the Dragon God Order in front of her. She knew the Dragon God Order was very powerful; even just contracting with her Diversion Body would directly affect her main body.
Once contracted, she would never be able to escape.
That was why He Jianzhu realized, it seemed that not only Mu Qingtong but also Dragon God Empress Disi were obstacles in her mission!
It was a hell-level difficulty!
But it was fine, after all, excellent as she was, she had not just intelligence but also numbers.
If one He Jianzhu wasn’t enough, then two; if two weren’t enough, then three...
That was why.
"Both of you, going down as one He Jianzhu, there are still millions of He Jianzhus... Death is not a big deal for a Diversion Body."
She gently patted Xia Feng’s right cheek with her slender hand, casually hooking his chin with her fingertips, her brows lightly bending, "So, dear son-in-law, your threat really isn’t very convincing~"
Xia Feng: "..."
In fact, Miss Jianzhu had led him to obtain a lot of Holy Dissolution Material, not appearing to mean harm, but still, the friend or foe was unclear. Miss Mu had once wanted to kill He Jianzhu too, so if necessary, Xia Feng wouldn’t mind harshly dealing a blow to this strange woman.
But it must be said, this woman was even harder to deal with than Jiang Qiue.
Xia Feng frowned deeply, his chin forcibly raised, the silver-haired woman’s golden eyes gentle, her smile serene, "What’s wrong, little brat, five seconds have passed already, aren’t you going to do it?"
Seeing her such arrogance, Xia Feng couldn’t stand it anymore, his brows quirked: "Do it? Sure!"
With that, his large hand directly repeated his old trick, powerfully throwing off his white coat, making a pia~ crisp sound.
"!!!" He Jianzhu’s gentle smile abruptly stiffened, her index finger that was hooking Xia Feng’s chin trembled, reflecting Xia Feng’s face in her pale golden pupils.
Seeing her somewhat dazed, Xia Feng raised his hand again...
