Chapter 269: 231 Wax Puppetry and Bloodline Spawn_2

Such patience was required after all!

But in fact, it wasn’t as troublesome as Mr. Liu thought.

Lin An was just stuffing the part of the tree root affected by his ‘Casket-Sealing’ Sorcery into the Spiritual Wall that Mr. Liu was building.

Then, when the so-called ‘Spiritual Wall’ was completed, he activated the ‘Casket-Sealing’ Sorcery once again to seal that part of the tree root.

Heh~

And just like that, a flaw appeared in the Spiritual Wall, a flaw that allowed Lin An to walk straight in.

Tangerine rays surged, with Lin An placing one hand on the large banyan tree, acutely sensing that it had a touch similar to that of the Dark Gold Statue.

Indeed, after all, the so-called ‘Will of the Wizard’ was essentially the real-world version of the Dark Gold Statue.

He stretched out his other hand and placed it on the shadow beneath the long bench of the large banyan tree.

Soul Balancer!

It stemmed from the Armormaking Skills and Tanning Skill taught by Professor Cao—in the past, Chen Xinmi had almost been affected by this skill, nearly merging with the spiritual black cat.

“No! No!”

Mr. Liu’s panicked voice once again echoed in the Mind Space, “Lin An, what are you doing?!”

Isn’t that obvious.

Of course, I’m trying to find a way to kill you!

Lin An’s gaze was focused as he manipulated the fusion of the shadow and the large banyan tree; this fusion of ‘True Self Spirituality’ and ‘Witchcraft Spirituality’ was a standard Knight armoring technique.

From his observation, Chen Shuyun’s Witch-ghoul Transformation, which involved the white python’s spirituality devouring the Dark Gold Statue, was essentially a process where True Self Spirituality eroded Witchcraft Spirituality.

And this process of Witch-ghoul Transformation would continuously manifest physically, causing significant harm to the mind.

Mr. Liu’s so-called ‘Will of the Wizard’ was, in fact, a type of Fusion between the mind and spirit that copied the Furnace Core.

Witch-ghoul Transformation would destroy Mr. Liu’s Will of the Wizard, eliminating these tree roots.

In other words, at the very least, Mr. Liu would lose the ability to create ‘doppelgängers’!

Yes!

It must be so!

“No! What exactly are you doing, stop it!” Mr. Liu screamed in terror, urging those tree roots to attack Lin An once more.

However, this distraction allowed him to suffer another high-intensity attack from Chen Xinmi, and he was struggling to cope.

Boom~

A flame burst open, and the real-world Mr. Liu spat out another mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

Chen Xinmi walked over slowly, holding the fainted Zheng Miao in one hand and a slender cigarette in the other, stepping on Mr. Liu’s shoulder, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion as she looked at him.

She wasn’t sure what had happened to Mr. Liu; he kept losing focus in the middle of the battle.

But it didn’t matter; she would ask slowly afterward.

She exhaled a plume of smoke, and wicked candles mysteriously began to appear around Mr. Liu.

Pfft~

All the candles ignited, the flames twisting the light around them, giving everything a strange flickering appearance.

In just an instant, Mr. Liu’s limbs seemed to soften like rubber, sticking to the ground as if melting away like softened grease, dripping and spreading along the floor.

Witchcraft: Wax Puppetry!

This was an extremely effective method of imprisonment, transforming the enemy into a candle to prevent them from casting spells.

Even worse, lighting this candle would subject one to excruciating pain and torture.

“No, no, no!” Mr. Liu shook his head in panic, his face’s witchcraft mask dissipating to reveal an aged visage.

“Eh?” Chen Xinmi stared at Mr. Liu in astonishment, “How did you get so old?!”

The old man before her was different from the Mr. Liu she knew as a child, and from the Mr. Liu who worked as a technician at Antler Software. He was no longer the greasy middle-aged man; his hair had turned white, and his skin was wrinkled and covered with age spots.

“The exuberance of the soul accelerated the wear and tear on my body…” Mr. Liu gave a bitter smile, looking up at Chen Xinmi, “Xinmi, I am your uncle, your blood uncle. Do you really want to kill me?”

Chen Xinmi pursed her lips and was silent for a moment, “I just want to know what exactly happened to my parents back then!”

“Is it that important?”

No sooner had Mr. Liu finished speaking than the heel of Chen Xinmi’s high-heeled shoe, which was resting on his shoulder, suddenly turned into a dagger and plunged deeply into his shoulder.

“Ahhh~~~” The dagger seemed to be poisonous, continuously stimulating Mr. Liu’s body, the stinging pain rapidly eroding his control over his own body.

Mr. Liu wailed miserably, panting and shouting, “Please, no, remember how I took care of you and your sister when you were kids, don’t do this to me!”

The dagger vanished, and the high heel was pressed against the wound, ready to stomp back in at any moment.

Chen Xinmi looked at him coldly, “Like I said, I only want to know the truth!”

“I’ve been seeking that answer all my life, seeking revenge for my parents with Antler. But now I must choose between revenge and protecting my sister, I have to know the answer!”

“Heh…heh…heh…” Mr. Liu gasped, emitting an eerie laugh.

“You can only torture me, you cannot kill me!” Mr. Liu struggled to keep his increasingly heavy eyelids from closing, raising his head to look at Chen Xinmi, “If this body dies, I will be completely free, and I will be resurrected in another incarnation, you will never get to know!”

Chen Xinmi narrowed her slender, phoenix-like eyes and coldly said to Mr. Liu, “Then I’ll go find you, kill you again and again until you’re forced to tell!”

“You won’t find it!” Mr. Liu laughed grotesquely, feeling his limbs becoming more and more limp, as if melting like candle wax onto the ground, his eyes somewhat gleeful, “Let me tell you a secret, I have an incarnation abroad. That one was created using my son, the blood tie makes it especially useful.”

His head also began to melt, the back of his skull softening and deforming against the ground.

He continued to mutter, “Young, full of vigor, handsome, exceptionally wonderful.”

Chen Xinmi looked at Mr. Liu with disdain, “You’re truly disgusting!”

Mr. Liu’s eyes drifted aimlessly towards the sky, “Heh heh, but you see, I want my son to live, don’t you agree? I don’t want to take over the bodies of my sons.”

He could no longer raise his head to look at Chen Xinmi; his neck also began to melt.

“My dear niece, let’s make a deal…”

His voice became strange, shrill, and it took great effort for the softening chest to provide power to the airways and vocal cords, “Kill Lin An, he’s nearby. Kill him, and I’ll tell you what exactly happened to your parents!”

“Impossible!” Chen Xinmi flatly refused.

“Heh…” Mr. Liu chuckled, “Don’t tell me you like him. You’re heartless, I know that. Your heart is with your sister. You’re incapable of loving anyone.”

“Oh, really?”

“Of course. Even if your heart felt love, your body has no place to harbor it. All the emotions that burst forth from your heart have nowhere to be placed. The Heart-to-Heart Sorcery, exchanging hearts, heh, I know all too well.”

Chen Xinmi retracted her leg and stood aside, silently taking a drag of her cigarette, deep in thought, “Is Lin An dealing with your curse right now?”

Witchcraft clashing was not the norm. Super Dimensional spellcasting often even transcended the limits of space and time.

Mr. Liu’s whole body began to meld with the ground, his chest rising and falling powerlessly, like an oily blister pulsating, “The hunter of geese, today pecked by a goose, I’m not content with this at all~~~”

Pop~

Chen Xinmi snapped her fingers, and the flickering candlelight came to a stop.

She looked down at Mr. Liu, “Lin An is of great use to me; I can’t just kill him like that. I’m going to stop him now, and in exchange, you must tell me what happened to my parents back then!”

Mr. Liu’s head had already turned into a slop of mud on the ground, an eyeball rolling in the mud turned to fix on Chen Xinmi, his mouth twisted into strange, distorted shapes as it opened and closed, “Deal!”

Golden tendrils of light spread from Chen Xinmi’s hand, touching Mr. Liu, and with a surge, he vanished with a pop.

The Contractual Witchcraft was fulfilled!

Chen Xinmi was not worried about Mr. Liu going back on his word; the Contractual Witchcraft had already extracted Mr. Liu’s memories of her parents from that time. As long as she stopped Lin An, even if Mr. Liu refused to speak, those memories would be transferred to her as compensation.
