I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 121. Mu Shen's Mother

44 is the limit for all players, not Xia Feng's limit.

Xia Feng had considered letting someone else bid for the B-grade spirit garment, and then he would go and snatch it back, thus saving a lot of life points, but that wasn't a safe option.

Who knows if the guy who snatched the B-grade spirit robe might be a fourth-tier powerhouse?

The safest and most reassuring approach is to get my hands on the B-grade spirit garment first.

Moreover, life points are very easy for him to obtain. Now his goal is to see who has more life points and then find a way to seize control of the body.

So I don't feel bad at all about spending 44.

After all, the purpose of making money is to spend it.

When Xia Feng announced the price, all twenty-odd players who were still alive were stunned.

Damn, are people's life points already this high?
Number 4 stared at the number 17 platform diagonally opposite him, his face slightly darkened. He had originally thought that he was the tallest in the entire arena and that no one could possibly beat him.

But unexpectedly, number 17, who had remained silent all along, was the real big shot.

"Fine, you win." Number 4 took a deep breath, completely convinced.

According to his calculations, number 17 is the "Red Rat," while he is the "Yellow Rat."

According to the clockwise restraint relationship of the three colors red, yellow and blue, Number 17 can prey on him, but he cannot prey on Number 17. Therefore, according to the counter-restraint rule, if he kills Number 17, he will suffer a backlash and perish together with him.

But it doesn't matter, he had previously used skill cards to probe Number 17's strength, and it wasn't that strong.

His strength is at the fourth level.

Therefore, if he could find Number 17 in reality, he would have plenty of ways to force out the "Purge Order" from Number 17 without killing him.

"Tsk tsk, interesting." Number 9's mocking voice rang out. "Number 17, you better watch out. Number 4 is a fourth-tier powerhouse; he'll definitely come after you."

A fourth-tier expert? Xia Feng blinked. But what does it have to do with me, Xia Feng, if a fourth-tier expert is causing trouble for Number 17?

The location of a player can be determined using the [Sequence Number Position Card].

But he's not just number 17, he's also number 10.
The teleportation mark on the Forest Scepter still exists. Although identity number 10 has been declared dead, it does not mean that he cannot continue to use this identity.

He even suspected that he could re-enter the Wheel of Life as number 10, but he never dared to try.

Therefore, once he leaves this space, he can immediately link with teleportation mark number 10. As for mark number 17, it will be considered dead because there is currently no spirit master to link with it.

According to the rules, the serial number position card cannot locate the 'serial number of the link without a spirit master'.

Even if Player 4 is incredibly powerful, he cannot be located in reality, therefore...
"I know that many of you will definitely cause me trouble in real life, but unfortunately, you are all too weak."

Xia Feng sighed, his tone flat, "Number 4, I'm not targeting you personally, I'm saying everyone here is trash!"

"."

"!!!"

"Insanity!"

"You son of a bitch—you just wait!"

"The tallest tree in the forest is bound to be felled by the wind. Number 17, you've been too flamboyant," Player 4 said calmly.

Xia Feng's words immediately caused an uproar among the players present, who all said they wanted to kill him. Xia Feng just sneered at this and said that he lived in the central city of the first district. If they had the guts, they should wash their butts clean and come to play with him.

The satire was incredibly effective, instantly igniting the atmosphere.

But Xia Feng didn't care at all. Under the envious, jealous and hateful gazes of everyone, he received a notification that the "Purge Order" had been credited to his account.

"Congratulations to player number 17 for winning the 'Purge Order'. The next item is..."

Xia Feng wasn't interested in what came next. He opened the gift pack on the panel and, as if he had won an epic weapon in a game lottery, it emitted a purple light.

A pale purple spirit paper materialized in the air, and Xia Feng reached out and took it.

[Suppression Order]

[Rank: Rare B]

The surface was covered with densely packed spiritual particle structure lines. Xia Feng frowned and looked at it for a while, vaguely understanding a little, but seemingly not understanding anything at all.

Thanks to Mu Qingtong's talent, he learned a lot about spirit garments and his understanding of them improved significantly.

Unfortunately, there is a big difference between theory and practice.

He can apply his skills well, but he still knows nothing about the theory.

Just like how he is very proficient in using various office software such as Word, Excel, and Photoshop on the computer, but if you ask him how these office software programs are made or how the underlying code works...
Sorry, he's Boss Xia, the one who only gives orders; Mu Qingtong is the programmer.
The spirit paper was carefully put away; the auction phase ended quickly.

As the fifth round of transactions began, eight pop-up windows appeared instantly, all from people requesting to trade with him.

"Wow, I'm pretty popular~" Xia Feng slowly flipped through No. 17's notebook and found that No. 17 seemed to care a lot about No. 16.

After thinking for a moment, he chose number 16 from the eight requests.

As soon as Platform 16 appeared, a woman's voice rang out, trembling and urgent:

"Number 17, I promise you! I'll agree to all the conditions you mentioned last time! As long as you come to rescue me, I'll do anything for you!"

"."

Although Xia Feng didn't quite understand what was going on, he quickly extracted the key information: "What, anything is fine?" "Yes," Number 16's voice sounded like that of a woman in her thirties, her voice soft and slightly trembling, as if she was about to cry, "Anything, anything is fine, as long as you're willing to save me! Please, my husband is too useless, we can't escape this predicament by relying on him."

There's a lot of information here, Xia Feng needs to catch his breath.

It sounds like Number 16 and her husband are trapped in a calamity and can't escape, so they use the Wheel of Life to ask for help.

I had asked No. 17 for help before, but No. 16 disagreed with the conditions No. 17 proposed, which may have been too unreasonable, so we parted on bad terms.

But now Number 16 is probably completely out of options, so he has turned to Number 17. After all, Xia Feng's extravagant spending just now did make him seem like a very powerful spirit master.

Seeing that Number 17 remained silent for a long time, seemingly hesitating, Number 16 quickly lowered her head to operate the game, while biting her lip and saying in a sweet voice, "Brother~ I've transferred all my life points to you! You have to come~"

[Ding~ Player #16 has transferred 24 health points to your account. The funds have been automatically transferred.]

Xia Feng stared in astonishment at the information that suddenly popped up on the panel.

Life Points: (21+24)45

He just spent 44 points and has 21 points left, but what happened on the 16th completely stunned him. What's going on?
Is this person trying to steal his business? Xia Feng has always been the one giving life points to others; this is the first time he's encountered someone giving him life points.

"Brother, I've given you everything. As for what you want more, what you want to *me, wait until you come, and I'll do it with you." Number 16 seemed to have mustered a lot of courage to say these words shyly.

Xia Feng secretly rolled his eyes, not believing a word of it.

Logically speaking, since the life points were all in Xia Feng's account, even if No. 16 ambushed and killed him in the end, he would not be able to inherit the life points in Xia Feng's account. No. 16 could only get the predator kill reward and could not get anything else.

Unless, like Xia Feng, they have a cheat code.

Therefore, Xia Feng didn't quite understand what No. 16 was trying to do.

But it doesn't matter, since the life points have already been credited, he just doesn't need to go looking for Number 16.

No matter what schemes this woman may have, they are all in vain.

"As for the third condition, I can agree to that, but the Spirit-Imbuing Fruit is kept by my deadbeat husband. I don't know where he put it. Brother, you can ask him for it if you come."

Spirit Infusion Fruits are indeed very rare, but Xia Feng now has Experience Pack #2 and doesn't value them much anymore.

His one of the few good qualities is his tendency to get bored easily with new things.
"Brother, I know you still have concerns, but consider the life points as a deposit." The woman was very understanding, and finally, her voice choked with emotion, she whispered softly, "If you don't want to come, that's...that's okay too."

Xia Feng almost succumbed to his sympathy and believed him.

It's common knowledge that behind every thousand beautiful women in online chats, there's a thousand and one burly men.

Well, according to the typical methods of "pig butchering" scams, a female user's account is often monitored and operated by 2 to 3 men. After all, even fraud organizations need to sleep, so a three-shift work system is also common in fraud organizations.

Finally, number 16, standing on the distant high platform, bowed to him and then ended the transaction.

With such a sincere expression, Xia Feng couldn't help but wonder if this woman was really asking for help.

Xia Feng flipped through No. 17's notes again, which recorded that No. 16 was trapped in a calamity called 'Children's Paradise'.

She lives in a house filled with jasmine flowers, so she's easy to find.

The trading phase and the basic predation phase ended quickly. No one initiated basic predation against Xia Feng, probably because the hatred level had been raised too high. So everyone wanted to hunt him down directly in reality, but unfortunately, these people could only do useless work.

After leaving the Wheel of Life, Xia Feng instantly severed his connection with Mark No. 17 and reconnected with Mark No. 10.

Just then, my phone vibrated.

He glanced at it and saw that it was Mu Qingtong.

[Experience Pack #1: Need help? Come over.]

Xia Feng: You think you can just tell me to go over there and I'll go? Who do you think you are?

After replying, Xia Feng waited for a long time, but Mu Qingtong ignored him and didn't reply! It was as if she was certain that he would come over.

Damn it, who's the boss here?! Xia Feng suddenly realized something: when there's only one employee in a company, that one employee is the real boss.

"I can't even lay off employees," Xia Feng thought to himself, and rolled out of bed.

Perfect timing! I just acquired a Grade B spirit garment; I can find an opportunity to give it to Mu Qingtong.

Soon, he arrived at Mu Qingtong's villa again.

Suddenly, Mu Qingtong's singing voice came from the living room. Xia Feng's expression changed, and he quickly covered his ears.

"Oh no! The voice is poisonous!"

He used his spiritual pressure to block out his hearing before walking into the living room without stopping.

A pile of documents was scattered on the coffee table in the living room. Xia Feng glanced at them and saw that they were all photos of a woman who looked about 60% like Mu Qingtong, but was a bit older.

[Name: He Jianzhu]

Age: Unknown

The official report states it was a suicide, and the body has been cremated, but based on my understanding of her, she wouldn't have died so easily.

He Jianzhu? Could this be Miss Mu's mother? Xia Feng blinked and walked closer, wanting to flip through the documents hidden by the paper to continue reading.

"Mr. Xia, peeping is not a good habit."

A soft voice came from inside, and Xia Feng looked up.
