I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 25. Star God's Agent
Yan Xujia: "What do you mean?"

"Your first condition was to take the pocket watch, right? It's a pity that it was smashed and lost yesterday in the Evil Dragon Forest."

Yes, the pocket watch shattered during the battle with that second-tier bald assassin. Apart from the family photos inside which he kept in his pocket, the fragments of the pocket watch were long gone, lost somewhere in the Evil Dragon Forest.

"Bang!" The knight who had confidently stepped forward to introduce himself earlier couldn't contain his temper and slammed his hand on the table, saying in a displeased voice, "Xia Feng! Don't be so stubborn!"

"Xia Feng, is this funny? Trying to fob me off with such a ridiculous excuse?" Yan Xujia clearly didn't believe this absurd reason. After all, the pocket watch was a token of love that Cha Naixue had given to Xia Feng, so Xia Feng would definitely keep it safe and wouldn't let it break.

"You don't believe me even though I told you the truth?"

"Alright, since it's broken, hand over the pieces." Yan Xujia leaned on the table with one hand, slightly bent over, and tapped the lighter on the table with a dull thud.

"They all say it was shattered in the Evil Dragon Forest."

Xia Feng frowned, "Are you a pig? Can't you understand human language?"

"!!!" Yan Xujia's breathing became slightly sluggish, and an inexplicable anger rose in his heart.

But he quickly suppressed his anger. He knew he absolutely could not fight this guy here!

As for this guy's claim that it shattered in the forest, he didn't believe that nonsense at all. Even if it did shatter, how could Xia Feng just casually leave the fragments in the forest?
Seeing that the other party was so stubborn, Yan Xujia completely lost her patience, and pulled out a chair with a whoosh.

"Xia Feng, if you truly care about Nai Xue, you should understand that completely severing ties with her is the best way to help her!"

He suppressed his anger and said coldly with displeasure, "Besides, Nai Xue's attitude towards you is already clear. What's the point of you still holding onto this?"

Looking at this silly dog ​​immersed in its own world, Xia Feng inexplicably thought of a Pomeranian he had in his previous life, which always liked to bully people by taking advantage of its owner's power and would bark and provoke people everywhere at the slightest provocation.

The more you talk to it, the more energetic it gets, constantly causing trouble for its owner.

Seeing Xia Feng staring at him with a slightly mocking gaze, Yan Xujia's anger flared up again, but as a cultured and nobleman, he would not fight with such a lowly commoner.

In fact, he had already offered very generous terms. Such an opportunity to rise from the lowest class to the nobility is something many people would kill for.

But Xia Feng still seemed indifferent, making him realize that this matter would not be as easy as it had been in the past.

There are plenty of fools in this world who think everyone else is stupid, but he wasn't. Yan Xujia knew very well who he shouldn't mess with.

Who can be trampled underfoot?

This is why, despite his arrogant behavior over the years, he has not been resented by anyone, because those who were resentful of him are all dead.

Xia Feng was clearly someone he could trample underfoot, so there was no need to rush. Yan Xujia glanced at the black-haired youth in the seat.

He was too lazy to say anything more, and leisurely straightened his cuffs:
"Xia Feng, you should weigh the pros and cons yourself: whether you want to gain the friendship of all the nobles in the Northern Territory or recklessly act like a fool."

"I'll give you one day. I hope you can make a wise choice."

After saying that, he turned around and beckoned, and a group of people surrounded him as he leisurely left the restaurant.

After everyone left, the tense atmosphere in the restaurant dissipated, and hushed whispers quickly filled the air.
Mushroom's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed a little, but she could still feel the heavy gazes that had gathered around her, some mocking, some curious, some gossiping, and some gloating.

The fact that Xia Feng is Mu Qingtong's fiancé has made many people unhappy, so they are naturally happy to see him suffer a setback.

Mushroom glanced at Xia Feng with concern and whispered, "Are you alright?"

"Don't worry, at worst we can just have a fight." Xia Feng patted Mushroom on the shoulder. Imperial laws are strict, and fighting or even killing in public is definitely not allowed.

But he already had a murder plan in mind.

However, before dealing with this guy, we need to do some spiritual analysis first.

Mushroom shook his head: "Although Yan Xujia is also a first-tier cultivator, I've heard that his spiritual weapon is extremely powerful. He can easily fight second-tier spiritual masters, even if he's a higher-tier cultivator. What if he decides to assassinate you?"

"Don't worry, he has already missed the best opportunity. Now that I'm under so much scrutiny, he wouldn't dare to do anything underhanded again."

Moreover, as a second son, Yan Xujia cannot afford to make too many mistakes if he wants to win a title.

However, we cannot let our guard down.

Despite comforting Mushroom in this way, Xia Feng remained vigilant. It seemed that obtaining the Boundless Stone and entering the Evil Dragon Space again was now an urgent matter.

Mu Qingtong's genius and the immortality of the Demon Heart alone are not enough. Only by successfully awakening the spiritual artifact and adding another trump card can he feel more secure.

Before Mushroom could ask anything else, Xia Feng stood up and said, "Are you still going to play games? If you're not, I'm going home."

Mushroom's attention was immediately drawn to it, and with excitement in its eyes, it quickly stood up and pushed Xia Feng's shoulder, "Come on, come on! You haven't spent time with me in so long!"

Mushroom is a homebody; she enjoys any form of entertainment that doesn't require her to go out, such as games, novels, and movies.

And I'm the kind of person who's all talk and no action online, but a total homebody in real life.

It was also because of her social anxiety and somewhat withdrawn and weak personality that she had few real-life friends growing up. She finally managed to catch Xia Feng after a heroic rescue, so naturally she dragged Xia Feng to play duo queue every day.

We arrived at Mushroom's house.

Her home is quite far from the school; it's a detached villa. Yes, that's right, the kind of luxurious villa with a garden, swimming pool, bar area, spa, gym, and other facilities.

She lived alone in the empty house.

It looks deserted no matter how you look at it.

According to Mushroom herself, these were all legacies left to her by her mother, but she didn't go into details about anything else.

Xia Feng didn't ask her where her father had gone, after all, it was a sad thing for her.

That's obvious; Mushroom is a real little rich girl.

Otherwise, they wouldn't just skip an expensive course that costs 30 yuan per semester.

"Maple, really, if you're willing to dress as a woman, I can give you money." Mushroom, wearing a bear-patterned pajama, sat cross-legged on the sofa, her delicate face beneath her light green, slightly wavy hair earnest and sincere.

I wouldn't even take Freya's money, let alone yours? You wish! Xia Feng ignored her and pulled out a VR online fighting game called "Star God Agent" from the game box.

"You're playing this, right?"

"Yes, yes, this is it!"

Upon entering the game interface, Mushroom quickly put on the gaming headset, excitedly waving his little fist: "Just wait, this time I'm going to beat your Moon Goddess Agent to a pulp!"

The game Star God Agent is adapted from the legend of the gods.

According to legend, dozens of gods exist in this world. They exist eternally in a different space-time called the Star Realm, and are therefore known as the Star Gods.

The Black Moon Goddess worshipped by the Black Moon Church is one of the Star Gods.

The so-called Star God's Agent refers to a human being who is favored and blessed by the Star God, and is able to communicate with the Star God and act on the Star God's will.

The various Vatican authorities refer to such people as messengers of God, holy sons, or holy daughters.

This is why the Black Moon Church attaches such importance to the competition for the title of Holy Maiden.

Once a prospective saintess masters the Moon Goddess's domain and successfully gains the favor of the Black Moon Goddess, in a sense, her status will be comparable to that of the Pope.

"Pegasus Meteor Fist! Die, you bastard!!"

Mushroom became the Elemental Star God's proxy, or Elemental God Proxy for short, and rode directly on Xia Feng's body, unleashing a crushing barrage of attacks.

*
I played games all night until the afternoon of the next day.

[Overnight, you have further analyzed the three-body-shaped spirit particle structure of the C-rank spirit garment 'Three-Tail'—39%]

Xia Feng groggily opened his eyes, twisting his aching shoulders as he recalled the countless pieces of knowledge that had suddenly appeared in his mind.

"So this is what a C-rank spirit garment is? Pretty simple, huh?"

He yawned, got up, and stretched.

[Having killed three adult males, you further refined your killing skills and backstab techniques.]

"!" Xia Feng's yawning was frozen in mid-air. He swallowed hard, his shoulders relaxed, and he exhaled.

Small problems, all small problems.

Killing a few people is nothing, after all, she's a world-destroying witch, very much like a beaver. Xia Feng calmly nodded and went to the open kitchen to start making dinner.

First, wash, peel, and chop the garlic.

Pick up the kitchen knife.

[Your decapitation skills have been greatly improved by perfectly severing the head of a middle-aged woman.]

The cleaver hovered in mid-air. He stiffly turned his neck to look at the blindingly bright sun on the horizon outside the window, a chill running through him. What on earth was this world-destroying witch doing?!

He suddenly remembered his nonchalant and disrespectful attitude towards Mu Shen yesterday, and wondered if he was already close to death.
"Goddess Mu, do you think I still have a chance?" Xia Feng felt he needed to prepare a plan to deal with Mu Qingtong's sneak attack.

Although the two were evenly matched in strength, Mu Qingtong was far more cunning than him.

"No, we need to go to the trading point beforehand to scout out the situation."

Xia Feng put down the knife, wiped his hands, and walked straight out.

"Hey, where are you going?" Mushroom sat up groggily.

"You can continue sleeping. I'll come and cook for you later."

Xia Feng stopped in his tracks, went back inside to grab his knife and psionic grenade, and then rushed out the door.
