Chapter 43: The future of destruction? Already destined
The two Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick stared at each other's masks in silence for a long time.
"Alright, alright, answer your question." Xia Feng finally gave in and looked at the man's body. "The Phantom is hidden in his left chest."
Through the evil demon's heart, Xia Feng could clearly sense the evil aura around him. Before, Huan E had the man's aura as a cover, making it impossible for him to locate him.
Now that the man was dead, the aura of the phantom evil was immediately exposed to his perception.
Squeak——
Mu Qingtong stabbed the tip of his long sword into the heart of the corpse and easily picked out a colorful insect only half the size of a finger.
The colorful insect had ferocious teeth on its head, and it twisted its body on the tip of the knife and hissed silently.
And in the middle of its body, there was a wide-open blood-red vertical pupil staring at Mu Qingtong in fear.
"A demonic beast, a rare species of phantom." Mu Qingtong handed the tip of the knife over. "Do you want it? Its blood has a water-based spirituality, making it suitable for advancement to the second level."
In order to advance to each stage of a spiritual master, in addition to reaching the spiritual pressure standard, one also needs to collect the corresponding spiritual materials.
For example, Xia Feng's spiritual attribute is water, and the spiritual materials required to advance to the second level are Lingxu grass, Huanye insect blood, and tail snake eyes.
Among them, the eyes of the tail snake are the most difficult to obtain, because most tail snakes have two eyes or three eyes.
The evil beasts are graded from one to nine eyes, with one eye being the lowest and nine eyes being the highest.
"No, I don't need it." Xia Feng waved his hand. "I didn't do much, you deserve the credit, so take it."
Mu Qingtong nodded, guessing that Xia Feng had already collected the blood of the phantom insects. It seemed that she had to speed up the process of collecting her own spiritual materials.
While thinking, Mu Qingtong did not kill the phantom insect immediately, but walked straight to the unconscious girl in white dress.
She stretched out her hand and placed her palm on the girl's forehead. The bracelet on her wrist, which was made of dark-colored stones, emitted a faint red glow.
"My power value is 58Aoc, which is still 2Aoc away from becoming a Disaster. What a pity." She shook her head and stood up.
Xia Feng was stunned for a moment: "What a pity?"
But before he could react, Mu Qingtong pulled out his knife and slashed it directly towards the neck of the girl in the white dress!
"!" Xia Feng was shocked and quickly grabbed her wrist, "Are you crazy?!"
Mu Qingtong frowned slightly and tilted her head in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Xia Feng blinked: "Did you want to kill this girl just now?"
"What else?" Mu Qingtong said calmly, as if discussing a lamb to be slaughtered. "Although it's still two AOCs short and the quality is a bit lower, whether it's a person with a calamity or a person with a calamity, their souls are excellent spiritual materials."
“.”
Mu Qingtong's words made Xia Feng suddenly realize that his understanding of Mu Qingtong was still too one-sided and subjective.
He should have understood long ago that the fact that this woman was called the World-Destroying Witch in the later period was not a name given to her casually by the world.
Perhaps it was her living environment, her extraordinary talent, and various other reasons that formed her character of indifference to life. When Xia Feng thought of this, he cursed in his heart. Out of consideration for his own interests, Mu Qingtong's indiscriminate killing behavior would do more harm than good to him.
So, although he is not a good person, in this fucked-up world where just a little sympathy for strangers can be praised as a saint, he feels that he needs to be a saint for once.
Of course, there is a more important point. Mu Qingtong is destined to be extraordinary in the future. Although it is unknown whether she will really become a world-destroying witch, it is more likely that she will become a silly-cup world-destroying villain or a world-destroying villain with ideas, goals and beliefs.
It all depends on today!
Well, okay, the main reason is that Xia Feng doesn't want the person he's syncing with to become an evil villain. It would do him no good at all, and it would be uncomfortable to get along with him.
So, we have to think of a way!
Find a way
Tsk, but how could he correct this witch's 'normal' values? Xia Feng sighed. After all, what was wrong with a world-destroying villain disregarding life?
Moreover, it feels a bit nosy to impose one's own values on others.
Mu Qingtong naturally noticed that Xia Feng's tone was not very good, and he seemed to disagree with her thoughts and actions.
But she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
She stood on the top of the mountain and looked down at the crowd. Those men, women, old people and children were as densely packed as ants. In her eyes, there was no difference between them.
But at this moment, Xia Feng, standing on the top of another mountain in the world, questioned her: "What do you want the soul of a sick person to do?"
"It's an experiment, of course." She said calmly.
"Then what?"
"Become stronger."
Hearing these two simple words, Xia Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly a good idea came to his mind. He raised the corners of his lips and said calmly:
"I have to say, Mu Qingtong, I look down on you."
Mu Qingtong was stunned: "W-what?"
"I say." Xia Feng took off the mask on his face and started to perform directly! With a look of disdain, "Mu Qingtong, I look down on you!"
“!!!!”
Following Xia Feng's words, the top floor fell into dead silence.
A dozen people around had dull eyes, still trapped in the illusion. Two men in black robes stood between the corpse and the unconscious girl, their robes fluttering in the wind.
No one had ever dared to look down on her like this! Mu Qingtong was silent for a moment, and then she took off her mask. Her golden eyes stared calmly at the man in front of her, "Reason?"
"Reason? You really don't understand, Mu Qingtong." Xia Feng's lips curled up sarcastically, "You have the talent of a strong man, but you don't have the mindset of a strong man. How ridiculous."
"It seems that I really misjudged him at the beginning."
Xia Feng shook his head, his tone deliberately filled with disappointment, "You are not a peerless genius, you are just a mediocre person with good reincarnation skills."
A strong mindset? Am I a mediocre person? Hearing the strong disdain in Xia Feng's tone, Mu Qingtong's breathing stagnated, and she felt inexplicably annoyed and irritated.
If someone else had mocked her like this, she would have ignored it, but Xia Feng was different.
He had the right to say that about her.
But that doesn't mean she has to agree. Mu Qingtong frowned and said in a slightly cold tone, "You said I was mediocre. Killing a weakling makes me mediocre?"
"Isn't it?"
"The coward draws his sword against the innocent, and the weak wields it against the weaker."
You know what, Xia Feng himself almost believed it. He was completely immersed in the play, and his sneer and mockery faded a little. He said calmly, "Mu Qingtong, only a cowardly and mediocre person like you would do anything to become stronger and bully those innocent people with no regard for their own strength. It's really, really disappointing."
Following Xia Feng's disappointed tone, Mu Qingtong's pale golden pupils slowly widened.
The cowardly draw their swords against the innocent, and the weak wield their swords against the weaker. She doesn't think this can define who is strong and who is weak.
but--
It's really disappointing. The last six calm and indifferent words echoed in her ears again and again. Mu Qingtong could hear that Xia Feng's tone of voice was completely sincere. He was not acting or anything, but was really disappointed in her.
Extremely disappointed that she turned out to be the weak one? She stared at the man in front of her with a slightly fixed gaze.
Xia Feng drooped his cold, dead eyes and looked at him expressionlessly.
There are many ways to collect the souls of the doomed. She chose to collect the soul of the girl in the white dress because it was convenient and easy to bully.
But does this mean that she lacks the mentality of a strong person? She doesn't think so.
Glancing at Xia Feng, she casually pulled the knife away from the girl's neck.
"Mr. Xia, you have a strange empathy that I don't have. Perhaps this is the reason why you and I are of the same kind, but there are huge differences between us." She said in a calm voice and sheathed the knife neatly.
Same kind? Xia Feng was stunned. What same kind? Although he didn't quite understand what Mu Qingtong meant, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she had given up on killing the girl.
He was actually very panicked and had never intended to really change Mu Qingtong's code of conduct, but now it was a great success to be able to get her to stop temporarily.
I can only say that I am worthy of it! However, Xia Feng also had a feeling that Mu Qingtong might become the Witch of Destruction in the future.
Already destined
