"Thump!"
Xing threw the bat aside and, without hesitation, dropped to the ground in full view of everyone to hug Lin Tian's leg, looking up at him with a pitiful expression.
"Hee hee hee... hee... hee?"
The Witch, who had just turned transparent and vanished, suddenly emerged and witnessed this scene. Her original snickering gradually turned into confusion. Why was this human, who had just emanated an aura of death, suddenly prostrating herself at the feet of another human male?
The Witch used her turbid eyes to carefully size up this group that had suddenly appeared. A few of them had auras slightly stronger than ordinary people, but that male was obviously just a normal person. Why was the female she had turned into an animal so... afraid of that male?
Just as the Witch was carefully sizing up Lin Tian, as if sensing her gaze, Lin Tian shifted his eyes away from Xing and looked toward the Witch's location.
Coincidentally, the Witch's gaze and Lin Tian's gaze met. And with just this one look, the hair on the Witch's body stood on end.
"What is this?"
Watching her body begin to tremble uncontrollably, alarm bells rang loudly in the Witch's heart. This male was definitely not simple, or at least not as ordinary as he appeared on the surface!
She had thought he was just a regular person, but he turned out to be a dragon playing the pig to eat the tiger! This country was indeed as the rumors said; one could not underestimate any passerby!
The Witch's figure gradually turned transparent; she was already preparing to flee. The female who could swing a bat was already headache enough, and now a male with unknown strength had suddenly appeared. This mission was completely botched.
It seemed that after returning this time, she wouldn't be able to avoid being severely punished by that adult.
Thinking of that adult's ruthlessness and cruelty, the Witch shuddered without cold. However, compared to physical pain, her little life was more important.
Recalling the three phantom images she had just seen, the Witch felt the relief of surviving a disaster. Fortunately, that male didn't seem to plan on lowering himself to her level; he only glanced at her before looking away. Otherwise, she was really afraid she would meet her end here today. This was her first mission, after all!
Just as the Witch was letting her imagination run wild, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"Why haven't I left this place yet?"
Looking at the surrounding scene, the Witch's gaze gradually became grave. Something was wrong! Very wrong!
This move of hers had worked every single time in the past; why would it suddenly fail now?
"Impossible! Turn! Turn! Turn... Why! Why isn't it working!"
The Witch attempted it multiple times, but sadly discovered that even if she exhausted all the magic power in her body, she could only remain in place. Her figure even became increasingly solid.
"Moshi moshi, are you okay?"
At this moment, a female voice drifted over. Hearing this voice, the anxious Witch finally realized she had been surrounded by that group of people. And standing directly in front of her was that human male.
"Why did you want me to say that? Couldn't I just talk to her directly?"
Shinobu Kocho looked at Lin Tian with some confusion. Saying that just now wasn't her hobby; it was entirely out of compliance with Lin Tian's request. Although she didn't know why, she obediently did as told. It was just saying a phrase, after all.
"Mm, purely a personal hobby. Don't be too confused; just making up for a missed opportunity from the original work."
"You people! Who exactly are you?! This world has clearly just begun its Spiritual Recovery; how could a primate creature cultivate to this level of strength!"
Hearing the Witch's words, Lin Tian immediately looked at her with interest.
"Oh! You know quite a lot. Listening to you, do you know what's going on with this world's Spiritual Recovery?"
