Chapter 249: Witch Race
Mo Chen sneered disdainfully at what Qi Yihan said.
He felt that Qi Yihan wasn’t going to protect Tang Li but keep an eye on him.
“He is indeed a human, full of jealousy.”
Qi Yihan shot him an angry look, not planning to argue with him. He then looked at Tang Li.
Tang Li nodded. She knew how capable Qi Yihan was.!!
With a teleportation talisman and an Invisibility Talisman, they arrived at a remote house at the corner of the village.
The house was overgrown with weeds. There was a very large scholar tree on the left side of the door. Under the scholar tree was a well, covered by a very thick stone. On the wall of the well, there was a pattern that made people’s hair stand on end.
Tang Li glanced at the pattern and said to Qi Yihan, “There’s a powerful evil spirit in the well. That pattern is used to suppress the evil spirit.”
However, this had nothing to do with them. Tang Li was just telling him to stay away. “I don’t think anyone will come here.”
Qi Yihan nodded and took out the controller to show Tang Li.
“The detector has already detected the overall layout of this village. Take a look.”
Tang Li examined the layout for a while and found something. She was surprised. “The layout of this village is quite strategic. It’s very good for defending intruders.”
Qi Yihan thought about it and asked, “Is this village immune to heavy weapons?”
“Very likely.”
If that was the case, even if the higher-ups sent troops, they could not do anything to them.
At the thought of this, their expressions turned solemn.
When the two of them had solemn expressions, Mo Chen, who caught up with them, laid on the stone on the well. He facepalmed, saying, “Don’t you humans hate the people of our Demon World? Look, the evil spirit here is all brought out by you guys.”
He casually tapped his finger on the stone. “This is a Soul Refining Technique that even the demons don’t dare to use. This technique can strip the soul of a living human and keep it in a container.”
“Do you think the soul you’re looking for is also locked in one of these?”
These words made Tang Li and Qi Yihan frown at the same time.
Tang Li quickly walked to the well and slapped a piece of talisman on the stone. She then placed her palm on the stone. In the next second, she quickly withdrew her hand as if her hand had been burnt.
Qi Yihan came up to her and held her hand, asking, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine,” Tang Li said. “I was just shocked by the intensity of the evil spirit down there. Luckily, Yuan Yuan’s soul isn’t there.”
With that, she took out a few more talismans and quickly threw them into the air. “Go and find Yuan Yuan’s soul.”
The talismans turned into transparent paper cranes and flew away.
Tang Li and Qi Yihan walked into the house and waited in the courtyard.
On the other side.
In the center of the village.
The buildings here were magnificent. There were shiny marble and jade floors everywhere, colorful murals, and countless antiques and ivory decorations.
A group of handsome men and beautiful women wearing bells on their wrists and ankles walked barefoot towards the end of the corridor.
At the end of the corridor was an especially large wall. On the wall, a large painting was hanging there that depicted the scene of the worship. During the worship, people would be slaughtered and blood would be drunk.
The handsome men and beautiful women kept their eyes away from the painting as they walked.
After passing the painting, they arrived at a hall.
The hall was actually built according to the design of the palace in the Empire.
Sitting at the top was a burly middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He was wearing a purple robe that revealed one of his arms. On his arm was a dragon tattoo, and on his neck was a large agate.
Beside him sat a woman who looked to be in her twenties. She had an aura that made people not dare to approach her. The woman was wearing an alien outfit and a ruby on her forehead.
At this moment, the man was chatting and laughing with the group of people sitting below while the woman remained quiet.
There were all kinds of people sitting in the two rows by the side. Some were in suits, some were in military uniforms, and there was actually a middle-aged man in a white coat.
When a group of handsome men and beautiful women came in to serve the dishes, the man at the top of the table smiled and picked up his wine glass. He said delightfully, “Everyone, we’ve been cooperating for more than half a year. Everyone has benefited greatly from this. Come, let me toast everyone. I hope that our cooperation will obtain greater benefits.”
Everyone picked up their glasses. A man kept his eyes on the breasts of the young girl who just came in to serve the wine while saying, “It’s because Mr. and Mrs. Alpha are visionary and willing to cooperate with us. Mr. and Mrs. Alpha, here is another piece of good news. We are very close to developing a new technology. Once that happens, we can make a lot of money with it.”
As he spoke, he made a number with his hand.
Alpha was obviously satisfied with the number and laughed. “Hahaha… Sure, sure. You guys can do research here for all you want. We’ll provide you with living humans and labs. Let’s get rich together.”
After drinking a glass of wine, the man dragged the young girl to sit on his lap and started groping her body.
Two more people did the same thing, but the rest of them were not interested.
At this moment, the woman sitting beside Mr. Alpha suddenly said something in his ear. Then she stood up and left.
The woman walked out of the banquet hall and stood there. A girl who looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old said to her, “Mother, we can’t find those people from the Imperial Capital.”
As soon as the young girl finished speaking, she was slapped hard on the face. The woman looked displeased. “What’s the use of keeping you around if you can’t even find some people?”
The girl lowered her head, looking guilty. “Mom, it’s my fault.”
The woman looked at the girl and her expression gradually softened. She raised her hand to touch the girl’s swollen face and said gently, “Sanna, I have only two kids. Gina’s health is deteriorating, so my hope is on you. We can’t terminate the bloodline of the witch race, we have to pass it down to the next generation.”
“Mother, I know. I’ll definitely find them.”
“Good girl. Now go.”
