Chapter 793: The Mystery of the Warlock’s Downfall (1)

Shen Yanxiao invited Ye Qing and Yun Qi to her mansion.
“Thank you, teachers, for your help during this period of time.” Shen Yanxiao felt apologetic to her teachers since she had left in a hurry, causing her to not have the time to explain the situation in Sun Never Sets to them. But, she felt glad that when she had returned, she saw that the citizens in Sun Never Sets had all recovered their health. It was apparent that Ye Qing and Yun Qi had contributed a lot to that.
During that period of time, both of them must have sacrificed a lot for the citizens in Sun Never Sets.
Ye Qing and Yun Qi both smiled appreciatively at Shen Yanxiao. Shen Yanxiao had always been respectful towards them. Even when she had just returned from a long journey, she still had come to thank them.
“It doesn’t matter. However, when Yun Qi and I were nursing the citizens here to health, we noticed some abnormalities,” Ye Qing said with a frown.
“What abnormalities?” Shen Yanxiao was surprised.
Ye Qing glanced at Yun Qi to signal him to explain further. By this time, the two respected elders had established a friendly relationship with each other.
Yun Qi sighed deeply and said, “Let me explain. After Ye Qing and I arrived here the other day, we extracted a few drops of water from the wells around the city to examine it. From our examination, we found out that the water had copious amounts of detrimental potions at the Great Herbalist level. Furthermore, from a deeper investigation, we found out that there were hints of a type of curse called ‘Third Combination Curse’.”
“Third Combination Curse?” Shen Yanxiao was confused. She had been a warlock for so long, but she had never heard that type of curse before.
“It is a type of curse that only a Second-Class Summoner would know. Most of the curses that you have learned must be used in direct contact with the opponent, or they be used when they are within your attack range, or by attaching it to your weapon, allowing it to persist for a short period of time. On the other hand, Third Combination Curses is a type of curse that can last on a particular item for a long time, up to thousands of years. And after it is cast, its power will continue to persist and not degenerate. Additionally, it is very deadly because as soon as anyone who touches it they will immediately be cursed.”
Shen Yanxiao pursed her lips. She had cast a curse on an arrow before, but it only lasted for a few seconds. A curse that could last thousands of years on an item …
It was a scary thought.
“Teacher, are you saying that someone had placed a curse in those wells?”
Yun Qi nodded and his eyes darkened. He furrowed his eyebrows in deep thought.
“Before Warlocks declined, there were five Second-Class Summoners. Two of them were just ordinary Summoners, and the other two were Great Summoners just like me. Moreover, after Warlocks suffered a decline, it was almost impossible for another Summoner to appear again. Even ordinary warlocks were almost extinct. Thus, only the five of us have the ability to cast such a curse. ”
According to Yun Qi, there were only four Warlocks, except for him, in the Brilliance Continent who could accomplish this feat.
“Teacher, do you know where those four people are?” Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes. She had a feeling that Fantasy Devil City had something to do with the catastrophe that befell on her citizens.
Yun Qi shook his head and forced a smile. “After the incident, the four countries joined hands and eradicated Warlocks from the continent. One of the Summoners had even died in the process, and the other three were not faring any better. If I had not obtained the Moonlight Necklace by chance, I would not have had the luck to escape the calamity either.”
“What exactly happened back then? Why were Warlocks exterminated on a large scale?” Shen Yanxiao did not know much about what had happened to Warlocks back then. She had only heard Tang Nazhi mention it a few times. However, once she asked him to explain it in detail, he was not able to answer her.
