Chapter 287 The Excited Ghost Woman
But Zhao Yulin could never have imagined that the person standing beside him was not his wife Jiang Feng, but a ghost woman who had been impersonated by the Dunhuang Garrison for many years!
Just then, a disheveled-looking Mu Dao entered the attic. Upon seeing him, Zhao Yulin quickly asked, "Brother Mu, are you alright?"
"Not bad. This Flame Witch won't be arrogant for long. Once the Ice and Snow Sealing Demon Formation is fully activated, we can completely freeze her within the ice crystal space," Mu Dao said coldly.
"That's wonderful, Brother Mu. Once this matter is settled, I, Zhao Yulin, will certainly repay you handsomely," Zhao Yulin said with a smile.
Mu Dao glanced at Zhao Yulin, who was all smiles, and then said calmly, "Don't be too happy yet. Even if the Ice and Snow Sealing Demon Formation really does seal it, it will only delay it for a while. I found that she is very strong in my fight with her just now."
"When she attacks, she uses Calamity Flame, while when she defends, she uses Dark Flame. Both flames are extremely domineering and can even be compared to Soul-level flames. Even if we freeze her, we can only suppress her Calamity Flame at most, making it difficult for her to attack us. However, the Dark Flame around her will not dissipate and will form a domain that ordinary people cannot approach."
"So even if we freeze her, it will be difficult to kill her with that Dark Flame Domain. Wouldn't our carefully prepared Cold Iron Spikes be useless then?" Zhao Yulin's smile froze completely after hearing Mu Dao's words.
"Yes, Dark Flame is even more domineering than Calamity Flame; even I find it difficult to get close to it," Mu Dao sighed.
Zhao Yulin's expression quickly turned serious. For a moment, she couldn't think of any way to break Jiang Feng's Dark Flame Domain. The reason why higher beings are strong is because they have unique domains that mages can't attack. The Silver Sky Lord and the Totem Serpent were like this. It was precisely because they possessed these unique domains that higher beings were able to dominate a region outside the Security Realm.
Zhao Yulin hadn't expected the Flame Witch guarding the Fire Calamity Fruit to be so strong, but so what? He was willing to pay any price to keep the Fire Calamity Fruit; his wife, Jiang Feng, needed the fruit to restore her appearance.
He also needs the Fire Calamity Fruit to synthesize a Soul-level Fire Seed. In that case, Zhao Yulin could become the most influential elder or even the head of the Zhao family in the Demon Capital. He was unwilling to obey his younger brothers, and even less willing to enjoy his old age in this remote town.
Human desires are never satisfied. When desires are fully unleashed, reason becomes extremely fragile, just like Zhao Yulin is today.
"Mr. Mu, you don't need to worry about that. As long as you can freeze the Flame Witch, I will have a way to kill her!" Just then, the ghost woman wrapped in white cloth spoke up.
What Zhao Yulin and Mu Dao didn't notice was that beneath the white cloth, a sinister glint was flashing in her deep-set eyes.
As the Ice and Snow Sealing Array was reactivated by eight high-level ice mages, heavy snow fell from the sky once again. Although the flames burning on the ground were suppressed, they were not completely extinguished, and ice walls began to form continuously.
Soon, five huge ice walls enveloped a hundred meters around Jiang Feng, and these ice walls were now so thick that they were difficult to break through easily.
Despite being trapped in the space engulfed in flames, Jiang Feng remained calm. Instead, she surveyed the manor, which was mostly consumed by fire. Soon, she spotted eight high-level mages continuously channeling magical energy into the grand formation in the central courtyard.
They are surrounded by countless stars that connect to form magnificent star trails, and one after another, the beautiful star maps echo each other. Finally, the star trails intertwine to form a huge icy constellation.
This constellation is not an ordinary ice-type constellation, but is constructed from eight special ice-type star maps. Although it is still a high-level magic, its power is several times stronger than ordinary high-level ice magic.
"whisper!!"
After discovering the source of the ice wall, Jiang Feng immediately let out a piercing scream.
Immediately, Jiang Feng raised her hand and grabbed at the nearest house. After the house floated in mid-air, Jiang Feng blew a breath at it, and the house instantly burst into flames. Under Jiang Feng's control, the burning house crashed directly towards the eight mages who were controlling the formation.
Seeing Jiang Feng's actions from the attic, Zhao Yulin suddenly burst into laughter: "Witch, you don't really think I was unprepared, do you?"
Jiang Feng did not stop what she was doing, but just as the house was about to hit the eight mages, it suddenly exploded in mid-air and turned into countless fire fragments that flew everywhere.
A faint outline could be seen near the eight ice mages, forming an arc-shaped barrier that easily blocked both the spreading sea of fire and the attacks flying towards them. This was Zhao Yulin's backup plan.
"Click, click, click!!"
The ice walls solidified faster and faster, and finally, after the three ice walls were formed, they completely blocked Jiang Feng's escape route.
The calamity flames emanating from her body were suppressed into a space of only ten cubic meters, and the icy aura continued to invade her body. In the past, her flames would never have been eroded by the cold air of the ice crystal space.
However, she has now been severely injured by the Cold Iron Thorn, her strength has been greatly weakened, and the Cold Poison is corroding her Calamity Flame.
As the cold air eroded the flames released by Jiang Feng, they grew weaker and weaker until they were finally extinguished completely.
Seeing the tribulation flames released by Jiang Feng extinguished, Zhao Yulin excitedly shouted, "It's a success!!"
Mu Dao also breathed a sigh of relief, while the eight mages who provided magic energy to the Ice and Snow Sealing Demon Formation were either exhausted or unconscious, lying haphazardly and completely incapacitated.
"The Cold Iron Spikes worked!!" the ghost woman exclaimed ecstatically.
"I've done what I was supposed to do. Now it's up to you two," Mu Dao said, looking at Zhao Yulin and the ghost woman.
Zhao Yulin nodded, then his gaze fell on the ghost woman who was wrapped in white cloth. He was very curious about what method the ghost woman had to break the dark flames around Jiang Feng, since that was a domain unique to high-level demons.
The ghost woman, unconcerned by Zhao Yulin's curious gaze, turned to Chen Ying beside her and said, "Chen Ying, do you remember the demon-slaying tool I gave you—the Breaking Blade?"
Chen Ying nodded, and then heard the ghost woman continue, "Po Mie can activate the cold poison of the Cold Iron Thorn, turning it into a deadly poison that can threaten the Flame Witch's life. As long as you stab Po Mie into the Flame Witch's body, she will be close to death."
Chen Ying looked at her 'mother' in astonishment. She didn't understand why her 'mother' would ask her to do this. Had she forgotten that she might have been resented for ambushing the Flame Witch?
However, the ghost woman was completely wrapped in white cloth, so Chenying could not see the expression on this so-called 'mother's' face.
"Are you crazy?! She's our daughter! How can you let her go?!" Zhao Yulin shouted.
The ghost woman waved her hand and said calmly, "Don't worry, I definitely won't let your daughter take any risks."
"But I..." Chen Ying hesitated after thinking about Jiang Feng's terrifying strength, unsure whether to do as the ghost woman said.
"Chenying, listen to me, go quickly! The Ice Crystal Space of the Frozen Flame Witch won't last long. Do you want to see all of us here killed by her?"
"Don't worry, as long as you do as I say, nothing will happen. Even if you kill her, your friends won't die, and I can recover my health with the Fire Calamity Fruit. Your father can even move up a notch in the family with the Fire Calamity Fruit." The ghost woman said excitedly, and she even used her weak mental power to persuade Chen Ying.
