The Rise of the Witch

A war witch, of course, needs to fight; only through battle can one truly understand oneself.

Although the battle ended in the blink of an eye, it involved not only physical strength but also intelligence. However, Xing Yang still managed to grasp a clue from his instinctive actions.

His feet can tread on invisible waters, his hands can grasp intangible spirits, his stomach can digest all things, and his skin can sense the outside world...

Of course, most importantly, since he became the witch queen, he has naturally developed a supernatural ability to control his own strength and power.

For example, walking on water without breaking it is possible. With just a tiny bit of tension on the water surface, he can walk as if on flat ground and even lift thousands of kilograms of weight. This is a wonderful application of strength. If we go a step further, could we walk on air?

This is his true supernatural power, not "copper head and iron bones," which are merely inherent enhancements of his body.

Thus, Bai Wenjing's supernatural power can be called "Shaking Mountains and Earth," meaning that he is powerful and his strength is unpredictable.

While sheer strength is formidable, a single punch can at most create a hole in a mountain. Only through extraordinary application of power can one disperse the force of a punch throughout the entire mountain, thus achieving the effect of "shaking the mountain." Gonggong's ability to knock down Buzhou Mountain was probably due to an advanced version of this supernatural power.

The supernatural power of the Azure Pattern Realm can be called "Driving Spirits and Connecting with the Netherworld," which means that his witch body can directly interfere with the formless and intangible "spirit," and this is also a sign that the spirituality of his body is getting stronger and stronger.

The supernatural power is "shaking mountains and earth" and "driving away spirits and spirits"!

He needs more battles to gain a deeper understanding of his two supernatural powers.

……

Xing Yang was shirtless, with a tattered cloth wrapped around his waist as an apron... This image looked somewhat familiar. Did he have to destroy a set of clothes every time he revealed his witch form?

Carrying one in each hand, Xing Yang darted and leaped through the forest, using tree trunks as a means of transportation, and soon emerged from the dense woods.

The group of people waiting outside quickly surrounded them, asking questions all at once.

These people are all mortals who are honing their skills and strength. Entering the dense forest would only be a hindrance, and they might even be killed by a single bite from a poisonous snake. So they stay outside.

Xing Yang handed the men over to them, saying, "The two inspectors are still alive, but they've been poisoned. They should be able to hold on for a few more days."

He could sense that the two people's blood and qi had slowed down considerably. However, their blood and qi were stronger than that of ordinary people. At the current rate of blood and qi flow, it would take at least three to five days for it to completely stop.

Someone quickly said, "It's alright, the department has professional healers, and if all else fails, you can seek help from a shaman..."

Xing Yang asked curiously, "Does the department also have shamans?"

One of them seemed to have some medical knowledge. After examining the two men, he said, "There is a sorcerer in Qingzhou who is on a temporary assignment in the department. The Demon Suppression Department can give priority to treating them. However, the two inspectors are not seriously poisoned, so the doctors in the department can handle it."

Xing Yang nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you."

The man hesitated for a moment, then pressed on, "Inspector Xing, where is True Lord Blackwater?"

Xing Yang didn't turn his head and said, "He escaped."

Unable to explain that he had eaten Blackwater True Lord, he could only offer this perfunctory explanation.

Anyway, the Blackwater True Lord will not appear again.

……

In just one year, the atmosphere in Black Bear Village has completely changed.

I used to think the place was lifeless. Although the villagers were alive, they had nothing to do. Now, it's become much more lively and fulfilling, and the whole village is full of vitality.

The surrounding area had many more fertile fields, and tall waterwheels had been erected along the riverbank. The village was filled with the sounds of roosters crowing and ducks quacking, villagers hurried to and fro, and smoke rose from chimneys at every turn...

This is all thanks to Mi Xiaoling.

That little girl who always hid in her room but kept shouting that she wanted to become emperor was no longer just talking; even Xing Yang admired her for her actions.

In the courtyard, Mi Xiaoling no longer wore that elaborate outfit; she wore only a simple dress and the same wooden mask on her head. She was lying on the table, writing and drawing with a pen.

Sister Qing also sat down to help.

Upon seeing Xing Yang enter, Mi Xiaoling quickly called out, "Xiao Yang, come help! Qing-jie and I are overwhelmed!"

Xing Yang chuckled, sat down beside him, and asked, "What's going on here?"

Mi Xiaoling was somewhat excited and said, "I've calculated it, the village can collect taxes this year!"

Xing Yang asked curiously, "You've been the village chief for six years, and this is the first time you've collected taxes?"

Mi Xiaoling was a little embarrassed and said, "I used to support them all... Sigh, anyway, I've calculated that I can collect about twenty taels of tax... After paying it, I can keep a little over two taels!"

Xing Yang couldn't help but laugh: "Two taels? You eat over a hundred taels worth of food in one bite!"

Sister Qing said with a smile, "This is the first time Miss has ever seen money come back to her."

Mi Xiaoling felt ashamed and quickly changed the subject, saying, "The village has surplus grain, and we need to find someone to sell the chickens, ducks, and pigs we raise. We're too busy... Qingjie and I really can't handle it all. Don't laugh, aren't you going to help?"

Xing Yang shook his head and said, "You're already overwhelmed with just one village. What will you do when you become the mayor of Fangxiong Town, managing not only the town but also twelve other villages?"

Mi Xiaoling tilted her head, stared at Xing Yang, and said after a moment, "I understand. I never thought I'd be afraid of being eaten out of house and home... Sister Qing, please continue to provide meals, okay?"

Sister Qing nodded with a smile.

"No rush!"

Xing Yang straightened his expression and recounted his experience of slaying the demon, saying, "I not only swallowed the entire demon body, but also that round pill. I discovered it on the way back, and it seems to be having some indigestion..."

Mi Xiaoling listened quietly, and after a moment said, "With your digestive abilities, it's only a matter of time before you digest the Demon Lord's corpse. The key is that round pill... Seriously, you really dare to eat anything!"

Xing Yang shrugged helplessly and said, "After the witch appeared, my instincts were amplified. My instincts told me that I could eat it, so I swallowed it whole."

Mi Xiaoling pursed her lips and said, "That snake plundered the spirit of plants and trees and hastily condensed it into a pill. This process is somewhat similar to the alchemy of the human immortal path. Sister Qing knows more about this aspect."

Xing Yang looked at Qing Jie curiously: "Wow, Qing Jie is a hidden gem of a beauty!"

Sister Qing smiled and said, "The way of cooking and the way of alchemy have something in common, which is locking the spirit, locking the spirituality of the ingredients, and according to the different spiritualities, the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint is applied!"

The demon lord plundered the surrounding spiritual energy, roughly kneading it into a ball, completely ignoring the interactions between different spiritual entities. Even with the powerful physique of the demon race, consuming such a thing would cause immense damage to the individual…

At this point, Sister Qing gave Xing Yang a strange look, seemingly surprised that Xing Yang's physique was so strong that he was even above the demon race.

Xing Yang asked with some concern, "Will I be alright after eating that pill?"

"I don't know." Sister Qing sighed helplessly and said, "At least after the demon race unleashes this move, they will enter a weakened state for a short time. You are fine now, so you should not be injured again."

It just takes time to digest!

Xing Yang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good... By the way, I'm going to do a battle dance tonight, will Sister Qing come to watch?"

Qingjie's expression shifted slightly, and she nodded, saying, "Then thank you very much, young master."

Mi Xiaoling felt a little jealous: "War Witches are really convenient!"

Xing Yang comforted him, "With your prestige in Black Bear Village, you should be able to perform Nuo opera, right?"

Mi Xiaoling shook her head and said, "I progressed from red to purple stripes; my faith wasn't strong enough."

"Then you'd better get promoted quickly!"

Xing Yang left with that statement, then thought for a moment and asked, "I need more battles. Do you have any recommendations?"

Mi Xiaoling replied, "Then you should hurry up and get promoted. Once you become a captain, your responsibilities will be much greater."

Xing Yang: "..."
