"Although it's a bit like cheating, since you also bullied the little witch by relying on your status as the middle witch, it can be considered that they cancel each other out."
Li Hui calmly dodged Hera's spell, sighed softly, and his attitude changed from stern to indifferent.
Like a god high above the heavens, with no other emotions in his eyes, only cold truth.
Hera also stopped what she was doing, not because she didn't want to continue her sneak attack, but because her instincts were warning her.
She must be extremely vigilant in this state of affairs for Li Hui to have any chance of survival.
Even a minor spell that only requires a slight mental control can lead to utter destruction.
"Is this some kind of joke?" Hera stared at Li Hui with a serious expression, her killing intent intensifying.
“In a way, you’re not the only one who can rely on the talent you had before becoming a witch,” Li Hui said.
She waved her hand gently, and the surrounding wind suddenly stopped—no, even the air itself seemed to freeze, converging into long spears that grew larger and larger.
“Although I don’t really want to use these talents that I should have lost, but…” Li Hui’s eyes grew calmer, and the atmosphere around him grew colder.
“Some things have long transcended instinct, memory, and even the concept of existence.”
"They are so attached to those who deliberately ignore their existence that they are obsessed with them."
Li Hui parted her lips slightly, but countless phantoms flashed more clearly in her mind, as if she were looking at the memories of another person who was exactly the same as her, but had no connection with her.
This is her past before she became a witch.
As these memories continue to return, something that has always been buried within Li Hui is gradually awakened, making her feel increasingly unreal.
Jiang Kehan suddenly felt uneasy. She clenched her fists. Even though Li Hui's figure was so conspicuous in her eyes, he seemed even more—out of this world.
This sixth sense, which could be described as an illusion, made her feel somewhat dazed, as if she had returned to the time when she first met Li Hui, and that subtle distance between them.
No!
Jiang Kehan shouted in her heart, clenched her teeth involuntarily, and reached out her hand towards Li Hui.
Seemingly noticing her worry, Li Hui in the dueling arena suddenly turned his head, smiled slightly in her direction, and said with a slight movement of his lips: Don't be afraid, I'm here.
As if to say that Jiang Kehan's stubborn efforts were not in vain, Li Hui's originally indifferent eyes became lively, and she winked at her mischievously.
This made Jiang Kehan laugh, and she withdrew her hand and placed it on her chest, her unease dissipating somewhat.
However, she became increasingly determined to become the Great Witch quickly, so that she could crush all the things that caused her unease.
Jiang Kehan has learned that if she wants to protect everything, she can only rely on herself, not on the other person's inner change.
As long as she's strong enough, the basement will never be short of people.
Jiang Kehan wasn't the only one feeling tense; Hera, inside the dueling arena, sensed something was wrong and resolutely decided to strike first.
“I underestimated you.” Hera took a deep breath, her double pupils suddenly contracting, like overlapping planets turning into black and white.
"However... the Desolate Dragon Witch is not that simple either."
She took a deep breath, her massive body blocking out the sky and the sun, leaving behind a chilling, biting cold. She stretched out her long, slender dragon neck and swayed as she looked down at Li Hui.
"The power that had nowhere to go became the opportunity to transcend stages, allowing the Desolate Dragon Witch to skip the metamorphosis period and directly become a Middle Witch."
"But what truly allows the Wild Dragon species to survive is not these so-called powers, but the fighting spirit and roars accumulated from countless battles."
"They will remember my existence and transform into a truth that transcends ordinary magic!"
"Let me show you what I'm made of." Hera's voice was like thunder from the heavens, causing the surrounding meteorites to tremble violently.
Her tone grew increasingly unrestrained, yet it carried an overwhelming domineering aura, unleashing a roar that shook time and space, a roar that condensed countless battles.
"What is the Dragon's Words and Imperial Edicts!"
"The Golden Tomb!"
The magic began to vibrate, the roar grew louder and louder, and finally seemed to transcend the constraints of the world. After it suddenly shattered, it was the silent end.
The great way is silent.
The surrounding rules also seemed to have changed; matter began to transform its concept, and lifeless gold climbed up every corner, while the once surging meteorites came to a complete standstill.
It was as if it were dead. Although this description is ridiculous when applied to inanimate objects, it perfectly captures the intuition one has when seeing them.
Hera flapped her exaggerated wings, her eyes wide with rage, and with her dragon head and body, she swooped down toward Li Hui, like an epitaph handed to the enemy in countless battles, announcing the arrival of death.
As Li Hui felt his body turning to gold, he looked up without changing his expression and gazed at Hera, who had transformed into a shooting star in the night sky, falling towards him.
She was certain that this move had significant limitations; at the very least, it could only be used when Hera was in a life-or-death situation.
Otherwise, given the opponent's ruthless nature, the battle would have ended long ago.
"Is this what they call a Desolate Dragon? It even sees itself as an enemy, and even its ultimate move requires approval from its own subconscious before it can be used."
Li Hui murmured something, but her hands didn't stop moving.
The invisible giant spear, carrying lightning, was raised towards Hera, bursting forth with unexpected vitality.
The talent she possessed, or rather, the eternal authority, was also the culprit that led her to become a witch—rebirth.
As the Origin Witch, this shared magical characteristic has been restored, causing the upper limit of her magic power, which had been suppressed by Annihilation, to increase dramatically.
Even Nuoxi, who is also an Origin Witch, can easily reach more than 500 magic power. If it weren't for the suppression of Annihilation, why would Li Hui be troubled by the amount of magic power?
The long-accumulated spring finally moved the boulder above it, gushing out its anger and vitality, symbolizing the "human" side of nature.
Although Li Hui still wouldn't be able to surpass the Little Witch stage's limitations after the event, at this point, the excess magic power was enough for her to possess, serving as a one-time power experience card!
The dueling arena seemed to be torn apart by a beam of white light, with deathly silence and vitality colliding violently, and roars and indifference becoming even more pronounced.
They looked at each other, each with their own reasons for never admitting defeat!
boom……
The surrounding space began to shatter, and the host, his lips twitching, used magic to maintain the stability of the dueling arena's barrier. These two freaks had directly destroyed the dueling arena used by the little witch.
And the result is obvious.
Hera held her dragon head high, like a magnificent sculpture under the midday sun, but her eyes were already vacant.
Li Hui, who had regained her humanity, clutched her lower back, collapsed quietly to the ground, and closed her eyes.
As she felt the golden transformation of her body dissipate, she was unexpectedly somewhat blank-headed.
The so-called victory didn't seem to matter that much to Li Hui at this moment, even though she had already won.
All she knew was that she had taken a step, a small one, but one that would determine the direction of her life.
She was captivated by the beauty of the world and wanted to stay for the first time.
I want to keep some for myself.
Chapter 283 I Want to Cover Your Face
When Li Hui opened her eyes again, she had been teleported back to the preparation area, where she was greeted by Jiang Kehan, who rushed towards her and hugged her tightly.
The others looked at them with amusement, exchanged glances, whistled, and then chatted as they moved on to other places, giving the two of them space.
"We won!" Jiang Kehan was excited. Even though she was hugging Li Hui, she couldn't help but jump up and down, lifting him up a couple of steps with her bright smile.
Li Hui seemed to realize something. A smile appeared on her originally peaceful face. She rubbed Jiang Kehan's head with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
"Yes, we won." Li Hui's hand moved down Jiang Kehan's silky hair until it covered Jiang Kehan's cheek.
"But could you hold me a little looser? I feel like if you were holding a piece of iron, you would have split it in two."
Li Hui muttered a slight complaint, but her eyes gradually became serious, as if she had seen a treasure worth protecting for a lifetime.
"Relax, Kehan, I won't disappear. I promised you, remember?"
Jiang Kehan then realized that she had used a lot of force, so she quickly let go and tried to get away with it by saying something cute.
"Hey, who told you... to look so scary back then, making me so anxious and uncertain."
"It's like it could disappear at any moment!"
Jiang Kehan puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction, looked up and met Li Hui's gaze, and said, "Why didn't you tell me beforehand? It would have been better if I had been mentally prepared."
Because I want to see you look so cute... That's what Li Hui originally wanted to say to tease Jiang Kehan.
After all, she was a rather "mischievous" person who enjoyed herself, especially since the other party was Jiang Kehan, whom she found adorable no matter what.
However, there are some things that can be said and the other party won't mind, but these are not the answers that should be given at this moment.
"Because I love you, I chose to keep it a secret. I didn't want you to worry. What do you think of that reason?" Li Hui smoothed down Jiang Kehan's downturned lips with his fingers, making the other person's expression gradually turn surprised.
Huh?!
Jiang Kehan was a little confused. The witch's ears were very sharp, and Li Hui's voice was at a normal volume. She felt that she couldn't have misheard.
That's precisely why she was bewildered.
Li Hui actually said he loved her?
Jiang Kehan's heart skipped a beat, but she looked at Li Hui suspiciously and said, "Were you under too much pressure fighting Hera and lost your mind?"
"Why are you suddenly trying to tease me with this excuse?"
It wasn't that Jiang Kehan didn't believe Li Hui loved her; she loved him in return.
But she also understood the gentle Li Hui in front of her. He always had a sense of responsibility and didn't make promises easily. In Li Hui's heart, love was mutual.
Li Hui knew deeply that she couldn't give such love now, her future was still uncertain, she couldn't give any definite guarantee, and she might even disappear from Jiang Kehan's sight at any time.
Therefore, Li Hui has been deliberately avoiding using the word "love" to describe the relationship between the two, let alone such a direct confession.
Naturally, Jiang Kehan did not show the shyness that Li Hui had imagined, but instead expressed slight doubt.
This made Li Hui laugh a little, unsure whether she should comment on where their old married couple's attitude came from.
Sure enough, when she invited Jiang Kehan to live with her, she had already dug a pit for herself, and she dug it herself and jumped into it.
It really made her feel... fortunate.
Li Hui's smile grew even gentler as she pulled Jiang Kehan's cheek, making it appear as if she were smiling.
"What, don't you love me? I'm heartbroken." She looked at Jiang Kehan with feigned sadness, but the smile on her lips remained unchanged.
"There's no other reason, and there's no need for another reason. I just suddenly realized something." Li Hui toned down his opportunistic attitude and stared intently into Jiang Kehan's eyes.
At that moment, they only had eyes for each other.
"Love is not something that puts pressure on ourselves and our partners, but something that helps us overcome difficulties together."
