Chapter 254: The Famous Tower Witch

Thud! Thud!

Huang Xingming and Huang Wei plummeted directly onto the ruin-filled ground, following the motion of Lan Qingyou's outstretched hand.

Following two crisp cracking sounds, the ice encasing their bodies shattered.

After all, the frost from the Frost Potion merely froze people for a few seconds; it was incapable of turning a living person into a solid pillar of ice.

Even the enhanced Frost Magic Potion that Lan Qingyou had just used could not achieve such a feat.

At most, the duration was extended, freezing the extremities into icicles.

Specifically, the weaker parts like fingers, toes, ears, and noses.

"Ah! My ears! My fingers!"

"You damn bitch! Who are you?! Why are you doing this to us?!"

Both Huang Xingming and Huang Wei had instantly lost those extremities due to Lan Qingyou's rough handling just a moment ago.

"What the hell are you howling for! It doesn't even hurt!"

Listening to their wailing, Lan Qingyou curled her lips and shouted at the Huang family father and son.

It did not hurt.

It was true.

Because the wounds were frostbitten, their nerves were completely frozen, preventing any sensation of pain from being generated.

Therefore, Lan Qingyou was completely correct in saying it did not hurt.

'But they did just become crippled. Not even letting them scream a bit is a little overbearing... but I like it.'

Watching the show from the sidelines, Susi silently gave a thumbs-up in her heart to Lan Qingyou, the little Clan Head.

However, before she could finish her mental praise, the blame was suddenly thrust upon her.

"Susi! It is you again!"

Having looked at Lan Qingyou and realized he did not recognize her, Huang Xingming turned his head and roared at the familiar face of Susi.

After all, this woman was the one who had previously dismantled the otherworldly company he had been running.

And now she had brought someone to smash his Shelter?

Huang Xingming was on the verge of going mad.

It was simply outrageous!

This was absolutely intolerable!

Starting from scratch and building a large company capable of operating in a magical world was already difficult enough.

Having it ruined by a few Witches was bad enough, but now that he had finally found a new channel, she was back again?

"What kind of deep-seated grudge do I have with you Witches for you to treat us like this?! Is it materials?! Resources?! If that is what you want, just say it!"

"Huh?"

Susi, who had been ready to enjoy the show, never expected to catch this stray accusation. She immediately froze on the spot.

"This has nothing to do with me. This Witch is the one who has business with you; her way of knocking on the door was just a little extreme, that is all."

Faced with his accusations, Susi raised her hands and shrugged. She was not going to humor this guy.

While it was true they were familiar with each other, that familiarity did not imply anything good.

It was entirely a relationship built on beating each other up.

"This Witch?"

Reminded by Susi, Huang Xingming finally recovered from his extreme rage and looked at Lan Qingyou beside her.

This girl... had she said something earlier?

She seemed to know him.

"You are..."

Huang Xingming frowned slightly and glanced at his son, Huang Wei.

Huang Wei merely shook his head.

If she knew him and used such a violent method to call him out of his Shelter, she was probably here for revenge.

However... for his family to have developed into a financial syndicate, they had certainly offended many people.

To put it bluntly, they had done their fair share of wicked deeds.

Therefore, he truly could not recall who this girl was, floating in the air on a broomstick and wearing a classic Witch's outfit.

"It seems Chairman Huang has forgotten who I am. But it cannot be helped, after all, several years have passed. Since that is the case, let us put this matter aside for now."

Knowing exactly what kind of scum these two were, Lan Qingyou naturally did not expect them to remember her.

After all, she was just one of the many victims in their sinful lives.

So right now, rather than her own vendetta, her curiosity was focused more on something else.

They could not escape anyway. As for revenge, she could take her time. There was no rush.

"Then, can you tell me who these people are?"

Lan Qingyou floated over to Huang Xingming, retrieved a vial of Frost Magic Potion, and slowly poured it onto his forearm.

Having lost his toes and unable to even stand properly, Huang Xingming could only watch helplessly as his arm froze solid.

"Who exactly are you?! Why are you so vicious to us?!"

Fear dominated Huang Xingming's entire mind.

Even though the freezing meant he could not feel the slightest bit of pain.

Perhaps it was exactly this kind of silent interrogation, where he could not even experience the pain, that made him feel an even greater terror.

Smack!

Originally, Lan Qingyou had intended to slowly torture him, both physically and psychologically.

And in fact, that was exactly what she was doing.

But his foul mouth required a minor lesson.

It was only natural for him to scream.

However, Susi, who was watching from the sidelines, and the onlookers who had already thawed but could not move due to missing a few body parts, could not help but let their eyelids twitch at the sight.

It was often said that killing is but a nod of the head, but just thinking about Lan Qingyou's method of torture made them shudder.

Susi was fine, as she was just here for the spectacle.

But the people who could not even move right now, let alone run away, were in deep agony.

Lan Qingyou's earlier words basically stated outright that she was targeting them.

Worse yet, they did indeed possess secret identities that they could not reveal.

So... should they commit suicide to keep the secret?

Stop joking.

Who would not value their life after surviving for half a year in a legitimate devil's den like Kalim, where even the air itself contained magic?

Then it seemed they could only lie, otherwise they would be doomed today.

However, as if seeing through the thoughts of these clowns, Susi, who had been watching the drama unfold, suddenly chimed in.

"Oh right, I forgot to introduce her to you all. This Witch is none other than the famous Tower Witch, the founder and Clan Head of our Witch Clan, the Origin Witch Lan Qingyou. I believe everyone here should be more or less familiar with her, right?"

Gasp—

Tower Witch?!

This title alone was enough to make the pupils of everyone present contract in fear.

Furthermore, the fact that this Tower Witch was likely coming specifically for them made it even more alarming.

One had to understand that the Tower Witch was essentially a unique existence among the entire Transmigrator population.

Putting everything else aside, in terms of fame alone, the rest of the Transmigrators were one or two tiers lower compared to the Tower Witch.

Combined with the fact that the word 'Witch' inherently carried certain stereotypes, everyone had assumed that Lan Qingyou, the Tower Witch who created the Witch Clan's Potions, had to be some sort of 'old hag.'
