Chapter 1569: Waste Utilization?

Xue Yi's narrative was a bit chaotic, but Su Xiao understood what was going on. Of these two immortal sisters, Moi Nora had strong combat power, but she wasn't the main body of immortality; the one who was truly immortal was Misfortune.

As long as Misfortune was in a living state, Moi Nora wouldn't die. Once Misfortune's body was destroyed and entered a dormant period, Moi Nora would lose her immortality.

Connecting this, Su Xiao basically understood what was going on. Immortality should be Misfortune's ability; she had simply applied this ability to her sister, Moi Nora.

If he wasn't mistaken, the attribute of Misfortune's incarnation was immortality. For a curse-type witch, this wasn't impossible.

These two sisters' abilities weren't inherited by the Moi family. From this point, Su Xiao could confirm that only Misfortune's ability was immortality; she had simply relied on her own ability to make her sister immortal.

Su Xiao had encountered similar abilities before; the homunculi in the Fullmetal Alchemist world possessed immortality, but they weren't as unsolvable as Misfortune, who could actually resurrect after half an hour of death.

Su Xiao didn't believe there was an ability for infinite resurrection. Being unable to kill Misfortune just meant he hadn't found the right method yet. Even if she was a witch, she had to follow the rules; nothing was absolutely immortal.

"Immortality, resurrection in about half an hour, that period is the opportunity to kill Moi Nora."

Su Xiao muttered to himself, and Xue Yi's expression gradually became serious.

"Hey, you aren't really planning to hunt Moi Nora, are you?"

Su Xiao looked confused. After he had talked for so long, it turned out this girl thought he was joking.

"Of course. There are some things I must obtain from Moi Nora."

"That is your goal?"

"You could understand it that way."

"Then good luck. If it were a few years ago, I would definitely have gone to the South with you, but unfortunately..."

Xue Yi smiled, lacking her usual jumpy and "goddess-crazy" personality.

"Anyway, I wish you success. I've told you all the intelligence I know, but... there is one thing I'm curious about."

Xue Yi looked at Su Xiao with burning eyes.

"What thing?"

"You... just how strong are you?"

Xue Yi's mouth curled up, and purple light flickered in her eyes.

Blood energy spread with Su Xiao as the center point. With a "crack," fine cracks appeared on the surrounding walls and bookshelves.

"About this level."

"..."

Xue Yi's mouth twitched twice. She had originally thought Su Xiao was at most stronger than a Red Hunter and weaker than a Saint Councilor. Now it seemed that wasn't the case at all.

Dust fell from the ceiling. Xue Yi stood up, and black patterns spread from her sleeves, wrapping her right hand inside.

"I'm coming. If you can take this punch, I'll help you gather people to kill Misfortune."

As soon as Xue Yi finished speaking, she punched toward Su Xiao.

With a "bang," a sonic boom spread. Su Xiao tilted his head to dodge the punch while drawing his blade.

"You two! Are you trying to tear down the headquarters!"

A roar came from the entrance. It was the slightly panting old man Carmen. The old man was so angry his lips were trembling. At this moment, the blade of Zhan Long Shan was only five centimeters from Xue Yi's neck.

"The plot isn't right. Shouldn't you be taking my punch head-on?"

Xue Yi looked at Su Xiao with a smile. Su Xiao ignored her; he naturally wouldn't do such a brain-dead thing.

"Crack~"

The library wall cracked. Old man Carmen's cheek twitched violently. From the aura that erupted when Su Xiao and Xue Yi fought, the old man judged that Su Xiao was absolutely the strongest tier of martial power in the Saint Healing Church. One must know that when Xue Yi was at headquarters, her strength would increase significantly.

"I'm a person who keeps my word. When are you going to assassinate those two sisters?"

"In one day."

"That's good. Old man, how about you go to the South to hunt Misfortune? After all, you have a lot of experience, and there's also that old man Yosea."

"Are you trying to get me killed?"

"Anyway, you won't live much longer. It wouldn't be bad to shine one last time before you die."

"Easy for you to say."

Although old man Carmen didn't know the details yet, when he heard the name Misfortune, he had already guessed what was going on.

Xue Yi's words didn't sound very pleasant, but old man Carmen didn't care at all. If others said this, it would be disrespectful, but this girl was the only exception. She had paid too much for the Saint Healing Church. Without her, those three witches from the South would have already led people to slaughter their way into the Central Plains years ago.

"I can't have any accidents yet, at least not until a successor appears. Sigh, I really want to find someone to replace me."

Xue Yi lay back on that small wooden bed. Hearing her say this, Carmen also sighed.

"Just hold on for a while longer. Give them some time."

"It's up to you. As for whether to go to the South, consider it yourself."

"Do I even need to consider it? Bai Ye, follow me."

Carmen walked out of the library. Su Xiao glanced at Xue Yi. Xue Yi smiled somewhat cunningly. Her behavior seemed rash, but in reality, it wasn't.

Xue Yi first tested Su Xiao's purpose, then tested his strength. After perceiving Su Xiao's jaw-dropping combat power, she was immediately moved—not because she wanted to have a "fling" with Su Xiao, but because of the assassination of Moi Nora that Su Xiao had mentioned earlier.

To the Saint Healing Church, Moi Nora was a thorn in their side, the most troublesome witch in hundreds of years. Currently, the South was developing freely, which was definitely not a good thing for the Saint Healing Church.

Precisely because of this, Xue Yi simply supported Su Xiao's plan to assassinate Moi Nora. As for the personnel supported by the Saint Healing Church, they were all old men who wouldn't live for many more years.

Although these old men were not weak in strength, they didn't have many years left to live, and they had all cultivated their favorite successors to inherit their positions as Saint Councilors and hold down the Saint Healing Church headquarters.

In this way, even if Su Xiao's plan failed, the Saint Healing Church wouldn't suffer much loss. If it succeeded, it would be a windfall. As long as Moi Nora died, the Saint Healing Church could suppress the development of the witches in the South.

Su Xiao naturally saw through Xue Yi's intention, but he only needed a few reliable people to assassinate Misfortune. The old guys of the Saint Healing Church were very reliable: powerful, experienced, and unafraid of death. Plus, since the enemies were witches, there was no possibility of infighting.

Two hours later, in the third-floor conference room, after a detailed discussion, Su Xiao had basically finalized the plan with Carmen.

Carmen didn't feel this sudden plan was abrupt. Witch hunting was just like this; it wasn't a large-scale war, it required precise layout. A meeting composed of a few people could be a witch-hunting event that would be passed down through history.

Moreover, with Su Xiao's status as a Red Hunter, he was already a high-level member of the Saint Healing Church. This was the right to speak he had won with strength and action. Those witch incarnation fragments were the best proof.

In front of a conference table with several wormholes, Su Xiao picked up the belt by his feet. With a "clatter," he poured a pile of gold coins onto the table.

"This is..."

Carmen looked at Su Xiao in confusion.

"Settlement money for you old guys."

"Hahaha."

Carmen was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"We old guys are all without children, but... I'll accept these gold coins. Many people need them."

Carmen wasn't greedy for money, and not just him; the lives of most high-level members of the Saint Healing Church weren't extravagant. ===== CHAPTER 1570 =====
