Chapter 1006: The Guest Becomes the Host!
Damn! Why did the plot suddenly speed up!
When Lin Feng woke up, he found that, in the role of Zhan Ze, he had already become a married man.
He had been married for many years.
His wife was Ji Wu.
What about the process?
And how did the everyday life go?
Lin Feng tried hard to recall.
In his mind there were only faint, vague impressions, half‑true, half‑false.
Like a middle‑aged man recalling his youthful arrogance.
It existed; he knew there was such a process.
When he was young, he could write tens of thousands of words to describe it.
Of course, most of it would be ellipses.
Now, it can only be summed up in a short sentence.
That is… once had.
"Ji Wu, you're so ruthless! You don't even give the process!"
Lin Feng's biggest dislike is this kind of plot without a process, his brows furrowed in angry frustration.
It seems Ji Wu, to accelerate the Illusion Realm's progress, only gave the main storyline.
After getting dressed, Lin Feng pressed his wrist.
A robot maid walked in.
She was quite pretty, but still not as functionally complete as the robots produced by Little Days on Earth.
"Master, what orders?"
The beautiful robot asked softly.
"Where is the lady?"
Lin Feng asked.
The beautiful robot replied, "The lady was just summoned back to the Main Star."
"What happened?"
Lin Feng followed up.
Robots have this flaw: they only answer what you ask them.
They never proactively answer follow‑up questions after an initial query.
The beautiful robot said, "The lady's mother has encountered some problems..."
The answer was very detailed.
Lin Feng slightly furrowed his brows, raised his wrist, and tapped it.
Then, more classified data appeared.
As the Star Lord of a planet, the ruler of this world, equivalent to a regional lord, Lin Feng still had many secret sources of information.
It turned out that the Royal Clan of the Main Star faced a governance crisis, and Ji Wu's mother Jiang Wu was about to be executed.
The Witch King specifically recalled Ji Wu, though his intentions toward her were unknown.
Lin Feng was astonished that Ji Wu had actually arranged such a plot.
Was this an event that originally occurred within the Witch Tribe, or something Ji Wu fabricated herself?
After some analysis, Lin Feng concluded that it should be something the Witch Tribe had originally experienced.
Perhaps precisely because of this incident, Ji Wu's heart harbored a seed of revenge.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have blown up the Taiwu Ship, eliminating Lin Feng's biggest trouble.
What Lin Feng didn't know was that Ji Wu now found herself in a dilemma.
The occurrence of these events in the Illusion Realm had long exceeded the degree she could control.
And it started from Zhan Ze (Lin Feng) choosing her as his wife.
The original Ji Wu, even when her mother faced crisis, was a silent, nameless Princess.
The Witch King, as well as many who wanted to frame Jiang Wu, all overlooked her.
But now it's different; Ji Wu is the wife of a Star Lord, wielding great authority.
She commands at least one‑tenth of the Witch Tribe's military strength.
This is a massive force; if mishandled, it could spark a larger rebellion within the Witch Tribe.
When Ji Wu returned to the Main Star, she was immediately placed under house arrest.
While Lin Feng was waking up, recalling his exchange with her, he was finally permitted to meet her mother.
The Witch King had visited Ji Wu yesterday, hoping she could persuade her mother Jiang Wu,
to voluntarily take on the fabricated charges, giving the tribe an explanation.
If Jiang Wu does so, the Witch King can spare her life, consigning her to eternal slumber.
Ji Wu naturally agreed.
At this point, Ji Wu could be said to be even more immersed in this Illusion Realm than Lin Feng.
Her mother's fate is both the source of her hatred and Ji Wu's inner demon.
After composing herself, Ji Wu used a special teleportation channel to reach the Witch Tribe's highest‑level prison.
Her mother still exuded regal elegance, her eyes radiating the light of wisdom.
She was not punished, because after all she was the Witch King's concubine.
Mother~
Seeing her mother again, Ji Wu almost couldn't hold back her tears.
Jiang Wu laughed, and, carefully extending a hand through the energy‑made fence, wiped the tears from Ji Wu's face.
"Don't cry, child; this is my mother's fate. I will voluntarily confess my guilt, for only then will you be safe."
After Jiang Wu finished speaking, Ji Wu shook her head desperately.
Jiang Wu retracted his hand, sat down with a smile, and kept tapping his fingers on his knee.
This is an ancient password.
After seeing it, Ji Wu was stunned!
Because her mind was overly agitated, the Illusion Realm fluctuated violently and nearly collapsed.
Given such a scene, she had seen this password gesture her mother gave before.
But at that time, she hadn't paid much attention to it.
Her mother told her, the Witch King would never let her live, but she had a way to preserve her life.
Before entering the palace, she had already prepared her own genetic sample.
If she could transfer her consciousness into a Spirit state, she would have a chance to survive.
……
Visiting time is up.
Ji Wu was transferred out of the prison.
Returning to her house arrest, Ji Wu fell silent.
She had many questions in her heart.
How did her mother manage it?
Moreover, is the consciousness transformed into a Spirit a copy of her mother, or her mother's actual soul?
Where exactly is her mother's Spirit hidden?
Could it be on the Taiwu Ship that she blew up?
After all, that starship was designed and built by her mother.
Every line of code in its Intelligent Program was written by her mother.
If it were truly on that starship, wouldn't that make her the killer of her own mother?
Ah~
A howl filled with extreme regret burst from Ji Wu's mouth.
What Illusion Realm, what sparring with Lin Feng—at this moment she didn't care anymore.
Ji Wu's this howl was captured by the Intelligent Program, which sent the analysis results to the Witch King.
After seeing it, the Witch King narrowed his eyes slightly, then a sharp light flashed in his gaze.
Ji Wu is merely one of his many daughters.
Moreover, she poses a great threat, so she must be eliminated.
Because hatred has arisen in her heart.
Once the seed of hatred sprouts, it can never be erased.
Soon, the Witch King issued the order.
Ji Wu was locked up in the prison where her mother was held.
But not in the same cell.
……
Ji Wu's emotional fluctuations naturally drew Lin Feng's attention.
Just now, the Illusion Realm was, to him, nothing more than a thin skin.
As long as he exerts a little force—well, a mental struggle—he can break through Ji Wu's Illusion Realm.
Then he would be victorious,
while Ji Wu would awaken from a nightmare.
After the Illusion Realm recovered, it was even weaker than before.
Lin Feng's eyes shifted, and an idea formed in his mind.
Since Ji Wu has trapped herself, let him take charge of this Illusion Realm.
Lin Feng began to unleash his mental power, growing from weak to strong, gradually supplanting Ji Wu.
He must get this balance just right.
He must seize the initiative, yet not let Ji Wu notice.
