Chapter 1439: The Witches Reunited

The curtain had already been spread out in front of them, and Fiona trusted Xia De quite a bit, rushing toward the curtain. But even though the curtain was right in front of them, in the current situation where the frozen river of time had been restored by the god and instant movement could not be achieved here, it would take time for the two and the cat to enter it completely.

And the god sitting behind the curtain high up in the palace in the distance, seeing the curtain spread out, finally took action against them in a practical sense. Before this, out of consideration for the Tree Father and not wanting to hurt Fiona, the god had not seriously fought the two.

The night turned into a giant hand, appearing behind the two in an instant. Even though they were already close to touching the black curtain floating in the air, that giant hand of night could still grab them.

But it was also at this moment that the mischievous cat had poked most of its body out of Xia De's arms.

Its two hind paws were still inside Xia De's coat, kicking the clothes to stabilize its balance, while its two front paws were climbing on Xia De's shoulders, letting the small cat head look over Xia De's shoulder at what was behind them.

Xia De and Fiona could not look back at this time, so only Mia's large amber eyes saw the pitch-black giant hand. The cat's excellent night vision even allowed its gaze to pass through the giant hand, pass through the hole in the terrace door of the palace far away, and see the god sitting behind the curtain high up in the palace.

The god and the cat looked at each other. The curtain in front of the former was suddenly ignited by golden flames, while the weak and pitiful cat showed a terrified expression; it was frightened.

So out of fright, the cat, which was still glowing all over, called out in the way it usually frightened enemies: "Meow!"

The cat's meow echoed in the sky of the Eternal Night City, and the suddenly erupting golden light, like the sun, directly dispelled most of the night in the night sky behind Xia De and Fiona, and even the night sky was illuminated, revealing the real starry sky and the moon.

And although Xia De and Fiona could notice the strong light appearing behind them, they had no time to turn their heads to see what exactly was going on. "Sun."

I don't know who whispered in this long night, and the long night frozen in the rain had been completely broken by this shrill cat meow.

The night did not pursue the two again, and even the part of the Eternal Night City illuminated by the cat in the sky was not covered by the thick night again.

This momentary pause had allowed Fiona to take Xia De and Mia completely through the curtain in the night sky. Perhaps because it was not used normally, this curtain just fixed itself in the sky of the Eternal Night City, and then slowly merged completely with the night curtain.

"Oh!"

Xia De and Fiona hugged and rolled a few times in the corridor covered with white ash before struggling to sit up.

Most of their clothes were dyed white, and even the orange and white cat had turned into a ridiculous mostly white appearance at this time. Of course, Mia shook her body violently, shaking off the white ash, successfully avoiding Xia De's terrible idea of "washing the cat."

And after leaving the Eternal Night City, Xia De's lock officially ended. Fiona returned to her normal Twelve-Ring state, because she was not actually casting spells, so even though she used power beyond her level, she had no sequelae herself.

The Red Dragon girl sat on the ground holding Xia De with lingering fear, looking at the curtain hanging on the ancient brick wall behind them. The night invaded the corridor like splashed ink as the two entered, but only left mottled traces in the corridor. The god's power did not pass through the curtain and extend to the area outside the Eternal Night City.

"Safe."

Confirming safety, she finally realized that her whole body was exhausted. This was not because of injury, but because of lingering fear. The memory of the life-and-death second seemed to be still before her eyes, and the warm embrace holding her, as well as the cat claws constantly trying to push her out of Xia De's arms, told her that they had really escaped from the hands of a god.

"Yes, safe."

Xia De was in the weak stage after using the lock, but he could barely stand up:

"Quick, quick, go. I only have 3 minutes this time. There is only one minute left now. I want to watch you leave here, quick."

He stroked the cat that was no longer glowing, but didn't blame the cat for turning back from a toy without permission. He could feel that if it weren't for the light on the cat giving the two the warmth of the sun just now, it would have been difficult for them to have the strength to pass through the curtain at the end.

Of course, Xia De didn't realize that this cat actually frightened something with its meow.

But when he stood up while supporting Fiona, Xia De suddenly thought that this was the first time in so long that he had left the mission location specified by the Tree Father in the past time. This was quite fresh for him, and he could try more things in the future.

"My lock positioning, the direction of departure should be 'home,' but I don't have a home in this era. Maybe the exit is still dangerous."

"I'll support you. Xia De, I can also deal with danger... You've done enough for me."

Fiona felt like she wanted to cry. The Red Dragon girl carefully supported Xia De, feeling that Xia De's state was so bad:

"You over-expended your spirit; you must not fight fiercely in a short time."

While speaking, she supported Xia De and walked forward. Compared to the night of the Eternal Night City, the night that seeped into the corridor was not worth mentioning; she herself could even walk through it directly.

Of course, this also had to do with staying in the Eternal Night City for too long, which had greatly increased her resistance to the night.

Mia also saw that Xia De's state was not good, so she obediently shrank back into Xia De's chest. Fiona tried her best not to cry, and asked again:

"You said you could only come to the Eternal Night City four times, and the fifth time you came to save me, what kind of price did you pay?" "It's okay, it's okay. I promised to save you."

Xia De shook his head, then took the initiative to change the subject: "Do you recognize this corridor?"

"I recognize it. Miss Miss Feilian has become an official member, and I followed Miss Olanod to walk this path. Does the end lead to the door to the Council?"

"No. Did Miss Miss Feilian say what this corridor represents? Is it part of the Witch Council?" "No."

Fiona shook her head hurriedly; she could see that Xia De cared very much about this answer:

"Teacher Miss Feilian said that the Council has nothing to do with this corridor; it's just that someone hid the only door to the Council here, so the witches need to enter the corridor first to reach the door."

"What is the corridor? Some unknown location? Subspace? Or something even more bizarre?"

"I don't know. Teacher Miss Feilian and Teacher Olanod don't know for the time being. But they said this corridor is quite ancient, very ancient, more ancient than any ruins and tombs they have ever seen."

This path was not long, and they didn't need to observe the surroundings, so even while supporting Xia De, Fiona soon brought him to the exit. Xia De knew that outside the exit was the Randall Valley of the Fifth Era, but he didn't know what the situation was in that large creek area at this time.

His time was running out. If there was another battle to face, he definitely couldn't handle it. And Fiona clearly knew Xia De's thoughts. She didn't take Xia De directly through the exit, but took out a glove she had just finished knitting from the few remaining luggage in her small bag.

That was a glove for the right hand, which Xia De saw her knitting while sitting in the tent when he returned to the "Place of Dusk." Fiona stuffed the glove into Xia De's pocket:

"It contains my hair and... some scales, which have better protection than ordinary dragon skin gloves. Just send me here; you don't need to accompany me. You've done enough for me."

"But..."

"Can we meet again?"

The crimson eyes looked at Xia De at close range, and the temperature of the soul was simply more scorching than dragon fire. "Yes, definitely, this is also my promise."

Xia De said very affirmatively, so Fiona didn't care about the mess on both of them at this time, reached out and hugged his neck and kissed him. She wanted to use this as a farewell for the two, and remember this moment forever, waiting for the next reunion after an unknown long time.

It's just that Xia De was still worried that there would be other dangers outside the passage, and insisted on confirming Fiona's safety before leaving.

Therefore, while the two were kissing, he used his body, which had barely recovered some strength, to take Fiona out of the night at the end of the corridor.

Although there were torches for lighting in the corridor, when returning to the normal space belonging to the Fifth Era, the dazzling sunlight still forced Xia De to close his eyes to adapt.

He heard many footsteps, he heard the chirping of birds and the sound of gurgling streams. He smelled the fragrant breath belonging to nature, smelled the scent of flowers, smelled the taste of black tea.

"Black tea?"

Barely opening his eyes, through the glass, he saw the natural scenery of the river valley in spring outside the house. Birds were chirping in the trees, clear streams flowed by the side of the house, and the stream reflected the sunlight in the woods, the sparkling light was very beautiful.

"Glass?"

This was a glass house, the house itself was approximately hexagonal, and from the height, it was on the second floor at this time.

The house area was very large, and the girls in maid outfits outside the house were trimming the flower beds, while the girls on the first floor were organizing documents, or laughing and processing alchemy materials and potion materials in the workshop.

The girl pushing the dining cart appeared at the stairs on the second floor. The second floor of the entire glass house was decorated simply, with mahogany bookshelves leaning against the left side of the floor, and small flowers placed on the windowsill. On the coat rack by the wall hung a violet-colored pointed hat, and on the alchemy workbench, spices were slowly drifting out of the incense burner.

And in front of Xia De and Fiona who were kissing, a parasol was set up inside the glass house. Under the parasol was a white afternoon tea round table for the afternoon. Besides the white porcelain tea set, there were two letters and a few books scattered on the table.

And on both sides of the table sat two ladies who were looking at them appearing suddenly. ===== CHAPTER 1440 =====

And in front of the kissing Xia De and Fiona, a parasol was propped up inside the glass room; under the umbrella was a white afternoon tea round table, and besides the white porcelain tea set, there were two letters and a few books scattered on the table.

And on both sides of the table sat two ladies who were watching them appear suddenly.
