Chapter 1835

"Look, Megan, you're saying that kind of thing again."

Xia De held Xiao Xiao Miya and said with a smile. Megan shook her head quickly:

"This matter is truly hard to understand. As a witch in the Council responsible for inheriting and preserving knowledge and history, I find it difficult to accept the kind of thing you mentioned... Never mind, if I can't figure it out, I won't think about it. There are many strange things about you anyway. Compared to the fact that you and we are sitting so close without feeling annoyed, your time travel is not important at all."

She adjusted her mindset:

"The time period you mentioned did indeed witness a very serious disaster. The Wushen Sect and the Zalas Academy should both have detailed records."

At that time point, the Zalas Academy existed in the form of the "Zalas Society," while the founders of the Saint Byrons Comprehensive Academy had not yet been born, and the Sercsis Higher Medical College was in its infancy.

"This can be counted as a scandal of the Fifth Era. Combined with the love story you mentioned, some parts I didn't understand when I read this history before have now been answered. However, since that history is related to the Council's scandal, it cannot be spoken of here."

"Do you want to go to the Council?"

Miss Sylvie asked. After Megan nodded, she quickly grabbed Xia De's hand and pulled him up;

"Megan, you haven't seen Xia De appear in the Council before, have you? Come, let's go in right now. I don't know why, but every time I see Xia De appear in the Council, I get very excited."

That is why the one who has always sat directly opposite the Time Little Witch is the eldest sister of the Council, Sylvie. However, you are currently preparing to advance from the Tenth Rank to the Eleventh Rank; in that case, you will not be able to swap places with Grandmother Cassandra.

"However, you are not here to talk about that. The Council's secrets, I'm afraid, even the Chairman himself dares not claim to know completely. You help him check some information."

That bookshelf should also be a symbolic object; the books under the bookshelf do not represent all the books stored there. Xia De merely flipped through a few pages and found the part he remembered reading.

"Worry not. The meeting just ended, and someone wanted to leave alone. Now is not the most appropriate time point."

"Hmm... actually, at that time, it should have been him asking you whether you were willing to do so, rather than him wanting to do it."

"Actually, you are also willing to wait silently for him, or, like this Richard Jackman, suffer greatly."

"Although he has not yet demonstrated so many incredible things, being able to enter directly here still surprises me... Theoretically speaking, without the Chairman's permission, even we cannot casually bring people in."

"Among those lost histories, exactly how many stories we do not know are still hidden? No one can say clearly. That is why we need witches like Megan, who possess time talents, to go to the past and witness segments of past events."

Although Huo Qing had heard that Huo Qing could not only learn the secret arts of witches but even enter the Council, this was the first time she saw Huo Qing do so. Thus, the two Great Witches held Megan's hand on her left and right sides. With Xiao Miya riding on Megan's shoulders, and amidst Sister Sylvie's gentle singing, they stepped from the basement corridor into this ancient long corridor covered in white ash on the ground.

"Yes, because it involved a subspace and an unknown evil spirit, all information regarding this war was hidden. However, this matter was not handled by the Council in the end. The local Emperor somehow contacted a follower of an Old God and paid a huge price to ask the deity to intervene, thereby stopping the expansion of the rift."

Megan had long since stopped calculating how much reward the Old God—【The Golden Sovereign】—received from how many people in that incident.

Xia De gently closed the book and looked at Huo Qing:

"Megan, last time, Miss Jia Lin Na and I, in order to help you investigate the data of this Witch Emperor Chloe, let you witness the extra functions of the Council (Chapter 1071). However, this time we opened the area behind the 'Moon' seat, regarding the bookshelves recording the Council members. The information we seek this time is behind Xia De's and Audrey's chairs."

Xia De also stood up, just about to say something, when suddenly the three of them changed expressions, hearing footsteps coming from the other side of the passage ahead.

"The subsequent records are very simple: the deity stopped the rift's expansion, and this burning plain was completely sealed. About seventy or eighty years later, a strange skeleton fell from the sky, completely blocking the rift. And when people tried to find that skeleton again, they could not find it no matter what."

Sister Sylvie introduced, and Xia De nodded:

"At first, it was indeed just a war between humans. Firearms began to appear then, but ordinary human kingdoms, by paying tribute to witches, could obtain witches' blessings and some potions to increase their combat power when organizing large-scale operations. The first month of the war was unremarkable, but later someone spent a huge sum to ask a witch from one side to intervene directly. Thus, the other side offered even more wealth to have the witch they worshipped intervene directly as well."

"We are not ordinary girls. Witches all know that happiness must be fought for by oneself. Doing nothing and expecting others to look at you can only lead to a lonely old age."

"I once told him that the hidden areas within the Council are actually not sealed; each connects to at least two other areas. It's just that the Chairman sealed the passages."

Huo Qing reminded, and the white-haired girl showed a smile on her face:

Sister Sylvie said, then pulled Megan's hand and introduced Xia De's and Audrey's seats to her. The eighteen chairs here can actually be moved in the Chairman's absence, while our corresponding seats are determined by our own ranks. The higher the rank, the closer one sits to the Time Little Witch. If the ranks are equal, the younger witch sits in front.

Megan raised her own concern.

"There is a hidden wall behind."

The passage is very narrow; even if the three walk side by side, it is not crowded. However, unlike the passage behind the 'Moon,' which is straight and ends with only seven symbolic bookshelves, the passage behind 'Knowledge and Wisdom' slopes slightly upward, and it takes more than seventy steps to reach the end.

"Is that the reason Mr. Jackman never returned to his hometown?"

This is a basement space similar to a study—'basement' is relative to the position of the Council's round table.

"The witches' battles directly affected the humans on the battlefield. Afterwards, someone shot an arrow at a witch in the sky. Feeling their dignity was insulted, the witch used secret arts to summon demonic flames, burning all the mortals below."

She sighed lightly, and Huo Qing understood:

Speaking thus, she directly sat on the chair in front of the desk and carefully pulled a book from the bookshelf behind her.

"The difference between ancient witches and modern ones also lies in the fact that we are very enthusiastic about learning secret arts with high lethality and large areas of effect."

However, her skills were not refined enough; the summoning ritual went wrong, accurately opening a rift to an unknown subspace, causing flames to pour out continuously from that rift... A witch allied with her rescued her. They wanted to conceal their mistake and dared not directly ask the local Witch Emperor for help, so that when the matter could no longer be concealed, even an Eighteenth-Rank Great Witch could not close that rift."

Megan said to herself, amusing herself in her heart, holding the cat that looked around with a curious face, and walked in together with the two Great Witches.

When Sister Sylvie's singing stopped, the long corridor had already reached its end. A white fog door blocked the three of them, and then the three stepped in together.

She did not hand the book to Megan but simply described

the things Megan wanted to know;

The relic emitted a stern light. In that light, the originally soft stone steps appeared ripples like a phantom and quickly revealed a square opening.

To enter the Witch Council, one needs an empty and unoccupied long corridor; this can be achieved in the hotel basement. Kan Shu La

"Look, Megan really came in."

The golden eyes looked at Megan, and she asked softly:

The material of the eight was completely consistent with the Council's long table. The lighting came from an old lantern placed on the desk; this light perfectly covered the entire tabletop.

The area here is also large, almost seven-eighths of Huo Qing's home study. The things placed here are also quite simple: only a desk, chairs, and a bookshelf behind the desk.

"When I read about this matter before, I only treated it as a warning that we must not use power recklessly. After hearing his story, I realized that behind this, there are so many hidden circumstances and such a love legend."

Sister Sylvie spoke, while Xia De, holding this left-ear golden earring, came to the back of his own chair. He gently touched the symbol representing 'Knowledge and Wisdom' behind the chair, then aimed at the steps behind the chair back and raised his jewelry.

Sister Sylvie added, and Xia De nodded, continuing to tell the story:

Xia De said softly amidst the vast white fog, then took out his witch jewelry—the ancient witch's golden earring

(Left):

Sister Sylvie said, placing her hand on Huo Qing's shoulder.

The white fog dispersed. Strange heavenly light from above covered the ancient stone round table located in the circular clearing. Around the round table were eighteen backrest chairs, each with different symbols carved on their backs.

And around this clearing where the Council seats were placed were layers of stone steps leading downward. This was very similar to the sacrificial ground where Sister Sister Daifulin stored the Primordial Fire, except the area of this clearing was very small.

"Won't we meet other witches? Although I now know eight Great Witches, I am not yet prepared to meet their Chairman."

"That outsider... every time I see him, I want to sigh. The ancient demon men were neither evil nor good."

"May the hidden chaos protect you, fellow demon man."
