Chapter 3654
Although Xia De didn't let others follow, Vanessa still didn't allow him to set off until he brought 【Night Watcher】. To facilitate the action, Ellie and little Liana, who were following everyone to play on the mountain, were temporarily "conscripted." Xia De and Xiris each rode a small unicorn, while Claire flew behind on her own.
The group of three descended from the southern foot of the snow mountain to the north of the snow mountain, and finally landed on a somewhat remote beach.
Feilian was indeed here—at least this person's appearance was Feilian. She didn't do anything, just stood on the beach looking at the sea in the snow. Just looking at her back, this was indeed a graceful lady, and even had a faint sadness when facing the sea, but Xia De knew very well that this was an effect she deliberately created.
The two small unicorns showed full hostility toward her after landing. These innocent and kind creatures hated this woman extremely.
And the woman looking at the sea did not leave because of the arrival of the group. When Xia De jumped off Ellie's back and walked toward her with Claire and Xiris, she finally turned around from the direction facing the sea:
"Unicorns."
She looked at the small beasts that Xia De forbade to continue approaching with a smile:
"They are even more beautiful than I imagined in my girlhood. Your appearance this time is much more polite than breaking into my house last time. Then do you want to try again? Maybe this time you found the true body."
"I'm here to deliver a letter. Viscount Fu De asked me to send you a letter."
Xia De said and threw the Viscount's letter over. Although the wind and snow by the sea were a bit strong, the letter still fell accurately into the hands of the woman by the sea.
She opened the letter and took a look:
"He wants to see me?"
"Yes, I told the Viscount not to have regrets in life. And I feel that if you can repent after seeing the Viscount, your story cannot be considered a completely bad ending."
Xia De said while looking at her:
"I didn't do anything when I found you this time, just because of this reason. If you are willing to meet the Viscount, I can help you reply to him and arrange the time and place."
But the woman put the letter away and shook her head gently:
"It's still too early. After I finish Mr. Snake's last task and pay the price tag hanging on the gift of fate, I will take the initiative to find him and leave here with him forever. At that time, everything here has nothing to do with us.
As for now, I can only let him wait for me for a while longer. I am very sorry about this, but so many years have passed. Now for him and me, it is already the last darkness before dawn."
Seeing the other party say this, Xia De no longer hid it:
"When I communicated with the Viscount, he told me a secret thing. He didn't forbid me from telling you this message. I think you should know—back then you obtained the power from Mr. Snake to make the Viscount love you forever, but in fact, that power might not have taken effect."
Xia De briefly talked about the past that a family member of the Fu De family married the great elder of the locals two hundred years ago:
"You can go to the Viscount to verify it yourself. I didn't lie. So from the current situation, that snake might have lied to you. You already possessed the Viscount's love, but it made you pay an extra price for what you already had."
But Xia De's words did not have any effect. The woman with her back to the sea asked:
"But you also said yourself, that family heirloom of his family only possibly played a role, right?"
While speaking, she raised her hand and touched her face. Xiris and Claire beside Xia De were seeing the woman's true body for the first time. They both admitted that although the other party's face was not as beautiful as the great witches, it was indeed quite charming when looked at carefully.
"I trust Mr. Snake's power enough, because I have seen that gentleman's true body with my own eyes. I know it is an unstoppable power. Moreover, what I obtained from Mr. Snake is not just the Viscount's eternal love for me. I also obtained this face, and the power to control my own life at will now."
Her fingertips slid from below her left cheek. For some reason, this action made Xia De think of that mermaid.
"As for what you said, I will verify it with Mr. Snake after the transaction is over. But even if it is really as you said, it doesn't matter. That is just the price I paid to fate. Now I have obtained enough things, and paying more price doesn't actually matter.
After all, the things I care about have already reached my hands."
The other party is not a lunatic, and even a bit too rational. She has lived alone on the island for so many years to help that snake do things, and she must have experienced many things. However, Xia De didn't think he could make the other party surrender voluntarily with just a few words. Even if his rhetoric was very powerful, it was not "hypnosis":
"So even if you know what you are doing is wrong, you still want to continue doing it? Using other people's blood and pain to dye the love roses that belong to you, do you really think such love is beautiful?"
The woman replied:
"When we first met in the Frost Kiss Corridor, you once carried me on your back and talked to me about the topic of being a good person or a bad person. You have your answer, but do you know what my answer is? Everything has a price, so there is no need to worry about whether what you are doing is worth it, because the price will definitely appear."
She didn't give Xia De a chance to continue persuading:
"However, I have contacted so many men, and you are the most special one. You probably thought I always wanted to charm you, but in fact, I really have a good impression of you. So, take this as a gift. Consider it a reward for you running back and forth to help me and the Viscount deliver letters. I won't let others help me for nothing. Tell the Viscount again that I am busy doing my own things recently. After things are handled, I will definitely take the initiative to see him."
What she threw to Xia De was a roll of old parchment. Xia De glanced at it, and his expression suddenly became serious:
"Love Spell? A fate secret art that forcibly binds the red threads of fate of two people, making love eternal? Is this the reward that snake gave you?"
The woman laughed:
"Yes, now I give it to you. Since you said Mr. Snake might have lied to me, you can take this power to verify your own thoughts. And I am very curious, after being able to make anyone love you forever, will you use this power?"
She winked at Xia De and turned to walk along the coastline toward the east. She was not surprised at all that Xia De appeared behind her in this second and pressed her shoulder.
So the beautiful woman tilted her head slightly and looked back:
"Why, still not giving up and want to try again?"
"Always have to try."
Claire and Xiris had just received Xia De's hint, and Xia De didn't let them come forward. And what they saw at this moment was the black ring emerging from the back of the woman. She smiled at Xia De, and then the whole person fell onto Xia De in a shrill scream.
The fate of 【Fool】 played a role again, but this time, the moment the ring lit up, Xia De's hand pierced through the other party's body from the back, and in the flesh and blood, he grasped the black ring. The fate that should not have been touched by him now revealed its true form with the purple light radiating from the back of his hand. Xia De felt the touch of the ring, and he really touched it.
"Hmm? You actually can..."
The woman who fell on Xia De opened her eyes again, looked at Xia De with great surprise, and then the whole person exploded into a cloud of blood mist in the sea breeze in a shrill scream.
The black ring wanted to take this opportunity to escape in the blood mist, but Xia De held the ring tightly and refused to let go.
The ring was on one hand called by its true holder and wanted to leave, and on the other hand, it was suppressed by the purple light on the back of Xia De's hand. When the blood mist drifted away, and Claire and Xiris wanted to do something—
Crack!
A clear cracking sound echoed in everyone's heart for an instant. Black light erupted from the ring. As Xia De staggered back, the fate of 【Fool】, which had clear cracks on its surface, escaped into the void.
But Claire and Xiris both knew that Xia De was not without gains. The black arc was now grasped in his hand. He waved his hand to disperse the blood mist around, and looked at the human remains scattered on the ground with some pity:
"Breath of Time."
But even with the power of the Breath of Time, it only allowed the bones of the corpse to be reassembled, and the flesh part disappeared permanently.
"Is this the arc of 【Fool】?"
Claire asked after Xia De collected the bones, and Xia De nodded, looking at the brand new "Fate Fragment" in his hand:
"The fate of 【Fool】 appeared cracked because of our competition. Although the ring is not broken, the power of that fate will definitely be affected. So that's it, nobility can suppress..."
【Fool】 had no reaction in his hand, this fate was completely unsuitable for him. When he handed it to Claire and Xiris, the platinum-haired witch of the sun was worried that it would light up in her hand. She equated "Fool" with "Clown," but fortunately, neither she nor Xiris matched this fate at all.
"The Lover probably won't dare to appear in front of you like this again."
Xiris said to Xia De with a smile, and Xia De looked at the position where the woman stood by the beach just now:
"She manipulates those controlled people, it shouldn't be that she needs to use the power of 【Fool】 every time. That is mainly because of her powerful mental and soul power. So, what was she doing here with this fate just now? Being blocked by us at home was an accident, so she needed to rely on this fate to escape, but this time... you guess, besides expanding the spread of the snake plague, what else did she do on this island?"
