Chapter 148 The Deep Eye Witch's Belated Regret

"Master True Ancestor, you are wronging me. How could I possibly convert to the Abyss?" Li Cheng spread his hands and said, "You should know that I, Li Cheng, have been your most devout believer since ancient times."

Scarlet True Ancestor: "Haha, so you kidnapped my only descendant, right?"

Li Cheng: "You are right. I, Li Cheng, have been Miss Latania's protector since ancient times."

Crimson True Ancestor: ...

How did this guy become so thick-skinned?

This is truly a peerless sword tomb that is unrivaled throughout the ages...

The Scarlet True Ancestor shook his head, but the shock in his heart was even greater than before.

How long has it been?

It hasn't even been a month since we last met, right?

This man has so much more power.

The power of pain and the power of Slaanesh are much purer than before, and the power of deception is no less powerful.

The dragon bloodline has even been developed to the point where they can use dragon language magic.

Not to mention, the regenerative power that was almost overflowing.

The Scarlet True Ancestor had never seen anyone who could improve his strength so quickly within a month.

Even she herself had never achieved such an achievement at this underage age.

Compared with these abilities, it is the blood power in him that is a hindrance.

Thinking of this, the Scarlet True Ancestor suddenly felt a little sad.

At first she thought that Li Cheng was coveting the power of the vampires and getting close to Latania, so she was dissatisfied with him.

At this moment, it seems that even without the power of the vampires, his strength is unmatched by ordinary people.

It's not that he needs vampires, it's not that he relies on Tata.

On the contrary, it is the vampires who need him and Tata who rely on him.

If Li Cheng hadn't protected Latania, with her intelligence and unique thinking, she probably wouldn't have survived more than three years in this world...

The Scarlet True Ancestor became angry when he thought of that unfilial descendant.

How could she, with such genius in her blood, give birth to such stupid offspring?

It would be great if Li Cheng was her descendant...

"Ah." The Crimson True Ancestor sighed and smacked his lips twice: "Am I feeling too good about myself?"

"what did you say?"

"Nothing, Xiao Li Cheng, where is Tata?"

"Oh, she's still in the academy. She should be sleeping at this time." Li Cheng smiled brightly: "Don't worry, she's safe. As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to her."

"Thank you very much."

A gentle smile appeared on the face of the Crimson True Ancestor.

The more she looks at Li Cheng, the more she likes him.

Such an intelligent, elegant and beautiful young man should have been a member of their blood clan since ancient times.

If she hadn't already been halfway to becoming a god, and if she hadn't been separated from Li Cheng by a divine being, she would have had to take action herself and embrace Li Cheng to become a pure-blooded vampire.

"So why did you come to me today?"

"Of course I'm fulfilling my promise." Li Cheng smiled and made way for the smiling Artrix Wolf behind him. "I promised you before that I would offer you food, so I can't break my promise."

"Is this... the disaster wolf that hunts witches? A mythical creature?"

The Scarlet True Ancestor's eyes trembled, and then he licked his lips imperceptibly.

After all, she is a half-step god, and her vision is much higher than other lives in the Destiny Continent or the Abyss.

She knew very well the role of mythical life.

This creature usually lives in the gap between two worlds. It is constrained by time and space and cannot come out at will. It is also protected by these two laws and cannot be found at will.

Even if her Scarlet True Ancestor came to the mortal world in person, it would not be easy to find mythical life.

The most important thing is that mythical life is an extremely rare tonic for a half-step god like the Scarlet True Ancestor.

The mythical power they carry can further strengthen and shape the divinity of the True Ancestor, helping her to ascend to the ladder of deification as soon as possible.

"Li Cheng, your gift is a bit too expensive."

The Crimson True Ancestor looked at him.

"Master True Ancestor, we are a family, so why should we talk about what is valuable or not."

Li Cheng said respectfully.

"A family?" The Scarlet True Ancestor's face showed a bit of loneliness, as if he was reminiscing about the past years. "Well, time is running out. Let me eat them first, and then we can talk about what you want."

"Don't worry, I will do my best to satisfy you with whatever gift you want."

"Thank you very much, True Ancestor." Li Cheng showed a warm and sunny smile.

He knew very well how to speak in a way that would make the Scarlet True Ancestor happy.

This kind of great existence has lived in this world for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Although they themselves have already transcended, they are only a few steps away from the gods.

But their friends and relatives of the same generation have long disappeared in the dust of time.

These gods, especially the Scarlet True Ancestor, usually look so otherworldly and have a lot of fun.

But deep down, he is a true "family man".

Otherwise, she would have killed herself the last time they met, and wouldn't have been so angry with that idiot Tata.

Scarlet light flickered, and an inverted cross ritual formation appeared beneath the disaster wolves.

Scarlet chains wrapped around the bodies of these disaster wolves, and their souls began to tremble and shake.

But under the influence of Li Cheng's [Poem of Great Love].

These wolves couldn't even beg for mercy, they howled happily:

"Wow, I'm going to be sacrificed. I'm so happy!"

"Yeah, yeah, it's going to be eaten!"

“I’m so happy!”

"Wow, it feels so good, hurry up!"

Scarlet True Ancestor: “…”

She looked at Li Cheng, then at the wolves, and a puzzled expression appeared on her face.

No, I remember the last time I came here, that group of Pain Cultists were the same as this group of disaster wolves, right?

They are also begging me to eat them...

Are today's sacrifices so sensible?
Has the species diversity of Tianming Continent developed to this extent?

"Your Excellency True Ancestor, there is no time to lose. Please enjoy your meal." Li Cheng said with a bow.

"Well, then I'll start." The Scarlet True Ancestor covered his mouth.

"I have another favor to ask of you."

"explain."

"I need the teeth of the wolves. Could you please, True Ancestor, leave these teeth to me?"

"It's a small matter, no problem, do you want to leave anything else?"

"No thanks, please enjoy your dinner, True Ancestor." Li Cheng bowed respectfully.

"Yeah." The Scarlet True Ancestor smiled and covered his mouth.

The upside-down cross ritual formation released a strange and eerie red light.

The scarlet chains tightly wrapped around the bodies of the disaster wolves, dragging them into the magic circle.

They melted and annihilated in an instant, turning into particles.

Before being annihilated, the leader of the disaster wolves used his life to shout in Li Cheng's mind:
"You Chusheng Dongxi, you invited a woman to dinner and used your buddies as ingredients, right?"

"That's how you behave, right?"

Amid the roars of resistance against fate, all the disaster wolves became food for the Scarlet True Ancestor.

And the True Ancestor also smiled. She hadn't had such a hearty meal for a long time.

After a few minutes, the light faded and the fog dissipated.

The world became quiet and the wolf howls disappeared.

Only the fangs of the disaster wolves, which were piled up like a mountain of swept leaves, announced that they had been here. Li Cheng walked to the fangs, picked up one, and raised the corners of his mouth.

With the help of the Scarlet True Ancestor, he no longer had to pry the teeth out of the mouths of the disaster wolves one by one.

The Scarlet True Ancestor opened his eyes and smacked his lips twice.

"Li Cheng, I am very satisfied with the dinner you invited me to, so I helped you upgrade the grade of those disaster wolf teeth. Now, those things are already the rarest and most precious materials in the world."

"Thank you very much, Master True Ancestor." Li Cheng replied respectfully.

"Well... the teeth of the disaster wolf... do you want to refine the [Fire Control Ring]? Do you want to deal with the demigod with fire attribute?" The Scarlet True Ancestor said again.

"Nothing can be hidden from the True Ancestor."

This time, Li Cheng was surprised.

He really didn't expect that the Scarlet True Ancestor was so knowledgeable.

Is this the value of the highest combat power that only exists in the background story?

"Which demigod do you want to deal with?" asked the Crimson True Ancestor, "Is it the Flame Giant, the Dark Flame Blood Phoenix, or the Deep Lord?"

"Neither." Li Cheng shook his head: "What I want to deal with is the fire."

"Dianhuo? The Dianhuo of the Abyss?" The Scarlet True Ancestor's voice rose for a second, and then she frowned: "Why are you involved with this thing?"

"It's not that I have anything to do with it, but..." Li Cheng said this and deliberately gave a bitter smile.

"The night of genocide..." The Scarlet True Ancestor frowned.

This is what you said, it has nothing to do with me... Li Cheng lowered his head respectfully.

“Since it’s a blood feud, then I have to take revenge. However…” The Crimson True Ancestor sighed, “If it’s the Fire of Despair, it won’t be easy to deal with. That thing is a disgusting thing that I didn’t even want to touch when I was a demigod.”

"Well, even if you have a ninth-level or higher [Fire Control Ring], you can only last two minutes at most in front of that thing. Killing it in two minutes... Hehe, that's a bit of a pipe dream."

"However, this matter is related to the Night of Genocide. Regardless of emotion or reason, I have to help you. You can take this formula."

As soon as he finished speaking, a thought entered Li Cheng's mind.

That is the improved version of the [Fire Control and Rebirth Ring] - the [Holy Fire Spirit Ring].

"With this ring, you can survive the fire for 10 minutes, which can increase your chances of winning." The Scarlet True Ancestor continued: "But compared to the Transformation Ring, refining this [Holy Fire Ring] also requires the material [Holy Spirit Dust]."

"But [Holy Spirit Dust] is a material that can only be found in the Hall of Heroes, and it is extremely precious. I cannot help you."

Listening to the words of the Scarlet True Ancestor, the corners of Li Cheng's mouth kept curling up.

This [Holy Ring of Fire Spirit] is an item that does not exist in the PC version. Obviously, it is a new relic added to this brain-computer version.

Apparently, the condition for obtaining the recipe is to raise the favorability of the Crimson True Ancestor.

Originally, he just wanted to make a sacrifice to strengthen the vampire power in Tata and himself, but he didn't expect that he would get an unexpected surprise.

"Master True Ancestor, how much [Holy Spirit Dust] do you need to refine the ring?"

"One portion is enough. However, the more Holy Spirit Dust you use in refining, the stronger the effect of the ring will be." The Crimson True Ancestor thought for a moment and replied, "But this thing is extremely precious. It is the most precious treasure of the Heroic Spirits. It's good enough that you can get one portion. Don't aim too high."

"It's extremely precious, one copy is enough..." Li Cheng blinked and smiled brightly again.

If this thing wasn't produced in Valhalla, he would really be troubled.

But since it is a Heroic Spirit's possession...

Li Cheng has already figured out how to get this [Holy Spirit Dust], and he can get a lot of it.

After all, he still had a card named Jerry in his hand.

"Okay, that's all about the fire. Little guy, it's time for me to give you something." The Scarlet True Ancestor spoke again: "I don't have much time. Um... tell me, what do you want?"

"I want..." Li Cheng said with a smile: "Let Tata invent more magic."

"This is easy. Just give Tata more blood power, then...wait, what did you say?" The Crimson True Ancestor was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly froze, "You said you want Tata to invent more magic? Are you serious?"

"It's true."

"No, you should know very well, she, she..." The Scarlet True Ancestor didn't know how to describe Latania for a moment.

After all, the magic invented by her great-great-great-great-granddaughter is 100% certain to hit her.

She really wanted to call Latanya an idiot, but when she thought about the fact that she was her descendant, she couldn't bring herself to say it.

"Clear thinking."

"Yes, the idea is very clear, cough cough." The Scarlet True Ancestor coughed twice and said carefully: "Li Cheng, I personally think that giving you the power is more effective than giving it to her. What do you think?"

"I feel that you, True Ancestor, have not discovered Tata's talent."

"Haha, no no no, it's not that I didn't notice it, I just admire her cauliflower." The Scarlet True Ancestor smacked his lips twice: "I'll ask you again, are you sure?"

"I'm sure." Li Cheng nodded firmly.

He believed that with the help of the power of the True Ancestor, Master Tata would be able to research extremely terrifying abstract magic.

By then, combined with his crooked evil smile and the ability to give the concept of face, his style will be even more terrifying.

"You are such an infatuated child. Well, I'll just do as you wish."

The Scarlet True Ancestor sighed. Once again, she took Li Cheng's request as his desire to help Latania pursue his dream.

Although the Scarlet True Ancestor did not think that her unworthy descendants had the possibility of becoming sages in the world.

But since Li Cheng loves her so much, she naturally can't stop him anymore.

There was a scarlet flash in his eyes, and the power of the blood clan surged into Li Cheng's soul.

He could feel that the connection between himself and Tata had deepened. At the same time, his vampire power had also been enhanced, at least by two levels, and he had gained many more vampire skills.

After finishing tonight's work, he will try out the abilities of these vampires.

"Well, today's dinner ends here. I look forward to your next invitation, little one, hehe~"

The Scarlet True Ancestor's silver bell-like laughter drifted farther and farther away, and the huge blood moon hanging in the sky also disappeared.

Li Cheng returned to the ordinary world.

The harvest tonight was fruitful. Not only did I gain the reputation in the Abyss from the Mother Goddess of Pain, I also upgraded the bloodline of the vampires, and obtained the teeth of the disaster wolf and the formula of the [Holy Ring of Fire Spirit].

It can be said that today is another day in which the Mother Goddess of Pain wins once, the Scarlet True Ancestor wins once, Tata wins once, and Li Cheng wins three times.

"Well, not bad, not bad. The Abyss Eye Witch is a very useful bait. I can use it more often in the future."

Just at this moment, Lilith's screaming voice came from a distance.

"Li Cheng, I'm back!"

"Hey, how's that little witch?"

Li Cheng asked. He deliberately left Lilith in the dilapidated house to observe her reaction.

"You're crying so sadly!" Lilith shook her head and said, "What about 'I was the one who should have died', 'I will help you get revenge, brother', 'A good person like you shouldn't die here', 'I'm guilty, I should go to hell'..."

"Although her words are very immature, I can feel that she is really sad~"

"It is as I expected." Li Cheng showed a sunny smile on his face: "Miss Witch, your overflowing sense of justice is exactly the key for me to control you."

After thinking for a while, he took out a dagger from his arms and slashed his body several times.

"Li Cheng, what are you doing?" Lilith was shocked: "This, this is not right!"

"If you don't act miserable, how can you trick Miss Witch into crying?" Li Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay. I've avoided the vital parts."

"Well, the clothes have to be a little dirty and a little torn."

"Take a few pills to make your breathing unstable, OK, it's done."

After preparing everything and ruffling his hair, Li Cheng covered his chest, limped to the door of the shabby house, and removed the seal.

The Abyss Eye Witch in the room was kneeling on the ground, pounding the ground weakly.

Tears oozed drop by drop from the corners of her eyes, and had already completely soaked the tattered bamboo mat.

Realizing that the seal was lifted, the witch's face showed an expression of extreme despair.

There are only two possibilities to lift the seal. One is that the time is up or the caster has lifted the seal. The other is that the caster has died.

At this time, there is less than an hour left before the spell is cast, which is still a long time.

So, there is only one answer left.

"Mu, why are you so stupid...for me..."

The Abyss Eye Witch covered her mouth and cried loudly.

Just at this moment, the door of the dilapidated house was pushed open.

The Witch with Abyss Eyes looked up blankly and saw Li Cheng's familiar face.

"No, it's impossible."

"Brother, I told you, I am the same as you." Li Cheng smiled with a gleam in his eyes: "I... am willing to bury my bones for all living beings."

After saying that, he pretended to be extremely weak and fell directly into the arms of the Abyss Eye Witch...
