The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO-Chapter 536 - 438, White-Haired Witch (First Update)
(PS: The Witch arc is now complete, and starting tomorrow, I'll begin the new arc: The Empress of Great Tang!)
In almost an instant, the Witch had successfully cultivated the essence of the Demonic Technique.
The Demonic Technique itself is an existence that defies the heavens.
Anyone capable of comprehending the Demonic Technique possesses extraordinary talent and insight.
Some people cultivate using the purest form of talent.
Others often have some sort of epiphany that allows them to break through the Celestial Mandate.
Just like the Witch at this moment, she relied on Xue's memories, and for the first time in over two thousand years, she fell in love with a man.
Originally, to cultivate the essence of the Demonic Technique, she had to kill Yang Tian.
Because Yang Tian had imprinted an emotional barrier on her soul.
That's why she used a wisp of soul to lure Yang Tian here.
But the situation took a completely unexpected turn for her.
When Wang Jie and the others launched a Spirit Breaking attack on the Witch, Yang Tian chose to fight to the death, knowing full well that the Witch had lured him here to break the Demon Technique Emotion Body within him, and then kill him.
Yet, Yang Tian still rushed forward without hesitation.
In that instant, within the Witch's soul, the emotional barriers formed by the three Demon Seals—Ghost King Seal, Corpse King Seal, and Demon King Seal—shattered.
Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!
The three Demon Seals transformed into light and converged onto the Witch's body.
In that moment, the Witch mastered the three Demon Seals, overcame her emotional barrier, and grasped the essence of the Demonic Technique.
This was a realization based on love.
Having comprehended love, she severed her emotions, breaking through the Celestial Mandate.
But at this moment, the Witch aged instantly, her hair turning white.
"Yang Tian..."
The Witch lightly flicked her hand, and an icy Spirit Needle appeared.
Whiz!
She gently waved it.
The icy Spirit Needle shot toward the enormous Spiritual Breath formed after Wang Jie and the others' Spirit Breaking attack.
With just a light strike, this terrifying attack was shattered.
"What kind of attack is this? My heavens, Witch, you've successfully cultivated the essence of the Demonic Technique, what terrifying power is this!"
Wang Jie's furious voice echoed in midair.
Subsequently, the surroundings fell into dead silence.
The souls of Wang Jie, Ling Dong, and Wu Xian died completely, never to reincarnate.
Yang Tian fell to the ground.
Bearing the brunt of Wang Jie and the others' terrifying attack, he was at the end of his strength.
He lay on the ground, quietly gazing at the Witch floating in midair.
No, she should be called the White-Haired Witch.
In almost an instant, the Witch's hair turned snow-white.
An indescribable feeling surged within Yang Tian's heart; he couldn't understand why he had just saved the Witch.
The person before him was no longer Xue.
And that wisp of soul was merely a manifestation deliberately cast by the Witch to lure Yang Tian here.
Yet, when the Witch was pinned by Wang Jie and the others using the Array, Yang Tian still intervened without hesitation.
Perhaps it was because the Witch's eyes flashed with a moment of tenderness.
That bit of tenderness reminded Yang Tian of Xue.
So in that instant, Yang Tian acted.
But looking at the Witch now, Yang Tian felt a bit nervous.
He couldn't grasp the situation, why had the Witch's hair suddenly turned white? Yet one thing was certain, a vast Spiritual Breath hovered around the Witch, informing Yang Tian that she had successfully cultivated the essence of the Demonic Technique.
Was it because of him that the Witch successfully cultivated the essence of the Demonic Technique?
Does the Witch's success in cultivating the Demonic Technique mean chaos will ensue in the world?
Thinking like this, Yang Tian felt a headache.
He shook his head, dispelling all the distracting thoughts from his mind.
"Whatever happens, so be it."
Yang Tian closed his eyes, allowing his thoughts to sink gradually.
He felt very tired and wanted to sleep at this moment.
He didn't know how much time had passed when he heard the Witch's clear voice in his ear: "Yang Tian..."
Yang Tian opened his eyes and immediately saw the Witch's crystal-clear face.
The Witch's hair was already a patch of snowy white, with two strands of bangs hanging by her ears, adding to her endless charm.
However, Yang Tian sensed a vast and terrifying aura from the Witch.
He naturally understood that the Witch had cultivated the essence of the Demonic Technique.
The Witch had already cultivated the Nuwa Divine Technique, and having now mastered the Demonic Technique, there probably wasn't any Ancient Martial Artist in Huaxia who could rival the Witch.
Yet, from the Witch's eyes, Yang Tian could not perceive any hostility.
This brought a sense of relief to Yang Tian.
Yang Tian sat up from the ground, noticing that his injuries had long been healed.
He wanted to ask the Witch a few questions but saw her sitting there calmly, quietly watching him with eyes full of tenderness, and he fell silent.
Even though he wasn't sure if the Witch was a friend or foe, one thing was certain: in her eyes, Yang Tian saw the shadow of Xue.
That alone was enough.
Yang Tian thus lay there peacefully.
The Witch by his side did not intend to disturb him.
He didn't know how long passed before Yang Tian stood up and flew toward the small town outside Changbai Mountain.
The Witch followed closely behind.
They flew back to the hotel at the foot of Changbai Mountain in the small town.
"Big brother, where did you go?"
Seeing Yang Tian return, Wang Yue was the first to greet him.
But when Wang Yue saw the Witch beside Yang Tian, she was suddenly startled, her entire body stiffened: "Big brother, isn't this the Witch? Why is she here?"
Upon saying this, Wang Yue's face turned pale with alarm.
"It's fine, the Witch won't kill randomly." After saying this, Yang Tian then asked the Witch beside him, "You won't act indiscriminately, will you?"
"Rest assured, henceforth, without your permission, I shall not take a life."
The Witch said quietly.
"What is going on?"
Wang Yue was dumbfounded.
She eyed the Witch up and down, seeing the Witch cling to Yang Tian like a dependent bird, she was utterly shocked, tugging on Yang Tian, and asked in a whisper: "Big brother, have you conquered the Witch?"
Yang Tian gave Wang Yue a slight knock on the head: "Where is your sister? We'll head back to the East Sea tomorrow!"
"Alright, I'll go tell sister now that you've conquered the Witch!"
Wang Yue ran off happily.
Soon, Wang Ying and Ling Ying were also alerted: "Yang Tian conquered the Witch?"
When the two women saw the Witch beside Yang Tian, submissive and obedient, they were utterly astonished.
To think, the formidable lady Witch was conquered by Yang Tian so docilely.
"Yang Tian, why is the Witch's hair white?"
Taking a moment of opportunity, Wang Ying asked.
"Because she has successfully cultivated the essence of the Demonic Technique, in other words, the Witch has mastered both the Divine Technique and the Demonic Technique, and no one in Huaxia is her match anymore!"
Yang Tian said truthfully.
"Oh my god!"
At this, a hint of shock crossed the eyes of Wang Ying, Ling Ying, and Wang Yue.
They never imagined that the Witch, who appeared so meek beside Yang Tian, was such a terrifying existence.
"Yang Tian, you must cherish her well; possessing such a formidable Witch, you will be the strongest king in Huaxia!"
Wang Ying said coldly and then walked ahead.
Although she spoke lightly, from her back view, it was apparent that her mood was far from pleased.
Yang Tian smiled, instructing everyone to rest, and they'll set off to the East Sea tomorrow.
That night, Yang Tian meditated in the hotel, while the Witch also sat quietly beside him, silently watching Yang Tian.
This feeling gave Yang Tian a sense of peace.
Soon, he entered a state of deep meditation until the next morning when he opened his eyes to find the Witch beside him was already gone. He looked around the room and noticed an inscription on the wall: Yang Tian, I love you, but I must face my trial. I will wait for you in the Immortal Realm...
