"What is going on?"

The three of them, Wang Jie and his companions, were stunned.

They stared intently at "Xue" not far behind them.

Isn't this the Witch?

But wasn't the Witch supposed to kill Yang Tian? Why would she help restore the Demonic Array for Yang Tian?"

"This cannot be the great Witch!"

Ling Dong insisted firmly.

Wang Jie's face was solemn as he channeled his Spiritual Breath into "Xue," feeling an immense and terrifying aura.

"This aura is undoubtedly Demonic Technique!"

Wang Jie said in a deep voice.

"Demonic Technique? Then she is indeed the great Witch!"

Ling Dong said this and then flew towards Xue. Before he even reached the Witch, he respectfully said, "Great Witch, we three elders are willing to heed your commands."

Xue landed on the ground, looking at Ling Dong with a cold expression.

She was merely a Residual Soul of the Witch and had long lost her consciousness.

"Witch, these three are bad people; you should kill them quickly!"

Wang Yue shouted upon seeing Ling Dong run back.

This little girl thought the Witch had changed her nature because she helped them.

But she only shouted once and saw that the Witch completely ignored her, standing there coldly.

This made Wang Yue nervous: "Is this Witch an enemy or a friend?"

"Let's wait and see!"

Wang Ying pulled Wang Yue behind her, looking cautiously at Xue.

Yang Tian chuckled inwardly, but on the surface, he pretended not to know anything.

"Great Witch, now that you're back, please seize the Demon Embryo. The Demonic Array has been restored by you and can be activated once more!"

Wang Jie also came up and said respectfully.

Yet Xue stood there, looking at them with a cold expression, not making a move.

This made Wang Jie frown. He took another look at Xue and confirmed that she was indeed the Witch. However, the expression in her eyes seemed unfamiliar to him.

"Wang Jie and his companions are nothing but dogs. They have ulterior motives when they get close to you. Witch, please take action and kill them."

Ling Ying couldn't help but say this.

Seeing the Witch standing there without responding to Wang Jie, Ling Ying assumed the Witch had changed her nature.

But after she said this, the Witch still stood there quietly, showing no intention of acknowledging her.

Suddenly, Ling Ying couldn't help but wonder aloud, "What is wrong with this Witch? Is she an enemy or a friend?"

Yang Tian chuckled inwardly.

He naturally knew that Xue was a Residual Soul of the Witch, long since unconscious, and asking her to kill was impossible.

"Great Witch, if you don't want to seize the Demon Embryo, you should kill Yang Tian quickly. Leaving him alive will cause endless trouble!"

Seeing the Witch unmoved, Wang Jie targeted Yang Tian instead.

"Kill!"

And this time, the Witch finally moved.

She soared towards Wang Jie and his companions, and before reaching them, she unleashed a palm strike.

This palm strike was very simple.

No Martial Techniques were involved.

But its power was terrifying because it was executed using Demonic Technique.

"Great Witch..."

The faces of Wang Jie and his companions changed.

They couldn't understand why the Witch had chosen this moment to act.

When asked to seize the Demon Embryo, the Witch did nothing.

When Wang Yue and Ling Ying asked her to kill Wang Jie's group, the Witch still did nothing.

But now, the Witch acted.

Boom!

A roar resounded.

The Witch's palm strike sent a powerful Demon Breath towards Wang Jie and his companions.

The three were sent flying heavily.

As they crashed to the ground, they vomited fresh blood, half dead.

"Is this Demonic Technique? Why is its power so terrifying?"

Ling Dong asked desperately.

Wang Jie looked up, staring intently at the Witch, still unable to comprehend why she would destroy them.

"Big brother, what's going on? Why didn't the Witch act before, but she did now?"

Wang Yue asked in confusion.

Yang Tian glanced at Xue, feeling warmth in his heart.

He knew very well.

Xue acted because of him.

Wang Jie wanted Xue to seize the Demon Embryo, Wang Yue wanted her to kill Wang Jie, and Ling Ying also wanted her to kill Wang Jie, but none of these mattered as much as Yang Tian.

Xue acted because Wang Jie wanted to kill Yang Tian.

But Yang Tian knew when to stop, fearing others might suspect that Xue wasn't the Witch, so he used his Divine Sense to speak to Xue, "Xue, disappear and return to the Spiritual Space!"

"They want to kill you, so I want to kill them!"

Xue responded using her Divine Sense.

"There's no need. They're already gravely injured; they can't stir up any trouble!"

Yang Tian, worried that Xue might expose her identity, quickly urged her to return.

And Xue obediently vanished in a flash.

The next second, Yang Tian felt Xue appear within his Spiritual Space.

"Where's the great Witch?"

Wang Jie and his companions looked around. When they couldn't see the Witch, they exchanged glances and disappeared from the grassland in an instant.

All around was silence.

"Yang Tian, what happened?"

Wang Ying suddenly looked at Yang Tian.

"I don't know."

Yang Tian shook his head.

"But that was the Witch just now. She didn't return to kill us but instead helped us restore the Demonic Array and defeat Wang Jie. There's obviously something wrong with this situation!"

Wang Ying said in a deep voice.

"Yes, why did the Witch help us?"

Wang Yue quickly asked.

"Perhaps after the Demon Eye of the Demonic Array shattered, the Witch became interfered with."

Yang Tian pretended to know nothing.

"That's the only explanation that makes sense. If the Witch weren't affected by the Demonic Array, she wouldn't have helped us attack Wang Jie and his companions. Most importantly, at that moment, she didn't seem like an enemy or a friend, so it can only be explained by the interference of the Demonic Array!"

Wang Yue said thoughtfully.

"Hmph!"

Wang Ying snorted coldly, then said to Yang Tian, "I can't help but feel that the Witch was protecting you."

Yang Tian's heart skipped a beat: "President Wang, why would you say that?"

"Wang Jie asked her to seize the Demon Embryo, Yueyue and Ying wanted her to kill Wang Jie, yet all she did was ignore them. But when she heard Wang Jie wanted to kill you, she attacked him. Isn't that protecting you?"

Wang Ying said seriously.

Yang Tian's heart skipped again.

Unexpectedly, President Wang, this beautiful woman, noticed.

But considering Wang Ying was one of the four famous beauty presidents of East Sea, shrewd, quick-thinking, and experienced in reading people, her detecting the Witch's favor for Yang Tian was normal.

"Yes, big brother, hearing sister say it that way, I also think the Witch was protecting you!"

Wang Yue's large black eyes suddenly locked tightly onto Yang Tian.

Even Ling Ying, beside them, started examining Yang Tian thoroughly, as if wanting to see right through him.

Yang Tian felt a surge of frustration.

This President Wang, nothing escapes her notice.

Yet outwardly, Yang Tian still replied, seemingly helpless, "Then you tell me, why would the Witch protect me? Did she change her nature, or do I have the strength to make her protect me?"

"This..."

Wang Yue bit her finger, unable to answer.

But Wang Ying coldly snorted, suddenly saying, "I think the Witch is right by your side!"

Yang Tian's heart leaped as he feigned an angry reply, "Then tell me, where's the Witch? If I had that ability, would I be hiding like a mouse, avoiding the Witch's attacks? President Wang, if it weren't for the fact that you're the child's mother, I'd have already taught you a lesson for this nonsense!"

Wang Ying's face remained silent, assessing Yang Tian from head to toe, finally stating, "You'd better have no connection with the Witch. If you do and I find out you're involved with the Witch, I'll immediately terminate this!"

Yang Tian touched his nose, smiling inwardly: Would you discover the Witch's Residual Soul is in my Spiritual Space?

Meanwhile, Wang Yue cheerfully laughed, "Sister is jealous, she's jealous of the Witch!"
