Deep within the Dragon Palace, the white dragon girl put on a cloak and veil. She carried a heavy backpack and stood before the tall, elegant woman.

The woman rested her chin on one hand and placed a chess piece down before glancing at the blushing dragon girl who was nervously biting her lip.

“It’s no trouble,” she said. “After all, when Your Majesty was attending court, I was helping with governance almost every day.”

“Ah!” The white dragon girl looked up in surprise, finding it hard to defend herself under her master’s charming gaze. After a moment, she puffed her cheeks and said with slight dissatisfaction, “Although I often ask for your guidance, I’ve been studying and working hard too!”

“Indeed,” the woman said softly.

She shifted her gaze from the dragon girl’s face to the vast sky beyond. “The previous emperor passed away early, and Your Majesty inherited the throne when you were still inexperienced. Someone your age hasn’t yet experienced life’s hardships. You shouldn’t have taken on authority so soon. You should spend more time gaining experience in the mortal world.”

“Yes! I’ll go to the Wuji Sect and confront Yino!” The dragon girl clenched her fist and nodded seriously.

The woman narrowed her golden dragon eyes and smiled seductively. “Your Majesty, be cautious. Whether he’s of phoenix lineage or not, you should proceed carefully… This journey west is for your personal growth, not to catch a thief.”

“Personal growth…”

“Yes, personal growth. Yino’s background is merely the reason for your descent to the mortal realm. What’s important isn’t what you do with Yino, but your experiences along the way. Try making friends with humans, observe their daily lives, listen to how they discuss current affairs, see what these ordinary people truly desire…”

The woman smiled knowingly and focused back on the dragon girl. She extended her hand, with crimson holy flames appearing gradually. Though her slender white hands with golden patterns touched the girl’s face, they didn’t burn—only provided gentle warmth.

“Once Your Majesty has traveled widely and truly understood the joys and sorrows of this world, you’ll return capable of handling court affairs.”

“I understand!” The dragon girl nodded eagerly, gripping her backpack, determination in her beautiful eyes.

The woman nodded and gave her a delicate red jade earring. “Wear this. When you encounter things you don’t understand, speak to the earring with your thoughts, and I’ll answer through it.”

“Thank you, Master!”

“Be careful on your journey. The Western Region is full of demons and monsters. Don’t get kidnapped into some demon’s lair.”

“Don’t worry, Master! I carry the legacy of the true dragon! I can handle all kinds of demons and monsters!”

As the sun set, the white dragon girl smiled brightly, waving her small fist in the air. Changli raised her eyebrows, watching her with a gentle smile.

…

Western Region.

After several months, another round of the Witch Tea Party was being held. Unlike last time when she arrived late, Jinyue came particularly early today and enthusiastically greeted every witch. The several tails behind the red fox girl showed her excellent mood.

“Well, if it isn’t the Liuli Holy Maiden~” Passing by the “Life Witch’s” seat, Jinyue casually draped her arm over Liuli’s shoulder, acting overly familiar.

The red-dressed holy maiden had been sitting with her eyes closed. Hearing Jinyue ‘s voice, she sighed lightly despite her annoyance, pretending not to know her.

“How have you become so well-behaved after just a few days? You’re not tying me up and hanging me from trees like you did in the secret realm?”

The green-haired girl in red tightened her brow, still holding back her anger, though her hands were clenched beneath her blood-colored sleeves.

Liuli didn’t know what she’d done to deserve this. Was it because her personality somehow invited others to mess with her? At the Full Moon Sect, she had to deal with Mei’s harassment, and at the Witch Tea Party, she had to put up with Jinyue ‘s annoyance…

“Hmm~” Seeing Liuli’s silence, Jinyue smiled smugly and bounced back to her own seat, her mood became even better.

Across from their table, several witches were eyeing Liuli and Jinyue strangely. In just a few months, their relationship had become so close… yet just months ago, Liuli had been strangling Jinyue while interrogating her.

“Jinyue, do you have time to join us in the Western Region?” At some point, a black-haired girl in a classical purple-black dress spoke up from one side of the long table.

Though her appearance and voice matched a young girl, her speech carried a heavy sense of authority. The black aura surrounding her was completely different from the other witches present.

Compared to the others, her aura seemed more like that of a witch born from the Demon Abyss.

Jinyue looked up and met the gaze of the black-dressed girl sitting in the “Fallen” seat.

“Join what?”

“The Oracle Witch has made a new prediction. In about two months, a new demon portal will open at the Western Province City border.”

The black-dressed girl spoke calmly. Sitting in a shadowy position, the slanting sunset cast half her face in light, making her cold beauty appear more mysterious and demonic.

“This is a great opportunity to slaughter humans and collect souls!”

“Jinyue, haven’t you always enjoyed creating chaos?”

“I remember two years ago, you were captured by a human nun in the Western Region. You almost died at human hands…”

“Now, that nun has been promoted to Morning Star Holy Maiden, and she’s currently in Western Province City. Why don’t we use the demon portal’s fury to settle both old and new grudges in Western Province City?”

By the end, the black-dressed girl was laughing coldly, her purple-black demonic eyes filled with hatred.

As she spoke, Jinyue turned in surprise toward a girl wearing a cotton jacket with a cowlick not far away.

This girl sat in the “Oracle” seat, but her pupils were dim and dispirited. She seemed completely uninterested in the other witches’ discussion, simply sitting there drinking red tea filled with sugar cubes and eating her favorite small cakes.

Jinyue knew that the Oracle Witch was also a pitiful little thing. From childhood, she had drunk demon potion, gaining supernatural perception beyond normal humans, but losing her human emotions in the process. She had essentially become a prophecy ATM for the Witch Tea Party.

This was the essence of being a “witch.”

For every gain there’s a loss. Except for Jinyue, nearly every witch sitting here had made a deal with a demon lords from the abyss.

They drank demon potions, and the demon lords promised to fulfill one wish. But the scales of the world are always balanced—the price for gaining supernatural power, besides falling to become a witch, was the loss of certain functions, becoming an incomplete monster.

“Forget it, I have other things to do. I probably can’t go,” Jinyue sighed, waving her hand dismissively but still politely declining the black-dressed girl’s proposal.

However, her attitude toward the latter was much more careful than toward Liuli. After all, Jinyue wasn’t stupid. Liuli might belong to an evil cult, but her nature was still relatively normal. This black-dressed witch was truly evil to the core. Jinyue generally didn’t dare show off in front of such a purely wicked person.

“Really? You won’t come even for such a good revenge opportunity?” The black-dressed girl raised an eyebrow, staring suspiciously at the red fox girl.

She said calmly, “Jinyue, since you joined the Witch Tea Party, you’ve been eager to attend every tea session, but you seem to never actually participate in any of our organized activities.”

“The Witch Tea Party isn’t some mandatory organization, is it?” Jinyue waved dismissively, unconcerned.

The black-dressed girl stared into her eyes but ultimately didn’t speak further. “I’m not forcing you. I’m just curious what deal you made with the Mother Goddess in the demon abyss. Now with the demon portal approaching, you, as a witch, seem completely indifferent to it?”

“I just have other tasks. It doesn’t mean I won’t participate in this demon portal event.”

“Is that so.”

The atmosphere grew tense and cold.

The black-dressed girl stared coldly at Jinyue, then after a moment of silence, turned her gaze toward Liuli.

Liuli understood immediately and nodded slightly. “I’ll bring another colleague from the Full Moon Sect to participate in the demon portal event.”

“Hehe, the Liuli Holy Maiden is indeed reliable.” The black-dressed girl’s position seemed simple—as long as someone came to cause destruction in the Western Region, she was excited.

“Speaking of which, I have a plan,” she continued. “The human holy maiden stationed in Western Province City is a rare Pure Evil-Dispelling Holy Physique that appears only once every hundred years. Why don’t our Witch Tea Party and the Full Moon Sect join forces to capture that human holy maiden during the demon portal event, force her to drink demon potion, and push her into the demon lair… making the humans’ most pure holy maiden fall to become a witch, who will then sit with us drinking tea?”

The black-dressed girl went on and on.

Across the table, Jinyue seemed to recall something, raising her eyebrows slightly with disgust.

She glanced at Liuli beside her and saw that the latter showed no emotional reaction. Though Liuli nodded in agreement on the surface, her thoughts had clearly drifted far away, probably thinking about her precious sister and Yino again.

As the black-dressed witch finished her twisted speech, at the other end of the long table, in the seat marked “Pleasure,” a long-eared, busty elf woman had already listened until her face flushed red with excitement. She stood up and slapped the table: “Great plan! Nothing is more dramatic than making a holy maiden fall to become a witch!”

Jinyue looked back, staring at those swaying huge breasts, thinking these two together were even more disgusting.

She sighed, resting her face on her hand, finding the conversation increasingly boring as the image of that human boy appeared in her mind.

Somehow, Jinyue had gradually started finding these crazy, perverted information exchanges at the Witch Tea Party boring.

In the past, she would have excitedly stood up to enthusiastically discuss how to corrupt the holy maiden and cause as much trouble as possible.

Hehe~ This must be love~

After all, I’m not like those pitiful creatures hiding in dark corners, thinking every day about how to take revenge on the world, with no one to love or care for them…

Jinyue smiled sweetly to herself with satisfaction.

But as she looked up, she met the gaze of the red-dressed holy maiden, who was also resting her face on her hand, lost in thought.

The latter’s expression matched hers surprisingly well, as if also imagining something about a certain person.

Tch…

Just like Yuebai, also a simp!
