I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 1013. Miss Mu's Best Friend
Mu Qingtong?
Huang Zhaoyue had a slight doubt in her heart, as she naturally knew Mu Qingtong.

The black-dressed woman, who has suddenly risen to the top of the spiritual music world in the past two years, can be seen in the millions of urban areas of the 51st region of the empire.

Her singing voice resounded throughout the empire, and her beauty was known to every household.

Even the upper echelons of the major military powers had heard of this singer.

It is said that Mu Qingtong has some connection with the Elemental Church, has a close personal relationship with the Elemental Saintess, and is under the protection of the Elemental Church.

However, this is just hearsay; the imperial upper echelons don't usually pay attention to the affairs of these folk celebrities.

Huang Zhaoyue had carefully studied Mu Qingtong's singing voice, and it did indeed possess a strange magic that made it irresistible. Even when she tried to imitate it, she couldn't.

The woman in the black dress slowly descended the steps formed by purple light.

As she approached, Huang Zhaoyue was stunned. An alluring aura rose from her soul, making her inexplicably want to get closer to the woman in the black dress.

Unlike Xia Feng, whose bloodline clashed with hers and whom she disliked, the closer the woman in the black dress got to her, the more relaxed and calmed she felt.

It's like the other extreme of Xia Feng.

Before they knew it, the woman in the black dress was standing right in front of them.

Xia Feng saw Huang Zhaoyue's fox-gray vertical pupils staring intently at Miss Mu. The two looked at each other, their eyes slightly narrowed, as if there was a tense atmosphere between them.

He quickly warned Huang Zhaoyue in his mind, "Don't do anything reckless. If you anger her and she refuses to save you, then I won't be able to help you."

As he spoke, he looked at the woman in the black dress, about to say something, when he saw Mu Qingtong raise her right hand and extend it in front of Huang Zhaoyue, saying in a cool and indifferent voice: "Hold it."

Huang Zhaoyue did not hesitate, nodded, and extended her slender hand to gently grasp the hand of the woman in the black dress.

Xia Feng: "?"

Two slender, white hands clasped together, a strange purple light flashed by, and Huang Zhaoyue's vertical pupils showed a hint of surprise as she looked up, "This is..."

"Demon God System".

"Huang Zhaoyue, you have the talent to become a demon."

The woman in the black dress stared intently at the talented woman with a calm gaze, and said softly, "Become my subordinate, and I will teach you to become a demon."

"???" Xia Feng stared at their clasped hands, bewildered, before finally realizing what was happening. He slapped the woman in the black dress off her arm, gasping, "She's my subordinate! Mu Qingtong, what are you trying to do?"

"Oh?" The woman in the black dress glanced at him with amusement. "Can't you tell? I'm poaching your boyfriend."

"."

Xia Feng's eyelids twitched. No wonder he asked him about his relationship with Huang Zhaoyue earlier; so that's what he was up to!
Are you trying to poach everyone around me, you devil!
Huang Zhaoyue withdrew her hand and shook her head: "I still have a collaboration with Xia Feng."

Seeing that she didn't agree, Xia Feng breathed a sigh of relief. That's good, at least the Imperial Concubine keeps her word.

"It's alright. Mr. Xia will be my loyal dog sooner or later. He won't object to you becoming my subordinate."

"?"

"I object!" Xia Feng narrowed his dark eyes slightly. "Miss Mu, she doesn't want to go either. It's not right for you to force her like this."

The black eyes and golden pupils met, and seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Huang Zhaoyue pursed her lips and remained silent, momentarily at a loss for words. She hadn't expected to be so popular.

However, she disliked being subordinate to others, and becoming Xia Feng's subordinate was only out of necessity.

She wasn't interested in the olive branch extended to her by the woman in the black dress. "It's really not good, then so be it." The woman in the black dress shifted her gaze and extended her hand again, "Huang Zhaoyue, how about we start as friends?"

"?"

Friend? You must be joking, Miss Mu! Xia Feng felt that the meeting between these two was not what he had expected.

The word "friend" is a very rare one for Miss Mu.

Of course, this was equally rare for Huang Zhaoyue; one could even say she had almost forgotten that the word 'friend' even existed in the world.

Both of them are proud, even aloof, people. How could they possibly become friends?

Huang Zhaoyue froze, staring at the woman in the black dress with some confusion.

Xia Feng was right; this woman, like her, was a person with an eccentric personality.

Although they only exchanged a few words in person, she easily discerned that this woman was actually quite similar to herself in some ways—both were extremely arrogant to the point of loneliness. The only difference was...
The woman in the black dress enjoys solitude, controls solitude, and is like the only monarch in the world.

She was tormented by loneliness, trapped in a cage. She appeared powerful, but she was a lonely wolf king with nothing but corpses and bones behind her.

His cool, serene golden eyes gazed at her quietly as he said he wanted to be her friend.
Huang Zhaoyue's vertical pupils widened in surprise for a moment, her gaze unusual, but she still nodded, reached out, and grasped the woman's hand again, nodding softly:
"good friend."

She had always been very interested in the woman Xia Feng had mentioned.
Now that they've met, the powerful aura of that person, even more aloof than her yet able to control everything with ease, certainly didn't disappoint her.

It even made her somewhat envious.

Perhaps becoming friends with her would allow me to see for myself what kind of person Mu Qingtong really is.

Seeing this, Mu Qingtong reached out and pulled Huang Zhaoyue behind her, her eyebrows curving slightly. "Since she's my friend, then Mr. Xia, she's no longer your subordinate. Well, to put it another way, she should be called your 'best friend'."

Best friend? Huang Zhaoyue blinked, lost in thought.

"See that!" Xia Feng raised an eyebrow, having caught a loophole. "Huang Zhaoyue, this woman's desire to be your friend is a lie; she's really targeting me. She's not sincere at all; she's just playing you."

Huang Zhaoyue was still pondering the implications of the word 'best friend' when she heard Xia Feng's words. She raised her eyes indifferently and said, "Oh."

"."

Oh? And then? That's it? Xia Feng facepalmed. He suddenly realized that he was the clown, actually worrying that the two arrogant women might not like each other when they met.

Whether he likes them or not is unknown, but Xia Feng certainly doesn't like either of them.

Seriously, I'm speechless. Best friends? More like fake best friends!
But then I thought about it,
At least Miss Mu's attitude shows that she is willing to help Huang Zhaoyue solve the problem of the Locked Dragon Well.

"Alright, alright, since it doesn't really affect the final goal, Miss Mu can do whatever she wants. Whatever, I won't argue with you about this nonsense anymore, let's get down to business."

With that, Xia Feng clicked his tongue, turned around, and left, returning to the airship.

Mu Qingtong and Huang Zhaoyue whispered to each other for a long time in the back, one with a slight smile and the other with a surprised expression, chatting and laughing.

Xia Feng vaguely heard the two address each other as 'Qing Tong' and 'Zhao Yue'. What followed was a more private conversation.

With their abilities concealing their conversation, Xia Feng could no longer eavesdrop.

"No way, you two really became best friends so naturally?" Xia Feng's face darkened, and she shouted, "Hurry up, let's set off to find Teacher Fu!"
