Chapter 12: Law Patterns

“Boom….”

The off-road vehicle sped along.

Su Yun only glanced a few times out the window before quietly hugging her own tail and sitting in the corner.

In her previous life, she suffered from severe motion sickness, so she dared not look around too much.

Yet her curled-up, adorable appearance only awakened Mo Qingqing’s girlish heart.

“Pa pa.” Mo Qingqing patted her own springy thigh.

“Ah?” Su Yun looked at Mo Qingqing in confusion.

A bit uncertain.

“Chu chu.” Mo Qingqing raised her brows and made a sound like teasing a puppy.

Only then did Su Yun realize.

She hurriedly crawled over and gently sat down on Mo Qingqing’s lap.

It was soft, and very warm.

“Mm~” Mo Qingqing took a deep breath and rubbed Su Yun’s little head with her nose.

Comfortable.

Lin Mo glanced back at the two of them but said nothing.

For some reason, the motion sickness Su Yun had expected never came.

Instead, Mo Qingqing’s intimate gestures left her flustered and at a loss.

Until a small hand started misbehaving, sneaking up under her maid outfit.

“Eh?” Su Yun’s face instantly turned crimson.

Her big round eyes looked nervously at Lin Mo.

“So soft and smooth~” Mo Qingqing whispered softly into her ear.

“Ugh….”

What is this…

Why are you doing this here….

But in an instant, the flush on Su Yun’s face faded.

What replaced it was a touch of melancholy.

Right.

To them, she wasn’t even a person…

When she held kittens or puppies, she was like this too.

She would touch them however she pleased.

Even if someone noticed, they usually wouldn’t say anything.

At most, they’d make a few jokes.

But those jokes didn’t mean anything to small animals.

Yet very soon, Su Yun’s face turned shy again.

Because she knew Mo Qingqing liked seeing that expression.

She just liked seeing her flustered.

And… it really is… strange….

Whatever, just let it be.

Mo Qingqing played with her for quite a while, and only let go when Su Yun felt numb all over.

“Meditate. There’ll be use for you once we get there.” Mo Qingqing said.

At these words, Lin Mo glanced back again.

“You sure? So confident?”

“Of course, it’s fine.”

As she spoke, she smoothed Su Yun’s long hair,

Su Yun didn’t understand what they were talking about.

But her intuition told her it was about her.

Damn.

How did she get dragged into this again?

Although she guessed what might happen, Su Yun showed no change on her face.

Meditate.

Only by becoming stronger could she survive.

If only she could surpass Mo Qingqing….

Su Yun closed her eyes and didn’t think further.

She couldn’t be sure they didn’t have a way to read her mind.

What was behind that gate?

Heavenly Path.

Su Yun checked the pillars several times.

Only after making sure nothing was wrong did she begin constructing the Heavenly Path.

A palace of white jade in the sky.

So the Heavenly Path must be of white jade.

Golden patterns.

But what should the pattern be?

Su Yun didn’t want to just carve at random.

So she slowly opened her eyes.

Although the two didn’t see her as human, she wasn’t mute.

Besides, the two of them seemed in a good mood right now.

So should she…

Su Yun hesitated in her heart.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to act cute.

She was afraid it might backfire.

Maybe… something in between?

After thinking for a while, Su Yun asked softly in a gentle voice.

“Master, may I ask you a question?”

“Oh? Go ahead.” Mo Qingqing raised an eyebrow.

This little thing actually took the initiative to speak.

“Well, I want to draw some patterns on the palace. Could you give me some advice?”

At these words, both witches fell silent.

Lin Mo even turned around to look at her.

“Uh…woo….” Su Yun shrank into a ball in fright.

Did she say something wrong?

“Could she actually be a genius?” Lin Mo was the first to speak.

She gently stroked her chin, looking at Su Yun thoughtfully.

Mo Qingqing also lowered her head to look at Su Yun.

A trace of doubt rose again in her heart.

Su Yun really didn’t seem like an ignorant peasant….

No, she must be! This is just a coincidence.

Mo Qingqing shook her head.

Her instincts refused to believe it.

After all, enslaving peasants and enslaving humans were two very different things.

The latter was against the law.

“Don’t be afraid. No one’s tried what you’re suggesting yet.” Lin Mo said.

Witches and sorcerers have only truly opened their eyes to the world and stepped out of ignorance for 177 years.

Many things are still in the exploratory stage.

“This is a new topic….” Lin Mo murmured to herself

“But I don’t have time for it right now….”

She fell silent for a moment, then took out a purple-yellow gradient feather pen and a notebook, and began to draw.

Very quickly, a strange pattern brimming with traces of life appeared in her hand.

And soon, she drew even faster.

Very soon, a pattern imbued with an intense sense of time was finished.

Su Yun was stunned.

She couldn’t understand the second one at all.

She could barely make out the first one.

It was a very mysterious way of drawing.

Not just a simple image.

Though it was only a piece of paper, Su Yun saw multiple dimensions.

It was as if Lin Mo had forced a four-dimensional or even five-dimensional image onto a two-dimensional world.

The one with the power of time was even more outrageous.

It didn’t even seem like something from this world.

“It’s fine if you don’t understand. Draw this one of life first, then the time law one.” Lin Mo said.

She was directly turning her understanding of the laws into visual patterns.

She only had some understanding of the law of life.

But she knew the law of time inside out.

“I’ll do my best.” Su Yun took the drawings and, after just a glance, felt dizzy and nauseous.

As if her soul couldn’t withstand the aura they emitted,

Too terrifying.

So this is the power of law?

Mo Qingqing, as if already expecting this, just glanced at it and turned her head away.

Without becoming a high-level mage and letting one’s soul undergo metamorphosis, coming into contact with the laws would overburden the soul.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have planned to risk stealing the elves’ holy relic.

“Take it slow, there’s no rush.” Lin Mo said before turning back around.

As if she were driving herself.

Completely unaffected,

But Su Yun paid no mind to any of that.

She was already completely immersed in the laws.

Contrary to what the other two thought.

When she saw the law of time, Su Yun felt nauseous.

But facing the law of life…

There was nothing.

She even felt a little excited.

As if she had been favored by the law of life.

Life…

Su Yun’s eyes flickered slightly.

This fit well with her own ideals.

Why do people seek to become immortals?

Because immortals have eternal life, and only then can they roam heaven and earth unhindered.

So a path with life as its foundation is entirely viable.

“Let’s do this then.”

The so-called law.
