Su Yun had a dream.
She couldn’t remember exactly what the dream was about.
She only remembered feeling very happy.
It was a kind of happiness she had never experienced before.
A joy that welled up from the depths of her heart.
In her haziness, there was a dreamlike woman with long pink hair.
When she opened her eyes again, she saw herself lying on the ground.
It wasn’t just her—almost all the witches and magic beasts were sprawled on the ground as well.
Only Su Qiuyue was lying on the sofa inside the door.
She was even wrapped in a quilt.
It seemed she was the first to wake up.
But what was strange was that Qian Wan’er’s and Mo Qingqing’s magic was still running.
At this moment, a strange lump of something had already appeared outside the Candy House.
Su Yun had a feeling in her heart.
She felt as if she could control that lump of stuff.
But she didn’t dare to act rashly.
Just sneaking to the door was already risky enough.
If she moved recklessly, she’d be doomed!
She had even briefly considered controlling that thing to wipe out all the witches and magic beasts and escape on her own.
But as soon as she thought about it, she felt an indescribable terror.
It was as if if she let her thoughts linger just a second longer, she would die instantly.
Thinking it over, she quietly crept to Mo Qingqing’s side and pretended to be asleep.
After a while, the witches gradually woke up one by one.
“Only those who have half a foot in the Laws are really strong…” Mo Qingqing said with a hint of unwillingness.
She could tell what had happened through that Odd Lifeform.
After all living creatures entered the dream world, Qian Wan’er woke up in the real world.
She bypassed Mo Qingqing and controlled the Odd Lifeform to wipe out all the magic beasts.
That scene… was a bit bloody.
“Stop sleeping and get up to clean this mess!” Mo Qingqing said crossly, giving Su Yun a kick.
“Uwaaah… Yes…” Su Yun scrambled up and ran outside to start cleaning up the aftermath.
“What are you planning to do with this thing?” Liu Heng asked.
“Though I’d love to take it back… it’s unstable, and could explode at any time.” Mo Qingqing sighed.
That meant she’d have to blow up this creation.
“The Elves’ side…” Liu Heng hesitated to finish her sentence.
She really wanted to steal the Elves’ sacred relic too.
But did any of them actually have the strength for that?
“No rush, let’s take it slow.” Mo Qingqing had calmed down as well.
She couldn’t even handle those mutated magic beasts that couldn’t use magic.
She shouldn’t be thinking about stealing sacred relics.
Even if the Elf tribe had the best tempers, they’d probably just lock her up and wait for her teacher to come pick her up.
That would be utterly humiliating.
Unless…
Mo Qingqing looked at Su Yun.
If a clueless slave went to steal something and got caught…
That wouldn’t be her responsibility.
Very soon, Su Yun finished cleaning up the battlefield.
Mo Qingqing divided the spoils into three shares.
She kept one for herself, while Liu Heng and Qian Wan’er each took a share.
Su Qiuyue simply chose to mooch meals.
Because of that, Su Yun had one more daily task—dragging Su Qiuyue to the table at mealtimes.
That’s right, no need to carry, just drag her over.
After exchanging a few words, the witches soon went their separate ways.
Once only Su Yun and Mo Qingqing remained,
Mo Qingqing finally spoke.
“I’ll teach you some magic and cultivation methods—learn well.”
“!”
“Thank you, Master!” Su Yun was overjoyed and couldn’t stop wagging her big tail.
She never expected to be rewarded after performing so poorly this time.
Mo Qingqing watched that tail, nearly whipping up a tornado, and gave a faint smile.
The ignorant remain ignorant.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
But she couldn’t be bothered to explain.
All she needed was Su Yun’s obedience.
Though she was sending Su Yun to be the scapegoat,
Mo Qingqing still brought out some proper advanced mage foundation cultivation books.
Su Yun had no idea.
Mo Qingqing had never intended to get her killed.
After all, Su Yun was the Law Vessel Mo Qingqing had spent her entire fortune to create.
If she used her as a firecracker, Mo Qingqing’s own heart would explode too.
“Beginner Spell Visual Guide—this one even has Illusion Analysis.” Mo Qingqing pulled out books she hadn’t used for years from the bookshelf.
After Su Yun had organized them by name, Mo Qingqing found it amazingly easy to locate whatever book she wanted.
“Other than those few rare editions, you can read all the books here. I only have one requirement—you must master stealth magic as quickly as possible!” Mo Qingqing said.
“Yes!” Su Yun hugged the books Mo Qingqing lent her, excited.
Magic!!!
This was magic!
As long as she could get stronger, she’d never have to worry about being suddenly killed again!
Mo Qingqing glanced at the guidebook once more and then said,
“Take off all your clothes.”
“Eh?”
Her big tail, which faded from sky blue to pink, suddenly froze in midair.
Her cute face became flustered.
But soon Su Yun put down the books and took off her maid uniform.
Mo Qingqing pulled over a stool and sat down, then produced a crystal stone shimmering with countless colors.
This was Ornn.
A crystal that contained all the Laws and massive magical power.
It was the ultimate item to help beginners step into the Magic World quickly.
“If you disappoint me, you’re done for.” Mo Qingqing said with some pain in her voice.
Su Yun looked at Mo Qingqing, at a loss.
The two of them were very close now.
So close that Su Yun could feel Mo Qingqing’s breath.
That faint stream of air tickled her skin.
Mo Qingqing placed Ornn on Su Yun’s chest and gently activated it.
Ornn immediately grew ethereal and gradually disappeared.
It was as if Su Yun had absorbed it.
A certain wizard discovered that if you used highly condensed magic crystals to stimulate and guide,
a novice mage could gain an absurd amount of growth.
The exact result depended on willpower, the item, and talent.
Yet after the first Ornn was used up, Su Yun only felt a gentle warmth.
And that was it.
The two of them stared dumbfounded for quite a while, but nothing changed.
Su Yun was still level 1.
Which meant the awakening hadn’t happened.
Mo Qingqing hesitated, but since she’d already used one…
If she didn’t go all the way, wouldn’t it be a loss?
Though she didn’t know how high the body’s innate potential molded by the Life Law could go,
nor how much magic Su Yun’s mind could handle,
at this point…
Mo Qingqing gritted her teeth and took out a second one.
“Nggh…” Su Yun quickly covered her mouth.
A sense of satisfaction flooded her body from every direction.
Mo Qingqing’s face tinged with pink.
She was starting to regret using Ornn.
“Keep going…”
She took a deep breath and brought out a third one.
This time, Su Yun felt something fill up inside her.
Not only was it full, it was starting to burst.
So full it was uncomfortable.
“Ha…”
Su Yun clutched her chest and panted heavily.
Seeing this, Mo Qingqing’s face flushed even redder.
But still, she gritted her teeth and pulled out a fourth Ornn.
The instant the Ornn melted,
Su Yun immediately felt something inside her break free.
