Bold Witch, Don’T Hurt My Husband

Chapter 24: Please, First Wife, Step Forward

The third floor of the Secret Technique Tower is different from the first two floors. On the first floor, any disciple of the Demon Sect who has reached the Transcendent Realm has a chance to enter and choose a secret technique for free. However, the second floor is only accessible to outstanding disciples within the sect or those who have made significant contributions, and they must also be recommended by someone.

To enter the third floor, one must be at least at the High-level Sea Transformation Realm, as it houses the true essence of the Demon Sect.

Although there are restrictions inside, even someone who has just entered the Upper Three Realms would find it difficult to take anything away, let alone reveal it easily.

However, the two of them easily entered. One was an elder of the sect, and the other held the token of the Upper Three Realms Patriarch, rendering the restrictions of the Secret Technique Tower ineffective against them.

Although they were able to enter, the ability to observe the secret techniques inside depended entirely on one's aptitude and luck.

As soon as they arrived on the third floor, Xia Fan began to look around. He was carrying a pile of jade scrolls in his arms, wishing he had brought a sack with him.

It was only now that he understood the joy of women shopping.

The space on the third floor was smaller than the first and second floors, and there were no hundreds or thousands of secret technique jade scrolls like downstairs. There were only a dozen or so floating light screens, each emitting different lights and depicting nine portraits and numerous spiritual positions.

"Are these also secret techniques?" Xia Fan turned to Lin Su and asked.

In response, the woman nodded and said, "These are the ancestors of my Demon Sect."

But before she could finish her sentence, Xia Fan took out Liu Shifei's token and was about to swipe it to make a payment. Lin Su quickly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Don't be foolish. With your cultivation at the Transcendent Realm, not only can you not learn them, but you won't even be able to see them. I'm afraid you'll be crushed!"

Xia Fan: ...

"You know my cultivation is low, so why did you bring me here? Just to make fun of me?"

But Lin Su ignored him and instead pointed to the many portraits and spiritual positions in front of them, saying, "Look over there!"

Hearing this, Xia Fan immediately turned his head and heard Lin Su's voice in his ear, "First, you need to know that secret techniques are not cultivation techniques. They are more like Divine Abilities, the Three Uniques of the Dao Sect, the Hidden Formation of the Celestial Fragrance Gate, the Righteous Qi of Confucianism, the Buddhist Dharma of the Buddhist Gate, the Sword Techniques of the Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, and the Sea of Knowledge of the Four Seas Pavilion. These are all means to deal with opponents. Among the nine portraits in front of you is a top secret technique of my Demon Sect—Please, God!"

"Please, God?" Upon hearing this, Xia Fan became excited. This was the first time he had heard such a prestigious name for a secret technique. It was not as ordinary as the Longevity Technique he was currently practicing.

"That's right, Please, God!"

"And I'm not afraid to tell you that there are only five people in the entire Demon Sect who possess this secret technique. Even your wife doesn't know it!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Fan couldn't help but be surprised, "Five people?"

"Yes, five people. Originally, there were six, but one fell ten years ago, so now there are only five left!" Lin Su's face lacked its usual mischievous expression as she spoke.

"If you want to learn it, just stand in front of the portrait and introduce yourself!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Fan carefully observed the nine portraits and realized that he had seen one of them before. It was the portrait that the sect master had worshipped when he got married, the ancestor of the Demon Sect.

"Alright!"

Xia Fan directly bypassed the various light screens and came to the nine portraits, clasping his fists and bowing, "Disciple of the Demon Sect, Xia Fan of Mirror Moon Valley, pays respects to the ancestors!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the portrait in the middle, the one he had worshipped during his marriage, emitted a spiritual light and swiftly entered his brow.

Seeing this, Lin Su couldn't help but sigh. She had gone through this process before, and even any Demon Sect disciple above the Sea Transformation Realm had experienced it. However, the last time there was a reaction was more than ten years ago with Xiao Fengshan.

That clear light was checking whether the person in front of it was qualified. If the person received recognition from one of the ancestors, their portrait or spiritual position would react. After all, inviting a god was not something to be taken lightly.

At this moment, Xia Fan stood still in place. After the clear light entered his brow, his consciousness was brought to a void, with only a faint light beneath his feet.

Xia Fan's hazy consciousness instinctively moved forward, occasionally seeing flashes of light like shooting stars on both sides.

After an unknown amount of time, a faint blue glow seemed to sense his presence and suddenly surged into his consciousness.

In an instant, Xia Fan felt a strange and incomprehensible method being imparted into his mind, and in reality, the third portrait from the right on the bottom row began to emit a blue light.

Suddenly, Lin Su, who had been indifferent before, widened her eyes like a copper bell.

"It's the portrait of the Seventh Ancestor, it's reacting!" Lin Su exclaimed in shock, covering her mouth.

The portrait of the Seventh Ancestor was the only female among all the portraits. The woman in the painting had an elegant temperament, somewhat similar to Liu Shifei, who was her master.

At the same time, Xia Fan slowly raised his hands and clapped them together with a "smack," performing the ritual to invite the gods.

"Xia Fan, disciple of the Demon Sect, requests the presence of the Seventh Ancestor," he said.

But before he could finish speaking, the blue light on the portrait of the Seventh Ancestor quickly disappeared.

Meanwhile, in Xia Fan's consciousness, the blue light that had smoothly merged suddenly encountered a red rope and was cut off. The red rope led to another place, where a terrifying presence could be felt.

In the secret realm of the Demon Sect's back mountain, Liu Shifei was sitting in a complex formation, with waves of ominous energy surging beneath the formation.

Although her strength had declined significantly from its peak, her foundation had become more solid. Even so, she was still in the Upper Three Realms. At this moment, she suddenly sensed something.

Since the day they got married, there had been a mysterious connection between the two of them. Especially with her luck power attached to him, this feeling had deepened even more.

And now, she felt as if her position was being threatened, a situation that had never happened even when Xia Fan signed seven marriage contracts in one day.

Without much time to think, Liu Shifei's aura erupted. Her divine soul enveloped in mana burst out along the connection between the two of them, quickly dispersing the blue aura.

But before she could regain her composure, her soul was unexpectedly attracted and attached to Xia Fan.

"Boom~"

Inside the Secret Magic Tower, Xia Fan's aura surged, especially the pressure of his level, which made Lin Su both shocked and excited. Another person who could invite gods had appeared in the sect. She quickly paid her respects:

"Lin Su, disciple of the Demon Sect, pays respects to the Seventh Ancestor!"

The next moment, Xia Fan opened his eyes, first looking at himself in shock, then glancing at Lin Su beside him.

"What is this... inviting gods?" he asked.

This question completely confused Lin Su. After all, the ancestral spirits summoned through the ritual were just the will left behind by the deceased, without any consciousness.

"The Seventh... Seventh Ancestor has come back to life?" she asked.

"It's me, Shifei!" Xia Fan subconsciously used his hand to tuck his hair behind his ear, the action appearing quite natural.

"Shi... Shifei?"

"No, just now the portrait of the Seventh Ancestor clearly reacted, and you're not dead, so how could you be brought here through the ritual?" he asked, full of questions.

From ancient times to the present, no one had ever summoned a living person, because that wouldn't be called inviting gods, but rather possession. Moreover, the living person wouldn't receive the decree of the gods.

"Master? No wonder I felt so familiar with that aura just now."

"I didn't expect him to actually master the secret ritual of inviting gods!"

Liu Shifei controlled Xia Fan's body while sensing and speaking to herself.

Because she was a living person with consciousness, she could control her own cultivation. Moreover, since they were originally husband and wife, her divine soul entering Xia Fan's body was incredibly natural and wouldn't result in a situation like Xiao Fengshan's uncontrollable vomiting of blood.

"There's something happening in the back mountain. You two go back to Mirror Moon Valley and wait for me!"

After saying that, Liu Shifei's aura quickly disappeared, and Xia Fan finally regained his senses.

"What the hell is going on? My wife actually possessed me?"
