"Furthermore, on this Nine States Continent, itâs highly probable that over decades, or even a century, the individuals he has assimilated with Witch Power have spread across the entire world. Wherever they might be, if he so desires, he can elevate their cultivation to the realm of a Great Wizard."
"AH!" Xiaosuisui gasped, covering her mouth in terror.
"Did I scare you?" Princess Ata asked, looking at Xiaosuisuiâs reaction and suddenly feeling somewhat guilty. "Iâm sorry, I forgot that youâre a child. The things I said were indeed frightening. I must have scared you."
Xiaosuisui quickly shook her head. "Itâs not you who scared me. Itâs just that right now, thereâs someone among us who has been assimilated by Witch Power. Iâm in the Dream Realm now. If the Great Wizard possesses someone at this moment, wouldnât Seventh Uncle and the others be in grave danger?"
At this realization, Xiaosuisui began to worry.
"Didnât you say that before this, you all killed an assimilated person whom the Witch God possessed?"
Xiaosuisui nodded.
"And you said that there are many assimilated people on Wangwu Mountain."
Xiaosuisui still nodded.
"So how powerful are these people? Have they cultivated their Witch Power to the Sixth Realm?"
Xiaosuisui couldnât tell, but she had once compared these people with Granny Lan. "They are still some distance away from Granny Lan."
Princess Ata finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Then it should be fine. Their cultivation levels arenât that high yet. Moreover, their minds might not have completely disappeared. The Great Wizard canât just possess them as he pleases and grant these puppets the cultivation of a Grand Master."
Upon hearing Princess Ataâs words, Xiaosuisui finally relaxed completely.
"So, among those tens of thousands of assimilated Puppets with Witch Power, the Great Wizard canât just possess whoever he wants, and he certainly canât just infuse them with Witch Power as he pleases, right?"
Princess Ata nodded vigorously, praising her sincerely. "You truly deserve to possess such great fortune, having cultivated Heart Perception for so long. You understand one point and can infer three others from it."
Xiaosuisui rubbed her small head. "Hehe! I was just following your train of thought, Sister."
Princess Ata stroked her head and said with satisfaction, "You might be the one sent by the heavens to save this world."
Princess Ata said this half-jokingly, half-seriously, but Xiaosuisui took it to heart. She touched her chest. "I always feel like I was born to save the world. Otherwise, why do I always encounter such unfortunate incidents!"
Princess Ata let out a soft snort. "PFFT... Look at you, getting all puffed up over being the worldâs savior!
"In the future, this world will depend on you to protect it!"
Princess Ata held her and giggled, her words full of teasing.
Xiaosuisui blinked, rubbing her head.
It seemed as if a voice in her mind was saying the same thing. "Go! Reestablish the order of the Celestial Dao, bring everything back to its rightful place, and let the living creatures of this world grow naturally!"
This voice was elusive. It seemed to be male, yet also female, and was very difficult to discern.
"Whatâs wrong?" Seeing her rubbing her head, Princess Ata couldnât help but ask with concern.
"Nothing!" Xiaosuisui shook her head hastily. "Princess Ata, what should we do now? Can we help those people on Wangwu Mountain dispel their Witch Power?"
Xiaosuisuiâs large eyes stared intently at Princess Ata, somewhat worried she would say it was impossible to disperse their power.
If their power couldnât be dispersed, then the only way to eliminate the future threat would be to kill those people!
"If their minds havenât completely disappeared and they havenât entirely become the Great Wizardâs Puppets, then itâs possible.
"Iâll write down the Cultivation Technique to help them disperse the Witch Power right now. Take it to your Uncle Yun Kuo, and have your Seventh Uncle and the others look at it together. Itâs not difficult; the three of you should understand it at a glance!"
Seeing Princess Ata quickly write down the method, Xiaosuisui immediately said, "Okay, thank you, Sister Ata!"
Princess Ata looked quite sheepish and quickly said, "This is the karmic debt of our Nanjiangâs Great Wizards. I dare not accept your thanks."
She pushed the Cultivation Technique into Xiaosuisuiâs hand and urged her, "Take it quickly! Hurry and send me out. If your beautiful sister sees me suddenly fall asleep, sheâll probably panic."
Xiaosuisui also knew their current situation was likely very precarious, so she took the items and sent Princess Ata out.
As soon as Princess Ata left the Dream Realm and opened her eyes, she met the gazes of the Emperor and Xie PanâEr, who were staring at her with wide, anxious eyes.
"Princess Ata, youâve finally woken up. How are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Xie PanâEr asked with concern.
Princess Ata shook her head and glanced around. It was daytime, and sunlight streamed in from outside. The sounds from outside were noisy; it was the Yunhang County constables searching everywhere for criminals.
Princess Ata asked, "Didnât those people come in to search? How have we not been discovered yet?"
Xie PanâEr shook her head and whispered, "The National Master set up an Array; they canât see us!"
Princess Ata nodded in understanding. "I see. By the way, I just saw Suisui. She said sheâll have Da Feng come find us. When that happens, just tell Da Feng what you want it to do; Da Feng can understand you!"
Xie PanâEr was very surprised. "You... you saw the Princess?"
The Emperor also quickly interjected, "What did you say? You said you just saw Suisui? Youâre not talking in your sleep, are you?" The excitement in his voice was unmistakable.
"At first, I also thought I was dreaming, but the Princess told me she pulled me into her Dream Realm.
"Your Majesty, Miss Xie! You donât have to worry about the Princess anymore. She and Divine Hunter Ji have already escaped the Array of Heaven, and now theyâve found Wangwu Mountain!"
"Wang... Wangwu Mountain? Theyâve already found Wangwu Mountain? Did she tell you about the situation there? Did they find the residents from both sides of the Yunhang Coast?"
