With this, Mu Ying no longer had to worry about time passing hastily in Emerald World, where she could only ensure her character’s safety by hiding in remote places, distancing herself from friends.

She then abandoned her previous plan of returning to Witch Forest to live in seclusion, preparing to head to Mermaid Kingdom instead.

Compared to returning to Witch Forest, she preferred to manage their Witch Grocery Store with Windsor and Senior Sister Rosie, occasionally meeting up with other witches for drinks when idle. It was not too busy, and she could devote herself to studying magic and magic potions.

It was neither too lively nor too quiet, both comfortable and interesting.

Even if one day Windsor and Senior Sister Rosie might also leave Crystal City to travel, Mu Ying would not mind much.

When that time came, she could also embark on a true witch’s journey, not rushing like before when she was collecting fragments. This time she could do as she pleased, following her inclinations.

If she liked a place, she would stay there for a while, either opening a small shop or renting a cabin. When bored, she would set off for the next destination.

In this way, Emerald World could serve as a spot to adjust her mood. Whenever she missed it, she could come for a visit. No matter how long she was away, it would always remain as she had left it, a haven for her soul.

As the flying carpet swiftly headed toward the sea, Mu Ying excitedly made a Dingling Flower call to Senior Sister Rosie and Windsor.

“What? You’re planning to come back to Crystal City?” Windsor’s surprised voice came through.

Rosie was also happy, just unsure why she had changed her mind, “Didn’t you say just the other day that you preferred Witch Forest and planned to go back there?”

“Witches’ fancies change day by day. After thinking it over, I believe the seabed is livelier,” Mu Ying said, eyes wide with a blatant lie.

“No witch is as fickle as you are,” Rosie said grumpily, “I’ll go tidy up your room later so it’s ready when you get back.”

“Yeah! I’m flying super fast. We’ll be able to meet again very soon,” Mu Ying replied, buoyed with excitement, planning to return to the seabed and thoroughly indulge with her sisters.

She celebrated that from now on she was completely free, a true witch, able to do as she pleased like all other witches, no longer tied down by this and that.

She had always envied the witches of this world. Although fortunate enough to possess a witch’s character, she ultimately couldn’t indulge without considering the benefits in the real world. So in this world, she had always lived to undertake tasks. Now, here, she could live entirely for herself, without worrying about delaying benefits in the real world.

Being relatively small, Emerald World seemed even smaller for witches with the ability to fly.

With full-speed flight, Mu Ying would reach the seabed in just a few days.

During the journey, Mu Ying was not idle. She thoroughly studied the World Book, reading through the historical accounts of Emerald World it contained.

This world was indeed a continuation of fairy tale stories.

There were indeed many fairy tales she recognized as having actually happened historically, but only eight would occur at the same time every hundred years. After three thousand years, these cycles would repeat.

Perhaps the kingdoms and people involved differed, but the core stories were recognizable—although the same stories, different times, places, and backgrounds made them vary significantly, and some even had entirely different outcomes.

Over the past century, Mu Ying had encountered several stories regarding Deep Blue Star.

She had carefully organized items mentioned in the World Book that had significant utility value, listed their transformation prices, and recorded them all in her own Witch’s Book.

She planned to transform them as needed later on.

She could also trade some of these items with other trialists.

After all, even if trading within her own group, others had to pay not only the Source Power needed to create the item from the World Book but also the actual cost of transformation, ensuring she wouldn’t lose anything.

If she traded with trialists from outside Deep Blue Star, there were fewer discounts, allowing her to profit without any disadvantage.

Among these, Mu Ying felt the Witch Bloodline was the most precious.

She had always believed that one could only acquire the Witch’s Bloodline incidentally when obtaining trial characters, benefiting from it, but after reading the World Book, she discovered it could also be created and physically transformed.

Yet the price was so high that even Mu Ying felt a sting.

After all, the Witch Bloodline was truly excellent. As far as the cultivation system went, although its limit wasn’t very high—not like careers in reality that could directly reach Divine Rank—it was still versatile enough with a long legacy and rich inheritance, possessing many wonderful uses.

For example, the Witch Bloodline had also brought many conveniences to her real-life self.

Thinking about it, if she had various different Witch Bloodlines simultaneously, her power would definitely rise to a new level. She wouldn’t have to worry about her attack power anymore, especially since the Red Witch, Purple Witch, and Black Witch were all skilled in combat.

Unfortunately, the compatibility of Witch Bloodlines was poor. She already possessed the Green Witch Bloodline; acquiring another would only lead to rejection. If lucky, the two bloodlines would fight each other and the winner would remain; more likely, both would be damaged, leaving her as the ‘battlefield’ worse off.

After reading the introduction to Witch Bloodlines in the World Book, Mu Ying now felt that her initial physical transformation and merging with the Green Witch Bloodline was quite risky.

Had it not been for her human bloodline that naturally had strong compatibility, and the Elf Bloodline that matched well and was equally powerful as the Green Witch Bloodline, she would have benefited from fortuitous circumstances. Not only the Elf Bloodline was purified, but the Green Witch Bloodline also settled down in her body.

If it hadn’t been for the Green Witch Bloodline she merged with initially, she might have terribly harmed herself at that time.

Thinking back, she still felt somewhat frightened.

For this reason, she didn’t need to worry too much about whether to transform and merge more Witch Bloodlines or to preserve her Source Power for later use in the Square World to create her own plantation in the Fragmented World.

However, she could no longer use other Witch Bloodlines, except for the Green Witch Bloodline.

But the ordinary ones she currently possessed were much the same and wouldn’t have any significant impact.

According to the records in the World Book about the origin of witches, the ancestors of the witches were eight ordinary girls who fled into the forest to escape war. When they were extremely hungry, they found a tree bearing fruits in eight different colors.

Each girl picked a fruit and ate it, leading to mutated bloodlines, each gaining a distinct special power—some could create wind, others could control plants, and some could produce flames from their hands, marking the emergence of the first witches.
