At this time, in addition to hundreds of members of the Witch Society, dozens of people were outsiders.

And these people were able to find this place because of their own ability, so they were able to find their own way in, and it was because of this that the people of the Witch Society did not expel them.

"Everyone's almost here, right?"

At this moment, an old man with a wrinkled face, a white robe, and a beard that was almost pulled to the ground walked to the center of the crowd with a long cane.

He is the Grand Elder of the Witch Society, Danyton, and the only light mage of the Witch Society, he used to be the high priest of the Church, but he joined the Witch Society for various reasons.

Among those present, except for Maria, he was the oldest and oldest.

However, he is from the Duanmu faction, and he is also one of the elders that Maria fears the most.

She didn't understand how Duanmu Jingyun managed to win over Daneton.

This old guy who doesn't eat oil and salt hardly interferes in the affairs of the Witch Society, but as soon as he speaks, it must be imperative.

"Great Elder, Sijah has not yet arrived. A black-clothed elder beside Danedon said.

"Sijah? He's dead. Denyton said indifferently.

"Dead? how could it be...... He's the Archmagister, and he has the Staff of Athoth...... He's ......."

Danyton glanced at the elder beside him, "Do you want to say he's a death mage? ”

Cold sweat broke out on the elder's forehead, what Danedon hated the most was death magic, but it was almost an open secret that many people in the witch society practiced death magic.

Originally, I thought that Danyton would ignore internal affairs and should not have turned a deaf ear to what was going on in the window. But at the moment, I found out. He actually knew that Sijah practiced death magic.

"I wanted to wait for the new president to take office. Carried out by Elder Duanmu, since he died before this, forget it, the time is coming soon, Ms. Duanmu, please come to us. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Elder Danidon. ”

Duanmu Jingyun took small steps and strolled to the twelve elders.

Denyton is in the middle. The other eleven elders stood on Daneton's left and right.

"Ms. Duanmu, are you willing to accept the president of the Witch Society?" asked Daniton.

"Yes, I accept. Duanmu replied lightly and lowered his head slightly.

"In the name of light, I grant you the light of wisdom. Daneton's staff rested lightly on top of Duanmu Shock's head.

The staff flickered with a white light, and instantly disappeared into the top of Duanmu Shock's head.

At this time, the black-clothed elder beside Danedon spoke, "Ms. Duanmu, are you willing to accept the baptism of darkness and open the way for the future of the Witch Society. ”

"Yes. I do. ”

The black-clothed elder's staff landed on top of Duanmu Jingyun's head: "In the name of darkness, I give you a heart of loss. ”

"I am in the name of depravity. Grant you endless perseverance. ”

"I thought ......"

The twelve elders successively used the magic of their own identities to enlighten Duanmu Jingyun.

In fact, these spells are useless to Duanmu Jingyun, but this is a necessary ritual to take over as president, and even the Witch Guild is not exempt from vulgarity.

Although the blessing of Elder Sija was missing, no one cared.

At this moment, Maria walked up, holding the Ring in both hands.

"President Duanmu, please accept my blessing, I express my sincerest respect and gratitude to you in the name of magic, please accept this gift of magic. ”

Duanmu Jingyun took the Holy Demon Ring, put it on his fingers, and raised the hand with the Holy Demon Ring high.

"I swear in the name of the president of the Witch Society that I will inherit the rituals of the Witch Society, and I will let the era of witches come again. ”

The Holy Ring erupted with powerful magical power, and the Holy Ring, which was full of vast power, shone like a rainbow-like pillar.

There was a hint of surprise in Maria's eyes, what a powerful magic!

She was able to make the Holy Ring generate a torrent of magical power!

The eyes of many people at the scene showed sparkling colors, some were greedy, some were surprised, some were awe, and so on.

It seems that he has underestimated her strength again!

Maybe she can really beat herself.

Maria thought in her heart, but she didn't back down in the slightest, and the battle intent in her eyes was even stronger.

Anon glanced at Maria not far away, then turned his gaze in other directions, and in the midst of the crowd, he found the figure of the muse.

The muse was hiding behind the crowd, she seemed to sense Anon's gaze, and looked at Anon as well, and after the two eyes met for a moment, she had already looked away and returned to the scene.

"Lady Maria, as the president, I would like to sincerely challenge you, I want to know if I am really qualified to inherit your glory and make the witch society stronger, please accept my invitation. ”

After officially accepting the president, Duanmu Jingyun took the initiative to say to Maria.

There was an uproar at the scene, and no one expected that Duanmu Jingyun would take the initiative to challenge Maria.

However, Maria did not feel the slightest surprise, because Duanmu Jingyun was always the most unexpected person.

Any of her actions were not surprising, and the challenge to her initiative was something that Maria had anticipated.

"Thank you for your trust, Elder, and I am willing to have a fair and just duel with you, so that I can understand your greatness, wisdom, and power more thoroughly. ”

"Yes, fair and just. Duanmu nodded and took off the Holy Ring he had just put on, and Danny took it with both hands.

Everyone took the initiative to retreat and open a clearing, leaving only Maria and Duanmu Jingyun.

"In my mind's eye, this scene has come up countless times. Duanmu looked at Maria with emotion.

The breeze was blowing, and the field ushered in a refreshing breath, without earth-shattering war drums, and without bleak slaughter.

The two women stood on the field, whispering to each other.

As if they were not enemies, but old friends they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

"I know there will come a day, just before you actually stand in front of me. I didn't even think about it. It's going to be you. Maria was also very emotional.

"Is it because of my weakness?"

"Nope. It's because I thought you didn't have enough time, and from the first time I saw you, I knew that you were excellent, not inferior to mine, but twenty years is too short for me to imagine how it took you twenty years to reach the heights that I have built up in two hundred years. ”

This is what Maria admires most about Duanmu, and no words can describe Maria's mood at the moment.

There is no women's crotch tearing war between them. They didn't pull each other's hair and spit in each other's faces.

They are all the same kind of people, the same pride, the same arrogance, the same power.

"Twenty years is indeed too short, but there is only so much I can do, because you are in front of me, so I have to reach your heights in twenty years. ”

Duanmu Jingyun looked at Maria seriously, Maria shook her head with a wry smile, it turned out that she had made a mistake.

It took Duanmu Jingyun twenty years to reach the level of rivaling herself, not how strong she was. It's because he's too strong.

It turned out that it was not Duanmu Jingyun who caused all this, but himself.

It is impossible for Duanmu Jingyun to take a step forward. This is also the limit of what she can do, because she is so strong, she has reached the point where she is as strong as herself, she has no goal to catch up, and she has lost the motivation to catch up.

At least until today's decision is made, she won't be able to move any further.

"Do you think you have what it takes to defeat me now?"

"I've outdone you, in areas you don't know. A bright smile suddenly appeared on Duanmu Jingyun's face: "What I once gave up has actually become my proudest achievement, don't you say ridiculous?"

"You say your child?" was so smart that even if Duanmu Jingyun said it vaguely, she could say it in a word.

"yes, he's a head taller than me, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to see him grow. Duanmu Jingyun's face was very complicated.

Outsiders couldn't hear their conversations, and looked at the parents who had not made a move on the field for a long time, but they thought it was a tense confrontation.

"If this time is over, will you go and tell him?"

"No, I want to keep this secret in my heart forever. Duanmu shook his head with a smile: "He is my pride, but I can't be his pride, I hope he feels that I am dead." ”

Maria frowned: "You are not good like this, what I want is for you to fight me seriously, at least to prove that the opponent I chose is not wrong, if I had known that you had such a thought, I should have done everything to kill him, at least this will make you have enough hatred to face me." ”

"Grandma...... He didn't hate you, not all the time. ”

Suddenly, a boy in the crowd shouted loudly, and everyone looked at the boy in amazement.

Duanmu Jingyun covered her mouth and looked at the boy in amazement, at this moment, she could no longer hide the joy and excitement in her heart, and tears could not help herself.

"You can lose this duel, you can't die!" the boy shouted.

Maria looked at the boy in surprise, when did this boy appear?

She had the impression that there was no such boy among the people who came just now.

Bai Chen had to speak, because he saw the determination in his mother's eyes.

And after he heard the conversation between Duanmu Jingyun and Maria, he couldn't hate her anymore.

No matter what happened in the future, at least for now, Bai Chen didn't want her to die.

The blood was thicker than water, but it was released in Bai Chen's body at this time.

Since she can't call her mother to her face, at least she can't feel sad.

Maria retracted her gaze and refocused her attention on Duanmu Jingyun: "It looks like you've recovered." ”

Duanmu Jingyun wiped away the tears on his face and took a deep breath.

"Maria, you are more upright than I thought, and I am not as good as you in this regard. ”

"You're more emotional than I thought, and if I lose this duel, I should probably experience human emotions too. ”

Duanmu nodded and said, "I hope you can get out of here alive." ”

"It's the same with you, I don't want to kill a child's grandmother in front of him. (To be continued.) )
