The Witch Spirit God was shrouded in shadows. Opposite him, the doll floated in the air, letting out a strange laugh. "Would you be willing to join the Eternal Clan? Unfortunately, our power in this spacetime has been driven out. Otherwise, we could have taken you in."
"Your only value now is as my vessel. Gahahahaha!"
Xia Ziheng cried out in terror, "Wait! I have a secret, a secret!"
The Witch Spirit God laughed eerily. "What secret could an elder of a branch family possibly have? Just become my vessel." As he spoke, the doll drew close to Xia Ziheng, its pupils almost touching his face.
Xia Ziheng trembled, his pupils flickering rapidly. Terror had overwhelmed him. "I know the secret of the Wang family's Yellow Springs Water."
The doll stopped. The Witch Spirit God lifted his head, revealing a pale chin in the sunlight. "The secret of the Wang family's Yellow Springs Water? How would you know about that?"
Xia Ziheng swallowed. "Wang Yi left it to the Xia family, but our branch family kept it for ourselves."
"Wang Yi?" The Witch Spirit God was puzzled, then remembered. "The woman who once attacked Xia Shang as a Half-Ancestor and was eventually killed by the Lu family beneath the gates of the Dao Origin Sect?"
"Yes, her," Xia Ziheng said. "Because of Lu Tianyi, she couldn't be with Lu Feng. Instead, she married an elder of a branch family of the Xia family. She hated not only the Lu family, but the Wang family as well. Back then, the Wang family wanted another woman to marry Lu Feng, so they never helped her. They even arranged for her to marry into the Xia family. Because of this, she hated the Wang family as much as she hated the Lu family.
