Chapter 6203: What Do You Know?

Orchidcore was a trusting individual and picked up one bean to take a closer look. It was ordinary and hasn’t been augmented or refined in the past.

“Are you sure these beans will be useful?” He asked in a polite tone.

“Just watch, Child, there is a reason why my witchcraft is special.” Black Witch Monarch gloated.

“These things can truly exorcise ghosts?” Monk Zhu asked skeptically because the trinkets on the altar belonged to the mortal world.

“Haha, better than those baldies at Lankavatara for sure.” He laughed, seemingly content with his joke.

He then took out something wrapped meticulously with paper and carefully unwrapped it. The others got on their toes and stretched their neck, captured by curiosity.

However, the things inside shocked them - a locust of insects including centipedes, spiders, and many more...

They were dead and seemingly fried in a pan before.

“I didn’t know you brought some snacks.” The slow-witted Mu Hu came over and grabbed a handful.

“Idiot, they’re not snacks!” Black Witch Monarch became startled and wrested them back.

Unfortunately, Mu Hu still got a few into his mouth. He chewed, swallowed, and nodded approvingly: “That was tasty.”

“Don’t even think about it. They’re my precious treasures.” Black Witch Monarch entered a defensive position, guarding the remaining ones.

“Hahahaha!” Princess Chen laughed and pointed at Mu Hu: “You actually ate his exorcism tools? How were they?”

“Good.” Mu Hu nodded.

“You call these things precious treasures?” Monk Zhu didn’t like him so he jeered.

“Lil’ Monk, you don’t understand, each of these cuties contains endless power.” He glared in response.

“...” Princess Chen didn’t find them cute at all and got goosebumps.

“Endless power?” Orchidcore still didn’t find anything peculiar after picking some up. However, they did smell deliciously.

“Hand them to me.” Mu Hu thought about eating them again.

Black Witch Monarch was faster this time and grabbed them back: “What do you know, each cutey represents a demon god and its power.”

“A demon god?” The others exchanged glances.

Black Witch Monarch arranged them on the altar before taking out a string of garlic.

“Are you here to exercise or stir fry vegetables?” Princess Chen laughed again.

“Once again, you are displaying your ignorance. These are my supreme witch flames, Celestial, Divine, Immortal, Ancient...” He said.

Orchidcore came closer again and found the garlic pieces to be similar. There was no flame inside them.

“No flames.” He shook his head.

“Because you don’t have the talent, you can’t see the witchflames with your common eyes.” Black Witch Monarch said with disdain.

Despite Orchidcore’s mild temper, he felt slightly frustrated because he was a genius from the Mu Clan.

“They’re just garlic, there’s no such thing as witchflames.” Princess Chen said.

“This is why all of you are average at best, seeing water as water and mountain as mountain. You do not see the mysteries beyond.” He sneered.

“Well said, to see mountain as water and water as mountain, it’s a different state.” Li Qiye clapped approvingly.

“Thank you, Young Noble, I couldn’t have put it better.” Black Witch Monarch was proud to receive the praise.

“Let me have a taste too.” Mu Hu only cared about the garlic itself.

“Stay away!” The livid monarch looked ready to kick the incoming youth.

“So stingy, it’s probably not even tasty.” Mu Hu dodged it and gave up.

“Are you sure you know what you’re doing?” Li Xian asked.

The monarch ignored him and continued setting up the altar.

Although this was perfect for Li Xian since he didn’t want an actual exorcist, the guy looked more like a chef.

“Don’t worry, I will take care of all the ghosts at night.” The monarch smacked his chest.

“You have to be careful, anger them and it’ll be dangerous.” Li Xian said since the guy insisted on doing this.

“Finished, just missing one thing.” The monarch eventually said and left for something before the confused crowd.

“Young Noble, is this going alright?” Li Xian whispered to Li Qiye.

“There are many strange things in this world, shut off your common sense and use the heart to observe, perhaps you will learn a few things.” Li Qiye said.

“So this will be effective?” Li Xian didn’t expect this answer.
