The Starshine Moss on the walls of the secret chamber emitted a soft rustling sound, while Aelia’s Silver Moon Earrings shimmered in the ethereal blue Halo as she Zhen Chan.
She pressed the swaddled infant close to her Heart, the bloodstains from the Ice Crystal freezing her Pi Bo into brittle shards, while the baby’s warm fingers curled around her dangling Hair Tips.
“Madam, be careful!” Qin Si lunged forward to catch the falling Crystal, but his Fingertip was scorched by the Star Sand gushing from the well.
The Purple Crystal, which recorded thirty years of secret history of the Magic Castle, traced a meteor-like Track in the deep well before being swallowed by the inverted phantom of the Magic Castle.
Leonard straightened up against the wall as the Starlight Dagger suddenly buzzed.
When his shadow touched the Light Spot cast by the dagger, the Ground abruptly began Emerging with twenty-three Blood-colored Insect Nest totems—each corresponding to a countdown number flickering among Luna’s Golden Hair.
“What does Father want to explain?” The elder brother’s Wheelchair rolled over the scattered Star Sand, and his Ear’s Golden Runes resonated with the Devouring Demon Swarm seeping from the wall cracks. “Did you ever consider that while feeding these soul-devouring creatures with Mother’s Bloodline, the Geomancy of the Magic Castle had already been hollowed out?”
Suddenly, Brother San clutched his forehead and collapsed to the ground as his Leonard’s Magic Amplification Ring shattered.
Those illusions and curses that once captivated him reassembled in the air, piecing together a scene of Leonard meeting with Leonard's Concubine, revealing what was termed as Leonard's Last Night.
The Second Brother’s Contracted Sword unsheathed on its own, reflecting a scene of betrayal where a supposed close friend was merely a pawn in Father’s game.
Luna suddenly let out a soft giggle, her pupils swirling with the unique essence of a Great Mage, known as Yin Hui.
Feeling a warmth at her Collarbone, where the Guardian Sigil burned, Aelia recalled that it was an Oath Totem drawn by Leonard on their wedding night twenty years ago, now cracking inch by inch as truths were revealed.
“Madam, please look.” Suddenly, Qin Si pointed at the well wall, where an improvised map drawn by Luna with Star Sand was emerging.
The baby’s finger, stained with blood from the ice crystal, pointed at the location marked as the Rose Garden, situated at Seven Inches along the Magic Fortress Leyline —the site where tomorrow’s Lunar Eclipse Festival would be held.
Aelia's White Nails dug into Palm as she finally noticed her husband Leonard's Sword, transformed into the Starlight Dagger, moving stealthily.
Just as the tip of the dagger was about to touch Luna's Swaddling, she swung Pi Bo, sweeping up the scattered Star Sand. The frozen silk, enhanced by magic, turned into sharp blades, forcing Leonard back three steps.
"So you even scheme against your own flesh and blood?" The Second Young Master suddenly stepped forward, sword raised in front of Mother. Jian Feng swept away a piece of Hei Yu from Father's shoulder—those were the companion scales of the Devouring Demon Insect Emperor.
The falling Hei Yu burned in mid-air, emerging from Ashes as a Swarm devoured the terrifying Magic Fortress Barrier known as Leonard's Last Night.
Luna suddenly struggled and reached out her small hand; Ice Crystal Bloodstain blurred mysterious runes on Qin Si's record book.
When Aelia's Lacrima struck the center of the runes, those bloodstains suddenly rose into mist, revealing the method to break the Insect Nest watered with Rose Dew during the Lunar Eclipse.
"Mother, Ming Ri Yue Shi..." Third Young Master Lucius's words were cut short as the entire secret chamber shook violently.
Lucius's In Hand Star Sand spilled like a waterfall, Sandy Gravel beneath everyone's feet spelling out a bloody Warning: twenty-three minutes until the Swarm breaks ground.
Leonard suddenly clapped his hands and laughed heartily. The black Obsidian on his Earlobe cracked open a fine seam, from which three golden-glowing Devouring Insects emerged. "My dear Aelia, did you really think this girl is our daughter?" He kicked aside the Wheelchair pressing down on Eldest Son's shoulder. "Twenty years ago, the Pregnancy Spirit Potion you drank was mixed with shards of a Great Mage’s soul..."
Luna let out a sharp Loud Cry, and butterflies formed from Star Sand flew out from her Infant Hair.
As the tenth butterfly shattered against the black Obsidian Zhui Zi, Leonard’s cold smile suddenly froze—behind him, the Starlight Dagger slowly adjusted its direction, its blade tip aimed at the faintly visible Insect Emperor Mark on his back.
An ethereal echo of Contract Spirit resonated from the bottom of the well; the countdown of Lunar Eclipse overlapped with the Swarm's hatching Moon Phase on the wall, creating a blood-red Light Spot.
Aelia tore apart her fractured Guardian Necklace and pressed the Sapphire adorned with their Family Crest into Luna's Palm.
As the gem touched the Infant Fetal Blood of Shan Na, a chorus of insect wails echoed through the underground of the Magic Castle.
Leonard's fingertip suddenly burst forth with a Dark Purple Arc, attempting to seize the Starlight Dagger suspended in midair.
The Devouring Demon Swarm sensed its master's fury, coalescing into an inverted vortex within the Dome of the secret chamber, gnawing at the Star Sand Moss and creating jagged cracks.
Aelia's ice crystals on Pi Bo shattered in response, while the Sapphire refracted Light Spots that wove through Luna's golden hair to form a Defense Formation, rebounding all incoming Electric Arcs.
"Do you dare deceive even the Contract Spirit?" Aelia handed the swaddled infant to Qin Si, as a Cracking Guardian Sigil at her collarbone suddenly oozed Golden Red Light Mist.
Ancient runes, once engraved in wedding vows, rose from her Skirt Hem, transforming into twelve Burning Oathblades that surrounded Leonard. "Luna's fetal blood can awaken the Magic Fortress Leyline; listen—"
As if to affirm her words, a Harp Sound from the Earth Vein Spirit echoed from the depths below.
The Magic Fortress Barrier, gnawed by the Swarm, rippled with an Emerald Color, temporarily suppressing the countdown of the Blood-colored Insect Nest.
Third Young Master Lucius's Magic Amplification Ring attracted a Star Sand Stream, forming a Micro Defense Array in his Palm—an Ancient Demon Rune taught to him by Luna using Ice Crystal Bloodstain.
"Father, stop!" The Eldest Son on the Wheelchair suddenly cut his Palm, allowing blood to stain his Ear and Golden Runes.
The Devouring Demon Swarm emitted a piercing Screech, with several turning to gnaw at Leonard's Black Feather Cloak.
The Second Young Master's Contracted Sword sensed his brother's Bloodline; Jian Feng ignited with Silver Holy Flame, incinerating the Devouring Demon Insect Emperor Wing that attempted to ambush their Mother into Ashes.
Leonard stumbled backward against a stone pillar adorned with Insect Nest totems, and the Devouring Insect within his Earlobe and Zhui Zi suddenly stiffened and fell.
He gazed at the Oathlight Chain entwined with Aelia and a cold, self-deprecating smile suddenly formed in his eyes, filled with Fury. "Do you really think that relying on this reincarnated Great Mage can save the Magic Castle? Back then, I had to cut open the bellies of thirty-six pregnant women to find a suitable Container..."
Luna suddenly emitted a Yiya Sound, as the saliva of the infant mixed with Star Sand to draw a Prophecy Totem on her Qian Si Skirt.
As Aelia's pearl Ailya's White Nails traced the center of the pattern, the entire chamber's Ground became transparent—three hundred feet underground, the Magic Fortress Earth Vein Core wrapped in a Swarm flickered in sync with Luna's Heart Rate.
At this moment in the Rose Garden's East Tower, Lucius was measuring the fermentation time of Laurel Honey with Star Sand.
The Three-Legged Alchemical Cauldron bubbled with colorful bubbles, and the carefully concocted Tequila simmering with Demon Rhinoceros Meat emitted an Emerald Color Halo.
This Third Young Master, often regarded as a wastrel, rolled up his sleeve adorned with Star Stones and dripped the last three drops of Moonlight Daffodil Nectar into a crystal Decanter.
"This time, I must ensure that Second Brother's Contracted Sword advances." He wiped the engraved Family Crest on his Jin Bian Crystal Plate, oblivious to the distorted shadow cast by a Devouring Demon Swarm passing outside the window.
The Magic Spirit Food on the dining cart swayed slightly with the Magic Castle's Zhen Chan, and an Ice Spirit Crystal embedded in the cream sculpture suddenly burst forth with Blue Light—this was a sign that Ling Shi had absorbed enough magical power.
A clear Announcement from Qin Si echoed through the Emerald Corridor: "The Western Forest Witch Coven has arrived!" Lucius hurriedly hid the Decanter in a closet, unaware that a Devouring Insect had snuck a sip of the remaining Moonlight Daffodil Nectar.
As he adjusted his Bow Tie and pushed the dining cart toward the banquet hall, he completely missed that several Soul Insect Eggs disguised as Sugar Coating had been added to the cream sculpture.
Meanwhile, Aelia was using her Oathblade to slice through her Pi Bo.
The blood-stained Silk Fragment floated toward the well, reassembling into a Magic Carpet that guided Geomancy within the Star Sand Stream.
Luna suddenly reached out and grabbed the Silver Moon Earrings that hung down from Mother, as butterflies made of Star Sand flew out from the Infant Hair, each carrying a piece of Ice Crystal Shards pressed against the cracks in the Magic Fortress Barrier.
"Take the guests to the Emerald Hall," Aelia instructed Qin Si, when Leonard suddenly erupted.
He tore open the Insect Emperor Mark on his chest and pulled out a half-segment of Crimson Tentacle, hurling it towards Luna.
The Eldest Son's Wheelchair instantly blocked the attack, and the Ear rune surprisingly transformed the Tentacles into a Healing Magic Rune, repairing his atrophied Twin Legs and Nerves over the years.
The Second Young Master's Contracted Sword suddenly emitted a Longyin, and the Family Crest embedded in the hilt resonated with Luna's Palm Sapphire.
As Holy Flame enveloped the Crimson Tentacle held by Shan Na, Blood Rose Vines began Emerging from the Ground of the Magic Castle—this was a sign that the Earth Vein Core was starting to awaken.
At this moment, the banquet hall fell into an eerie silence.
The five witches stared at the glowing Magic Spirit Food on the serving cart, mistakenly believing it to be a special welcoming dessert prepared by the Magic Castle.
The Red-Haired Witch, leading them, was the first to scoop up a spoonful of Emerald Soup. The moment the cream touched her Tongue, her Hair Tips suddenly bloomed into Moonlight Daffodils.
"Oh my god! Elder Meilin's nose has turned into Agave!" The Young Witch exclaimed as guests who had mistakenly consumed Ling Shi began to exhibit various transformations.
Some had Star Sand Crystals growing from their Fingertips, others spoke and released colorful bubbles, and the oldest Diviner even floated into the air to dance a fairy waltz.
When Lucius pushed open the door, he caught sight of the Red-Haired Witch using her wand transformed into a Golden Fork to remove Agave leaves from her companion's nose tip.
He stood frozen at the entrance filled with Magic Bubbles, his meticulously groomed golden hair singed and curled from a rogue Fire Spell cast by a witch.
The food cart, which should have showcased the Ice Spirit Crystal glowing with Blue Light, was now quietly melting the last few Soul Insect Eggs into the cream decoration.
Lucius's Dining Knife clattered to the ground, and the Crystal Plate reflected his flushed face.
The Red-Haired Witch's Moonlight Daffodil was visibly sprouting and shedding leaves, its silver petals fluttering into the Emerald Soup, turning the once Blue Light-tinged Ice Spirit Crystal into an eerie Azure Purple.
"This is... I specifically..." he stammered, retreating until his lower back bumped against the swaying Decanter on the food cart.
Suddenly, the cream decoration mixed with Soul Insect Eggs erupted in a burst of colorful Xing Huo, roasting the Agave leaf at Elder Meilin's nose to a fragrant crisp.
The muffled giggles of the Young Witches intertwined with the crackling sounds of bursting Magic Bubbles, while the elderly Diviner's fairy waltz spun wildly beneath the Crystal Chandelier.
"The Third Young Master's welcoming gift is truly unique." The Red-Haired Witch's Fingertip Star Sand Crystal suddenly exploded, scattering shards that formed twisted apologies on the wall.
Feigning calmness, she wiped her deformed Golden Fork, though her Earlobe flushed coral from embarrassment—how could the most etiquette-conscious Witch Leader from the Western Forest lose composure at the century-old Magic Castle Banquet?
As Aelia entered the banquet hall holding Luna, she caught sight of Lucius trying to grab a floating Magic Bubble with his bare hands.
His Star Stone cufflinks snagged on a Napkin, toppling a silver cup filled with Tequila-braised meat.
The rich broth formed an Amber-colored bead chain in midair when Luna suddenly reached out with her little hand dusted in Star Sand; those splattered meat chunks arranged themselves into a Prewarning Totem of the Devouring Demon Swarm.
"Mother!" Lucius exclaimed in panic as he stepped on his own cloak hem, his carefully prepared explanation caught in his throat.
He noticed the unhealed Curse Mark on Aelia's collarbone and caught a glimpse of Luna's golden hair shimmering between the swaddling. The Adam's apple rolled with difficulty as he murmured, "These Ling Shi were supposed to be sent to the Geomancy center..."
Suddenly, Luna let out a Yiya sound, and bubbles of saliva floated toward Elder Meilin's Agave at the tip of her nose.
When the sparkling bubble touched the edge of the leaf, the charred patterns automatically reformed into a coordinate map of the Magic Fortress Barrier's cracks.
The five witches simultaneously pressed down on the Divination Crystal, their Ancient Bloodline sensing the underlying crisis behind this farce.
"The Third Young Master's Ling Shi contains an S.O.S. from the Moonlight Daffodil." Elder Meilin suddenly struck her transformed Golden Fork against the Crystal Cup, causing the Agave at her nose to turn to ashes with a Magic Shockwave. "A quarter of an hour ago, we received a Resonance from the Magic Fortress Leyline—someone has mixed the Devouring Demon Egg into the banquet's Sugar Coating."
Lucius abruptly turned his gaze toward the dining cart, where black spider web-like patterns were seeping from the Ice Spirit Crystal in the cream decoration.
He recalled the misaligned Decanter in the cupboard, cold sweat instantly breaking out on his neck—those Devouring Insects that had stolen sips of Moonlight Daffodil Nectar had likely already laid their Soul Insect Eggs in the most crucial enhancer of Ling Shi.
Luna suddenly squirmed in her swaddling, her infant hair brushing against Aelia's neck adorned with sapphire.
Awakened by fetal blood, the Family Crest projected a three-dimensional Star Map, marking every corner of the banquet hall hiding Soul Insect Eggs as Crimson Light Spots.
The witches' Divination Crystal emitted a hum as Leonard's Sword suddenly vibrated; a century-old pest control Curse from the Western Forest began emerging in the air.
"Please allow us to make amends for our rudeness." The Red-Haired Witch leader's hair tips suddenly ignited with Purifying Fire as she plunged her transformed Golden Fork into the Emerald Soup. The boiling broth instantly transformed into a scouting magical eagle that soared toward the marked Light Spot. "In the name of moonlight and Thorn, Western Witches excel at calming rampaging..."
Before she could finish her sentence, a Soul Insect Egg hidden within the cream decoration suddenly hatched.
The newly emerged Devouring Demon Insect Emperor vibrated its wings inlaid with Jin Bian and charged straight toward Luna's swaddling, where sapphire glimmered.
Aelia's Silver Moon Earrings fell away, transforming mid-air into crescent blades that slashed toward the Insect Emperor, only to be deflected upon touching Jin Bian—its wing edges surprisingly coated with the protective Mithril of the Magic Fortress Leyline!
In a moment of crisis, Luna suddenly grasped Lucius's outstretched fingers in his panic.
The Third Young Master's Star Stone flared brightly, causing the scattered remnants of Ling Shi across the dining cart to levitate and coalesce into a miniature Geomancy Model.
Unaware, the baby waved her tiny hands, and the Emerald Color Halo within the model suddenly materialized, sealing the Devouring Demon Insect Emperor within an Amber formed from Star Sand.
The banquet hall fell into an eerie silence.
The witches' Crystal Divination Ball froze at the moment of the Insect Emperor's sealing, while Elder Meilin's Golden Fork returned to its original state, falling into a soup bowl and splattering Blue Blood Fern Juice onto Lucius's curled collar, staining it with the totem of the Western Forest.
Luna released her grip and let out a Lactation Burp. The Star Sand Amber that sealed the Insect Emperor rolled to Aelia's feet, the vibrations from Jin Bian's wings gradually fading.
"It seems the Third Young Master's Spirit Food Recipe needs improvement," Aelia said, gently stroking her daughter's Golden Hair where the Yin Hui had not yet faded. Her gaze swept over the flushed Luna among the Western Witches. "Shall we invite our esteemed guests to the Rose Garden? The arrangements for the Lunar Eclipse Festival..."
Her words were abruptly interrupted by Luna's sudden Loud Cry.
The baby's pink toes kicked free from their swaddling, brushing against the Amber sealed with Star Sand.
The Emerald Color Halo flowed through the Floor Tile Gap toward the window. In a corner unseen by everyone, a few lucky escaped Soul Insect Eggs quietly rolled toward the Rose Dew Storage Jar at the Geomancy Seven Inches, guided by the Halo.
