The lights in the room dimmed and a scented candle was lit. The faint scent of pine needles filled the room. Qi Ying was sitting in a hexagram made of obsidian.

The starry sky outside spun. Her eyes looked through the murky clouds at the starry sky.

All the constellations turned into clear astrolabe patterns in her eyes. All the living beings in the world operated according to the magnetic field between the stars.

She took a deep breath and continued to meditate.

This was the meditation that witches had to do every day.

She had undergone too much divination today. Her spirit medium needed to meditate to accumulate spiritual power.

After meditating for about half an hour, she felt that her spirit medium had returned to its original purity.

She put away the obsidian and the scented candle.

She found some spices in the big box and put them in the cup.

Those spices were all top-notch herbs. For witches, they were excellent for replenishing spiritual power and purifying evil spirits.

Recalling that the butler had said that he could arrange food for her today, Qi Ying placed the herbs in the box.

Tomorrow, she could look for the butler to arrange for herbs to be eaten.

She took out the tarot card deck, meditated again, and drew a card from it.

The card this time was the reversed death god.

The reversal of death meant rebirth.

She recalled her last divination before she transmigrated.

During that divination, she had drawn a true death card.

She was a famous solo witch in that world. Many people sought her out for divination and purification.

She also created many manifestation and purification spells, and helped many people break their contracts with evil spirits.

Before she was 25 years old, she became the most famous lone witch in that world. The purification she did was something that countless orthodox religions could not achieve.

Perhaps it was because she was too powerful that even God was jealous. When she was 25 years old, she was chased by evil spirits and orthodox sects. Her soul left her body and she was exiled to the world she was in now.

It wasn’t that she hadn’t divined this. It was just that most people’s lifespan and fate were determined by the heavens. It wasn’t something that her witchcraft and spiritual medium could change.

She still remembered that night when thunder rumbled and she was entangled by evil spirits. The moment her soul left her body, the pain disappeared. She watched as she slowly turned transparent and her spiritual power gradually dissipated.

Although she was unwilling, she could only accept the fact that she had disappeared.

She was unwilling. She wanted to live. She was only twenty-five years old.

Therefore, when she realized that she had been exiled to this new world, she almost went crazy trying to find a way to survive.

When she first transmigrated, she was abandoned in the cold morgue, still a baby in swaddling clothes.

She cried as loudly as she could and was eventually discovered by the nurses and doctors.

Unable to find her biological parents, an old woman adopted her.

The old woman was also an exiled witch. The moment she saw Qi Ying, she determined that this child had a powerful spiritual medium and was different from ordinary people.

From then on, she lived with the old woman. The old woman did not give her a name, but let her name herself when she grew up.

She used her name from another world, and the old woman did not say anything.

It wasn’t until she was twelve that the old woman began to teach her witchcraft, how to use spirit mediums to master the spirituality of this world and purify herself.

The two of them did not look like grandmother and granddaughter, but more like a pair of old friends.

On her fifteenth birthday, the old woman told her about her past life.

Only then did Qi Ying know that this old woman called Ma Xi had been exiled from the same world as her, and she was a good friend of her former teacher, Qi Yang.

The two of them drank absinthe soaked in medicinal herbs and talked for the entire night.

At that time, Ma Xi had divined for her once, and the Death Card still appeared.

Qi Ying shook her head. “Grandma, I know. My fate has always been like this. Even if I come to this world, I might not be able to escape that calamity.”

Ma Xi looked at her with sorrow in his eyes. Ma Xi was relatively lucky. There was no such calamity. Although she was alone, she had lived a peaceful life in this world.

Then what should Qi Ying do?

“There are still a few years. There will be a way. I still want to see you live a good life with my own eyes and become the best solo witch in the world.”

Qi Ying shook her head. “Grandma, the 20 years I stole here can be considered a little compensation. If it doesn’t work, we don’t have to be troubled.”
