Bai Xi returned to the Elemental Source Realm, and never before had she felt so conflicted.

Even after Philomona caught up with her, Bai Xi remained trapped in her self-isolation.

"You're just leaving like this? Isn't it too cruel to leave my son like this?"

Philomona watched Bai Xi's retreating figure and sighed silently, her tone resentful, as if she were complaining that Bai Xi hadn't given her any face.

"...Our priority now is to save the King of Elements."

Bai Xi felt a wave of dizziness, but she took a deep breath and turned to Philomona with a serious expression.

"You're right."

After a moment's thought, Philomona could only show a regretful expression, as if she was sorry that Baixi wasn't interested in Safa.

"He didn't catch up, did he?"

Bai Xi wanted to pretend she didn't care, but she couldn't help asking.

"No, I stopped him. I can't let him cause trouble now."

Philomona was able to distinguish between what was important and what was urgent. In fact, Safa originally wanted to come along to catch the person, but she did not let him come because of various considerations.

It's not just because of the King of Elements, but also because of Bai Xi's own personality.

Philomona has seen too many humans and is extremely sensitive to emotions. Perhaps because of her succubus nature and intuition, she could sense that Bessie's avoidance of emotions had reached an abnormal level.

If we keep pressing forward, there will only be unpredictable consequences, like slowly boiling a frog in water.

However, since Safa has already taken the step of 'breaking the window,' the rest is up to her, the old mother, to make up for it.

Philomona thought with a sense of regret.

If Safa weren't so rebellious, and had come to her to discuss things first, wouldn't pursuing him be much easier with her around? After all, she's the most powerful succubus.

"Phew, thank you so much."

Bai Xi let out a long sigh, feeling much more relaxed. If Safa had insisted on catching up, she would have been devastated.

For the rest of the journey, the two didn't talk about anything else, but focused on traveling until they arrived at the Elemental Source Realm.

Bai Xi was still marveling to herself, "This is indeed the benefit of becoming stronger."

What used to be a very long journey can now be completed in just half a day.

strength......

It's truly captivating.

Bai Xi could feel the surging divine power within her body, a magical experience she had never had before, as if she were standing at the very top of the world, where no one could threaten her anymore.

"Mona, you're back? So soon?"

The King of Elements was somewhat surprised to sense that Bai Xi and Philomona had entered the Elemental Source Realm, seemingly not expecting that the scales of the angel's protection could be obtained so easily.

"Yes, everything went very smoothly, all thanks to Bai Xi."

Philomona nodded, her expression subtle. She must have been thinking about what had happened in the temple, but out of respect for Baixi, she didn't say anything.

"El... sigh."

The Elemental King seemed to recall things about El's past and let out a sigh for no reason. Bai Xi also recalled the scene at the altar and those memories from her dreams.

My feelings were hard to describe at that moment.

"In short, the scales and scepter of the supreme god are here. I know you don't intend to inherit the position of the elemental king, so what you need to do now is to use the two artifacts to stabilize the leakage of magic power in his body."

Philomona had wanted to ask this question before she left.

If it weren't for the supreme deity, one shouldn't be able to use the supreme deity's artifacts.

She originally planned for Bai Xi to gather all seven elements and become the next elemental master, but her new proposal clearly suggests...

She is the supreme deity.

This is a very important signal. The Abyss is active now, and it feels like it won't be long before it makes a comeback.

Last time at this time, a supreme deity appeared and turned the tide; now it has appeared again... Bai Xi.

All of this must be connected.

"Yes, I can use it."

Bai Xi nodded. She didn't intend to hide anything from Filomona. They were both ancient foxes, and she had already made it so obvious. It would be too difficult for her to pretend otherwise.

Besides, there's no need to hide the fact that she's a supreme deity.

"Okay, I understand."

Philomona's expression instantly turned serious; she had received important information that was crucial for the entire world.

After resolving the crisis in Tartarus last time, the main god disappeared. So this time...

She didn't think it through. She liked Bai Xi very much and didn't want anything to happen to her because of this, but if it was fate, she couldn't stop it.

Bai Xi nodded, and finally flew away from where she stood, heading towards the spot where the central divine scepter was stuck.

Looking at the simple, broken wooden stick, Bai Xi sensed that it resonated with her, and the scepter in her vision was restored to its magnificent and sacred appearance.

So that's why she felt a sense of familiarity back then; she had once held this scepter before.

Bai Xi thought to herself, and finally reached out and grabbed the scepter.

Seemingly sensing her power, the scepter suddenly unleashed a terrifying force, its light illuminating almost the entire Elemental Source Realm, even illuminating the sky.

The little ghost had just been comforted by Roy, and after seeing Bai Xi return, although she didn't show up on her own, she had somewhat forgiven Bai Xi in her heart.

He was still struggling with how to reconcile with Bai Xi when he witnessed this scene.

Bai Xi was enveloped by the power emanating from the God's Scepter, her eyes shining slightly, her skirt fluttering, and her entire body levitating in mid-air. The scepter seemed to merge into one in her hand, as if it had always belonged to her.

The magnificent scepter was docile and obedient in her hand, and many elemental spirits stopped what they were doing, sensing the power emanating from it.

Even the little ghost was no exception; the surging magic power caused his spirit level to rise rapidly, transforming him from a high-ranking spirit into a humanoid form.

He looks exactly the same as he did before he lost his power.

The boy, cloaked in black, floated not far from Bai Xi. He looked down at his slender hands, which were no longer as short and clumsy as they were during his ghostly days. For a moment, he seemed a little dazed, his eyes blank.

Loy, Leia, Little Jellyfish, and Deer Spirit all transformed into human form.

The little ghost turned its head and saw Roy's face, which it hadn't seen in a long time. A humanoid elemental spirit must be extremely powerful to transform into. Countless years had passed since Roy lost its power and reverted to a level two elemental spirit.

Upon seeing him again, the little ghost almost burst into tears.

He turned his face away almost as if to hide his embarrassment, looked at Bai Xi who was continuously releasing her power, and muttered something under his breath.

"...I forgive you, you crazy woman."
