Bai Xi knew she couldn't avoid it, but giving a specific answer was too difficult. She couldn't figure out her feelings for the Demon King, and it would be irresponsible to agree so easily.
"I...I...wait for me to come back...okay?"
She spoke haltingly, with a tentative and cautious tone.
Upon hearing her words, Safa's brows relaxed considerably, and he nodded gently with a smile on his lips.
"I wasn't planning on you agreeing to me right now; having your exact time would have been enough."
He's in a good mood right now.
"But you know, I only want to hear one option."
Safa looked at Baixi and silently added, "It's not exactly a threat, but we have to put some pressure on her so she'll take this seriously."
"Um...."
Bai Xi's cheeks flushed red, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
At this point, the two ended the conversation. Safa led Baixi away from the edge of hell and back to the Demon King's castle. However, Baixi did not go inside. Instead, she stood at the door, looked up at him, and said something.
"I still need to make some preparations before leaving this era."
She needed to find the Earth Primal Spirit that Duruso had mentioned, and having already found the 'Sky Demon,' there was no need for her to stay in Hell any longer.
However, her eagerness to leave was somewhat impolite for a guest.
Unfortunately, she was too pressed for time to enjoy the hospitality, and of course... it was also to temporarily separate from Safa and clear her head.
"I knew it."
Safa sighed silently, but did not object. He simply reached out and patted Baixi's head.
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you in hell."
His words sounded like those of a stay-at-home husband waiting for his wife to return, making Bai Xi's cheeks inexplicably hot. She quickly took a half step back, stepping out of this strange atmosphere.
However, the next second, Bai Xi belatedly realized that it seemed that after kissing Safa, Safa's allure to her had disappeared.
But in contrast...
Bai Xi quietly touched her chest.
The heart here seems to be beating faster, with many more waves than before, something that never happened before.
"Okay, then I'll be going now."
Bai Xi noticed that her condition seemed a bit strange, and a sense of panic welled up in her heart. She left hell in a disheveled state, as if she were fleeing in panic.
As Safa watched Baixi's departing figure, the curve of his lips widened, and finally he couldn't help but chuckle softly.
"She's much cuter than when she lied to me."
His voice faded into hell, faintly drowned out by the sound of burning flames.
Only Safa heard his own voice.
...
After emerging from the Gates of Hell, Bai Xi breathed a sigh of relief, finally free from that ambiguous and lingering atmosphere. Her mind was finally able to return to normal and think without being affected.
"So, Duluso didn't say where the last primordial spirit is. Even if I figured it out, how am I supposed to find it?"
She stood at the gates of hell, lost in deep thought.
"We can look for some auction houses and ancient sites; maybe we'll find some clues."
The little ghost offered reasonable suggestions immediately. Even though his current knowledge was no longer of much use to Bai Xi, his quick thinking was still very helpful to Bai Xi.
"good."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Xi felt that the little ghost was right.
Having chosen a location, she flew towards the Kingdom of Arnold, one of the three great kingdoms. She had been there before and knew it well, so she could find a suitable auction house and see if any captured mages were there.
"I know most of the earth elemental spirits in the Elemental Source Realm, but I've never seen any old guys at the Primordial level."
Leia flew beside Baixi. Although he was no longer in the form of a little green bird, he was still quite small. He looked like a little adult as he crossed his arms and pondered.
They're both adorable and cute.
"Well, if I really can't find it in the Elemental Source Realm, I'll go there again."
Bai Xi agreed. Theoretically, the Elemental King should have some information, but since the Primal Elves have already scattered and left, the Elemental King may not know where they are.
What she didn't know was that the Kingdom of Arnold she had chosen was no longer the same as the one she had visited last time.
After Ulysses revived, he thoroughly cleaned up the rampant vampires, those traitors. Now, the vampires are all living in fear and hiding in fear.
When Baishi arrived in Dapata, it was already late at night, but the streets were bustling with people, unlike before when no one dared to go out at night.
"The security situation has improved?"
She was a little surprised.
But this is even better. She scanned the street, looking for the auction house. She also wanted to go back to the Continental Mage Guild to see if there were any small trade fairs between high-ranking mages.
The Green Tower also has information about mages, and they have even captured many mages themselves.
Should I rescue them all?
Looking at her close friends, Bai Xi felt sorry for the enslaved mages and wondered if she should go back to being a good person.
"Don't do that yet. His Majesty has some new ideas recently. If we just rescue all the elemental spirits, it will likely cause some bad things."
When the little ghost heard Bai Xi's thoughts, it quickly shook its head.
"His Majesty's strength is recovering, and he will surely be able to make better decisions."
He also didn't want Bai Xi to spend too much time on him.
Bai Xi has more important things to do now. His companions have been trapped for thousands of years. Compared to the abyss, which urgently needs to be dealt with and is about to threaten the entire continent, the crisis brought by Tartarus is more serious.
"Okay, I understand."
Bai Xi expressed her understanding, but as soon as she took the first step, a question suddenly came to mind.
"etc...."
She felt she had overlooked something very important.
"What's wrong, Bai Xi?"
Roy turned to look at her, his eyes questioning.
“I am no longer Maggie, and I have died once... Even if I transform into Maggie's appearance, they would probably just think I've come back to life.”
Bai Xi sighed, realizing that all the connections she had built up had been wiped out in an instant. She hadn't considered this possibility when she abandoned her body.
"You're already a god, so you can just..."
The little ghost curled his lip in disdain, about to say it was no big deal, when he suddenly realized...
Although Bai Xi is a god, she is a deity without any followers, and even the source of her power is very strange, making her fundamentally different from the gods currently in power.
