Bai Xi stood at the entrance to the Elemental Source Realm and let out a deep sigh.
"The last time I came was the last time."
Loy and the others weren't with her for the time being, and Bai Xi was afraid that El would be stressed, so she came to see him alone.
The thought of what she was going to do later filled Bai Xi with indescribable complex emotions.
No matter how Bai Xi thought about how she personally turned the free El into that human-machine archangel, she could sense an aura of sorrow.
But the contract within her body constantly warns her that if she doesn't do this, she will completely lose her autonomy for violating the agreement with the world's consciousness.
At least she can still control her body and do what she wants. If she were completely controlled by the world's consciousness, she simply couldn't imagine what would happen.
Knowing that El was there, Bai Xi took several deep breaths to compose herself before going to see him.
She couldn't appear too sad, otherwise El would definitely feel sad when he thought about it later.
Moreover...
When she traveled through the chaotic flow of time and space, were the words she exchanged with El considered expressions of mutual affection?
So, should they be considered a couple?
Bai Xi paused, lost in thought.
"Are you looking for me? I know you, you self-proclaimed savior."
Just then, El's voice came from behind.
She had clearly just seen this face, but for no apparent reason, Bai Xi's nose tingled and her eyes felt hot. It took her a long time to calm herself down before she could say something lighthearted.
"Now I'll be riding a heavily modified cop on a ghost fire."
Bai Xi's gaze swept over El, whose entire body was filled with violence. Unlike the archangel who had just prayed for her love in the misty space, he still looked like a rebellious teenager.
Actually, if possible, Bai Xi would like him to continue being rebellious.
What are you saying?
El frowned as he looked at her, a look of irritation creeping into his eyes.
She used a teasing tone to ease her discomfort, of course not expecting El to understand.
"Hmm... I guess it's because I don't want you to be the bad guy."
Bai Xi nodded, speaking as if in jest.
However, she is not wrong. The current El is the embodiment of chaos and evil, a kind of evil version of the Elemental King. If we really let him go, who knows what might happen.
Bai Xi hopes he doesn't have to become an angel, and she hopes he can be free, but only if she can stay by his side.
If left unattended, the boy with the will-o'-the-wisp will definitely turn bad.
Whether it was due to the side effects or not, she couldn't resist teasing El and said some lewd things she had never said before.
El, driven to his breaking point by Bai Xi, finally lost his temper and laid a hand on her.
Watching El relentlessly attack her, trying to knock her down and defeat her, Bai Xi wasn't angry at all; in fact, she almost wanted to laugh.
"That guy, El, must be missing me a lot right now. Fine, I won't hit you. I'll just tease you a little."
She reached out and grabbed El by the neck in the blink of an eye, before he could even react.
The two bodies fell from the sky, and Bai Xi heard El ask her who she was.
I don't want to tell you right now.
Bai Xi smiled but did not answer.
He will know the answer to this question later, but there is another possibility: if this confrontation with the world's consciousness fails, then knowing the answer will be of no use.
The clouds kept passing by in their eyes, and Bai Xi's voice was very soft, like a murmur.
"Would you like wings then?"
She was asking El, and she was also asking herself.
The purpose of scales is to maintain balance, and the symbols that represent the maintainers of order are wings and halos, that is, angels.
This is an agreement made between Baixi and the world consciousness.
Since history cannot be changed, El must continue to maintain the order and balance that has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years as the Archangel, until Beshi returns to the future and successfully defeats Tartarus, at which point the world consciousness will liberate El.
Let her take her place.
El looked puzzled, seemingly not understanding why she would do such a thing. The height might indeed be very high, but there was no way he could have fallen to his death.
There's no point in doing this; it just keeps him falling.
What nonsense are you talking about?
El asked as he struggled.
Bai Xi just smiled. She stared at El's face, and the emotions she had been suppressing surged back fiercely. No matter how much she pretended, she could not escape the traces of sadness in her bones.
"As expected, I still have to apologize to you for choosing a path that will cause you countless years of suffering."
She leaned close to El's ear, almost whispering.
As soon as she finished speaking, she placed the scales inside El's body.
El's pupils suddenly dilated. He didn't understand what Bai Xi was doing, but he could feel a strange change in the power within his body, transforming from chaos into order, a pure power.
It is similar to the King of Elements, but it is also stubborn and rigid, which is uncomfortable.
With pure white wings unfurled, Bai Xi saw once again what El looked like as an angel, his whole being exuding an undisguised sense of holiness, just like on the day of blessing, when he took the initiative to appear as an angel to support her.
Although the result wasn't good for Baixi, it's still somewhat bittersweet to think about now.
With wings, El easily stopped falling. Bai Xi took the initiative to separate the two of them, suppressing her sadness and putting on a relaxed expression.
The atmosphere was quiet and subtle. Bai Xi looked at the stunned El and slowly spoke.
You will forget me, but I hope you can be happy, even though it's impossible now.
El was even more confused.
What are you saying?
In his eyes, Bai Xi was a crazy woman who suddenly appeared and said some inexplicable things to him, bringing about some strange changes in him.
"If I said you would fall in love with me in the future, would you believe me?"
Bai Xi looked at the somewhat foolish El and curled the corners of her lips, her tone teasing.
Seeing El's continued puzzled expression, she could only sigh.
"Forget it, you wouldn't remember even if I told you."
Looking at the clueless and naive El who knew nothing about relationships, Bai Xi felt a sudden urge to play a prank on him.
She stepped forward and gently pressed her lips to El's. Their eyes met, and the air seemed to freeze.
After an unknown amount of time, Bai Xi took a step back and smiled, squinting her eyes.
If the future El remembers this memory, he might be jealous of himself?
Unfortunately, she doesn't yet have the ability to free him from her control.
El was like a block of wood, no longer resisting Bai Xi's various actions, just staring blankly at her, as if frozen in place. Bai Xi looked at his expression and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Are you an idiot?
The sorrow hidden beneath the joy was known only to Bai Xi, but El seemed to sense it as well. He pursed his lips, neither answering her question nor resisting, but simply watching her quietly.
Finally, Bai Xi's lips twitched, and she covered her face with her hands.
She thought.
I can't cry in front of El, it's embarrassing and I'll be laughed at.
