As her gaze focused, Ulysses' handsome face loomed large before her, startling Bai Xi. In an instant, she straightened up and sat bolt upright.
"you....."
Bai Xi's mind was still immersed in the misty space, and she almost forgot that she was still in the past.
“You suddenly fainted, and the little ones you brought are more worried than I am.”
Ulysses shrugged, probably annoyed by Bai Xi's avoidance of him, and spoke with a hint of resentment.
"Um... I'm sorry to have worried you."
Bai Xi pursed her lips, her mind filled with the promise she had made with the world's consciousness. She wasn't in a good mood, but looking at the several faces filled with worry, she still managed a forced smile.
No one knew that commands from the world's consciousness had already appeared in her mind.
The first thing to do upon returning is to... make El the Archangel.
Bai Xi closed her eyes. Ever since she arrived in this era, she had been deliberately avoiding seeing El, but now she still had to see him...?
What you can't avoid, you can never escape.
"I'll... not go look for other elemental spirits first, I still have some things to do."
Bai Xi shook his head; perhaps this journey with Ulysses was coming to an end.
"Hmm? You mean?"
Ulysses understood the implication in Bai Xi's words that she was asking him to leave, but he was still curious about the reason, so he leaned forward and got even closer to Bai Xi.
Although vampires are usually annoying, they do have a handsome yet wicked face. When they look at someone so intently, they have an indescribable charm.
Although he may not have many thoughts, in other people's eyes, it seems as if he is deliberately seducing others.
Bai Xi was also stunned by his actions. In the past, she had no feelings about Ulysses' appearance. No matter how handsome or good-looking he was, she would not have any thoughts about him.
After all, for her, there was no need to feel any appreciation for her enemies, let alone any unusual emotions.
But for some reason, being looked at like that by him today, Bai Xi felt her heart beating faster and her cheeks flushed slightly.
Ulysses had been keeping an eye on Baixi, so he naturally caught Baixi's reaction immediately.
He was a vampire who frequently hunted for food, so he was all too familiar with this kind of reaction; few young girls could see his face without blushing.
But Bai Xi had always been indifferent to him before, so why is she acting this way today...?
Once Ulysses had a guess in his mind, he would immediately put into practice anything that seemed interesting.
The vampire simply raised his hand, a seductive smile curving his lips. His already deep and mellow voice became even more alluring after he deliberately lowered his tone, sending shivers down the spine of the listener's ears.
Why aren't you saying anything? Hmm?
The airflow almost grazed his cheek. Startled by his magnetic voice, Bai Xi's instinctive reaction was not to back away, but to slap him across the face.
Caught off guard, Ulysses was suddenly slapped across the face. He turned his head to the side, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
This was the first time the progenitor of vampires had ever been slapped, especially under such circumstances.
Her attempt to seduce him failed, and she even got beaten up...
That's incredibly embarrassing.
But Bai Xi's reaction clearly showed that she was attracted to him, so how could she have misjudged him?
Ulysses was completely baffled.
He wasn't angry. It was reasonable for him to be beaten after his little scheme was discovered, but it was completely different from the reactions of women in his memory.
"Stay away from me."
Bai Xi stiffly got off the bed, her tone equally harsh.
She then realized that she had been taken back to the temple built for her by the believers. She had been to this room before, but she never expected that Ulysses would bring her back here.
"That vampire is wicked; stay away from him."
Seeing that the two had distanced themselves, Luo Yi quietly approached Bai Xi and said in a low but serious voice.
Unfortunately, the room wasn't very big, and Ulysses had excellent hearing, so everything was completely absorbed by his ears.
For a moment, he was both amused and exasperated.
"I know."
Bai Xi nodded seriously, agreeing with Luo Yi's statement.
This was another blow to the vampire's heart.
"Hey you guys, are you going to talk about this behind my back?"
Ulysses sat up straight, rubbed his temples helplessly, and offered a gentle reminder.
No, there's no need.
Bai Xi waved her hand, showing a disgusted expression.
"Anyway, I... have things I haven't done yet. If you still want to follow me and observe me, you'll have to wait a little longer."
Bai Xi always thought that Ulysses was a very boring guy. His lifespan was too long, and he would never really die. His immortality made him gradually become abnormal, and anything that was even remotely interesting could attract his attention.
For example, her now.
A 'savior' shrouded in mystery would indeed make Ulysses reluctant to part with him.
After listening to Bai Xi's words, Ulysses sighed for a long time, turned around and looked at Bai Xi.
"Alright, it seems our wonderful journey ends here. But beautiful lady, please don't hit my face next time; it really hurts my self-esteem."
His tone sounded like he was joking, but Bai Xi knew it was because she was capable enough.
If it were someone weaker, they would probably have been reduced to ashes long ago.
Ulysses is not someone to be trifled with. To say that a vampire who has lived for countless years is pure, harmless, gentlemanly, and elegant is only on the surface.
The two parted ways; the process wasn't pleasant, but it wasn't a complete falling out either.
...
Bai Xi embarks on her search once more, but this time the object of her search is... El.
She felt the scales in her hands, her emotions indescribably complex.
In fact, after the mist dissipated, she and El accompanied each other for a period of time in the spacetime turbulence. Time and space turned into streams of light that flickered around them, and it was unclear whether time passed quickly or slowly.
Bai Xi quietly stayed with El, and the two talked for a long time.
Contrary to Bai Xi's expectations, El was much more emotionally complex than the archangel she had imagined. He wanted freedom and wanted to do many things. He was also very curious about his past and wanted to recall his memories.
Before she knew it, Bai Xi had told him a lot about herself.
Until El grabbed her, his expression almost pleading.
Her pure white angel wings had grown back, and her halo had been restored to its original state. The wings almost completely enveloped her, and the man's hand was around her waist.
El rested his head on her shoulder, his voice cautious.
Even if it's a lie, I want to hear you say that you like me too.
Bai Xi looked into his eyes and finally couldn't bring herself to say no.
I like you too.
She thought that this wasn't exactly deception, but rather contained a degree of sincerity.
