With a deep sense of helplessness, Bexia walked to the backyard of the Blood Wing, watching a group of little ones playing around. Bexia's somewhat depressed mood couldn't help but improve a lot when he saw them.
"Daddy! Anling bullied me!" Little Higanbana, upon seeing Bexia, was the first to rush over, hugging him with a pitiful look on her face.
"Meow~!" Following closely behind, Beibei couldn't change her innate habit and happily rubbed against Bexia's legs, wagging her fluffy tail from side to side.
It had been a while since Bexia had seen the two little ones, and he also missed them a bit. He picked them up one by one, rubbed their faces, and caused them to burst into laughter.
"Master! You're back!" Christine smiled at Bexia, with an appearance reminiscent of a virtuous wife eagerly awaiting her husband's return. Of course, this was not an exaggeration; Christine herself was already considered a model wife, just without children, so she couldn't be called a "mother"!
"There was a bit of a situation, but nothing serious!" Bexia set down the two mischievous little ones and returned Christine's smile.
"Oh!" Christine didn't ask further and instead glanced behind Bexia. The slight change in Conesy made her pause, but she quickly shifted her gaze to the newly arrived Lucifer.
"Master! Where did this young lady come from?" Christine felt strongly about it; Lucifer gave her a feeling similar to an ordinary person, but subconsciously, she felt a more intense sense of danger than facing the Dragon God, indicating that Lucifer was definitely not simple.
"Let me introduce you. This is Lucifer..." Bexia felt a little awkward, unsure of how to position Lucifer.
"I am Lucifer, the first Demon Lord of the Abyss under His Highness, the Endless Lucifer of the Apocalypse!" Lucifer could see through Christine's difference at a glance. Similar to Conesy, she shared a connection with Bexia, and on top of that, due to her intimate relationship with Bexia, Christine's body was filled with Bexia's aura.
From Lucifer's perspective, since Christine called Bexia her master and dressed like a maid, her status naturally matched that of a maid. However, as Christine received Bexia's favor, even if she was weak in strength, Lucifer still treated her as an equal.
"I don't know the situation either. Lucifer keeps saying I'm her Highness, and she saved me before. I can't just let her go!" Bexia quietly communicated with Christine's soul.
"And Lucifer is the former Archangel of the Supreme Heaven, at the level of a Creator, with power reaching the Eternal-tier super divine beings. She can do whatever she wants, and I can't stop her!" This statement revealed Bexia's deep sense of helplessness; dealing with an Eternal-tier divine being was beyond his control, and not even his projection sisters, who could only project, could handle it.
"I understand, Master," Christine responded.
"Since you are the master's subordinate, as the master's personal maid, I will have to talk to you about the master's preferences..." Christine spoke very familiarly, almost sounding like a supervisor.
In theory, speaking to an Eternal-tier divine being like this as a mere saint would elicit the same reaction anywhere - disrespecting a deity in such a manner would undoubtedly lead to destruction.
However, after listening to Christine, Lucifer fell into deep thought. He glanced at Bexia, then frowned and turned his gaze towards Christine, saying, "Please go on!"
To think that Lucifer, an eternal-tier god, was using polite language with Christine! Seeing the serious expression on Lucifer's face, Christine flashed a bright smile, approached and took Lucifer's arm, and affectionately said, "If Lucifer sister wants to know about this, then let's discuss it privately!"
Christine appeared so friendly with Lucifer, as if they had been longtime friends, and she led Lucifer towards her room, completely leaving Bexia behind.
"What's going on..." Bexia rolled her eyes speechlessly, glanced at the other little ones, and said, "Do you want to play games with me?"
"Okay! Dad, hurry up and log in, we're going to fight the boss and gear up!" the little Higanbana excitedly exclaimed, happily flying off.
"Be careful not to crash while flying!" Bexia reminded.
After playing around in the virtual network world with a group of little ones for a while, Bexia didn't linger and logged out, finding Lian.
"Lian! I'm going to the Pangu Supercontinent to send Ayin and Ningxian back. If..." Bexia was about to say what would happen if they took different roads, but to his surprise, Lian impulsively cut in, preventing him from continuing.
"We happen to be going to the Pangu Supercontinent too!" Lian said with a sunny smile, seeming to anticipate Bexia's next words.
"And you are our family's brother-in-law. Yuelian and Yue are wanderers, so wherever you go, we naturally follow along~!"
"..." Is he being latched onto now? Bexia asked himself if he had any allure, not even caring much about the rule fragments he had been tricked with before. At most, he considered it as aiding a friend financially. Yet, even after he expressed this intention, Lian seemed unwilling to let go, not only promoting Yue persistently but also touting himself, giving off a bit of a pimp-like salesperson vibe.
