Lucifer's methods exceeded Bexia's imagination, and the scene was somewhat bloody. Lucifer seemed to notice Bexia's reaction and waved her hand in the air, as if erasing words from a blackboard. The previously bloody scene disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had happened, except for twenty-eight different long swords falling down.
These twenty-eight long swords looked extraordinary, causing many people to be afraid to touch them or even avoid them from a distance. However, there were always some who were greedy and fearless enough to snatch them, only to swiftly retreat once they got hold of them.
"Don't bother!" Watching Lucifer about to make another move, Bexia spoke up to stop her, then said, "There's nothing left for us here, let's go."
"Yes, my lord!" Lucifer followed in Bexia's footsteps.
"Lucifer, you're so powerful. Can you teach Anemone how to beat up bad people?" After being comforted by Bexia, Anemone swiftly switched her attention to Lucifer, praising her incessantly like a buzzing little bee.
"When you grow up, you'll be as powerful as me!" Lucifer actually had a cold demeanor and was not good at social interactions, so after Anemone spoke for a while, Lucifer finally managed to say this.
"Grow up..." Anemone stopped and looked at herself, then compared herself to Lucifer, realizing she seemed small in every aspect, especially when she saw Lucifer's ample chest, which gave her a strong sense of inferiority, as if it was the most unacceptable flaw.
"It'll take a long time to grow up..." Anemone returned to Bexia's shoulder feeling dejected, looking a bit dispirited.
"Hehe! Anemone will grow up soon, don't worry!" Bexia patted her small head and said with a smile.
"Okay! I know, Dad. I'll grow up quickly so I can help Dad defeat bad people!"
"Good! Then Anemone, grow up quickly!" Bexia lifted Anemone up, although she wasn't sure if Anemone could actually grow up quickly—Anemone's situation couldn't be viewed with normal human thinking.
Anemone's childish mind was quickly delighted by Bexia, and she played with the other four children. With Lucifer watching, Bexia didn't have to worry about safety, as she had also handed the Dream Flower to Xiao San as an additional safeguard in times of crisis.
Continuing to roam in the starry sky was quite a picturesque scene. Bexia leisurely admired everything in the Milky Way, with Lucifer quietly following along, appearing like a couple out for a leisurely stroll, though that was not the reality.
Bexia chatted with Lucifer as well, but she seemed to have strong personal boundaries and a clear line of distinction. She was even more serious about this than Conesy, though if it were Christine instead, Bexia would probably be flirting with her by now!
"Um?" Lucifer suddenly looked in the distance, and Bexia, seeing her frown, couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"There's a strong energy fluctuation spreading!" Lucifer said.
"Oh!" Bexia glanced too, but she saw nothing.
“Why aren't you leaving?” Luo Cailing, riding on the newly caught Star Spirit, floated above Bexia's head, suddenly tilting her head down to ask.
“Don't scare us!” Bexia knocked on Luo Cailing's head and said, “Lucifer said there is a strong energy fluctuation spreading ahead!”
“Oh!” Luo Cailing retracted her head, stood up and looked around. Sparkles flickered in her eyes, and then she replied, “It's fine! It's just a starlight tide. Let's find a bigger star to hide for a while!”
“A starlight tide?!”
“It's the periodic surge of star energy in the galaxy. After a starlight tide, the power of the stars in the galaxy will be very strong, then gradually decrease over time until the next starlight tide, where it will peak again...” Luo Cailing explained simply.
“Truly miraculous!” Bexia said, then noticed what seemed like a surge of starlight tide rushing towards them, and quickly said, “Let's find a place to hide, the starlight tide is coming!”
“No need to disturb the Lord's enjoyment over a trivial matter, Lucifer can handle the trouble caused by the power of the stars!” Lucifer said, as he gestured and a force supported the surrounding space, facing the imposing starlight tide, much like an unmoving reef in a roaring stream.
“A-Ling! My River Chart is reacting again!” Luo Ningxian ran over with the River Chart at this moment, and when she released it, this extremely spiritual artifact turned into an arrow pointing forward, the meaning of which was self-evident.
“It's reacting! Let's hurry up and go!” Bexia immediately said upon seeing this. They had come to find something, and if there was a clue, they needed to act quickly.
“Turn into a small boat!” Luo Ningxian instructed the River Chart, and the artifact quickly enlarged and folded itself into a small boat.
“Everyone, get on board! The River Chart is fast, and we don't have to fear the starlight tide!” Luo Ningxian said to everyone, then she jumped aboard first...
