Volume 3, Chapter 53 – Some of Yelena’s Conjectures

After seeing the mysterious girl’s restraining moves on Ailiya, which resembled the grappling techniques the boss had taught her years ago, Serveiling developed a certain interest in this masked girl. Not to mention, This girl had also tried to find the White Horizon Sword, and eventually even hugged her boss.

And at this moment, When Serveiling heard everything Fisk had said, this Vassal Tier being confirmed her inner suspicions. Although her appearance didn’t quite match the photos provided by the boss, Could it be? It really was that child herself?

Upon realizing she had found the young lady of the Terrabond Lineage, Serveiling’s crimson eyes flashed with rare astonishment. However, she quickly stabilized her emotions. With her eyes slightly narrowed, Serveiling directly established mental contact with Yelena thousands of miles away. As fellow Vassals of Earth, the four of them naturally had special methods of communication.

—”Hey, Yelena, I’ve discovered something interesting. I think I’ve found Bai Xing Wu.” —

While vigilantly watching Fisk and the others below, Serveiling unreservedly shared everything she had just seen with Yelena. After receiving this news, Yelena also fell into silence. Several seconds later, she asked with a dubious tone:

—”Are you certain it’s Bai Xing Wu? Wasn’t that young lady’s soul torn apart? How could she still be alive with a torn soul?” “I can’t confirm it, but I feel it can’t be wrong.”

Scratching her head with her cat paw, Serveiling stated her judgment: “She actively went to hug the boss. Afterward, she hid alone in a grove, fuming and calling the boss ‘old man,’ angry that the boss didn’t recognize her. Also, just now, the Paradise Manor people also addressed her as Xing Wu.”

—”I see, then perhaps it really is her.” — “So what do we do next? Should we tell the boss?”

—”Not yet.” “Hmm? Why not?”

The black cat lowered her paw, asking with confusion.

—”If it really is Xing Wu, she recognized the boss’s identity but still chose not to return. She must have some unspeakable difficulties. Considering that Xing Wu’s original body no longer exists and her soul is incomplete… there’s an eight or nine out of ten chance she’s being controlled by Paradise Manor through some special secret technique. Those beasts excel at these underhanded tricks, don’t they? Xing Wu pretending to stay with Paradise Manor might be to find an opportunity to break free from their control. If we tell the boss now, with her temperament, could she remain patient? If she acts recklessly, she might even harm Xing Wu.”

“Then, Yelena, what do you suggest?”

—”Have Yue Linglong’s people monitor this group, investigate whether this young lady is genuine or fake, and if genuine… why she’s being controlled by Paradise Manor. By the way, we might also take this opportunity to find where those Paradise Manor cowards are hiding.”

“Alright, I understand.”

Serveiling nodded. She rarely questioned Yelena’s words. After all, Compared to the constantly absent-minded boss, Yelena, in some sense, acted more like the leader of their Vassals of Earth group.

Although she felt somewhat disloyal to the boss, but… let’s proceed this way for now.

After ending her communication with Yelena, Serveiling quietly slipped into the shadows, silently following Fisk and the others as they prepared to leave…

Meanwhile, In a sealed room within the Maretide Kingdom’s temple, after ending the call with Serveiling, the black-haired girl wearing a mage’s robe with a hood slowly leaned back on the sofa.

“The boss’s daughter, Bai Xing Wu…”

The black-haired girl, Yelena, muttered with complicated feelings. Compared to Serveiling, who was overjoyed to learn that Xing Wu was still alive, Yelena’s emotions appeared particularly cold. Not only was there no joy in her crimson pupils, but a trace of gravity appeared. Within that gravity was also a thread of chilling coldness.

As if sensing this coldness, a certain succubus with a dog collar, curled up in the corner, couldn’t help but tremble.

Giving a cold glance at the terrified Hilgena, Yelena elegantly raised her cup and took a sip of the red tea on the table. Strictly speaking, She had Hilgena temporarily shut down the Maretide Kingdom’s defense system precisely to allow Polarvitan to cause trouble in Clavino. She just didn’t expect, That in the midst of the trouble, there would be an unexpected harvest?

—”Bai Xing Wu is actually still alive? That makes no sense…”—

Yelena narrowed her eyes in confusion. If she were Paradise Manor, for a rebellious existence like Bai Xing Wu, there would be no reason to keep her alive. They would certainly kill her, dismantle her physical body for experiments, and split her soul to cultivate new Divine-Graced Maidens. Only a fool would keep a potential threat by their side.

In fact, The Paradise Manor people probably did just that initially. Otherwise, Xing Wu’s original body wouldn’t have been destroyed. However, Later, those people evidently considered something. Only then did they use the remaining soul and a new body to resurrect Xing Wu.

Why resurrect her? Could it be?

After pondering for a moment, a flash of insight struck Yelena. She recalled the confidential document she had viewed earlier using Hilgena’s identity. Xing Wu, Was the second-generation Savior. And the boss was the guardian summoned to this world alongside Xing Wu.

The guardian’s responsibility was to protect the Savior. And the Savior also possessed certain authority to control or suppress the guardian’s power. Could it be…

—”Did Paradise Manor realize the relationship between the boss and the Alabaster Sovereign, so they brought out Xing Wu?”—

If that’s really the case, hmmm… Hehe, Interesting.

Extending her tongue to lick her lips, a smile gradually emerged on Yelena’s cold face. However, Before handling this matter, let’s first settle the Westivian Covenant issue. Perhaps she should also thank Polarvitan. Without his help, Things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly~

With a gentle smile, Yelena closed her eyes again. As the crimson magical array surged, special messages were transmitted to distant places.

“Great Lady Gaia Lobir!! I, I won the Salvation Game!” “You promised to fulfill my wish!” “I’ll give everything to you, I just ask that you fulfill my wish! After that, I’ll serve you in any way!” “My wish? Ah, regarding that, it’s very simple! I want power! The highest power in this country! I want to become the master of this country!” “I want to kill all those who dared to look down on me back then!”

“Lord Ludean? Lord Ludean! Are you alright?” “Hmm?”

As his subordinate’s voice reached his ears, Ludean, who had been working until around four in the morning, shook his head, emerging from his half-awake, half-asleep state. “Had that dream again…?”

Raising his hand to rub his temples, after fully coming to his senses, this middle-aged man with graying temples looked curiously at his subordinate. “What is it, suddenly coming to my rest area?”

“Lord Shawn Ge has sent you the latest news.” “News?”

Ludean raised an eyebrow, clearly interested. “What’s the matter? Just tell me directly.”

“It’s like this… Given that President Lakbi and both Vice Presidents all perished in this attack, Lord Shawn Ge wants to request you, as the Third Vice President, to temporarily manage the Covenant’s affairs.”

The young officer said with a heavy heart. “I see… I understand.”

In response, Ludean also sighed helplessly. However, While sighing, an almost imperceptible flash of excitement and contempt appeared in the Vice President’s eyes. Heh, Hehehe, Thank you, Great Lady Gaia Lobir. Your subordinate will not disappoint you…
