Finally, seeing Bai Xi busy around, Safa couldn't bear it any longer and spoke up.

"So you really intend to take them all with you?"

Safa looked at Baixi, his expression beyond speechless.

"Um."

Bai Xi stopped carrying the load, turned around and nodded to him.

"You really are..."

Safa remained silent.

He now had the illusion that he was being used as a tool. How could he, the mighty Demon King of Hell, be ordered around by a woman like this?

But considering that Bai Xi had just given him useful information, Safa held back his anger.

He took a deep breath and snapped his fingers as if in resignation.

In an instant, all the living beings in the banquet hall could move, while the dead remained frozen in place, unable to move.

The creatures looked at each other, completely bewildered by what had just happened, until they heard Bai Xi's words.

"If you want to live, get out of here quickly."

Bai Xi knew that Safa was impatient, which was why he helped her. Besides, even if these slaves left the city lord's mansion, they would probably have a hard time surviving in this Western Continent where the dead are everywhere.

But this is the limit of what she can do.

Even if it weren't for Safa, she wouldn't have been able to save them at all, and could only let them walk into the arms of death.

After a long while, the creatures seemed to understand something, and they scattered and fled outside in a commotion. The Lord of White Bone City removed the chains from their bodies, leaving only their collars.

This means that they are no longer under the control of the undead and can move freely.

The collar, capable of isolating them from the presence of living beings, also allows them to temporarily survive in a world teeming with the dead, making it a perfect fit.

Only Rilisa, her gaze fixed on Baixi, remained standing in the same spot, waiting for Baixi to return.

Safa turned and left the city lord's mansion, regardless of whether Baixi followed.

Bai Xi ignored the other creatures and, seeing Safa leave, quickly walked to Ruilisha's side, left her with a message, and also left the city lord's mansion.

Time began to flow again, and Rilisa followed beside Baixi, without a single ghost having any doubts.

After all, Bai Xi was clearly a powerful undead, so it wouldn't be surprising if he had human slaves and demon slaves by his side.

Little did they know that after the living beings fled, all the undead in the city lord's mansion came to their senses and discovered that their slaves had run away and the fragments of the goddess of the dead's soul had also vanished, which enraged the undead in the banquet hall.

The Bone Lord was so enraged that he could no longer maintain his dignity. The skulls above the Necropolis were part of him, and when he was angry, the skulls would spew out eerie green flames.

The fact that the flames are burning so brightly now indicates that he has become extremely angry.

However, Bai Xi, along with Rilisa, caught up with Safa and swaggered away from the Necromancer's City, a feat akin to a daring theft.

"Who is this person?"

Safa looked at Rilisa with a furrowed brow.

He didn't understand why Bai Xi would treat a human so naturally, even better than he treated him, and this human didn't seem to have anything special about him.

Under Safa's puzzled gaze, both Bai Xi and Rui Lisa remained unusually calm.

Bai Xi knew Rui Lisa's identity beforehand, while Rui Lisa was curious as to why Bai Xi knew her name. In addition, she didn't think she could escape the grasp of such a powerful person.

"The head nun of the Temple of Light, well... if nothing unexpected happens, she used to be, but she probably isn't anymore."

Bai Xi said thoughtfully.

Safa closed his eyes, and then everything went black.

Why would a demon king of a realm help Bai Xi save the people of the Temple of Light? Isn't that just inviting humiliation?

Did you see me when you were alive?

Rilisa also looked thoughtful, and finally found a gap between the two of them and spoke.

"Yes, not only have we met, but I'm also your boss."

Bai Xi said calmly.

The Holy Maiden of Light should be considered the Chief Sister's superior, right?

Although I was only his boss for a short period of time.

"?"

This time it was Rilisa's turn to be confused. Even if she racked her brains, she couldn't remember any great beauty with black hair and black eyes, whose appearance was as cold as ice, among the high-ranking members of the temple.

And the high-ranking officials who have already died.

The only one who meets these criteria is... Saintess Maggie.

However, no matter what, Rilisa found it hard to associate the gentle saintess with the gloomy, lifeless black-haired undead in front of her.

"No need to guess, I am Maggie."

Bai Xi didn't care about Rilisa's inner thoughts and directly revealed his identity.

She really didn't need to hide anything.

She's not some powerful figure's runaway wife, nor is she a revenge protagonist with enemies all over the world. After all, those who had grudges against her have already been eliminated by her to prevent future troubles.

Furthermore, the only demon king who should have been hunting her down had already found her, so hiding her identity would just seem like she was bored out of her mind.

So much so that when she finished speaking, even Ririsa, who had remained expressionless and indifferent until now, showed a look of shock.

"You...are...Her Highness the Holy Maiden?"

Rilisa thought she might be dreaming; how could two beings with completely different appearances and temperaments be the same person?

"Yes, I want you because I have something I want to ask you."

Bai Xi nodded. She was unable to leave the Western Continent for the time being and had no way of knowing what was happening on the other side of the continent. Rui Lisa, on the other hand, had probably only been captured and brought to the Western Continent not long ago and had some understanding of the situation outside.

It just so happens to be the place where she once lived, so she should know a lot about what happened in the temple after she died.

For example, the original owner's mother, and Little Orange, the little girl who was tortured by vampires.

When she left, she hadn't actually arranged everything.

She wasn't invincible. She had exhausted almost all her energy dealing with the Duke, leaving her with no time to consider many things. So much so that when death truly came, there was still so much she hadn't done.

They didn't even properly say goodbye to Nesser and the others.

"Please ask whatever you wish, Your Highness."

After learning that Bai Xi was Maggie, Rilisa's expression visibly relaxed. Even though Bai Xi was now an undead, Maggie's impression was too deep, and no matter what, she couldn't possibly regard the Holy Maiden as a bad person.

The stronghold producing the Elixir of the Fallen was destroyed by Saint Maggie, and the Zephnea family, who sold slaves, was thoroughly investigated. She destroyed a deeply rooted tree of evil, uprooting it completely.

Even if such a person becomes a ghost, it is difficult for people to be wary of them.

"..."

Bai Xi pursed her lips and fell silent for a moment.

In fact, Bai Xi had many questions in her mind, but when it came to asking them, she didn't know where to begin.
