At the top of the Tower of Eternity, Fengxiu and Elric stood before a coffin containing the body of Bai Yue’s mother, Bai Lingxuan. To preserve her lingering vitality, Elric would visit periodically to infuse her with the essence of life. After sending A Bao back to the Heart City, Fengxiu sought out Elric, intent on questioning him.
"Elric, I don’t care for beating around the bush," Fengxiu said, raising an eyebrow as he asked bluntly. "What exactly is your selfish motive for what you’ve done regarding Long Xingyu?"
"It is naturally for the sake of Bai Yue," Elric replied. He had never intended to hide his relationship with her from Fengxiu; it was time for the Demon God Emperor to know. He had been waiting a long time for Bai Yue to give him a formal status, and he was growing impatient. Using this opportunity to lay his cards on the table seemed like a good idea.
