Stanley Batton shook his head slightly, feeling equally confused.

“If you have any questions, you might as well ask me. What’s the point of murmuring between you?" the voice said. “Xyla, my original plan was to torture you and Stanley adequately before killing you both.

“I wanted you to feel the pain of losing everyone important to you right before losing your life. I just never expected Sophie to appear out of the blue to take my life, leaving me in my spirit form to wander this world.”

Fear began to spread through Xyla Quest. Her palms dampened with sweat instantly upon realizing the grave danger they were in.

They were only ordinary human beings whereas the nine-tailed demon fox proved to be a deadly adversary despite being in his spirit form.

“Where is this place? Are you going to kill us?” she asked boldly.

At this point, Xyla knew being fearful wouldn’t solve anything. She had to face her fears head-on no matter what. So, she forced herself to remain calm.

    Xyla Quest proved to be as brave as a female commander when her motivation was to protect the man behind her.She needed Stanley Batton to live no matter what happened to her.The nine-tailed demon fox began to laugh when he heard her.Then, a golden ray of light flashed before a man wrapped in a long, red robe appeared in its place.Xyla thought he looked familiar, resembling the character who once appeared in her dreams before.There was no difference in both of his appearances.She frowned, subconsciously pulling Stanley backward like a hen protecting its chick. “You’re the nine-tailed demon fox.”He smiled in a way that had a sinister effect. “Indeed, I am.”According to legends, he was a fox that transformed into a human.He naturally had good looks and seemed attractive, particularly when he smiled.However, he had a cold aura around him that overshadowed his attractive looks.Despite how good-looking he was, he still instilled fear in others.“You appeared so suddenl

    Xyla Quest was in anguish at that moment, feeling like her body and her soul had been completely torn apart.It hurt so badly that she couldn’t breathe.She wished this was all in her imagination. She hoped it was just a vivid nightmare that would go away and return to normal once she woke up.As soon as Stanley Batton finished speaking, he suddenly floated up into the air, and then his body began to burn.The pain was excruciating, but he somehow kept a neutral expression on his face.The sight of her husband's burning body was now etched in the depths of Xyla’s heart.She hated herself right then for not being able to fight against the nine-tailed demon fox.They were only ordinary human beings, after all. Despite being more powerful, wealthy, and influential than many others in their real world, they remained powerless in this mystical realm.They were worthless in the face of magic.She began to cry as she clenched her fists, charging toward the nine-tailed demon fox.

    “Please," Xyla Quest pleaded. "If you won’t forgive us, then kill me! I’m the one who should die, not him. Kill me, please.” She meant everything she said from the very core of her being.However, the nine-tailed demon fox gave her a chilling stare and chuckled as he toyed with his hair.He didn’t take her words to heart.“The one who needs to die shouldn’t have it easy. You must stay alive and suffer the pain of Stanley’s death.“This is what you owe me, Xyla. You will pay me back in such a manner because I won't accept any other method. Everyone needs to pay for what they have done. Isn’t that right?” he asked in a booming voice, sounding firm and irrefutable.By then, Stanley Baton had already developed a numbness from being burned.Strangely, his skin remained undamaged despite being torched for so long, but Xyla wasn’t in the right frame of mind to think about it logically.Instead, she continued to look pleadingly at the nine-tailed demon fox. “Don’t you think this is al

    Xyla Quest truly felt like the most powerless person ever.She couldn’t do a single thing when the love of her life was suffering right before her very eyes.As she chased the nine-tailed demon fox around, the latter began mocking her again—“Haha, give up, Xyla. You’re still just as stubborn as you were in your past life. You won't beat me no matter how hard you try. You’re just an ordinary person with no magical powers.“Any random spirit in the netherworld would be stronger than you. Give up the fight. It’s pointless. Hahaha,” he taunted with a maniacal laugh.She found it extremely annoying as everything he said infuriated her.With all the rage amassing within her, she felt like her heart would soon explode.She was about to go mad.Then, all of a sudden, a pink light surrounded her body right before some mysterious force lifted her from the ground.She ascended ten meters into the air, the sudden loss of gravity making her heart pound.It was quite an unbelievable thing

    Xyla Quest felt nothing but contempt toward the nine-tailed demon fox.To be able to exact revenge on him with her mysterious powers gave her a certain sense of satisfaction.Immediately after that, her body started attacking him with the same rapid moves without her controlling it.Beside her, Stanley Batton did the same thing.A combination of bright pink and blue rays blazed toward the nine-tailed demon fox in the next second.The light rays grew brighter, lighting up the entire spirit realm.The demon fox tried his best to evade their attacks.The light rays directly charged toward the sea of red spider lilies, causing them to wither as countless red petals blasted into the air to rain down around them.The scene provided a beautiful backdrop to what would be a bloody scene in stark contrast.Although the nine-tailed demon fox fought back relentlessly, he felt his magic powers waning as if they were restrained by something.He was helpless to do anything apart from contin

    It wasn't long before Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton moved against their will to fly in circles in the air.Their backs were against each other while attacking the injured nine-tailed demon fox.It looked exactly like a scene from one of the fantasy television dramas they had seen before.Despite the strange sight, Xyla still felt some satisfaction that they could physically hurt the demon fox for a change.Indeed, she owed a debt for what she had done to him in her past life, but she did nothing wrong in this lifetime.She was innocent this time, so she didn’t owe him anything.He had her stepmother and sister brainwashed to torture her, and she even nearly died on several occasions.Then, he instructed Betty Starmount to poison her father and kill him.He even abducted her newborn babies and nearly killed them, too.Xyla could no longer tolerate his existence.She couldn’t accept that her sins in a past life could justify all the harm he inflicted upon her in this lifetime.

    Xyla Quest closed her eyes and silently thought to herself, “Dad, we have avenged your death. From this moment on, my family can live in peace. I hope you will also rest easy and peacefully.”She felt excited then.At first, she expected the nine-tailed demon fox would cause a lot of trouble in her life. She thought they might eventually lose everyone in their family because of him.To their surprise, none of that happened because of Sophie Kenwick and their superpowers that appeared suddenly.As if on cue, a golden ray of light flashed before them before all the red spider lilies scattered, causing countless flaming red petals to dance in the sky.It was a captivating sight to behold. While the petals danced in the air, golden rays of light glistened endlessly.The spirit realm seemed to glow spectacularly.Xyla and Stanley Batton were stunned by the scene before them, observing with interest as the red petals formed a long stairway to the top of the sky.It disappeared amon

    Approximately an hour later, Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton finally made it to the top of the stairs, where they connected to a white, palace-like structure.When they ventured further up, they saw an ancient city gateway with the words ‘Southern Sky Entrance’ written on it.Dense mist surrounded the city walls, making the place look like paradise.Through the mist, they could see soldiers in armors patrolling everywhere.The entire setting reminded them of heavenly palaces they had seen in television dramas.However, they couldn’t see anything else when they peeked further down.There was nothing but white mist beneath them.There were two guards by the city gateway who hastily approached them when they came into sight.“Who are you?” they asked simultaneously.“Where is this place?” Xyla asked in return.“This is the heavenly palace, of course,” one guard replied haughtily.She couldn’t believe what she was hearing. She and Stanley were at the heavenly palace?It turned ou

    Xyla quickly reached for Hannah’s hand. “Is that right? Hannah, you’re amazing…! You’re practically on par with Leon!”Hannah laughed, slightly embarrassed. “Not at all.”“Oh, cut it out. If you hadn’t helped me, how could I have improved so quickly?” Leon chuckled.“I guess I’ve lived up to my promise.” Hannah giggled along.Back then, she had promised Leon that she would become someone deserving of him.She claimed that she would grow with Leon.Without a doubt, she had done it.Now, Hannah had become a successful woman many would often speak of. She earned her rightful seat next to Leon as the CEO of Dragon Group.Stanley also turned to look at Hannah. “Yes, Hannah’s very capable. She’s our family pride.”Hannah laughed. “I was lucky to be accepted by your family.”In fact, Hannah genuinely felt grateful toward the Batton family over the years she had spent with them.They had helped her through all the hardship she encountered when she was poor and down on her luck.Aft

    “Hannah, I’ve taken the first step for you. Are you willing to walk by my side for the rest of our lives?” Leon asked, serious.“Yes, I am…” Hannah answered without missing a beat.“I’ll protect you. From now on, you don’t have to worry about a single thing.” With that, Leon placed both hands on Hannah’s face and kissed her on the lips.The moment their lips touched, everything felt surreal…Hannah could feel pink, light bubbles floating all around her. It felt as if all the flowers in the world were blossoming at once.In Hannah’s dark, depressing life, Leon was her only salvation.He was a ray of hope that led her out of hell, so she could see light once more.Hannah thought she would never have anything to do with Leon after she quit school.Even until now, she still remembered how sorrowful she was on her last day of school.But now… Not only did she get the opportunity to interact with him once more, but they also became a couple.Their driver sighed to himself while

    Over time, Leon’s feelings for Hannah grew deeper, stronger, and more intense.He had grown used to having her with him all the time.Thus, he hoped she would stay by his side for the rest of his life.Upon hearing his words, Hannah’s mind went blank.What did her dream guy just say?Was she dreaming?Hannah quickly pinched her palm at the thought in an attempt to discern between dream and reality.Her palm hurt. That meant this wasn’t a dream. It was real!Hannah felt even more dumbfounded…This meant Leon actually liked her! He was confessing to her, wasn’t he?Did her dream guy actually reciprocate her feelings?Never in her wildest dreams did Hannah imagine she would go through such an experience.Excitement jammed her mind, so much that she was rendered speechless. There were many things she wanted to say, and yet, she couldn’t utter a single word.Her heartbeat increased rapidly, and her entire body began to shake. Sensing her trembling body, Leon tightened his e

    Immediately after, the men in black pulled out guns from their pockets, which they aimed at Raymond’s head.Raymond panicked instantly, going pale.He subconsciously retreated a step back. “Who are you? Don’t you know what you’re doing is illegal?”Leon sneered. “You don’t deserve to know my name. In this city, I am the law.”Leon’s domineering words made him seem even more imposing.At this moment, Hannah felt as if he was a guardian angel sent from Heaven to protect her.Something about him seemed oddly sacred and heavenly.“Mr. Batton, do I shoot him in the head?” One of the men dressed in black asked.“Mr. Batton? Are you Stanley Batton’s son?!” Fear was beginning to spread through Raymond. For one to have Batton as his surname and act this arrogantly in Atlantis, he could be none other than a member of the renowned Batton family.“How dare you address our president by name?!” Another man in black leveled Raymond with a chilling glare.Suffice to say, Raymond was terrif

    Terrible pain ached at every part of Hannah’s body as she collided with the cold, hard ground.The pain was such that all her bones felt close to breaking. Everywhere hurt badly.At that moment, Hannah felt like a fragile doll made of clay that had been forcefully slammed hard against the ground until it broke into small pieces.Her mind went blank from the stinging agony.She braced herself and looked at the cold eyes staring back at her, filled with terror. Stammering, she asked, “Mr. Gray… What is the meaning of this?” “What’s the meaning of this? Ha! Don’t you know what’s good for you? You dumb b*tch… You’re lucky that I set my sights on you!”“How dare you refuse my feelings! Not just that, but you even made up a story to deceive me!”“Even when you saw me, you tried to trick me again!”“Do you think I’m stupid? That I can’t think? Do you honestly think I’d fall for your lies again and again?” Raymond went, his tone steadily rising into a furious roar.He then got on o

    Although the sun had long sunk beneath the horizons and darkness had set in, the lively city wasn’t about to be silent anytime soon. Hannah felt deeply unsettled, so much that she didn’t leave right away.Instead, she waited in front of the bar, filled with hesitance and anxiety.Should she really leave?Would Rihanna truly be able to sort things out?The man was Raymond Gray… Neither Rihanna nor the bar could afford to upset him, lest they face terrible repercussions.Hannah remained standing on the same spot, uncertain. She really didn’t know what to do.Finally, she came to a decision. She took out her phone and tapped open a ride-hailing application on her phone.Yet just as she did that, she instantly closed it. Afterwards, she began pacing back and forth in worried circles, going to and fro aimlessly. Right as she was trapped in her worried musings, a group of people exited the bar. Raymond Gray, dressed in black, sporty attire, led all of them in a flamboyant manner.

    A handsome waiter quickly walked in and looked at Rihanna. “Ms. Jensen, Mr. Gray out there insists that Hannah should get on stage to sing another song. I told him that Hannah would only sing three songs today…”“He lost his temper and claimed he’d destroy our bar if Hannah refuses to sing another song…” The waiter added. He was visibly trembling by the end of the sentence.Hannah figured Mr. Gray was probably the only son of the new mayor of Atlantis there weren’t many people with Gray as their surname in Atlantis. There were even less people who were arrogant like him. He was the only one.Hannah had heard about how terrible this person could be. He was known to be a womanizer too.Due to his powerful background, he looked down on everyone else. He didn’t respect women at all… Moreover, he had a relatively cruel personality. One could almost describe him as being a pervert.There was once when an owner of a bar offended a female internet celebrity he was dating. He directly hired

    Hannah Roland smiled politely at Lina Cohen. “Nice to meet you… Thank you in advance!”“No problem… Do let me know if there’s anything you don’t like about your makeup too,” Lina said.Hannah nodded. “Okay, sure…”“By the way… Do all the signers here get such good treatment? I’m surprised we’re even assigned our own makeup artists,” Hannah asked carefully as she wasn’t aware about things like these..However, Lina smiled without answering Hannah’s question directly. She held Hannah’s hand casually the next second, “Come here. I’ll start doing your makeup now…”Hannah nodded…Lina was a very professional makeup artist. She took an hour to finish Hannah’s makeup.An hour later, Hannah’s appearance transformed completely.Lina permed Hannah’s long, black hair into natural-looking curls.Hannah had intricate peach-colored makeup on her face which made her appear lively and youthful.Once Lina was done with Hannah’s makeup, she happily retrieved a long, white dress from a clothes

    Hannah Roland smiled without saying anything.***Hannah arrived at the bar where she worked at seven o’clock the next evening and walked into Rihanna Jensen’s office.Rihanna was going through paperwork in her office. When she saw Hannah, she immediately stood up and smiled at her. “Hannah, you’re here…”“Here’s the contract…” Rihanna said before pushing a thick stack of paper to the center of the table.Hannah quickly stepped forward and skimmed through the document. She then picked up a pen and signed it…Rihanna smiled upon seeing this. “Okay… I’ll transfer the money into your account tonight… I’ve told our big boss about your situation. He’s fine with my decision to pay your salary in advance. In fact, he even told me I did a good job…”“He said you can sing without worrying about a single thing… If you need any help in the future, do let us know…” Rihanna added.Hannah felt glad when she heard this, and became teary-eyed. “Thank you… Please thank our big boss for me too.
