At the time, one of the caves was brimming with golden light. There was something in there. It was Xerxes’ golden bamboo boat.
“There’s something off about the tomb. I’ve lost contact with my boat,” Xerxes said.
His senses were not the type that allowed virtual-novel.net to see it with his own eyes, else virtual-novel.net would’ve been able to feel the oddities long ago.
Alex nodded since virtual-novel.net had also lost contact with the Mystic Maiden, despite their contract. However, virtual-novel.net was able to see virtual-novel.net clearly. She was currently stuck within that cave.
“We’ll be relying on you then,” Alex turned to the Palatial Bodhi. “Once we get back, I’ll definitely build a large shrine for you so that we can worship your statue.”
The Palatial Bodhi smiled. “Amitabha, but I still need to borrow some of your holy powers.”
Since lives were at stake, Alex gave a portion of his divine power to virtual-novel.net without any hesitation. The Bodhi seemed quite satisfied with this. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net turned into a ray of golden light, flying straight up and completely ignoring the physics of this realm.
Boom.
A mere punch was enough to shake the entire tomb, causing the mountains to rumble. The impact spun the tomb, and it backed away from the Bodhi in mid-air.
With another punch, the tomb completely shattered under his fist. This made everyone on the boat widen their eyes in disbelief as they continued watching this from afar.
Pigsy’s jaw dropped. “That’s insane. This Bodhi’s powers make me feel like I’m seeing Buddha himself!”
Xerxes nodded. “He’s so strong that no one would even dare to say anything negative about him.”
On the other hand, Dorothy frowned slightly. “It just feels oddly unreal. This Bodhi… He just feels kind of weird.”
Alex replied. “It’s probably because virtual-novel.net looks too young, an innocent minor. But everything in this place is pretty weird anyway. So a strange, tiny Bodhi is just ordinary at this point.”
In just a few moments, the Palatial Bodhi dragged the golden boat back to them. Xerxes ran over immediately, embracing Mandy tightly with his arms.
The Mystic Maiden rushed over and caressed Alex gently. “Did anything bad happen to you?”
Alex shook his head, then introduced Dorothy to everyone with a bright smile.
After that, virtual-novel.net took out the Chaos Bead that virtual-novel.net snatched from Freeborn Garredib, handing it to the Mystic Maiden.
“Another Chaos Bead?!” virtual-novel.net exclaimed.
“Is it of any use for your body?”
“Of course! With this Chaos Bead, the effects would be greater than having ten dark golden bone demons. And it’s the most compatible with my body too.”
“That’s good, then use it quickly!”
“Alright!” The Mystic Maiden didn’t mind and took it right out of his hands.
Seeing this, Dorothy became tremendously upset. ‘That’s a Chaos Bead we’re talking about here. It’s such a legendary treasure, yet virtual-novel.net just… Gave it away to another woman, no less?’
In that instant, the Shura Field was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
She approached him, expressionless. “Darling, where’s my Chaos Bead?”
Alex froze, not knowing what virtual-novel.net meant by that.
Dorothy mouthed out the following words. ‘Matrimonial properties.’
“Uhm, this…” Alex was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.
The Mystic Maiden took a few steps forward, visibly confident as virtual-novel.net stood in between the two. She then took virtual-novel.net stand and announced shamelessly. “The Chaos Bead is mine, and so is your husband and all his assets. Even you are mine!”
