Martin and Jigson were lucky because they were far from Saine.

Just now, both of them had considered making a move against Saine, but because they were too far away, Kanterla beat them to it.

Looking back now, it was a good decision to snatch Kanterla!

If Kanterla hadn't been the first to rush in and test the waters, wouldn't they have been the ones who suffered?

In fact, both Martin and Jigson can be linked to Saine in some way.

Martin was the former headmaster of the Black Wizard Academy, and Jigson was the dueling notary that Lina had hired.

When those two cunning old foxes stopped in time and put on an innocent act, it seemed there really was no excuse to attack them.

With a few stomps from Bixi, the level three Black Magician Kanterla, was completely obliterated.

Even Saine was somewhat taken aback at this moment.

He glanced at the tortoise-shaped formation of the Bixi below the sea level with lingering fear. He had never realized that Bixi could have such a violent side.

That kind of force from a foot (jo) would probably make even a Level-4 lifeform cough up blood.

With the level three Black Magician Kanterla forcefully eliminated, the battle on this sea surface came to a complete end.

The fall of two Black Magician didn't even make the Giant Mermaid Bai Xing blink.

Bai Xing slowly approached Saine and said, "My sister insisted on coming to see you after she learned that you had come out of the Knight Continent Trial Zone."

"Luckily, we're not too late. →69🅂🄷🅄🅇.🄲🄾🄼," Bai Xing said.

It was clearly Bai Xing and Bixi who were secretly keeping an eye on Saine, but he claimed that they had just arrived.

Saine himself doesn't like having his privacy invaded.

However, since Bai Xing and Bixi had saved him again, he naturally wouldn't say anything more.

"Thank you for saving me Bixi and Bai Xing Baixing," Saine replied.

He originally wanted to call Bai Xing "senior," but remembering that Bai Xing had said before that he could call her "sister" like Bixi, Saine called her that without any pressure.

At his core, Saine is a rather pragmatic man.

Aside from Lina causing Saine to lose his mind, Saine will almost always follow what is best for himself.

By recognizing a giant Mermaid with a level five Life Level as his sister, Saine wasn't at a disadvantage; in fact, he was the one who gained.

Bai Xing is no ordinary Level 5 creature; just look at the Sea King Class surrounding her!

Those Sea King Class are all its pets!

Saine didn't know exactly how many Sea King Class there were in the Wizard World, but based on Bai Xing's current strength, she said she might be able to recruit more level four or higher creatures as helpers than her grandmaster Cuilisi.

Not to mention the powerful families behind Bixi and Bai Xing.

"Saving you was just a small favor."

"But I didn't expect you to have such a deep connection with the Black Magician of the Black Domain," Bai Xing said, her beautiful eyes gazing at Martin and the other Black Magician in the distance.

Bai Xing is not a cute, ignorant Bixi.

This giant Mermaid is absolutely knowledgeable about the composition of the Black Domain, as well as the status and current situation of the Black Magician community in the Wizard World.

Even with her level five strength and the considerable power of her family, Bai Xing still didn't want to get involved with the Black Domain.

The waters here run very deep.

Even Bai Xing and Bixi's father never expressed any opinion on matters related to the Black Domain.

In the Wizard World, the Black Domain is a special region that everyone despises.

But Bai Xing seemed to have heard somewhere that the Black Domain also had its own necessity and historical origins.

The Wizard World has developed for so many years, and there has never been any True Spirit-level powerhouse who wanted to abolish the Black Domain.

"To not pay excessive attention to it, to restrict its development, and to let it fend for itself" has always been the policy implemented in the Wizard World.

Despite being restricted for so many years, the Black Domain itself doesn't seem to have changed much.

From 100,000 years ago to the present, the number of Black Tower and the number of Black Magician of Level 4 and above in the Black Domain have remained within a stable range.

There has been virtually no increase, nor has there ever been a precipitous drop.

Since Saine had called her "sister, "Bai Xing naturally didn't want Saine to get entangled with the Black Magician of the Black Domain.

The Origin Power of the Wizard World within Saine was hard-won. If he were to truly succumb and become one of the Black Magician, that Plane Source Power would inevitably wither and eventually disappear.

However, Bai Xing knew that Saine worked at the Azure Source Holy Tower, and his mentor was a fourth-level tower master, so he shouldn't do something so irrational.

"Have you finished dealing with your business?"

"Having been in the Western Islands for so long, shouldn't it be time to go back?"

"My sister Bixi is insisting on going to the Azure Source Holy Tower with you. Before that, I need to introduce her to your older brother. You can come along too," Bai Xing said, tossing her long silver hair.

Upon hearing this, Saine remained silent for a moment, then turned his head to look in the direction where Lina and the others were.

Then she looked up at Bai Xing and said, "I've basically finished taking care of my business, but there are a few things I'd like to trouble you with, sister."

"Oh?" Bai Xing raised an eyebrow. "A few things?"

Saine felt a little embarrassed. He wasn't the kind of person who was particularly thick-skinned, and he rarely asked others for favors.

But since it concerned his loved ones, as well as his senior brothers and sisters, he had to bring it up.

"Please, sister, you must help me!" Saine said, bowing his head.

The Dragon Turtle Bixi blinked its big eyes, looking at Saine curiously, seemingly not quite understanding why Saine was behaving so formally.

"Hmm, go ahead and tell me." Bai Xing gently flicked her fishtail.

A giant, shell-shaped Sea King Class appeared behind Bai Xing at just the right moment, slowly opening its shell to reveal a fleshy pad and a dazzling white pearl inside.

Bai Xing leaned against the giant seashell, her arm supporting the white pearl, watching Saine with great interest.

Without any hesitation, Saine turned around and brought Lina and the others here.

When Lina was summoned, Jigson, Demigod-level Magician from the Pale Bone Black Tower, didn't dare utter a sound. The old man even managed to force out an almost fawning smile.

Even Martin, the third-level Black Magician, no longer had that arrogant attitude he had before.

Martin kept his head down, ignoring the gaze that Saine inadvertently turned to him.

A pale blue barrier appeared around the Giant Mermaid Bai Xing.

Inside the barrier, facing the request that Saine had just made, Bai Xing shook her head and said, "I can't help you."

Seemingly noticing the bitter, disappointed look on Saine's face, and the bewildered blink of Bixi beside him.

Bai Xing straightened up slightly from her reclining position and said, "We are all beings living under a system of rules, whether it's you or me."

"The rules of the Holy Tower and the Knights' Hall in the Wizard World have been established over millions of years of Wizard World history, and are absolutely not something that you or I can easily shake."

"Even those True Spirit Dominator would have to wait until the Wizard Alliance Assembly to propose a bill if they wanted to change the rules of the Holy Tower."

"Since your little girlfriend is wanted by all the Holy Tower and Knights' Hall in the Wizard World, there are only two ways to solve this problem," said the Giant Mermaid Bai Xing.
