"Ask the Planar Overseer for help? That's a good idea." Weiersi immediately agreed. Since the Planar Overseer was specifically responsible for overseeing Material Planes, perhaps she had a way to remedy this.
"Let's go." Luo Ao actually held little hope anymore, but now he could only pin his hopes on Betty having a solution.
Thus, the three, who had only just arrived at Gloomy Gorge, immediately set off again without stopping to rest, seeking out the Planar Overseer, Betty.
On the Boya Continent, there was a terrifying forest that spanned more than ten million li-the Nightmare Forest!
The Nightmare Forest had existed for so long that its age could no longer be verified. Its vast expanse meant that many human adventurers who ventured deep within could not cross to its far end in an entire lifetime.
Legend had it that, apart from vast numbers of magical beasts, many ancient races also dwelled within the immense Nightmare Forest, such as elves, fairies, dwarves, and mountain giants.
Deep within the Nightmare Forest stood Mount Tesla, indisputably its tallest mountain. It rose more than a hundred thousand meters, towering straight into the clouds.
At the summit of Mount Tesla stood no fewer than eleven gigantic teleportation arrays. Aside from these arrays, there was only a small, exquisitely designed courtyard residence. Miss Betty, the Boya Plane's Planar Overseer, generally lived here.
"To think Aogemate was killed so easily. That's rather unexpected." A beautiful woman with golden curls, dressed in an exquisite blue-green gown, stood alone on the summit, a remarkably intelligent black cat lying in her arms.
Although this black cat looked very affectionate and utterly adorable, it was actually a bloodthirsty Shadow Demon Panther. Yet even this ill-tempered Shadow Demon Panther did not dare casually defy its mistress.
"Hmm? Someone's coming?" The golden-curled beauty, Betty, soon noticed Luo Ao's party approaching.
The three made no attempt to conceal their movements on the way. Although Betty's delicate brows knitted slightly, she was not overly concerned.
She had her status as Planar Overseer. Unless someone held an exalted position like that lord, even those stronger than her would not dare lay a hand on her lightly.
Thus, she raised her delicate hand and prepared three cups of Golden Moon Tea from the Light God Plane, setting them on a round wooden table. Then she stood quietly in the courtyard, awaiting the three's arrival.
"They're here." Perhaps her visitors were in a hurry, for they had not slowed down even upon reaching the courtyard's perimeter. Still, the soul aura of the person in the lead was not entirely unfamiliar to Betty.
"Miss Betty, we meet again." Luo Ao's black eyes turned toward Miss Betty, the Planar Overseer, his gaze quite calm.
"It's actually you. I never imagined you would grow so quickly." The expression on Betty's exquisite face could not help changing.
Although she had heard that peerless geniuses existed in this world who reached Lowgod in ten years, God in a hundred, and Highgod in a thousand.
She had never expected such a genius to emerge on the Boya Continent, much less someone she had known before.
"It seems you must have been the one who killed Aogemate, too. Impressive! Luo Ao, even in the vast Divine Planes, your talent would probably rank among the very best." Betty adopted completely different attitudes toward powerful individuals, geniuses, and ordinary people.
Seeing Luo Ao again now, she became exceedingly courteous, her words full of praise for him, with none of her earlier lofty manner apparent.
After all, in her eyes, as long as a genius like Luo Ao did not fall along the way, he was destined to be extraordinary even in a Divine Plane.
There was no need for her to offend such a person again.
"Big Sister Betty, we actually came here to ask for your help..." Echidna was the most familiar with Betty, so she took the initiative to explain the matter.
"Ask for my help?" Betty looked momentarily taken aback, then listened as Echidna explained the matter of the sealing magic array.
"This is going to be troublesome..." To be honest, this situation was closely tied to her as well.
After all, under normal circumstances, no one would touch a Planar Overseer. But these prisoners, who had already been locked away by Planar Overseers for endless years, might not concern themselves with all those considerations.
However, how could repairing that sealing magic array be so easy?
Never mind a mere God like her-even the elders of her clan might not necessarily be able to do it.
After all, every field had its specialists, and the profound mysteries of magic arrays differed from both the seven laws and the four edicts.
Although every elder of her Cecilia clan was an important figure at the Seven Star Light Chaser level, they were not necessarily proficient in the art of magic arrays.
"All I can do is report this matter for you. As for when someone from above will come to deal with it, I can't say." Betty's words instantly left all three deeply disappointed.
Still, this was actually quite normal.
After all, although the problem that had now arisen was very important to the native beings of the Boya Plane, to the lofty Sovereigns, a little trouble in a mere one or two Material Planes might not matter at all.
Never mind the Sovereigns-even the Sovereign's Emissaries under them who were responsible for handling such matters might not attach much importance to it.
If they were lucky, an important figure from a Divine Plane might come to handle it immediately. If they were unlucky, the matter might simply be left unresolved, with no one coming to attend to it at all.
After all, this was no longer the time when heaven and earth had first formed. The Sovereigns no longer placed such importance on the power of faith from Material Planes.
Naturally, a minor problem in one or two Material Planes would not draw their attention either.
"This..." Weiersi did not know what to say upon hearing this. However, he had already made up his mind: if someone powerful escaped, he would simply leave for the Life Divine Realm immediately.
"Luo Ao, and Echidna, you're both geniuses. There's really no need for you to concern yourselves with matters in this Material Plane. The Divine Planes are the stage where the two of you can show what you're capable of." Betty had been born in the Light God Plane. How could she understand the affection and importance Luo Ao and Echidna attached to their home plane?
To Luo Ao, the Boya Plane was where he had gained a new lease on life. It held all his beautiful memories. How could he possibly leave it to its fate?
"This is the only way." Luo Ao soon made his decision.
Better to rely on himself than beg others. In the end, he would still have to resolve this matter himself.
"Hey, Luo Ao, where are you going?!" Seeing Luo Ao fly off again without another word, Echidna hurried after him. After hesitating for a moment, Weiersi decided not to involve himself in this matter any further.
The Elven Empire in his memories had long since become yesterday's faded flowers, and none of the familiar people remained on today's Boya Continent. Naturally, he did not care about this matter as much as Luo Ao did.
"I did encounter some surviving elves on the way here. I'll stay in this Nightmare Forest for a while." Having rarely encountered other members of his race, Weiersi decided to take shelter here for the time being.
Meanwhile, Luo Ao had once again arrived in the deep, secluded cavern beneath Gloomy Gorge.
His gaze was now fixed on the area above the azure platform.
"Luo Ao, what are you doing?!" Echidna watched Luo Ao's next actions in shock, unable to stop herself from crying out loudly!
