As these two events coincided, the white-haired woman guarding the door couldn’t help but spring to Franca’s mind again.
Could they be part of the same group?
Was it coincidence, or was it an order?
With the situation unclear, Franca directly spoke up to ask.
With the first phase of Spiritual Energy heart-crossing initiated, Franca unsheathed her Longsword, her boots stomped swiftly, and within a few flashes, she had reached Bai E’s side. Their swords—a noble’s rapier and the Bloodletting Vampire’s greatsword—met head-on to ward off an attack, and only then did she lean back-to-back with Bai E.

The young miss turned her head sideways, her gaze sharp, "Should I call you Bai E, or should I address you as Your Lordship?"
"Perhaps Bai E would suffice?" Bai E pursed his lips, a smile on his face, even taking the time to jest, "Things are a bit tricky."
While speaking, Bai E glanced at the pool of blood behind several Bloodletting Vampires. As time passed, whether it was an illusion or not, Bai E felt that the pool’s area seemed to be expanding, but if he enlarged his perspective and used the material world’s abandoned factory itself as a reference, the size of the blood pool seemed to remain unchanged.
This was the enigmatic and unpredictable nature of high-dimensional space entities, not to be measured by common sense.
Franca’s eyes, clear in their division of black and white, also swept across the blood pool. She had read a lot in books, but this was her first encounter with a high-dimensional space invasion of this magnitude.
Experience in handling such... she had none at the moment.
At that time, the knowledge from the books was gradually awakening within her. She still remembered the matter that had made her exceedingly curious, "That white-haired girl outside the door, do you know her?"
"Mhm." Bai E replied shortly, simultaneously smashing aside two descending greatswords with a single swing, the clashing of metal jarring Franca’s eardrums slightly itchy.
Franca fiddled with her ear with her little finger, full of curiosity, "Your teacher?"
Although it seemed peculiar, the girl didn’t look much older, but the master could still be a teacher... That level of Spiritual Energy was hard to find throughout the city; add to that Bai E’s own level of Spiritual Energy, and the disparity became obvious.
In the eyes of those who were constantly in touch with Spiritual Energy, the way they viewed the world was fundamentally from the perspective of Spiritual Energy.
Even with a sense of caution in her heart, the theory of Spiritual Energy supremacy still dictated the majority of their views when dealing with situations.
Bai E muttered with a somewhat strange expression, "Teacher?"
"Isn’t she?" Even if she wasn’t a teacher in all respects, she must at least be one in terms of Spiritual Energy.
Since Bai E was equated with that mysterious Lord, then past views had to be changed.
Human elites who attain a certain height of power all inevitably need to engage with Spiritual Energy, unless they have completely mechanized their bodies, to advance further.
If Bai E possessed the level of combat power displayed by that mysterious Lord, then he surely must have Spiritual Energy within him.
This explained his mediocre display during the Psychic Pressure Resistance Training—his possession of Spiritual Energy in a low stage did not offer much in terms of resistance to pressure, but instead made him more susceptible to it due to sensitivity, compared to ordinary people.
But Bai E’s identity as an artificial human was undeniable; artificial humans couldn’t possibly possess innate Spiritual Energy, and without someone to guide them, they would never set foot in the world of Spiritual Energy.
So... it could only be that, during his outings, he happened upon the white-haired girl, who gave him guidance, and after that, he rapidly transformed from a newly created artificial human into today’s supreme leader.
It seemed... rather plausible?
Based on the few clues she had observed at hand, Franca directly envisioned the entire process of Bai E’s rise to power.
"Right..." Bai E didn’t argue any further, for Nova’s origins were indeed hard to explain. Since the young miss had her own speculations, it was better to go along with them.
The white-haired girl in a hood came trotting merrily from outside, calling out to Bai E from a distance with a face full of eagerness for approval, "I knocked them all out, can you stop being mad at me now?"
Bai’s recent look had particularly troubled her; it was the sole reason for her concerted efforts now.
The girl’s voice trembled slightly as she spoke, and the imperceptible quiver at the corner of her eyes spoke of fear and insecurity.
"..."
Franca’s body shuddered, her gaze lingering on Nova, who had run in as if to claim credit, before slowly shifting back to Bai E.
What had she just heard?
Such a humble tone... Do you know your own strength? Is there a need to speak so meekly?
And such a powerful expert, yet a subordinate... or someone of a lower position to this guy?
As a newly created artificial human not long ago, what had this guy become in such a short period of time?
"You should rest for a bit..." Bai E’s tone was as gentle as possible; the complete trust of these new souls in themselves meant that any bit of his emotion could cause them great harm, although he hadn’t paid too much attention to it in the urgency of the moment.
"Hmm," Bai E hummed briefly in response, and at the same time, smashed away two longswords that chopped down simultaneously, the clashing of metal making Franca’s eardrums itch a bit.
Franca picked her ear with her little finger, full of curiosity, "Your teacher?"
Although it was a bit strange, as the girl didn’t look old, but the wise could be teachers... such a level of Spiritual Energy was rare throughout the city, and in comparison to Bai E’s own Spiritual Energy level, the disparity was stark.
To those in their circles who were constantly in touch with Spiritual Energy, the way they observed the world was inherently based on Spiritual Energy.
Even with a vigilant mind, the theory of Spiritual Energy supremacy still shaped most of their views in handling situations.
Bai E looked somewhat bewildered as he muttered, "Teacher?"
"Isn’t she?" Even if not a teacher in all respects, at least in terms of Spiritual Energy.
Now that Bai E and the mysterious figure were equated, past views had to be reconsidered.
Human experts of a certain level, unless they completely relied on mechanical modifications to their bodies, inevitably needed to engage with Spiritual Energy to progress further.
Since Bai E possessed the kind of combat power demonstrated by the mysterious figure, he must inherently possess Spiritual Energy.
This explained his mediocre performance in the Psychic Pressure Resistance Training—he had Spiritual Energy, but at the lower stages, it did not provide much support against pressure; instead, due to sensitivity, it made him more susceptible to impact than normal people.
And Bai E’s status as an artificial human wasn’t false; artificial humans couldn’t possibly have an innate talent for Spiritual Energy, and without someone to guide them, they would never step through the doors of Spiritual Energy in their lifetimes.
So... it was during his time outside that he casually met that white-haired girl and received her guidance, and that afterward, he quickly transformed from a newly born artificial person into the absolute leader he is today.
It seemed, quite reasonable?
Based on the clues she had already observed, Franca directly concocted the entire process of Bai E’s rise.
"Right..." Bai E didn’t bother to explain further, Nova’s origins were indeed hard to explain, and since this young lady had her own conjectures, it was better to just indulge her.
The hooded, white-haired girl ran in cheerfully from outside, calling out to Bai E from afar, "I knocked them all out; can you not be mad at me now?"
The look Bai had given her just now was of particular concern to her, and that was the sole reason she was working so hard at this moment.
The girl’s tone trembled slightly as she spoke, with a barely perceptible tremble at the corners of her eyes, full of fear and anxiety.
"..."
Franca’s body shuddered, her gaze lingering on Nova, who had run in as if to claim credit, before slowly shifting back to Bai E.
What had she just heard?
Such a humble tone... Do you know your own strength? Is there a need to speak so meekly?
And such a powerful expert, yet a subordinate... or someone of a lower position to this guy?
