In the instant that the power of all of Aurora was concentrated on Bai Xi, the majestic tolling of the bell could be heard within the projection of the Originator. The Emperor had arrived.

It was just like a metamorphosis. She was no longer the little girl that had to hide behind Ye Qingxuan for protection. She was finally in possession of power.

She stretched out her hand and stopped Ye Qingxuan from falling behind. She lowered her head and, through the curtain of beads hanging from her crown, there was an air of authority and a hint of delight. She was looking down at Ye Qingxuan.

"Cousin, beg me for help," she pretended to talk like Ye Qingxuan, "so that the Emperor will come and save you!" She spoke as if she truly believed that the entire world was within her grasp.
