Her eyes lingered heavily on the white pear blossom tree. “Gillian, did this tree cause trouble for the 9th Legion?”
Gillian stroked the tree’s trunk gently. “Ms. Voss, this tree itself is neither good nor evil. Everything depends on who wields its power.”
The tree had never been the problem. The real fault lay with those who used it to set deadly
traps.
Elowen felt that Gillian was exactly her type, and the things she said made Elowen feel a sense of mutual admiration.
She smiled warmly, “Well spoken. I like your way of thinking. You may borrow this pear blossom tree.”
Gillian bowed gratefully. “Thank you, Ms. Voss. I will pass your thanks on to Merrick.”
She asked Elowen to keep her distance from the tree for the time being. The beastmen left behind by George also guided Elowen aside.
Elowen obeyed without argument.
She was certain the tree would remain unharmed now. She sat quietly at the service counter, eager to see what Gillian planned to do next.
The hotel attendants finally calmed down after seeing Elowen relax. Linnea and Yvette hurried over to her side.
They wanted to bring up the Phoenixkin beastman Gillian had killed and ask how Winterhush House would handle the fallout.
Elowen shook her head to stop them. “Hold on. Let us first watch what Gillian is about to do.”
Gillian intended to activate the fragment ability of Blue Phoenix and pull Merrick and Freya into the arena alongside herself.
This fragment resonated with the piece locked inside the Central World Marker, which made the teleportation highly likely to succeed.
Best of all, Gillian’s bloodline allowed her to unlock Blue Phoenix’s genetic seal.

A tiny miniature Blue materialized on Gillian’s shoulder. It tilted its cute head and let out sharp little chirps.
Gillian ordered sharply, “Stand guard. No one is allowed within 30 feet of this tree.”
The soldiers shouted in unison, “Yes, Captain Sterling.”
They had heard Gillian say a Phoenixkin beastman had attacked Merrick’s wife. Two women were present: Gillian and Elara. Whichever one the spouse might be, they were bound to protect both of them.
Gillian turned to Lily. “Lily, shield me. Keep all intruders away.”
She nestled herself inside Lily’s bloom. The giant lily flower wrapped its petals around Gillian and burrowed down into the soil.
The sweet fragrance of the lily mixed with the scent of pear blossoms, thick and cloying in the
air.
Just as Gillian had predicted, the two remaining fragments of Blue Phoenix resonated strongly with each other.
The link pulled her, everyone at the Central World Marker, and Freya straight into the arena
zone.
Merrick blinked as the mine tunnel vanished around him, and Norris disappeared without a
trace.
He scanned the new surroundings sharply and caught sight of Gillian running toward him at
once.
Merrick said in surprise, “Gillian? How did you get in here?”
He recognized her unique scent immediately.
The psionic form that had engulfed him countless times-how could he possibly mistake it?
Convinced it was truly her, he pulled her tightly into his arms.
Gillian laughed softly, “You hold me without even checking if I am a fake?”
Merrick said with quiet pride. “I would never mistake you for anyone else.”

I will never mistake my own wife for someone else.
Merrick smiled, “Can you tell me what’s going on?”

Gillian said seriously, “You have been framed. Norris broadcast your fight across the entire Outer Planet live on StarNet. The Department of Justice has arrived in Wasteland City and intends to arrest you.”
Merrick clicked his tongue. “That lowlife is even more ruthless than I am.”
He pressed a light kiss to her lips. “Can’t I just prove he is a parasite?”
Gillian nodded firmly. “Of course, we will expose their true identity as crimson hides. That is why I went to all this trouble to teleport everyone into the arena.”
A sudden cry came from the hillside nearby; it was Freya.
Gillian and Merrick rushed over at once.
