"Xiao hope, take down this Eddie Leon!"

"Haha, do you really think you can resist Edelion? How naive! Now it's time to show you my true strength."

At this moment, Giglene, who was in the council, gradually disappeared and appeared in front of Erza. Erza looked at the reappearing Giglene in surprise and said, "Gigglene, what are you doing here?"

“Why can’t I be here, Erza?” Gigrein said, looking at Erza.

"But aren't you in the council?" "The council? The council is in complete chaos now." At this moment, Ultear had already used the lost magic 'Arc of Time' to completely decay the council building, just as Gigrein had said.

"I'm very grateful to that woman. She helped me achieve this wish. Remember when we first met? Was it when you came with Makarov to submit a letter of apology to the council? She mistook me for Gerald and attacked me. We look so alike, there's nothing I can do about it. You finally accepted it when you heard we were twins, but that still didn't get rid of your hostility."

“Of course, even though you’re the older brother, you’ve tacitly approved of what Jellal wanted to do. No, that’s not all, you’ve also been spying on me,” Erza said to Giglene.

“That’s right, that was my mistake. I should have told you then that I would find Gerald and stop him no matter what. But it was my biggest mistake to meet you after finally getting into the Council. There’s nothing more painful than suddenly coming up with an excuse,” Gigurine continued.

Upon hearing Gigurine's words, Erza said, "So you were all in cahoots after all."

“Collusion? That’s not how it works.” “That’s not right, Erza,” Jellal chimed in from the side.

Suddenly, the two spoke at the same time: "We are one person, from the very beginning." After saying that, the two joined together.

The clash between Li Xiaoxi's magic and Edelion's in the sky had reached its climax. Initially, the two were evenly matched, but the aftershocks of their battle posed a significant threat to Natsu and the others. If Li Xiaoxi's battle with Joseph had impressed them, the aftershocks of her current fight with Edelion were comparable to those battles with Joseph. Just how terrifying is Li Xiaoxi's strength?! Is this the power she gained from completing the century-long mission?

Having regained his strength, Gerald was deeply shocked to see Li Xiaoxi actually block the attack of Edelion, who was said to be capable of destroying a nation. However, now was not the time for him to be shocked. Li Xiaoxi's blocking of the descending Edelion was something Gerald hadn't anticipated in his plans. But Gerald wouldn't just watch Li Xiaoxi hinder his plans.

Just as Gerald was about to attack Li Xiaoxi, he was interrupted by Mirajane, who had been staring at Gerald for a long time.

“Xiao hope is right. Sure enough, after you saw Xiao hope block that Edilion, you wanted to ambush her.” Mirajane immediately used his strongest magic, the Soul of Satan.

Chapter 258 The Restricted Meteor

"You think you can defeat me with just an S-class mage like you? Aren't you being a bit too naive?" Jellal said calmly, seemingly not taking Mirajane seriously.

“What if we join them?” Natsu and Gray asked, standing behind Mirajane.

“No matter how many small fry there are, they’re still small fry. It doesn’t change anything. I absolutely will not allow anyone to ruin my plans,” Gerald said, and then attacked Li Xiaoxi again.

But Natsu and the others blocked all these attacks. Natsu said, "As long as I'm here, don't hurt Hibiki."

At this point, the battle between Li Xiaoxi and Edelion had entered a decisive stage. Because Li Xiaoxi could replenish her magic power at any time, Edelion was only expending his own. Soon, Li Xiaoxi gained the upper hand, and Edelion was suppressed by her.

At this point, the council also realized that something was wrong.

After Zekrein's disappearance, the council was thrown into chaos by Ultear's spacetime magic. Ultear then revealed their plan and purpose to the council members who had been kept in the dark. Only then did the council realize Ultear and Jellal's true intentions, but the magical spirit energy already launched couldn't be retracted. However, after Ultear left, the council members reported to them that the magical spirit energy had been blocked in mid-air by someone.

Upon hearing this news, the council used magic to witness a scene they would never forget. Li Xiaoxi was flying in the air, and she and the magical spirits were actually on equal footing. The council members were shocked by Li Xiaoxi's magical power. On the other hand, seeing that the magical spirits had failed to achieve Jellal and the others' plan, they realized that the council hadn't made the wrong decision.

However, in the next meeting, no one disagreed with Li Xiaoxi's position as one of the Ten Saints; everyone voted in favor.

Seeing that most of the magical spirit power had been neutralized by her own efforts, Li Xiaoxi used another card, the "Xiaoxi Card," the "Shift Card," to move the magical spirit power directly to the nearby sea surface. Upon contact with the sea, a powerful wind carrying the scent of seawater swept through the area within several kilometers of the R system.

"This is absolutely inhuman!" Li Xiaoxi exclaimed, waving her hands.

Gray and Lucy, who were actually fighting Jellal, both exclaimed at the same time, "This is definitely not something a human would do!"

Jellal truly lives up to his title as one of the Ten Wizard Saints; his magical power and abilities far surpass those of Mirajane and the others. Even when Mirajane and Natsu joined forces, they were still overwhelmed by Jellal.

"Alright, now it's my turn! Let me give this ambitious schemer who's trying to plot against Fairy Tail a good thrashing. Mirajane, Natsu, Gray, Erza, Lucy... oh, Lucy's over there. You all step aside and let me take on this Wizard of Ten."

Lucy was really hurt by Li Xiaoxi's words, and now she's really complaining!

After Mirajane and the others dispersed, Jellal looked at the vanished magical spirit power, his face contorted with rage.

"Since you're hindering my plans, then you'll all die!" Geralt's current magical power was significantly stronger than what he had previously displayed. "Since you possess magical power capable of resisting magical spirit power, it means your magical power is roughly equivalent to that of magical spirit power. Doesn't that mean that as long as I have your magical power, my plan can still be executed?"

Erza couldn't bear to see her former friend like this and turned away.

"What, you've turned your attention to me now?"

Yes.

Li Xiaoxi has been targeted.

Because of Li Xiaoxi's unrestrained and excessive use of magic power, Gerald discovered the vast and boundless magical power within her body, leading him to conclude that Li Xiaoxi possessed magical power equivalent to that of a magical spirit!

Perhaps, in terms of sheer power, Li Xiaoxi is not yet capable of achieving the same destructive power as the Magical Spirit, capable of destroying a country.

In terms of magical power alone, the magical power within Li Xiaoxi's body, if not infinite, is certainly vast and boundless, absolutely comparable to the Council's strategic weapons.

"You shall submit here as a sacrifice to bring Zeref back to life!"

Amidst the tremors in the space, a suppressed magical power emanated from Gerald's body. It permeated every corner of Gerald's being, causing even his aura to surge dramatically, becoming incomparably powerful.

If Jellal's strength wasn't yet at the level of the Ten Wizard Saints before, then at this moment, his power is definitely at the level of the Ten Wizard Saints!

"Let me show you my true magic!"

As he said this, Gerald crouched down like a cheetah, placing his hands on the ground and fixing his gaze intently on Noah.

"Buzz—!"

As a golden magic circle spun out from the ground beneath Gerald, a dazzling golden light enveloped his body.

"meteor----!"

The sound, like an echo, rippled around and reverberated.

"laugh----!"

With a faint whooshing sound, Gerald, whose body was filled with golden light, transformed into a shooting star and shot out suddenly.

Like a shooting star, Gerald shot towards Li Xiaoxi and appeared right in front of her. He clenched his fist suddenly, gathered magic power, and slammed it hard into Li Xiaoxi's chest without any fancy moves.

This punch wasn't particularly tricky or vicious.

Yes, it's just that the terrifying speed brings with it an extremely terrifying attack speed.

Under the influence of such terrifying attack speed, the air around Gerald's fist became slightly turbulent, as if an invisible vortex had formed around Gerald's fist, which swung forward with a piercing sonic boom.

With a calmness that would be hard for others to believe, Li Xiaoxi judged Gerald's strength. After using the magic called Meteor, he had reached the level of the Ten Wizard Saints. The magic power in his body flowed like a flood with a roar.

"Buzz—!"

Another tremor resounded, and a dense white light surged rapidly from Li Xiaoxi's body, like a shockwave, crashing head-on into Gerald's heavily swung fist.

"Bang—!"

At the moment of impact, a loud explosion suddenly rang out.

That was the sound of the dazzling light representing the magic called Meteor bursting forth from Gerald's body.

"Smack—!"

Without the aid of Meteor's super-speed, Gerald's straight punch was like a paper tiger to Li Xiaoxi. She simply raised her hand and caught it firmly with a crisp sound.

Gerald, who was certain of his super-fast attack, froze, exclaiming in astonishment.

Chapter 259 End and Beginning

Gerald thought his super-fast attack would definitely hurt Li Xiaoxi, but why did it happen?

"Your speed is fast, but as long as you are within this space, you can only be controlled by me. Whether it's your speed, magic power, or magic, it's all under my control now. You have already lost!" Li Xiaoxi said calmly.

"I don't believe it!" But as soon as Gerald finished speaking, he was forcefully pressed to the ground by a powerful pressure.

"What did you do?" Gerald, pinned to the ground, glared angrily at Li Xiaoxi.

"I've already said it, this space is now under my control, everything about you is under my control, you've lost!" Li Xiaoxi repeated this sentence again. "However, your final fate is not up to me, let Erza decide your future!"

"Xiao hope, I..." Erza opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Alright, now his fate is in your hands. Whether he lives or dies is up to you!"

Natsu, Gray, and Simon all looked at Erza, and finally Erza made her own decision.

------------

On the way back, Lucy asked, "Erza, why did you hand Jellal over to the council?"

"I really can't bring myself to do it to him. Perhaps the Council's prison is the best place for him. Oh, and thank you all for this time, Xiao hope, Mirajane, and everyone else!"

"Erza, don't say thank you. Have you forgotten that we are all members of Fairy Tail?" Li Xiaoxi said with a smile.

“Xiao Xi is right. We are all members of Fairy Tail. Isn’t it only natural for our comrades to help each other?” Natsu followed up from Li Xiao Xi.

After hearing what Li Xiaoxi and Natsu said, Erza's eyes slowly welled up with tears.

"Natsu, did you do something to upset Erza again?!"

"I... I didn't!" Natsu said innocently.

"No, I just feel so happy that I can come back to Fairy Tail," Erza said with a happy smile through her tears.

"By the way, are it really okay for your childhood friends to just leave like this? Couldn't they come to Fairy Tail?"

"This is their own decision, and they have to walk their own path in the future," Erza said, looking in the direction Simon and the others had left.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed since Hugh, Simon, Woolley, and Miriam Anna left.

In a leisurely state, Li Xiaoxi and her group traveled at a leisurely pace, and it was three days later that they returned to Fairy Tail, which had been completely rebuilt and was now like a castle.

"Ahhhh!" Everyone stared wide-eyed at the newly established guild, letting out exclamations of amazement.

"That's really outrageous..." Erza exclaimed;

"Is it finished yet?" Lucy asked.

Upon entering the guild, the first thing you see is an open-air café where many people are chatting and drinking coffee. There's also a small shop nearby.

"Something feels off," Natsu said in a low voice, his arms crossed over his chest and his brow furrowed.

“Welcome, it’s you guys, welcome back,” Max said from behind the counter in the convenience store.

"Ah~~~ Max's a boss now! It's been so long!" Happy flew up to Max and said.

Li Xiaoxi and the others caught up from behind and greeted Max, "Long time no see, Max!"

Max scratched his cheek sheepishly and said, "I went to train in business under the chairman's orders."

Lucy suddenly appeared out of nowhere and said, "Max Arose? The one who was featured in the magic weekly?"

"Please take care of me again, I heard, Lucy."

"I can't even imagine it, and I don't want to know what you've heard," Lucy said, immediately deflated.

"Hey Max, what kind of stuff do you have?" Li Xiaoxi said from the side.

“Hehe, T-shirts and wristbands, teacups and towels, and the best-selling item is…” “Lucy figurines,” Happy said, holding up a small Lucy figurine. “Don’t just make those kinds of things,” Lucy said from the side.

“Of course you can take them off,” Max said. As soon as he finished speaking, all of Lucy’s clothes fell off, leaving her only naked. “Ahhhhh!” Lucy screamed upon seeing this.

"Alright, stop fooling around and go inside," Erza's authoritative voice rang out. After Li Xiaoxi and the others entered the hall...

"It's so beautiful!" Lucy and Happy exclaimed, looking at the newly built guild hall.

Erza nodded and said, "Yeah, very good." Gray also nodded, then noticed that Natsu, who usually shouted and yelled as soon as he returned to the guild, was actually quiet. He asked with some surprise, "What's wrong, Natsu?"

“It’s different from before,” Natsu said, still burying his head in his scarf and frowning.

"Welcome back, everyone!" Rebi shouted to Li Xiaoxi and the others.

"We're back," Li Xiaoxi and the others responded.

Rebi said to Lucy and the others, "Isn't that amazing? There's a swimming pool in the bar." "Why a swimming pool?" Lucy retorted.

Natsu is still the same as when he first joined the guild, "different from before."

"There's even an amusement park underground!" "Did they go overboard?" "It's different from before."

"The biggest change is on the second floor; now anyone can go up to the second floor!"

"Hey, I'm on the second floor too! Waaah, I'm finally up to the second floor! I'm so touched~~~" Elfman greeted Li Xiaoxi, then started crying to himself. Li Xiaoxi quickly turned her head away, pretending not to know him.

“Of course, an S-rank mission requires an S-rank mage to accompany it,” Rebi continued.

Suddenly, Makarov's voice rang out, "You're back, you rascals." Turning around, he saw a person standing next to Makarov.

Makarov continued, "This is our guild's newest member, Juvia, isn't she adorable?"

"Please guide me," Juvia said.

Gray looked at Juvia and said, "You actually came." "Thanks for your help in Akane."
