Chapter 3040

The girl stomped her feet, pouted, and followed Philip out of this place. Soon, Philip returned to First

Palace with the girl and the turtle shell.

When the girl saw Philip’s luxurious house, she kept running around the villa in awe.

Martha scowled when she saw Philip returning with a young girl of 17 or 18 years old but dared not say

anything.

Philip was still such a playboy, flirting with a young girl.

What did he take Wynn for? Speaking of which, where was Wynn?

“Philip, why isn’t Wynn back with you? She has been away for a while. Where did she go?” Martha

walked over with tea and asked with a smile.

“Aunt, thanks,” the girl said sweetly.

Philip frowned, thought about it, and explained, “Wynnie is dealing with something and won’t be back

so soon.”

Hearing this, Martha pursed her lips, turned around, and left.

Philip glanced at the girl who was sitting on the sofa with her two legs dangling. The Beelzebub lay

quietly beside her as if it was tired.

“Tell me who you are and what’s going on with this little Beelzebub. Why is the Heavenly Court after

you?” Philip asked coldly.

The girl rolled her eyes and said, “Big Brother, I’m not a bad person. I’m the guardian maiden, and I

come from the stargate. The grandfathers told me that my duty is to guard the stargate. Blackie was

raised in the stargate and ran away with me. The Heavenly Court wants to capture Blackie for

research. I’m telling the truth.”

Seeing the sincerity in the girl’s eyes, Philip frowned and asked, “You said you’re a guardian of the

stargate?”

The girl nodded vigorously and said, “This is the duty of the guardian maiden. Each guardian maiden

must guard the stargate for five years. Due to our special constitution, we have a natural affinity to the

stargate and can know what happens inside the stargate. Moreover, our physique can greatly suppress

the stargate, but…”

At this point, the girl’s face dimmed as she said with tears in her eyes, “The stargate is too powerful

and will exhaust the guardian maiden’s special physique. In the end, every guardian maiden will die

due to the loss of physical functions. So, I want to take advantage of the present and come out to look

at the world.”

The girl smiled excitedly and said, “I saw a lot of interesting things along the way as well as many

interesting people.”

Seeing the girl’s changing moods between sadness and excitement, Philip fell silent.

A young girl in her late teens had to take on the important task of guarding the stargate, which would

eventually lead to her demise.

Philip sighed helplessly. Maybe he had more reasons to go to Cochly Mountain to seek answers now.

Then, he looked at Blackie and said, “Are you sure that it’s a Beelzebub from the other shore?”

The girl nodded and said, “Yes, Blackie is very kind, and we’ve been raising it. It helps us guard the

stargate too.”

However, Philip scowled and said, “If I remember correctly, Beelzebub is a beast from the other side.

They almost destroyed the foundation and civilization of our human race. Why are you raising such a

beast?”

The girl had expected that Philip would say this and said, “You’ve misunderstood. Blackie didn’t do

those things. It’s different from those Beelzebubs. It’s very kind and has always been with me. Please

don’t hurt it.”

The girl’s eyes were full of tears. Blackie also sensed something and suddenly sat up. It stared at Philip

with a pair of black eyes and growled.

Philip stared at Blackie’s black eyes, and his face darkened. After looking at it for a long time, he said,

“It shouldn’t appear in the secular world. You’ll only cause more trouble by bringing it out, so I must

send you back to Cochly Mountain as soon as possible. I need to go there as well, so you can go with

me.”

Hearing this, the girl’s face darkened as she asked, “Do I have to go back? I still want to explore the

outside world.”
