This is the Tear of the Demon!
Fu Lingxi found the Tear of the Demon before anyone else, and with it, one could find the World-Ending Demon Emperor.
By securing the Tear of the Demon, Fu Lingxi had indeed accomplished a great feat. What did she have to fear at this point? What did Suo Lun count for?
Thus, Fu Lingxi chose to return the baby to Zhi Ning, completely turning against Suo Lun, drawing a clear line of separation.
Poluo Sha said, "You found the Tear of the Demon, why didn't you submit it at that time?"
Fu Lingxi replied, "Because I wanted to hand it over to you personally, yet I never had the chance."
No, Fu Lingxi was lying.
The Tear of the Demon was her biggest bargaining chip, and naturally, Fu Lingxi wanted to maximize her gains!
Just as a player in the card game 'Landlord' who gets the 'joker bomb' along with other good cards, would not just want to win but to 'bomb' multiple times and increase the base score by several multiples.
