Boom!
The cold storm swept past Helian Wei Wei's forehead.
The Holy Light of Buddha was sufficient to inhibit Helian Wei Wei's action.
This time, Phoenix would never be able to escape!
Suddenly, Helian Wei Wei opened her eyes. It caught that woman by surprise as the cold wind began spiraling inward like a cyclone as if it was adhering to Helian Wei Wei's command.
Many people said that the Phoenix bathed in fire.
However, only a few of them had witnessed it.
Hot air emitted from Phoenix, deterring anyone who dared to go near it.
Glaciers collapsed one after another behind Helian Wei Wei. Her hand was still holding onto the Phoenix Bone Scythe. As the crackles went off, her whole body was glowing in a layer of flame. The fires resembled ancient totems, weaving a sea of boiling blood and fire-like Phoenix wings behind her.
The woman from Tian Dao was stupefied as she witnessed this scene and cried in disbelief, “Impossible! You are not as strong as before, how could you…”
Helian Wei Wei did not reply to her. She removed the silver needle that was piercing her flesh calmly. Fresh blood oozed out from the back of her hand and it stained her windbreaker.
Phoenix's wings turned into fireworks in the air, soaring into the sky. Miniature snowflakes condensed to form ice crystals that filled the sky. The ice crystals reflected light which shone onto Helian Wei Wei's cold face. Her pupils emitted a clear and holy light, which seemed like it could eliminate anything in front of her!
The woman wanted to escape, but she realized her legs were immobilized. The fire was spreading from her heels up to her body. In just a few moments, a loud, deafening shriek reverberated across the atmosphere!
Phoenix's purity could burn everything.
Both the Buddhists and Tian Dao knew that the odds would not be in their favor if they continued fighting. Instead, they decided to scout the surroundings and plan for their next attack in two days.
Hoh Xil, which was surrounded by snow mountains, turned into ruins after the war.
When Baili Jia Jue lifted his head, he saw Helian Wei Wei standing in front of him. Her body was decorated with scars. As she looked at him, a smile crept onto her face as she spoke, “I'm back.”
She pa.s.sed out thereafter.
Baili Jia Jue was confused. He did not know why he felt compelled to protect her. He felt as if every wound and scar on her body were stinging his eyes.
She whispered to his ear, “I'm okay. I'm just exhausted. I just need some rest to recover.”
Baili Jia Jue tightened his grasp on her hand. His eyes became as gloomy as the storm.
Having regained some strength, Helian Wei Wei wrapped her arms around his waist as she said hoa.r.s.ely, “I have never thought of imprisoning you.”
Baili Jia Jue remained silent. His frustration irritated him to no end.
“But she's right, I'm the reason why you've ended up like this. Should I still stay by your side?” Helian Wei Wei lowered her head onto Baili Jia Jue's chest and fell asleep.
The fight, coupled with alt.i.tude sickness, had completely depleted her strength.
As mentioned by some of the holy monks, Phoenix would eventually sacrifice her vitality in order to protect Baili Jia Jue.
Silence reigned in the tent.
A gush of cold air began to invade from every direction.
Without a word, Baili Jia Jue placed Helian Wei Wei into a coffin and strolled out of the tent.
The black boots creaked crisply as it touched the ground.
When the fairy who was burned to death saw Baili Jia Jue's figure from a distance, her eyes brightened up abruptly. “Emperor…”
Rip!
A huge ice flower that resembled snow crystals bloomed from the fairy's chest. The sharp and st.u.r.dy petals were stunning. In its perfect beauty, it pierced through flesh and blood!
Vines that were as white as crystals penetrated upward rapidly from the sole of her feet, to her calf, and to the insides of her thigh. Blood oozed out of her throat. She had no idea why the man attacked her.
However, Baili Jia Jue narrowed his cold, bloodshot eyes. His eyes were so cold that diamonds would have broken out of the ground.
“Do you think you are worthy of helping my soul?” He asked.
A deafening thud resounded in the air!
The two people from Tian Dao were struck down. Fresh blood flowed onto the ground.
Baili Jia Jue stood there, his black robe drifting in the wind, just like the billowing black smoke in the air, enveloping his slender and powerful body.
It turned out that although sunlight could hurt him, its effect was weakening.
It was obvious that his demonic nature had started to suppress his spirituality.
The situation was graver than they had expected. Both the G.o.d and Buddhist people thought that they could use this opportunity to eradicate Baili Jia Jue, but now, they have realized that no one could stop him.
His demonization had reached its final stage…
After defeating those people outside, Baili Jia Jue returned to the tent again.
He looked into the coffin at the injured Helian Wei Wei. Her gaze was flickering with uncertainties as his fingers ran through her hair unconsciously.
“St*pid,” he sneered.
If someone else was in her position, that person would have used the opportunity to run away, but she chose to stay to be his shield.
This woman definitely has no IQ.
Baili Jia Jue lowered his gaze while he carried her into his arms and mumbled, ” Who else would be qualified to stay by my side if not you? As a Master, how could you not be confident?”
Helian Wei Wei did not hear his words. She was in a deep sleep, even more so when she found the right position.
“St*pid,” Baili Jia Jue muttered under his breath and patted her back with one hand.
The demons hidden in the dark were clueless as to why the darkness in their King's body was suppressed again.
However, they were very certain that this was only temporary.
When the time approached, their King would devour mankind.
This was indeed the case because, at the next moment, Baili Jia Jue was plotting on how to devour humans.
When Helian Wei Wei regained consciousness, she heard him coaxing softly next to her ear. This was the charming point of a demon: when people let their guards down, they would reveal the greatest secret buried in their hearts.
She looked at him as she said wearily, “There are five and a half days left. It will be over before you know it. Do not take advantage of the moment when I let my guards down to attack me. I can still help you deal with those monks.”
“You may be a little useful, but my Master, aren't you overestimating yourself?” Baili Jia Jue stretched his hand out to pinch her chin. “Tell me your wish now. I can deal with the Buddhist myself. You collapsed as a result of being too exhausted dealing with a few of them. Given your current state, how can you help me? How about I set you free, my dearest Master? There are many people who think that it's a pleasure to be devoured by a demon. However, in reality, if it were you, I would be gentle. After all, you're a delicacy.”
Helian Wei Wei coughed lightly and felt her head aching. She did not reply to Baili Jia Jue, but hugged him and buried her head in his arms.
Just when she chose to use her spiritual aura to balance his power out, she had already expected such an outcome.
She wanted to tell him that soon…very soon he would recover to his former invincible self…
