Chapter Sixteen

-The Change


Unknown Pov


It is said that danger always lurks in the dark and it's always waiting to snatch or attach itself to something to possess it, the wand to the forbidden demon had broken the minute her blood touched the ground she was bleeding so much it was a miracle that she was still able to walk.


There was no more life in her, her body was tired and she was bleeding to death but what startled me the most was how peaceful and at ease she was, she collapsed at the foot of the demon cave where all the demonic energy is kept. Although she was there, the energy didn't attack her or try to attach itself to her but it rather surrounded her, covering her like a soft blanket.


I took slow steps towards the still body, she had fallen face flat and when I turned her around my heart stilled. I have never seen someone so beautiful, not in the many years I have lived, her face was smeared with dirt and the flowing blood from her head.


I wondered what happened to her, who could hurt someone beautiful and good like her. I picked her and cleaned her wounds and tried stopping the bleeding from her head, the demonic energy was still around her but in a non harmful way.


Her red flower kept flickering and it soon solidified but it was no longer red but rather a black colour, her skin was paler and it was ice cold, her light brown hair was now jet black.
I was watching as all her wounds closed up and all the marks and scars disappear, her eyes opened and I was met with black and grey eyes. "Wan Xue." She whispered softly, her eyes were searching my face. "Where am I?" Her voice was musical, soft but dark. "Miss you fell into the forbidden demon land." She looked around the cave, she sat up and looked around. "Why are you here?" She asked again softly. "I live here." She hummed then she stood up, the dark energy from the cave surrounded her and clinged to her, circling her when it disappeared her peach robe was now a black and red colour.


She smiled and then she touched the walls of the cave, I didn't understand what she was doing until I realized she was sucking up the energy in the cave, the more energy she consumed the darker her phoenix flower become. She walked outside and started absorbing the energy outside, when she was done her flower had completely disappeared. "Wan Xue." She whispered again. "How do you know my name?" I asked softly and she smiled at me. "The king whispered it to me." I stared at her blankly and her smile widened. "My name is Bai Fengjiu, the Princess of Qingqiu." My mouth was hanging. "B...b..bu...you..you..." She laughed it was like the birds were singing. "Open this part of the land, were going to need to make it lively here. No offence but if it's just us two it will get a little boring, I need to go somewhere now I'll be back." She said it as a promise as she lifted herself up and left.


Jui're


I went to the Ice realm and to my surprise Fangsu was still there, when she saw me she looked startled. "What happened to you?" She almost screamed. "Nothing just a little makeover, why are you still here?" She looked taken aback. "I thought you might need help." I shook my head. "I don't need help, I am fine you can go back to heaven." She frowned and for some reason I was getting annoyed. "XiaoJiu about my..." I lifted up my finger. "I don't want to hear it, if you want to speak about your brother rather don't say anything, I don't have the tolerance." She took a step towards me and I took a step back. "What happened to your phoenix flower?" Her voice was above a whisper. "I sealed it." I answered curtly. "XiaoBai..." At hearing that name I felt my heart frost. "Call me Fengjiu." She looked at with disbelief. "What happened to you?" She asked and I smiled. "Something good." I turned my back on her. "When I get back please be gone." I left quietly.


Fangsu


I was scared, XiaoBai didn't seem like herself and what scared me more than anything was that it was because of Dong Hua, I think all of this is because of him. She was wearing a black and red robe, when has she ever worn black in her life!! The way her eyes slit up at the mention of Dong Hua had my soul shaking.


I cloud jumped to heaven and Dong Hua was pacing alongside Wang Shu. "Have you seen XiaoBai!" He asked as soon as he saw me. "What did you do to her!!? What did you do to XiaoJiu!!?" He looked exasperated. "Is she okay!!?" He shook me roughly. "She's more than okay!" I yelled out in annoyance. "Did you nurse her wounds?? Is she asleep? Where is she?" The panic was eating away at him. "What wounds are you talking about? She's perfectly fine in fact she hates your guts, she doesn't even want to hear your name." Wang Shu looked at me as if I was crazy. "That's impossible, she was bleeding to death."  Before I could answer she appeared, Wang Shu gasped. "XiaoBai.." Wang Shu said softly and she pinned her with a cold stare. "My name is Fengjiu not XiaoBai." Then she passed us as she saw Ah Lam, she summoned her and she held her by her neck. "Did you really think I would let you get away with hurting me?" She traced her face with her other finger. "See I don't like bullies, so I will take away your powers and turn you to a wild animal." She laughed like a maniac. "Your father will be bowing to me soon." Then she started absorbing her magical power and she screamed in pain. "XiaoBai!!" Dong Hua yelled and she turned and looked at him and her eyes were jet black when she was done she looked at her. "No I won't turn to a wild animals but I will take apart of you every time you do bad, hope your father comes to me soon I am not very patient these days." She turned and looked at Dong Hua and she bowed her head and she disappeared before he could say anything.
