Part One

XiaoBai

Lately I have been feeling restless, my thoughts were everywhere and my mind wasn't steady.
I feel stronger than I have ever felt but my heart feels heavy and weak, there has been a couple of things happening in heaven there has been endless wars and I barely got to see my husband, maybe that's why I feel so anxious and scared.

I peek through the door wondering if is he going to come back alive or injured, apart of me has faith that he wouldn't leave me not again，although many years have passed but the memory of his death is always fresh in my mind like the sun.

Lost in thought I don't see the weather changing, it was always sunny in heaven and normally when the weather changed something would happen, but I was so lost in thought that when I felt a tap on my shoulder I jumped. "Did I scare you? I'm sorry." I heard the voice of the person I haven't heard in a while. "What do you want Wan Xue?" I asked as I looked at him. "I want to apologize for everything." He said and I snorted. "It's a little too late for that don't you think? Besides you chose to help your brother." He tried to grab my hand but I took a step back. "I love you! I have always loved you but you were going to pick him over everything else!! You were going to give your heart to him and I wouldn't have stood a chance." He said exasperated. "That's no excuse to hurt the person you claim you love!!! Yes you're right I would have chosen him over everything but that doesn't give you a right to ruin my life, my happiness. Did you seriously think that I could love you if you killed him or took him away from me?" I asked and he frowned. "You're selfish!" He snapped. "How!? How am I the selfish one!? The only other reason why you even feel something for me is the fact that I remind you of your wife!! The same wife who killed herself at the hands of your brother because of you! I trusted you! So much, I can't believe that I even thought you and Yang Yang were the same!!!" He pushed me against the wall and chocked me. "Isn't he the same guy who got killed because of you!! Huh, you just want all the love to yourself stringing everyone along with you!!" He yelled, I put up my shield that threw him off me and to the other side of the wall. "At least I don't deny the fact that I loved him!! Is that what you wanted to know? If did I ever have love in my heart for him? You're the person I don't have love for!! You pretended to be all self righteous but you're nothing but a reflection of your brother covered in sheep skin, at least your brother owns up to the fact that he's evil." He laughed. "Do you know what dear brother has in store for you? You will wish you never insulted his daughter." He smirked as he stood up. "You still underestimate me, you don't know who I am." I said softly. "You don't have love but an obsession, an obsession to have what you can't have." I put down my shield. "Just cause you have lived this long doesn't mean I don't have the guts to kill you, I am just not a murderer." I turned my back on him and went back to the palace, I felt exhausted and like I could take a long nap.

I tried to stay up so I could wait for my husband but I couldn't keep my eyes open for long, I fell into a deep chaotic slumber.
When I woke up I was still by myself, I checked around the palace to see if my husband had come back but there was no sign of me.
I went to look for him outside but he wasn't there so I went to the imperial hall, heavenly father looked panicked along with Fangsu. "Jui're." Heavenly father whispered my name and Fangsu turned to my direction. "Heavenly father, where is Dijiun." He looked at me for the longest time without saying anything. "He's dead because of you!!" Fangsu said and I felt cold immediately, my thoughts came to a stand still and my heart rate slowed to an irregular pace. "Jui're." I don't even when heavenly father got to me as he shook me. "Don't listen to her!! She doesn't know what she's talking about! It's just that Dijiun hasn't come back from war and he shouldn't have been back by now." After hearing that it was like life had been breathed into me. "I'll search for him." Heavenly father was about to protest when he walked in. "Brother." Fangsu said but he was looking at me. "Who touched you." There was a murderous look on his face. "Dijiun." Heavenly father called for his attention but he pinned him with a cold stare. "Who touched you?" He asked in a low threatening voice. "Husband I haven't seen in a while and this is how you greet your wife? Didn't you miss me?" Fangsu snorted. "XiaoBai I didn't leave you with angry bruises on your neck, so who touched you?" Darn it! In my worrisome state I had forgotten to cover up my neck, and I knew that he wouldn't let it go. Then Fangsu did something that made him so angry that he threw her off and she slit her arm, she came and put her hands around him and laid her head on his back. "Move." He said in a low threatening voice but she held on tightly. "I am not letting go of you, I have been here for you the longest yet you chose her! She doesn't even deserve you!!!" He threw her off him but he used too much now she was staring at him wide eyed. "I want her gone." He looked at heavenly father. "Dijiun calm down." I whispered softly but he wasn't having it. "The only answer I expect from you is who laid their hands on you." Then he focused his attention back to heavenly father. "I have been patient enough for her, I want her gone whatever debt that had me tied to her is complete there is no need for her to be here, you can send her to the storm clan she will become a Princess there." Then he grabbed my hand and pulled me back to the palace, before he could pester me again about this I kissed him and his tension and anger melted under the kiss. "I missed you." Before he could say anything I pulled him in for another kiss. "I know what you're doing." He whispered against my lips. "Why won't you tell me?" I sighed. "I'm afraid you will take the life of the person who did this." He frowned but decided to let it go. "We should go to Qingqiu, I'm sure my parents think that I have abandoned them." He smiled sweetly at me. "I agree with that, I think that you will have to go first I have things I still need to sort out plus I need  to refine the Purple Sea's energy, a guard will escort you after I'm finished at the Purple Sea." He said sweetly. "Do I really need to be escorted?" I whined and he chuckled. "Of course you do." I snarled at him but he gave me a throaty laugh.

I spent the half of the day with my husband making up for all the times he wasn't here, but he had to go so I decided to go to Qingqiu and as he had said I was escorted by two guards and were cloud jumping.

When we were still in the sky multiple of arrows came charging at us, and bandits dressed in black came out and started attacking us, we fought them off then a thick white fog fell upon me and I lost consciousness.
When I came too, I was at the forbidden realm. "Missed me?" Kai said softly. "Aren't you tired of doing this?" I asked softly and he shook his head. "Not till I get what I want XiaoBai." He said wickedly. "What do you want?" I asked softly. "You." He said softly twirling a knife between his fingers. "Why can't I touch you? I managed to tie you up but I can't touch you." I looked at him like he had grew horns out of his head. "That's cause you have a death wish." He chuckled. " You have a smart mouth don't you? No wonder my brother is smitten with you it's such a pity I saw you first." He stalked towards me and he stood in front of me and when he tried to touch me I heard a sizzling and he looked like he was in pain and he took a step back. "Looks like I will have to find another way." He muttered to himself. "Still haven't figured it out?" Wang Shu asked as she came towards me. "Of course he hasn't, she has Dong Hua's essence and spiritual power." Wan Xue said while twirling the silver knife in his hand. "He's protecting her and if you want to touch her you have to dig it out." My eyes widened and Kai smirked at me. "How will we do it if we can't touch her." Wang Shu asked then Wan Xue smiled. "It's simple really." Then he threw the Silver knife at me and it pierced through my shoulder, I didn't scream because I didn't want to give them the satisfaction. The demon silver knife was used to temporarily disabled the spiritual powers of an immortal as punishment, it technically didn't belong to them but they had.

I felt my spiritual power died down but as soon as that happened I started feeling a warm and burning sensation, which over powered the knife that was in my shoulder I started screaming in pain and they laughed thinking that I was screaming because of the knife. Kai was literally in front of me in a split second and he grabbed my face. "Soft skin." He murmured and then he kissed me roughly and he pulled at my lower lip and I bit him, then he smacked me so hard. "Play nice." He pulled my hair. "Pull it out." Kai said looking at Wan Xue who stalked towards me, Kai handed him the knife he was carrying. "Hurry up!" He barked at him, Wan Xue walked around to my backside. "Sorry but I can't let you keep your spiritual power." He cut up my robe and stripped me off it and without warning he plunged the knife in my lower back where my spiritual power should be and this time I couldn't stand the pain I screamed out loud, I felt the warm liquid oozing down my back but Kai was looking behind me and frowning. "It's not there." He said under his breath, Kai put his hands around my throat. "What happened to your spiritual power?" He asked and I shook my head. "I-I-I don't know." He choked me some more then he released me and I coughed out. "Look at her skin." Wan Xue said tracing it with the tip of the knife. "Wang Shu doesn't even come close to such beauty." Kai said in an appreciative tone. "Close your eyes, I'm coming don't be scared." I heard a chilled voice but with enough warmth. "I'm scared to close my eyes." I whimpered and I felt a blow against my stomach. "WHY DOES EVERYONE WANT YOU!!" Wang Shu screamed at me. "XiaoBai I need you to close your eyes." The burning sensation was intensifying now and I screamed again. "I am burning! I'm burning! I'm burning!" I screamed. "It's the essence XiaoBai, it's trying to find a way to protect you. Close your eyes it will ease the pain, I love you." As soon as the voice went quiet I closed my eyes and my world went dark.

Wan Xue

I didn't want to do this, I didn't want to hurt her but Kai was going to kill her if I didn't do what he wanted, I know that in her heart she hates me now but I will make this right.

I watched her as she slipped to unconscious, her body turned pale. "We probably should heal her." I said softly but Kai shook his head. "No I want Dijiun to find her bleeding like this, in fact her body is calling to me." I stood in front of her naked body. "No! You will kill her!" I yelled and he laughed. "It's a little too late for you to redeem yourself in her eyes, are you going to play hero now." He teased. "I just want a taste and nothing else." He pushed me to the side, he looked like a preditor ready to pounce on his prey. He tried waking her but she was not responsive. "Ahh how disappointing you don't want me to see your pleasure." He caressed her body, touching her skin everywhere. "So delicate." He whispered, he stripped down and untied from her chains. "That's okay though, this is only for my pleasure." He kissed her face, kissed her neck when he was about to kiss her breasts, her body started sparkling with purple seams that made her body look like it was made with purple diamond, and a red protective sphere protected her body blowing Kai away. He smashed his back again the wall and the sphere stayed, Kai being stubborn tried but he got zapped and just then a purple angry light blazed across the demon realm and it instantly killed Wang Shu, then I realized it was Dong Hua's sword when I came to focus he was standing in front of the sphere, although there was nothing on his face there was a deadly aura on him that had me rooted in fear where I was.
