Chapter Twenty Three

XiaoJiu


As the day pass my new love grows afresh and my heart grows fonder, Dijiun is my lover and nothing is going to take that away.
When I woke up I noticed the ring on my finger on the form of my feather phoenix flower, I didn't say anything because I had my own suprise.


Dong Hua this life is ours  even if we don't stay together, you are the love of my life. I won't condemn you for not staying with me because I can see it in you, your love is in the ring I am wearing right now as everything is not perfect alone but perfect with its give mate and I am perfect with you and you are perfect with me.


Dijiun looked so tired I know that he removed the dark energy because I couldn't feel it anymore, even though he was tired he watched over me until I woke up, even now I could tell that he wasn't asleep. "Dijiun that's not called sleeping, why are you awake?" He stirred and opened his eyes. "I am worried about you XiaoBai." I sighed. "Dijiun what could possibly happen to me in our own home? There's a protective wand around this place and if something is wrong I would call you, wouldn't I?" He grabbed my hand and kissed it. "XiaoBai..." I lifted my hand up. " Dijiun you need to sleep, I would put you to sleep using magic if I actually knew how and paid attention in class, so please do this willingly and don't be stubborn." He sighed. "Fine." I waited to see if he was really awake and his body relaxed and he was breathing evenly. "You don't have to be Dijiun all the time, sometimes you just need to be yourself Dong Hua."  I walked around The Purple Sea, it was really beautiful this place put heaven to shame even Qingqiu's beauty didn't compare to this.


Dijiun has accomplished so much in his life and although he had lived so long he was deprived of love, a sweet child that didn't have parents and grew up alone, my heart feels heavy. I looked at the ring he gave me and suddenly an idea came into mind, I know that he will scold me for this later but at least he won't be able to stop me. I went to the cave at the back of the glass palace, I gasped when I entered inside it looked nothing like my fox cave, there was Foling flowers falling everywhere, some floating with the help of Dijiun's divine energy the inside of the cave walls looked watery, the whole cave looked like water. This was perfect I could do this here, I summoned a small cup and a dagger then the silver jade  and a glass piece.


What I was going to do was going to hurt but this is something I wanted to do for Dijiun, I took the small cup and the dagger I plunged the dagger in my heart and collected the blood from my heart, when it was enough I healed myself and then I added the foling flowers into the blood and melted the silver jade and added it inside the mixture and mixed it together then I took the piece glass and made it round then I dropped it inside the mixture, the glass absorbed everything and my blood coated everything, the ring came out purple with specks of red. On the inside I wrote his name and my name, when it was ready I went back out to Dijiun.
He was still asleep so I slipped the ring on his finger, I tried getting up but I felt lightheaded. "Dijiun." I said I tried getting up again but I fell and before I could hit the ground he held me. "XiaoBai." He said a gentle sweet voice. "Dijiun I don't feel so good." He put his hand on my face and by my neck and my wrist. "XiaoBai why are you weak  suddenly?" He asked softly and then I knew this was the time I will get scolded, he looked at with so much love there were even worry lines on his face. "Dijiun the symbol of your love on my finger needed another symbol of my love on yours, we might not be married officially but I will never take this ring off and I will always keep your heart safe, even if I had to suffer a hundred more times just to be with you I would endure and go through it, as long as you know that I Bai Fengjiu love you so much and I love you more than anything in this world." Tears were falling down from his face, he was silent staring at the ring on his finger. He laid me down on the bed gently without saying a word. "Lift up your hands." He whispered and I complied he undid my robe and he covered my breasts. "Dijiun what are you doing?" He laid his hand where my heart is and I winced. " You didn't heal yourself properly." He said softly, he healed in the proper way this time and then he sat me up. He made a small cut in his hand. "Open your mouth." I opened my mouth and blood droplets went inside.   "Dijiun are you mad at me?" He caressed my face. "I am not XiaoBai." I frowned then why are you so quiet. "For saving you once you have saved me more than I can count, for loving me you have suffered pain and got your heart broken more than it should have, something's were due to misunderstanding but still you shouldn't have suffered. XiaoBai I am just a man who lived in the world and desired nothing, so many people came by in my life and left. Just like every other Princess has been at the palace, they left after seeing that there's no progress then I met you.  When I met you, you were still very young you were playing with your Uncle's bird trying to get it's feathers off you were giggling until that earth monster scared and you took off running, over the years I always wondered how much you have grown and I wondered whether I would get to see you again." He sighed. "Your father came to heaven a lot to get punishment tools for you, because you were very naughty but every time he came by I would convince him not to hit you. I met you again at the snake pit though you were terrified out of your mind, I felt very at ease and alive that I got to see you again and unexpectedly you took an arrow for me, I didn't understand why you did that and I couldn't understand how could you do that. It was the first time I met a goddess who didn't hide behind me but rather protected me, even though I didn't want to you to leave; I couldn't ask you to stay either but unexpectedly you followed me and later you came to my palace as a fairy." He shuddered. "You were now close to me and I couldn't will myself to stay away from you, so throughout the day I would follow you around and at night I would watch over you, even when you were angry at me you still cared about me then I realized you liked me and I could see that you did but again it was different, others tried so hard for me to see it yet you just didn't I only could see it in your eyes." He caressed my face. "XiaoBai you suffered hell just for me and sometimes I get scared that I will lose you, because you're always trying to save me, you're always trying to do something for me. XiaoBai I need you to understand something, back then I might have not realized that I loved you or realized that I was falling for you but I always cared about you very much, XiaoBai you don't want anything from me but just for me to love you, how could that be enough?" There were so many emotions on his face that I didn't know what to say. "XiaoBai you are my life." I closed my eyes. "Dijiun said I'm his life." I thought while feeling giddy. "I will never put anyone above you, you are the spirit that lives in me and I will take care of your heart and I will keep it closer to my heart all the time but no more hurting yourself for my sake XiaoBai." He leaned down and then he kissed me softly. "I will stay with you forever." He whispered softly and he continued kissing me.


Wan Xue


Fengjiu is gone and I haven't repaid my debt to her although it wasn't ideal I loved having her here, she smart, mischievous and beautiful the forbidden realm has been quiet without her.


I like her I mean who wouldn't like her it's just a pity that she sees nobody but Dijiun and because she saved me I can't do anything to make her unhappy, I just hope that she will come visit me or allowed to come to the forbidden realm.
As I have was drowning myself in thoughts someone tried to break the wand but it blew them away, I went to check who it was and it was goddess Wang Shu. I opened the wand and stepped up to help her. "I didn't realize you have a wand here." She said softly. "XiaoJiu put it up, she didn't want Kai to  have access." She snorted. "How thoughtful of her." She said sarcastically. "What can I do for you?" I asked softly. "I want to strike a deal with you." She smiled. "You like Bai Fengjiu and I love Dong Hua, help me separate them." She smiled and I laughed. "I don't see anything funny." She fumed. "What made you think that I would agree to that? What could you do that will make them separate? Don't you know that Dong Hua and XiaoJiu are married now and they are at The Purple Sea?" She shook her head. "No you're lying!!! That's impossible."  I laughed. "Even you tried your best Fengjiu will never give up on him, and he will surely kill anyone who would try to mess with the one he loves, leave me out of this." She fumed and she left and something told me that she wasn't about to give up.
