Chapter 355 - Gift and Tears (1/2)

'I met Vita.' Davita said as she looked at Ariana. ”Your world's creator?” Ariana asked as she brushed back her tears. 'Yes. She was beautiful and kind. Her body was made of pure white jade while her mane and claws were an emerald green and her eyes sparkled like black opals. She pitied me and how I died. She opened a portal in her relam so I coud wach what was happening down in the relam of the living.' Davita explained.

”Is that why you can smile?” Ariana asked. Davita shook her head no. 'It was a blood bath. Princess Momo told Bai that the meat he was eating was actually me while her father ate his two comrades. Bai turned savage he couldn't hold his emotions in check, neither could Dequan. I never knew how strong a vice commander was or how strong Bai was either, he was always so gentle. Bai grabbed his steak knife and slit the King's throat. Dequan was able to find swords and bewteen the two of them they took every single threat down.' Davita continued.

”What happened to princess Momo?” Ariana asked. 'Princess Momo was saved for last. Bai hated her for what she did. He skinned her alive and tied her body to beam in the market. It allowed the smaller clans to attack and eat her flesh. I never knew how barbaric Bai was but at the same time my love for him only grew.' Davita replied.

”So what brought you peace? It was a horrible death. Your love was traumatized and so many others died brutally.” Ariana said as she stared at Davita. 'My love lived out his days in peace. He took over the Kingdom and never remarried. Instead he took care of our son and daughter.....'

”Child of the pearl snakes does ths please you?” Vita asked as she looked at Xue.

Xue looked into the portal with remorse. She didn't want to see Bai in so much pain. ”No this could never appease my soul.” Xue said as tear spilled from her eyes. ”My dear child please tell me how can I appease your soul. I do not want to see you so sad before you pass onto the other plane.” Vita said softly as her green mane gently moved in the windless realm.

”I never asked for much when I as alive. I know I was never destined to be happy or live for a long time but after meeting Bai... I became greedy. I want to live with Bai until we both grow old. I wanted to start a family with Bai and raise my children with love. I wanted to enjoy my life with Bai at my side and now I can never do that. I couldn't even protect the possible child I may have concieved. Vita is there anyway you can bring me back to life? Can I live with Bai again and bring peace to his heart and land?” Xue asked.

Vita shook her head no. ”I am sorry but I can not bring your body back. I am not powerful enough.” Vita admitted. ”However I can bring peace to your lover's heart and he in turn will bring peace to the KIngdom.” Vita said. Xue dropped to her knees and bowed her head. ”Please Vita, please. Bring peace to Bai's heart. I beg you.” Xue pleaded.

”The cost will be great and you alone may not be enough to pay for it.” Vita said causing Xue to raise her head. ”Then why would you give me hope? I will do anything to bring peace to Bai's heart. So please don't take my hope away.” Xue cried. ”Then ask your family for help.” Vita said as she pointed behind Xue. Xue looked back and her jaw dropped. She slowly got up and gawked at the sea of white snakes standing behind her.

Their skin glowed a beautiful white while their eyes looked exactly like Vita's, a black opal. An elderly woman waked up to Xue and embraced her. ”Hello great granddaughter.” The woman said with an affectionate tone. ”H-hello?” Xue said awkwardly. The old woman smiled as she pulled away. ”You don't know me but I know you. My little Xue, let us help you.” The old woman said as the white snakes cheered from behind.
