Chapter 241 - 239. They Are Our Masters II (1/2)
Third-person POV
Tao Qi stared at Yin Yu with bewildered eyes. He had hoped that his speculation was false so he wouldn't get punished by Hei An for offending him when Hei An's soul went back to his original form.
”So that's why his eyes can change like that! How stupid I am to offend master?! Wait! So Hong er is Goddess Sheng Jie?!” Tao Qi exclaimed as his hands started to tremble.
”I assume it is. Goddess Sheng Jie has the holy power that soothes one's negative power. Usually, people would think that holy power is the most effective power to hurt demons, well, they are not wrong. But because of that, our unstable power can be easily calmed by only the presence of Goddess Sheng Jie's power.” Yin Yu's lips curled into a soft smile when she thought of Sheng Jie's gentle personality.
”No wonder her face is so familiar, I saw her when Master Hei An lost control of his power and she suddenly appeared out of nowhere then started to scold our master.” Tao Qi knocked on his forehead as he punished himself for forgetting such an important event.
(A/N: The event that Tao Qi was talking about is when Sheng Jie visited Hei An because the human world became chaotic because of his unstable power. More like, Hei An fell in love with Sheng Jie moment.)
”From what I know, this Hong er you are talking about is the empress of Da Qi, the current strongest country. And maybe that Liu brat you asked is the emperor of Da Qi, her husband.” Yin Yu explained calmly.
On the other side, Tao Qi was freaking out within his heart. His face turned whiter than Yin Yu's white fox fur bed.
”I am dead, even though I am still alive right now, I am literally dead. Master Hei An will destroy my soul when he comes back.” Tao Qi murmured while pulling on his hair.
Yin Yu also became anxious when she saw the petrified expression on Tao Qi's face, ”What is going on?”
Tao Qi exhaled a deep sigh and started to freak out, ”I literally kicked Master Hei An out from Cursed Land! I also lied to him and swore under his name that no one came into the Cursed Land other than him! The meaning is that I literally separated Master Hei An and Goddess Sheng Jie! And I am literally dead!” Tao Qi profusely slammed his head to the floor.
Yin Yu's face instantly paled, the maids around her also looked around in worry. Hei An was known to be cruel and merciless before he met Sheng Jie, therefore, little and high-ranked demons like them really grateful of Sheng Jie for taking control of Hei An's emotion.
Sometimes Sheng Jie would help them to get out when they were in a pinch such as getting punished for talking in a vulgar way in front of Sheng Jie. They were demons, it was hard for them to change old habits so they often get into trouble because of it.
Yin Yu touched her chin with her long fingers as her brows furrowed in contemplation.
”Maybe this is one of the Creator's test?” Yin Yu stated with a tint of uncertainty tone in her voice.
”Probably! But I am making it harder for them, Master Hei An will come for me.” Tao Qi continued to slam his head onto the floor.
Yin Yu couldn't help but agree with Tao Qi. The first trial was where both Hei An and Sheng Jie were punished in the most gruesome place and most painful torture that could exist for god, the Fallen God.
Hei An had been mentally tortured by watching Sheng Jie being tortured relentlessly for thousands of years, therefore, the frustration inside of him was piling up and they fear that Hei An would be merciless towards Tao Qi.
”I know what I am going to say is only an assumption but how about you request help from Goddess Sheng Jie as soon as she returned to heaven.” Yin Yu's face brightened as she suggested.
