667 Come With Me (1/2)
Although Zhou Sisi was attractive, there were many immortal girls who were much more attractive than her. None of those girls won so much attention of the Divine Lord as Zhou Sisi enjoyed. In the six years, the Divine Lord had spent most of his time either by himself or by the side of Zhou Sisi. On the other hand, Zhou Sisi was very snappy toward Divine Lord, but he didn't seem to mind.
The Divine Lord was perfect and immaculate; Justine would give up her life for him. Every encounter with the Divine Lord was a miracle worth commemoration. So far, she had seen Divine Lord's face twelve times, and they had spoken eighty-six words. Justine knew that she was lucky among the immortal girls for she had the opportunity to look at Divine Lord's face.
The Divine Lord was destined to lord over not only the human world, but the entire universe.
After Zhou Sisi had changed into a nightgown, she was escorted by a group of Immortal guards, including Justine. Justine was not only a beautiful woman, but also a deadly level twenty-one warrior.
Patroclus had spared no expenses in ensuring Zhou Sisi's safety against assassins sent by radical human groups. Knowing that it was impossible to kill Patroclus, Zhou Sisi had become the human radical groups' top target. Her very existence was a disgrace to the human world.
But, despite the misunderstanding, Zhou Sisi never seemed to be upset by the assassination attempts.
A Maglev limo had been waiting for Zhou Sisi and her bodyguards. The guards scanned the surrounding nervously and didn't let their guard down for even a fraction of a second. The consequences of Zhou Sisi's death under their watch would be grave. The previous guard captain, after failing to prevent Zhou Sisi from getting injured by an attacker, was executed by Patroclus himself and died in excruciating pain.
Not all immortals were happy with Patroclus' mild approach toward Zhou Sisi. If he really wanted her so bad, why wouldn't he force-convert her into an Immortal? Despite the resentment, no one dared to speak their minds on the sensitive issue in front of the Divine Lord.
They traveled during rush hour, but upon seeing the Divine Lord's banner, all vehicles veered to the side and made way for the divine convoy.
”Are you ready?”
”Don't worry! We will blow up this b*tch!”
”Very well! Remember, she is not innocent. It is us freedom fighters' duty to do away with the traitor. We can't let her continue to dishonor the human race!”
”The convoy will arrive at Victory Avenue, so be ready.”
”Do everything as you're told. This is a critical moment in our revolution, comrades. Death of this traitor will be a decisive blow to our enemy.”
”Don't waste your time with the guards. Go straight for the woman!”
Zhou Sisi looked out of the car window at the blur of neon signs and passing pedestrians as she fell into the reverie of her past.
Would Wang Tong still remember her after so many years?
What if he had already forgotten her? If that were the case, maybe Patroclus was right: she meant nothing to Wang Tong.
She felt less resolute in her course of actions as she got closer to reuniting with Wang Tong.
”My lady, what are you thinking about?” Justine asked. She had been living with Zhou Sisi for many years and had established a certain measure of trust with her.
”It's nothing. I'm sentimental, you know.”
”Are you thinking about Wang Tong?” Justine asked.
Zhou Sisi didn't deny it; she heaved a sigh and closed her eyes. Wang Tong's face was still clear in her memory, but she wondered how much that image had changed.
She had learned that Wang Tong had already made his way back to earth and reunited with Ma Xiaoru. She felt genuinely happy for Ma Xiaoru; the latter had been through a lot over the years, but in the end, her efforts had led her to where she wanted to be.
”My Lady, just between you and me, I think you deserve better than Wang Tong. I have heard that he had surrounded himself with lots of beautiful faces while he was on Mars. A man like that cannot be trusted. The Divine Lord, on the other hand, had always been faithful to you even when you tried to distance yourself from him. He might be a demon in most humans' eyes, but he has always been caring for you.”
