5 Chapter Five

Wu Yingtai seated herself at the stone table to the side. She flipped through a book, waiting for the two figures that were engaged in a violent scuffle to cool down.

Golden sparks and black smoke attacked each other, causing the already frail-looking courtyard to instantly vanish.

Bang!

A crater was formed near Wu Yingtai as the god and demon both separated slightly.

'You mouldy rat, have you forgotten how your race has been sealed by us once?' Dai Meixiu snarled in pent-up anger.

Although her urge to kill this damn rodent was great, she still held herself back knowing that the vile snake was occupying the body of whom she thought might be her gege.

Mo Chou smirked as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

A vessel really wasn't as good as his own body. He's even being beaten up by a small immortal, wasn't this too shameful for someone like him?

'I'm also guessing you've forgotten how much damage the celestial realm took after the battle?' Mo Chou straightened himself up before stretching, it really was painful.

Ah, all he wants was to eat a big meal filled with meat before taking a warm bath!

Dai Meixiu froze as her breathing became unsteady, her fist shook from the force she clenched them in.

He really was taunting her to the extreme, he dares bring something like that up?

Violent anger rushed through Dai Meixiu's body, a vision of the blood-drenched battlefield flashed through her mind.

Her blood was boiling as she glared at the demon before her like he was someone she must kill at all cost.

She wanted his blood, she wanted him dead!

The air shifted, causing Wu Yingtai who had been minding her own business to the side to clench her teeth at the pressure.

She looked up at the two figures not too far away from her, while one was still grinning, the other looked like she's gone crazy.

'Dai Meixiu,' Wu Yingtai gritted out as she took an unsteady breath, her head was about to split open from the force exuded from the immortal, 'remember the laws of Heaven.'

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried to steady the churning cultivation inside her body, it couldn't fight against the pressure of a god. In the end, it caused her to cough out a mouthful of blood.

Although her voice was relatively soft, for an immortal like Dai Meixiu she clearly heard. Therefore despite her current state, she managed to wrestle control of her mental state.

Mo Chou had been concentrated on keeping the body of Fei Hong standing.

Although the pressure of the small god hadn't affected his soul, it did affect the mortal body of his vessel.

Luckily he could use his soul essence to protect Fei Hong's body slightly, preventing it from exploding.

Dai Meixiu took a deep breath before fixing her gaze on the tragic figure before her. Despite knowing the soul of the person looking at her wasn't her gege, seeing the familiar and handsome face, Dai Meixiu felt slightly guilty.

'Really a rat,' she huffed before walking and taking a seat opposite Wu Yingtai who had already cleaned her bloody state up.

'Little Yue, you must know of a way, right?' Dai Meixiu pulled a set of warm tea out of her spatial space before pouring her and Wu Yingtai a cup of tea.

Wu Yingtai wasn't polite as she took the cup and took a sip, slightly internally praising the taste before placing the cup down. 'We need to help him form a physical body.'

Dai Meixiu's beautiful face scrunched up hearing this. No way, right? A celestial helping a demon gain a physical body, wasn't that a sin? Wouldn't she be struck down by the heavenly lightning for such blaspheme?

Wu Yingtai noticed her expression before picking up her book and placing it inside her spatial ring. 'Or you could take him up into the Heavenly Realm, but the only way to enter with a mortal-'

'Would be by notifying the higher-ups and a valid reason for bringing a mortal into the celestial realm.' Dai Meixiu cut in as she rubbed her forehead while drumming her fingers on the table.

Notifying the higher-ups would result in both the mortal boy and this demon to perish.

A lot of people were unaware, but she knows very well how those in court deal with demons. They'll make sure to get rid of everything than have a possible chance of the devil resurrecting.

Dai Meixiu wasn't even sure if this little girl Wu Yingtai would survive if they found out she was involved, hell she wasn't even sure if she'll survive!

Who wasn't aware how corrupted the heavenly court actually was, as long as there are merits to be gained, to help them achieve a higher rank they'll do whatever they can to get it?

Who said the Heavens were fair, they're even worse than these cute mortals who only know how to poisoning each other to death!

Mo Chou silently took a seat next to the pretty Demi-God, as he picked up half drank tea in her cup before taking a sip himself.

Wu Yingtai saw his actions before frowning. 'Don't do that again.' Although she didn't mind sharing things, the thing she hated the most was sharing something that involved consumption.

Food or water, there was no way she was willing to share, it was disgusting and unhygienic.

Mo Chou raised a brow before provokingly taking another sip.

Dai Meixiu's breathing became heavy as she stuck Mo Chou. Her action was too fast for the two opposite her to react as Wu Yingtai showed a stunned expression for the first time.

Wu Yingtai's hair was still swaying from the force, although she was unharmed the person next to her wasn't.

Mo Chou found himself laying in a heap as he coughed, his chest was in pain. It's been such a long time, he has only seen those cold and aloof women or those shy but alluring ones.

So why was this damn celestial so violent?!

Wu Yingtai turned her stiff neck to look at the tragic figure on the floor.

Really, was it alright to strike someone who hadn't done anything wrong?

She suddenly felt little sympathy for the devilish figure, opening her mouth she was about to ask if he was alright only to be cut off by Dai Meixiu.

'Little Yue it's fine, the damn rat ain't dead yet.' Dai Meixiu arrogantly said before sitting back down.

She had to stand up earlier to throw out that punch. She blew on her knuckles, mhm, she'll have to go back to the celestial realm to get her nails done at some point.

She hadn't permed herself for so long, she's beginning to feel like a wild woman!

Wu Yingtai pursed her lips. Well as long as he's not dead, then she guessed it really was alright.
