"What did you just say???"They asked in shock
"Elder kang,speak up!!"Elder long yelled as his body shook in fear
Elder kang sat in his seat looking downcast abd devasted
"We are all doomed!!!,the devil has broken from his chain!"He uttered again causing another wave of fear around the elders
Every single elder present were lost in their own thoughts
It was ultmost silence for almost an hour before an elder rose up and spoke
"I suggest we let the prophesy take it place!"He said causing a loud upoar
"Are you crazy elder fu???"An elder yelled in anger
"Do you know the consequences that follows if we let the prophesy take its course ??" Another added as every elder nodded their head in support of what he said
Elder fu scoff at the annoying elders that he once told a certain time not to trick the devil
Not only did they trick him,they locked him up and chained him just because of power and wealth
"Well do any of you have any other suggestions??"He asked in a mocking tune and they all went shut....
"Elder fu is right! this is the only way!" Elder Kong said as grumbles could be heard but no one spoke against it
"Luke!!"He yelled and a young man ran in almost immediately
"My lord!!"
"Make an annoucement,from the upper realm to the middle realm and down to the lower realm,there will be an opening for five top students to join the upper elect elders!! "He ordered snapping his fingers
Luke was in shock because this was the first time such a thing had ever happened
An opportunity to become one of the most prestigious heads of the upper realm was really a fantasy which was about to become real
He bowed as he immediately vanished to carry out the orders
It was so obvious that none of the elders liked the idea but none could oppose to it either
They knew it was the only way to survive when the devil comes for their blood!!!
So giving out such opportunity was really worth it...
But the question is..... when will the devil strike??
How long would it take before the devil decides to release his wrath on them???
***************
Back to the middle realm, Mo fan walked together with Lin ran as they both went from shops to shop looking for some certain herbs
"Mistress, I don't think they sell these kind of herbs here! "Lin ran complained tiredly
MO fan smiled at her lazy hand maid....
It was so obvious she was tired but she never complained or said anything until now
"Alright then, just one more herb and I promise we are good to go! "I promised causing a smile to spread widely across her petite cute face
I thought all humans were weak and pathetic.... but this girl proved me wrong
She is strong in her own way and has the heart of gold unlike me....
"Wow!!! "Lin ran yelled excitedly drawing my attention towards what she was looking at...
I couldn't see anything because of how crowded the place was
"What is going on there? "I asked feeling irritated by how crowded humans could get
"Mistress, the famous physician, Juan ki is in town today!! I heard from the maids when they were gossiping that the king invited him! "She said excitedly while I raised my brows in amusement
From the memories of the past soul, I knew a little who Juan ki was...
One of the greatest physician in the upper realm
It was totally a big thing to see him in the middle realm
Seriously??
I am the empress of a thousand lightenings yet they adore and praise some foolish nobody with just little knowledge about refining pills and conjuring herbs??
Tsk tsk.... humans can be foolish most of the times
I shook my head at the excited Lin ran and felt real pity for her and many others like her who adores such a disgusting person
I could perceive the faint smell of herbs from his body but I knew he is not the one refining the pills or herbs
Fortunately, he had the herbs I wanted and I could feel it was authentic
It is obvious there is a genius behind the fake 'genius '🙄
I turned around to look and noticed almost everyone had their attention on the fake fool..
Yawning loudly, I felt so bored waiting for Lin ran to pay for the herbs and let's leave, when I noticed a pair of eyes on me
I turned and saw a deep black eyes...
Extremely dark with no ray of sunlight
At first I got shocked because I have only seen such eyes before when I was still a goddess
The eyes were extremely dark
It belongs to the devil...
Wait!! hold on....
Who was the guy with a mask on??
He didn't focus on the crowd instead his eyes were on me instead as If analyzing me
I stared into his eyes as we were both lost in our staring competition
"Mistress!! "I heard a loud voice drawing me back to reality
I glared at my poor small devilish handmaid who had a wide grin on her face and a few bruises on her body which made me frown
"What happened to you? " I asked but she kept that silly grin on her face
"Mistress, I had to fight to get these herbs.... so many people needed it, but I defeated them and came out victorious! "She boosted in pride
I smiled at the little human who I have come not to dislike so much
"I hope I made mistress proud? "She asked and I nodded which made her smile grew wider
I pinch her puffy round cheeks making her giggle which cause a little smile to blossom on my face
"Let's go! "
"Okay! "She said and strolled forward happily
I shook my head at the little bunny human in front of me smirking...
My eyes turned to the direction of the man in the mask but not to my surprise, he was already gone
What exactly is the devil doing here??? and why does his eyes gives me so much creeps!?
*****************
The certain mask man stood at a hidden distance staring at the girl in a white robe...
His face were cold but his eyes had a hint of amusement to it
"My lord! " A man bowed to him...
"I never knew a fallen goddess now resides in a human! and here I was thinking Selene is a good creator! "He said in his deep seductive voice smirking slightly...
"What do you know about her?? "He asked the man kneeling
"Her name is mo fan... one of the daughters of the mo family, one of the most prestigious family in the zuo empire... She is the eldest granddaughter and the most useless one... rumors has it that she was born very ugly with a large scar on her face that's why she always put on a veil! "He narrated earning a deep chuckle from the man on the mask
"Interesting..... a goddess in a useless body... seeking to redeem the body??? hmm now isn't that interesting ?? "The man asked rhetorically...
"Find out more.... I want to know where she lives before night fall! "He ordered and one of the men vanished into thin air to follow the order
"Have you found out the location of those old fools that dare trick me?? "
"No my lord, but information has it that they are planning on organizing a competition to bring out the best five that could defeat you just like the prophesy said! "
The masked man snort, and laughed evilly for a few minutes
"Now isn't that super interesting???..... trying to send innocent kids to me instead of coming themselves! "The man said licking his dried red lips
"I will give them time.... for now, let me seat back and watch how they plan to destroy me....! "He smirked vanishing into thin air followed by his subordinates
****************
Both I and Lin ran got to the mo mansion and found the place a bit cheerful
Hmm I must admit... not what I was expected...
I was thinking the news of the eldest mistress almost killing the third mistress must had spread round by now
"Mistress, what's going on? "Lin asked and I shook my head slightly
"I don't know either... go find out! "I said walking towards my minor while Lin skipped away to secure the piece of information
I walked into my minor and quickly locked the door behind me
Summoning the little devil inside me, I saw him looking tired and exhausted
"Woah! what is wrong with you pumpkin! "I asked and he glared at me weakly
"My name is not pumpkin....! "He said and I smirked
"Whatever you say pumpkin! "I retorted back causing him to frown tiredly
"Here I have gotten all the herbs! "I said giving him the herbs
I could see his eyes lit up at the sight of the herbs
"I need to eat first before we could begin! "He said gobbling down some of the herbs without even waiting for my reply
No table manners
I shook my head staring at him...
It was quite obvious that he was so hungry,weak and pathetic ,I can't watch him like this
I yawned tiredly...
"Wake me once you are done preparing the herbs! "I said collapsing on the soft bed falling asleep immediately....
By the time I woke up, it was already past midnight
I looked around and saw pumpkin mixing some herbs
"You are awake? "He asked and I replied with a 'Hmm'
He smiled brightly with his body radiant of energy...
"I can see you have eaten! "I said and he nodded
"Thank you... although you are a terrible person but you did not starve me to death! "He said causing me to smile
"Get into this bathtub! "He ordered as his face got serious making him look so adorable...
I wanted to pinch his little cheeks but I had to endure
I got into the bathtub that was filled with Red substance...probably from the herbs
I could feel the spiritual energy coming from it making me lick my lips in hunger
I softly laid into the bathtub and tried to concentrate as the spiritual energy flow into my body
Due to my soul had lightening... I couldn't feel the pains that came with the spiritual energy
I absorbed it relaxing fully....
"I have blocked every noise from outside, so concentrate more on cultivating and harvesting more spiritual energy! "He said and I nod...
He vanished back into my body leaving me inside the tub...
After few hours of absorbing the energy, I could feel my self about to advance... I tried to concentrate more absorbing more energy as my spiritual tree grew for the first time into a tiny green leaf...
I breathed down when I finally was able to cultivate into my first spiritual tree...
I got out of the tub feeling light and radiating from spiritual energy
Even though it was just the first fruit, but at least I was able to cultivate
It is a start for me
A knock came on the door and I quickly wore my robe before opening the door...
"Mistress! "Lin ran bowed before entering into my minor
I sat down tapping the chair for her to seat...
"Mistress I...
"Wow mistress... why is ur skin glowing so much? "She asked feeling shocked making me smile
I don't want to tell her yet that I have finally been able to cultivate my first spiritual fruit
"I changed to a new cream!"I replied causally and she nodded with a 'ohhh'
"So what was it you wanted to tell me?? "I asked causing to gasp
"Ah I almost forgot!"she said slapping her head as her eyes brightened causing my brows to raise in amusement
"Mistress.... there is a competition organized by the elders of the pavilion division of the upper realm... they are giving a spot to the first five special and strongest people with abilities to join them! "She said happily
Hmm elders of the pavilion division??
I know those snotty old brats
When I was still the empress of lightening, they wanted to steal my powers
I never got the chance to teach them a lesson, now look how such a wonderful opportunity present itself to me
"But why would they want to give away such a wonderful opportunity just like that? "She waked lost in thoughts
"I heard that to get into the upper realm pavilion school is so hard, but yet those elders just presented an opportunity for any random person to join them! "She said causing me to think
She was right!.
Something seems fishy....
"I heard both the crown prince and second mistress, wedding will be postponed because they both have decided to answer the call of the upper realm.... that is why the whole mansion is in celebration! "She said with her face puffed in anger causing me to giggle
"It's alright Lin ran... let them do whatsoever they wish to okay? "I said and she nodded
"Mistress I will leave you to rest now! "She said and walked out leaving me in thoughts
"Come out, whomever you are! "I ordered in a cold voice
Am not a fool...
I could feel presence of someone in my room
"Isn't it impressive how you can still sense the presence of someone even in this weak human form?? "A cold seductive voice replied
I glared at the man that move in a flash in front of me
I rolled my eyes
"Scoff show off! "I muttered earning a chuckle from me
"I never knew an empress can be downgraded to a common human! "
"I never knew the devil can be chained up and locked up by common human! "I retorted back unafraid making him snort a laughter...
"What's with the mask? "I asked and he smirk
"I don't want human females throwing themselves at me! "He said and I smirk
"Ohhh,so the devil is scared of a little attention! "I mocked rolling my eyes earning a devilish laughter from him
He drew closer to me while I moved back until my back touched the wall
His hands formed as a bridge at me side as his face drew very closer to mine
I could feel the faint scent of his breath over my face
"I only like it when you give me that attention! "He said as his mint fresh strawberries breath spread across my face making me feel dizzy
Too close....
Way too close....
Danger!!! Danger!!!!!
