Chapter 10: Mitch (2)
"Calm down Xuan hua ..." A woman walked in, a sly grin on her face " Siming got you worked up about Taohua"
"Demon God " Shu hua / Shifu mumbled then refused to acknowledge her " I am busy here "
Demon God moved closer and used a finger to flick Xuan Hua's sword; the sword trembled before breaking to pieces leaving only the hilt.
Xuan Hua trembled and glared at her.
Demon God's green eyes were swimming with mischievousness "Don't ever point a sword at me again sparrow"
She then looked at Shu hua and smiled
"Don't you want a solution for Taohua..."
"And why should I trust you? You are a demon but still manage to trick your way into becoming a demon god and even staying in the god realm, what assures me that you don't want to trick me too ?"
"I don't like the empress ... is that enough evidence?"
"You don't like anyone but yourself"
Demon God rolled her eyes " It's not like you can send Xuan Hua down there, the gods are still angry with you for what you did last time, but if it's me … No one cares what I'm up to… I'm your best bet at the moment "
Shu hua bit her lip in thought.
Seeing shu hua was already softening, she took a part of shu Hua's hair and start to braid; Xuan Hua seeing what she was doing, rolled her eyes.
After a while, Shu hua sighed in resignation.
"What do you want in exchange?"
"Your body " Seeing Shu hua raised an eyebrow, she laughed and shook her head " just give me some merits, I don't have much these days"
"Okay "
💕💕💕 ( Demon realm ) ( Boundary of the gumiho clan)
The cave was dark and chilly; the atmosphere circulating with demonic energy.
A man sat down in the middle of the cave; his eyes were closed in a meditative state, his beautiful face looked calm, and long white hair framed his face giving him an immortal look.
A talisman was burning at the edge of the cave when the last bit turned to Ash, a ting sound rang ominously.
The man opened his eyes.
For 253 years, he was bound to heaven prison; for 155 years, he has been recovering without seeing the light of the sun once.
He was now fully recovered and ready to meet that family...
He stood up and stretched out his limbs; the joints made crackling sounds.
"Let's see how that girl is doing..."
💕💕💕 ( Mortal realm ) (Seoul)
The place vibrated with loud sounds; there were twirling lights and grinding bodies. A young man was trying to move his way through the dancing people but he was being pushed left and right; at last he gave up and let the current decide his fate.
Broody hates clubs more than anything else in the world ... even more than dirt; But the club had offered a good amount of money. Besides, the only way to catch the demon was to lure it with lots of yang energy; Who produces Yang energy more than horny people?
He caught sight of a woman watching him. Her hair was white though bound into a tight bun, her lips were plump, red, and glossy giving anyone the illusion of promise, and her blue eyes were watching him with a slight wariness.
However Broody eyes sparkled with recognition.
Queen Spring!!!
This time he fought his way through the crowd and ignored the angry swearing around him. The woman seeing him come closer rolled her eyes and turned to leave.
"Demoness stop right there !!!"
She increased her speed.
Seeing no alternative; he mumbled into a talisman and threw it at her. The talisman stuck to her like glue and she froze.
Immediately he reached her, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the parking lot.
"Can't I enjoy my time in the club in peace, Hunter?"
"You don't recognize me?!" He pinched her chin hard; making her wince "Well I know it's been years but …you don't recognize me?!!!"
She glared at him ; oblivious to his frustration" I am not the one you are searching for... and besides if you know who I am; you won't dare to treat me this way in your next life "
He stared at her for a long while; Kate was already feeling a bit uncomfortable and was planning to use her demon powers before he finally pulled off the talisman.
"I only let you go because there's nothing good out of getting involved with you …" he slapped his forehead at his sentence and turned to leave, "Why am I so pissed off anyway?"
"The demon you want is the man in the shiny green crop top; be careful not to let him spit on you; he's a snake demon "
"Hmm"
When the man left; she let out a deep sigh and rubbed her arms. She couldn't defend herself when an exorcist attacked her; it was either he was abnormally strong, he wasn't human, or there was a disruption of flow in the demon realm.
Or maybe it's all three
She shivered at the last possibility; that would be the worst-case scenario because it means that her uncle was....No it can't be that; Even dad hasn't woken up…
But she still couldn't stop that lingering feeling; Without thinking she took her phone and called her younger brother.
The answer was immediate.
"Queen Spring any issues? do you need me to send more money?"
"Autumn, are you at home right now?"
"Yes "
She looked at her wristwatch. There was still time to take a flight home back to China.
"Good ... be expecting my visit"
Broody finally caught the slippery demon and killed him at the back of the toilet. He made sure to make it quick and painless though; just because he was an exorcist, doesn't mean he was barbaric. As soon as he got his pay; he sent a good amount to the bank.
His eyes watered at the notification that followed; at last, he was finally done with paying that loan. It was time to go back to China and see his friends.
He looked at his call logs and only the see 20 missed calls prompt from Nayima.
Nayima rarely calls, not to talk of 20 missed calls.
Feeling worried, he called back; She answered immediately.
"Bei Shang is in trouble"
"Trouble? How?" What the hell happened within a month of going to Seoul?!
Nayima told him the entire story, up to the part of her arm getting mangled. Broody clenched his fists in anger.
"I will look for Bei Shang then I'll avenge your arm "
"He's a Huli Jing with a powerful aura, don't dare with trying to kill him…. just make sure he's hurt "
Huli Jing? With a powerful aura?
"What color is his hair?"
"White hair?"
"Color of his eyes?"
"Blue color or is it purple? The color alternates , why are you asking?"
"It's very important, one last question, how do you rate his aura?"
"Off , tense and moody … a little muderous"
Broody closed his eyes and slap his forehead; meeting the Queen of the clan at a club, the General of the clan kidnap his best friend; Was this fate messing with him or was it something trying to drag him back home?
"Broody, I hope it's nothing serious?"
It is serious !!! "It's nothing serious…do you know which place they went to?"
"He said Chong an village but now I'm thinking about it, the huli jing probably lied …. I have no idea where they are and Bei Shang didn't call me back despite my instructions to "
"I'll check Chong an village and I'll check each border between the demon realm and the mortal realm… they're probably in one of those places "
"Wait before you go , I have something again to tell you "
"I'm listening "
There was a thick silence before Nayima said with a serious voice.
"When I first met him , I felt his aura was strange. Despite the fact that he already revealed he's a demon , his aura is stronger than that of a demon …it's like that of a god"
Broody waved his hands as if she could see him " That's how Huli Jing auras are , it's nothing…"
"It's not about strength this time; the aura is strong like someone..no a demi god or a god imprinted on him…"
"You don't need to be worried; that demon is a very important and powerful demon in the whole demon realm so his aura is stronger than the average aura. If you feel nervous about his aura , you will feel even more amazed by his sister own"
Nayima really felt like she wasn't wrong but she can't argue with an halfie demon especially the one who spent half of his life in the demon realm.
So she only kept her thoughts to herself and nod.
"Okay then, stay safe …I'll call you once in a while to check the progress "
A shiver suddenly ran through his spine and he rubbed his arms at the goosebumps; That was strange, his sister hasn't summoned him in a while now.
Does it mean that it was time for him to go to the demon realm?
But he has to find Bei Shang …
"I'll find Bei Shang first, then once I find him …I will use the opportunity to go back home "
Feeling a bit confident in his choice, he opened his phone and started to look at available flights.
