Baili Jia Jue paused for a moment.
However, the pause was very brief that it was almost unnoticeable.
“He is a devil, a devil does not die.” Baili Jia Jue put on a very bloodthirsty smile, its evilness was in the bone.
Just then, the son of the King of h.e.l.l only realized that he could not stop this man.
After Phoenix was gone, he became the big devil who was once famous for his ma.s.sacre again.
Tian Dao and Buddhism fell into a crisis that was no less crucial than Magic Path.
The problem this time was that Baili Jia Jue might have had greater destructive power than last time.
At that time, he merely liked power and influence. His carelessness left some leeways. Anyway, he just wanted to defeat people.
The present him was still elegant but under the elegance, there was a desire to ma.s.sacre without any obstruction.
If he really destroyed the underworld, the Six Paths would be in a mess!
No way!
He had to stop this man!
The silhouette of the King of h.e.l.l's son shook and blocked in front of Baili Jia Jue. He spoke loudly, “Phoenix has come to the Netherworld to look for me previously!”
In a flash, the boiling fire sea in h.e.l.l fell back again.
Baili Jia Jue carried the son of the King of h.e.l.l up. He lowered his voice, sounding a little bit hoa.r.s.e when he spoke, “What do you really know?”
The pain of losing Helian Wei Wei almost made him go on a rampage for every moment.
However, Baili Jia Jue suppressed his feelings forcefully because he was not sure if he could find any hope here.
The son of the King of h.e.l.l looked at him. “Perhaps, Phoenix had known something at an earlier time so she searched for me in the netherworld. She wanted to check about herself and I told her that her book of life and death is not in the netherworld. Not only hers but also the emperor, yours are not here too. You are born in chaos and do not belong to the Six Paths. No one could control you and she was the only anomaly in Buddhism. There is nothing about her in the book of life and death. The only book that records about her is…”
“Tian Ji.” Before the son of the King of h.e.l.l finished his sentence, Baili Jia Jue interrupted in a malicious manner, “According to the legend, only the owner can open it, right?”
The son of the King of h.e.l.l nodded his head. “It is a huge calculation, rather than a book. When it operates, there are innumerable calculations and conjectures of the data. Besides, Phoenix has once found the one who understands this but just like what the people say, the owner of Tian Ji would only turn out when he wants.”
“You mean I have to wait?” A calm before the storm was heard in Baili Jia Jue's voice.
The son of the King of h.e.l.l was not afraid of him. “We will only know whether Phoenix disappeared if you could find the owner of Tian Ji. I know you never wait for anything but this time, you can either wait or change nothing even if you destroy the whole world.”
He knew that this sentence could persuade him because he was clear that Phoenix surpa.s.sed everything in this man's heart.
It even included his born arrogance.
Indeed.
Baili Jia Jue released the hand which was used to choke his neck slowly and the raging torrent behind him gradually became mild.
Those dead souls who almost went up in smoke in the fire were rescued finally. They lied p.r.o.ne on the ground and breathed heavily.
The vibration of the netherworld returned to peace.
The judge who hid under the table also crawled out with a writing brush in his hand.
The King of h.e.l.l was the most irritated. He was just about to fight with Baili Jia Jue but he did not expect he would stop suddenly.
Baili Jia Jue did not even glance at the King of h.e.l.l when he paced over. Even his left leg was held tightly by a child.
The King of h.e.l.l looked at the child for a long while and burst into sudden laughter.
He decided not to look for Baili Jia Jue's trouble because his son was already an enormous problem to him!
The Green Dragon and Fire Qilan who were at the external side of the netherworld originally thought that this place would be shattered. They had prepared for their master to go on a rampage at any moment.
They did not expect their master would walk out from the dark on his own. As if he looked like he was already calm down but the pair of reddened eyes appeared as though he would kill a lot of people at any time. “Go and find the Pei fellow, no matter if he is in Tian Dao or Buddhism, find him even if you need to dig deep!”
Upon hearing this order, Fire Qilin and Green Dragon exchanged a glance with each other before they lowered their heads and answered, “Yes.”
They were not clear of His Highness' thought.
Did he really calm himself down?
Fire Qilan and Green Dragon fixed their gaze at the tall and straight silhouette who was walking in front of them.
Without knowing when it snowed. The mist hovered in the air. Even when people spoke, gas could be formed.
Theoretically, it would not snow during this season.
However, the snow was increasingly heavier because of Baili Jia Jue.
Baili Jia Jue's face was emotionless. He walked at the front like a dead-alive person while his left leg was held by the little demon's huge and short arms.
The little demon did not worry about the coldness and the rage from Baili Jia Jue. He immediately treated his father's leg as a teether. He bit the ‘teether' with an evil smile.
The snow fell on the tree branches, house beams, long wooden chairs like goose feathers as if this winter would never end.
A snow-like lonely silhouette stood in the middle of the imperial palace with distinct black and white, like a splashed-ink painting. His hair flew and there was a cold facial expression on his dashing face.
At this moment, nothing could be sense from this man.
Neither his arrogance, elegance, contempt, mock, frailness nor cruelty.
He just stood there. There was some white snow dangling on his thick eyelashes. The marble under his feet cracked one inch by one inch as a result of being stained by the blood spurted out from his bleeding fingertips.
At that moment, only the Green Dragon and Fire Qilin understood that their master had not calmed himself down. Instead, he hid the rage deeper, causing others to feel uneasy.
However, they did not know that Baili Jia Jue was merely missing that person.
He never thought that the Phoenix that he reared all this while would leave.
Since he never thought of that, it was a heartbreaking moment for him when he lost her.
It was not a drastic feeling, instead, it was nothing but a sensation of having a sore throat and a sore in the eyes as if he was drained completely.
Fire Qilin did not dare to take a glance at his owner at this juncture. Deep down, he knew that he had to look for the Pei fellow. If they had no news of the Pei fellow, his master would destroy the entire world when he broke out again.
However, Fire Qilin was afraid that they would be informed that the princess consort was gone for good when they managed to locate the Pei fellow later on.
I wonder if my Master's reaction will be more serious than this at that time.
Fire Qilin could not bring himself to imagine the outcome. The only thing he could do was to find the person out as soon as possible…
