The Anarchic Consort (1)

571-573

There was no mistake!

He was their king!

However, why did it look like their king did not recognize them anymore?!

Also, hadn't the king disappeared without a trace?

How had he become a human?

Furthermore, they could sense uncertain magic radiating from him.

What exactly was happening?

The two wraiths exchanged a confused look, an immense amount of curiosity written in their eyes.

After the war, demon hunters and their descendants would make use of their flesh and blood to create seals.

They had only managed to escape and survive because of the fact that they were born from human resentment.

The king's soul had been divided into countless fragments and thrown across the human world, and his physical body had ceased to exist. Not a single person knew of his whereabouts so humans and demons alike thought that he had passed...

Unless his plan had been to return since the beginning.

In a form that no one would ever have imagined... rebirth!

Crack...

As Baili Jia Jue's walked over, the thick fog suspended in the air began cracking like broken glass to open up a path of clarity.

Vaguely, a deep flight of stairs emerged at the center of the river, surrounded by torches emitting roaring blue flames.

The little one who was watching over the Fire of Resentment froze for a split second, his round eyes widening in disbelief as his eyes darted back and forth. "Master, is this scent his?"

Lacking stability compared to the little one, the blood of the Demon-Transforming Beast began boiling under the unknown pressure. Moreover, its claws started trembling out of its control and it was unable to stand upright. It was as though someone was ordering him around, making him kneel down!

The man in white lifted his gaze, a wave of astonishment was flashing through his eyes. Amongst the ripples, the reflection of his jet black irises stared back elegantly at him in a gentle yet dangerous manner, "He actually lived!" Upon saying that, the man turned toward the little one, "What time is it? How much time is left?"

"Not long now." The little one tossed yet another wraith into the glowing torch.

The flames grew bigger, spreading slowly around the coffin to surround Helian Wei Wei entirely!

The man let out a chuckle and bit hard onto his finger before guiding a drop of his blood into Helian Wei Wei's mouth, his loving gaze set on her pale face.

"At this moment, even if that person appears, he cannot change anything. You cannot replace the Phoenix Girl, so return to where you belong, Helian Wei Wei."

Boom!

The blue flames flared up!

Having returned from hell, Helian Wei Wei finally regained her sense of touch, but the sensation felt like her skin was set on fire and she could not fuse with the body at all. The burning sensation made her feel as if she was being tormented in hellfire

She could only stare helplessly as another Helian Wei Wei emerged from the surface of the lake and took graceful steps toward the body...

Meanwhile, she did not even have the strength to move, her vision restricted to the sight of that figure and the massive, glowing sea of flames.
