She supposed his elder brother Mo Yuan was good looking too since they share the same face. But Bai Qian preferred clean-shaven men. And Ye Hua was much more fun to tease.

Da Ji brandished her crawls and charged straight at Mo Yuan. Bai Qian loved watching her aunt fight. Bai Qian loved watching her aunt fight. She battled with the fury of a desert storm. To Bai Qian, her aunt was the greatest demoness in the world. The most powerful woman in the world.

Her claws were imbued with poison. They were able to kill any man with just one cut. Her tails were more than decorative. They were enchanted and hypnotic to anyone who beholds it.

The problem was Mo Yuan wasn't just any man. A warrior god, they called him. Mo Yan was an incredible fighter and brilliant strategist. A true Taoist master who had complete control of his mind and body. He is the only man alive that could go toe to toe with her aunt.

"You may escape the execution block, Da Ji, " Mo Yuan called out, "But you can't escape justice!"

"Please, " Da Ji laughed, "I have been escaping from you for hundreds of years, "

She leaped away from his strike, "You should concentrate on teaching your students better. Jiang Zi Ya failed the first time, now you're here to clean up his mess, "

Mo Yuan's face turned a shade darker, he let out a war cry and charged again.

Ye Hua leaped up to meet her on top of the spire, he slashed his sword at her. Bai Qian jumped away and blocked his strike. She managed to force him to drop his sword from his hand.

"Hey!" Ye Hua yelled and summoned his sword back to him. Cheater.

She may be terrible at performing spells. Bai Qian never had to rely on cheap tricks in a sword fight. She was the best of her generation. She trained twice as hard as any demon even Ye Hua was never her match.

He slashed at her with blinding speed, Bai Qian narrowly avoided death. She turned and found inches of her hair was cut off.

"Hey!" She huffed.

Ye Hua smirked. Bai Qian didn't know that the brooding celestial could smile. She admitted that's a good look at him.

"You look much prettier now, " he commented.

How dare he! Did he realize how long it took for her to grow to that length? Jerk.

Bai Qian gripped her sword tighter, "You little-"

He didn't let her finish the sentence. He had her cornered. She had no means of escape. He hit his sword against hers and sent it flying across the room. With his elbow, he pushed her against the wall.

"Got you, " he said.

She took back her last statement.

At the corner of her eye, she saw her aunt collapsed on the floor, Mo Yuan towered before her. With one hand he pointed a sword at her. Another glowed with a blinding light.

A copper bell appeared on the palm of his hand. It didn't look threatening at first. The sight of it sent shivers down Bai Qian's tails.

"What is that?" She asked.

"The Eastern Emperor Bell, " Ye Hua said, "We're going to seal Da Ji in there, "

"And me?" She asked, pouting her lips.

He eyed her, "The Demon Sealing Pagoda, "

Never in a million years.

Bai Qian struggled against him. She had heard stories about the bell. Once trapped inside, you wish that you were dead. It radiated powerful celestial energy and was surrounded by the holy scarlet flame.
