Little Phoenix Is Not An Immortal

59: To Lie Occasionally

The scenery of Shi Fang Void Country became inexplicably desolate, with boundless falling trees and endless fading grass. The two stably stood on the multicolored snake back as it passed through the clouds. No one spoke, and the remaining grudge in each other's heart seemed to have faded away; the atmosphere between the two was unprecedentedly harmonious. Heavenly Lady Huan didn't let her send her too far, and she quickly stopped the snake when she left the demon world.

Tian Zhen looked back and said, "Actually His Highness..."

"He's always been like this," Heavenly Lady Huan interrupted. "If he had really minded, then he would not have you send me off like this. Actually, I'm glad he didn't come."

Tian Zhen coughed softly: "His Highness said those heavy words to make you return the neidan to me."

Heavenly Lady Huan replied: "I know better than you, you don't have to comfort me."

"Since the Heavenly Lady knows, why insist on leaving? His Highness needs you."

"If he is not retaining me, then His Highness has already made a choice. Or do you want me to stay and watch him continue to pamper you? Are you pitying me?"

"I didn't mean it that way."

If she lost, she kept her last bit of pride. Tian Zhen didn’t hate her, but rather admired her. 

Although she has used some small tricks to drive her away, Heavenly Lady Huan had never put her life in danger. It made this contest seem relatively fair.

"Where does Heavenly Lady Huan plan to go?"

"At the bottom of Mount Youpo, I plan to seal my consciousness and wake up in tens of millions of years later. I hope to see His Highness at that time."

Tian Zhen hesitated. It was not easy to persuade her.

Heavenly Lady Huan suddenly added: "If your dantian is damaged, it is impossible to repair your neidan. Your Highness is willing to pay the price to protect you, and you should return the favor. If I ask you to take it again at this moment, would you be willing?"

Tian Zhen was silent for a while, and said, "You can take it."

Heavenly Lady Huan raised her hand slowly, but she just slightly tucked back the hair on her temple and smiled: "Now that you know the problem of your neidan, you should understand how important you are."

Tian Zhen said: "I won't run around recklessly anymore, does Heavenly Lady want to tell me anything else?"

Heavenly Lady Huan turned to face her. "Time is running out. His Highness used his God Light to absorb the poison from your body, it’s now in his neidan. It will take at least half a year for him to slowly eliminate the toxin. During this period, to suppress the poison, His Highness can only use half his power."

Tian Zhen was already mentally prepared, but she was still stunned when she heard this.

Heavenly Lady Huan continued: "Even so, there is still no one in the Six Realms who can match him. I’m just worried because of you."

"I see."

"This is the last favor I'm doing for him, you take care of yourself."

After Heavenly Lady Huan finished speaking, she waved her long sleeves seemingly casually. She stepped on the back of the snake again, floated away, and quickly disappeared into the clouds. She never looked back.

At the same time, a figure fell to the ground and passed out.

Tian Zhen felt melancholy for Heavenly Lady Huan's departure, but when she turned her head, she was surprised  to see the person on the ground.

Dragon Girl De Yin?

After poisoning her, she dared to come to check the situation in person? Tian Zhen thought about the suffering she caused and the damage to His Highness’s magic power caused by this woman, and became more and more angry. It happened that this area was close to Void Heaven, and there were demon soldiers guarding nearby. She called two demon soldiers and had them carry Dragon Girl back to the Devil Palace.

To maintain one’s status, one will inevitably be lonely. Heavenly Lady Huan’s popularity was not very good in the Demon World. Now that she left, all the demons were happy for Tian Zhen, but Tian Zhen was not happy at all. Standing on the top of Rock Mountain, she felt that the Void Heaven was much colder than usual; it smelled like the human world’s autumn.

The Demon God stood alone on the highest point of the stone fence located right outside of Qin Palace Hall on the seventh floor, as if looking out into the distance.

Tian Zhen stepped up the stairs in a hurry, but stopped short when she saw him. She was shocked at first, but then walked lightly to his side. She followed his gaze and saw thousands of miles of rocky mountains, various color lights illuminated from the night pearls: red, yellow, blue, purple and green, light and dark. It was a very romantic scene. There was no clear distinction of the horizon; it was hard to tell what was the sky or the mountain.

No one spoke for a while. It wasn’t until the night pearl on the pillar of the Qin Palace Hall was covered, then the surrounding night pearls’ light went out one after another.

Night had arrived.

Tian Zhen turned her head to look at the person beside her, and saw that he was still motionless. The loneliness foiled by the waning night pearls was concealed by the imposing manner of his body.

Tian Zhen gently grabbed his hand: "What is Your Highness looking at and so fascinated by?"

The Devil God retracted his gaze. He turned to look at her and said, "When I look at this familiar sky, reluctance is felt. It seemed that I was about to leave it."

As a god who followed the Will of Heaven, although he was not afraid of Tai Shang Mirror, he still had a trace of yearning for the Six Realms.

Tian Zhen reluctantly smiled and said, "Your Highness firmly believes in the Will of Heaven… Is it because you think I will harm you?"

"I didn't mean that."

"Then why is Your Highness always admidant about it?"

"What will happen to you if I get sealed again?"

Tian Zhen didn't answer, but instead asked, "What kind of answer does Your Highness want to hear?"

The Devil God looked away and said, "Give an answer that will make me happy."

"Does Your Highness also like to hear lies?"

"Occasionally."

"If I said I would live well, would your Highness be disappointed?"

The Demon God looked at her again and said after a while, "I don't like your directness, Phoenix."

"I will live well and find a way to save His Highness," Tian Zhen blinked at him, "What? Is Your Highness not satisfied with this answer?"

"Stupid," The Devil God raised his hand and patted her on the forehead. He then turned his face to the side and continued. "What ability do you have to save me?"

"Then I’ll say that I will accompany Your Highness in the Tai Shang Mirror. Will this answer please His Highness?"

"Insincere flattery."

Tian Zhen smiled: "I actually went to Immortal Realm."
