The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

Chapter 225: The Seed of Hatred

'What's happening to this fool?' FaMo thought to himself.

Tristan immediately scooped FaMo in his arms after reaching his spot. "FaMo, let's see if Ma and Pa can convince Zhen-Zhen to go home tonight. If it doesn't work then we will go there and sleepover with them. Through this, we can be together with Zhen-Zhen!"

"What do you think, FaMo? It is a brilliant idea right?" Tristan asked FaMo enthusiastically.

FaMo just watched Tristan with his annoyed expression because he just barged in and he was not in the mood to entertain him. But when he realized what Tristan had just said a while ago, FaMo's expression suddenly changed.

'Did he just mention Zhen-Zhen? I think he said we can be together with Zhen-Zhen!' FaMo's eyes lit up with anticipation. Just like Tristan, he wanted to be with Zhen-Zhen. He didn't want to be separated from her.

Tristan sat down on Zhen-Zhen's bed, still cuddling FaMo in his hand. He started petting FaMo's head and began talking to him.

"FaMo, I think I owe Zhen-Zhen an explanation. Maybe I made a mistake, that's why she was acting like this. But don't worry FaMo. I will do my best to talk to her. I hope this time she will listen to me." Tristan said to FaMo.

'Don't tell me this dummy was the one who triggered Zhen-Zhen to change her behavior? What did he do to Zhen-Zhen? Did he make her cry again?' FaMo thought to himself. He was now looking daggers at Tristan.

'I will ask Zhen-Zhen about this later,' FaMo made a mental note. He would confront Zhen-Zhen. If he learned that Tristan had hurt Zhen-Zhen's feelings once again then he would make sure to punish him with another frightening nightmare.

Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen just locked herself inside her room for the whole day. She would just go out once it was time to eat. Alice and Thomas tried to talk to her regarding Tristan's request but they failed to convince her to return home tonight.

After lunch, Zhen-Zhen went back to her room once again. Then she meditated for a few hours, cultivating her power as if she was getting ready and preparing for war.

While she was doing it, she let herself fall into the darkest abyss inside her mind. Several memories just kept flashing in her mind, especially her childhood memories.

She saw unfamiliar faces. Strangers came to their home, surrounding her and her Mo-Mo. In her innocent mind before, she couldn't understand why those people were giving them deathly glares.

Now, she understood everything. They wanted to harm her and her family. They were the guardian warriors. The elder who appeared to be the Head Shaman stepped forward among the crowd and talked to Eva.

Eva was carrying Zhen-Zhen in her arms. She looked at them with confusion. She heard about guardian warriors but this was the first time she saw them in person.

"What an honor to finally meet you, our dear mighty guardian warriors. Is there anything I can do to help you?" Eva greeted them politely but the guardian warriors just continued giving them a cold stare, ridiculing them with their eyes.

Zhen-Zhen would never forget those eyes filled with hatred- Hatred which was directed to them... to her family.

"We need your help to catch the demon god. Come with us together with your daughter to the mountain peak." The Head Shaman said to Eva. It sounded more like a command rather than a request.

Eva, who was clueless that her husband was the demon god whom they were trying to catch, followed the guardian warriors to the mountain peak. At that certain moment, Zhen-Zhen, who had the blood of the demon running in her veins, could already feel the killing intent of those people.

Her memory shifted to the fight in the mountain's peak where the guardian warriors tried to influence her mother to kill her father using the divine dagger. 

She recalled the memory where the hybrid tried to harm an innocent child, and the Head Shaman tried to plunge the dagger into her mother's chest because her mother refused to kill her father.

'No mercy! So evil!' Zhen-Zhen balled her hands into fists.

She also saw her Fa-Fa getting injured for saving her mother from the hands of the Head Shaman. Then her memory shifted to the scene in the cave where her Fa-Fa tried to protect them against the guardian warriors.

Her mother's plea echoed in her ears. The loving words of her father before he disappeared resonating in her mind right now.

Then suddenly, her mother's and her father's voice were replaced by other voices saying, "Kill her! We must kill her! She's the demon god's daughter!"

"Once she grows up she will try to avenge her parent's death. She will kill our descendants. To protect humanity, we have to kill her."

"She must die!"

"Kill her!

"Kill the demon god's daughter!"

They tried to attack the unconscious child. They started to launch an attack using their different powers and ability. But in the end, they all failed. They couldn't penetrate the protective barrier created by the demon god.

"This doesn't work. The protection spell is too powerful. The demon god sacrificed his life to create this protection. It is not easy to break this. We have to think of another way." One guardian warrior expressed his opinion.

"Let's seal her! If we can't kill her then let's make her sleep forever. As time goes by, I believe the power of the protection spell will slowly vanish. If in the future, she is still alive and all of us here are already dead then our descendants will be the ones to kill her." 

"Let's continue to train our descendants and give them the task to kill the demon god's daughter. She is a threat to humanity. She must die no matter what."

"I agree. Then we will train our children, our grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. The guardian warrior will remain and continue to strengthen their power until the day will come they have to fight and kill the demon god's daughter."

With that, the guardian warriors put her in a deep sleep. They put her in a stone coffin and sealed her in the mountain peak in which their descendants were now calling the Divine Mountain.

As she continued reminiscing these scenes, Zhen-Zhen began to release an evil aura around her. Her inner demon was becoming more powerful as time went by. She was craving blood. She started to think about revenge and killing.

After recalling those memories, the seed of hatred started to grow inside her heart, allowing her inner demon to dominate her other-self. She hated herself. She began to blame herself for being powerless at that time. She was not able to protect her family.

She even caused her father to die. She was the one who stopped him when the demon god was about to go berserk and kill all the guardian warriors inside the cave.

She knew that her father wanted to avenge her mother's death. But because of her interference, her father didn't do it.

In the end, his father chose to vanish just to make sure she would live. Since he couldn't use his power to kill as he promised to Eva that he would never kill humans again, the demon god just used his power to create a strong protection spell for her sake.

When Zhen-Zhen opened her eyes, she already decided what to do next. Her dark eyes were void of any emotions.
