The Light and The Shadow

Chapter 12: dream

"Dont you dare to not look at me, Hui Ying." And I kissed her. She quickly backed off and slapped me in the face.

"Betrayer." She said. Betrayer? Something must have happened before the wedding day. Did Chuntao told her something? Or Zixuan?

"Hui Ying, what's going on?" She smirked and looked evil in my eyes.

"You don't know Li Jie? Should I be frank with you? Fine! I know the whole story behind this whole wedding. You didn't marry me because you liked me. You didn't marry me because you wanted to stay with me forever. Instead, you-" This airhead really needs to shut up.

I grabbed her shoulders and pushed her on the bed. But yet she still slaps me. I don't care if she dares to slap me. But I just want her. I want her and her love. Yet she's still so silly thinking that I still like her. But how did she know? Who told her? It only could be Zixuan..and...Chuntao?! She must have said something bad...

"You jerk." And she left. I won't go after her. She'll go to me.

Weeks has passed. Demons and Devils are attacking the border. I am busy with war, and Hui Ying was nowhere to see. She's still my wife, I won't forget that. I won't look for her. I will let her go to me.

"Report!!!" Suddenly a guard came.

"What is it?"

"Your father want you to go to the Heaven and Earth platform."

"Oh? Something happened?" 

"Yes, the Devil God arrived!" The Devil God? I rushed immediatly to the Heaven and Earth platform.

To my surprise, I saw Hui Ying stuck in chains. Is she...no. She can't be the Devil God. Why would she chose evilness?

"Li Jie, much happened after the wedding. I wanted to talk to her after the wedding, but she suddenly became mad and I just saw the Devil God in her! I- I was badly wound and she tried to kill me w-with her Demonic powers..." Chuntao said. 

"Nonsense! You are making me mad of saying things that I. Don't. Like. To. Hear!" And she broke out of the chains. These were made from the Ancestral God. How did she..suddenly her eyes turned red. Is she really the Devil God...

Hui Ying

I saw Li Jie looking at me. I don't know why, but I can't control my emotions. Everytime I am getting angry, the Devil God started controlling me freely. I thought the two Goddesses told me that I am in control of the Devil God...

I do love Li Jie the most, but I know what Chuntao said was fake. I knew he wouldn't kill me for another girl. That was the past. Zixuan told me. 

"Hui Ying!!" Zixuan came. He immediatly came to my side and hugged me thight. "Are you okay?"

"I am fine, Zixuan." 

"You can control it. You are no pawn of the Devil God. I believe in you." Right. He is indeed right.

"This Devil needs to die!!" Chuntao started ganging up with all the immortal's sects. Even the Xiaoyao sect looked disappointed in me. Even the Heavenly emperor started attacking me. But Zixuan tried his best to guard me. 

"Li Jie, she's your wife. You need to handle this." Chuntao said.

"Yeah! She's right, kill her Your Majesty!" said the Xiaoyao sect. 

"Hui Ying, I am sorry to lie to you. But there is no other way to kill the Devil God. As you know, the Ancestral God and the Devil God were brothers, and he swore that the granddaughter of the Ancestral God will be his new follower."

"So old monk, you mean that the God of War is my father?"

Then I woke up. (At the time by the wedding)

Li Jie

I saw her sitting on the bed. Her eyes were closed. Suddenly a strange voice came through my head.

I stood in a empty room full of light. And I could see a man that looked exactly like me.

"Li Jie, do you regret?" He said.

"What do you mean I regret? Who are you? And why do you look like me?" I said.

"We are right now at the bottom of your heart." Bottom of my heart.. "Li Jie, don't marry her. I am warning you."

"Answer my question first. Who are you!" And I pointed a sword towards him. And he did the same aswell.

He slowly smiled. "I am..the God of War. Li Jie." the God of War? But I am already the God of War..is he..the God of War 10,000 years ago?!
