With a clear plan of attack in her mind, she began laying down the initial steps to it.

She materialized her tao zhu sword but put it under an invisibility spell. Pulling it up to her face, she sent it hurtling out towards the infamous demon tearing towards her. The sword caught hei an in the shoulder and pulled him back by many miles. While he was getting thrown back by her tao zhu, she pulled up another shield in place of the external barrier and sealed it. Now, the demons were effectively trapped between her two red walls that had very little space between them. Some of the larger demons had been swallowed by the shields the moment her two walls went up making them effectively stronger. Looking down at the trapped demons, she laughed out in cold dry humor and called out in an amused yet hard voice, "try escaping now."

With the demonic army handled, for now, she called back her sword. As it appeared back in her hands, she didn't lift the invisibility spell from it and hid it in her sleeve, at ready. With the outer barrier behind her, she was facing hei an, a few miles ahead of her, roaring in pain. She let out a dry laugh again, calling out to him, "aww, is the little baby crying? Did my itty-bitty blade hurt you?"

Roaring in anger this time, he shouted, "you dare laugh at me? Don't you know who I am? "

"Are you not a little baby crying at a small scratch?" She taunted him.

"wait, you insolent child, I'll show you pain." He roared back and barrelled towards her.

As he came running towards her, she stood exactly where she was with her hands behind her and a loud smirk on her face. She was taunting him with her humor. She stood perfectly still waiting for him and at the very last moment before he reached her, she disappeared. He pulled himself to a stop and looked around to find her when he heard that same taunting laugh behind him. He turned to find her several miles behind him, exactly opposite to the place she had stood in a few minutes ago.

"is the little baby boy hurt again? Little baby boys should not try to run; they tend to fall too easily. Then they cry and make a fuss about it," she shook her head in exasperation, "they never learn, even when they are all grown up. Men."

"you insolent child, who are you calling a baby. I am a man, all man"

"Ohh, are you? I do not believe it." She shrugged her shoulders.

"you will know when I tear you up piece by piece." With that he barrelled towards her again at full speed.

Again, she stood perfectly still smirking at him and the very last moment before he reached her, she disappeared. She stood several miles behind him, laughing as he stopped himself from tripping.

"oh oh, don't fall down." She called out to him.

As he turned back towards her, with pure rage on his face, she continued, "and you said you were all man. Huh so funny. You just proved my point that you are a silly little baby boy."

"I will show you what I am. Just you wait till the moment I catch you" with that said he barrelled towards her again.

Again, Feng jiu waited till the last moment before disappearing behind him.

"and what will you do when you catch me?"

"I will tear you to pieces." He said and took off in her direction.

Again, she disappeared behind him. Laughing and taunting him, she kept doing this for hours.

"you know, I agree with you. You are not a little baby boy. You are just plain stupid. "she laughed out behind him as he caught himself from tripping down again.

He roared back, "you dare call me stupid, you insolent child."

"it's not daring if it is true. You are pretty stupid."
