“You may trap me here and forbid me from going anywhere, but that won’t stop me from killing you. You know very well that I have yet to do so due to the time condition of the Demon’s Contract. There is no difference dying sooner or later, my master, you must be feeling awful now having to suppress my demonic power with all of your spiritual aura. Are you not afraid that I would kill you before the time is up?”
Helian Wei Wei raised her gaze and replied simply, “I’m not afraid.”
Baili Jia Jue stood in a dark corner with clouds of smoke swarming out from him continuously. This meant that he had begun to lose his patience.
Helian Wei Wei knew he meant what he said. She took another deep breath, lifted the cup to his lips and drained it into his mouth.
A demon would never reject fresh blood and human souls.
As the cold and sticky liquid in his mouth swept slowly across his gums, every pore of his body expanded excitedly, desperately consuming the nutrients from the liquid.
This was Baili Jia Jue’s current disposition.
As he narrowed his eyes in enjoyment, his pallid fingers seemed more translucent than ever.
Flourished by fresh crimson blood, his sinisterly beautiful face looked fully demonic now.
He raised his head with the blood bag between his lips. His silver hair was growing longer and longer until it was all over the ground. This was the second stage of demonization.
Baili Jia Jue’s blood-stained eyes watched Helian Wei Wei who was right in front of him. His gaze was deep in gloom and confusion.
He understood that the wild gene encoded in his blood was awakening.
However, he could not fathom why this person was protecting him. She was about to be devoured, yet she still behaved impassively.
“Are you cold?” She extended her arms around him once more. She was like a persistent cockroach, her eyes observing him seriously.
Baili Jia Jue’s gaze dropped on Helian Wei Wei’s lips, “You should be the one feeling cold, my master. You seem to have forgotten that I am a demon, a demon has no body temperature.”
Helian Wei Wei regarded him earnestly. “As you said, I’m suppressing you with my spiritual aura so naturally I am experiencing some altitude sickness. But feeling cold is better than running out of oxygen. This land is the most fascinating place in our country, some people arrive here before they die to have a sky burial. When I was young, my father had an affair, my mother killed herself and my inheritance was taken away. My father dumped me in boarding school out of guilt, but I have never liked it overseas, it was far too lonely. Young Master Tang told me about the highland snow mountains after I got to know him, so I’ve been wanting to see it myself. If you go further down you will see a lot of bald eagles that survive on human flesh. If you end up consuming my soul, leave my body here so I can have a sky burial. I don’t want to leave this place.”
“Your body is mine too.” Baili Jia Jue had a displeased expression. “It would be better for you to be eaten by me than by such nasty things.”
Helian Wei Wei smiled lightly. “You are right, so can I hug you to sleep? I have been taking care of you since yesterday, I am exhausted. Since you have no body warmth, cuddling you would be more comfortable.”
Baili Jia Jue did not say no to Helian Wei Wei this time.
That was because a demon had an unyielding loyalty to its master.
Furthermore, like what she said, Baili Jia Jue disliked the cold here. If he could hold a warm body to sleep, that was better than sitting alone in a corner.
Upon his consent, Helian Wei Wei dragged a blanket over and wrapped the both of them into the fluffy wooden coffin.
Outside the tent, only the cold wind of Hoh Xil could be heard. It was probably snowing now, everything was very quiet.
Helian Wei Wei tightened the blanket again and nestled into Baili Jia Jue arms as she began to hum gently.
If heaven and earth were worthy of praise.
It was because your presence made it celebratory.

The world is bigger and fuzzier than you imagine.
I cannot bear to fool you more, I only wish for your understanding.
There was no one like you even within the three realms.
Baili Jia Jue listened closely to the clear voice by his ear and embraced Helian Wei Wei. He was certain that she would be the first soul he would remember after feasting on her.
He had found himself a prized possession.
Whatever she did could not upset him. She also had a soothing voice that made him feel comfortable.
She was smart to have prepared so much blood and brought him to the depths of an empty glacier.
This had a good effect on suppressing his demonic power.
However, these were the things he hated the most.
He wondered how he had found such a soul to begin with, it frustrated him to kill her.
Frustration?
He had not felt that way for a long time.
Thousands of years ago, he regarded the human realm with an attitude that was more detached than gods. He was capricious and as fickle as the moon.
Nonetheless, he quickly grew tired of power and authority, mortality and earthly treasures, long dark nights and the submissiveness of people around him.
He was never a human, human mortality and issues of life, death, illness and old age never concerned him. The sufferings mentioned by Buddhism of encountering the unpleasant, separation from what was pleasant and not getting what one wanted.
Food was still best when served warm.
Baili Jia Jue licked his thin lips, yet a light flare flashed across his eyes.
Helian Wei Wei seemed to have sensed something as well, she opened her eyes abruptly and stood up. “You stay here, I’ll go take a look.”
“People from Buddhism are here, I can smell their aura.” Baili Jia Jue blocked in front of her sinisterly. “Do you think I would let you go so lightly? So that you can unite with them to fight against me? It is daytime now. If you betrayed me, I would be in deep trouble.”
Helian Wei Wei grinned.
While he was still puzzled by her smile, she had tipped her toes to kiss him on the lips. “Wait for me here.”
Baili Jia Jue felt like grabbing this woman’s wrist. For a brief moment, he did not know if he was concerned about her betrayal or that he might never see her again.
But very quickly he smirked. Once the time was up, the contract would take effect. No matter where his master would be, her demon could sense her presence and devour her there. There was no need to worry.
At the thought of that, he clutched the blood bag in his hand tightly.
Clatter!
The teacup shattered, Baili Jia Jue supported his forehead with one hand as fresh blood dripped on the ground from his fingertips.
Then there was a low laugh that sounded like the devil’s Sanskrit echoing in the tent. “That’s fine. If she doesn’t come back, chooses to betray me or to escape, I can chomp down on her throat once it gets dark.”
