Chapter 699 - He’d Rather Give Him to Xin Lan (1/2)

In the High Heavens, Tian sighed and got up from his seat next to the jade coffin, walking to the entrance. He pushed the door open and found Xiang Yu standing on the square in front of the palace. The fallen god was looking up at him with an anxious expression.

Tian's eyes narrowed and he couldn't help but curse in his mind. So many years had passed since the day Xiang Yu fell and he had actually thought that this young fallen god had come to terms with his past and his new status. But now, because these things had happened in the demon realm and that insufferable Xin Lan had turned up, Xiang Yu was once again reminded of the past, his thoughts circling around that wretched demon, his heart in an uproar, unable to calm down. It seemed somebody needed to be taught a lesson in humility. Once again.

He walked over and came to stop a step away from Xiang Yu. He made sure to calm his thoughts before he spoke up as gently as possible. ”What is the matter? Do you need something?”

Xiang Yu looked at him and lowered his gaze. ”My trial … I want to start it now.”

”Just drink the potion. No need for anything else.”

Xiang Yu nodded and looked around. ”My body …”

Tian waved his hand. ”You can choose one of the palaces. I'll make sure that nobody hurts you.” Not that anybody would dare to come and make trouble in the High Heavens.

Xiang Yu nodded but didn't go to search for a place where he could stay. His gaze darted about before he finally looked up at Tian again. ”About Yan Xiang …”

Tian furrowed his brows. ”There's no need to speak any further. Whether he has been reincarnated or not has nothing to do with you. Don't bother with him anymore.”

Xiang Yu didn't answer. He merely continued to glance around, looking pitiful. ”Can't you just tell me? I won't go to look for him. I only … want to know.”

Tian sighed. ”What's there to know? Yes, he was reincarnated. But what does it have to do with you?”

Xiang Yu's eyes glimmered with hope at these words. ”But he isn't a demon anymore?”

Tian considered and finally nodded. ”He isn't but he already has another lover. You shouldn't get involved.”
