Chapter 1012 Betrayal?
“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 . ”
