Chapter 834: A Game

Their relationship seemed to improve tremendously .

Everyone knew that Phoenix was the apple of the Emperor’s eye but some individuals were still tempted to take her place .

The Venerable on the lotus summoned Phoenix to the Formless Realm .

When the Sakyamuni Buddha went into seclusion, the True Buddha would have to go through the Buddhist Kalpa that happened once every ten thousand years to reclaim his position .

Thus, Phoenix had been responsible for clearing all the wrongdoings during this period of time .

There was no exception this time .

Phoenix held her scythe and stood amidst the floating clouds in the Hall of Great Strength as she listened quietly to the profound changes happening in the Netherworld .

“The Sea of Blood in Hell has risen again . Phoenix, it’s your turn to go this time, do not lose out to the Celestial Path again . ” The Venerable spoke to her while murmuring Amitabha .

The True Buddha could only return when the Sea of Blood had been cleared .

Phoenix understood this clearly . She always felt grateful toward the True Buddha who had led her to Buddhism from Hell .

As a result of her sense of gratitude, Phoenix always executed every task entrusted to her without any excuses .

However, this time…

Phoenix laid her eyes on her scythe .

If this happened in the past, she would have gone to Hell instantly without hesitation .

However, she had yet to recover the power of Buddha fully at this moment . The odds were against her if she had to clear the Sea of Blood alone .

Phoenix was well aware of this so she did not go to Hell right away .

The Sea of Blood was the accumulation of the blood and resentment released when the most ferocious demons of the world fought one another .

The Sea of Blood could only be cleared by killing or capturing all the demons like what the Emperor did .

However, capturing the demons was easier said than done . If one lacked willpower, the tables might be turned instead .

Phoenix wondered if he could borrow the Emperor’s mythical ax, but instead, she found that he was not in the temple .

The immortal guarding the temple entrance told her that a witch from the magical realm had attained immortality, thus a celebratory banquet was being held by Tian Dao . Those from Buddhism had gone to send their regards as well . “Lord Phoenix, did the Emperor not invite you to the banquet?” the immortal asked .

Phoenix had not heard anything about any banquet . But the Emperor had mentioned that he did not want her to be exposed to the public . He would rather hide her from their sights .

“Since he is not here in the temple, I shall go look for him at the heavenly banquet . ”

Her task could not be delayed so Phoenix did not linger in the temple . When she arrived at the heavenly banquet, she saw many goddesses sitting among the clouds . They started whispering among themselves once they saw Phoenix .

“Phoenix still doesn’t know yet, right?”

“I bet she doesn’t . If she knew, she probably wouldn’t be as calm now . ”

“Poor thing . Tsk tsk, who would have guessed that the witch and the emperor were predestined to meet? She said she had known him since they were in the magical realm . ”

“Based on the Emperor’s character, he is likely to abandon the old for the new . Even though the witch is not as beautiful as Phoenix, they are both wild spirited . Hence, it would not be a surprise if the Emperor is interested in the witch as well . ”

Phoenix looked up casually as she listened to their conversation . Standing beside the emperor was a woman cloaked in red . She was beautiful and she resembled the Golden Lotus slightly, though she was fierier . There was joy in her eyes as she lowered her head and spoke to the man .

A match made in heaven .

The moment she saw them, these words came into her mind naturally .

They seemed to be close to each other .

Phoenix was stunned for a moment but she did not go forward . She concealed her aura from the edge of the clouds .

The heavenly banquet seemed to be coming to an end . It was not the right timing for her to meet the Emperor as he was talking to someone . Furthermore, the matter of borrowing the mythical ax was not something to be discussed in public .

She resorted to sitting behind the stone steps as she closed her eyes and waited for the Emperor to pass by .

As expected, the immortals could be heard sending the guests off after a while .

Phoenix was about to stand up when she heard the crown prince’s laughter . “Emperor, another witch falls for you . You even have the one from Buddhism in your clutches . This is no fun, you are winning every bet . ”

What the crown prince said was nonsensical, but it made Phoenix freeze in action . She knew she should go out immediately or leave as if she had never been here before . However, her legs felt like lead and she felt heavy to move .

A sigh of Buddhism seemed to appear in her mind again .

Phoenix felt tired all of a sudden .

However, the voice constantly spread to her ears .

It was such a familiar voice, yet it was giving her chills right now .

“Whatever I want…there is no way I cannot get it . ” The man smiled faintly, his long narrow eyes were glittering .

His tone was so light, yet it made the crown prince’s feel a shiver running down his spine . The crown prince smirked as he said, “Phoenix merely forgot how you looked when you were a youth, and she was just a little less enthusiastic than usual . Do you have to punish her like that? I know you are a vengeful person, every time you get hurt you will make sure to pay it back tenfold . But isn’t it a bit harsh to dump her after you have made her fall in love with you? Phoenix seems to like you a lot, what are you planning to tell her about the immortal witch today?

“What does this have to do with you?” The man laughed, he seemed to be in a good mood with the pair of vicious eyes looking seductive and alluring . He was like a deadly cliff that women could not help but throw themselves into…and fall to their death with broken hearts .

Their conversation made Phoenix grip the stone pillar in front of her with trembling hands . No one could see it but her lips curled upward very slowly . It was not a smile at all for her eyes were ice-cold .

So, this is the truth .

It turned out she was the only one who was obsessed with the manual .

She thought the other party was committed to it, but it was just a game to him .

He could stop and leave anytime he wanted, as long as he found someone whom he was more interested in .

She thought they were a loving couple, but in fact, she was just one of the women he wanted to conquer .

Has the proud Phoenix turned out to be the biggest id*ot in the world?

Hah, when I was moaning in his arms, when I was listening to his heartbeat in between cuddles, he must have been thinking how easy it was to tackle me .

Has he ever said he loved me?

No .

Everything is clear now .

It is all too obvious .

At that moment, not only did she lose her dignity, but she also lost her prideful heart that she had surrendered willingly to him .

Phoenix closed her eyes again . Her heart still ached, yet she merely rubbed her chest casually…
