The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  Before she managed to understand her own feelings, her thin lips were fully covered with another person's breath.

  The unique sandalwood scent of the man pervaded her oral cavity.

  Phoenix's eyes were wide open!

  She could only stare at him blankly, as the man narrowed his eyes. His eyelashes were shivering, his tall nose was pressing against hers, and a lively smile appeared at the corner of his eyes and brows...

  Chapter 823 - Love Always Began With Destruction

  He even used his hand to hold her head while kissing her hard and invading her bit by bit.

  The man was not his usual self.

  Phoenix found herself almost running out of breath and white snowflakes were wafting through her mind. Not once had she experienced this kind of feeling before.

  All oxygen had been taken away, her c.h.e.s.t was being pressured, the stocky figure on top of her was getting hotter and hotter as if it was going to incinerate her.

  Tingling sensation slowly built up at the tip of their tongue as they kissed, that was when he slightly distanced himself. His voice sounded husky, "How do you feel?"

  Feel?

  Subconsciously, Phoenix wanted to refuse this level of intimacy.

  However, her arms were being firmly confined by the man.

  He stared at her for a brief moment while she was catching her breath, his hand then explored downward below her chin.

  The cassock worn by Phoenix was oversized, so it was very convenient for the man to do so.

  "This is the first time I find Buddhism's clothes to be nice," The man laughed and his lips were against her ears. With the tip of his tongue, he first touched it lightly, then slowly made his way down...

  Phoenix felt a tingle, then her body stiffened up. Heat flow passed through her body like an electric current and she started to wiggle involuntarily in the heated quilt. She could not allow him to exceed her limits any further, so she grabbed his wrist, but she was quite out of breath, "This feels weird, I suppose this is enough for practice purposes."

  "Enough?" The man c.a.r.e.s.sed her skin, it was so soft and tender as though his hands were being absorbed into her skin. How could this sensation ever be enough?

  Phoenix looked at him, "Yes, that's enough."

  "Alright." The man let go of his hands, then laughed with a playful expression. He gently patted her back with his fingers as though he were treating a pet, "That's enough for today, we will practice again tomorrow." Phoenix is such an interesting girl, of course I should savor her slowly...

  Phoenix could feel that something was being pushed against her long legs. It was burning hot and somehow it made her feel uncomfortable.

  However, since young, no one had ever hugged her to sleep.

  For as long as Phoenix could remember, she was already reciting sutras at Mountain Tenya.

  She remembered the time when everyone around her would always give her a peculiar look.

  This had to do with the fact that there was no other kid as young as her in Buddhism, except for those little monks and shamis.

  The Honored Sir held her hand and introduced her to everyone.

  "So she's the Phoenix."

  "Which Phoenix?"

  "The Phoenix who was born in hell, the Phoenix who represents a bad omen."

  "Why would Phoenix be a bad omen?"

  That's right, Phoenix had the same thought, why would I be a bad omen?

  By that time, little Phoenix had learned to chant and thus understood what a bad omen was.

  An existence that was neither anticipated nor liked by others.

  Her speculation seemed to be justified in later days, as no one would even talk to her.

  The little Phoenix from Mountain Tenya had always been alone.

  She stayed quiet and never spoke to anyone, not to mention making friends.

  She had seen little shamis who were close with each other slept together while playing along, everyone looked so happy.

  To be honest, being hugged by someone felt really warm, as though an invisible Qi was surrounding her inside the tightly tucked quilt. In fact, the man who was patting her back looked extremely handsome.

  Phoenix felt that this was her lucky day, she reached out her hands as well and hugged the man's waist, she muttered, "The manual given by Yue Lao is pretty good."

  The man lowered his head and looked at the girl in his arms, he laughed, "Pretty good indeed. What are you thinking about just now?"

  "Nothing much." Phoenix turned her head to the side, "I was thinking about the moment when I was born. I guess you know that I was born in hell, people said there were two eggs at the very beginning, but when the eggs were hatched, I was the only one left."

  The man gave out an ambiguous smile, "Are you trying to say that the moment when you were born, 33 Thunderstorms and Heavenly Tribulations had been cast on the Sea of Blood, and therefore you were born with the face of great evil?"

  "Yes." Phoenix closed her eyes as if she was about to fall asleep.

  The man reached out his hand and removed the strains of hair which was blocking her face, his tone was light, "If you weren't born with the face of great evil, Buddhism would be useless. These people needed someone to hold the knife, enabling them to offer salvation to sentient beings. In that case, good or evil, they shouldn't be the ones to decide."

  Upon listening to the last sentence, Phoenix opened her eyes again and within those eyes were countless shimmering stars, "You're right."

  "Are you happy?" The man chuckled.

  Phoenix sat up, "Kind of. Why don't we continue feeding the monsters with fish food, or put up a fight?"

  Demons and monsters, ...Is this supposed to be the way you express your happiness!!!!?

  Just that they had no idea what the Emperor was up to.

  They had never seen the man indulged someone like how he indulged Phoenix.

  Could it be that he was actually being sincere?

  That was kind of impossible.

  They knew what this man wanted, there would not be much excitement left once he got it. He had always been like that.

  Indeed, that was exactly what the man was intending to do, although the way he treated Phoenix was different from the others.

  The thing that he wanted had never changed, which was to completely destroy the pride of this proud person.

  It was not the time yet, her eyes were not completely focusing on him yet.

  The man would never forget the time when he first met Phoenix.

  But she had the looks of a teenager.

  In an effort to convert him to Buddhism, they had him locked up in the restricted area of Trayastrimsa heaven.

  He would suffer from piercing pain even if he merely sneered at the sanskrits.

  However, these could not make him surrender.

  He shattered the Shield of Leiyin as blood ran all over him. The Honored Sir had to retreat in the face of difficulties, which subsequently caused a turmoil amongst the clouds.

  For 49 days.

  As long as he could withstand the bone-rasping pain inflicted by the sanskrits.

  He would no longer be under the control of Buddhism.

  On the 47th day, he met her.

  She was holding a sutra, looking at him with her head tilted. Then, she knelt down beside him and glanced at him twice before asking, "Why do you have to kneel here?"

  He ignored her. He never gave a spare glance toward people from Buddhism, not to mention a kid.

  She remained quiet, then ran away after a while. When she reappeared, she had a steamed bun in her hand.

  Then, he had not earned the title of God. Coming out from the chaos, he would easily get hungry, but he did not expect that someone inside Buddhism would dare to give him food.

  Being apathetic, he did not care about the punishment that would befall her for breaking the precepts of Buddhism. He would eat whatever that was given to him.

  On the 49th day, he broke through the Light of Buddha and no
thing in the world could ever restrain him since then.

  She was merely a sharp blade of Buddhism, thus he did not take it to heart.

  However, by the time he met her again, the only thing she could see was the Bodhi tree. On the other hand, whenever she passed by him, she would have her scythe in hand, along with this stone-cold look.

  The man had to admit, he had always been impatient.

  Since he was nothing to her, he would destroy her pride...

  Chapter 824 - Phoenix Doesn’t Like You

  The next day, news regarding Phoenix's arrival in Tian Dao got about.

  All immortals were gathered together to discuss matters concerning Tian Dao and from time to time, they would take a peep at the Emperor who was sitting on the throne.

  When the crowd dismissed, the elderly who planned to introduce the Snow Mountain Goddess to the Emperor approached him and asked carefully, "Emperor, I heard that Phoenix went to see you last night?"

  "Yes." The man took a glance at the elderly. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips as he recalled Phoenix's words from yesterday, "What's the matter?"

  Since the Emperor had spoken up, the elderly did not dawdle to avoid being pretentious, "Was Phoenix there to pick a fight with Your Highness? Who won the fight at last? Please don't get me wrong, Emperor. I just thought that the Sea of Blood had just been cleared, it's not a suitable time to have fights within Buddhism."

  The elderly added on with an explanation at the end of his speech, fearing that the Emperor would misunderstand him.

  "Who told you that she was here to pick a fight with me?" The man sat with his legs crossed as he curled his lower lip while facing the elderly.

  The elderly could not figure out the emotions behind his posture. However, other than picking a fight, the elderly had no idea why Phoenix would come looking for the Emperor.

  Buddhism would not tolerate the Emperor for bringing demons and monsters to Mountain Tenya on a frequent basis.

  It was reasonable for them to send Phoenix over to wipe them out.

  So…

  "If it's not about a fight, then what was it?" The elderly asked in disbelief.

  At that, the other immortals slowed down their pace in the hope of some gossip.

  The man stood up and walked up to the elderly with his slender legs, "As my fiancé, she was here to strengthen our bond."

  The elderly almost choked himself to death on his own saliva. He spoke in complete shock, "Strengthening bonds? Fiancé?!" This was even scarier than meeting their doom!

  The Emperor darted a look at him, "What's wrong? Don't you know about the news that we got together on the day of the feast?"

  "Isn't that's just a rumor?" The elderly had not taken that matter seriously.

  The Emperor curled his thin lips, appearing to be charming in an evil way, "It's not a rumor, she is currently staying in my royal chamber."

  It was at that moment that the Great Hall went into turmoil.

  The immortals who were about to leave stopped their steps and started engaging in active conversation, "What the Emperor said just now can't be true?!"

  "It seems very likely to be true, the Emperor would never joke about this sort of thing."

  "But from what I've heard, Phoenix was carrying her weapon when she arrived yesterday?"

  "I'm not sure about that, but it doesn't matter what Phoenix had brought, the point is that she is now staying with the Emperor!"

  The man did not mind the discussion going around him, in fact, he was actually enjoying the scene. From today onward, no one would come and trouble him with anymore matchmaking. Moreover, no matter if it was Tian Dao or Buddhism, everyone would know that Phoenix now belonged to him.

  He could not bear it anymore. As the man stepped out of Heaven, he chased after him.

  "Emperor, Emperor, please wait for me." It was physically draining for Yue Lao to keep up with the man.

  The man stopped the cloud drift beneath him. Emotionlessly, he took a quick glance at Yue Lao and a sense of superiority was spotted in his eyes.

  Yue Lao knew that some things were better left unsaid. His brain was buzzing after the Emperor looked at him that way, even his voice turned weak, "The thing that Emperor had taken from me isn't meant to be used casually, especially, especially on Phoenix."

  "Yue Lao." The man turned his head around. Although he kept a smile on his face, his eyes were cold, the air was suddenly filled with murderous reek, "Do you know what would be the fate of a Matchmaking God who lost his Red Strings due to alcoholism?"

  Yue Lao could sense the threat in the man's words and cold sweat broke out from his forehead, "Emperor, not that I want to stand in your way, but this marriage is not like the others. Phoenix is meant to stay in Buddhism, besides, she doesn't like you, Emperor. It would be pointless for Emperor to tie a Red String on her hand."

  "Pointless?" The man sneered, then he reached out his hand and patted Yue Lao on his shoulder, "It's up to me to decide whether it's pointless, you don't have to worry about it."

  Yue Lao was getting anxious, "Emperor! I guess Emperor isn't fond of Phoenix as well, Emperor finds her interesting only because she was different from the rest. However, it's a different story when it comes to others. Emperor should have known about the Bodhi at Mountain Tenya, the Bodhi has responded because of Phoenix. 500 years later, the Bodhi in front of the Buddha's gate would transform into a Buddha from a human state. He is the only one who is genuine to Phoenix. So, so for the sake of others, I hope Emperor could return the Red String to me!"

  Upon listening to the last sentence.

  Yet, it was hard to take one's eyes off him.

  Yue Lao gave the man an eager look.

  However, the man responded with a laugh of indescribable elegance and evilness, "I do hope to give it back to you, but unfortunately…" He lifted the empty bag in his hand as he spoke, "It's too late."

  "Your Highness really did use the Red String on her!" Yue Lao's heart was pounding crazily, his ears could no longer hear any sound coming from the surroundings.

  The man withdrew his hand. Standing with a graceful posture in his purple yarn and white robe, he seemed to be the only scenery in Tian Dao.

  "Yue Lao, since we have come to this, if you and I both keep it to ourselves, no one would know where the Red String has been used. I don't want anyone to know about this, otherwise, this would not be my first time killing a god."

  Yue Lao could only feel the sweat on his back. Not only did the Emperor used the Red String, he even tied it with a dead knot.

  What the Emperor said was right.

  This thing should not be known by anyone else.

  Yue Lao had matchmade a lot of couples and knew quite a number of gods and fairies. He had always been compassionate with the couples in the world.

  Although Phoenix was ranked first among the Buddhas, she was still considered a foreigner in Buddhism.

  In most circ.u.mstances, humans were never friendly toward those who were different from them.

  It would be fine if these two were just having fun, but they definitely should not fall in love with each other.

  The reason was that Buddhism would never allow Phoenix, one who was meant to offer salvation to sentient beings, to have any personal feelings.

  Thus, the matter about the Red String should never be exposed!

  The Emperor was not in a good mood.

  The little deities that came forward to greet him could sense his aura once the door was opened.

  Though the Emperor did not say a thing and continued to wear a smile on his face, chillness came in between his thin lips.

  "Emperor." An immortal greeted with a trembling voice.

  The man glanced at him carelessly, "Where's Phoenix?"

  Chapter 825 - To Get Her

  "Ah, Lord Phoenix." Another immortal gave himself a knock on the head before replying respectfully, "Lord Phoenix went back to Buddhism as she said she has to water the plant. She'll be back at ni
ght."

  The man narrowed his eyes, "Water the plant? For the Bodhi?"

  "Yes." The fairy nodded.

  At that moment, the demons that were following the man could clearly feel the coldness emitted from the back of the man.

  No one dared to move, or even to make any sound.

  Until the man spoke again with a cold tone, "I see, you all may leave."

  "Yes." The two immortals felt relieved. They looked at each other, held their hands and continued their task as bell boys.

  Yet at this moment, as the man clenched his fist, thin gray fog soon covered the sky above Tian Dao.

  The man took a step forward, the words of Yue Lao then echoed in his ears.

  "Phoenix doesn't like you, Emperor. It would be pointless for Emperor to tie a Red String on her hand."

  "Emperor should have known about the Bodhi at Mountain Tenya, the Bodhi has responded because of Phoenix."

  "500 years later, the Bodhi in front of the Buddha's gate would transform into a Buddha from a human state. He is the only one who is genuine to Phoenix..."

  The demons behind the man did not understand why the Emperor had stopped his steps abruptly, but at that instant, the mythical tree next to him fell down as if someone had vented his anger on it. The sound was so loud that even the Stargazing Palace located more than ten meters away felt the shock.

  However, the man only stood calmly amongst the flying dust. As his long sleeves swayed in the wind, his laughter was heard. The man who had been putting on a front as a gentle and elegant person instantly turned into an evil and fearsome man, "It seemed like what I have done isn't enough. Otherwise, how could she have the time to water the Bodhi tree again."

  Needless to say, the demons knew who was the 'she' mentioned by the Emperor. All of them tightened their nerves and were afraid to speak.

  Nonetheless, this feeling of loneliness disappeared within seconds. The man curved his pretty thin lips in a flash, "Since she left without saying a word, I have no choice but to try my best and break her Dharma, what do you all think?"
