“Why is Yunyao in her original form? Why is she hiding in the corner?” Gu Ruoyun was quite shocked. She saw how prideful Yunyao was. What had happened to prompt Yunyao to be in this situation?

　　Zixie glanced briefly at Yunyao, “No idea. She became this once she saw me.”

　　It was still acceptable before Zixie spoke. After she spoke, the White Tiger nearly exploded with fear, its huge body quaking even harder than before.

　　Gu Ruoyun believed that if there was a hole in the Ancient Divine Pagoda, Yunyao would definitely choose to hide in it.

　　At times like this, any arrogance, grace, and image were no longer Yunyao’s concern.

　　“Little girl, where exactly did you bring me to? Why is this guy here? Why?” Yunyao’s voice shook with fear. She cursed Gu Ruoyun for at least a thousand times in her heart.

　　Despicable humans, they did doom her after all.

　　They actually brought her to the place where this demon personified owns. Would she even have the chance to leave this place alive now?

　　“Who?” Gu Ruoyun was taken aback by the situation. She had no idea what Yunyao was saying.

　　“Who else?” Yunyao had originally wanted to glare at Gu Ruoyun but she bowed her head in fear when she felt the devilishly cold air around Zixie’s body. “This demon, the Ancient Phoenix Zixie! I had so much faith in you, why did you betray me? You even brought me to the devil’s side!”

　　“…”

　　Gu Ruoyun was entirely speechless. She looked at Zixie with her eyebrows raised. “What exactly did you do in the past? Why would Yunyao be so afraid of you that she would display this kind of behavior? Also, she called you as the ‘devil personified’?”

　　“Didn’t I tell you? The Four Divine Beasts combined couldn’t even put up a fight against me. That was not an estimate of my power. In fact, all those years ago, they did exactly that.”

　　Zixie shrugged offhandedly, “Then, I whacked them good. After that, they disappeared from my sight and never came back to visit.”

　　Yunyao nearly jumped at that statement. Whacked them good? Who said it was that simple? If it was just a good round of beating, the experience would not have scarred them for life. It was so bad that whenever they wanted to go out, they would first check the whereabouts of this devil personified. They would never walk the path where he was located!

　　Just as Yunyao was plotting her escape, she suddenly realized that Zixie was approaching her. She was so terrified that she nearly shot up and ran, but then again, this was the devil personified’s place, where else could she escape to?

　　“Yunyao, there are many people who want to sneak a peek at this Ancient Divine Pagoda. Now that you’ve entered this place, I’m very worried.”

　　Zixie gazed at Yunyao while smiling devilishly. That smile sent chills throughout Yunyao’s being, and she nearly suffocated in horror.

　　Now, Yunyao really regretted her decisions!

　　Why had she left that perfectly fine spiritual ocean? She had come to the place of this devil personified just because of a little temptation and she was inches away from losing her life now! If she had known, she would have chosen to recover slowly than to meet this devil personified…

　　“You… What do you want.”

　　Yunyao said between clenched teeth. Her teeth still chattered, making clacking noises as she spoke.

　　“It’s simple.” Zixie’s lips curved up to form a smile, “Two choices. One, your soul shall perish completely! Two, have a contract with her! Only then will I believe in you!”

　　Actually, Zixie had been waiting here since the beginning.

　　If he had made a sound when Gu Ruoyun and Yunyao were communicating, this little tiger would most definitely hide in the spiritual ocean and refuse to come out! Thus, he could only threaten her after Gu Ruoyun baited her out and drew her into the Ancient Divine Pagoda…
