Chapter 363 His return



Chapter 363 His return

He was surrounded by a cloud of ambivalence and power, a fast stream that surged into him and shielded him from the outside world all at once. Inside that cloud, he had a measure of peace.

As much as someone like him could hope to get because nothing mattered here. Not love or hate. All his worries and hopes evaporated. Inside the cloud was nothing, no right or wrong, just power.

Then he felt it, a mind-numbing level of panic quickly followed by fear, he felt the anger and the deep level of despair.

He knew the feelings were not his own, but they spurred a strong protective urge in him but he was loath to wake up. Living was nothing compared to the power he was consuming now, nothing held a lure to the peace he finally had.

The cloud smothered those strange emotions as he settled back into its embrace. That was when the whisper came, "please" was the only word but it was overflowing with anger, fear, and despair so strong his heart wrenched. He didn't know when his eyes sprang open, the cloud of light enveloping him exploding in a supernova to rival the sun.

Lucifer awoke, ready to do battle, he traced the pull to his soul and stepped into a plateau, a pocket dimension that only contained two people.

Without thinking he knew the one who had spoken to him, with a wave of his hand, he summoned the power to his hand and struck.

******

She had felt it, all of the supernatural realm had felt it. The energy had crashed through the entire universe even as it rippled the fabric of time.

She had felt that wave of power, pure consuming power and it had unleashed something in her, a hunger that rivalled the fear that was sweeping her body.

She didn't know what had brought him back from the edge of the abyss but she wasn't exactly surprised to feel his awakening; that was the next thing that could go wrong in a long line of others.

The first sign that things were falling apart was the blank stare Yan Mei had given her when she transformed into her demon form. Something that usually elicited tears and fear had only drawn an eye twitch for her foe, then she had actually used dark magic to counter her attacks.

They had spared and for a while Yan Mei had kept up with her, going as far as landing one lucky blow that would have destroyed her if her magic had been pure, untainted by her human nature.

Then Lei Zhao had woken up, much too fast and called the name of his wife. At that point she had panicked and escaped into the pocket dimension to score the tatters of her victory but he was here, and his anger was like a hot brand on her skin, the only thing hotter was her passion.

Without even a word of acknowledgement, he threw a spell at her. A spell aimed at utter destruction, she had dodged it and the blade of energy dispelled with minimum damage to the dimension.

"My Lord Lucifer" her words were soft, customary but her stance promised battle, there was only one reason why he was there right now, awake.

She silently cursed her hubris.

"It had to be you" he didn't sound surprised, in fact his voice was blank, the only thing that bled through was a faint disappointment and that annoyed her more than anything. To him, she ranked so low on his attention that he would rather be equated with a vaguely annoying stranger.

"You know why" her voice was harsh, laden with all the emotions she hadn't let herself give voice to, chief among them was hatred, followed closely by jealousy.

"We had a deal" he returned calmly

"Did you think I wouldn't seize the opportunity that presented itself and destroyed her?" He had to know she would try.

"I understand giving in to temptation, but I am here now, give her to me" he prompted, sure that she would mindlessly obey him in this.

"You speak as if I don't have pride, I have loved you all my days but I am also a proud demoness, she dies here." She swore and received her first reaction from him

"You don't want to provoke me!" He roared, the very air vibrating with his ire.

"No! You don't want to provoke me, she is a living breathing insult, a constant reminder of how our future was torn apart for a mere human!" She screamed right back, her chest heaving with the force of her desires

"We had a deal, she is off limits" he stayed again, as if that would change something. He knew what he had to say to make this all go away but he wouldn't lie, he was too proud to lie. That attribute lured her to him but remained the one that cut her endlessly, making her suffer but no more

"Not anymore but why do you care, where were you when I was destroying her life and making her world burn, when I intervened and made her child stillborn and turned her womb into a graveyard, where were you, doting father!" She fired at him, hoping to drive a reaction from him.

"I'm here now"

"Too late, any second now the anchors to her soul will shatter taking the life of her babies too."

"Give her to me now and all will be forgiven and forgotten, I will even give you more power in hell, I will make you my queen."

She tasted the words but she remained unsatisfied, at a point she would have gladly submitted, happily acquiesce to his superior power. But the hunger in her desired more now, nothing less than the death of Yan Mei , the death of the entire line would do for her. "While she remains alive to spoil my delight in it? No"

"You leave me no choice", he warned, his voice a vicious threat.
