"Bai Qing!"
The voice of the Child of Darkness was like thunder from a clear sky, ringing out in Qin Wentian's ears. His eyes abruptly turned in the direction of the Judiciary Priestess as great waves of shock rose up in his heart.
How could he forget this name? How familiar was this name?
Although Qin Wentian had already become a peak-level genius of the immortal realms, he would never be able to forget the purest days of his youth. How could he forget the young girl who liked to stick close to him, calling him Wentian gege?
Even after the Bai Clan betrayed him and his fiancée became a reality, that pure and innocent young girl still stood by his side. Even after she became a devil cultivator, she still stood by his side.
"The Judiciary Priestess is that lass Bai Qing?" Qin Wentian's heart trembled. He walked towards the priestess, forgetting where he was and what kind of situation he was facing now.
Given Qin Wentian's current cultivation base, he should have sufficient rationality to control the fluctuations in his heart. However, Bai Qing was simply too important to him. He had once tried to search for her in the particle world but to no avail. Now that he suddenly received news of her and she was standing right in front of him, how could he not be agitated? Even his rationality was tossed to the back of his mind.
The Judiciary Priestess also stared at Qin Wentian. Her cold eyes flashed with a hint of panic and this panic was coincidentally captured by Qin Wentian.
"Little lass Bai, is it really you?" Qin Wentian's heart trembled as he called out.
As the sound of his voice faded, the entire space turned silent again. Initially, everyone's attention was on the Child of Darkness. But at this moment, their gazes abruptly shifted to the Judiciary Priestess as well as Qin Wentian who seemed to have lost control of his emotions.
At this moment, Qin Wentian's eyes gleamed with heat, as though he was extremely agitated.
Little lass Bai?
On the Devil Mountain, only the Grand Priest of the Judiciary Devil Hall had the qualifications to refer to the Judiciary Priestess as little lass Bai.
An immortal realm expert, Wu Xiu, actually referred to the Judiciary Priestess as little lass Bai?
"They seem to know each other." The eyes of the crowd flickered, the panic in Bai Qing's eyes grew even more intense. Her beautiful eyes flickered, as though she wanted to evade.
"The Judgement Priestess is indeed impartial." At this moment, Mo Xie, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke. His gaze was incomparably cold. Back then in the Tiandao Sacred Academy, the priestess of the Judiciary Priestess had caused him to lose face to the extreme, and even caused the mission to fail. Now, he finally knew the reason why she acted.
"Back then in the Tiandao Sacred Academy, you brought people from the Judiciary Devil Hall to deal with me who is also on the Devil Mountain. How could it be because of the judgement? To think that it was actually because you have a secret relationship with this man. Right now, on the Devil Mountain, you are reprimanding another priest for being biased while pretending to be impartial. Who would have thought that …"
Mo Xie coldly laughed as he suddenly fell silent. The countenances of everyone here all changed. The Child of Darkness laughed uproariously, "What a good Judiciary Priestess. So this is the case. For the sake of a secret relationship, you acted against the Darkness Devil Hall, crippling the cultivation base of a devil king from my hall and even chasing me away. Now, the one who should be judged is you."
The people around the priestess all frowned as they berated, "Don't talk nonsense. The priestess has always been cultivating in the Judiciary Devil Hall, how could there be a secret relationship?"
As the priestess of the Judiciary Devil Hall, she was not allowed to have any secret relationships. If not, her position as the priestess would have come to an end. As a judge, she had to abide by the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign. She mustn't allow any emotions to affect her judgement. The Child of Darkness used the word 'secret relationship' to be extremely vicious.
"You already referred to her as little lass Bai Qing. In addition to what Mo Xie said, Bai Qing also acted to help this man in the Tiandao Sacred Academy. Is there a need to be more obvious?" The Child of Darkness reacted extremely quickly, coldly rebuking.
"Priestess." The gazes of those experts landed on the priestess. At this moment, the priestess' beautiful eyes were filled with emotions. She turned her head back and saw the face of anticipation on Qin Wentian's face.
The priestess stretched her hand out, placing it before her mask. After that, she slowly pulled it off, revealing a breathtaking countenance, cold and noble. This was especially so when coupled with her attire as a priestess and the blood-colored crown on her head, she appeared incomparably noble, like the daughter of a devil god.
However, when he saw this countenance, Qin Wentian's heart trembled even more violently. After that, a look of wild joy appeared in his eyes.
Although the countenance before him had changed due to the passage of time, the pure and innocent countenance of the past had become noble and cold, adding a few hints of breathtaking beauty to it. But no matter how much time flowed, she was still her. In Qin Wentian's eyes, he could still see that radiant and pure countenance of the past.
But at this moment, the cold and lofty face in front of him suddenly changed. A radiant smile appeared on his face. In that instant, the scene in front of him overlapped with the scene in his memories. Qin Wentian also smiled, his smile was exceptionally radiant.
"Wentian gege." A melodious voice rang out from the priestess. Time seemed to have returned to the past, passing through time. The woman before him was no longer the cold and noble priestess but the young girl who liked to stick by his side, the innocent and beautiful little lass Bai Qing.
As the sound of her voice faded, the countenances of the devil cultivators beside Bai Qing drastically changed. The eyes of the priest flashed with a smile, the eyes of the Child of Darkness and Mo Xie flashed with coldness. Yulong Shengtu was astonished, the experts from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall were all shocked. As for the monk Bujie, he blinked his eyes. This fellow could even meet a lover on the Devil Mountain? Wasn't this too awesome?
As one of the three supreme halls that protected the Saint Devil Hall, the priestess of the Judiciary Hall actually referred to Qin Wentian as Wentian gege. From this, one could very well imagine the commotion caused by this on the Devil Mountain.
Qin Wentian smiled. Bai Qing was still his little lass Bai Qing, she hadn't changed at all. He didn't expect that back then in the Sacred Academy, the one who silently protected him, saving Little Rascal and Qingcheng, as well as blocking Huang Shatian for him, was actually Bai Qing.
However, Qin Wentian was truly very happy. He always thought that something might have happened to Bai Qing and that he would never be able to see her again. But now, Bai Qing actually appeared in front of him alive and well. How could he not be happy?
"Judiciary Priestess, very good." The cold voice of the Child of Darkness rang out once more. However, this didn't pull Qin Wentian back from the joy of seeing Bai Qing. He smiled and walked forward, staring at Bai Qing, "Little lass Bai Qing, why did you intentionally avoid me when we were in the Tiandao Sacred Academy?"
"Wentian gege, I …" Bai Qing lowered her head, like a little girl who had done something wrong. She didn't know how to explain.
"It's fine. Seeing that you are safe and sound, your Wentian gege is already very satisfied." Qin Wentian smiled and walked forward. He stretched out his hand and rubbed Bai Qing's head, exuding a doting look. This scene caused everyone in the surroundings to be stunned but Bai Qing herself didn't seem to have any objections. She merely inclined her head and pretended to be angry as she glared at Qin Wentian. After that, a radiant smile appeared on her face.
So it turned out that reuniting with Wentian gege could be so happy. After so many years, Wentian gege still remembered her and was still so intimate with her.
Since this was the case, she was already very satisfied.
From afar, more and more experts rushed over.
"What happened?" An expert from the Darkness Devil Hall coldly asked. A devil king of their Darkness Hall was actually punished by the Judiciary Priestess. The Child of Darkness was also captured.
"For personal reasons, the Judiciary Priestess protected Wu Xiu from the immortal realms and crippled a devil king of my Darkness Hall, wanting me to never return to the Saint Devil Hall ever again." The Child of Darkness coldly spoke. Right now, he only wanted to blow up this matter to cover up his failure today. When all the spearheads were pointed at Bai Qing, he would have a chance to retreat unscathed.
"Bai Qing, should you voluntarily relinquish your position as the Judiciary Priestess?" At this moment, even the priest stared at Bai Qing as he coldly spoke. How could he miss out on such an opportunity?
Qin Wentian's expression changed. He didn't understand the Judiciary Devil Hall. Before this, he was too agitated when he heard Bai Qing's name and acknowledged her on the spot. Bai Qing also didn't hide anything. But from the looks of things now, his rash actions had caused Bai Qing to fall into an extremely unfavorable situation.
"Although I've long been acquainted with Wentian gege, the judgement I made today was done in an open and aboveboard manner. What do you mean by that? You want me to relinquish my position as the priestess of the Judiciary Hall?" Bai Qing's countenance instantly turned cold as she stared at the priest.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Qing seemed to have changed into another person, transforming back into the cold and noble priestess of the Judiciary Devil Hall.
Her beautiful eyes turned to the Child of Darkness as she spoke, "You disobeyed the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign, obstructing those who ascended the Devil Mountain from entering the Saint Devil Hall and even tried to kill them. What's sad is that you were actually defeated. It's fine if you were defeated, but as the Child of Darkness, you actually don't know any shame, allowing the devil protector to act on your behalf, wanting to kill your opponent. I banished you from the Saint Devil Hall, not allowing you to enter the Saint Devil Hall ever again. What's wrong with this judgement? Where did you get the courage to spout nonsense here?"
The countenance of the Child of Darkness drastically changed. This Bai Qing was too ruthless.
"Most probably, you aren't merely acquainted with this person, right? To be so intimate with him, he should be your lover, right? As a priestess of the Judiciary Devil Hall, you still dare to say that your judgement is fair?"
Qin Wentian coldly stared at the Child of Darkness when he heard the words of the Child of Darkness. "I followed the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign all the way up the Devil Mountain, filled with respect and veneration for him. However, I was obstructed and made things difficult for me. This is the magnanimity of the Devil Mountain. Where is the respect and veneration the people of the Devil Mountain have for the Myriad Devil Sovereign? As for you, you were incomparably arrogant earlier, but you are only able to stand here because you relied on the devil protector. If not, you would already be a dead man. Yet, you still dared to spout nonsense, slandering others to save yourself. How lamentable. The Darkness Devil Hall is one of the original four devil halls. It's truly a shame to have a Child of Darkness like you. "
"Wu, from today onwards, you are no longer the Child of Darkness of the Darkness Devil Hall." At this moment, a voice drifted over from afar. It was incomparably calm, yet it felt like this was the judgement of the Child of Darkness!
