"What wishful thinking? You're my woman. If we leave, we leave together. If we stay, we stay together. If I don't even have the courage to protect my woman, what kind of man am I?" I held her hand and said in a domineering manner.
This action immediately caused Witch Ye Ji to be at a loss of what to do, and she kept struggling.
"Tsk, don't talk nonsense. I'm not your woman!"
Witch Ye Ji pouted and said angrily. Even though she acted as though she was angry, I didn't know why, but I could hear a hint of sweetness in her tone.
As expected, I had to use different methods to deal with different girls. Witch Ye Ji was a wild type of girl. If I wanted to use gentle methods to influence her, it would be unrealistic. Instead, it would be easier to capture her heart if I were to be simple and rough.
"You know best in your heart whether I am or not. You just have to leave with me," I said shamelessly as I held her hand tightly.
I thought that I could move her, but who knew that she would strike me with her palm. I was caught off guard and took the hit head-on. However, Witch Ye Ji didn't use much strength. I only somersaulted twice and quickly stood up. My face was covered in dirt, and I looked rather pathetic.
"You don't need to use this trick on me. A person should know when to stop. Don't be so greedy. I've already done my best for you!" Witch Ye Ji said coldly.
"Ugh …" I was speechless against Witch Ye Ji's accusation.
Although she is a member of the Demon Path and has killed many people, through my interaction with her, I found that Witch Ye Ji's nature isn't bad. It's just that she has followed the wrong person. As matters stand, even if she realizes this, there seems to be no turning back.
Even though I was beaten, I didn't have any intention of leaving. Witch Ye Ji frowned. "If you don't leave, I'm going to make a move!"
"Come on. I have thick skin and flesh anyway. I'm not afraid of getting beaten up," I shrugged and said nonchalantly.
She looked gloomy and a sense of defeat surged in her heart. What kind of person was she? She couldn't be chased away no matter what.
"Don't make it difficult for me, okay?" Witch Ye Ji clenched her teeth.
"I only know that if I leave, it will be even more difficult for you," I said as I shook my head.
She gave me a long look, her expression complicated.
"Hehe, who are you trying to show off to when you have feelings for each other?"
Suddenly, a familiar male voice came from the cave entrance. It was filled with ridicule. Who else could it be other than the Blood Demon?
Witch Ye Ji was worried that Blood Demon and I would fight. She purposely placed him in a cave a few kilometers away. She also confirmed that Blood Demon wouldn't wake up for a while. That was why she dared to come and see me.
"Oh no …" Witch Ye Ji's pretty face turned slightly pale. She had originally used a secret technique on the Blood Demon to erase part of his memory. However, the Blood Demon's demonic arts were profound, so Witch Ye Ji did not get what she wanted. When she used the secret technique, the Blood Demon had actually woken up. He was just pretending to be unconscious. Now, she had caught him red-handed.
Actually, Witch Ye Ji wanted to go to the Great Wizard's palace, but Blood Demon rejected her. Most importantly, Blood Demon was very suspicious. Even if Witch Ye Ji offered him the demonic Blood Spirit Orb, it still couldn't dispel his worries.
As Witch Ye Ji had been by my side for a period of time, her body was tainted with my aura. It would be difficult to hide if she met someone with a higher cultivation than her.
Blood Demon interrogated her. Witch Ye Ji didn't want to tell the truth, so she was hesitant. Fortunately, Blood Demon didn't get to the bottom of the matter, but he secretly kept an eye on her.
After obtaining the Blood Spirit Bead, the Blood Demon had clearly neglected Witch Ye Ji. After a round of research, the Blood Demon had become even more furious. This was because there was a remnant of my dark power in the Blood Spirit Bead. This meant that I had activated the Blood Spirit Bead before. If I didn't have the incantation to activate it, it would be impossible for me to use it.
In other words, it was very likely that Witch Ye Ji had revealed the incantation!
Witch Ye Ji was worried that Blood Demon would be suspicious, so she specifically asked him to help her. She hoped to recover her strength as soon as possible. That way, she could become his right-hand man and dispel Blood Demon's worries. However, Witch Ye Ji's situation was more complicated. If it wasn't for the long term consumption of panaceas, her soul would have long dissipated. Normal methods wouldn't be able to help her.
Blood Demon gathered some natural treasures and then used a method called the Spirit Sacrifice Art. Together with the Blood Spirit Orb, he forcefully increased Witch Ye Ji's spiritual power. For a period of time, she could maintain a decent strength. Even her seduction technique improved because of this.
This immediate effect also brought about disadvantages that couldn't be ignored. First, Witch Ye Ji's lifespan was greatly reduced. Originally, she could stay in this world for ten years. If she was lucky and found a suitable body, she could live longer. However, after the reduction of her lifespan, Witch Ye Ji could only stay for a year. Furthermore, she couldn't take over another person's body!
Not only that, every full moon, Witch Ye Ji would suffer the pain of thousands of insects biting her heart. Once she couldn't bear it, her soul would dissipate prematurely and she would never be able to reincarnate!
Without a doubt, this was a very vicious method. In order to increase her strength, Witch Ye Ji actually understood the disadvantages. However, out of guilt towards Blood Demon, she still agreed.
This was also why when I saw her again, Witch Ye Ji's strength was even stronger than before. It could be said that she had completely given up hope of reincarnation!
Witch Ye Ji wasn't stupid. Blood Demon didn't bring her to the Grand Wizard's palace. This was a sign that he didn't trust her. After hesitating for a while, she still decided to follow closely behind. In order to not be discovered by Blood Demon, she purposely kept a distance, so she arrived at the scene later.
