My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses Chapter 123 A REWARD PART 11

Xue Lin asked, "What are you doing here? I'm pretty sure I put you in jail. You were supposed to stay there for twenty years. It's not even five years since I saw your doom."

He tilted his head. "I see you are not surprised. Were you expecting me?... That can't be true…"

"There is no way in h.e.l.l I will expect you to stand before me." Xue Lin showed a disgusting expression. "So, how on earth you got released from the prison?"

"Because I'm blessed." He clasped his hands together as if praying and continued, "I prayed to Satan every day and he heard my prayer. I was saved by him and rewarded with wealth for being patient."

"Bless? Haha…" Xue Lin laughed dryly. There was no amus.e.m.e.nt in her laugh. "What a joke. How can the devil give blessings? Shouldn't it be a curse?"

He pointed a finger at her and roared, "You dare to insult Satan! Do you think you can get away from me after I have caught you? When I was in jail, I was waiting patiently for this day to come. I wished you to be under my feet. I told Satan my wish and he fulfilled it. Now you are in my hand. You better say your prayers."

Xue Lin shook her head helplessly. "You are such an ungrateful, poor, pathetic child. Your life was given by the Almighty and you've decided to wors.h.i.+p His enemy. I don't even feel like praying to G.o.d to forgive your poor soul. It's rotten. I can smell it."

Xue Lin's mouth was hurting. She was talking this whole day and her head was still throbbing because of the sudden strike. All she could do was buy some time.

If Ge Chen calls her and she doesn't answer his calls, he will certainly worry about her – that's what she is planning. However, if her plan doesn't work, she doesn't know what to do. Last time she had two friends with her. This time, she is alone.

"You… who killed my whole family and my relatives… how dare you say that I'm rotten when you are the murderer?!" The guy gritted his teeth. His face was so viciously ugly that Xue Lin didn't want to look at him anymore in case she had nightmares later on.

"Here's a correction. I and my friends did not kill anyone. It's that old man of yours who went to the house with his burning body. We are innocent." Xue Lin showed an innocent expression.

"You ruined us!" He shouted.

"If you didn't harm my teachers and cla.s.smates, we would have left without a word." Xue Lin defended herself. She was saying half-truth. Though they would have left without a word, they would have still contacted the police.

"I will show you what happens if you defy Satan!" He stepped forward and reached out to her. Xue Lin quickly stepped back and her back touched the cold wall. She shuddered. Where will she go now?

"Careful Balthazar, don't harm her. She is mine." Puja came inside the room and calmly looked at them.

Xue Lin looked at the guy in front of her. "Balthazar? Your name is Balthazar? How funny! Do you know it's the name of an angel?"

"Seeing you calm makes me delighted," Puja smirked.

Xue Lin didn't even look at her. She was looking at the guy in front of her. The guy obeyed Puja and moved away showing respect. Xue Lin raised an eyebrow. She tried to understand the relations.h.i.+p between them.

Puja steadily came closer. "Xiao Lin, are you mad at me for tricking you? But you left me with no choice. It's so hard to find you."

Xue Lin finally looked at her coldly. "What do you mean by that? I don't think I have ever done anything to make you look for me."

"Not Puja… but me…" Puja's color of eyes changed into black and some black marks appeared on her face.

"…Let me guess… a demon." Xue Lin let out a laugh. She looked around to see if there was any hidden camera and if it was a TV show.

Puja aka the demon tilted her head and then used her power to move Xue Lin's body.

Xue Lin noticed that her body was rising without her movement. She looked down in horror and saw that her legs weren't touching the ground. She said, "Hold on, Miss Demon. Who are you and what did I ever do to you to make you look for me?"

The smile from Puja's face disappeared. "You don't remember me? I'm shocked. I was summoned on the earth five years ago and was given human souls but you ruined it."

"Ah, it was you. My apologies." Xue Lin recalled the fire body. After realizing that her life was in that demon's hand, Xue Lin automatically became polite. She didn't even notice it herself. 'She looks scarier when she doesn't smile.' She thought. She asked, "So what's your name?"

"I or we are known by many names." It's not a voice of Puja anymore. It sounded multiple voices of men and women.

Xue Lin said softly, "Give me only one name. I have a problem with memorizing people's names."

Puja said, "The name is Legion."

Apparently, Legion is a demon or group of demons, particularly those in two of three versions of the exorcism of the Gerasene demoniac, an account in the New Testament of an incident in which Jesus performs an exorcism.

The earliest version of this story exists in the Gospel of Mark, described as taking place in "the country of the Gerasenes". Jesus encounters a possessed man and calls on the demon to emerge, demanding to know its name – an important element of traditional exorcism practice. He finds the man is possessed by a mult.i.tude of demons who give the collective name of "Legion". Fearing that Jesus will drive them out of the world and into the abyss, they beg him instead to send them into a herd of pigs, which he does. The pigs then rush into the sea and are drowned (Mark 5:1–5:13).

'Oh c.r.a.p!' Xue Lin started to sweat. Legion is not only well-known but also one of the most powerful demons.
