Qingyi spoke with Tianjin for just a brief moment longer, until Akane finally left the realm of the mind.
Up until then, she had still been getting used to the sensation of her body standing fully at the peak of the Celestial Emperor realm.
She appeared right beside Qingyi, already seated in the chair to his right, as if she had been there all along.
She was as beautiful as ever. Her elegant kimono, however, was now fastened far more conservatively, covering what had previously been left exposed, and her blood-red lips curved into a refined smile.
Her legs were crossed with easy grace, and she made no effort whatsoever to hide her demonic aura, much less her current cultivation level.
Of course, that aura was nothing like that of any other demon.
Where the aura of ordinary demons was impure, filthy, and putrid, Akane's was even purer than Tianjin's own.
That was the true demonic path.
