The heaven granted his wish

The night was lovely and people were happy enjoying the festival to their heart's content. Some were lightning or appreciating lanterns while others were wrestling with lantern riddles. Restaurants in the villages were crowded with people. And anyone could tell tonight best selling dish would be tangyuan or probably yuanxiao.

Villages were small but there were everything for one to enjoy. Everybody could do anything which were supposed to do at a lantern festival. There were children's giggles. There were noises of occasional jokes followed by series of laughters. Sometimes you could even hear triumphant roars and people's clapping when some of the villagers got the right answer to lantern riddles.

Just as everybody was doing their job participating in the festival, Zhang Long Wei was also doing a demon's job- sitting leisurely on top of a pavilion and thinking everything in the world was an eyesore.

Tossing another peanut into his mouth, Zhang Long Wei swept his gaze over lively and crowded streets. He was wearing a black robe tonight and not in his usual snow-white sect uniform anymore.

Snow-white.....Zhang Long Wei didn't think this colour suited him at all. Everytime one saw him in his old days as the supreme lord, whatever extravagant or luxury attires he had dressed into, they would always be one of these three colours; black, dark purple or dark blue.

Jianyu sect allowed its disciples to wear any casual attires at the night of catch and run game. In fact, disciples were just not allowed to go down the mountain in their sect uniform. White figures in night streets of villages.....no matter how one looked at it, it would really be an eyesore for one to see their village roads bulged with hundreds of sect disciples in white, thus this new rule.

Beside his black robe, the demon lord was especially handsome today because of a black headband he was wearing currently. Don't think that he was showing off or something. It was just a rule of the game. A black headband for the chasing party and a purple one for the running party.

Yeah, this idle demon lord here was assigned to be the former party but still didn't move his butt to do his duty, taking his time and eating his snacks on top of a pavilion's roof as though he was the three realm's most carefree person.

But don't underestimate his goal. Zhang Long Wei had determined to get the first place tonight. Whoever that can chase the greatest number of disciples tonight would get a unique prize unlike last year. He could request a day off for any day he wished. Besides, there would be other side rewards like first class talismans for various uses, a dozen of magical pills and other these and those things.

No other rewards were enough for the demon lord to have his eyes on them, only that day off. He needed it. Zhang Long Wei was going to use that day to go to a secluded place and meditate using a special incantation and that purple crystal he got from the puppet general that day. After that, his powers would be all back to him and the Jianyu Sect? Well, Zhang Long Wei only had one word left to say for this sect. Goodbye!

These days here were so boring that Zhang Long Wei felt like if he stayed here even for a day longer, then he would have gone aged one more year. He was going to fuckin dump this godforsaken place and go back to his black palace in the demon realm.

To be honest, Zhang Long Wei thought of staying longer for a while here but it seemed like he needed to leave here faster. Every second, every minute here was just so boring. Zhang Long Wei couldn't just describe enough on how bored he was staying here.

All the peanuts in his hands had already gone and soon Zhang Long Wei was going to participate in the game. Easy peasy...no need to be in a hurry. This demon lord was someone who had all mischievous demons and ghosts work under and bow to him. No one knew better than himself as to how to handle such sorts of naughty ones and their little tricks. There was indeed no problem.

The adonis on top of the pavilion fished out something from his waist. It was something he just bought from a street shop when he was roaming around, looking for a good place to rest before spotting this pavilion. It was a nice dagger with a superb craftsmanship.

The demon was inspecting its craftsmanship carefully when the sight of a lady nagging a man beside her came into his peripheral view. The couple was just passing by the street down before the pavilion. It was indeed nothing uncommon but this had the demon's thoughts wandered on various things like relationships between males and females and his future partner.

The demon was not even sure if he would be getting someone to fall in love with in the future. Zhang Long Wei gazed up into the starry sky, pointing at the majestic heaven with his dagger in a disrespectful manner and said,

" Those old gods and deities up there, if you want to send someone over to me in the future, make sure that she would be less annoying and flirtatious than any other women in the world, otherwise I'll kick her ass off and send her back to you old gods. Get it?"

Satisfied with himself, the boy rose to his feet before jumping down the pavilion with a smirk. It was time for the game. And he was ready to catch all the mischievous disciples around here. Whatever little tricks they used and escaped last year, this year would not be easy. With the lord of demons here to chase all of them, they were bound to be unlucky nerds this year.

And the heaven which was left by Zhang Long Wei after saying whatever he wanted to, "..."

What an obedient kid...Since he just asked for that wish in an extreme respect, with a dagger aiming straight at the sky, heaven decided to grant him his very desire...by sending him the world's most annoying and flirtatious lifelong partner.

But Zhang Long Wei couldn't just kick that someone's ass off like he had said though. He was destined to be infatuated and obsessed with that certain someone big time. But until the time came, let him say as he wished. Anyway, there was only little time left for him before reality hit him hard.
