บท 929: He Couldn’t Be The Celestial, Could He?

"Who is that guy?" That was what Bai Xiaochun was thinking as Du Lingfei and her group left. His hand still hurt from delivering that slap.

It was only now that he realized that the energy passageways in his hand seemed dangerously close to collapsing.

"Don't tell me he's a demigod? But demigod's aren't that tough. Besides, I'm a deva now.... Wait, could he possibly be... the Celestial?!?! Did he slip into the trial by fire to check out the trial-takers first-hand, and see who would be a good apprentice?" The mere thought caused him to shiver with fear.

"Impossible. If he were really the Celestial, then why was it so easy to slap him...? Also, if he were really the Celestial, wouldn't he have exterminated me instantaneously?" After putting some more thought into it, he calmed down a bit, and told himself that he was overreacting, and that the young man couldn't possibly have been the Celestial.
