The man in black went rock stiff over that order. Raising his head with shock shown across those eyes, he couldn’t believe that twisted face was coming out of the lady across from himself.
“Ruo Xi, that’s a child you’re asking me to kill.” Showing complexity in his voice, “You should know I have two rules in the people I kill. One being I won’t kill the innocent and old, the other being children.”
“Winger!” The witch literally screeched, “She is not a child! That baby is no more than a monster, a demonkin! You are not violating your own guidelines so do not bicker with me, not to mention I saved you back then!”
Not to mention I saved you back then!
Winger’s heart trembled over the reminder, which causes his hand to instinctively clench up.
Every time he that wants to refuse this woman’s request – mainly because they’re never good – he would always act this way. One being it’s against his standards, the second being he’s not an evil person at heart. Nevertheless, what happened in the past left too much of an impact on his heart. She’s the one person who reached out and saved him from that dark lonely place!
That’s why, no matter how cruel and ugly Ruo Xi becomes, this shadowy man known as Winger would always appease her request. One for gratitude, the other for the ounce of warmth he got in all his life. He’s never felt anything like that and clung to that emotion like a moth to fire.
“Leave this to me then Ruo Xi.” Gradually a firm light filled Winger’s eye, “I said it before, I will protect your happiness in this life. Therefore, I won’t allow others to destroy your happiness either.”
Even if this means he must destroy everything that he holds dear, including his own consciousness, this man of the darkness wouldn’t care.
Showing a soft gentle smile now, Yun Ruo Xi couldn’t ask for a better response: “I know I was being a bit harsh on you Winger, but you must understand, I’m also getting anxious as well during these hard times. Let’s do this then. After this mission is completed, I will grant you one wish that’s within my ability to give, and if possible…” That said, a flash of murderous intent beams right out of those eyes, “Kill Bai Yan if you can, kill her if you get the chance!”
Rou Xi was very much aware of Winger’s strength. If this dog of hers goes in person, he might just be able to do some serious damage to that family. If lucky, he might even assasinate Bai Yan while they aren’t aware of what’s going on.
Pursing his lips into a thin line, the shadowy man gave one last stare to his supposed savior before finally turning away. In the end, he didn’t try to persuade her anymore and disappeared into the sky.
Not long after this brief encounter, Yun Rou Xi had come before the grumpy Keeper.
Happy in the face: “Keeper Ling, you came right on time, I got wind of Brother Yi God’s whereabout.”
“Really?” A flash of joy filled the old timer’s face, causing his eyes to shine with warmth and kindness.
“It’s true.”
There’s no way Winger would deceive me so this information must be true.
“Keeper Ling, I ask you not force the Lord into anything he doesn’t want to do. If he wish to stay outside then please let him, and…” That said, she then hung her eyes downward like a dejected maiden, “It’s fine if he doesn’t want me, I don’t want to force him into a relationship….”
But unlike the woman who only has the topic of love in mind, the old timer opposite to herself didn’t have the ear for it. Instead, he only heard the part about Chu Yi God being located.
“Tell me now, I need to go see the Lord. No matter what, I must bring him back to the palace!” In that split second, a sinister light flickers within the senior’s eye, a total contrast to the delighted face he was making.
If I remember correctly, Bai Yan was already pregnant before. If without accident she would’ve given birth by now. If it’s a girl then that’s perfect, if not then I will make sure she produces another one, and to do that we will need the Lord’s help!
