Due to how urgent he was in getting back to help, Keeper Ling’s attitude ha grown frantic and threatening in hopes of making Di Cang move aside.
“Me and the Celestial Realm are enemies to begin with, a thousand years ago I was, now the same. Yet you come and want peace? Hahaha!”
In other words, whatever these idiotic bunch was trying to do was pointless to begin with. Di Cang never intended to make peace with these bastards.
“Di Cang, if your strength was the same as a millennium ago then us three might’ve perhaps been wary of you, but now you’re no longer a threat to us! Want to make us stay? Dream on!”
Smirking with a derisive note in his face, Di Cang clearly thought otherwise: “Even if I can’t kill you three today, I will still make you leave behind a limb or two!”
Want to leave? Sure, leave behind a leg or an arm first then perhaps you can leave!
“Keeper Hyun, Keeper Ling, stop wasting words with him. If he won’t let us leave then just kill him, then we’ll leave!” Keeper Zun states this with dark menacing eyes, something which this elder normally doesn’t show in his usual mood.
Perhaps they are just that confident, or they’re just that self-conceited, but the three here still hasn’t connected the dots yet. In their view, only Di Cang has the power to threaten them, but even then, its impossible to overcome so many Keepers at once. That leaves only one other person capable, and that was the prophet from way back informing them of the calamity. But ever since then the person has disappeared from this world, never to be seen again, meaning that speculation was also out of the question.
……
Meanwhile inside the Demon City, a sneaky little figure was sniveling around in the shadows and had overheard everything. Without hesitation, this individual had snuck away again by taking advantage of the fighting between Di Cang and the three Keepers.
Minutes later back inside the palace.
High above an old peach tree, Di Ling Yan had just finished picking one of the fruits with her small little hands when she poked her head out from the leaves.
“Here, catch Second Brother.” Unfortunately, right as she’s about to throw the object down with in her tiny hands, that little leg slipped and sent her tumbling downwards for the ground.
This was a very dangerous situation and it sent the maids nearby flying in horror. They wanted to catch the princess, but it was none other than the round
The maids present jumped at this dangerous situation, both frightened and shocked by the critical moment, but it was another little body that made it in the nick of time.
Plump!
Landing right atop of the big roundish body from the top down, the baby girl was all fine and dandy from the impact, however, the poor baby boy on the bottom wasn’t so fortunate. Di Jin Tian almost cried with those tears tricking in the corner of his eye.
“Second Brother, are you alright?” Ling Yan asks after climbing down and patting the dust off her pretty dress.
Climbing back up with reddish color along his eyes: “I’m not hurt, I’m not hurt, it’s good that you are alright…”
Big Brother said that I’m a small adult already, I can’t keep crying and need to protect my little sister.
“Princess!”
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from the side and catches the kids attention.
“Madam, are you calling me?” Ling Yan asks with big innocent eyes.
