It’s a pity though, the Celestial Lord’s movements are nonstationary. When they wanted to find the man, he had already disappeared again without giving them a chance to meet….
“Send more people to protect Ruo Xi for now,” Keeper Zun frowns up, “she’s not having it easy. Things are clearly not her fault, yet she’s trying to bear all the burden by herself. Her level of sensibleness is enough to make one ache. Such a fine girl, if only Bai Yan could learn just an ounce of her good characteristics, then maybe she wouldn’t have turned out the way she did…..”
The crowd got all quiet again, which felt eerily uncomfortable in this place.
“Ho!” But Keeper Ling clearly thought otherwise in comparison to his comrades, “You all think its strange that Ruo Xi couldn’t win the Lord’s heart, right? Then think of it this way. With Ruo Xi’s kind and aloof personality that doesn’t connive after worldly affairs, do you think she can fight against Bai Yan who is cunning and sinister?”
Keeper Blue was the first to react, but in the end the old timer couldn’t refute the grumpy Keeper’s claim.
He’s right, she’s the type to abstain from worldly affairs. There’s no way a unstained white lotus could win in a fight of deceit and cunningness. But no matter what, we will grant that girl’s wish. In this world, no one is more qualified to be at the Lord’s side than her!
……
Somewhere inside a hollow grand room.
Yun Ruo Xi had just walked into this place when a maid hurried over to make a report of the conversation between the Keepers.
“He’s right, Keeper Ling didn’t get me wrong. Unlike Bai Yan who wants everything in this world, I don’t care for the worldly stuff. She wants to stand at the very top, I only want Chu Yi God to be by my side.”
However, this witch apparently forgot something very crucial in her logic. Unlike herself, Bai Yan would only use her own powers and strength to reach the top, while she herself would use underhanded means and lies to get what she wants. Everything that she has right now, everything she owns, it’s through the mean of ripping it away from someone else….
“But…” a smirk draws itself into that face, “I remember the last time I saw that woman, she seems to be pregnant.”
Even if it’s just a quick glance, nevertheless… Yun Ruo Xi still managed to make out that uneven belly. Then with the recent attack, she clearly saw that bump was gone. It’s evidence that the woman’s given birth.
If Bai Yan gave birth to a daughter, then those Keepers will definitely go after the baby. By then I won’t be able to escape from the fate they have in store for me!
Darkening in her expression over the thought again, she turns to the maid nearby: “Go investigate for me, I want to know if Bai Yan gave birth to a daughter or not. If she did then come back and report the news to me.”
If there’s no mistake on her part, Keeper Ling also recognized Bai Yan’s pregnancy, that’s why he suggested the plan to drain the child of her blood. There’s no way Ruo Xi could stand idly by and do nothing, she must kill that baby before the Keepers get their hands on the thing!
