Pain and sadness always dampen down after some time. In this case, Bai Yan’s final emotion were that of indifference because she didn’t want to be hurt anymore. At this point, she only wants a clear answer.
“Yes.” Under that indifferent gaze, Chu Yi God painfully nodded and confirmed the truth.
He didn’t want to kill her, nor did she intend to harm her companions back then. However…. the fact remains that her miserable fate and death was indeed caused by him. The man couldn’t deny it.
Bai Yan gently closes her eyes because her heart was shaking immensely. She thought she was prepared for the final answer, but it’s clear she wasn’t entirely.
“Mother,” the steambun tugs at the lady’s hand with worry in his eyes. Then turning to the man with anger burning, “You leave, don’t you see my mother doesn’t want to see you!”
“Xiachen…” A bittersweet smile comes off of the man’s mouth, “I really don’t have any malice towards you, please believe me.”
Getting frustrated along his little face now, Bai Xiachen raises his voice into a yell: “You hurt my mother’s heart, you also killed Azure Dragon and them, how can you still say you don’t hold malice against us? I know you are strong and I’m not your opponent, but one day I will grow up and when that time comes, I will make you pay for everything you owe us!”
These words may be coming out of that childish mouth, but the tone and force in his voice showed that he’s well on his way to becoming a ruler of one realm.
Chu Yi God tasted a bitter sadness in his mouth at that moment. He could see the hatred coming out of the kid’s eye, and the resentful tone shooting his way. It’s then he knew, whatever hope he had of winning back Bai Yan’s heart was forever lost, he won’t ever have a chance again…..
“Xiachen is right, one day we will pay back the blood debt!” Bai Yan announces, her eyes hard and hostile now.
“Out of consideration that you saved my son that one time, I won’t settle the matter with you today. However, the next time we meet is when we will put an end to everything!”
How could I have forgotten?
How could I have done that?
Celestial Palace!
Chu Yi God!
YUN RUO XI!
I won’t let any of you go!
“Wait Yan’er, let me explain…” Chu Yi God wanted to reach out with his hand due to panic. Unfortunately for him, his hand was promptly slapped away when near contact.
“Don’t touch me. Compared to Di Cang, you are scum! You’re not even comparable to a strand of his hair!”
A visible tremor could be seen across the man’s shoulder, a readable sign he’s been hurt by that insult.
“If…” Bai Yan stopped for a second in her words, then snickering sarcastically, “If you want me to forgive you then it’s possible. I want those from the Celestial Palace to die, including this Yun Ruo Xi, can you kill them now?”
Initially the man flashed a flicker of hope in his eyes after hearing there’s a chance to turn things around, but the latter part completely ripped the light out of his face like he’s dead inside.
“Yan’er, not now, but in the future…. In the future I will….”
