Chapter 1978 “Meeting (4)”
“You think you’ll be able to leave safely today after coming here?” Willow’s eyes were filled with anger to the point its ready to slash apart Bai Yan’s face: “And you… you snatched away my man over and over again, do you think I’m going to let you go?”
Bai Yan’s smiling eyes turned to the female monarch: “Your man?”
“Hoho,” Willow laughed sarcastically, “yes, he is my husband, the people of the world can attest to that and of how you shamelessly snatched him away from me! But you’ve forgotten, other’s husband cannot be stolen so easily.” Her words instantly dispersed the confusion hovering over the field and sent them all back to their sense.
No matter what, Willow was the goddess in their minds. Its only natural that they would believe her words over some outsider. As such, the anger of the crowd were now shifted towards Bai Yan.
“Di Cang,” Bai Yan pulled on his sleeve and signaled him not to say anything. Then looking down at the imposter collapsed on the ground, she pricks her eyebrow: “So in order to lure Di Cang to come out, you found a woman to impersonate me?”
Willow face got all white and panicky. What happened today was too unexpected for her so she didn’t come up with a story ahead of time. In her haste, the monarch swept her angry gaze over to the young imposter and coldly spoke: “Speak, why did you pretend to be someone else and make trouble at my manor?”
There’s no way the woman could admit this was all her doing and catching a ghost.
The imposter flew into a shock and got into a prostrating position. Crying tears of agony, “Monarch, I know my fault, I am in the wrong…” Then turning to Di Cang, the imposter points up to the demon king, “I only saw this man once, and then I happen to overheard he’s lost his memory, that’s why I tried to pretend to be his wife. I thought it would make him believe me if I do that.”
All her family was in the hands of the monarch so she had no choice but to make this lie. It’s a bad outcome no matter her choice. At the very least, she wants to save her family members by sacrificing herself.
Willow sneered, “I didn’t expect you to be so bold to dare deceive me and my subordinates. I will personally execute you today for that transgression!”
Swish~!
Flicking the palm of her hand, Willow blasts out a dark blast of air at the girl’s forehead.
First shuddering from the impact penetrating her skull, the imposter widens her eyes as the pupils dilated inward until the vision blurred into darkness. Little by little, the maiden’s body falls and goes limp, thus ending the life that was hers once and for all.
In the domain, death was a common occurrence. A young girl’s death was nothing and wouldn’t attract any attention or sympathy. Instead, the happiness of the monarch was what happened to these people After all, if the death was the norm then why should they care?
Bai Yan did not stop Willow’s behavior, rather she was smirking derisively at the limp corpse on the ground like she’s finding it amusing that someone would use such a poor charade to hide their guilt.
Turning back to her husband after there’s nothing more to see, “Something’s wrong with your memory?”
Di Cang nodded slowly and made an apologetic look with his eyes: “I’m sorry Yan’er, I can’t think of anything. Will you be angry at me?”
Bai Yan bursts out laughing, “Why should I be angry? You don’t remember anything yet you still recognized me. If anything, I’m going to reward you for being such a good husband. But first, we will make the ones responsible for your amnesia pay!”
