Watching idly as the stunning figure descends from the air, Qing Luan (snake) showed not only pain on the surface, but her heart as well.
She’s been so accustomed to Di Cang’s cruel and tyrannical nature that she couldn’t even fathom that the man could show such a gentle side. That’s something this snake never seen before in all the years she’s known this person.
“Did I not task you in protecting Yan Yan? Why are you allowing her to face the danger alone?”
Not daring to talk back, Di Xiao Wan never felt so useless in her entire life because she couldn’t even deal with a single snake….
“And you,” after Di Cang finished reprimanding his sister, he promptly turns attention over to the baby boy. “As my son, how can you allow your mother to be in danger when I’m not around? You are a man, it’s your duty to guard her!”
Bai Xiachen’s bloodthirsty light had long disappeared as soon as Di Cang appeared before the group, that’s why his big beautiful eyes only contained a serious light when staring at his old man.
“I understand. In the future I will use my life to safeguard Mother’s life.”
I am a man, so a man must be at the forefront. Only by doing so will no one be able to harm Mother.
“Di Cang! Xiachen is only a child!” Bai Yan’s expression promptly got cold, her face showing a thin layer of anger before being cut off.
“He is my son, not an ordinary child,” Di Cang’s furrows his brow, “His duty is to protect you. Yan Yan, whether it be me…. Or Xiachen, we can both be depended upon.”
Bai Yan’s heart trembled, causing her always calm heart to feel a stir like a rock smashing down into a pond.
In her former life, she would never believe in anyone aside from her own strength. In a way, she had indirectly pushed away a lot of people and a lot of opportunities…. That ended up giving her lots of regrets as well.
In this life, can someone really become my dependence?
NO!
So what if Di Cang is different from my father in that lifetime? He can’t always be by our side when my son’s fate is doomed to be a dangerous one.
“Di Cang,” raising a cold damp smirk, Bai Yan didn’t hold back at all when staring at the man, “don’t forget, this is all because of you that we are in danger. I can confront any danger that comes my way; however, I won’t permit any danger to cross my son!”
Anyone could tell Bai Xiachen was Bai Yan’s Achilles heel. She would rather suffer through immeasurable danger than to allow the child lose a single strand of hair.
“Brother,” as if suddenly coming up with an awesome idea at the increasing tension, Di Xiao Wan immediately jumped up to point at the dying snake. “This snake woman snatched away Wang Xiapeng earlier and forced Xiachen to ingest a poison. She also tried to have Bai Ruo pretend to be the one who slept with you instead of Sister-in-law. If not, if not for fate’s fortunate, it’s likely you wouldn’t be able to see your son again.”
This Qing Luan is too stupid. How can Xiachen ever submit because of some poison? When the time comes it would only end up in some sort of final clash where someone dies.
Sure enough, the distraction worked and Di Cang’s attention was promptly shifted to the snake where he unleashed a monstrous level of pressure that overshadowed the very sky.
“Oophuph,” coughing up hard with blood, Qing Luan looked like her very soul would disperse at any moment as a result of that aura.
“I have already paid the price by summoning the snake ancestor with my soul.”
The implication of her words meant that she’s of no use to anyone, nor does the Demon King’s tactic effect her either.
Thinking of this, Qing Luan’s eyes instantly turned sharp as it spewed fire from those irises.
