Chapter 627 “Leave (8)”
Scooping up a spoonful of the sugary bird nest soup into her mouth, Di Xiao Wan happily spills the details as her cheeks flush a pinkish red from the delectable taste. “Of Course its because State Teacher told me. Every few years the seal would weaken and leave a tear open. At that moment, one can make it through and travel into the human world.”
“Oh, then does that mean all the residences in this world can have a chance to leave if they so wished it?”
“No not exactly, not everyone can leave as they wish. The area of the tear is guarded by State Teacher’s men. Unless the individual got permission from my brother or State Teacher himself, they won’t be permitted to leave. But its different for you Sister-in-law, you are the Queen of the Demon Realm, everyone must listen to you.”
Di Xiao Wan obviously didn’t know the thoughts of the other side and left nothing untold. Nevertheless, a doubtful curiosity did take root in the young maiden’s heart. “But then again, why are you asking me all this Sister-in-law, are you going somewhere?”
“Nothing, I’m just curious, that’s all. Anyways, you take your time eating, I’ll go back first and rest.” Giving a stretch, she soon gets up to excuse herself to the wary eyed princess.
Di Xiao Wan may not know what’s going on but that doesn’t mean she’s oblivious to the strange air hovering around the insecure woman.
……
As soon as Bai Yan managed to emerge from the dining hall, the one to first welcome her was the little dragon girl dazing out next to the water stream.
“Queen!” Perhaps able to sense the extra presence, the missy turns around and cries out the name with the biggest smile ever.
“Dragony, would you like to leave with me?” Bai Yan reaches over to caresse the girl’s head and asked.
“Wherever Queen goes, I will go.” There no falseness in those words, only the naïve and innocence of a child that yearns to be with the one she deems kind and true.
“Okay, let’s leave now.” Together, hand in hand, the two females walked forward without looking back.
Bai Yan did not need to go search far for the location of the tear this time, it’s next to the altar where her coronation took place. This was something she investigated prior to asking the princess. And since she herself was the queen of this world, none of the servants or maids attempted to hide the fact.
“Fortunately State Teacher is in closed-door training lately. Otherwise, leaving will not be as easy.” Revealing a bittersweet smile, she was now standing before the open rift leading to the human world.
“Mistress….” Jumping off from those arms, the baby tiger showed a look of suspicious doubt in those eyes: “Our luck can’t be this good, the rift actually exists and is this close?”
Wrinkling her brow at that warning: “What’s wrong? Do you notice something odd about this?”
Truth was Bai Yan only came to test her luck and see if the tear in the seal still existed. If not then she would look elsewhere for an opportunity.
But to her surprise though, her luck was just that good it seems….
At the same time in the air, two powerful individuals were exchanging looks of helplessness after witnessing this scene. In the end they descended to carry out their orders.
“Greetings Your Highness.” Taking to their knees with respect, they went straight to the point by asking: “Queen, are you intending to go to the human world?”
Bai Yan makes a light nod: “Yes, I want to go back to my homeland.”
“This… does His Majesty know about this?” The man wipes the cold sweat from his forehead, afraid to hear what’s to come next.
“He knows,” she lied without blinking an eye. “What? Are you doubting me?”
“No… your subject wouldn’t dare….” The two masters exchanged another look and quickly retreated.
Di Cang’s speech about Bai Yan being higher in command than himself has already made headlines across the entire Demon Realm. Therefore, these men would never dare to test that order even if they had a hundred lives.
“Come, let’s go.” Holding the boy and girl in each, Bai Yan leads the way.
