Chapter 799 “Bai Xiachen’s Here!”
“Prince?” Watching that little boy wearing the purple brocaded robe, Dragony could no longer hold back her emotions and threw herself into those arms. “Your Highness, I knew you would come save me, I just knew it! Those bad people bullied me, wohoo~”
Despite the strong front this little missy was trying to portray, she soon fell into a sobbing fit after not finding Bai Yan’s presence. “Where’s Her Highness the Queen?”
Bai Xiachen had never been very good with the opposite sex’s tear. Instead of reprimanding the girl like he initially wanted to do, he started to flail his hands around wildly in the air because he was failing miserably at comforting this lass.
“Don’t cry anymore, my mother has something to deal with so she’ll be running late. Come with me, we’re leaving now.” Taking Dragony’s hand, the little steambun forcibly heads for the door without giving anyone a chance to refute his decision.
Perhaps it’s the fact that there’s someone she knows here now, or its just that the other person was Bai Xiachen, but the missy was no longer acting wayward or stubborn like earlier. Now, there’s only a well-behaved little girl following orders, a sharp contrast to her usual behavior.
Meanwhile in the back, the teenager was gawking his eyes out at this picture to the point where he’s forgotten the pain on his forehead. How come this lass wasn’t this timid and well-behaved when I was talking to her?
“Wait a minute.” Suddenly realizing what they’re doing, the teen hurries to stop them.
Meeting the teen’s gaze after turning around, Bai Xiachen was the first to speak: “What do you want? If you are planning to bully Dragony again then think again.”
“No,” the teen shakes his head, “I don’t know how you slipped in here, but it’s not that simple for you to leave. Don’t worry though, I have a way to get all of you out of here without being detected.”
Puckering his lip to one side like an adult, the little steambun clearly didn’t believe that: “Mother said nothing is ever free in this world, especially the kind that comes out of nowhere. We are not related or anything, why should I believe you?”
The teen became gobsmacked by this retort. He never thought this kid would be even more difficult to work with than the girl.
“What’s more…” Bai Xiachen shows off a brilliant smile that only got improved by his innocent yet dazzling grin: “When did I say I want to sneak out of the Dragon Clan’s home?”
“……”
Dismayed by the comment, the teen didn’t know what to make of this. If this kid isn’t here to take the girl away then what is he doing here for?
“You didn’t come to save her?” He points his finger in a dumbfounded manner at the girl before turning it back to the kid in a accusing manner.
“I did come to save Dragony,” the little steambun raises his hand and the girl’s up to show they’re together. “However, she’s been wronged by these lizards so I will get them back for her!”
When the boy made that claim, there’s a beam of conviction that suddenly surfaced and blinded the teen’s perception of what a young child should be. Even so, the stranger still wasn’t convinced and wanted to grab onto the kid’s shoulder to stop him.
“Little guy, don’t be impulsive, these dragons are all very powerful. With your meager strength, you won’t be able to deal with them….” He honestly didn’t want to see a young child running off to certain doom.
But before anything could be done, Bai Xiachen had already run out of the room with the girl in toe. “Dragony, you wait here for me with Dai Dai.” Despite his young age, the kid was already showing the dominance of what’s needed to be a true king like his old man. Releasing a strangely intense aura that felt threatening while also weak at the same time, “All of you lizards living here in the Dragon Mountain, get your butts out here this instant!”
Back over in the rear, the teen was nearly in tears due to the audacity of the boy. He could barely keep his legs straight at the moment. How can this kid do something so crazy?! He’s summoning everyone here at once!
