She Imew it. Why did a childâs personality change after being kidnapped? âI was careless! I didnât expect that bastard to have the guts! Such ability!â
Thatâs right. No matter how weak the Soul Rakshasa was, he was still a Soul Rakshasa and would not be tricked easily. However, Zhou Jin had done it. It was not strange for him to have the ability. After all, he had the bloodline of the Sorcerer King, but that courage, boldness, and intelligence were not something that just anyone could have.
âAs expected of the descendant of the Saint King and the Sorcerer King.â The Great Elder sighed.
The Sorcerer Queen said coldly, âGrandpa, are you still in the mood to praise their descendant?â
The Great Elder sighed. âIf you had known earlier, why did you do it back then?â The Sorcerer Queen paused. The Great Elder looked at her steadily and said, âYou should have killed the Sorcerer King long ago. If you had killed him, everything would have been fine.â
The Sorcerer Queen was silent.
Thatâs right, she should have killed that man long ago, but she was just unwilling to accept it. She wanted to watch that man grow old under torture time and time again. She wanted to find that bastard and destroy him in front of him!
She wanted all his years of patience and hard work to go up in flames. She wanted to see him hate her and be helpless against her!
The Sorcerer Queen clenched her fists coldly. âI wonât let them succeed!
Sorcerer King, Zhou Jin, and that group of people can forget about escaping!â
The Sorcerer Queen mobilized all the factions she could mobilize. The Great Elder also mobilized the troops of the Elder Hall. Two groups of people rushed to the city gate.
âHave you seen Lord Wen?â
âLord Wen and Second Madam went that way.â The city guard waved his finger, and the pursuers charged over with cold expressions.
Yu Wan and the others had already passed through the market and were about to take a carriage to meet Yu Shaoqing and the others. They would never stop once they left.
It was time for Dawa to part with the Second Madam.
âLord Wen, itâs time to set off,â Zhou Yuyan, who was dressed as a coachman, reminded him.
Dawa felt bitter. âI know. Wait for me in front. I⦠Iâll come after a few words.â
Zhou Yuyan drove the carriage slowly towards Yu Wan and the others. Dawa led a horse and stood at the intersection with the Second Madam. Behind them was the Sorcerer Clan, and there was no way back.
The Second Madam glanced at Dawa, lowered her eyes, and urged, âYou guys should leave quickly.â
âArenât you⦠going to ask us why weâre doing these things?â
âI believe you⦠must have your own reasons.â The Second Madam smiled and patted the saddle. âGet on the horse. You wonât be able to catch up later.â âHow are you going back?â asked Dawa.
The Second Madam smiled and said, âI only need to tell those guards that Iâm the Madam of the Wen Manor. Naturally, someone will escort me back.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dawa touched his stiffness and was at a loss. âI⦠I met the Third Elder on the way just now. Iâm sorry, I got someone to tap his acupoints.â
The Second Madam was stunned for a moment before she glanced at Shadow Thirteen and the others who had walked far away and said, âThank you for not letting them kill my father.â
âAhâ¦â Dawa was stunned.
The Second Madam smiled gently. âAlright, itâs really time to go.â
Dawa bit his lip and got on the horse. âIâ¦â
Dawa wanted to tell her: My name was Dawa. Iâm not Wen Xu. Wen Xu would not come back. I wonât be able to come back, either.
The Second Madam pinched her handkerchief and waved at him with a smile.
Dawa turned his head, clamped his legs around the horseâs stomach, and faced straight ahead. With a shout, he sped away.
The Second Madam stood fixedly at the fork in the road and looked at the figure that had disappeared at the end of the road. The smile on her face faded bit by bit. She raised her head, as if she was blinded by the sandstorm, and her eyes were a little sore.
She turned around and walked back. Suddenly, there was the sound of rapid horse hooves behind her. Her heart trembled and she turned around to see Dawa riding his horse towards her. Her breathing suddenly tightened.
Dawa stopped the horse in front of her. He took a deep breath and said in a voice that was almost trembling, âDo you want to come with me?â
âWhat?â The Second Madam was stunned.
Dawaâs lifelong courage was used here. His face turned red and his heart beat violently. âI say, Nie Wanrou, do you want to come with me?â
The Second Madam said in a daze, âYou⦠you meanâ¦â She paused, not daring to continue.
Dawa went all out and mustered his courage to say loudly, âLeave the Wen Manor! Leave the Sorcerer Clan! Wherever I go, you go! Wherever I am, itâs your home! â
With that, he bent down and reached out to her.
The Second Madam looked at the big hand that was stretched out in front of her in a daze. It was unknown if it was because she was nervous, but the hand was actually red and her palm was sweating.
The Second Madamâs eyes burned, and her heart ached from the heat.
Dawa waited nervously for her answer. She was the mistress of the Wen Manor and the daughter of the Nie Manor. It seemed too cruel to ask her to give up everything and roam the world with him. Besides, he was not the real Wen Xu, not her husband, not her loverâ¦
Such a request was not fair.
Dawaâs eyes darkened and he pulled his hand away. The Second Madam suddenly grabbed his hand. Dawa was shocked. The Second Madam smiled through her tears. âArenât you taking me away?
âYes! Yes!â Dawa nodded vigorously.
The Second Madam smiled and said, âThen why arenât you pulling me up?â
Dawa blinked in disbelief and pulled the Second Madam up. Unexpectedly, at this moment, an arrow shot over from ahead. Dawa was shocked and turned around, protecting the Second Madam tightly in his arms.
The Second Madam pushed Dawa off the horse. The arrow hit the Second Madamâs chest, and blood splattered. She sat in the saddle, her body stiff, and blood flowed from the corner of her lips.
Dawaâs eyes widened in fear. âNo⦠noââ The Second Madam fell off the horseâs back. Dawa pounced on her and hugged her. âNie Wanrou⦠Nie Wanrouâ¦â
The Second Madam looked at him weakly. She wanted to speak, but she could not suppress the blood flowing from her throat.
Dawa hugged her tightly. âNie Wanrou⦠Nie Wanrouâ¦â
âYou⦠you areâ¦â The Second Madam spat out another mouthful of blood. Her hand that was holding the red bracelet did not let go, but it fell weakly. She closed her eyes in his arms.
Dawa burst into tears! âIâm Dawaâ¦â
âIâm Dawaââ
