At this moment at a not so far away peak next to this township, a woman now stands staring down from above at the terrain as the bristling wind blew against her dress. The eyes she showed were sharp and bright.
âThis domain doesnât look all that different from the world outside, now I just need to find Xiachen and get him backâ¦.â Loosening her frown after that small muttering remark to herself, she promptly left the spot in a flash to head for the township at the bottom of the valley.
â¦â¦
Meanwhile at the same time this was occurring, Di Cang was currently acting increasingly more annoyed as he sat on the throne seat in the Sky Clanâs settlement.
âIs there still no news about my sonâs whereabout?â
âSire, weâve searched everywhere around the area, thereâs no sign of the prince yet.â The guard answers with a nervous tremble.
That was not the right answer, causing the oppressive manâs aura to swoop over devour the poor soldierâs existence until heâs choking for air. Thankfully its then another figure came running over from the doorway to stop the act. Kneeling there, the person carefully spoke: âSire, weâve just received a letter from an outsider, the stranger said it was for you.â
âBring it forward!â He growled with a menacing voice.
âYes, Your Majesty.â In his hurry to comply, the soldier nearly tripped on his own two feet when trying to hand over the letter.
As annoyed as he was over the incapability of his own men, Di Cang didnât have the patience to punish the second individualâs carelessness. Tearing apart the cover, he only needed a quick glance at the letterâs content to grew dark and hard in the face.
âGather everyone, weâre heading to Long Town now!â Rapidly rising from the throne chair, his maneuver allowed the letter to slowly flutter to the floor for everyone to see.
âIf the king wants to see the little prince then he will come to the Demonic Wolf Clanâs home.â
In an instant all faces were changing in various ways, but all had the same thought in mind: The prince is at the Demonic Wolfâs Clanâs place?
But before they could dwell on the issue any further, Di cang had already left them for the outside, forcing the rest to quickly follow suit. Lucky they did so too. Because right as the dangerous man was off the grounds of this settlement, a huge gulf of purplish instantly lights up across the Sky Clanâs home, destroying and incinerating the structure and grounds.
â¦â¦
Wolf Manor.
Leaning his head against the bedside rail, Bai Xiachen appeared bored as he stared forward in a mindless state. Heâs thinking of something just donât know what.
Its then the door was pushed open by a hand. Looking over, he could see it was young woman walking over.
âXiachen, youâre awake?â Carrying a tray of dainty pastries with her, Sisi (wolf lady) sounded gentle and kind as she spoke: âMother prepared some snacks for you. Come, try some, Iâm sure you are hungry by now.â
Not rejecting the offer, the little steambun first picked up a pastry to take a sniff. When his nose found nothing wrong with it, his expression promptly relaxed.
Mmm, itâs not poisonousâ¦
But the thought only lasted a bite before the kid spit the stuff back out.
âSo gross, itâs nasty, who made this food? Are they trying to hurt me with this?â
Sisiâs face was stiff as a rock right now. She just couldnât believe how the little fella could detest her cooking so much. This wolf lady could swear that in this Long Town, her cooking skills are top notch. Even if its not he best, itâs among one of the best and couldnât be matched.
However, one good thing did come out of this for her and that was Bai Xiachenâs willingness to speak. Thank goodness this child is not a retard and a muteâ¦.
âXiachen, this is what mother here made for you, donât you like it?â
Flickering with a light in his big blue eyes, Bai Xiachenâs cuddly and cute face revealed a bright smile when meeting the wolf ladyâs gaze.
