If I leave the Demon Realm then I might never be able to fallfish my wish again! Qiu Moon thought, her heart firming up.
......
Night time with the moon hanging high, a dark hazy figure slowly rose from the ground and appeared before the fox lady.
âQiu Moon greets Your Lordship.â she takes to the knee, her tone respectful and compliant.
âWhat is the progress?â The strange entityâs voice sounded hoarse and rough, yet it had a strange magnetic drew to it that compelled others to listen.
Dimming her eyes due to the bump in her mission: âIâm sorry Milord, the king is not in the Demon Realm so itâs only State Teacher watching over the palace. That guy is very wary of me so I couldnât get close to my target. Right now Iâm being shadowed by the palace guardsmen so my progress is limited.â
âFool!â The man snorted in displeasure, âI canât even rely on you to do something as simple as that, what use are you to me?â
Qiu Yueâs face went white, her fluster all apparent to the other side: âMilord, I donât have any options either. Furthermore, the princess wants me to depart from the palace after tonight, I fear I wonât be able to locate the item you instructed...â
That answer definitely didnât sit well with the being. Suddenly, he cackled a laugh that drew oneâs hair up. Itâs chilling and full of contempt for others: âIn that case, I will give you another mission to make up for your slow progression. My people wonât be able to break through the boundaries on their own and come to your aid, the only way is for you to help them from your side. The time they can spend over there is limited, but itâs more than enough to move the mission along.â
Though delighted at this support, Qiu Moon still sounded hesitant: âWill... will the method hurt her?â
There are things that she doesnât want to happen like hurting the one she holds dear. However, she too knows the decision doesnât lie with her, but with this individual whom she calls master. Without him, Qiu Moon would remain that weak and helpless fox from way past, nor would she be able to come here to this side.
âDonât worry, I know the person you have in your heart, I wonât hurt her. By then I will even grant you your wish, hahaha!â The corner of the manâs mouth rose slowly, his eyes flashing a cold glint.
Donât hurt that woman?
How can I ever let her go!
I will make Di Cang suffer, that includes hurting the closest people around him. I will make that guy suffer a life of pain!
......
Under the glistening red light of the blood colored moon here, Di Xiao Wan casually flew over the sea of mountains in this region without hinder.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âState Teacher, do you think my new little niece will like me as her aunt?â The demon princess descends and plucked a rose up from a bush she came across, âAnd should I prepare some gifts?â
All affectionate in the eye, the man was all smiles at the question: âThe king and queenâs daughter will definitely be as lovely as Prince Xiachen, Iâm sure she will like you regardless.â
âReally?â Di Xiao Wan sounded very happy, her eyes sparkling with hope for their meet. âState Teacher, truth is, Iâm starting to remember some of the things from the past now. I know youâve accompanied me for a long time, so....â biting her lip, the girl grew hesitant at what sheâs going to say next.
When Di Cang gave up everything to save Bai Yan, this man too gave up everything to save herself. Though sheâs lost all the memories of the past, the important bits are gradually starting to resurface.
