How can I accept not doing anything when the bastard responsible for State Teacherâs death is found? The demon princess vows to herself not to be useless anymore.
Di Cangâs sight lands on his younger sister, that gaze growing meaningful: âYou are willing to do anything for State Teacher? Not afraid of suffering? Not afraid of danger?â
He remembers a few years ago he had wanted to throw this sister of his into the secret domain used by the Demon Realm to train; however, the lassâs personality kept the girl from going forward with the plan. Now that sheâs suggesting something of this line on her own volition, why not take advantage of this and put her through the ordeal?
âIâm not afraid, Iâm not afraid of anything as long as I can avenge State Teacher.â She states this with firm light in those eyes.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âFine, if thatâs what you wish then I got an idea. You will go through a strict period of harsh training in a special place. If you can make it through the whole ordeal then not only will your strength increase, your beast pearl will also return. I will ask you a second time, are you certain about this?â Di Cang narrows in his eyes until itâs a thin line, making sure there was no hesitation in his sisterâs face.
Sure enough, Di Xiao Wan nods again with firm conviction: âI have decided, I wonât back down regardless of the danger. Brother, I will come back from the training and avenge State Teacher personally!â
âVery well. Outside the Demon Realm is a portal. The space tunnel leads to a fantasy world similar to ancient times. There, monsters and savages are abundant, but likewise, the rewards are also great if you can overcome the strong there. You better not regret the decision. Once you are inside that place, even I, wonât be able to save you in time if danger falls on your head.â Di Cang gives one final warning.
âBrother, you know very well State Teacher died in order to protect me that day. He never cowered before the enemy. If I donât even have the courage to avenge him then what qualifications do I have left to seek someone that is as courageous as him out again? I would be too ashamed!â There are countless beads of tears flowing down the girlâs face, causing a bittersweet flavor to hover in the air.
âIf thatâs your final decision then I wonât try to persuade you. Iâll inform the elders later to send you. But know this. That world may be a fantasy, but dying there still applies to you. Once dead, you can never return.â
After hearing this, Di Xiao Wan did not make any sort of fearful expression, but that didnât mean Bai Yan wasnât effect by that last comment.
The demon queen honestly didnât want the lass to head into such a dangerous world, but this was the demon princessâs decision. Sheâs not in a position to deny such a thing.
âBrother, you donât have to worry about me, I will definitely return. Even if I die, it will be after I avenged State Teacher and kill the one responsible for his death!â When stating this part, the girlâs fist was a tight ball of hatred. âSister-in-law, I know what you are thinking and how worried you are. You know, Iâve liked you since the first time we met. I was so ignorant and foolish back thenâ¦. Always hiding behind your back when Big Brother scolds me. But now I know that is me being irresponsible. I cannot continue like that. I need to grow and find my own way. So, let me go and do this alone, okay?â
Whatever happens, would happen. Di Xiao Wan understood her decision today wonât regret it.
Bai Yanâs expression eased up after that plea from the girl. Originally she intended to do something in the shadows to protect her, but itâs obvious Di Xiao Wan read whatâs on her mind.
âI see, but take this first. The storage bag contains all of the medicine and drugs Iâve made recently. Do not decline, otherwise I will not agree to you going alone.â Bai Yan firmly demands this as a compromise.
