Watching idly as the stunning figure descends from the air, Qing Luan (snake) showed not only pain on the surface, but her heart as well.
Sheâs been so accustomed to Di Cangâs cruel and tyrannical nature that she couldnât even fathom that the man could show such a gentle side. Thatâs something this snake never seen before in all the years sheâs known this person.
âDid I not task you in protecting Yan Yan? Why are you allowing her to face the danger alone?â
Not daring to talk back, Di Xiao Wan never felt so useless in her entire life because she couldnât even deal with a single snakeâ¦.
âAnd you,â after Di Cang finished reprimanding his sister, he promptly turns attention over to the baby boy. âAs my son, how can you allow your mother to be in danger when Iâm not around? You are a man, itâs your duty to guard her!â
âI understand. In the future I will use my life to safeguard Motherâs life.â
I am a man, so a man must be at the forefront. Only by doing so will no one be able to harm Mother.
âDi Cang! Xiachen is only a child!â Bai Yanâs expression promptly got cold, her face showing a thin layer of anger before being cut off.
âHe is my son, not an ordinary child,â Di Cangâs furrows his brow, âHis duty is to protect you. Yan Yan, whether it be meâ¦. Or Xiachen, we can both be depended upon.â
Bai Yanâs heart trembled, causing her always calm heart to feel a stir like a rock smashing down into a pond.
In her former life, she would never believe in anyone aside from her own strength. In a way, she had indirectly pushed away a lot of people and a lot of opportunitiesâ¦. That ended up giving her lots of regrets as well.
In this life, can someone really become my dependence?
NO!
So what if Di Cang is different from my father in that lifetime? He canât always be by our side when my sonâs fate is doomed to be a dangerous one.
âDi Cang,â raising a cold damp smirk, Bai Yan didnât hold back at all when staring at the man, âdonât forget, this is all because of you that we are in danger. I can confront any danger that comes my way; however, I wonât permit any danger to cross my son!â
Anyone could tell Bai Xiachen was Bai Yanâs Achilles heel. She would rather suffer through immeasurable danger than to allow the child lose a single strand of hair.
This Qing Luan is too stupid. How can Xiachen ever submit because of some poison? When the time comes it would only end up in some sort of final clash where someone dies.
Sure enough, the distraction worked and Di Cangâs attention was promptly shifted to the snake where he unleashed a monstrous level of pressure that overshadowed the very sky.
âOophuph,â coughing up hard with blood, Qing Luan looked like her very soul would disperse at any moment as a result of that aura.
âI have already paid the price by summoning the snake ancestor with my soul.â
The implication of her words meant that sheâs of no use to anyone, nor does the Demon Kingâs tactic effect her either.
Thinking of this, Qing Luanâs eyes instantly turned sharp as it spewed fire from those irises.
