Not far away inside a secluded cave, Bai Yan was currently awaiting the cauldron to finish its last stage of refinement with her eyes closed.
âSuccess!â She cries out after getting the first whiff of the pillâs aroma.
Hurrying to get up from her seat, Bai Yan wasted no time in pushing the lid open and letting her eyes take witness to the marvel thatâs inside â three green beads with three bright red lines on the body.
âTri Reaching Soul Dan Pill! With this I can immediately have a breakthrough in my cultivation.â Picking up the three precious pills, her lips inexplicably curled into a smile at the thought of being to use it on her son as well.
âQueen.â Upon seeing her mistress coming out of the cave, there were undoubtedly rays of joy in the Vermillion Birdâs face. Quickly stepping forward: âQueen, have you succeeded in refining what you wanted?â
âThatâs right,â Bai Yan nods. âWhat about my son and Little Rice?â
âOh, they went out to play by themselves, I am here to guard you.â Smiling right up to her obsessive eyes, the glamorous woman promptly hooked her arms around Bai Yanâs to close in the distance.
Why canât I ever get enough ofâ¦. Oh~ the more I look, the more I like!
Then just as Suzaku was about to continue the conversation in a different direction â mainly about themselves â a gloomy aura from behind catches her by surprise. Going stiff, she hurried to release that arm and shuttered backwards a step.
âDi Cang, how come you are here?â Ignoring the sour mood of her man, Bai Yan asks with a hint of surprise in that voice.
âI came to pick you up of course.â The manâs terrifying air recedes as soon as he turns back to face his future wife.
That wasnât something Bai Yan had expected. First looking at Suzakuâs pitiful face, then back at Di Cang who clearly meant what he said: âI promised Suzaku that I will stay here to accompany her for half a month, not to mention that I am looking for a quiet place to have a breakthrough in my cultivation as well.â
âOkay, then I will accompany you here too.â Evoking an evil grin, Di Cang pulls at that dainty hand to bring his greatest desire into his embrace: âYan Yan, those that bullied and harmed have all been dealt with. Iâve also destroyed the snakes from back then. Now thereâs no one left to get in our way.â
Originally Di Cang had expected gratitude and approval for his actions; after all, it was all for her sake. Sadly, his own assumptions only made the woman go completely dark in the face.
Am I someone who tattles and complain to others? Bai Yan thought.
âThis snake clan shouldâve been destroyed long ago!â Suzaku indignantly snorts, âNothing but the most inferior of slaves out there, how dare they connive after the Queenâs position. I think you were rather late in doing it evenâ¦â
But thatâs about all she could say for the cold hard glare from the man had shut that mouth up in an instant.
âYou talk too much.â After saying this, the man swiftly shifts his attention back to Bai Yan, those lips and eyes more and more charming like heâs deliberately putting on his best light.
âYan Yan, I will take you to a place.â
Bai Yan was so taken aback by that sentence that she literally became stoned.
Not giving her the chance for refusal, the manâs arm has already wrapped around that waist and off they went together.
âWhere are you taking me?â Bai Yan frowns as they flew through the sky.
âYou will know laterâ¦â Brushing her silky hair along the way, the manâs voice was hoarse and hypnotic.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Knowing its pointless to resist now, Bai Yan simply let it go and just followed along with whatever he has planned. Its not the first time heâs done something so demanding so its futile to resist.
