The boyâs body was soft to the touch and fragrant to the nose, leaving Bai Yanâs heart all calm and warmed to the bone. Towards his son and wifeâs intimate contact, Di Cang immediately dumped whatever he was doing to the captive and rushed over to toss the little steambun aside. Heâs a big sour pot to anyone who gets too close to his woman, that includes his own flesh and blood.
âHow did it go Yan Yan?â The demon kingâs smile was superb as soon as he turned to his wife despite how dark he looked just one second ago.
But before Bai Yan could answer the question, Liu Qing Yuâs presence has also arrived on scene through the doorway.
âMiss⦠are you alright?â Uncle Jun was the only one showing joy at this new entry. Then just when this old man wanted to struggle up again to run to her sideâ¦..
BAM!!
Only a flick of his finger, thatâs all Di Cang needed to do to force to force the other person back down to the floor. Its merely a gesture, but the force involved wouldâve killed any ordinary human. Even so, Uncle Junâs complexion was a horrible white after getting hit in the heel with that blow. Heâs sweating balls right now due to the pain.
âWhen did I say you can get back up?â Di Cangâs voice was overbearing and arrogant with a tinge of smugness as well since heâs able to show off before his wife.
No matter though. Uncle Jun may not be able to move at this moment due to the threat and pain, but he only wanted to confirm the ladyâs safety, thatâs all. With his strength, this senior was more than capable of making an assessment using his eyes only.
On the other hand, Liu Qing Yu had wanted to rush over to help the old grandpa after seeing the terrible state he was in. Unfortunately, her status now was a âslaveâ and that meant sheâs in no position to decide what to do. In the end this once proud woman of the Spirit Realm could only timidly look over to her mistress for permission first.
âGrandfather, Grandmother, Holy Lord, could you get a list of statistics for all the people killed by the Wu familyâs attack. We will have Liu Qing Yu go in person to plead for forgiveness from all of them!â
It didnât matter if the lady didnât specifically order the murdering of the three powers. Theyâre her subordinate, that means its almost a definite she would know of their virtues. Ignoring was the same as indirectly allowing. Whatâs more, Bai Yan herself couldnât say for certain she wouldâve come out on top today if Di Cang wasnât around. So, whether it be personal or business wise, she has no reason to be lenient on this Liu Qing Yu regardless of her submitting.
In that instant, all eyes were gathered on the mentioned âslaveâ, their faces showing a stunned and surprised look.
What does she mean by that? Have this woman go ask for forgiveness? Why would she do as ordered?
âImpudent!â Uncle Jun grew furious at the notion, âWho do you think her ladyship is? How dare you demand her apologize to those people, youâ¦.â
BAMM!!!
Di Cang didnât want to hear another word from this foul mouth. Waving his hand, an invisible force directly slams into the seniorâs chest and knocks him to the ground, causing a mouthful of blood to come squirting out in the process.
âUncle Jun!â Growing increasingly more urgent in her face, Liu Qing Yu knew she had to do something right now. âGo prepare my things, I intend to go apologize to them in person.â
âMiss?â Losing all color from his old face, the severely injured old grandpa stares at his own lady in disbelief. âWhat are you talking about? How can youâ¦â
Taking the preemptive move by ignoring that plea, the âslaveâ acted accordingly to her own status by bending her back: âMistress, I have set the orders as you wished. Is there anything else you wish to command of me?â
Despite that voice being soft and melodic, itâs akin to a thunder striking down from above for these people. Their eyes were popping out in absolute shock.?What? Just a while ago this woman was still yapping on about killing them and now sheâs calling someone else mistress? Isnât this a bit too fast for a changeâ¦.? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMis⦠Mistress?â Uncle Jun awkwardly turns his old face towards Bai Yan, his demeanor stiff as a rock: âLady, why are you calling this woman your mistress?â
As someone with a sense of shame, Liu Qing Yu naturally didnât have the face to tell everyone she submitted because the other side forcefully made her consume a poison. So, as any shameless person would do, she lied and started spouting righteous words. âUncle Jun, Iâm only doing this because I believe my prior actions were wrong. If not for Miss Bai Yan here pointing me in the right direction, I would continue to go down the wrong path.â
