Chapter 1096 “War’s Prelude (6)”

A cold flash emulates out of Yun Ruo Xi’s eyes as she slowly turned around. However, that quickly changed to disgust when her sight fell upon her own maid that’s standing in wait. It’s a look of loathing and irritation because the maid was originally from that woman whom she forcibly grabbed over.

“Come with me!” she snaps.

The maid needed no hinting at what the other person wanted to do. She’s been with this horrible mistress for a thousand years, so how could she not know Yun Ruo Xi’s habit….

Just that in the eyes of the outsider, this prestigious lady was kind and beautiful so even if she appeared with scars and bruises all over that body, no one would suspect the other person.

……

Holy Island.

Inside the bamboo cabin, Bai Yan continues to snuggle into Di Cang’s arm when the sun came through the window. However, her expression weren’t that of peace or comfort, it’s a tight furrowed face like she’s having some sort of nightmare.

……

In the dream.

Beneath a dark sky of unknown origin, Bai Yan stands in a daze as she stared down at the familiar scene that’s currently happening beneath herself on this mountain.

It’s a little girl covered in blood, and she’s struggling to push the other little girl beside her forward.

“This place should be safe so those bad people shouldn’t be chasing us anymore.” Relieved, the little girl takes a medicine out and attempts to feed her friend.

Seeing this scene, Bai Yan’s heart instinctively clenched up and made her body move on its own of wanting to snatch that bottle away.

“No, don’t save her, don’t save her!” There’s horror in that voice. Perhaps its fate that’s guiding her, but she has a strong belief that its wrong to save the other girl and that the move of kindness it would ruin herself in the process.

Pity……

Right as her hand was about to make contact, what came into touch was nothing but air. Her fingers simply passed through the bottle.

That’s right, she doesn’t belong in this place, meaning she couldn’t stop any of this….

As the scene continues to unfold, the injured little girl has now finished taking the medicine. “Bai Yan, thank you for saving me once again.”

The mini version of her responds with a genuine smile of warmth: “We’ve been dependent on each other for so many years so of course I will save you. Oh right, are you hurt anywhere else?” That said, she then makes a frown as she remembered something else. Removing the crescent moon shaped amulet from her neck: “Ruo Xi, I was born with this amulet so its been with me for a long time. I don’t know what use it has…. But it has protected me through my life. Now, I’m giving it to you.”

As Bai Yan stood helplessly beside the two children, the panic in her heart continued to grow more severe when the amulet was finally brought up.

“Can’t give, you can’t give this amulet to anyone!” she screams in agony.

“Hmm?” The mini version of Bai Yan suddenly raises her head with a puzzled look: “Did you hear someone crying out to me?”

Ruo Xi shakes her head: “No, it must be your illusion….”

“Maybe.”
