Chapter 1628 “Jealousy (3)”
“Hmm,” caressing her chin in happy thought, “out of consideration for the child’s sake, I will temporarily agree with you. But if you dare take a concubine or sort, I will definitely break your leg!” Di Xiao Wan then waves her fist at him in a threatening manner to act all ferocious, however, it only made her all the cuter in the man’s eye.
“Xiao Wan, when have you ever seen meww touch another woman?” Unintimidated, State Teacher happily clasped the girl’s fist and causes her to go silent.
It’s as the man says, he’s been alone for many years, never once touching another female in all the long years he’s crushed on her.
“If I can do it before then I can continue to do so all the way into the future. My eyes only have you.” He reaffirms his stance by using that serious face.
The demon princess openly giggled at that confession: “Then I believe you.”
Seeing Di Xiao Wan finally accepting his advances, State Teacher’s mood flew into an elated clarity, his face smiling like the spring breeze on a warm summer’s day. However, not everything was as nice as it seems on the surface. Unlike the pair who had just accepted each other, the model lady behind them had started to make a very jealous gaze in which she hid by lowering her head.
……
The Celestial Palace.
Inside the courtyard of this once great structure, countless occupants are currently shivering in fear while kneeling on the ground before Bai Yan’s might.
“Where are the Keepers?” She asks with narrowed eye, her voice condensing into a sharp blade that held them at the neck.
The lady’s aura was simply too immense right now, crushing and sending fear into these defenders who had lost all will to resist. To be fair, they are not cowards, if it meant fighting or being mocked as such, they would surely pick death over mockery. However, the Keepers have already announced to the world that Bai Yan’s the true owner of All Heaven. Without her, there wouldn’t be any hope for the Celestial Realm during the impending calamity.
“Your Highness, we really don’t know where the Keepers have gone. After they left that day, none of them returned.”
“Don’t know?” Bai Yan sneered in a sarcastic tone, “So they are turning into cowards and refusing to show their faces? They hurt so many of my family, do they really believe they can escape my wrath?”
So what if those old fools regret their actions? The crimes they committed on me and my family is unforgivable!
“Please, we really didn’t know anything about what happened in the past, nor do we have any involvement in the event. Please spare us, we don’t know anything.”
“I will leave what happened a thousand years ago aside for now, I can’t remember all of the details either. Nevertheless, that doesn’t absolve any of you the sins they committed. Over the millennium, how many demons and demonic creatures have you murdered in the meantime? As their queen, I have to avenge.”
The backs of these shivering defenders curled even lower, trying hard to hide their own existence in front of those words.
“I’ll give you half a month to find them out for me, and if they don’t come out after half a month, I’ll destroy your Celestial Palace!”
