Chapter 1879 “Mother is Heaven (1)”
“Okay.” Bai Yan relents and nod.
She believes in the power of her husband and trusts he could cope with any hurdle that might come their way.
“Right, Di Cang…”
She seemed to of thought of something: “I haven’t seen Shifu and Grandfather and them for a long time so I intend to go back with the kids this time around to let them meet.”
Besides, she has an apprentice in the Liu Huo Kingdom. Even if she hasn’t been around in the human world for years by this point, she still liked the boy who reminded her of herself in the past. This time she intends to act the role of a shifu and properly teach him something.
“Then take Suzaku and them with you.” Wrinkling his brow at the unexpected idea, Di Cang suggests taking the sacred beasts to act as guardians in his stead.
“No, I’ll be back soon so there’s no need. Besides, no one can threaten me if those monarchs don’t show up. Don’t worry, I’ll be safe.” Bai Yan smiles in reassurance.
She’s half a step into being a Divine Lord herself, that’s the same level as those monarchs. Unless someone at her father’s level show up, Bai Yan had complete confidence to defeat the enemy or at least escape unscathed.
Seeing her insistency, the demon king knew there was nothing more to be said about that matter. “Come back soon….”
“I will…” Without intention, Bai Yan’s face was all smiling once she met his gaze.
“Mother, I want to take Dragony with me.” Bai Xiachen suddenly turned up between his parent’s sides and popped this request, “Dragony is also my sister, I want to take her with us if we’re leaving.”
Making a faint smile at her son’s hopeful eye, Bai Yan felt guilty at what she was about to say: “Dragony can’t come with us.”
“Why?” The steambun fell into shock.
Why can’t Dragony come with us?
“I haven’t had time to tell you so this is a good chance. Your auntie Xiao Wan has temporarily left the Demon Realm in search of State Teacher’s reincarnation. Dragony also went with her as security since her strength has grown a lot.”
Auntie Xiao Wan and Dragony are gone?
Bai Xiachen made a dazed-looking face as his mind processed this bombshell. Moments later, the emotional loss couldn’t be hidden from the boy’s expression.
“Mother,” it’s then Di Ling Yan threw herself into Bai Yan’s arms after hearing the news, “whenw ill Sister Dragon come back?”
“I speculate…. It will likely take some days.” Bai Yan tried to be as vague as possible.
She doesn’t know when the two would return so this was the best excuse.
“That’s enough questions for your mother.” Di Cang’s brow furrowed up at the persistence of the kids and immediately shot a warning glance at his eldest, “she needs to rest.”
Originally the steambun wanted to voice his displeasure at the sudden halting of their conversation, but his words were promptly stuffed back into his throat at the face his old man was making.
“But I haven’t seen Mother for so long….”
“Do you want another sister or not?” Di Cang asked with an air of triumph.
A brightness instantly shot out of the steambun’s eyes then, but that light soon dimmed after seeing the delicate face of his younger sister who’s now in Bai Yan’s arms.
“Father, you can’t keep fooling me with that anymore, I’ve already got Ling Yan so I’m satisfied.”
