Chapter 1892 “Reunion (8)”
At the end of the day, her voice sounded weak as those eyes nervously scanned the area for said demon king. Chu Yi Yi was honestly afraid of Di Cang bursting out of hiding and breaking her neck when she’s least expected it.
It’s scary to even think about it in fact.
“Chu Yi Yi!” Bai Yan’s black face spoke with gritted teach, “You smothered me with your saliva….. if there’s a next time then you better keep three feet away from me at all times!”
Shrinking her neck in at the outraged demon queen, Chu Yi Yi knew her friend had a phobia against dirty things: “I’ll go pack up right away! You go see my father now bye!!”
Dropping that down, the Holy Land princess disappeared in a blur. It’s a new record for this naughty witch when it comes to fleeing.
“Humph, we’re going too then.” Holding her twins with each hand, Bai Yan began to move when she suddenly stopped and shot a glance back at the three old gramps watching her from behind.
“Shifus, when I’ve solved everything, I’ll be back…”
As reluctant as they are about separating again so soon, the three elders didn’t try to keep her behind.
“Okay…” That’s all they could utter out, stuffing those emotional words inside for another day.
……..
By the lake, the disciples were still silently waiting for Bai Yan’s possible appearance. They are very excited at the opportunity of meeting the owner of the Holy Island.
Sure, they aren’t certain of Bai Yan’s identity and didn’t know her name, but the reaction from Chu Yi Yi told them all they needed to know. Earlier, all they managed to get out was that a woman had headed to the island with a bunch of kids, and then the princess bolted away in glee without asking for any details. It’s well known only one person could get Chu Yi Yi so riled up in this place.
Finally, their patients were rewarded by a red female gradually appearing in their sight.
“This…” the girl in the pink hurried forward and nervously spoke first. There’s an unbridled level of worship in her eyes, “Excuse me, are you the rumored world’s strongest and the owner of the Holy Island?”
Bai Yan’s footsteps stopped. Turning around, she faintly smiled at the inexperienced youngsters: “No one can claim to be the strongest. As for the owner of the Holy Island…. You could say that.”
Several of the disciples giggled with glee as they got the confirmation.
She admitted it! She is that legendary person!
“Sen… Senior, that…” the pink girl looked shy and timid, “You are my goal. In the future…. I will train hard. I hope I can one day be qualified to follow you from behind.”
First giving this brave child a glance, Bai Yan suddenly smiled like she’s looking into her own past: “What’s your name?”
“Autumn, my name is Autumn with a surname Forget.”
“Forget Autumn? Alright Autumn. When you grow strong enough, you can come to me…” Bai Yan liked the name and didn’t reject the idea.
That done, the demon queen went ahead to continue on her way. Even though her steps aren’t big or wide, but her figure had disappeared entirely from the disciples line of sight in mere moments.
“Senior Sister Zhang Yun, just now she… did she say yes?” The pink girl was so excited that she couldn’t hold it down and began jumping, “but I didn’t expect to have this chance to speak with the strongest person in the world!”
Zhang Yun chuckled at her junior’s cheerful voice like she just got a present: “Actually, you should’ve asked her for some pointers instead. Perhaps your abilities would’ve grown by leaps and bounds as a result. Didn’t you mention you were trying your hands in alchemy? She is also famous for her Dan pills you know.”
