Chapter 1056 “Zhong Yu’s Scheme (4)”
At this moment at a not so far away peak next to this township, a woman now stands staring down from above at the terrain as the bristling wind blew against her dress. The eyes she showed were sharp and bright.
“This domain doesn’t look all that different from the world outside, now I just need to find Xiachen and get him back….” Loosening her frown after that small muttering remark to herself, she promptly left the spot in a flash to head for the township at the bottom of the valley.
……
Meanwhile at the same time this was occurring, Di Cang was currently acting increasingly more annoyed as he sat on the throne seat in the Sky Clan’s settlement.
“Is there still no news about my son’s whereabout?”
“Sire, we’ve searched everywhere around the area, there’s no sign of the prince yet.” The guard answers with a nervous tremble.
That was not the right answer, causing the oppressive man’s aura to swoop over devour the poor soldier’s existence until he’s choking for air. Thankfully its then another figure came running over from the doorway to stop the act. Kneeling there, the person carefully spoke: “Sire, we’ve just received a letter from an outsider, the stranger said it was for you.”
“Bring it forward!” He growled with a menacing voice.
“Yes, Your Majesty.” In his hurry to comply, the soldier nearly tripped on his own two feet when trying to hand over the letter.
As annoyed as he was over the incapability of his own men, Di Cang didn’t have the patience to punish the second individual’s carelessness. Tearing apart the cover, he only needed a quick glance at the letter’s content to grew dark and hard in the face.
“Gather everyone, we’re heading to Long Town now!” Rapidly rising from the throne chair, his maneuver allowed the letter to slowly flutter to the floor for everyone to see.
“If the king wants to see the little prince then he will come to the Demonic Wolf Clan’s home.”
In an instant all faces were changing in various ways, but all had the same thought in mind: The prince is at the Demonic Wolf’s Clan’s place?
But before they could dwell on the issue any further, Di cang had already left them for the outside, forcing the rest to quickly follow suit. Lucky they did so too. Because right as the dangerous man was off the grounds of this settlement, a huge gulf of purplish instantly lights up across the Sky Clan’s home, destroying and incinerating the structure and grounds.
……
Wolf Manor.
Leaning his head against the bedside rail, Bai Xiachen appeared bored as he stared forward in a mindless state. He’s thinking of something just don’t know what.
Its then the door was pushed open by a hand. Looking over, he could see it was young woman walking over.
“Xiachen, you’re awake?” Carrying a tray of dainty pastries with her, Sisi (wolf lady) sounded gentle and kind as she spoke: “Mother prepared some snacks for you. Come, try some, I’m sure you are hungry by now.”
Not rejecting the offer, the little steambun first picked up a pastry to take a sniff. When his nose found nothing wrong with it, his expression promptly relaxed.
Mmm, it’s not poisonous…
But the thought only lasted a bite before the kid spit the stuff back out.
“So gross, it’s nasty, who made this food? Are they trying to hurt me with this?”
Sisi’s face was stiff as a rock right now. She just couldn’t believe how the little fella could detest her cooking so much. This wolf lady could swear that in this Long Town, her cooking skills are top notch. Even if its not he best, it’s among one of the best and couldn’t be matched.
However, one good thing did come out of this for her and that was Bai Xiachen’s willingness to speak. Thank goodness this child is not a retard and a mute….
“Xiachen, this is what mother here made for you, don’t you like it?”
Flickering with a light in his big blue eyes, Bai Xiachen’s cuddly and cute face revealed a bright smile when meeting the wolf lady’s gaze.
