Chapter 1230 “Ning Yu’s Death (3)”
“I have lifted the contract with everyone else aside from Di Cang’s, Mother…. I got nothing to fear anymore so do not worry about me.”
Unlike the familiar contracts between herself and the rest, Di Cang’s connection was for life so she couldn’t do it on her own. Nevertheless, she’s very confident the consequences of it breaking if anything happens today wouldn’t kill her husband still so it’s fine.
Gently furrowing her brow, Bai Ning attempts to sway the girl to leave after seeing that serious face: “Yan’er, I can delay this guy for a while, you should leave here first.”
“Mother…” revealing a bitter smile, “you may not remember the past, but…. there are some words I must say now in case I don’t have that chance anymore.”
“You don’t remember me, you don’t remember Grandfather, but do you remember Yun Feng? Back then the two of you loved each other with your all, and because of that he was locked up for twenty years and lost his mind for twenty years. You are his entire hope, I can’t and I won’t let that turn into disappointment.”
Yun Feng?
Bai Ning’s face carried a look of pain over the reminder. She remembers Bai Xiachen bringing that name up at one point, though familiar to her ears, she still couldn’t remember who that person was….
Can it be, I really do have some sort of relationship with that Yun Feng?
Tightly clutching her own head, Bai Ning felt like her brain’s about to explode due to the stinging pain.
Damn it, I can’t remember anything, including that Yun Feng!
“Are you two done talking yet?” Keeper Ling cuts in with a faint smile of disinterest, “If you’ve said enough then get ready to meet your end. I’m sure Hell will welcome a pair of filthy swine’s like you two.”
Due to how cold and bitter his voice was, it immediately drew a reaction from the scum that’s standing to one side.
“Keeper Ling, didn’t you say you will help me get Ning’er? What did you mean by those words?” Ning Yuan carefully asks.
“What do I mean?” The old elder sneered at the foolish idiot, “This woman dared to attack the Celestial Palace while I and the other Keepers were in isolated training and killed numerous people under us. Do you expect me to leave her be after all the lives she took?”
Do you expect me to leave her be after all the lives she took!
The statement resonating like a clap of thunder in the scum’s head, causing him to stumble backwards in horror as he turned to face the woman he claims to love.
So this was the Celestial Palace’s goal from the start, to take Ning’er’s life?
How could I have been so foolish? I clearly knew these people hated her to the core, yet I still brought him here! If Ning’er dies today then it’s me who brought this on her!
“No! You can’t treat Ning’er like this, you promised me, you only want to tame that demonic beast under her control, how can you go back on your words? If you act like this then aren’t you afraid of the Celestial Palace losing credibility?” With every word he spoke came a redder shade of madness in the scum’s eye, causing him to tremble with anger in turn as well.
Mocking in his grin, Keeper Ling obviously knew the guy would say that when he reveals his true intent: “What of it? So what if we go back on our promise to you? Aside from an idiot like you, who else knows about the promise? If no one knows then how can it tarnish the Celestial Palace’s reputation?”
