Chapter 1492 “The Sky’s Might (5)”
Bai Yan slowly closes her eyes, ignoring the old ignorant fool words to focus on the peace inside herself.
“Grandma, what’s wrong with Mother?” Bai Xiachen nervously holds onto Bai Ning’s hand and asked with those big eyes of his. He’s afraid, afraid of the worst possible outcome coming true again.
Bai Ning did not answer the child’s question though, only fixing her eyes solely on her own daughter and not knowing what to think of it….
Woosh!
Suddenly, the amulet bursts forth a gentle light, shrouding both Bai Yan and Winger in a ray of warmth since he’s right beside the lady.
Originally Keeper Zun still wanted to continue his persuasion when this occurred; however, he stopped on the very second that light exploded out to cover the two. He’s frozen there, standing like an idiot that didn’t know what to make of this reality.
What’s going on?
Why is this not making sense….
Is the world making a joke with us? Why is Ruo Xi’s amulet showing a reaction to Bai Yan?
The old witch also saw this of course. Likewise, she froze for a little bit before breaking out into horror and panic. In a brisk of instinctive desire for survival, she rushed for Bai Yan’s spot in order to steal the amulet back.
Bang!
Unfortunately for the deceiver, things won’t turn out that easily in a situation like this. Before Yun Ruo Xi could even make contact with those filthy claws of hers, the light shrouding Bai Yan and Winger suddenly turned fierce and threatening, blowing her out dozens of meters away and letting her puke blood due to the recoiling force.
“Bai Yan, it’s mine, that’s mine, return it to me, give me back what’s mine….”
She gave me the amulet back then so it’s mine now, what right does she have in taking it back?
If it was in the past then the Keepers would crowd over to help pick the old witch up, yet no one did today. They’re too focused on what they’re seeing and forgot she existed.
“I don’t remember what happened a thousand years ago anymore,” her eyes sneering and full of contempt at Yun Ruo Xi, “but… I once had a dream. I dreamed that I personally handed All Heaven over to a little girl by the name of Ruo Xi so it can protect her, but if I had known you were such a backstabbing witch inside then I would never have done so.”
Its only at this point and moment in their lives does the Keepers of the Celestial Palace know what it means to be smacked with a stick. This stick, it hits them hard and dizzying, leaving them unable to think properly.
Did Bai Yan just say…. she gave her the amulet?
With their understanding of the old witch’s personality, they naturally would believe it to be untrue.
But….
It’s clear that the amulet activated because of Bai Yan’s touch.
It protected her!
