Chapter 614 “Beating Qing Xue (1)”
“Mother?” Seeing Bai Yan’s dazed expression, the baby boy quickly wrinkled up his lovely forehead and thought, What happened to Mother?
The soft little voice of the steambun did grab Bai Yan’s mind back to reality, however, her focus clearly wasn’t entirely here with them.
Touching her son’s head in a comforting manner: “I am fine, you and your auntie can take Dragony off to play first. I want to be alone for a little bit.” Ever since she came out of her closed-door training, a sense of restlessness has been plaguing this woman’s heart.
“Okay,” raising his eyes to meet hers, “I will not trouble Mother then. If there’s anything disturbing you though, Mother can always confide in me. I will always be Mother’s favourite son and be your great protector.”
Feeling the warmth running straight into her heart, Bai Yan just couldn’t resist leaning down to give her son a peck on the cheek despite it being a public place. He’s just too adorable and lovable to not do that.
“Go, I will catch up very soon.”
“Byebye Mother.” Making a goodbye gesture, Bai Xiachen then went ahead to lead Dragony over to Di Xiao Wan’s side: “Auntie, let’s go shopping okay?”
Feeling moved to tears by this request, the princess finally felt useful for once.
Just that…
“What happened to Sister-in-law?” her pretty eyes were full of doubts which reflected in that hesitant tone.
Shaking his little head in return, Bai Xiachen answers honestly: “I don’t know, maybe Mother misses Baddie Father…” Biting his lip, the boy makes a frustrated look while hanging his head.
No matter what happened in the past, Mother would never keep secrets from me, but now….
“Auntie,” after a moment of his silence, the boy seems to have regained some of his vigor upon coming to some sort of conclusion. “Before Baddie Father told me I could enhance my strength by coming to the Demon Realm. Do you know where I can get help for that?”
“This…” Scratching her head over that dilemma, the demon princess sounded stumped: “I don’t really know. Its likely only State Teacher and my brother would know.”
Sighing at that answer, it was as the kid thought. It looks like I would need to go look for Baddie Father, only then will I be able to get stronger.
……
Atop of a mountain peak that’s reached up to the clouds, a certain woman of extraordinary beauty was currently resting against the big oak tree growing here.
“The scenery of this Demon Realm really is different from the mortal world.” Looking up at the blood colored moon that’s perennially hanging in the sky, Bai Yan’s eyes showed a hint of fondness for this sort of picture. “It’s getting late, I should get back to Xiachen and them.”
But just as she’s about to leave after getting up, that’s when her ears picked up a slithering sly voice from the corner of her eyes.
“Who, come out!”
Stepping forward from the flowered covered rocks was a woman donning a light blue dress, her face cold and proud as she confronted Bai Yan’s stare.
“What’s the matter?” Likely able to perceive the fact that the newcomer came with ill intent, her voice was sharp and snappy.
“Queen.” Qing Xue didn’t mind the poor reception and donned a cold smile of her own, just that its also mixed with a certain level of mockery. “I came today to tell you a few things less you stay in the dark….”
“What is it?” Bai Yan had no reason to be rash after hearing that, only leaning her back against the big oak tree with that confident smile of hers.
