Novel Bin Chapter 2004 - “Demon Realm (2)”
This time she did not hang her head down but instead began surveying the surrounding environment as told.
……
Demon Realm.
Di Ling Yan sat on the edge of the Demon Mountain with her chin propped against her own hands, those eyes bored and longing. “Suzaku, when will my mother and father come back? Now that even Big Brother is gone, it’s only me and Second Brother left.”
The four sacred beasts were all standing behind the baby princess and became emotionally sad over her question. There’s hardly any life around the palace as of late so it’s no wonder the atmosphere was depressing.
“Princess,” Suzaku the red flaming lady squatted down and gently hugged the baby’s body, “you don’t have to worry, Mistress and His Majesty will return soon, and your big brother the crown prince already left to bring them home. It won’t be long until that day comes.”
The consoling words didn’t work. Instead of making the baby girl peach up, she hung her head again between her legs like a depressed child.
“Suzaku, don’t lie to me, the place where my mother and father went must be very dangerous for them to not return. I know they’re risking their lives for me… if-if only I didn’t have the flame bead inside my body.”
In this way, neither Father nor Mother would go to such a place.
Tears slowly trickled down that cheek at the thought, causing Di Ling Yan’s body to shrink further into a clump of sadness.
“Little Princess, don’t you believe in your family?” The young-looking teen that was Little Rice the White Tiger walked up to the girl’s side and patted her shoulder, “I have been following Mistress and Young Master from the beginning, never have I seen them fail or suffer any losses. This time will be no different, I promise you that.”
Looking up with a weeping face, “I believe in my family, but….. I still feel uncomfortable inside like they won’t come back.”
If it wasn’t for that feeling in her heart, Di Ling Yan wouldn’t be so sad since it’s always been like this for the baby princess. Whenever a bad omen occurs, bad things happens not long after.
“Suzaku, Little Rice, Black Turtle, Tsing Yi, can you take me to find my mother? I also want to go to where they are….”
The phoenix lady’s heart ached with immense pain at that request: “Princess, please be good, you are still too young to go anywhere. It’s not the time for you to encroach on such a journey….”
Little Rice also wanted to say something after that miserable plea; however, he stopped after taking notice to the flash of light shooting over from the distance.
“Mo Li Shang?” Little Rice widens his eyes at the sight of the young man that appeared.
He still had a great impression of this person who they picked up below the Medicine Sect that day. Normally it would be a great occasion for the reunion, but this timing and location was leaving him on a wary note.
Why…… did he come to the Demon Realm?
Unlike White Tiger’s perplexed thought, Suzaku’s reaction was much more powerful. She’s locked onto Mo Li Shang’s figure and clenched that face in a manner of someone on high alert.
