Chapter 1997 “Together Till Death (3)”
Di Cang did not speak then, only watching that smiling face of his wife that always brought peace and comfort to his own existence.
“Later… I found out how we had a past life together, of how you gave up so much for me, of how much pain you endured for me. Since then, I vowed to never to leave your side at any cost. Wherever you go, I will be there standing by your side.”
The fact that Bai Yan stepped into this Hell Domain to find him meant the demon queen had decided not to leave unless they were doing so together. Anything less was unacceptable.
“Mother,” Bai Xiachen got up to his mother and made a firm face, “it’s not easy for me to come here so you can’t force me away. I’m staying too.”
Bai Yan’s heart ached over those words as she slowly closed her eyes….
The road to the Hell Domain wasn’t easy for me so how could it be easy for Xiachen? It must’ve hurt so much. The sea of flames, the raining blades of ice, he had to endure all of that to reach us.
Bai Yan’s nose was uncomfortably itchy as the tears gradually formed due to those thoughts. Then raising her hand, she caressed that small head and spoke: “Okay, we’re all staying together….”
We are a family of three, never to be separated in life or death!
Bai Xiachen smiled brightly at his demand getting answered. Wrapping his arms around the demon queen’s waist, he rubbed his face against her chest with all his might to show his affection.
“Mother, with you and Father here, I am not afraid of anything.”
You are my courage. No sword or flame can scare me as long as I have you by my side! There’s nothing I can’t do!
By this point the situation was growing more desperate and dire for anyone still left in this area. The seemingly bottomless chasm in the ground has now encompassed the entire Endless Forest with more signs of it growing. On top of this, the sky also started to warp at some point, making aerial escape impossible.
Bai Yan’s naturally knew their options to leave was diminishing by the second. Even so, she didn’t budge and instead turned to Mo Li Shang who’s been perfectly fine on where he stood. “Shang Shang, you once told me you will never hurt me. Can I trust you on that promise?”
The handsome yet baby-faced young man met her gaze head-on, those eyes clear and without pollution as he nodded.
“Alright, then I’ll believe you this time without reservation. Help me pass the Divine Water Stone to the Demon Realm and hand it over to Suzaku’s hand. She will know what to do with it, okay?”
The mystery behind Mo Li Shang was still a question that needs answering, but their friendship doesn’t carry any impurities, that much she’s certain.
Not saying anything first, the baby-faced man reached over and took the Divine Water Stone off Bai Yan’s hand. Then after a good while of silence, he finally uttered the only thing he could because he knew what this meant: “Yan Yan, I won’t let you down.”
Bai Yan smiled in relief after that promise. She needed nothing more from her friend. Then swinging back around to face Willow who’s been glaring at their family: “If you want to separate our family then know that it’s impossible. Wherever Di Cang goes, I go. He and I will never be apart in this life!”
