Chapter 1614 “Heartache (4)”

“Dragony?” Initially Bai Yan expected to reenter the Celestial Realm from somewhere closer to where she left off, yet that wasn’t the case, nor did she expect to find her goddaughter lying there on the ground all bloodied up and in tatters.

“What’s going on? Who is the one who hurt you like this?” She quickly descends from the sky and lands before the stunned looking lass, her arms open and readying to reach out to help.

The dragoness didn’t utter a word though at those welcoming arms; instead, she wholeheartedly threw herself over to the demon queen and wrapped those little arms around the woman’s waist, refusing to let go in fear of losing her for a second time.

“Dragony, tell me, what is going on here?” Caressing the girl’s back in a soothing gesture after nearly losing her balance, Bai Yan could tell something terrible must’ve occurred to rattle her daughter to this extent.

I only left for a short while, how did things turn out like this? I bet it’s those from the Celestial Palace who did this again....

“Wah! Wah!” Under that soft cooing, Dragony finally crumbled and began to weep in earnest. There’s no madness in the eye, nor cold menacing hatred for the world in that sob, only the pitiful crying of a sad little girl who suddenly got her world back. “They told me you and Brother Xiachen were dead... Wah, I don’t want you to die, I don’t want you!”

Recognizing the princess’s state of mind has returned, First Elder who’s been dreadfully worried up until now could feel at ease and released the tense grip around his hand. He was ready to move if the princess attacked the demon queen, that’s how alarmed the old demon felt when he saw the girl jumping at the older woman.

Likewise, Bai Xiachen also saw the unstable mind of Dragony who continued to cry. He didn’t how to show his emotions right now aside from clenching his fist in frustration. He knew it’s not his fault, but he could disregard the guilt in felt inside for not being around for the lass when she needed him the most.

I will definitely make those who hurt her pay! The Steambun vowed inwardly, his eyes firm and strong.

“Dragony, I will not die, Xiachen will not die, and we will never leave you.” Bai Yan says using her soft gentle voice reserved only for the kids.

How can they claim I’m dead before my daughter? With Dragony’s personality, she would never be able to take the trauma. I will never forgive those bastards!

“Really?” Dragony finally lets up her damp mood and looked up to face the demon queen, “You’re not just trying to coax me? You’ll really never leave?”

The girl’s really afraid, fearing right down to her core. No one knows the crumbling feeling of her world disappearing during these past few days. Unlike her childhood where no one loved her, Bai Yan was the only sunshine in her life. Without that light, there’s only darkness and despair.

“Really...” Inhaling deeply, Bai Yan forcibly presses down the swirling emotion from within to show a reassuring smile: “When did mother lie to you? Now take a medicinal pill and recover first, okay?”
