Chapter 1815 “Admiration (3)”
“Yan Yan!” A voice of joy came from behind.
Bai Yan instantly swung herself around and saw that familiar face. There’s pure excitement that’s akin to someone recovering their lost treasure.
However, right as the demon queen wanted to open her mouth and say something, she got cut off by a tense hug from the other person. She could tell right away due to that trembling arm – her mother Bai Ning was scared. It didn’t help either that her should had become soaked with tears a few seconds later.
“Thank goodness, thank goodness you’re back….”
Yun Feng is already in danger.
I don’t want to lose my only daughter too….
Such pain, I can’t bear it.
“Mother, were you here the entire time after I left?” Bai Yan asks with pressed lips.
Too fearful to let go of those hands, Bai Ning nods profusely like a panicking mother: “You suddenly disappeared so I’ve been looking for you in the ruins. It’s been three months since you were gone.”
Three months?
A trance took over the demon queen’s mind at those two words.
It’s been three months…. Then how long did me and Father spend inside that place?
“Mother, we don’t have time to talk, something might’ve happened to Ling Yan. We must leave this ruin immediately.”
Furthermore, she also needs to return to save her own father so time was imperative here.
“What did you say?” Bai Ning’s face suddenly changed for the worse, her hand openly shaking as the grandmother gasped with horror. “You said something happened to Ling Yan? How could that have happened? Didn’t you entrust her to that Elder Sky?”
Ji Sky’s personality or way of handling things didn’t sit well with either lady, but there’s no question about the old senior’s strength. There are unlikely anyone capable of getting past that old man unless he wills it.
“I don’t know, I only got this sinking feeling that it’s bad. My intuition has always been strong so I can’t ignore this.” That said, the demon queen reached back with a hand towards her own chest on where the heart lies: “Mother, we need to leave now.”
The ominous sensation has grown to the point she could barely stay put anymore. She’s seriously afraid she might be too late.
Yet instead of moving right away, Bai Ning’s face got extremely white as she stood there.
Noticing this strangeness: “Mother, what’s wrong?”
Perhaps the voice of her own precious daughter finally brought the grandmother back to reality. First making a distraught face, Bai Ning spoke with a stuttering: “Yan Yan, after you were gone, I began to panic and searched high and low for you. Then I recalled it was Di Cang who sent me here so I was certain he could somehow locate you. But when I wanted to go outside and find a way to contact him, the ruins suddenly started to collapse. The exit… it was sealed off at that time.”
Di Cang sent my mother here to the Heavenly Domain?
Bai Yan became shocked by this detail.
Those enemies which attacked the Demon Realm still hasn’t been eradicated so there’s no way Di Cang could leave unless he hands their sons off to someone reliable. Since there’s no one at that caliber, Bai Yan understood her husband wouldn’t be able to help. But what’s the deal with sending Bai Ning over? When did that guy have such an ability?
Of course, these problems weren’t the main issue right now, saving Ling Yan was!
“Does that mean I can’t get out of the ruins?”
Bai Ning smiled bitterly: “That might be the case…. Yan Yan, there’s a likely chance we won’t be able to leave.”
“Impossible!” Bai Yan punched a stone pillar nearby out of frustration. “I refuse to believe that! I must leave right now, Ling Yan is waiting for me to go save her!”
Looking at the borderline crazy look in her own daughter, Bai Ning wanted to say something but swallowed the words back down at the end. She knows her consoling words were pointless and would only make it worse.
