“Okay.” Climbing up from behind, Di Ling Yan the peachy baby girl didn’t object to the idea of getting a piggyback ride since her older brother’s figure appeared the safest……

  Boom!

  In a forest that’s perennially dimmed by the dense shrubbery, lightning pounded away at a certain location where a severely injured man stood. There’s hardly any color left on that face, and even more blood continued to gurgle out of that mouth.

  This time, am I really going to die?

  Closing his eyes at what’s to come, the bird man remanences back to his first meeting with Bai Yan and her daughter Di Ling Yan. Inexplicably, despite the dire spot he’s in right now with the lightning clouds ready to pound down again to finish himself off, the guy actually formed a thin arcing smile due to the ray of light in his heart.

  If I die, I won’t be able to stay by the princess’s side, nor…… can I repay the queen’s grace again.

  “Back then it was you who saved me from the darkness, yet I mistakenly thought of others as you. I thought I could use my life to protect your daughter as amends for your virtue, but…… it looks like I’m going to break my word.” Another rumble from above told him then the time was near, “Queen, Princess…… If there is a next life, I will never recognize the wrong person again, I will use my life to repay you.”


  Boom!

  Following those final thoughts, Winger’s stoic figure crumbled, crashing down to the ground where only scorched earth awaited his unmoving body……

  Demon Realm’s palace.

  Di Ling Yan was keeping herself tightly wrapped to her older brother’s back as she was being carried around when a tense sadness gripped her little heart for no apparent reason. For this reasoning, tears oozed out of those eyes in waves.

  Bai Xiachen felt the wet patches on his back of course and grew frantic. Hurrying to lie the little baby down to check up on her. “Ling Yan, what’s wrong?”


  The baby girl merely shook her head: “Big Brother, I don’t know, but I just want to cry……”


  “Don’t cry Ling Yan, if you cry…… I will feel very bad if you do.” Finding himself useless against that weeping, he instinctively reached over to wipe some of those droplets.

  Unfortunately for them both, the younger sibling didn’t find the gesture comforting; in fact, the unease in her heart only grew with each passing second. Eventually, that sobbing weep blew into a loud clamoring cry.

  “Can you tell big brother here what’s wrong at least?” Gone white by this point due to his own inability, Bai Xiachen flails around with fluster showing across his face.

  “Ling Yan!” Suddenly, an anxious cry came from the rear.

  By the time the baby girl turned her head around, a pair of hands had already reached over to pick her up to bring the child into a warm gentle hold. Her cry brought aching hurt to even Bai Yan who overheard the noise and came running.

  “Mother, what’s happening to her?” Bai Xiachen anxiously asks with his miserable expression, “She’s been crying nonstop, I don’t know how to comfort her like this. Do you know what’s going on?”


  By this time others were also being attracted to this location due to the constant tearing. The most notable would be Di Cang who stood immediately came over with his daunting aura to wrap his arms around the wife and daughter.
