Chapter 1381 “Come On Their Own (7)”
The twins are often accompanying each other so it’s not out of place to find Jin Tian resting at Ling Yan’s room. Coupling in with the fact that the princess had gone missing, the guard captain simply left it at that. He’s not finding this strange or anything and don’t want to stir up any more trouble than what’s already on his table. Moreover, it was Mu Ying who carried the prince into the room the last he saw, a sure sign for him that it’s not a fake on that side.
“You bunch keep looking, I’m going to report this to the king.” Without another word, Yuan Po the guard captain rushes for the study where Di cang lies.
It’s unsure if he’s just lucky or mere coincidence, but right as he’s about to barge through that door, it opened…. Reflecting into his eyes were that peerless contour of a man radiating power and dominance.
Taking to his knee in a panic: “Sire, it’s not good, the princess and queen are both gone!”
This abrupt news instantly made Di Cang’s complexion go dark. Flashing a flicker of panic, he hurriedly closed his eyes to sense his wife’s presence.
When he realizes from the contract that Bai Yan was indeed missing and not in the palace, he went white: “She’s gone? Why did she leave again? Who is it! Who spoke to my wife and said something stupid again!”
There’s no reason for Bai Yan to leave the city without telling me, unless… something else has happened.
Yuan Po timidly continues: “I do not know the exact reasoning Sire…. Only that someone told us the little princess is missing and that the queen is gone. Under these circumstances….”
Bang!
The eyes coming off of Di Cang radiated a murderous frost that was both violent and unnervingly calm, causing those around this demon king to flinch backwards.
“All I did was go into a meeting with the elders and you useless bunch have already managed to anger my wife and make her leave again. Find out who is it that’s responsible! I won’t forgive that individual! Also, where is my brother-in-law Bai Xiao?”
Yuan Po meekly answered; “Sir Bai Xiao… he’s likely still in the palace somewhere.”
Bai Xiao is still here?
That quickly doused some of the anger in the demon king because he knows his wife wouldn’t leave without her brother if she really did run away.
“Brother-in-law.” Suddenly, a voice came from the front and catches Di Cang’s attention, “I heard my sister and Ling Yan is gone?”
“Xiao’er, your sister wouldn’t have left without a reason. Something must’ve happened during this period that we’re not aware of.”
Exactly then when Di Cang wanted to go investigate the matter by going in person, another series of running footsteps catches his attention.
Kneeling there, the messenger sounded urgent: “Sire, someone is asking for a audience.”
Narrowing in his eyes: “Who is it?”
“It’s… the leopard tribe’s Mu Xue.” The messenger lowered his head even further until that forehead has touched the ground, “She says she knows where the queen and princess is.”
Instantly a shockwave rocked the study room, sending all of the books flying off the shelves and into the air. Di Cang was very pissed at this moment and it showed in the power he vented in that second.
Bai Xiao on the other hand wasn’t aware of who this Mu Xue and became perplexed by the strong reaction. Who is this Mu Xue? Why is Brother-in-law reacting so strongly?
“Let her in.” Di Cang snaps, his face expressionless and dark.
