Chapter 1936 “Nightmare (4)”
The Bai Yan of a thousand years ago may not have made the promise to Di Cang so quickly.
But she wasn’t from a thousand years ago, she’s from the modern age…..
They have experienced so much turbulence already, what was there to hesitate about?
At that moment, the haze in Di Cang’s heart seems to be blown away by the wind, and a beam of sunlight shone through from the clouds to warm his whole existence.
“Girl, is your words serious?”
“Di Cang,” Bai Yan lets go of his lip, her expression looking solemn, “whether in this life or in the next, you are my only husband. If we can’t survive in this life, I will wait until our next. You must wait for me…. Even if you forget me, no one is allowed to be around you until I show up!”
Grinning like a fool, the demon king pulls the lady into his arms and leans down to peck her on the lips. This was his first kiss so he didn’t dare to be aggressive. He treasures her, there’s no way he would allow his own misgivings to hurt her.
“Girl, you will be my only woman, in this life and the lives to come. No matter how long I have to wait, it can only be you…”
……
Time flies.
What followed could only be described as a dream in Bai Yan’s eyes. Those from the Celestial Palace did not want to let them go so they sent numerous masters to hunt them down. Even Chu Yi God eventually gave chase with his own people with the plan of bringing the woman back.
Of course, Di Cang and the four sacred beasts protected her like history ordained, and like history dictated, they all died at the hands of the Celestial Palace.
She had seen these things once already, but now she’s actually able to experience it herself. It’s so heart-wrenching that she wanted to rip her own soul out.
But fate wouldn’t allow that. In the end Bai Yan could only helplessly watch them from the sidelines.
These things, like a nightmare, replayed over and over again in her mind in a never-ending loop.
She wanted to wake up from this nightmare, but every time she awoke, she was by Di Cang’s side again. Even though the lady knew what would come and happen next, nothing ever changes.
Such a feeling of powerlessness was torturing. It’s beyond cruel.
“Girl, what’s wrong?”
When she awoke again in this new loop, Di Cang was already beside her with a worried face and hugging her shivering body.
“Tell me what happened. Is it because of what happened to Azure Dragon and them…?”
“Di Cang, tell me everything that happened is a nightmare, please tell me it’s all fake and not true?” Bai Yan’s body curled closer to the man’s chest. She didn’t want this to continue and pleased.
Bai Yan was no fool. Suzaku already told her the Hell Domain would cause her to go through nightmares. Unless she finds a way out, she would never be able to leave again. Yet, despite knowing this fact, she felt trapped and powerless to do anything aside from weeping and acting like a damsel in distress.
