Chapter 1987: Di Cangs Recover (1)
"Xiachen." Bai Yan could tell it was her precious boy outside the courtyard with just one glance.
Right now the little kid's face was clean and handsome, only marred by the tattered clothes he wore due to not having a replacement. Even so, it won't stop the steambun from calling out.
"Mother…" He loses his angry face and dons the most brilliant and shining smile he has. It's his usual demeanor when facing the woman of his life.
Di Cang's gaze also turned to the little boy in question, but instead of the happy reunion that's supposed to be between father and son, the demon king only had a doubtful expression.
"Xia… Xiachen… Bai Xiachen?" The name appeared involuntarily in his mind, and that changed the initial confusion to a dazed softness.
"Mother, did Father go stupid? Why is he looking at me with those eyes?" This behavior was something never before shown to the steambun from his old man, for that, it made Bai Xiachen jerk backward and look towards Bai Yan for help.
"You're my son are you not?" Di Cang seemed to have forgotten about the war happening around himself and slowly walked towards the boy.
Bai Xiachen became even more confused: "Mother, really went stupid! He doesn't even know who I am!"
Bai Yan pursed her lips and said nothing, holding onto the pill to come before her husband.
"I've finished refining the medicine. Take this. It will heal your injuries." Her words fluttered into the demon king's ear, causing the man to melt away in a creamy fashion.
"Okay." Di Cang smiles and happily reaches over to take the pill off the wife's hand.
This wasn't good, not good at all for Willow. The monarch frantically ran forward in haste, "Don't take the pill!"
Due to the nervousness of what's to come, her voice was shaky and unstable. It couldn't be helped. It was extremely hard for the woman to harm the demon king to begin with. If Di Cang regained his strength then she stood no chance with his guard up.
Mo Xin Yan didn't react like her shifu though despite being restrained. Her sight had locked onto the steambun and his face, which she promptly compared it to the man. It's then that a surge of cold frost swept up from her feet and into the lady's heart.
This man… has married and with children?
And the son is already so big?
Mo Xin Yan's heart shuddered at the irony she brought upon herself. But that emotion soon transformed into a bitter rage that wanted to suffocate her entire existence.
If this is what it means to love someone, then I…. never want to fall in love in the first place!
That way, I wouldn't be in so much pain.
Boom!
In the instant that Willow rushed towards Di Cang, the man who had originally turned his back on her swung around and released a wild storm. Their powers collided violently in the air, throwing everything in their vicinity away like scraps in the wind.
