441 XIAO TIANYAOs MEMORY END (1/2)
The sound of Xiao Mugi calling out for her alerted Luna and Xiao Tianyao.
Slowly, Xiao Tianyao tilted his head toward the direction of the voice.
”Ma…”
Xiao Mugi called his mother again, this time, despite the immense pain in her chest and her head that throbbing with pain, Luna forced herself to stand up.
She heaved a heavy breath when she grabbed the edge of table to stabilize her body, with great effort she managed to pushed herself up and the moment she stood up, Xiao was on the way to looking for the source of the voice.
The urge to protect her son gave Luna new strength. She brought her limp body as she hobbled to the place where she had hid Xiao Mugi.
She has to save her son.
Xiao Tianyao strolled the room and it didn't take him a long time to find the toddler who was crawling on the floor.
The baby Xiao Mugi lifted his face and blinked at his father who was standing in front of his eyes. He giggled when Xiao Tianyao raised his sword and the sparkling from the sun that reflected on the blade fell on his face.
He liked the sparkling things as he reached out his short hand to reach out onto it, laughing when his father was looking back at him.
His baby brain guessed the man was playing with him. Happily he was asking to be lifted up.
However, in the other hand Luna looked at with horror in her eyes when he saw Xiao mugi was right under Xiao Tianyao range of his sword attack.
Without thinking twice, Luna bit down her lips and mentally embraced herself for another excruciating pain that was going to happen as she lunged herself at her son.
At the same time Xiao Tianyao stabbed down his sword.
On the floor, Xiao Mugi was still giggling over the sparkling thing on Xiao Tianyao's hand.
All the things were happening at once.
Fortune still on Luna's side since she managed to reach her precious son before Xiao Tianyao's sword did. But, his sword stabbed her back and pierced through her heart and cut Xiao Mugi's neck in her arms.
The toddler was crying because of the pain in his neck and his blood started oozing out, not to mention the damage that Luna received.
She took the brunt for her son.
Tears streaming down her face when she twisted her head and looked Xiao Tianyao right in the eyes. His emotionless eyes made her heart felt more pain as if that was still possible for her to feel more than this pain.
Xiao Mugi cried was deafening as the toddler locked his eyes on Xiao Tianyao and the sword in his hand. He was terrified when he saw his mother not smiling at him and her beautiful face contorted.
These images would engrave in his memory.
”Sist!”
Gong Xu's voice traveled to her ears as she turned her head weakly.
On the doorstep Luna saw the terrified looked on her younger brother, he was shaking violently from the image that was unfolded before his eyes.
The sword was still piercing through Luna's body and when Xiao Tianyao pulled away his sword, the pain increased. Black dots appeared in her vision as her body fell on the floor with Xiao Mugi still in her embraced.
When Xiao Tianyao was about to raise his sword again, Gong Xu snapped himself from his shocked and dashed toward him, drawing his own sword in the process and ward his attack off. He kicked Xiao Tianyao away harshly, he flew a few meters away from them and his body stopped with crashing sound by the cabinet. Gong Xu immediately kneeled down beside his sister.
”No… No… sist, don't leave me alone… I don't have anyone…” He pleaded. Tears streaming down his face like a river. ”No, stay with me…”
