Chapter 1027 One Pill One Celestial 1 ” (2/2)
“Grandfather.” Delighted as well over the familiar sight, Bai Yan hurries forward in order to meet the senior halfway, “You still haven’t left the Holy Land?”
Giving a long sigh: “After you went into the miracle, I and that Wu Wei did leave for our respective home, but…. something happened in these lands while you were away.”
Seeing the expression there, Bai Yan’s voice turned solemn: “What happened?”
Bitterly smiling, the grandpa went ahead to explain the whole story, “Not long ago, that slave you sent back to the Spirit Realm came to us with news, she said their forces are invading and intends to slaughter everyone on this piece of land.”
Narrowing her eyes in over that bit, a frosty coldness flickered within Bai Yan’s face. This Spirit Realm…. they are indeed making a move!
“And then?” she asks again with a dangerous glow.
“Then, Chu Ran had everyone come to the Holy Island, including the Lan family. We used the barrier around this place to protect everyone from those Celestial Rank cultivators, just that….. Chu Ran is simply unreliable. The barrier around the island couldn’t completely fend off the attacks and nearly collapsed. Thankfully Di Xiao Wan brought over a horde of demons with her in the nick of time. We were saved thanks to the help.”
Di Xiao Wan?
Blinking her eyes in startlement, “But then where’s Di Cang?”
“She said her brother is currently inside the secret domain looking for Xiachen and is not in the Demon Realm. Because of that, he didn’t get the news of the invasion.”
A long silence hung over the mother’s heart upon hearing her son’s name.
Di Cang went looking for Xiachen? It can’t be…. something happened to my boy?
While her heart trembled and those hands clenched with unease, a promise suddenly surfaced in her mind. It’s the promise she shared with her husband, and that was trust. If Di Cang said their son would be find then it’s a wife’s duty to trust her husband. At the very least, until he proves otherwise. So, Bai Yan won’t rush off in search of her son like she would in the past.
Getting a little better in her complexion over the trust she held for the two males in her life, Bai Yan controls her mood so it doesn’t affect those here. “Then where is Di Xiao Wan and the others? How come I don’t see them here?”
