BXBX NOVEL Chapter 621 - Leave (2)
“The world has long prophesized that I must wait for the destined woman to come. They say only she can give me a child, and only she can save Demon Realm from utter destruction! I hold this world in great regard, that’s why sacrificing a mere woman for it is nothing noteworthy of a price.” The man’s voice sounded cruel and ruthless, slicing through the evening wind with every word of his tongue.
Bai Yan on the other hand have already lost her wits after hearing all those heartbreaking things. Closing those pained eyes, the words of her father back on earth once again rang within those ears…
“Yan’er, forgive father, I have no other choice today. For the family, the price of sacrificing your mother pales in comparison.”
The Demon Realm is extremely important to me so the sacrifice of a woman is nothing…
Those words kept spinning in her mind until a small little claw stretched over to push against her dress, causing that dizziness to come to a bumbling stop.
Then before Little Rice could say a single word, Bai Yan had reached down to cup that mouth, forcing the little feline to stay silent at the eye signal.
“Sire…” The second elder sounded shaken as a layer of compassion filled those eyes of his: “The queen, she is still the mother of the prince, wouldn’t it be….”
“It’s precisely because she is my son’s mother, that’s why I’m giving her a lot of favors. However, if she dares to leave… then I will have her never meet my son again in this lifetime!” A sense of killing intent swiftly blows out of the man’s gaze, showing how serious his words were.
The second elder still wasn’t entirely convinced here and was deliberating on whether or not to inform the first elder or state teacher. Unfortunately….
“Also…” The man’s voice once again rang out, “This matter cannot be known to anyone except you in order to avoid having our conversation leaked to unwanted ears. This includes keeping it a secret from the Demon Council, understand?”
“Yes Sire,” the second elder nervously complies by bowing his head. The king’s cruelty has long been known throughout the Demon Realm, just that he’s always thought the queen would be special.
If he can be this heartless even to the prince’s birth mother, what would he do to me if others find out?
After a moment of thought, the elder decides to ask one more thing. Using a meek voice: “Sire, I also heard that…. While you were in the mortal world, you were very pampering of the queen to the point where you didn’t force her to come if she didn’t wish it. But now you are….”
“Because, I want her to willingly carry out the coronation ceremony of her own accord. Only by doing so will her fate be intertwined with the Demon Realm as a whole. Otherwise, why else would I condone her immoral past?”
There’s nothing more the second elder could ask for at this point. Giving a moment of silence to figure out what he must do, the elder complies wholeheartedly: “I understand Sire. Later, I will send someone to follow the queen…”
“You can retreat now. I still have other matters to tend to,” the man waves his hand, issuing the dismissal of their meeting.
After the senior left, the man as well disappeared from sight, leaving only the silent air and the bloodish red moon hanging in the night. Well, that’s assuming Bai Yan and Little Rice wasn’t around to hear everything.
Released from that hand and able to get a breath, the baby tiger speaks in a forceful and fearful manner: “Mistress, I could never have thought the king would be such a person!”
Slowly closing her eyes at that, Bai Yan didn’t answer back, only standing there for a good minute in idle deep thought. However, when she did finally open them again, that light in her pupils were sharp and cold.
