Chapter 1229 - Ning Yu’s Death (2)
“Gege.” By then the event had also drawn in Dragony from her nap. Reaching over to stop the boy as well, she wanted to ask what’s going on when he slapped her hand away.
The pain stung of course and the little missy promptly shrunk her hands back, those eyes timid and sad when looking at the little steambun who didn’t give any words of comfort that he normally would.
“What’s wrong Gege? Are you going to find Mother? Can you take me along with you? I can also help protect Mother….”
Dragony’s pathetic voice did make the kid halt for a second, but that’s only for a second before that little body of his disappeared in a gush of wind.
For a while, the little missy actually didn’t know what to do and just dumbly stood there after being dismissed like that.
“Am I too weak?” The missy timidly asks the snake behind herself with pursed lips.
“Oomph!” Coughing to clear the blood from her throat, Half Qing Sing didn’t hold back and smirked a grin to play her nasty side, “Yep, you’re too weak.”
Hands winding into a tight ball, Dragony’s gaze were stern and hard when staring in the direction which the boy ran off to. “I’m going to get stronger, one day I will be very strong!”
Even if I have to pay a huge price, I won’t fail!
Due to her own attention still being preoccupied by the sudden disconnect of the soul binding contract, Half Qing Sing actually didn’t realize the little missy had also left moments later, leaving only this snake demoness in the room by herself grinning like an idiot.
……
Meanwhile back over in the Demon Realm, a certain white tiger and blue dragon were playfully flying through the forested terrain at great speed when the former felt a strange and uncomfortable pang of panic circulating within his heart.
“Tsing Yi, do you feel it?” Little Rice asks with nervous eyes.
The blue dragon stopped at the call, transforming into a beautiful lady the next: “Yes, Mistress…. She cut the connection with us. I can’t feel the contract between us anymore!” After saying that, the dragoness clenched her trembling fists until it was making a crunching sound, that’s how frustrated she was right now. “Do you think something happened to her?”
“It must be, otherwise why else would the contract be terminated between us? Mistress must not want to drag us down with her. We can’t stick around here like this. I’m going to go find her!” Wiping the drop of tear from his feline face, Little Rice mutters, “Mistress, you must wait for me, I will be there right away….”
Unlike the dragoness who only recently returned to Bai Yan’s side, Little Rice was personally raised by the lady since birth so his emotional attachment was much higher than the rest, bordering on the line of a child to a parent. Imagine said parent being in great danger, there’s no way the kid would sit idly by and wait.
After the brief exchange, both demons didn’t hesitate and rushed ahead for the last known direction in which they could tell Bai Yan was in. Though they have no clue where the exact spot was, they are confident in their own abilities to figure that out once they arrive at the Celestial Realm.
