Chapter 865 - Opening of the Domain, Bristleback Dragon (3)
Chapter 865 “Opening of the Domain, Bristleback Dragon (3)”
Chu Yi Yi nods in good behavior: “Then I’ll go find Xiachen instead. I need to take care of him while Bai Yan is gone during this period.”
Zheng Qi nearly turned green upon hearing what this troublemaker intends to do. Hurrying to grab onto that shoulder before she runs off: “This… you don’t need to worry about, Qiu Shu Rong (third) and Ren Yi (second) will take care of him.”
Giving the boy to this one who torched the treasury vault? If they did that then the entire Holy Land would be destroyed in no time!
Thankfully this princess didn’t have much of a brain when it comes to these matters. After getting pulled by the pushy senior a few times, she ended up going with him anyways.
……
Over in the peach blossom forest, Lord Chu Ran and the other elders were busy discussing something when they saw the reddishly fine figure walking over to their spot.
“You here Bai Yan!”
Stopping before this middle-aged man who nearly became her father-in-law: “Yes Lord, I came after getting the message from my shifu. You say the portal to the Holy Domain is open?”
“You’ve heard right,” Chu Ran answers right away despite the tight furrowing forehead he showed at what’s further ahead. “This is my last reminder to you Bai Yan. Unlike the mini domain where one can be transferred back after they die in there, this one won’t give you a second chance. Are you certain you want to go inside…?”
“Riches comes with danger, I am never one to cower before the risk.” She stays firm in her decision.
So what if it’s dangerous? I have never been one to back down when the challenge comes knocking.
“Haha!” Lord Chu Ran laughs wildly. Patting the girl’s shoulder, his face shows a strong level of admiration: “As expected of the one whom I believed in all those years ago. You will be the one to come out of there, I believe you will!”
Bai Yan also smiled at this trust: “Lord, I want to ask you a favor before I head inside. During this time while I’m not around, please look after my son. I don’t-”
Cutting her before she could finish: “Don’t worry! I’ve always regarded Xiachen as my grandson so no one will make trouble for him here in the Holy Land.” Patting his chest in reassurance, he made promises without a second thought to the idea.
In light of the agreement, Bai Yan only showed a perplexed face. What she really meant was to keep her son out of trouble and not to let him start a fire again, not to be protected…. Besides, she would be happy if he could not go provoking others while she’s not looking, that’s all she wants.
“Another note, you must not let Yi Yi look after Xiachen. This is very important!”
This was an act of insurance. If those two get together then the Holy Land would become a pile of rubbles by the time she comes out.
“I understand.” Chu Ran makes an understanding nod.
He’s the troublesome girl’s father, how could he not know the sort of character the lass has? Not much ability in anything else, only super capable when it comes to making disasters happen.
“Then I’ll go now.” Leaving only that behind, Bai Yan then walked towards a shining mirror that’s up ahead in measured strides. She didn’t fear this portal, only a strong level of anticipation for what awaits.
“Lord, this… is this really a good idea? What if something goes wrong?” One of the lower ranked elders present turns to ask with unease in the voice, “If anything happens to the lady then Zheng QI and his brothers will go crazy.”
Chu Ran arches his brow: “Did you all forget her performance back then in the mini domain already? That result is unlike anything I have ever seen….”
But it’s late to do anything at this point anyways. Bai Yan had already stepped through the mirror and the shimmering white light has died down, signaling the closer of the portal.
