Chapter 1047 "Bai Xiachen's Missing (5)"

“What you’re saying is that one… the one who looks better than a fairy and is sculpted from jade itself, that child?" Based on how how timid her voice has become, it's obvious the earlier arrogance as died out in this lady's att.i.tude. "He… I think he's in the alter room right now."

Only after hearing that did Di Cang retract his oppressive aura, leaving the female to gather a breath. Sadly, his next words that followed threw her into the ice again.

“You bunch watch over her!" He orders the demons from behind, "If my son is missing even a strand of hair then all of you will die! So, you better prey that he is not hurt, or be prepared for the consequences!"

Her fate has been sealed since the moment she made a move against the boy. She's doomed, along with her clan, that's regardless of Bai Xiachen being hurt or not, it doesn't matter at this point.

……

The place of offering and wors.h.i.+p wasn't that far away, merely at the other side of the valley.

Here, in this dimly lit tiny room where the alter stood was Bai Xiachen with his hands tied behind his back, that mouth stuffed and covered by a handkerchief. The boy's been awake and alert for a while now, but he never once tried anything until he's sure the ones in charge of watching him from the outside were gone.

With this perfect opportunity before him, Bai Xiachen didn't need to wait and forced a tug around his arm. With a snap, the rope binding his hands were torn, leaving him free to crawl over to the other boy that's with him. Luckily the latter wasn't bound by anything, only unconscious, making it all the more easier to carry out the following escape plan he's had in mind.

“Wake up, hey wake up…” he gently pushes the kid's body in an attempt to get a reaction. Sadly, his efforts were in vain. Scratching the back of his head over this dilemma: "What to do? He's obviously been drugged by those ladies from earlier. Thankfully I'm immune to every poison out there, otherwise I might be in the same situation when they fed me that thing."

It's then an idea suddenly hit the little steambun when his brain worked up to here. Pulling out all the pill containers in his possession, Bai Xiachen wavered as he stared left and right over what he had. "Hmmm, which of these candy beans can detoxify the sleeping drug? Dammit I should've paid more attention to Mother's lesson when I was studying."

Wrinkling his cute little nose from the self-annoyance, the boy grew furious and decides to pop one out from each container. "Oh who cares, you're also a demon so it doesn't matter if I feed you everything. One of these should remove that drug inside you."

In one sweeping gesture, he directly stuffs the handful of Dan pills into the other child's mouth and allowed it to flow. Thankfully these are all high-quality medicine directly made by Bai Yan herself. As soon as the objects touched saliva, they would melt and become liquid form inside the kid's mouth, making the job of feeding all the more easier.

Gradually opening those eyes, the unconscious boy eventually locks onto the little steambun staring down at himself: "Are you here to save me?"

Raising a bright smile, Bai Xiachen proudly c.o.c.ks his tiny chin upward: “That is of course, otherwise how will those fools catch me?"
