Chapter 1242 “Father’s Love (6)”

“You… what are you going to do?” Stalked against a wall with her back, Half Qing Sing appeared frantic and afraid at the old goat’s menacing face.

“She uncontracted us already, why did you not run away?” Dragon Flame furrows his brow and asks with a frosty voice after finding the snake still around.

Clattering on the teeth: “Is it too late if I leave now?

The old goat sneered at that: “What do you think?”

The countering question nearly sucked the soul out of the woman’s chest, and because of that reasoning, she couldn’t utter a single word due to the intense fear.

“Do you think you can still escape after all the things you did to me over the years?” A sinister sneer draws itself into the elder’s face as he stared down at the trembling legged woman, “Even if she lets you go, I won’t let you!”

Biting her own lips at the impending future, she musters up the courage to speak: “Then what do you want to do to me?”

“Simple, she may have removed the contract on you, but she’s still alive and was saved. You will renew the bond with her once we meet up again, otherwise I will kill you now and be done with this!” When he finished saying that, a surge of killing intent filled the old goat’s body and turned him into a killing machine.

Wide eyed in surprise, she blubbers out her next words: “You… you mean to have me continue my bond with her? Don’t you want to be free? This is a rare opportunity for us. Besides, don’t you hate her before? Why are you giving up such a good chance?”

The old goat snorted “I’m not regretting that decision, how about that? I will give you your choices: one to be her servant again, the other is I kill you now!”

Shuddering at the notion, Half Qing Sing really struggled with the options because she’s being forced to give up her freedom for a second time.

However….

When confronting with the murderous face of the old goat, the snake lady knew she had no other choice.

Thinking up to here, she huffs a breath of frustration and spoke: “Fine, I will do it then, not like I didn’t serve her before. But I don’t understand, why did she release us in the first place?”

Shooting a look at the snake, Dragon Flame faintly mutters out his inner thoughts that left her frozen: “Perhaps… we misunderstood here before.”

We misunderstood here before?

“That woman is cunning and sly, but she is indeed not one to go back on her words. Also… she did take us out of that place, though she tied us with that contract. However, I believe she only forced that on us in order to secure her own safety.” The old goat then sighed like he’s coming to terms with the facts, “But when the face of danger, she chose to release us in order to not drag us in with her. From that moment I understood, we’ve been misunderstanding her. She is a bright and open person, unlike most of those rotten human’s out there who would turn on us demons at the closest opportune moment. We’re not just s.h.i.+elds and tools to her, we’re real living beings to her.”

Such a person, is worthy of our admiration.

All those positive comments have left Half Qing Sing silent and confused, her eyes muddled with complex emotions.

Truth was it wouldn’t have taken long for the snake to come to the realization of why Bai Yan did all that. But the bias presumption of a human choosing to protect a demon while their own life was in danger still lingered in the lady’s head, that’s not going to change anytime soon….

“Right, where is that little dragoness? I promised Madam Bai Ning that I will take her with me.”

At the beginning the old goat would only address Bai Ning by her name, never did he call her madam. However, that’s going to change since he’s sincerely willing to follow Bai Yan from now on. Giving the woman’s mother the t.i.tle of Madam was adequate and proper, a good sign of loyalty.
