Chapter 1999 Endless Darkness (1)
This is only the interest for now. After not killing Willow in one move, Di Cang didnt idle and swiftly returned to his wifes side. Taking her by his arm, he stares down at the crazy-looking monarch with condescending eyes, And whatever you owe us, I will settle the accounts on another day!
Once this statement came ahead, the Endless Forest gradually disappeared from view, leaving only a shroud of darkness as far as the eye can see. The destructive sequence in this area was nearing completion, leaving only portions of the manor floating atop a black mouth.
Mo Xin Yan happened to be one of the lucky ones after taking refuge atop a crumbling slab of a wall. Shes frightened and mortified, unable to believe the emptiness that now surrounds herself. As for the leftover survivors, they werent faring so well either. Many had urinated their pants, and some were barely clinging to an object with a finger to live. Regardless though, it wont be long until they too perish into the darkness.
Di Cang didnt care about strangers of course. With his wife and son in each hand, the demon king doesnt resist the gravitational force pulling them downwards. Hes powerful, but he had no means to break apart reality to escape either.
Before long, only silence filled the familys ear until the pull disappeared and only weightless remained.
Mother Where is this place? Bai Xiachens childish voice sounded in the darkness.
Bai Yan did not answer for some reason. Its strange, but thats not an issue because the ladys aura remains next to them.
Mother, why arent you talking? Bai Xiachens tone sounded dejected, If we die, or cant go out, what will happen to Ling Yan and Jin Tian whos back home? Also, Sister Dragony only has us as her family, what will she do if we dont show up again? She will definitely be saddened by our departure
At the thought of his two sisters sobbing cry, the steambuns heart would promptly become uncomfortable. Its as if something was rubbing him in the wrong way with no way to stop it. The boy could confront death, but he couldnt confront the fear of making the girls in his family cry.
Oh, right, theres also Auntie Xiao Wan after she lost State Teacher. If she loses all of us too, I cant even begin to imagine how she will live.
At the end, Bai Xiachens voice began to choke due to the strong emotions swelling forward. Out of reflex, he hugged Bai Yans waist for comfort.
Mother I am scared Scared of them crying and never being able to meet us again in the future.
In this place of endless darkness, the boy had no means to see his mothers face or expression right now, only recognizing her presence through the aura.
Father, whats happening with Mother? Why isnt she answering my question? Bai Xiachen tugged at Di Cangs sleeve and asked with a pitiful voice.
Di Cangs hand tightened around his wifes waist as well since hes not getting a good feeling about this either: We should find a way out of here first.
But Bai Xiachen looks downward to where his feet should be. Theres no way for them to climb upwards, nor a way to fall down again. Theyre only floating in this dark s.p.a.ce.
Xiachen, trust me, I will have a way to leave.
