Chapter 2007: Heartache (1)
Suzaku had great difficulty in keeping the stone from dropping out of her hand. Its not that the things heavy, but what it implied for taking it. A gift from an enemy, a traitor, thats what makes it so heavy.
"Mo Li Shang, since you are done with your task, you can scram now. When Mistress returns, I will let her know what youve done and settle the account with you!
Today's Demon Realm could hardly be called peaceful. If the four of them must engage in a battle with this man, its unlikely they could come out on top. Whats more, the most important thing wasnt revenge, but the protection of the remaining royal family members. That meant Jin Tian and Ling Yan who had no ability of their own.
Mo Li Shang didnt utter a single word of defense for himself from beginning to end, but the way he spoke and the way he moved said theres another side to the story.
"Okay, that said, he didnt look back and begun floating towards the blood-colored sky.
"Wait." Suddenly, a crisp bell-like chime came from the rear, making the guy stop midflight.
Di Ling Yan had walked over after hearing their conversation.
"Princess!" Suzaku and the others were terrified at this and reached out, wanting to pull the girl back to their side. However, the pure and untainted eyes from the princess stopped them. Its too innocent and without darkness that the four didnt know how to react.
"Are you really not going to hurt Mother?" Di Ling Yans smile was hopeful and without doubt when asking.
Floating there for a good moment before he spoke, the guys voice was equally as pure and kind: I will never hurt her.
"Then have you seen my father and mother? The smile gradually disappears from the princess as her face grew frustrated, I miss them so much. When will they come back?
Mo Li Shangs heart instantly ached with pain after hearing the saddening plea. Slowly closing his eyes, he recalls back to the moment where he saw that family being devoured by the darkness in the h.e.l.l Domain.
"They'll be back soon." After half a ring, he leans down and pats the childs head in a rea.s.suring manner.
Of course, this was done under the wary gaze of the four sacred beasts. If he had so much given a flicker of intent to hurt the princess then they wouldve attacked and separated the two in an instant.
Pouting in her little face, the pipsqueak didnt buy it, "Uncle, you are deceiving Ling Yan. I am not stupid. I can sense Mother and Father is at a very distant place. I am scared they will not be able to come back for a long time.
Mo Li Shang didnt know what he could say in this situation. The girl hit the bullseye with that guess.
"Uncle, can you tell me where Mother went? Suzaku and the others wont let me go find them.
Mo Li Shang smiled slightly, "They went to a place called the h.e.l.l Domain.
"Mo Li Shang!" Suzaku's face changed.
I shouldn't have let the princess touch this b.a.s.t.a.r.d, and this b.a.s.t.a.r.d actually revealed where Bai Yan went?
What if the princess she.
Thinking of this, Suzaku felt fl.u.s.tered and wanted to stop the guy, but what Mo Li Shang said next stunned everyone in their tracksw.
"Unfortunately, the h.e.l.l Domain is gone now and your father and mother has gone to a whole new place that even I dont know of. But dont worry, Im sure they will return very soon.
