Chapter 619 “Beating Qing Xue (6)”
That night.
Bai Yan was in the middle of meditating inside her room when she suddenly opened her eyes upon hearing the small footsteps of indecision outside: “Xiao Wan, come in if you want, don’t just stand there.”
The girl outside the door was rather startled by the voice, nevertheless, she eventually makes up her mind and walks in with a push.
“Sister-in-law, I have something to tell you.” Di Xiao Wan rubs her hand with unease as she gazed over to the woman lying on the bed.
Against that form, Bai Yan just couldn’t resist a laugh: “If you have anything to say then say it, don’t worry.”
“Umm, today when me and Xiachen met those puppets…” A pang of worry grips the princess’s heart after remembering that scene, “There should’ve been no problem considering my strength, but one of them broke the present we picked for you…”
Upon noticing the wrinkle in the woman’s forehead, Di Xiao Wan’s demeanor grew even more squeamish: “How should I explain it. When Xiachen saw that, he changed completely. It was very scary, like he went into a frenzied state.”
Now Bai Yan was openly frowning: “So you are saying that pile of thugs wasn’t done in by you?”
Going white at that accusation, the girl promptly objects to the notion: “How can you say that about me Sister-in-law, am I that kind of person?”
Not buying that one bit, Bai Yan gives her friend there an accusing look: “What do you think?”
As much as the princess wanted to continue to protest in her own defense, Di Xiao Wan knew she’s been caught. The miserable image of the former dragon chief still lingers in her mind, which was solely caused by the orders she gave to the palace guards.
Now that I look back at it…. Alright, I am that kind of person.
“But Sister-in-law! This is not the time to be talking about me, we’re talking about Xiachen. I only have one nephew, I don’t want him to be in any danger….”
Bai Yan didn’t answer and stayed quite for a while: “Where is your brother now?”
“Him?” Pursing her lips in discontent, Di Xiao Wan gives a snort at the mention: “I reckon he’s shutting himself away again to deal with the state’s affair. It’s common for him to stay missing for days or even weeks on end without anyone seeing him.”
In particular, Brother wants to attack the Celestial Realm recently so he must be busy thinking up of ways to attack those pretentious celestials.
But just when Di Xiao Wan wanted to explain the story of how her brother intends to attack a whole world for the sake of a simple careless remark by Bai Yan, the princess abruptly stopped due to the key note Di Cang left behind from way back.
It’s supposed to be a surprise so she’s not in the position to reveal this secret. A gift should come from the one that’s prepared it, the girl knows at least that much.
“What about State Teacher then?” Tightening her brow even further, Bai Yan continues to ask.
“I haven’t seen State Teacher for a long time as well, maybe he’s in closed-door training.” Puckering her lips to the side, the girl answers with a grunt.
“Tell me where or how to find Di Cang then. Maybe he would know how to handle Xiachen’s case.” Slowly rising from the bed, Bai Yan’s appearance clearly shows she’s ready to go.
“Sister-in-law, do you need me to accompany you to those places?” Without delay, the princess lists the usual locations her brother would be during times like these.
“No need.” Shaking her head, Bai Yan shoots the idea down and walked out the door on her own.
Now things are starting to make sense on why no one would know about Di Cang’s departure. The man has had a bad habit of disappearing for long periods of time without so much as a word, making this all the more normal.
