Chapter 2000 - Endless Darkness (2)

Chapter 2000 “Endless Darkness (2)”

Bai Yan did not know how long she had been floating In the darkness. The only thing this demon queen wanted to do was open her eyes in desperation. Sadly, she couldn’t. In fact, the lady couldn’t even open her mouth to make a squeak.
No!
I must not give up! I can’t let Di Cang and Xiachen worry about me like this!
Thinking of this, Bai Yan clenched her hands into a ball until the pain gradually cleared her muddled state. She still couldn’t speak or see, but having a clearer mind was better than nothing.
“Yan’er, can you hear us?” A man’s muffled voice drifts over.
Yes!
I can hear you clearly!
Bai Yan tried to shout out several times, but the voice only resonated in her heart and not outward.
“Yan’er, whether you can hear us or not, me and Xiachen will be by your side so don’t worry. I will find a way to leave this darkness. No one can trap us.” Di Cang hugged her again, embracing that body so the woman wouldn’t have the faintest chance of slipping away into the darkness.
With a flutter of her eyelashes due to the physical contact, Bai Yan stopped struggling to open her eyes there. She may not be able to see him, but the intimacy was all the warmth she needed.
……
Somewhere off in the bushes, Willow was covered in blood as she leaned against a tree trunk she found after her self-destructive act.
In the end, I brought the destruction of the Hell Domain with my own hands…. I let my anger swallow me. But it’s okay… even if I don’t control a domain anymore and suffer for it, I can still rebuild. There’s the Demon Realm. One day, I will make all of demonkind submit to me!
“Shi… Shifu…” Mo Xin Yan was shivering in a corner right now.
Though afraid, the girl understood the only reason she’s alive was that the monarch spared herself; otherwise, she would never have escaped the fate that had befallen everyone else.
Willow slowly opened her eyes at that voice, the gaze indifferent and cold while watching Mo Xin Yan and Heart whom she spared.
Compared with Mo Xin Yan’s trembling appearance, Heart’s was relatively calm for the situation. In fact, the old ignorant and innocent appearance was long gone, replaced by a squirming child that buried her head against the knee like she’s locked herself off from the rest of the world.
“Mo Xin Yan, do you know your wrong?” Willow asked indifferently.
Plop!
Mo Xin Yan was so frightened that she immediately kneeled before the monarch, her face pale and panicking.
“Shifu, I know my fault. Please forgive me for being ignorant and stupid.”
Slowly getting up with that condescending gaze, Willow sneered a smirk at the girl’s cowardice: “I said it before that you are not allowed to have ideas about him. To think you not only went after him, you also betrayed me for him?”
