Chapter 621 āLeave (2)ā
āBut Sire, why are you doing this?ā The second elder gnashes his teeth and brought the doubt forward.
āThe world has long prophesized that I must wait for the destined woman to come. They say only she can give me a child, and only she can save Demon Realm from utter destruction! I hold this world in great regard, thatās why sacrificing a mere woman for it is nothing noteworthy of a price.ā The manās voice sounded cruel and ruthless, slicing through the evening wind with every word of his tongue.
Bai Yan on the other hand have already lost her wits after hearing all those heartbreaking things. Closing those pained eyes, the words of her father back on earth once again rang within those earsā¦
āYanāer, forgive father, I have no other choice today. For the family, the price of sacrificing your mother pales in comparison.ā
The Demon Realm is extremely important to me so the sacrifice of a woman is nothingā¦
Those words kept spinning in her mind until a small little claw stretched over to push against her dress, causing that dizziness to come to a bumbling stop.
Then before Little Rice could say a single word, Bai Yan had reached down to cup that mouth, forcing the little feline to stay silent at the eye signal.
āSireā¦ā The second elder sounded shaken as a layer of compassion filled those eyes of his: āThe queen, she is still the mother of the prince, wouldnāt it beā¦.ā
āItās precisely because she is my sonās mother, thatās why Iām giving her a lot of favors. However, if she dares to leave⦠then I will have her never meet my son again in this lifetime!ā A sense of killing intent swiftly blows out of the manās gaze, showing how serious his words were.
The second elder still wasnāt entirely convinced here and was deliberating on whether or not to inform the first elder or state teacher. Unfortunatelyā¦.
āAlsoā¦ā The manās voice once again rang out, āThis matter cannot be known to anyone except you in order to avoid having our conversation leaked to unwanted ears. This includes keeping it a secret from the Demon Council, understand?ā
āYes Sire,ā the second elder nervously complies by bowing his head. The kingās cruelty has long been known throughout the Demon Realm, just that heās always thought the queen would be special.
If he can be this heartless even to the princeās birth mother, what would he do to me if others find out?
After a moment of thought, the elder decides to ask one more thing. Using a meek voice: āSire, I also heard thatā¦. While you were in the mortal world, you were very pampering of the queen to the point where you didnāt force her to come if she didnāt wish it. But now you areā¦.ā
āBecause, I want her to willingly carry out the coronation ceremony of her own accord. Only by doing so will her fate be intertwined with the Demon Realm as a whole. Otherwise, why else would I condone her immoral past?ā
Thereās nothing more the second elder could ask for at this point. Giving a moment of silence to figure out what he must do, the elder complies wholeheartedly: āI understand Sire. Later, I will send someone to follow the queenā¦ā
āYou can retreat now. I still have other matters to tend to,ā the man waves his hand, issuing the dismissal of their meeting.
After the senior left, the man as well disappeared from sight, leaving only the silent air and the bloodish red moon hanging in the night. Well, thatās assuming Bai Yan and Little Rice wasnāt around to hear everything.
Released from that hand and able to get a breath, the baby tiger speaks in a forceful and fearful manner: āMistress, I could never have thought the king would be such a person!ā
Slowly closing her eyes at that, Bai Yan didnāt answer back, only standing there for a good minute in idle deep thought. However, when she did finally open them again, that light in her pupils were sharp and cold.
