Chapter 1480 “Bai Yan’s Return (4)”

“I’m sorry Jin Tian, grandma here is not free to go with you. I will have First Elder take you though. Once you’re over there, you must take care of your sister, okay?”

“Okay!” The little glutton desperately nodded without suspecting a thing: “I will take good care of my sister. I will give her the delicious things first so hurry Grandma, tell First Elder to take us now. I want to eat the delicious fruits.”

I wonder if the fruit there is as good as the Sky Mountain’s.... I miss those fruits. The ones here aren’t good at all, not sweet and all icky!

Thinking up to here, Di Jin Tian’s lip immediately found his face forming into a pouting expression. He misses his old home where no one would hurt him nor try to steal his food away.

“Jin Tian, go find your Sister Mu Ying and have her go with you as well. I have something I need to say to First Elder.” She says after noticing the arrival of the old elder.

Some things mustn’t be said in front of the boy, regardless of how gullible he was at heart.

A while later after the child was gone, the first to break the ice was the woman herself: “First Elder, I need to ask you a favor: please take the kids to a certain place to dodge the upcoming battle. Return if the fighting is done, but if I... if I fall in battle then don’t bring them back.” She may be showing a sad smile like someone facing death, but her eyes are strong and unyielding.

“Madam Bai Ning, you should take them instead, I will stay behind to defend the city. This crisis is ours to bear. Furthermore, you are the queen’s mother, you shouldn’t be staying to face such danger.” The elder replies with a bittersweet smile of his own, knowing full what it means to stay behind.

Shaking her head and causes the old senior to stare upwards in shock by what she says: “Yan Yan cares a lot about the Demon Realm. Whatever my daughter cares about is what I care about. I will guard this place while she is gone. If the city lives then I live, if the city falls then I will fall with it.”

The elder’s heart shook as he got quiet. He could argue with that determination.

“Here, take this map, the route I’ve marked will likely be the safest. Also....” She suddenly stopped as if she’s thought of something bad, “If I am unfortunate enough to face my end during the upcoming battle, then help me go back to the human world. Tell my... tell my husband its my blessing to have met him in this life. I hope he can forgive me in not being able to return to him. And... I still have a brother and father over there, please help take care of them.”

At this moment, Bai Ning suddenly found that her life has too many things to worry and care about, but she... she really didn’t have a choice in this matter. True, the woman did consider the idea of retreating from this city with all its residences, but what then afterwards? Go back to the main territory of the Demon Realm? It won’t stop the forces of the Celestial Realm from invading, and what then? It would only create a bigger war and bigger casualty in doing so. What’s more, Bai Yan hasn’t returned yet... As her mother, Bai Ning doesn’t want to leave without making sure her daughter was safe.

First Elder had nothing more to say at this point. He knows persuasion was out of the question, and if he did make the lady leave then who’s going to defend the city? Himself? He would of course, but the strength he held wouldn’t be able to make a difference....

“Madam Bai Ning... I will remember your requests, and I will also protect the princess and prince with my life, that I promise.” Closing his eyes like he’s grown older, First Elder had to take a big breather before opening them again. However, his gaze was solid and firm, a sign he’s going to see through to his vow at the cost of his own life.
