Chapter 1928 “h.e.l.l Domain (2)”
Tsing Yi’s heart shook as her fist tightened into a ball. Inhaling deeply, the dragon lady had to take a moment to calm herself. “So you knew where the king went?”
“The place where the king went… It is a domain, but not the kind you are used to. There are no countless strong beings in there so there’s no danger involved in that aspect. However, the pa.s.sage through it is extremely harsh….” Suzaku looks up to meet her companion’s gaze, those eyes showing a unmistakable fear.
This was the first time Tsing Yi ever seen the phoenix make such an expression. Suzaku had always been calm and charming with the occasional domineering att.i.tude similar to their mistress, but never was there fear.
“So what your view Suzaku? Will the king be able to make it through the pa.s.sage and find what he needs?”
“I don’t know…” she shakes her head, “I just know that those who walk that path will definitely see the most horrid of nightmares inside their heart. Not only that, the effects of that pa.s.sage will magnify this terror to the limit. If they don’t overcome this, the person can never make it out and die in there.”
Suzaku’s face had gotten a little pale due to the mere thought of Bai Yan possibly going through such a trial.
“More importantly, the person who created this domain is the ancestor of our Demon Realm. That demon held a deep hatred for humankind because a human woman stole her beloved man. If one of our kin goes through then it’s still bearable on our physical body, but if Mistress attempts the feat, the strain is unimaginable…. That’s why the king threatened me before he left, His Majesty doesn’t want Mistress chasing after him.”
Now Tsing Yi finally understood why her friend would be so scared of that place.
If the likes of themselves still had the chance of peris.h.i.+ng merely by entering the pa.s.sage, what are the odds of Bai Yan ever making it through? Obviously slim to none!
“What are we going to do?” Tsing Yi’s expression sank, “If the queen finds out about it, she would definitely…”
Suddenly, the dragon lady’s voice stopped as she jolted around to stare at the oncoming figure from below the peak.
Suzaku came back to her senses first and quickly got up from the rock she was lying on.
When did the queen appear? Why didn’t I sense anything?
“Say, Suzaku, Tsing Yi, what are you hiding from me?” Bai Yan’s lips curved upwards into a smirk, but that smile only made the two in question pour out a layer of cold sweat.
How much did Mistress hear?
“Suzaku,” Bai Yan narrowed her eyes in at the source and got a s.h.i.+ver as response, “I’ll give you another chance to confess, where did Di Cang go?”
Suzaku’s face turned deathly pale as cold sweat flowed down the corner of her forehead, “Mistress, I can’t say….”
If she had said it, her mistress would have desperately chased after her husband. By then, she might never return.
“Won’t say?” A cold glint appeared in Bai Yan’s eyes, “Suzaku, although I haven’t remembered everything yet in the past life, but I do know you’ve been following me since you were born. So, what am I to you? Are you going to not listen to even my words?”
Suzaku stumbled backwards, her teeth clattering due to the nervous wreck that was her heart.
