Chapter 1314 “Good Granddaughter, You’ve Returned (2)”
After issuing everything out, Dragon Flame wasted no time to move onto the next step of destroying this place. In one full breath, he ignites the entire mountain in a thick layer of flame using his own fire.
“Little Master, the people of the Celestial Palace are all evil, there’s no reason to grieve for them. They’ve all stained their hands with the blood of us demons so it’s best to kill them here before they turn around and bite us in the back!” The old goat says after noticing the saddened expression along the boy’s face.
Furthermore, it’s a good way to delay more time by killing these defenders.
Pinching his lips into a thin line of unhappiness: “I understand your approach, but… this is a whole mountain’s worth of herbs here, those plants are all innocent. Now they’re all wasted because its burned. Imagine giving it all to Mother, how great would that be…..”
Looking at the boy’s regretful expression, Dragon Flame just couldn’t stop twitching in the corner of his mouth.
Originally the old goat believed the kid’s saddened over the loss of life, yet it turns out it’s the polar opposite! Clearly he’s overthinking things and worrying for nothing.
“Oomph,” making a dry cough, he pulls out a storage bag and hands it over, “although I’m not a alchemist like your mother, but I can still distinguish between the herbs giving off a strong spiritual presence. I picked the couple I deemed valuable in there so you can give her these.”
That great news instantly turned that frowning little face into a happy one. “Then we should hurry, I don’t want Mother to wait long. Remember, from now on everything you do must be in the best interest of Mother.”
In the eyes of this son, Bai Yan was his most important person so whether it be materials or man power, he would always want to offer only the best. Just like that, the group left as fast as they came, leaving no traces of their presence once gone.
……
At the same time as well, all was quiet after most of the Keepers has left the Celestial Palace. Most didn’t know why they had left in such a rush, but they didn’t need to because a loud smacking bang quickly occupied their minds after the front gate was blown apart.
Running outside, they were all met with a beautiful woman floating there in the air. She wore a blood red dress, expressionless and cold in the face, and her features were oppressive and dangerous to the eye.
“Who dares to come make trouble at the Celestial Palace!” An enraged voice booms out from within, followed by a group of heavily armed guards brandis.h.i.+ng some very s.h.i.+ny weapons in their arms.
Unexpectedly though, instead of attacking right away like they should, these men only showed shock along their faces once they got a better look at the a.s.sailant.
Why… why does this twenty something year old looking woman look so much like that Bai Ning?!
“You… Who are you?!”
It’s understandable for these men to react this certain way. Several years back, Bai Ning had personally attacked the Celestial Palace while the Keepers were in closed door training and wreaked havoc to the defenders. The bunch here was among the survivors so the experience was still considered a nightmarish taboo for them.
“Who am I?” Smirking with contempt in her smile, Bai Yan’s eyes grew frosty, “Of course someone who is here to kill you!”
Of course someone who is here to kill you!
