Chapter 1319 “Demi Divine Pill (4)”
Looking all pitiful like an injured child, the old coot tears up: “Hurt, hurt….”
“You wait here,” placing the old grandpa down to one side, Bai Yan shoots a magma level glare over to that Keeper Red.
“Girl, so you are that demon queen? I have to say, you do have a lot of courage to come cause trouble here in the Celestial Palace!” Snarling with disdain, the old woman didn’t mind the look and even found it amusing.
“I’m not here to make trouble, I’m… here to kill you!” Bai Yan’s voice was full of arrogance and condescending att.i.tude towards everything around herself, which promptly earned a laughing fit from the other side.
“Hahahaha! Little girl, a thousand years ago you were not an opponent for us, what makes you think it will change this time around? Without Demon King Di Cang’s protection, you aren’t even worthy of coming into my eye! But don’t worry, I’ll give you an opportunity to live if you follow through with the proposal I have!”
Unmoved and rather annoyed by the constant rattle coming out of the old lady’s mouth, Bai Yan moves to take the s.h.i.+ning pill from her storage bag. This was the Dan pill she created back in the Sky Mountain, a forbidden product that a user could take only once in their lifetime less they suffer immense consequences for repeated use.
“And what opportunity would that be?” She asks with indifference after swallowing her secret weapon.
Not missing what Bai Yan did there of course, Keeper Red didn’t care and frankly answered. In the granny’s view, the other side couldn’t possibly contend with her own powers regardless of whatever means she resorted to, whether it be a weapon or drug.
“Ruo Xi was harmed by you back then, which led to her long years of stagnant growth. If we want her to recover then we are going to need the blood of a female fox of the highest degree, and it must be a youngling as well.” Pausing to smirk over her next words, “If you are willing to give birth to a daughter with the demon king and then give the young baby to us, then I can speak for the Celestial Palace to forgive you for your sins.”
Bai Yan’s heart instantly tightened up over what she’s heard. They want to go after my daughter Ling Yan? No! I can’t let this continue on! I need to hurry and finish up here and return to the city!
In light of her swirling emotions of urgency and panic, she didn’t let it show on the surface and kept it hidden.
“Based on what?”
That’s right, based on what could these sc.u.mbags from the Celestial Palace demand the sacrifice of a newborn’s life? In no part of a reasonable or sane mind could one make such a demand, let alone demand that of an enemy! That’s what you call a brazen narcissistic mindset!
“Like I said, we need to help Ruo Xi recover her health in order to avoid the incoming calamity!” Now growing impatient in the face, Keeper Red grew more forceful in her voice, “Moreover, what does it matter? It’s going to be a newborn fox anyways. I doubt you are going to have any attachment to such a small spec of life. Compared to the life of this world, what does a single fox matter?!”
Bluntly speaking, all this old hag meant was that your daughter’s insignificant and their own lives are what matters so hurry and pony up the baby fox.
Growing cold in her tone as well now, Bai Yan smirks dangerously at the shameless b.i.t.c.h: “And what does it matter to me if this world lives or die? I, Bai Yan, will never sacrifice my own daughter, that’s something you can forget about me doing!”
“How can you be so thick headedly stubborn like back then?!” Snapping out in frustration, Keeper Red was clearly getting impatient: “No matter, it’s not like the decision is only up to you, it’s your husband the demon king who has the final say doesn’t he? I’m sure he will gladly offer up the newborn fox if it means saving his own hide and the Demon Realm. But don’t worry, once we get what we want then the grudge between both the Demon Realm and Celestial Realm can be considered squared, that I can promise you!”
That obvious fake promise only few a mocking and contemptable chuckle from Bai Yan.
