Chapter 1070 “Bai Yan’s Fury (9)”
“Elder Jun.” Liu Qing Yu cries out to her trusted follower as soon as she’s made it to her residence. There’s sweat pouring out of her forehead as she spoke: “Things are not good!”
“Miss, what’s going on?” Getting up from his chair, Elder Jun appears puzzled by the frantic appearance of the lady.
“That man, he intends to attack the human world in person. I can already see the calamity and the destructive image. Go now, go inform the mistress…. She must hide as far away as she can!”
Father’s strength has reached the middle level of the Celestial Rank so no one is his enemy now. If he really is set on a person then there’s no escape. The most urgent task is to let Bai Yan find refuge in the Demon Realm, only there will she have a chance.“I understand then milady, I will make a trip to the human world right away.” Elder Jun didn’t delay and began to walk towards the main exiting passage. However, right as the senior finished opening the door, he was shocked to find two guards already standing outside blocking his path.
“Elder Jun, Miss, we’ve been ordered by the Spirit Lord that none is allowed to go outside. Please return to your residence.”
No one is allowed to go outside?
Getting cold in her tone, Liu Qing Yu lashes out by raising her voice: “Outrageous! I’m sending Elder Jun out to buy me some goods for me, why are you not allowing him to go outside?”
“Miss, this is the Spirit Lord’s order, please forgive us.” Despite the guard taking to the knee when explaining, the tone they gave was neither humble nor respectful.
Now she’s starting to sweat due to the panic she felt. Grinding her teeth in frustration: “I said it already, I’m only sending him out to buy me some goods, he will be back very soon. Now move aside and make way.”
Sadly, the mildly veiled threat in the lady’s voice didn’t make these two guards budge and remained like a mountain. It’s no secret that He Fei Xiang had recently given this lady great commanding power, but the Spirit Lord remains to be the head of this realm. The man’s order comes first before everyone else, including the man’s own children.“Miss!” Seeing how Liu Qing Yu’s about to lose control on the suppressed anger, Elder Jun knew he must intervene. Pulling at her arm, he spoke just loud enough so the two men could hear: “It’s only a small thing, we can buy it later anyways.” That done, he immediately gave a signaling wink indicating they should move out of sight before further discussing the issue.
It’s definitely a smart move by the senior. If they had forced the matter and demanded to leave then it would surely arouse the suspicion of the Spirit Lord. By then, not only would it not help the problem, it would only draw unwanted attention.
“Fine,” huffing a long breath, the lady turns without looking back, “we’re going back inside.”
While the two occupants left of their own volition and didn’t show any indication worthy of suspicion, the two guards still gave a distrustful stare in that direction. Then with a wave, they called for a third person to come over and muttered something secretive into the newcomer’s ear before running off again.
……
Back inside her room again, Liu Qing Yu paces back and forth: “What should we do now Elder Jun? If something happens to the mistress then no one can help us.”
At the beginning she was still unwilling to submit due to her own proud nature, but now, she has long understood the only one that could help in her mission of taking down that man was none other than Bai Yan.
