For a while, Bai Ning forgot where she was and kept staring down at the joyous image of the child.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
This girl... Two years old? And call me grandmother?â
So, sheâs Yanâerâs daughter?
âAre you Yanâerâs child?â Calming the ferocious glint in her eye, the womanâs gaze now carried calm like the shining sun when warming the planet.
âGrandmother, my name is Di Ling Yan, itâs Big Brother who named me. Did you know Mother kept talking about you while you werenât around?â The little peachy girlâs voice was very good to the ear, assuring others her beauty would surely rival her own motherâs one day.
Against such a lovely child, thereâs no way Bai Ningâs heart wouldnât be turned.
Oh... Bai Yan should be just as cute and cuddly as this child if she was still a baby. Itâs because of me that she had to suffer so much during those years.... Thank goodness she had a good brother to care for her during that period, otherwise I wonât know what else to do....
âLing Yan is so good.â Descending from the sky after saying that, Bai Ning firmly pulls the child into her arms and gave the baby a big huge hug. Then thatâs when she noticed the blood
dripping down the girlâs hand, âWhatâs this? Who hurt you my dear?â
The anger surging within the womanâs body couldnât be hidden at the sight of blood. Thereâs a thin layer of red oozing out of the ladyâs figure, which only grew in kind once she caught a glimpse of the guilty individuals in the back.
âThese people from the Celestial Palace want to use her blood to heal that Yun Ruo Xi.â Wingerâs tone and attitude was very distant and cold, totally different from the way he spoke about the old witch prior to the big exposure.
âCelestial Palace, itâs the Celestial Palace again!â Bai Ning grinds her teeth when speaking: âYou people have done nothing but evil. Sooner or later, the world will not tolerate your crimes!â
Keeper Ling also flew into a rage at the accusatory looks: âBai Ning, I was just looking for you, to think you would come show yourself of your own accord. You are right on one thing though in what you said: the heavens will one day judge the demons because this world doesnât have a place for such vile creatures! Theyâve done nothing but evil!â
âAs if you got the right to speak ill of others!â Bai Ning doesnât back down and fights back with her own sharp words, âYou think the amount of people the Celestial Palace have hurt is little? There are hordes of innocent individuals out there who would love to see your head roll. Today, I, Bai Ning, will get justice for those poor helpless individuals who couldnât save themselves from your evil hands!â
âHahaha!â Unfazed over the threat, the old elder only found the idea hilarious: âBai Ning, you seem to forget something: who is the one that hid themselves from us for all these years, and who is the one that attacked the Celestial Palace while us Keepers were not present? So, explain to me, what can you do now that Iâm here?â
Bai Ning grinned: âThen you seem to forget something as well, thereâs an old saying of things are not what it used to be!â
Itâs been so many years already, sheâs no longer the same Bai Ning who kept living in hiding like in the past. For the sake of her own daughter, for the sake of her own grandchildren.... She even kept herself from returning to her own husband, itâs all for the sake of making more breakthroughs in order to challenge the order of this world...
What she didnât expect though was how quickly these bastards took aim at her family. A two-year-old, they wouldnât even let a baby go!
