Feng re-read the letter once again, confirming the situation. Finally, he let out a deep breath. “they are in Rene. The kids are in Rene.” He hugged Wren tightly.His pounding heart finally slowed. All these twenty days he had ben unable to sleep, unable to even operate thinking without their missing kids. It was torture. he had never experienced feeling this way again.The feeling he had been repressing all came out.Letting out a silent sob, he buried his face in his mate’s chest.“ohh, darling. Why are you crying..”“I was so sacred…” Feng sniffled. “I have never felt this way before. Its.. it’s not a good feeling at all.”“shh everything is over now. Bai and wen are safe.. they are in good hands. So let’s calm down a bit.” Wren gently cupped hie face and kissed him.Feng shook his head, sobbing even louder. “he cried. Mumu said he cried. He has never cried in his life before… I…. I feel like I did something wrong. Did we constrict him too much Wren. I feel like we were in the way
Days passed, Bai and Wen stayed with the Atul clan spending their days leisurely. But it was not fun and games. The Atul family had five elders amongst them.The five elders who looked like twenty or some young men always found time to spend with Bai and Wen.They spend hours telling Galant stories about his so-called grandfather.That was exactly what was happening right now as well.Bai slowly dozed off listening to the boring tales of war and battle. His dazed eyes started to dull out and the old elder sitting in front of him looked like a blurred-out painting.A soft pinch awakened him immediately.Besides him, Wen Ro sat there innocently pinching his arm.Bai glared at him.“don’t sleep. It’s disrespectful,”Bai rolled his eyes. “I’m tired.” he whispered under his breath.The old elder who was talking suddenly paused. “Am I boring you, young master. Sorry it’s my fault. I have been asleep for so long so I tend to rail off my stories. I.. I just want you to think positively of you
Xu da Ping and Mu Zheng started to prepare for their journey. They wrote to feng and even got permission to take the kids on this trip to their surprise feng was more than happy to allow it.Wen Ro who was done packing his stuff glanced at Bai who was sitting still. “are you done packing? Do you need help?”“no…” he dejectedly glanced at his hands.“Why are you still upset? I thought you would be happy to see your grandfather now….” Wen hopped up on the bed beside him. “ but I didn’t like the way you tricked uncle xu though. They both are very sweet. You were super worried about yourself,”Bai glanced at him with a frown. initially, when he was caught by uncle Mu he was planning on using his acting and trick them into taking him to his grandpa but all plans changed when was scolded. he was genuinely upset. After reading his mum’s heartbroken letter he was even more heartfelt. All the thoughts about his initial trickery were gone.He was genuinely down for the days he spent here in atu
"NO!!!" Mu Zheng stabbed the icy wall to his dismay his dagger broke into shards just like a piece of ice would.Through the foggy layer, he anxiously glanced as the white-haired man move closer."don't you dare touch them!!! Xu!! Oh my god…." He started to bang the ice with his fists. The pricky edge tore through his skin leaving behind bloody lesions.He did not bother though he continued banging in hopes that the wall of ice would melt.The white-haired man glanced at him through the glass with his head tilted."hey, you fucker! Don't do anything to them. You want money. I have money I can give you whatever you want just… just don't hurt them.. please.. I beg of you… please…." He leaned his head on the icy layer. "Please… don't.. don't do anything to them."Though all the shouting and screaming Bai Wren woke up. he dazedly glanced at the white-haired man standing over him. There was a white film-like spiritual layer around that man, making him look ethereal. He looked like an angel
On the ship, Mu Zheng struggled to get out of the ice that had frozen the lower half of his body. His heart was anxious. That man jumped right after the kids were off. He also feared that Bai Wren might not be aware of how to use the safety net. It was shaped like a ball initially but infused with a bit of spiritual energy it will spread like a huge net and safely capture them even if they were falling from a great height.“shit…” he grumbled trying to free his hand/“Mumu don’t move. Wait a bit.” Xu Da Ping gestured for him to stop struggling. “don’t break your hand. I’m almost free,” he whispered.Soon his hands were seen poking out. There was a small red flaming dagger in hand. Slowly, he cut the ice, and he jumped down. Hurriedly, he ran to his mate and freed him as well.“Hurry we have to get to them before that man does anything!” Mu Zheng grabbed his hand.They both jumped off with the safety net in hand.From this height, they were only able to spot the tree figures like a sma
Bai stood there frozen. He still could not believe that his grandfather did all this. He hesitantly walked into the blood-stained corridor of the house. There was nothing inside except the stench of blood. No corpses, no clothes… nothing.It was similar to a house that had been hurriedly emptied.“maybe they all left…. Maybe it’s not human blood. Who knows this town might have gotten some type of plague. I heard that humans abandon towns for that reason,” he said, trying to think logically.Mu Zheng sighed. He gently patted his shoulders. “We have to go back home Bai…”“Why?! We have yet to meet him! why must we go back? He didn’t do this. I’m sure of it! He would not!” he shook his head completely in disbelief.He knew that his grandfather had a bone to pick with this minister involved in the death of his grandma, but his intuition told him he would not be cruel enough to kill off an entire town. That was too brutal. It did not sound like his grandfather.“Bai be good. We have to go
The four of them settled down in the outskirts of the town with a simple tent. On the outside it looked like a small survival tent but on the inside, it was very luxurious and had two rooms with a full-size bed.Mu Zheng first settled down the kids. Bai Wren was more than willing to bury himself in the bed sheets while Wen Ro hugged him tightly. They both seemed to be in a low mood.Mu Zheng did not know how to comfort them. He gently covered them with a fluffy blanket and walked out.The rain was pouring down, making a loud pitter patter sound when it hit the outer leather layer of the tent. It was loud, but very calming.Mu Zheng sat down next to his mate on the bed. “why did you make us stay? It’s better to leave.”“you know why I did it right?”“I know. How could I not know? the heavenly emperor was right behind us following us like a lost puppy. how could I not sense him?” he nudged his shoulders. “But I still think it a wrong decision to stay.”“Why?” Xu Da Ping frowned. “Bai wa
The underwater city was bustling with sea creatures running about and cheerfully conversing. Some young men and woman decorated their hair with barnacles and kelp, making their white hair stand out even more.In a certain stall, a young man in white stood, carefully selecting his hair accessory."this one will look beautiful on you young Hachin," the shopkeeper clam happily whispered rubbing his hands together.The fairy like boy chuckled, hiding his face with a fan. "That's too kind of you sir, I think that red ruby is too flashy on me,""No, no, it will look so beautiful complementing your beautiful red iris," the shopkeeper further added until the young man was convinced. His jade like hands reached for the huge red ruby barnacle pin but another pale hand beat him to it."It will be taking this, sir," a cheerful voice happily said.Hachin glanced at him with a frown. "Qu Wren, why are you trying to steal what's mine," he shouted with a slight frown."Eh, but you didn't buy it yet,
