Chapter 2009 “Heartache (3)”
Suzaku gritted her teeth in hatred, “Black Turtle has seen it with his own eyes, what misunderstanding can there be? He can betray us once, he can betray us twice. Princess, you are Mistress’s daughter, nothing can happen to you so please keep your distance from him.”
“Mmm, I will listen Suzaku, and I won’t mention him again in the future.”
Though…… in her heart, she always felt that there was something wrong with the events of that year.
Those clean and pure eyes couldn’t be from someone that’s evil, that much the pipsqueak was certain.
But……
Feelings are feelings after all, even if she thinks that Mo Li Shang wasn’t a bad person, it doesn’t compare to her bond with the four sacred beasts.
Suzaku’s heart finally eased up with the promise and didn’t press the matter.
“But Suzaku, what did he mean by what he just said? What is the Hell Domain disappearing? Where did Father and Mother go? Can they still come back to us?” Biting her thumb, the pipsqueak gets all sad and pitiful as she awaits the phoenix lady’s explanation.
Suzaku’s body stiffened. Lowering her eyes in a depressed manner, she barely manages to force a smile:
“They merely temporarily went to another place so don’t worry Princess, everyone will be back very soon. Right now I will help resolve the problem with this Divine Water Stone first. Not only will it inhibit that flame inside your body, it can also turn that bead inside your heart into a lethal weapon for you in the future….”
A flickering light came to life inside the pipsqueak’s eyes as she asked innocently, “In the future, will I also become as strong as everyone? Will I be able to protect Mother and Father?”
“Yes, when Your Highness is strong enough, you will be able to protect everyone as you wish.”
“Mhmm,” the pipsqueak finally smiled, “Suzaku, you help me okay? When I am strong, I will take Second Brother with me and find Mother.”
Suzaku’s heart felt so sad and almost teared up. Putting on a strong face, she leans down and changes her voice into a soothing one: “Princess, this may hurt a little….”
“Ling’er is Mother’s daughter, I am not afraid of a little pain!” That said, the baby princess reached up with her own hand and grabbed the lady’s. Instead of being comforted, her gesture actually helped the other side.
Not saying more since she knew her voice would give away her own sadness, the phoenix lady tightly grasped onto the Divine Water Stone and placed it over the child’s chest. It’s then that a force gradually seeped into Di Ling Yan’s body, causing her to tremble so slightly from the pain.
This would be a first for the pipsqueak to endure a prolonged form of pain. She’s grown up pampered by her family. Sure, there’s been occasions where she did get into a fall or a scratch on the knee, but they have always been remedied right away with medicine.
“Suzaku, go lighter.” Little Rice stomps his feet anxiously as he sees the bead of tears seeping out of the baby’s eye socket. He wants to take her place and endure the suffering right now.
“Highness, are you able to keep going?” Suzaku asks after getting concerned as well.
