Chapter 957 “Undergarment Baby (2)”
“You don’t have to worry . When Di Cang asks, you can tell him I insisted on entering . ” That said, Bai Yan immediately turns to the two males of her group, “Let’s go . ”
Swoosh~!
Apparently the urge within Piggy was higher than they expected . Before they knew it, the little guy had zipped ahead again at incredible speed .
Seeing this, Mo Li Shang and Bai Yan only spent a brief moment of being stunned until they too followed inside . In a blink of an eye, the only ones left were the elder and his men from the Wing Clan at the base .
“Elder, what should we do?” The guards were exchanging looks of unease between themselves because they know the king won’t go easy on their clan if something happens to the queen .
Making a bittersweet smile, Fei Yi was just as helpless as his subordinates: “What else can we do? Go in of course . We can’t let any harm come to the queen . ”
Just like that, the elder didn’t wait and quickly ran up the mountain trail with his people . There’s alarm in their eyes regarding every spec of greenery and terrain they came across, however, there were no danger to be found today . In fact, all were peaceful . Forget about the dangers mentioned by Fei Yi, there’s not even a predator to be found anywhere, only the faint whistling sound of the mild breeze in the air . Even so, the members of the Wing Clan didn’t dare to let their guards down .
Suddenly, the winged piglet that’s been leading the way had come to a full stop, his face full of sorrow when staring at the distant peak .
Bai Yan and others were confused by the face their friend was making, but it didn’t take long for them to discover why . Tightening in their chest due to the loss of breath, none wanted to utter a word for a minute .
“Fei Yi, did none of your people ever come investigate the mountain here?”
Just like everyone else, the elder was also taken aback by what he’s seeing . If not for Bai Yan’s question, he would still be in a daze by the picture .
“No Your Highness, none of the members of the Wing Clan would dare break into this sacred mountain due to the rule set by our ancestors . ”
“Then what about other demons? Did none ever wander into this place by mistake?” she asks with suspicious eyes .
Shaking his head, Fei Yi kills the idea with his answer . “The whole demonic mountain range is our territory so rarely would an outsider come without invitation . If one does wander into the premise, they would normally be caught long before they reach this place . ”
“I understand then…” Coming up to the little guy’s side, Bai Yan gently gives the piglet a pat on the back as a form of consoling gesture .
Those bones in front of them have all likely been there for quite a while . Strangely enough, these things are still pristinely white like the effects of time didn’t affect them at all . But one thing’s for sure though, these bones are all pigs with a pair of wings on their back .
Mo Li Shang on the other hand couldn’t bring himself to say anything when seeing the sorrowful face his little friend was making . He’s choking for words and wanted to cry as well because only he would know the truth . It’s not like Piggy doesn’t want to have a family, he just didn’t know where they were, that’s why they’ve been traveling for so long – it’s to locate said family .
Unfortunately, fate likes to toy with those still living . Though they’ve finally managed to find Piggy’s kinsmen, they’re all dead and were nothing but a pile of white glossy bones on this earth . Compounding the sadness was the amount of time it must’ve been since these creatures were alive . It couldn’t have been recent if Fei Yi’s words are to be believed .
“Uuuhhhwooohhh . ” Piggy’s voice sounded so painful and heart wrenching that even the world seems to have darkened around them .
Normally the gloomy atmosphere would only be a play of the mind, but in this case, it’s a fact . There’s a mysterious power on this mountain answering the piglet’s call .
Moments later, Piggy’s sobbing had stopped and he began to start digging at the ground with his little trotters . Of course, the mood didn’t lighten up at all and the tears continued to flow downwards through all this .
