Chapter 401: The Cicadas Are Chirping, and People Are Losing It
The Blood Demon could almost be said to be the sworn enemy of the Ancestor Dragon clan in this world.
That’s why Long Xiao back then, at all costs, wanted to eliminate the Blood Demons entirely, driven by an overwhelming fear that stemmed from their bloodline.
At this moment, Long Huan felt the unreserved Blood Demon aura emanating from Shi Qingyan, and her fear peaked.
It was that kind of fear, akin to a mouse spotting a hungry wildcat.
“No… it can’t be…”
Long Huan trembled, constantly backing away, the terror in her eyes almost spilling over.
“Daddy said there are no Blood Demons anymore…”
“Did your daddy ever mention why?”
Shi Qingyan’s expression was indifferent as she slowly walked toward her. “Why are there no Blood Demons in the world anymore?”
Before Long Huan could respond, Shi Qingyan continued, absorbed in her own thoughts:
“Because… my kin.”
“Father, mother, brother, sister, younger siblings, playmates from my clan…”
“All were hunted down by your daddy.”
“Now.” She stood in front of Long Huan, who was shaking and collapsed on the ground, revealing a chilling smile.
“I’ve come… to collect the debts from your Ancestor Dragon clan.”
Her fingers gently caressed Long Huan’s cheek.
In that moment, Long Huan trembled as if she had been electrocuted.
Shi Qingyan watched as tears slowly traced down Long Huan’s sweet, pure, angelic face, her voice cracking faintly.
“Sorry…”
“Sorry…”
“Huh?” Shi Qingyan pinched her chin, coldly saying, “Speak louder, can’t hear you.”
“Sorry…”
Long Huan appeared frozen in fear.
A desperate plea was etched on her face as she kept mumbling “sorry,” her eyes dull and hollow from terror.
“Sorry… sorry.”
“Don’t kill me, don’t eat me… I-I was wrong.”
“I shouldn’t have provoked you, shouldn’t have kissed your man.”
“My daddy shouldn’t have exterminated your Blood Demon clan, it’s all my fault… please spare me.”
“At least,” she began to sob pitifully, “spare the child in my belly…”
Seeing her almost begging like a puppy.
Shi Qingyan’s eyes twinkled with the glee of a child who had successfully avenged herself.
Beside her, Young Master Sang could only sigh helplessly, silently feeling sorry for Long Huan.
…Who would’ve thought.
Senior Sister Shi had quite a talent for scaring kids.
She really acted like a Blood Demon orphan burdened with the hatred of her clan’s destruction.
Look at how she frightened the Little Princess.
Senior Sister Shi is just like me. She really knows how to hold a grudge.
What did you expect, you little brat? You just had to provoke her.
If you mess with the wrong person, you have only yourself to blame.
But judging by Shi Qingyan’s amused expression, it was clear she’d been waiting for a chance to get back at this little brat for a long time. Finally, she had the opportunity to retaliate fiercely.
I have to say.
Just a few days ago, this spoiled little princess was throwing her weight around and making unreasonable demands.
Now, to see her trembling, terrified, sitting on the ground, continuously tugging at her clothes while mumbling “please don’t kill me… I’ll do anything…” is quite the refreshing change.
“Alright.”
Young Master Sang crouched down and gently patted the Little Princess’s head, saying with a smile, “Don’t be too scared. You might not end up in trouble.”
“In a bit, I’ll take you to see your daddy, and we’ll see if he’ll obediently bring something to redeem you back.”
He even gently touched her delicate little dragon horns.
“Eh!”
The moment he touched the dragon horns, Long Huan quaked, as if entering a trance, her body convulsing, her face turning beet red.
After a while, she was sweaty and weak, leaning against her legs, clinging tightly to her thighs.
Young Master Sang: “?”
Um… is it that sensitive for dragons?
Actually, he was already quite interested in the horns on her forehead.
But for the past few days, not only would she scold him as “rude” if he even got close, she treated the dragon horns as if they were extremely precious, like a virginity.
Yet now, even though Sang just reached out to touch her horns, Long Huan only shuddered, her cheeks flushed as she shook her head in terror.
But she didn’t dare to stop him.
Finally coming to her senses, Long Huan’s tiny, delicate hands clung tightly to Young Master Sang’s leg, her eyes filled with pitiful tears as she began to sob softly.
“Don’t… don’t kill me…”
“You are… the baby’s daddy.”
“Spare me, spare the child. I-I will do anything…”
Is she still stuck on this part?
Doesn’t she have even a hint of doubt that I’m deceiving her? Not to mention my true identity is already exposed.
Young Master Sang felt a little annoyed, asking, “Little Princess, didn’t you already know my true identity?”
“I’m just a despicable human. You are the noble and powerful Ancestor Dragon.”
“You’re carrying my child. Shouldn’t you feel sad or hate me? Shouldn’t you see the child as dirty and not want it?”
Long Huan looked up with pitiful eyes.
She wiped her tears and forced a strained smile.
“Not at all.”
“It’s my child. You… you are the baby’s daddy.”
“I will also work hard to be a good mom.”
“So… please, don’t let the Blood Demon sister eat me. I won’t taste good, and neither will my child…”
“I… I will ask Daddy to agree to your demands. I can return to the Human Clan with you… as long as you forgive me…”
Hmm…
I feel like the Little Princess has taken quite a hit these last couple of days.
Her mental state doesn’t seem quite right.
Young Master Sang didn’t expect that perhaps in such a fragile mental state, she was already rambling.
She was even saying things like going back with him to the Human Clan and being a good mom.
Is this still the same little brat who was so unruly a couple of days ago?
But Sang ignored it; after all, once he got the Original Immortal Talisman, he would be leaving.
Dealing with this little brat’s psychological issues was something her parents could worry about.
They had spoiled her so much without discipline; it was time to pay the price.
Besides, let’s think about it.
What if this little brat is just saying this to deceive me, to lull me into complacency and find a chance to escape?
He kept his guard up around this clever little princess.
At least until he got the Original Immortal Talisman, he wouldn’t reveal the truth to her.
“Alright.”
Young Master Sang gently lifted the delicate Little Princess Long Huan and turned to Shi Qingyan, saying, “Let’s go.”
“Let’s see what surprises Long Xiao has prepared for us.”
