In For It

Shuang Jing didn’t take the child’s glare to heart at all.

He only looked at Huanhuan.

He needed an explanation from her.

Huanhuan was very guilty. “He became like this to save me and the child.”

“Because of you?”

Huanhuan roughly explained how she was attacked by demons and almost killed. Later, she was saved by the prophet.

“The prophet was injured by Zhi and Yan. I tried my best to protect his body, but he never woke up.”

Shuang Jing acutely grasped the key point. “Why did Zhi and Yan attack you and your son?”

Huanhuan said slowly, “Zhi and Yan have a grudge against us. They deliberately set up those demons to lure us here.”

She didn’t mention a word about the demon fetus.

Shuang Jing felt that she had not told the entire truth, but those things had nothing to do with him. He just had to know who had injured the prophet.

“I want to bring the prophet back to the 10,000 Beast Temple.”

Huanhuan was about to agree when she heard Little Brat shout, “Don’t!”

She froze.

Although she didn’t understand Little Brat’s intentions, she still followed his words. “The prophet can’t go back for the time being.”

Shuang Jing frowned. “Why?”

Huanhuan thought to herself that she wanted to know why too!

However, it was not convenient for her to ask Little Brat for the reason in front of Shuang Jing. She could only say vaguely, “The prophet is very weak now. He’s not suitable for a long journey. If we encounter any more trouble along the way, he might…”

Double Mirror believed that he was strong enough to protect the prophet, but he did not know medicine. If the prophet could not hold on on the way, he would be helpless.

He took two steps back and forth, his thick eyebrows furrowed. He looked anxious.

“The prophet has left the 10,000 Beast Temple. If others find out about this, it’ll definitely cause a huge commotion. The prophet has to return as soon as possible to calm people down.”

“But the prophet is unconscious now. What’s the use of sending him back to the 10,000 Beast Temple? If those people find out the truth, they might take the opportunity to end the prophet and usurp the throne.”

“How dare they?!” Shuang Jing was furious.

He was tall and strong, and when he was angry, he was even more terrifying.

Huanhuan shrank back in fear. Clement immediately bared his teeth at Shuang Jing.

‘How dare he be fierce to Mom? I’ll eat him! I’ll eat him now!’

Huanhuan hugged her youngest son tightly. “Be good and listen to me. I’ll bring you to eat something delicious later.”

When Clement heard that he would be able to eat delicious food later, his anger subsided a little, but his eyes were still fixed on Shuang Jing. He thought to himself that if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely eat this guy!

Huanhuan spoke to Shuang Jing as she comforted her youngest son.

“Don’t be in a hurry to be angry. I’m just making an analogy. Power is seductive. You’ve been in the City of 10,000 Beasts for so many years. You should know better than me what crazy things those guys will do to get power. In order to avoid the worst-case scenario, I think it’s better if we don’t send the prophet back for the time being.”

Shuang Jing stopped and looked at her. “Then what do you think we should do?”

“To be honest, I haven’t thought of a good way to have it both ways yet. You have to give me time to think about it carefully.”

Shuang Jing rolled his eyes rudely. “After all this talk, you don’t know what to do either.”

Huanhuan straightened her neck and explained, “The situation in the City of 10,000 Beasts is complicated. I’m not familiar with that place. Of course, I have to be careful.”

“Alright, alright. I’ll give you two days. If you still haven’t thought of a suitable solution in two days, I’ll return to the 10,000 Beast Temple with the prophet.”

Without waiting for Huanhuan’s reply, he picked up the prophet and the stretcher and ran away.

Huanhuan quickly shouted, “Where are you going with the prophet?”

“I’m going to find a safe place to settle him down.”

Not long after he finished speaking, Shuang Jing ran away.

Huanhuan muttered, “He won’t do anything bad with the prophet’s body, right?”

Little Brat was not worried. “Shuang Jing is the closest to the prophet among the 12 divine guards. He worships the prophet and can’t wait to be at his beck and call. He won’t do anything bad to the prophet.”

Hearing his words, Huanhuan was slightly relieved.

She asked the question in her heart, “Why didn’t you let Shuang Jing send the prophet back to the 10,000 Beast Temple just now?”

“What you just said is part of the reason.”

“Is there another reason?”

“You have to send the prophet back to the remains of the divine tomb. That’s the prophet’s hometown and where the unicorns live. You might find a way to wake the prophet there.”

Hearing this, Huanhuan immediately perked up. “Where are the divine tomb ruins? How can I go there?”

“I know the exact direction, but before that, you have to think of a way to stabilize the situation in the City of 10,000 Beasts first. Otherwise, they’ll overturn the City of 10,000 Beasts before the prophet wakes up.”

“Oh.”

General Xiong walked over and looked around. “Where are those two?”

Huanhuan knew that he was asking about Shuang Jing and the prophet.

“They left first.”

General Xiong was confused about the relationship between the three of them. Fortunately, he was not curious, so he did not continue asking.

Under General Xiong’s escort, Huanhuan finally saw Bai Di.

Bai Di had just woken up. He was wearing cold metal armor. Coupled with the fact that he was tall, he looked as majestic as a mountain from afar.

Huanhuan was stunned when she saw him.

At this moment, he was exactly the same as in the prophecy.

She looked at him with wide eyes as if she could see how he fought to his death among tens of millions of enemies, blood dyeing his armor red.

Bai Di was surprised that she would suddenly come to Sun City.

“Why are you here?”

Huanhuan barely suppressed the terrifying images in her heart and said dryly, “I happened to be near Sun City, so I came to look for you. I thought I’d go home with you.”

Bai Di walked up to her. His feet landed on the ground with heavy steps, but he didn’t make a sound.

He wanted to hug Huanhuan, but he thought that his metal armor might make the little female uncomfortable. He could only give up and ask gently, “Did you come alone?”

“I’m here with my son.”

Bai Di followed her gaze.

Clement looked him up and down, his chubby face scrunched up. What was this prey? It looked very gnarly. It definitely wouldn’t taste good!

Huanhuan said slowly, “This is my child with Sang Ye. His name is Clement.”
