Chapter 1817 - Like a Burst Dam (1/2)
Chapter 1817 - Like a Burst Da and one could even faintly hear the beat of a wildly-pounding heart in the vast still whiteness that seemed to stretch on forever
“Of course I do”
That calm and quiet reply caused Xia Yuanba’s heart to drop in his chest… because he knew that Yun Che was definitely listening
“How can I not hate him?”
She didn’t turn around to look at Xia Yuanba Instead, she kept staring into the distance as her voice turned even colder and gloomier than the boundless snow “He wasn’t around when I was born He wasn’t there as I was growing up He didn’t even cohteen”
“He told me that I was his whole world… He told ain… He told me that he’d be back before I even knew it… He told row older, tothat he owed me…”
“But… he broke every proain…”
“He’s the most unreliable father, the most ill-qualified father… the worst father in the world”
Her voice was very soft and light, and although it sounded a little faint at times, one couldn’t hear any eher than where her senses could reach, Yun Che slowly closed his eyes He had clenched his jaw so hard that a s from the corner of his mouth
Shui Meiyin stretched out a hand to wipe away the blood before she gently closed her palm
“He clearly said that… he wouldn’t allow anyone to steal hi to abandon ain…”
“I hate him, I hate him so much”
After she softly muttered those words, she started to sloalk away
Xia Yuanba couldn’t see her expression right now and her voice had been so cold and calm that it had practically frozen his heart He stretched out a hand to stop her but he simply couldn’t find the words to say
At this time, Yun Wuxin suddenly stopped and turned around to look at hiht into Xia Yuanba’s eyes with those clear and innocent eyes of hers “Have you already h Xia Yuanba, as currently deeply emotional He anxiously waved his hands and exclaimed, “No, no, no, no! Absolutely not! If not, I would’ve… definitely brought hi Xia Yuanba’s reaction, a flowing light flashed through Yun Wuxin’s beautiful eyes She opened herherself several times before she finally asked in a slow and measured voice, “You… really did see hiht?”
Xia Yuanba had always been terrible at lying He wasn’t even as good as your average hu, much less someone like Yun Che, who could spin a web of lies with an absolutely straight face
It would’ve been better if he hadn’t tried to deny it, because this denial had so many holes in it that it was practically an admission in Yun Wuxin’s eyes
“Er… this… I…”
Xia Yuanba panickedly retreated a few steps as Yun Wuxin continued to stare at hi denial, but the moment he opened his ed in defeat instead
“Huuuu…” He let out a long sigh as a look of resignation crossed his face After that, he made sure that he didn’t look towards where Yun Che was as he avoided Yun Wuxin’s gaze and replied, “Yes In truth… I successfully o to the God Realm, and I met your father under extre he said was true this tiave ahen he did try to lie
Once he said those words, Xia Yuanba’s body instantly relaxed He felt guilty toward Yun Che, but he felt a lot better now that he had gotten it all out
Silence… A very long and drawn-out silence ensued after that Xia Yuanba stared at Yun Wuxin with apprehensive eyes as she quietly stood in place Her face was still as cold and calle ripple of emotion could be seen on her face
Yun Wuxin finally spoke, “Then why didn’t he come back to me? Why did he ask you to hide the truth? Did he receive so injury… that crippled him?”
“No, no, absolutely not He’s extreuarantee that much at least”
Since matters had already coer He solemnly said, “There are some very important tasks that he has to complete Tasks so important… that even I can’t quite understand them”
“Wuxin,” Xia Yuanba hurriedly continued, “I understand your father very well The only reason he wouldn’t have returned after all these years is because there have been so hiinably vast, and therehim there”
“However, he did pro that he said himself A promise he was very sincere about”
Xia Yuanba had already racked his brains to craft this answer for Yun Wuxin, so the only thing he could do noas anxiously wait for her response
“Is that so…” Yun Wuxin said in the softest of voices After that, she si Xia Yuanba once ot it Since he didn’t want us to know about the chancethat two of you had, I won’t tell Mother or one for several months, so Absolute Monarch Sanctuary has been worried to death about you You should return as soon as possible and give the into the boundless flying snow even as she said those words
“Wuxin, are… you okay?” Xia Yuanba asked in a worried voice
Unfortunately, he did not receive a reply Yun Wuxin’s figure had already become indistinct and blurry as she disappeared into the neverending blizzard
After Xia Yuanba shot a very apologetic look into the skies above hi for a while, a troubled look on his face After that, he gave a short sigh before he turned around and fleard the south
After all, Frozen Cloud I, and he was no exception
The snoinds were growing more and more frantic This had becoion of Extreo, when the entire Blue Pole Star had shuddered violently Ever since then, this region had grown even colder than it had been before
Yun Wuxin’s steps greer and slower, and before she even knew it, her path had deviated away from where Frozen Cloud Imgered as she fell to her knees in the icy snow
She reently tre more and more intense
A hoarse sob that she desperately tried to suppress rang out in the snoinds
“Da… Daddy…”
She cried out those words in a desolate and le tear fell froht It transformed into the purest and most lustrous snow crystal in the universe as it silently fell into the eternal ice that shrouded this land
“As long as you’re safe… As… long… as you’re safe…”
“As long as you’re safe… I’ll wait for you… no… … it takes…”
