Chapter 1268 “Labor (4)”
“Mother!” Throwing himself over to Bai Yan’s side, he cries out in fright, “Let’s go back okay? I don’t want the celestial fox’s blood anymore, let’s go home….”
“We’ve already come this far, there’s no turning back anymore Xiachen. There’s only a hundred meters away, we must reach the top!” Closing her eyes, Bai Yan’s mind brought up the image of that ghoul like version of her son merging together with the light one. Only with that picture did her heart firm up again.
Even if I have to crawl, I must crawl up here! No one can stop me from saving my son!
Grinding a streak with her knee along the snow, she slowly climbs up to her feet by clinging onto the cliff side.
I must get up there. The celestial foxes will only show themselves if I’m at the peak, I must get up there!
At the thought, she then stares down at her belly and rubbed the life that’s within herself.
Child, you must protect yourself, for your brother, I can only persist!
I also believe you will be born safely into this world and stay with me for life!
Bai Xiachen saw how determined his mother was and decides to stop crying despite the tears still coming out. He’s learned enough through the years he’s not supposed to show weakness when Bai Yan’s trying so hard already.
Together, one small and one big figure continued to climb this difficult mountain pass. But the mountain wouldn’t just ease up on its relentless nature just because the two were showing determination. The more they climbed, the colder it became until Bai Yan felt like her body’s being taken over by frostbites. Nevertheless, the pair eventually did reach the peak of this snowy mountain. Though it took far more time than necessary, from daytime to nightfall, they’ve made it….
Perhaps it’s the fact that she’s reached the goal, or the fact that the strange pressuring aura around this mountain has dissipated, but Bai Yan collapsed the second she felt it was far enough. This would’ve been fatal if it was under normal circumstances, however, there’s one good thing out of all this – her powers back!
Immediately, the woman summoned up her internal energy to course through her veins and brought a wave of warmth to the body.
“Mother!” Bai Xiachan pounced at the collapsed woman after seeing her terrible condition. He wanted to dearly to check her health, but the inner restraint brought the boy back to his senses and stopped him from doing anything rash.
“You’re so silly Xiachen.” Breaking out a smile, Bai Yan gently pokes at the little steambun’s temple.
Because the boy was a half breed, part human and part demon, he’s able to interchange between both races with his aura. But just then when he cried out after she collapsed, the boy had stopped using his demon aura and reverted back to the human version, making him susceptible to the same pressure that Bai Yan’s been fending off until now.
“Mother,” face planting his plump face against her belly, “I’m not afraid of suffering, I only want to be with you. I’m too small to help carry some of the weight from you so I can only do this. I don’t want you to suffer alone Mother.”
