Chapter 1781 “The Cure (6)

Unbeknownst to everyone in the Heavenly Domain, there’s in fact a room devoid of sunlight in the Monarch Manor. Aside from the vent hole coming through the entrance door, this place held a suffocating atmosphere to those unused to it, truly a compound normally reserved for the worse of criminals. However, that was not the case here. In fact, it’s Ji Song’s personal bedroom, the beloved granddaughter of Elder Sky who holds immeasurable power and authority within this estate.

At this moment, Song had her body curled up into a fetal position atop of her bed, those limbs shivering from the cold and darkness. Not even she knows how long this painful experience would continue, nor does she know when the light would arrive in her life.

Suddenly, the door squealed due to the metal hinges being swung open and in came two young maids with a box in each of their hands.

“Miss Song, your grandfather Elder Sky tasked us to bring you these, it’s the Phoenix Feather and Soul Fruit you requested.”

“Grandfather?” Taken aback at the grand news, she gradually shifted her gaze down to the two boxes in front of herself with hope beaming out of those eyes.

“Where’s my grandfather?” She asks after ordering them to leave it on the table.

“Oh, Elder Sky is still at the council hall.”

“I’m going to see Grandfather, you two don’t have to follow me.” Song carefully wraps the two boxes around her arm while pressing down her inner excitement so others won’t grow suspicious.

“But, Miss…” one of the maids frowned.

Elder Sky said we must protect Miss Song, how can we just leave without permission?

“It’s night right now so there’s no sun. Besides, I’m going to see my grandfather, not some random place, what are you so nervous for?” Song glances at the maid with a reprimanding face, “I’ll come back once I see him, you stay here and wait for me.”

After saying this, the sickly and morbid looking lass ignored the protesting maid in the rear and bolted out of the dark room. Of course, the two frantic maids wanted to give chase, but the repeated warning glares from Song sent them back in the end.

Just as Song was about to reach Bai Yan’s yard, an unexpected encounter occurred. With a touch on her should from the back, she nearly jumped with fright and swung around. Thankfully the face that came into sight wasn’t some unfamiliar face, rather it’s the pipsqueak herself!

“Ling Yan, how come it’s you?” She pursed her lips and asked in a state of shock.

Giggling with delight as she got closer to her friend, the pipsqueak gets all happy in the voice: “Are you here to see my mother?”

“Mhmm,” said Song with a flush tone on those cheeks, “I found the Phoenix Feather and Soul Fruit like she instructed. She said that as long as I have these two ingredients then I can be cured for sure. I didn’t tell my grandfather though, I didn’t want to give him false hope and disappoint him, that’s why no one knows I’m here. Can you keep this a secret for now?”

Patting her chest in a I’m reliable manner, the pipsqueak cocks her head high in a proud manner: “Of course, I can keep a secret, I’m not like my brother who can be bought with a steambun.”
