Xu Lan gasped and turned around. He stared at Ka Daiwen with cowbell-like eyes. He was trembling with anger coursing through his whole body. Bouts of air were escaping his lungs through his heavy breaths.
“F*CK! You saw Li Xiu already?”
Ka Daiwen tilted her head and nodded apprehensively, startled by the sheer intensity of Xu Lan’s reaction.
‘Rumble, rumble...’
“Hey! Upstairs! What the hell are you doing! The building is cracking!” The wall connecting the bedroom to the living room was unable to bear the pressure rumbled and collapsed. The ruckus scared a man on the second floor. He was having sex in broad daylight, and after losing his erection, he cursed loudly in a hoarse voice.
“...” Xu Lan frowned as he looked at the circumstances before him. “Can I wake him up now?”
Ka Daiwen casted a sideways glance at Bai Wu. With her disorderly black mist, she gracefully climbed up Bai Wu’s body and used her paws to cover his nostrils.
“... Ohh, Papa...” A confused Bai Wu opened his eyes halfway and saw a pair of faintly discernible emerald eyes among the black mist. Startled, he jumped up and backed off, resulting in a loud clatter. Xu Lan smiled bitterly while rubbing his forehead. He wondered if the house was still habitable.
Bai Wu glanced around him and looked back at Xu Lan with a frightened expression. White mist began rising as he lifted Ka Daiwen by the neck. He then walked over to Xu Lan slowly.
“I’m sorry, Papa. I didn’t know it would be like this...” The swaying chandelier crashed audibly along with the rest of it. Bai Wu lowered his head and crushed the rubble beneath his foot, afraid of looking Xu Lan in the eye.
“Ah, forget about it. We should get a new home.” Seeing Bai Wu’s disposition, Xu Lan swallowed whatever curse words that were on the verge of being spat out. He helplessly continued his sentence and said, “Also, a car. It’ll be easier for you to go to work.”
“Mm, but why is she here?” Bai Wu squinted and asked disgruntledly as he cautiously placed Ka Daiwen between them. Back then, he should never have accepted Xu Lan’s suggestion to bring Ka Daiwen along, because, in recent times, she was always around them. She was a distraction and there was always a possibility that she might be the cause of an accident in waiting.
“Li Xiu is here. Would Qiao Yi also come here when the time comes?” Xu Lan did not answer Bai Wu’s question but instead asked a question of his own.
“...” Bai Wu seemed offended. He threw Ka Daiwen onto the bed and replied in dismay, “If he comes, so be it. He might not even make it. You don’t need to bother yourself with all this, I’ll handle it.”
“You disgrace! I know you hate humans, but if you and Qiao Yi start battling, don’t you realize what effect that will have here? Please don’t tell me you’ve never thought of all that!” While saying so, Xu Lan lifted his hand and motioned as if to slap Bai Wu, but the latter stood unflinchingly and did not even blink. In the end, his palm was redirected to his own face instead of Bai Wu’s.
“XU LAN! What are you doing?!” Xu Lan’s face became swollen immediately. Bai Wu grabbed his hand roughly and reprimanded him.
“Do we still have enough time to go to another dimension? This... this is the place that I grew up in.” Xu Lan grasped his fist and asked solemnly.
“There isn’t any time left! Xu Lan! Look at me when I speak!” The sound of Bai Wu gnashing his teeth was extremely loud. He was trembling with exasperation and grasping Xu Lan’s hand in a nearly bone-breaking grip.
“Am I that unworthy of your trust? I said I’ll handle it!” Bai Wu snarled and forced Xu Lan to look directly at him. Within the stillness of the room, the veins on Bai Wu’s face were bulging along with the continuous pulsation of his temples.
The lingering after-effects of emotion had yet to subside, and coupled with his raging fury, his heart felt as though it was burning! He had the impression that he would always have to live in the shell of being a child; always hiding under Xu Lan’s subjective idea of a protective umbrella.
“I will find Li Xiu as fast as I can. Qiao Yi’s pursuit of me is simply to prevent me from ever going back to the dragon clan. I’ll tell him that I will never step foot in there again...”
“NO!” Upon hearing those words, Ka Daiwen leaped up to Xu Lan’s shoulder and looked at Bai Wu straight in the eye. “In order to preserve his position, Qiao Yi is conducting modification experiments on the dragon clan’s strongest warriors. Many of those valiant and fearless warrior dragons died in the experiments. Those who resisted him were stripped of their original bodies, and have been locked up in all kinds of enclosures...”
“! He’s using his own kind for experimentation! Why didn’t you say this earlier!” Bai Wu grabbed Ka Daiwen by her neck and slowly began tightening his grip. His pupils, blazing with wrath.
