Chapter 1238 “Father’s Love (2)”

Di Cang’s frown had deepened greatly over the behavior of his boy. If it was in the past then he could most certainly subdue the little steambun using his powers. However, he’s lost too much blood from saving Bai Yan, making him incapable despite his will to do so. Coupled with the violent behavior of his son, it’s a sure-fire way to rouse heavy resistance and that would be dangerous for him and the child.

“Damn it!” He curses, determined on his next course of action.

Right as the boy was about to throw another punch, Di Cang had closed the distance and used his arms to grapple Xiachen into a bind.

“Bai Xiachen, wake up this instant!” The demon king’s voice made a heavy blow to the kid’s mind in an attempt to bring him back to reality.

But clearly Bai Xiachen was too far gone at this point for simple words like a demand to work. Next thing Di Cang knew was the kid biting down at his shoulder and piercing the skin with those fangs like teethes.

Hiss!

He felt the air suck out of him from the excruciating pain. It’s gory and bloody all over his shoulder, but even so, Di Cang refused to let go.

“What exactly happened Xiachen?” Bai Ning took this chance to get up close, her hands covering her lips after getting a clearer look of the boy’s form.

He’s like a true monster, red eyed with claws extended, to call Bai Xiachen a werebeast was a good way to describe his current state.

Just like the lady, Dragon Flame had also started to tear up in the face. Of course, the distress wasn’t over the little steambun’s terrible form, he’s aching over Di Cang’s weakened state and now injured shoulder.

But goodwill always gets awarded when offered. Though Di Cang didn’t intentionally do it, his blood that seeped into Bai Xiachen’s mouth from him biting so much had roused a spark of sanity back into the child.

“I don’t care what you are, but Xiachen is my son so I will not allow you to hurt him!” Di Cang’s tone was heavy and commanding while it echoed across the empty valley.

It can’t be…. Something really exists within Xiachen’s body? This was the thought that came to Bai Ning and Dragon Flame who were the only ones left aside from the injured Bai Yan.

Unfortunately that comment from Di Cang only made the boy even more restless and struggled harder from what he already was doing.

“Mother, I want my mother… They all deserve to die, all die!” After saying this, that young face once again surged with killing intent, the red light in his eerie eye glistening with darkness like a monster from depths of hell.

Going slightly pale at the sudden change, Di Cang’s voice snapped again into an urgent yet harsh tone: “Bai Xiachen! Your mother is not dead so snap out of it!”

Not dead?

It seems those two words were the key. Like thunder clouds being dispersed to reveal the sunlight behind it, a look of clarity returns to the boy for real this time as he eyes his old man.

Mother is not dead? Really not dead?

Taking this opening, Di Cang knew what he had to do and chopped down with his hand against the little steambun’s neck and sent him limp.

“What’s wrong with Xiachen?” Bai Xiachen nervously asks, afraid of what the possibilities are.

“There is a grudge within his body. It’s full of resentment and hate, that’s why he would attack anyone and everyone nearby earlier!”
