C8 My Baby be Good I'm Here
"Great Commander!" Lau Feng and Yang Yan exclaimed in unison as they looked towards her.
Once they were sure she wasn't joking, they quickly nodded in agreement, "At your command, Great Commander!"
"Daughter, my dear daughter, is that really you?"
In the operating room, Yang Yan, the sole survivor, finally snapped back to reality.
The one the Shen family had discarded, just to earn the Mo family's forgiveness, was now someone of great importance.
Great Commander!
She wasn't sure of the exact rank, but the way Lau Feng, the War Department Commander from Ling City, treated Shen Qinghuang gave her a pretty good idea.
Crawling over to Shen Qinghuang, she clung to her legs, her face buried in tears, "My dear daughter, it's been four years. Have you been well?"
"You never sent a letter home, leaving your father and me in constant worry about you!"
"Enough!" A chill emanated from Shen Qinghuang.
She remembered how they had disregarded her life, intent on marrying her off to the Third Young Master of the Mo family.
Later, when they discovered her pregnancy, they had her undergo a forced abortion and discarded her in Sin Valley, all for the sake of the Mo family's forgiveness.
And now, she had the audacity to speak such words?
Looking down at Yang Yan clinging to her legs, Shen Qinghuang felt a wave of revulsion.
"Let go! Or you'll die!"
Sensing the murderous intent radiating from Shen Qinghuang, Yang Yan instinctively let go.
How had this shameless wretch become so formidable?
Fortunately, she thought, there must still be some lingering affection in Shen Qinghuang's heart for her mother.
Yes, lingering affection. Otherwise, why hadn't Shen Qinghuang killed her?
With this thought, she resolved to return to the Yang family as soon as she left.
She recalled that the Yang family had a brother who was a Three-star High Level Commander in Dragon City.
She would see how this Great Commander would dare to be so arrogant then!
After pushing Yang Yan away, Shen Qinghuang turned to look at Xiaobao on the nearby children's bed.
She had heard her son make a noise; he must be waking up soon.
The child was still young, and the sight of bloodshed on the ground was too much. It was best to shield him from it.
She tiptoed to the crib and gently cradled Xiaobao in her arms.
"Mommy..."
In his slumber, Xiaobao's eyes fluttered open, he called out to her, and then drifted back to sleep.
"Sweetheart, be good. Mommy's here."
Yun Zheng vigorously rubbed his eyes, doubting what he was seeing.
The Great Commander, renowned for her divine strategy in the Chaotic Sea Domain, her decisive actions, and her unwavering resolve.
Could it be that she also had such a tender side?
It turns out that their Great Commander was also incredibly beautiful!
"It's inhuman to administer such a heavy sedative to a child! To kill them off like that, they got off too lightly!"
"Yun Zheng, make arrangements for us to head to Moon Hugging Mountain Manor!"
Shen Qinghuang, holding her son, strode out of the operating room.
Behind her, Yang Yan breathed a deep sigh of relief, confident in her escape.
"Wait, Great Commander! Inside..."
Lau Feng quickly intercepted Shen Qinghuang, "What should we do with the individual inside? And regarding the Shen family, if it's inconvenient for you, we can assist."
"Remove his eyes, sever his tongue, break his limbs, and cast him into Sin Valley to beg."
"As for the Shen family, every last one of them, young and old, will be sent to Sin Valley to toil in the mines. The Divine Phoenix Guard will soon dispatch 20,000 prisoners there, so there's no need for Commander Lau to make an extra journey."
To beg in Sin Valley?
Shen Qinghuang scoffed.
Once Yang Yan found herself in Sin Valley, she would realize just how fortunate those who perished by her spear had been.
