Chapter 180
Yan turned his head, following the aura of his father, back to the vicinity of the village he first discovered. As he sharpened his vision to survey the village, Yan’s face hardened. Dark smoke was billowing from the village. It was clear, even if unspoken, that an urgent crisis had unfolded.
“Wait here for a moment!”
The command was cut short as young Yan, who had been seated on a wooden chair, seized the moment.
Crack!
With all his might, the young Yan clutched at the hem of his garment.
“I want to go with you too.”
“What?”
As Yan turned, the young one spoke with a quivering voice.
“Ah... Whenever father says such things, he always comes back hurt!”
Moved by the young Yan’s sobbing, Yan shook his head and embraced him, a silent promise that no matter the gravity of the situation, they would face it together.
