Chapter 2 Killing Intent

But now, looking at the white robes that her daughter used to loved and wear, her eyes couldn't help but water again. She bit her lips as she quietly sobs.

She regretted it.

Why was she afraid of breaking the rules? Is rules are more important than her daughter's life?

The answer was No...

Even if it was just breaking the rules, if she knew that her daughter would die, she would die breaking the rules, even if she was crippled and be thrown out of the Esper's World; she would gladly accept it as long as she could save her daughter's life. Even if sacrificing her life to save her daughter, she would do it without regrets, but time can't rewind and regret can't bring a dead person back to life.

She wanted to avenge her daughter's death, but even the Esper beast who had killed her daughter was still a mystery, and she couldn't blindly massacre Esper beasts or else the consequences would be hard to bear. Even several years has passed, but her daughter's killer still wasn't found and the killing intent hidden in her heart was growing stronger day by day.

She wanted revenge!

But how...?

She couldn't even manage to find out whose the killer...

Who's going to kill whom...?

Silently, a shadow silently appears behind her. It was a 70-year-old white-robed woman silently appear behind her back, carrying an old broken stick supporting her old body. The old woman looked so weak and fragile, but her calm, hazy silver eyes. The eyes that had seen countless things, without a ripple, can be clearly seen from her wrinkled face, but despite that. An eye-catching silver badge on the old woman's chest made someone who had seen it would have to pay respect and look at the old woman with reverence.

A moon with nine stars...!

According to the rules of the Moon God Temple; only the Supreme Moon Pontiff are eligible to have a moon carved on his badge, and that would mean that this fragile old woman is currently the Supreme Moon Pontiff of the Mysterious Moon God Temple!

However, worthy of having a lofty position. She doesn't have the air of arrogance surrounding her body, but rather filled an aura with an ordinary person, but don't let her aura fool you. Being able to sit in the highest position of the Moon God Temple; clearly demonstrate that her strength is no joke and is most likely the strongest person in whole Moon God Island!

However, being the strongest person on the island doesn't mean she's invincible already, she's still a human after all, and humans aren't invincible at all. She still didn't manage to predict her granddaughter to enter a calamity, with her strength; she can have at least have a premonition but at that time, it didn't give her a warning.

She ruefully sighed as she looked at her daughter sobbed and watch her cry, her old heart filled with sorrow. Furthermore, she patted her daughter's shoulder and said;

"Let it be, Yue Lin-er. Fate has given her that kind of destiny... We can do nothing but accept it" She said calmly, but her eyes betrayed her words. Her silvery eyes were also filled with sadness.

The 40-year-old woman stopped for a moment until a hoarse voice escaped from her rosy lips, "But mother... I just can't accept it! Yue-er is such a good child, why heaven's take her?"

Her mother just laughed bitterly as her eyes filled with sorrow, "Maybe, it's because my granddaughter is so pretty like a goddess that the gods took her to accompany them? He...he-he...he" she joked to ease the atmosphere between them.

She knew that her mother wanted to make her laugh, so Yue Lin smiled, but her smile couldn't reach her eyes and when she thought of her daughter's appearance, droplets of water dripped from her eyes as she sorrowfully said

"Right, Yue-er is so beautiful and heavenly talented... How can heavens not take her? How can gods not be jealous because of her heaven defying talent?" She gloomily said as she gripped the clothes in her hands:

"How can Gods be so unfair? Why take her! Why not me?!" Her body shook and tears continue to fall.

"Yue Lin-er, you...."

The Supreme Moon Pontiff were shocked by her outburst, the countless years of suffering and missing her daughter she had been suppressing has finally erupted. The Supreme Moon Pontiff's eyes once again moistened, she hurriedly gave her daughter a hug.

Tonight, the unrivalled expert, the Supreme Moon Pontiff was just an ordinary mother who just wants to comfort her daughter and wants to take her away from the pain.

"Yue Lin-er, I understand you... The love you had for your daughter is no worse than my love for my granddaughter, just let the things let go... Little Yue-er won't be happy to see her mother cry because of her".

Yue Lin stop crying for a moment as the killing intent in her heart surged out as she lost control of herself for a moment, her face was dark and her silvery eyes brimming with killing intent as her hand gripped the clothes in her hands even tighter

"This... This is...!" Her heartfelt cold as a familiar aura that she could never forget in her entire lifetime.

"Mother, I can feel it... The killer who killed my daughter.... This aura, I can feel it.... I can't be mistaken." She said with difficulty, barely hiding the killing intent that were spilling from the depths of her heart.

The moment she said it, she quickly stood up and disappear from where she is. The Supreme Moon Pontiff's first reaction were stunned and confused but later on, she gradually understood and her silvery eyes brimming with killing intent as she said in her heart;

'You killed my Granddaughter and you still had the guts to appear in my turfs, how bold.'

She disappeared into shadows and swiftly follow her daughter to the outer perimeter of the Moon God Temple's territory. Yue Lin followed her acute sense to sense the Esper beast who killed her daughter with bloodshot eyes. She can barely calm down, and her chaotic thoughts makes her extremely infuriated and losing the ability to think. At the faced of facing your daughter's killer, which mother who had lost their child can calm down?
