Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress - Vol. 1 - Chapter 13 - For Our Daughter

When Ning Yechen rushed back to the wooden house, he detected a silhouette anxiously coming toward him and smiled. He quickly came down from midair, landed on the ground in the forest, and walked over slowly.

Before long, Luo Ruying quickly appeared in front of Ning Yechen. “Great. I finally found you.”

Seeing that Ning Yechen was fine, Luo Ruying heaved a sigh of relief.

When she saw the calm look on his face, she could not help feeling angry.

Worried that there were monster beasts lurking nearby, she had sent Luo Hongye home and then had anxiously gone looking for him.

In the end, he showed up looking very relaxed without the slightest concern for danger.

Luo Ruying glanced at Ning Yechen frustratedly. “In the future, don’t bother with the pests. It’s very dangerous here!”

“Are you worried about me?” Ning Yechen asked knowingly.

Luo Ruying’s face blushed crimson as she glared cutely at Ning Yechen. “I-I was just worried about our daughter losing her father.”

“Oh, really? Were you really just worried for our daughter?” Ning Yechen walked up to Luo Ruying with a knowing smile.

They were close as they looked at each other. Just one more step, and they would touch each other.

Luo Ruying’s heart could not help pounding. She moved back slightly as the blush on her face deepened.

She glared at Ning Yechen irritably.

Even at a time like this, he was still teasing her!

She was an Empress from the Heavenly Realm, but a mortal man was doing this to her!

“Really, I’m doing this for our daughter. Come on. Let’s go back,” Luo Ruying said huffily before turning to go back.

Seeing Luo Ruying’s incensed back, Ning Yechen smiled.

He lowered his head to look at his feet, and an idea came to him. He immediately broke his right leg.

“I accidentally injured my leg earlier. I’m afraid I can’t walk back…” Ning Yechen said sadly to Luo Ruying after dragging his leg for a couple of steps.

Hearing this, Luo Ruying turned her head, and an anxious look emerged on her face. She hurriedly walked up in front of Ning Yechen, squatted down, and examined his right leg.

The bones in his right leg were broken. He was seriously injured!

But just a moment ago, his walking seemed fine!

“Why did you just say it? Seriously! Why are you so careless? If I didn’t come looking for you, what would you have done?” Luo Ruying looked at Ning Yechen exasperatedly with worry in her eyes.

With this injured leg, if he ran into a monster beast in the forest, he was bound to die!

“Sorry for making you worry.” When Ning Yechen saw the concern in Luo Ruying’s eyes, along with her genuine anger, he was delighted, and his lips curved upward.

Luo Ruying could only bandage and secure Ning Yechen’s leg before turning around and squatting down with her back facing him. “Come on. I’ll piggyback you.”

No one knew if any strong monster beasts were nearby.V/IssịT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).𝘤𝑜/𝓂 for the b/est novel reading experi/en/ce

It would be best if she piggybacked Ning Yechen back.

Ning Yechen showed a cunning smile when his scheme succeeded. He lay on Luo Ruying’s back without a second thought and held her shoulders.

Luo Ruying’s back was very warm, and she gave off a faint and sweet-smelling scent.

Ning Yechen decided to bury his cheek on her back.

Luo Ruying blushed even harder. Considering Ning Yechen’s injury, she did not say anything to him.

With a jump, she quickly went through the woods toward the wooden house.

In a few breaths, Luo Ruying piggybacked Ning Yechen back to the wooden house and let him sit on the bed.

“Daddy! I was so worried about you!” Seeing Ning Yechen return, Luo Hongye pounced into his arms and rubbed her cheek on him.

“Sorry for making you worry.” Ning Yechen hugged Luo Hongye dotingly and rubbed her little head.

The little girl had been very worried when he did not return to the wooden house with them.

Luo Ruying happily watched them interact and smiled. She told Ning Yechen to stay put and not go out before she left the wooden house.

She planned to go to the herb garden to pick some herbs and make medicated cream for Ning Yechen.

While she was there, she wanted to inspect the vicinity for monster beasts and set up a formation to keep the wooden house safe!

This simple wooden house was not safe at all. There was not a single security feature!

She did not know how the man managed to survive for so long.

Had he encountered any monster beasts, he would never have had the chance to see them again.

She had to defend their family and home!

Since there was a large variety of herbs in the garden, Luo Ruying soon found what she needed.

Afterward, using the wooden house as the center, Luo Ruying checked for the presence of any monster beasts within a 25-kilometer radius.

After checking the place, Luo Ruying felt puzzled.

She was unable to detect the presence of monster beasts at all!

When she first arrived, she was sure that there were lots of monster beasts.

She was perplexed about where they had gone.

Also, there was a large heavenly herb garden here. The rich spiritual energy and medicinal fragrance were bound to attract monster beasts.

This did not make sense at all!

The dark-scaled dragon from earlier was nowhere to be seen!

This was odd!

The unusual situation made Luo Ruying frown.

Since there were no monster beasts in the vicinity, it would save her the trouble of slaughtering them.

Luo Ruying buried spirit stones within a 25-kilometer radius of the wooden house, set up a formation, and activated the spirit stones.

The spirit stones connected to form a massive defensive formation surrounding the wooden house.

The formation gradually turned transparent. Even upon scrutiny, it was difficult to detect its presence.

After doing this, Luo Ruying felt better.

Even though she was unable to set up a strong formation with her current cultivation, it was enough to stop those at the Divine Being realm.

By the time Luo Ruying returned, the sky had gradually turned dark.

Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye were playing, and he was throwing her in the air.

Seeing her return, the two of them spoke in unison.

“Welcome back, Dear~”

“Mommy~”

Luo Ruying smiled and nodded.

She looked around the house and hesitated briefly before asking with a blush, “What do you do about bathing?”

Ever since she escaped from the Heavenly Realm, she had not bathed.

In the Heavenly Realm, she used to bathe daily.

She had not bathed in days, and she was unbearably uncomfortable!

She could go without sustenance, but she could not go without bathing!

After looking around, she did not notice any wooden tubs for bathing. Also, she did not see any bathing facility outside the house either.

Luo Ruying felt worried.

Hearing that she wanted to bathe, Ning Yechen became enthusiastic. “Do you want to bathe? I know the perfect spot!”
