Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress - Vol. 1 - Chapter 14 - Just a Little Heaty

“I haven’t bathed in days. I want to bathe.” Luo Ruying nodded shyly and asked in an expectant tone, “Where is it?”

“Roughly a kilometer northwest of the back of the mountain, there’s a hot spring at the top of a cliff,” Ning Yechen said with a smile while carrying Luo Hongye.

“H-hot spring?” The moment Luo Ruying heard about the hot spring, her eyes lit up in joy.

She would be happy enough to take a hot bath. After all, the conditions here could not compare to those in the Heavenly Realm.

She did not expect a hot spring to be available on the mountain!

Ning Yechen nodded with certainty.

He had specially prepared the hot spring.

He chose to live in seclusion to enjoy life, so all the necessary facilities were in place.

As the former Demon Lord, he certainly could not live in squalor.

“Yeye, come on. Let’s go bathe.” Luo Ruying excitedly took Luo Hongye from Ning Yechen.

“Shall we bathe together?” Ning Yechen asked with a serious look on his face.

He had never wanted something to happen so badly!

Unfortunately, Luo Ruying rejected him without the slightest hesitation. “No way!”

With her face blushing, Luo Ruying carried Luo Hongye, walked out of the house, and disappeared in a flash.

Ning Yechen was left inside the house by himself.

He shook his head in disappointment. He hesitated briefly about whether he should give chase.

If he followed her and peeped, he wondered if he would be considered a pervert.

Come to think of it, they were husband and wife, so he should not be considered a pervert. At least this was how he convinced himself.

Inside the forest, Luo Ruying ran the entire way with Luo Hongye in her arms.

Lying in Luo Ruying’s arms, Luo Hongye looked up and asked Luo Ruying quizzically, “Mommy, why can’t Daddy bathe with us? He must feel sad about being left home alone.”

Hearing Luo Hongye’s question, Luo Ruying was speechless. For a moment, she did not know what to say.

Even though she had accepted Ning Yechen as her husband, it did not mean that she was ready to bathe with him.

At the thought of sitting in the hot springs naked with Ning Yechen, Luo Ruying shook her head, her face crimson.

Even during her time as an Empress in the Heavenly Realm, she did not let any maid wait on her while she was bathing, let alone bathe with a man!

Luo Hongye kept looking at her intently, so Luo Ruying could only put on a calm expression, squeeze a smile, and explain, “Your father hurt his leg, so it’s inconvenient for him…”

“Can’t you carry him like you carry me?” Luo Hongye asked in an innocent tone.

Luo Ruying went quiet.

She did not know how to argue, so she changed the excuse. “I have to focus on giving you a bath, so he can’t tag along.”

“Really?” Luo Hongye said.

Seeing Luo Hongye open to this reason, Luo Ruying nodded hurriedly. “Uh-huh. I have to bathe you. It’ll take very long!”

Luo Hongye pondered hard. After a brief silence, she raised her head, looked at Luo Ruying, and said firmly in a child-like tone, “Mommy, then I won’t bathe. You can bathe with Daddy!”

“Cough, cough, cough!” Hearing this, Luo Ruying staggered and nearly fell from midair. This child is really…

“Next time! Next time, we will bathe together, okay? Tonight, it will be just us.” Luo Ruying was unable to make Luo Hongye change her mind, so she could only agree.

“Okay. Then, can I bathe with you two together?” Luo Hongye asked expectantly.

“Sure.” There was nothing else Luo Ruying could do except to agree.

After a few days, the child would probably forget.

During their conversation, Luo Ruying jumped and flew up a cliff.

On top of the cliff, there was dense vegetation and a small path.

Following the small path, they found their way to a large steaming hot spring roughly a few meters wide before long!

There was really a hot spring here!

Luo Ruying was delighted. First, she helped Luo Hongye take off her clothes and put her in the hot spring.

“Mommy, the water is nice and warm. Get in quick.” Luo Hongye happily played with water and waved at Luo Ruying, who was by the side of the hot spring.

Luo Ruying smiled. She reached out her hands to take off her outer and innerwear.

A gorgeous body with black hair hanging behind her appeared under the bright moonlight, standing in the hot spring steam vaguely visible.

Someone hiding in the trees fell into a daze.

After careful thought, Ning Yechen had decided to follow secretly.

But make no mistake, he was not here to peep.

He was here to protect Luo Ruying and Luo Hongye in secret!

If anything happened, he could secretly help. At least this was how he convinced himself.

When Luo Ruying stepped into the hot spring, she suddenly turned her head and looked behind cautiously.

She was unsure if it was her imagination, but she kept feeling someone was looking at her.

She had arranged a formation. Within a 25-kilometer radius, no monster beasts nor humans could approach without her knowing.

_Could it be him? _The first person crossing Luo Ruying’s mind was Ning Yechen, but she quickly shook her head and dismissed the thought.

She had just flown over with Luo Hongye not long ago. Since Ning Yechen was injured, it was impossible for him to get here.

It could not be him!

She was probably imagining things.

Luo Ruying did not continue thinking about it. She dipped into the hot spring, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.Upstodatee from n(0)/v𝒆/lbIn/.(co/m

In an instant, it felt as though she was reinvigorated.

Luo Hongye swam obediently into Luo Ruying’s arms. She sat in front of her mother, looking very pleased while Luo Ruying cleaned her hair and body.

Ning Yechen sat on a branch while quietly watching them bathe with a smile on his face.

He had no dirty thoughts in his mind as he watched.

But the moment Luo Ruying stood up in the hot spring, Ning Yechen’s nose bled uncontrollably.

In centuries, no one had made him bleed, but his blood was flowing now…

After an hour, Luo Ruying finished bathing in satisfaction and went back to the wooden house with Luo Hongye.

Luo Ruying’s glistening hair was undone, falling behind her shoulders to her waist. She looked slightly flushed and captivating.

When Ning Yechen saw her, he could not help recalling the hot scene he had chanced upon earlier, and blood flowed out of his nose again.

“Why is your nose bleeding?” Luo Ruying walked to Ning Yechen with a worried look on her face.

She was worried that he might have suffered other injuries and was hiding it from her.

For the first time, Ning Yechen turned around awkwardly and explained, “I’m fine. Don’t worry. I’m just a little heaty.”
