Chapter 1
Mommy Will Take You to Find Your Daddy
Ten years later, Demon Realm Forest
Amidst the towering mountains and encircling forests, a wooden house stood prominently in the vast wilderness.
In the courtyard, Ning Yechen, wearing a pair of self-made sunglasses, lay on a rocking chair, holding a glass of freshly squeezed Heavenly Fruit juice, his expression lazy and content.
As the rocking chair gently swayed, he leisurely enjoyed the sunbath.
This was the life!
Sleeping in every day until he naturally woke up, with no one to disturb him, no need to go to school or work, and no need to fight and kill.
When hungry, he could eat the Heavenly Fruits, Heavenly Herbs, and Spirit Medicines he grew himself.
He could also go fishing in the lake where he raised fish.
A carefree life!
Compared to his previous days of constant fighting and killing, going to different realms to cause trouble, this was the kind of life he yearned for!
The only imperfection was that he had been living here alone for over a hundred years, and he was indeed feeling a bit bored…
There were no phones in this world, no means of entertainment. Repeating the same routine every day, even a hundred years could get tiresome.
Although there were a few creatures who could talk to him, they were terrified of him, which wasn’t very interesting.
This couldn’t help but make Ning Yechen recall the beautiful dream from ten years ago…
For the past ten years, whenever he felt bored, he would involuntarily think of that night.
The experience of that night was deeply etched in his mind, making it truly hard to forget…
Could it be that he had been single for hundreds of years and was feeling lonely…?
Ning Yechen couldn’t help but wonder.
Otherwise, it was hard to explain why he had been constantly recalling that night recently…
At the time, he was only thinking of saving that woman’s life and not wanting to disturb his secluded life; he hadn’t thought much of it.
But now, it had become something he couldn’t forget…
However, he didn’t even know her name, and they would probably never meet again…
Ning Yechen shook his head, dispelling the distracting thoughts and closing his eyes.
Since he had decided to live in seclusion, he shouldn’t think about these things anymore…
Just then, Ning Yechen suddenly opened his eyes again.
Someone was coming!
His divine sense clearly detected one, no, two figures approaching him!
Someone was actually able to come here?
That was truly rare…
Interesting!
He had been living in seclusion here for a hundred years, and only that woman had intruded ten years ago.
Apart from that, no one else had ever found this place.
As if he had discovered something amusing, Ning Yechen’s lips curled into a slight smile. He clapped his hands, and the barrier enveloping the wooden house instantly dissipated.
He wanted to see what these people were up to…
…
In the dense forest, a woman with a graceful figure and stunning beauty slowly walked through the trees.
Her face was slightly pale, and her expression showed fatigue.
On her back, she carried a little girl, no more than three or four years old, with features as delicate and beautiful as a porcelain doll.
The little girl had beautiful black hair, a chubby face with delicate features, and bright, intelligent eyes that curiously scanned the forest. In a sweet voice, she asked the woman:
“Mommy, where are we going?”
“Didn’t Ye Ye say she wanted to see Daddy~?”
“Mommy will take you to find your Daddy…”
Luo Ruying turned her head, a gentle and loving smile directed at the little girl on her back, her daughter.
Although a kind and loving smile graced her face, a hint of worry and concern flashed in her eyes.
Ten years had passed, and she never thought that one day she would return to the Mortal Realm with her child to find the man from that night…
Strangely, despite following her memories and wandering for a long time, she couldn’t find the wooden house…
Could he have left…?
That was also possible…
For a mere mortal, ten years was a very long time.
He might have already moved away from here, perhaps even married and settled down somewhere…
At this thought, the worry in Luo Ruying’s heart could no longer be concealed on her face.
What should she do if she couldn’t find him?
“Really?”
“Mommy, are you going to take Ye Ye to find Daddy?”
Luo Hongye, hearing that Luo Ruying was going to take her to find her daddy, was immediately overjoyed. She quickly moved closer to her face and asked repeatedly.
“Yes! To find Daddy!”
Seeing her child so happy, Luo Ruying couldn’t bear to shatter her illusions and replied with a forced smile.
In her heart, she wasn’t sure if she could actually find Ning Yechen.
After her initial excitement, Luo Hongye’s little head had a big question. Leaning against her mother’s back, she tilted her head and asked:
“Mommy, didn’t you say Daddy died when Ye Ye was born?”
“Uh…”
Luo Ruying was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to answer.
Since Luo Hongye had become aware of things, she often tugged at her, asking where her daddy was.
At that time, Luo Ruying had lied to her, saying that her father unfortunately passed away when she was born…
Now, suddenly saying she was taking her to find her father was indeed a bit strange…
“Ye Ye, actually… actually your daddy isn’t completely dead!”
Luo Ruying racked her brains and could only come up with this excuse.
Luo Hongye blinked her big, innocent eyes and actually believed Luo Ruying’s words. She innocently asked:
“So, Daddy is still alive, right Mommy?”
“Yes! That’s right!”
Luo Ruying quickly nodded in agreement.
She thought she could get away with it, but she didn’t expect Luo Hongye to continue questioning:
“Then why hasn’t Daddy come to find Ye Ye and Mommy?”
“Does Daddy not want Ye Ye and Mommy anymore…?”
As she spoke, Luo Hongye’s eyes reddened, and crystal tears welled up in her eyes.
Luo Ruying was startled. She quickly brought Luo Hongye from her back into her arms and patted her back, soothing her:
“No, Ye Ye.”
“How could your daddy not want you?”
“He, he… he actually suffered very serious injuries and has been hiding here to heal!”
“He didn’t tell Ye Ye because he was afraid you would worry!”
This was the most suitable excuse Luo Ruying could come up with.
She couldn’t possibly tell her that her father actually didn’t even know she existed…
Luo Hongye didn’t doubt Luo Ruying’s words at all and immediately stopped crying, her small face filled with concern.
“Then is Daddy alright now?”
“He’s fine, he’s fine…”
Luo Ruying smiled gently.
Just then, Luo Ruying suddenly stopped in her tracks, her expression becoming extremely grave and serious, her sharp gaze sweeping the surrounding forest.
There was the aura of a demonic beast…!
And the aura seemed quite strong!
She hadn’t noticed it when she came here ten years ago, but there was actually a demonic beast with considerable strength here!
In her current state, she wasn’t sure if she could handle it…
Luo Ruying held Luo Hongye tightly in one arm, while her other hand reached for the heavenly sword at her waist, ready to deal with a sudden attack.
However, in the next second, the faint demonic beast auras around them suddenly dissipated, as if they had scattered and fled, vanishing without a trace.
Why did the auras disappear…?
Could it be that they sensed her aura and were afraid?
Just as Luo Ruying was puzzled, a delicate wooden house suddenly appeared before her eyes, not far away!
Strange!
She hadn’t noticed the wooden house there before; it was as if it had appeared out of thin air!
Although Luo Ruying was filled with doubts, seeing the familiar wooden house from her memories brought a joyful smile to her face.
She had found it!
This was the place!
