Luo Ruying carried Luo Hongye and walked around the garden curiously.
A thought suddenly came to Ning Yechen. He took the opportunity to walk to an empty plot of land not far away.
He had planned to plant crops on this land, but now, he had a different idea!
With a wave of his hand, Ning Yechen scattered countless seeds on the grass.
Ning Yechen snapped his fingers, and countless flowers instantly bloomed on the grass and spread across the land!
The rich scent from the sea of flowers spread everywhere!
Luo Ruying suddenly smelled the flowers and looked at the vividly colored sea of flowers in front of her in a daze.
A gentle breeze came, and beautiful petals flew into the air.
Luo Hongye happily jumped down from Luo Ruying's arms and ran into the flowers.
Ning Yechen walked to Luo Ruying's side and smiled. "What do you think? Like it?"
Luo Ruying turned her head to look at Ning Yechen in disbelief. "D-did you plant them?"
Ning Yechen nodded.
Luo Ruying was astounded.
This was such a beautiful sea of flowers. How much time had it taken him to grow it?
Ning Yechen pulled Luo Ruying into the sea of flowers to enjoy the refreshing fragrance and the gentle breeze.
Ever since escaping from the Heavenly Realm, Luo Ruying had been mentally stressed, worrying about those people coming after her.
At this moment, her tense nerves finally unwound slightly.
Luo Ruying brushed her wind-swept hair with her slender fingers, and a beautiful smile appeared on her face.
Looking at Luo Hongye playing among the flowers not far away, she said, "Yeye, be careful. Don't run too fast or too far."
Ning Yechen looked at Luo Ruying's gorgeous profile in a daze. His heart skipped a beat, and he could not resist putting an arm around her delicate waist.
He had seen plenty of heavenly fairies and demonesses, but he had never felt this way. For some reason, when he looked at Luo Ruying, there were indescribable palpitations in his heart.
Is it because she's my first woman and wife?
Luo Ruying trembled slightly when he suddenly held her waist. A flustered look swept across her eyes, but she did not mind the physical contact.
It was just that her body was tense, and she was very nervous.
Considering her current level of cultivation, it would be easy to free herself from his arm, but she did not do it.
On the one hand, she did not want to hurt Ning Yechen accidentally.
After all, mortals were very vulnerable in the eyes of cultivators.
On the other hand, she did not dislike Ning Yechen and never once looked down on him because he was a mortal.
Even though she had once blamed him for taking her purity, they already had a child. They were truly husband and wife.
It was normal for husbands and wives to hug each other.
Ning Yechen noticed Luo Ruying's stiff body and felt tickled. He leaned close to her ear and whispered softly, "Dear, just relax. I'm not going to eat you~"
These words instantly made Luo Ruying flush crimson. She raised her head and glared at Ning Yechen. "I-I'm not afraid!"
How dare this mere mortal tease me?
Facing Luo Ruying's charming glare, Ning Yechen did not take it seriously. Instead, he found her angry look very adorable and smiled in satisfaction.
Luo Ruying was so angry that her chest heaved up and down. She turned away her blushing face and ignored Ning Yechen.
This irritating man knew that she was a cultivator, but he still dared to tease her.
If it were anyone else, she would have slapped the hell out of him!
While Ning Yechen was interacting alone with Luo Ruying, Luo Hongye, lying among the flowers, spotted a brightly colored butterfly flying past her.
Luo Hongye had never seen butterflies before. Her eyes lit up, and she chased the butterfly.
Before she knew it, she ran to the edge of the flowers, and the butterfly stopped on a flower.
Luo Hongye apparched the butterfly curiously. She wanted to touch it, but it was startled and flew away into the forest.
"Ah, wait." Luo Hongye gave chase, but the butterfly had already disappeared into the forest.
The forest full of trees was too quiet.
Luo Ruying felt afraid. When she turned back to look, she realized that she was very far from her parents.
Just as she was about to hurry back, a massive dark body came from behind her and towered over her petite form.
Luo Hongye turned around, only to see a massive, ferocious dragon with razor-sharp scales standing up with its head sticking out from the trees!
The massive dragon looked at Luo Hongye in surprise as saliva dripped from its mouth. "Look at what I've found! A human! I haven't tasted the flesh of a human in forever!
"I-I-I don't taste good." Luo Hongye retreated tremblingly in fear, but she tripped and fell.
She burst out crying. "Mommy... Daddy!"
Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen promptly heard her crying.
Luo Ruying could not see Luo Hongye and was terribly worried. She immediately dashed toward the sound of Luo Hongye's voice.
"Hahaha! It's useless to call your parents! Just be good and let me eat you! Don't worry. You won't feel a thing!" The dark-scaled dragon opened its cavernous mouth and bit at Luo Hongye.
In the nick of time, Luo Ruying darted out and struck the dark-scaled dragon's face with her sword!
"Get lost! Beast, what do you want to do to my child?" Luo Ruying stood in front of Luo Hongye, holding her sword and looking at the dark-scaled dragon coldly.
The dark-scaled dragon's face was bleeding, and it was in great pain. It stared at Luo Ruying viciously. "Damn human! How dare you injure my face? Other than that man, no one has dared to do this to me!"
Then steel-like sharp tips extended from the dark-scaled dragon's body, and a shocking amount of spiritual energy burst from it.
The dark-scaled dragon was at the Divine Being realm! This meant that this monster beast was at the Monster King level!
A look of shock and wariness appeared in Luo Ruying's eyes.
The dark-scaled dragon was one of the most powerful existences in the Mortal Realm!
She did not expect to see it here!
Perhaps it was attracted by the scent of the heavenly herbs and fruits.
She should have been more careful!
Luo Ruying felt terribly guilty.
Due to her carelessness, her child was almost endangered.
If she had previous cultivation, she could slaughter the dark-scaled dragon with a single stroke of her sword. But she was now at the Human Immortal realm.
If she really fought the dark-scaled dragon, it might not be a definite loss.
But she was afraid that she would be unable to look after Luo Hongye.
What should I do? Should I just take her and run?
As Luo Ruying thought about what to do, Ning Yechen slowly walked up behind her.
When Luo Ruying saw Ning Yechen, a worried expression appeared on her face.
This was bad!
If it were just Luo Hongye, she was confident about escaping with her unscathed.
If Ning Yechen was also here, she might not be able to escape from the dark-scaled dragon!
Luo Ruying was in a dilemma.
