Chapter 29

The Un-Wakable Ning Yechen

Late at night, in the wooden house within the Demon Realm Forest

After fainting from overexerting her spiritual energy, Luo Ruying finally regained consciousness.

The first thing she saw upon opening her eyes was Luo Hongye, curled up and nestled in her arms.

Gazing at Luo Hongye’s peaceful sleeping face, Luo Ruying felt a sense of relief. A loving smile graced her lips as she gently caressed her daughter’s cheek.

Then, as she was about to look for Ning Yechen, she suddenly realized that a pair of arms were tightly wrapped around her waist…!

Luo Ruying’s heart skipped a beat, and a look of panic flashed across her face. She turned around and saw that Ning Yechen was sleeping soundly, holding her close.

It wasn’t Luo Hongye sleeping between them now, but her.

And she was lying on her side, her body pressed against Ning Yechen’s.

She could clearly feel the warmth of his body against her back and his warm breath brushing past her ear as he slept!

This won’t do!

They are too close!

Luo Ruying blushed and tried to gently pry Ning Yechen’s hands from her waist. Unfortunately, his grip was too tight; she couldn’t break free!

Why was this guy holding her so tightly in his sleep?!

Luo Ruying turned her head and glared at Ning Yechen, then tried to wriggle out of his embrace.

However, because Luo Hongye was lying in her arms, Luo Ruying was afraid of waking her, so she didn’t dare move too much.

This meant she couldn’t escape from Ning Yechen’s embrace.

Instead, her body kept rubbing against his, and she couldn’t help but feel a warmth spreading through her…

And just then, Ning Yechen’s leg draped over her, bringing their bodies even closer…!

“Ah…”

In the darkness, the hand on her waist suddenly gently squeezed her. Luo Ruying instantly blushed crimson, her expression filled with panic. She almost cried out.

Fortunately, she managed to cover her mouth in time, preventing any embarrassing moans from escaping…

Her child was still sleeping in her arms; she couldn’t make any strange noises!

This guy is really…!

His sleeping posture is truly terrible!

And his hands aren’t honest either!

Luo Ruying was both embarrassed and angry, but she couldn’t forcefully break free from Ning Yechen’s embrace.

Helpless, Luo Ruying could only blush and try to wake him up in a soft voice:

“Ye, Yechen…?”

“Yechen, you, you wake up…”

Luo Ruying called out a few times, but there was no response.

This guy was sleeping like a log…

She couldn’t wake him up at all!

After several attempts, Luo Ruying resigned herself to her fate and let Ning Yechen continue to hold her as they slept…

She will let him hold her…

As long as he doesn’t make any more strange moves…

And so, with her hands resting on Ning Yechen’s hands on her waist, Luo Ruying nestled in his embrace and fell asleep…

The ‘sleeping’ Ning Yechen’s lips curled into a slight smile.

…

At dawn, the morning sun shone through the gaps in the window and into the room.

“Wife, wife…”

A gentle voice called out intimately beside Luo Ruying’s ear.

She slowly opened her sleepy eyes to find a handsome face close to hers. Startled, she instinctively leaned back.

Remembering Ning Yechen’s restless movements in his sleep last night, Luo Ruying couldn’t help but pout, her cheeks slightly flushed.

This guy made her lose sleep last night! (Though she actually slept quite soundly.)

Ning Yechen smiled gently, sitting on the edge of the bed and reaching out to caress Luo Ruying’s forehead. He asked softly:

“Wife, are you still in pain?”

“I’m fine now…”

Ning Yechen’s soft and caring voice warmed Luo Ruying’s heart. She swallowed the words of complaint she had been about to utter.

Forget it.

He was asleep; it wasn’t his fault.

“Wife, I’ve made you some medicine.”

Ning Yechen brought over a bowl of medicinal soup to nourish her body and, as usual, scooped a spoonful and brought it to her lips.

This time, Luo Ruying didn’t insist on feeding herself. Instead, she obediently opened her mouth and took the spoon.

She needed to recover quickly to prepare for any potential dangers.

Ning Yechen diligently fed her the medicine, spoonful by spoonful.

Although he could easily heal all of Luo Ruying’s injuries, he chose not to.

On the one hand, it might arouse Luo Ruying’s suspicion. Making medicinal porridge was one thing, but if he took out an elixir or something similar, his identity would be exposed.

On the other hand, seeing Luo Ruying’s vulnerable and delicate side due to her weakness was quite endearing…

He could also take this opportunity to care for her…

After taking a few sips of the medicine, Luo Ruying pondered for a moment and then said to Ning Yechen:

“Yechen, let’s pack our things and leave this place later.”

This wasn’t a sudden decision but a plan she had carefully considered.

The fact that Gui Fu and the others had found them here meant their location might have been exposed.

Soon, they might send even more powerful enemies!

With her current cultivation, she couldn’t even stop Gui Fu and the others, let alone stronger opponents.

The safest course of action was to leave before more enemies arrived.

Ning Yechen understood Luo Ruying’s intentions and concerns. Although her worries were unnecessary, he still nodded in agreement.

He had chosen to live in seclusion here to enjoy a peaceful and carefree life.

Now that he had a wife and child, wherever they went, he would naturally follow.

After the two of them settled on their plan, they started packing their belongings.

Luo Ruying still had a spare spirit ring. Although it was empty, it was perfect for storing their belongings.

With a wave of her hand, most of the things in the room were stored within the spirit ring.

“Wow, wife, you’re so amazing~” Ning Yechen clapped his hands and praised her.

“Just leave anything you need to pack to me,” Luo Ruying said with a smile.

It was just a simple matter of using a spirit ring, but for some reason, she felt a little happy after being praised by Ning Yechen.

When Luo Hongye woke up, she also happily helped pack things around the house with her little steps.

“Wife, I’ll go pack things outside,” Ning Yechen said.

“Okay.”

Ning Yechen looked at Luo Ruying and their daughter with a smile, then casually made an excuse and left the house. He secretly sent a message to the Chaos Bull Demon and the other two.

“I need to leave this place for a while.”

“I’ll give you two choices.”

“One is to stay here and help me look after everything. The other is to leave with me. Choose for yourselves.”

Ning Yechen said to the three Demon Kings.

He could have them stay here to guard the house and the garden, or he could take them along, disguised, and have them secretly protect Luo Ruying and Luo Hongye.

The Chaos Bull Demon and the other two exchanged glances. They had already made up their minds!

“Master! Please let us follow you!”

“We are willing to serve you with our lives!”

If this were before, they would definitely choose to stay in the Demon Realm Forest and continue being Demon Kings.

But after he helped them break through and gifted them heavenly weapons, they had changed their minds!

Staying by the Master’s side was dangerous and frightening, but it was also a rare opportunity!
