Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress-Chapter 339 : You’re Not Very Convincing Like This...

Chapter 339 - You're Not Very Convincing Like This...

Late at night, inside a secret chamber of the Demon God Palace.

This secret chamber was generally used by Ning Yechen occasionally for meditation, cultivation, and secluded breakthroughs.

The four walls were made of the Demon Realm's most durable material, with several barriers laid within.

At this moment, Luo Ruying sat cross-legged with her eyes tightly closed, circulating the celestial spirit within her body.

A vast celestial spirit, like starlight and fluorescence, filled the entire secret chamber, as splendid as the Milky Way.

Before her floated the remaining ten-thousand-year-old Spirit-Calling Celestial Ganoderma used to heal Luo Yingxin. Under Luo Ruying's circulation of spiritual energy, the ganoderma was enveloped by celestial spirit, decomposing bit by bit, transforming into specks of celestial spirit that drifted around her like a long river.

Finally, it slowly flowed into her body and was absorbed bit by bit.

Throughout the process, Luo Ruying's figure was completely enveloped in a shimmering celestial light, the drifting celestial spirit falling like stardust.

The vast power of the celestial spirit grew stronger, and the secret chamber was like a balloon inflated to its limit; the celestial spirit almost broke through the chamber to rush into the Demon Realm's night sky!

Fortunately, the barriers on the four walls were stable. Only a few cracks appeared; they were not completely burst open by the celestial spirit.

As the ten-thousand-year-old Spirit-Calling Celestial Ganoderma was completely absorbed by Luo Ruying, the vast celestial spirit in the chamber also gradually subsided and dissipated, all of it withdrawn into her body.

"Huu~"

Luo Ruying let out a light breath and slowly opened her beautiful crimson eyes.

Relying on the remaining ganoderma, her recently-attained Transcendent Immortal realm had stabilized a bit more.

However, now, even this ten-thousand-year-old ganoderma was just a drop in the bucket for her.

After becoming a Transcendent Immortal, the vast spirit sea in her body had expanded countless times, becoming bottomless. No matter how much spiritual energy she poured into it, it seemed it could never be filled…

Even the spiritual energy contained in this ten-thousand-year-old ganoderma was just like pouring a cup of water into this vast ocean-like spirit sea, not even causing a ripple…

Luo Ruying couldn't help but shake her head in disappointment.

After deciding to go to the Beast Realm to investigate in a few days, she had immediately chosen to enter seclusion to refine and absorb the remaining ganoderma. However, even after absorbing the ganoderma, her cultivation didn't improve much.

Although she had now successfully stepped into the Transcendent Immortal realm, there was still a considerable gap compared to her former self from tens of thousands of years ago, one of the Nine Great Divine Venerables of the Divine Realm.

According to the original plan of her past life, the Luo Shen, her cultivation should have reached the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm when she entered the Immortal Realm Trials.

Then, with the help of the spirit-gathering formation left by her past self, plus the power of the soul fusion, she was supposed to reclaim her peak cultivation.

It was just that at that time, in order to repay the Dao Immortal Clan for their nurturing, she had dispersed her cultivation, leaving only the cultivation of the Immortal King realm.

To have been able to enter the Extreme Cold Land through the blizzard and luckily break through to the Transcendent Immortal realm was all thanks to Ning Yechen…

Otherwise, even if she had received the call in her mind during the trials, she would have had no way of crossing that raging blizzard.

Thinking of this, the images of Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye appeared in her mind, and a gentle smile couldn't help but form on her pretty face.

She had been in seclusion for several days. She wondered what he and the child were doing now…

Luo Ruying stood up from her seat, and after opening the secret chamber's door, she immediately transformed into a divine rainbow and flew towards their living quarters.

Arriving at the door to their chambers, Luo Ruying concealed her aura. Just as she was about to push the door open to surprise the father and daughter, she suddenly heard their voices from inside.

"Daddy, when is Mommy coming out~?"

"Don't worry, Ye Ye. Your mommy will probably be out soon."

Hearing Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye talking about her, and that her child seemed to be missing her, a gratified and happy look appeared on Luo Ruying's pretty face.

However, the next second, the smile on Luo Ruying's face froze.

"While your mommy isn't back yet, that's the only time Daddy can secretly do this with Ye Ye~"

"It wouldn't be good if this were discovered by your mommy~!"

"Mmm-hmm! Ye Ye knows~!"

"While Mommy isn't back yet~"

"Ye Ye won't tell Mommy~!"

Luo Ruying stood outside the door, listening to the conversation inside. She couldn't help but furrow her beautiful brows, her ear almost pressed against the door.

While she's away, what are they doing...!

Smelling the various scents of food and barbecue coming from inside, Luo Ruying's brows tightened, and she pushed the door open.

Inside the room, Ning Yechen was sitting on the bed, with Luo Hongye in his lap. Her tender little hands were grabbing all sorts of street food, her little mouth stuffed full…

In front of her was a large pile of snacks and food that had been bought.

The Jade Qilin was also perched on Luo Hongye's shoulder, eating along with her…

So the father and daughter were secretly eating snacks behind her back…

Seeing Luo Ruying suddenly enter, Ning Yechen, Luo Hongye, and the little Jade Qilin all stared at each other with wide eyes. The scene was a little awkward for a moment.

Luo Ruying's brows furrowed slightly, and she said in a firm, somewhat displeased voice:

"Ye Ye...!"

"Mmmph, Mommy...! Ye Ye wasn't sneak-eating!"

Luo Hongye hurriedly stuffed all the food in her hands into her mouth and said, shaking her head with her cheeks puffed out.

My precious daughter…

You're not very convincing like this…

Luo Ruying walked forward, gave a helpless glance at the innocent and cute Luo Hongye, and finally sighed, pulling her into an embrace.

"Ye Ye, if you want to eat, you just have to tell Mommy."

"It's not like Mommy won't let you eat…"

"Really, Mommy? Then can Ye Ye still eat~?"

Luo Hongye asked with delight, nestled in Luo Ruying's arms, her big, round eyes wide.

Luo Ruying's answer was a stern refusal.

"No."

"Mmmph..."

A film of mist instantly covered Luo Hongye's big eyes as she looked pitifully at Luo Ruying.

Luo Ruying's heart almost softened, and she was on the verge of giving in.

"Ye Ye, you've already eaten a lot today. Let's save the rest for next time, okay?"

"Eating too much of these things will cause a lot of impurities to build up in your body. It's not healthy!"

Luo Ruying gently coaxed and taught Luo Hongye in her arms.

"Mmm-hmm… Ye Ye understands."

Luo Hongye pouted. Although she was very reluctant to part with the remaining snacks in her heart, she still nodded obediently.

"Be a good girl, Ye Ye. Mommy will buy you other delicious things in the future~"

Luo Ruying took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the food scraps from around Luo Hongye's mouth as she spoke.

"Mmm-hmm!" Luo Hongye once again nodded obediently.

After wiping Luo Hongye's mouth clean, Luo Ruying's beautiful eyes turned to Ning Yechen, who was sitting on the bed, and she gave him an irritated glare.

"While I was away, is this how you take care of our child, Husband?"

"Don't be angry, my wife. The child's happiness is the most important thing~" Ning Yechen said, scratching his cheek, slightly embarrassed.

Luo Ruying also knew that Ning Yechen was just doting on Luo Hongye, so she sighed lightly, unable to refute him.

Ning Yechen revealed a smile and opened his arms towards Luo Ruying.

"My dear has been in seclusion for several days. I've missed you a little~"

"Hmph, I wonder who it was just now who said they were taking advantage of me being away...!"

Luo Ruying gave Ning Yechen a charmingly coquettish eye-roll, but in the end, she still leaned gently into his embrace, holding Luo Hongye…
