Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

This man was certainly the elder who had created the heavenly herb garden!

As for the part about them doing something wrong, he had to be referring to the heavenly herb garden!

Old Ghost’s poisonous haze and Lu Jian’s sword energy nearly damaged the heavenly herb garden, so this elder suddenly appeared to kill them out of anger! Luo Ruying speculated.

Ning Yechen did not know what Luo Ruying was thinking. Seeing her take a step back, he assumed he had just frightened her and said gently, “The poison in your body has been neutralized. As for your injuries, you only need a few days to recover.”

“Thank you, Elder,” Luo Ruying said gratefully.

This elder had attacked them ruthlessly, but he was unexpectedly easygoing.

Since the elder was here, Luo Ruying hesitated briefly and took the initiative to say, “Elder, I have something to tell you.”

“Huh? What is it?” Ning Yechen asked curiously.

Luo Ruying said awkwardly, “My husband and I inadvertently discovered your garden and plucked many heavenly herbs from it, including the seven-colored glass flower. I want to compensate you with some heavenly treasures! If you want to blame someone, let it be me. Please don’t blame my husband. He’s just a mortal and didn’t mean to offend you.”

After saying this, Luo Ruying felt worried. She secretly glanced at the black-robed elder, watching his actions.

She was very worried. After he found out they had randomly taken heavenly herbs and the seven-colored glass flower, he might kill them in a fit of anger!

After all, the heavenly herb garden was untouchable to the elder.

To be honest, even if she took out the remaining heavenly treasures she had, they were not enough to make up for the seven-colored glass flower!

As Luo Ruying waited nervously, Ning Yechen let out a chuckle and waved his hand casually. “It’s okay. If you like them, feel free to pluck them. As for your so-called heavenly treasures, they are no use to me, so save them for yourself.”

Luo Ruying seemed to think that he was the elder who had created this heavenly herb garden.

In that case, it would save him the trouble of making up other excuses.

Moreover, she was still concerned about him. She defended him and wanted to shoulder the responsibility alone, making him feel touched.

When Luo Ruying heard that she could take whatever she wanted without giving anything in return, she was stunned.

The heavenly plants and herbs in the garden were priceless, but he allowed her to take whatever she wanted!

Even though she had plucked the seven-colored glass flower, it did not matter to him, and he was not angry in any way.

The man did not seem surprised in the slightest. It seemed as though he already knew that she had plucked the seven-colored glass flower.

This elder seems pretty nice! Luo Ruying bowed and thanked the man once more. “Elder, do you mind sharing your name? I would like to visit you and thank you properly one day!”

However, when she looked up, the man was nowhere to be seen. Just like the way he came, he left without any sign.

Perhaps he was a capable expert living in recluse who did not want people to know about him.

Luo Ruying did not take it to heart. After composing herself, she felt relieved that she was still alive.

Even though she had been prepared to die, when the sword energy from Lu Jian nearly struck her, she still felt reluctant to die.

Images of that man and their daughter kept surfacing in her mind.

Sure enough, she did not want to leave them like this.

Right! She had to find them as soon as possible!

Otherwise, they would be in danger if they encountered any monster beast in the forest.

As Luo Ruying thought about the escaping Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye, her heart constricted, and she quickly ran into the forest.

Meanwhile…

After leaving Luo Ruying, Ning Yechen swiftly appeared outside a cave and transmitted his voice inside. “Come out!”

The next second, a commotion sounded from the cave before three figures shot out of the cave. One of them even knelt halfway and slid over to Ning Yechen.

“S-Sir, what brings you here?” Sky-Swallowing Python stammered, her head trickling with cold sweat.

Not long had passed, but Ning Yechen asked to see them again. It was simply horrifying!

They had been playing mahjong happily. But the moment they heard the man's voice, they were scared silly.

Looking at Ning Yechen’s frosty expression, everyone stayed silent out of fear.

They wondered which idiots offended the man this time.

Ning Yechen looked at them and said mildly, “What were you doing earlier?”

“Sir, w-we were playing mahjong,” Chaos Demonic Bull replied weakly.

They were simply playing mahjong. It made no sense for the man to be annoyed by this.

Ning Yechen frowned slightly. “Playing mahjong? Someone entered the Monster Domain Forest and disturbed my peace, but you were playing mahjong. Do you really not know the reason you’re still here?”

These words made everyone shudder in fear. They anxiously kowtowed and explained.

“Sir, you’ve misunderstood!”

“W-we thought they were with you!”

Chaos Demonic Bull and the others wanted to cry aggrievedly.

Dark-Scaled Dragon had been killed because he had touched the wrong person.

They had learned a lesson from this. This time, they had obediently stayed in the cave and let them pass, but the man came after them for it.

Seeing their aggrieved faces, Ning Yechen did not hold them accountable. Instead, he pointed in the direction that Su Sheng had escaped and said in a glacial tone, “Someone ran in that direction. You should know what to do now, right?”

“Yes! We will kill the intruder now. Since he disturbed your peace, he deserves to die a hundred times!” Chaos Demonic Bull patted his chest solemnly.

The others nodded in agreement.

Ning Yechen glanced at them and said calmly, “I want him alive. If he dies, you don’t have to come back alive either. Got it?”

“Yes, Sir.” Everyone nodded in unison.

“Then why are you still kneeling here? If you let him escape, you can forget about coming back. You can just wait for me to look for you!” Ning Yechen frowned while looking coldly at the three figures kneeling obediently in front of him.

If he was not in a hurry to return to his wife and daughter, he would not have left the intruder to them.

Chaos Demonic Bull and the others snapped out of their daze and hurriedly stood up.

But because they were too terrified, their legs were a little limp, so they stumbled and nearly fell when getting up.

Seeing this, Ning Yechen frowned. Will it be okay to leave the task to them? Perhaps I should just send my advocate.

Under Ning Yechen's questioning gaze, Chaos Demonic Bull and the others quickly transformed into lights and disappeared.

This was a matter of life and death for them, so they did their utmost to catch up to Su Sheng.

Ning Yechen watched them leave before turning around and going to the other side of the forest.

He had to return to his dear wife and daughter as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if Luo Ruying detected anything amiss, he would be in deep trouble.
