Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Ch. 230


Chapter 230 - Just Waiting for Your Command!

"Mmm…"

Ning Yechen nodded and informed Yue Qingyou of Luo Ruying’s condition.

Since their second encounter in the small wooden cabin in the mountain forest, Luo Ruying had already lost her immortal bone and heart, and had been relying on a false heart to sustain her life.

If there had been no impact, it could have sustained her life for ten years, but because her body was injured multiple times and she forcefully circulated her spiritual energy on several occasions, it caused the false heart to crack.

"Madam, forgive my impertinence."

Hearing this, Yue Qingyou immediately sat on the edge of the couch, placed her hand on Luo Ruying’s chest, and her expression gradually became grave.

Although the false heart had stabilized for now and her life was not in immediate danger, her heart had already cracked and could not afford even the slightest mishap.

At this moment, the false heart inside Luo Ruying’s body was like a slightly cracked glass sphere. If it were to suffer any further impact, it would shatter completely!

Yue Qingyou was extremely self-reproachful.

She had actually failed to notice that Luo Ruying had a false heart and had lost her immortal bone!

Dereliction of duty!

This is simply too great a dereliction of duty!

"Demon Lord, you should have told me about this kind of thing sooner!"

Yue Qingyou turned her head irritably and glared at Ning Yechen with furrowed brows.

If she had known that Luo Ruying had a false heart, she would have absolutely arranged for even stricter protection and would not have allowed the slightest mishap.

Ning Yechen was rendered speechless by Yue Qingyou’s glare.

At this moment, he was also very self-reproachful in his heart.

If it hadn't been for the need to hide his identity back then, he wouldn't have let Luo Ruying be placed in danger and take that palm strike to the chest from the Ghost Puppet.

"Qingyou, don't blame my husband."

"It happened suddenly, and I also only just noticed the condition of my false heart."

"But I'm alright now, you don't need to worry."

Luo Ruying, seeing Ning Yechen being scolded like a child by Yue Qingyou with no way to retort, couldn't help but find it amusing and took the initiative to explain on his behalf.

Who would have thought that Yue Qingyou would turn her head, glare at her, and begin to scold her with the same blaming tone:

"Madam, you too!"

"As Demon Lord's… personal maid, it is my dereliction of duty for not noticing the abnormality in your body."

"But I also hope that you would be able to proactively inform me of any condition your body is in."

"You are now the Demon Lord's wife, the Little Princess's mother, the great First Madam of the Demon Realm!"

"Your life is not just your own!"

"Knowing that your body was unwell, you still dared to forcefully circulate your spiritual energy!"

"Don't you know what a risky behavior this is?!"

"Also, a cracked false heart is a life-threatening matter. How can you so easily say things like you're fine!"

"Please be more mindful!"

Luo Ruying: "…"

Ning Yechen: "…”

Kui: "…"

Everyone present was intimidated by Yue Qingyou’s successive scoldings; no one dared to speak…

Kui, especially, kept her head down, not daring to make a sound.

The Lord Left Guardian was angry right now; it was best not to say anything unnecessary…

In the entire Demon Realm, only Lord Left Guardian would dare to scold both Demon Lord and Madam at the same time like this…

Luo Ruying was rendered speechless by Yue Qingyou’s motherly, lecture-style scolding. She could only blink her eyes, nod, and obediently reply:

"Okay…"

At this moment, she actually experienced the long-lost feeling of being nagged and scolded by her mother…

When Qingyou gets angry, she's so scary.

Ning Yechen deeply sympathized with this feeling.

Ever since he had known Yue Qingyou, he had heard no small amount of her nagging and scolding…

"Madam, since your body is unwell right now, it is inconvenient for me to say more."

"I must ask you not to act so rashly again next time!"

After saying so much, Yue Qingyou was still not reassured and said, leaning close to Luo Ruying’s face and gazing at her.

Luo Ruying felt the pressure of a daughter-in-law facing her mother-in-law and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay…"

After receiving Luo Ruying’s assurance, Yue Qingyou sat back in her original position and said calmly:

"Kui."

"Present…!"

Hearing Yue Qingyou call her, Kui immediately stepped forward and responded.

At this moment, she had appeared in the room in the form of a maid.

"Help me diagnose the Madam."

"Can the false heart be repaired, and is there any danger?"

Yue Qingyou said, standing up to make way for her.

Kui was an expert at making puppets; remolding an immortal body was no problem for her, let alone simply checking the condition of a false heart.

This was also the reason why Ning Yechen had specifically instructed for Kui to be called over.

In this aspect, she was more skilled than both him and Yue Qingyou.

"Madam, forgive my intrusion."

Kui sat on the edge of the couch, gently placed her hand on Luo Ruying’s chest, and closed her eyes, sensing the condition inside her body.

After a moment, Kui retracted her hand and said under the nervous gazes of Ning Yechen and Yue Qingyou:

"Demon Lord, Lord Left Guardian, the Madam's condition is not optimistic!"

Hearing this, the eyes of both Ning Yechen and Yue Qingyou instantly hardened.

"What's the situation…?"

"Madam's false heart is damaged and her body is fragile. She cannot withstand any more risks, nor can she circulate the spiritual energy in her body at will anymore."

"The inside of the false heart also has traces of cracking. I'm afraid it won't be able to hold out for much longer."

Kui continued to reply, her expression grave.

Hearing this, Luo Ruying’s expression showed no fear or worry as she asked with great composure:

"In that case, how much longer can I last…?"

"Three months at most, one month at the least!"

Kui replied with a serious and earnest expression.

"One month…"

Luo Ruying murmured softly, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but look towards Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye, who was in her arms, gazing at her with worried eyes.

Kui hesitated for a moment, then took the initiative to speak again:

"Madam…"

"You need not worry. As long as you are willing, I can forge a new immortal body for you…!"

"Although one month is a very tight schedule, I can do it!"

Hearing this, Luo Ruying hesitated in her heart.

Remolding her immortal body would certainly be good. She wouldn't have to rely on the false heart to sustain her life, and she could even make a breakthrough in her cultivation.

Perhaps she could even return to the Immortal Emperor cultivation realm with a new immortal body.

But in that case, it would mean she would have to give up the body she was born with…

Would that still be her…

And once she changed to a new body, she would lose her Luoshen family bloodline.

But she would be able to have a future where she could accompany her child as she grew up, and accompany him by his side…

Loro Ruying pondered for a moment and finally made up her mind. Just as she was about to ask Kui for the favor, Ning Yechen reached out his hand and gently covered her red lips…

"There's no need for that!"

"In just one day, I will take back everything you lost, with interest!"

Ning Yechen gazed intently at Luo Ruying, a faint smile on his face, his expression confident and arrogant.

"Husband…"

"Take it back, you mean…?"

Luo Ruying suddenly felt a faint, worrying premonition in her heart.

He couldn't be planning to force his way into the Heavenly Realm, could he…!

Ning Yechen gave a roguishly charming smile and looked towards Yue Qingyou, asking:

"Qingyou, how are the preparations on your end?"

Yue Qingyou also gave a cold, serene smile, placed a hand on her chest, and bowed slightly.

"Demon Lord, everything is ready."

"Just waiting for your command!”
