“That light can’t seal that realm gate, can it?” Lonemoon asked. Even the plane’s assistant had come, and he brought with him an entire team as well. Who knew what else he would be capable of?
“Mm.” Shen Ying nodded. She looked at the dishes on the table in front of her and a look flashed across her eyes. She set her chopsticks down and got to her feet. “We have to completely separate that small world from the rest of our plane. They cannot do this – only you can.”
“Me?” Lonemoon paused.
Chef walked out of the kitchen at that exact moment. He looked at the half-filled plates on the table and frowned.
“How should we go about it?”
“We can’t do it here,” Shen Ying Continued. “We have to go to the central control area. There, we can separate each of the small worlds from one another. The catch is that the both of you have to learn to take full control of your assistants’ authorities first.”
“Central control?” What did that mean?
Yi Qing paused, as if realizing something. “Master, you mean to say that we have to go back to the divine realm?”
She nodded her head.
“Then what are we waiting for?” Lonemoon turned around and opened a portal in mid-air. “We can’t afford to wait any longer. We have to go as soon as we can.” He just started to enter the portal when he realized that Shen Ying stood rooted to the ground. He paused and said, “Shen Ying, let’s go!”
“Are you deaf? I said, this thing must be settled by... the both of you.”
“What do you mean?” Lonemoon hesitated.
Shen Ying suddenly grinned at him. Her icy demeanor had completely disappeared. Instead, she cast an uncharacteristically warm look at the both of them. “All the best, Boyfriend and Father Niu!”
The moment she finished speaking, she collapsed without any warning.
“Master!”
“Shen Ying!”
Their expressions changed. Both of them reached out to catch the lady who had just collapsed. Both of their faces displayed pure panic.
——————
“What just happened?” Lonemoon did a closer inspection of the lady on the bed. He realized that this was just like the previous time – there was nothing wrong with Shen Ying’s body. Instead, she was in a coma without any other symptoms. “She was just fine before.”
“Master activated her powers by force in order to save us,” Yi Qing explained, fists clenched tight by his sides. Blood began to flow out of his palms, yet he did not seem to notice. “I thought that we had time...” That was why he returned to the rear hall to pack all the dishes when he found the time to do so. It was a pity that he was still too late.
Lonemoon recalled the dishes that Shen Ying had not managed to finish earlier, and his expression darkened. Shen Ying seemed to have noticed that no matter how much she ate, she would not be able to recover the amount of energy she consumed that second time. That was probably why she chose to enter into a coma instead.
Shit!
“What did she say before?” Lonemoon sucked in a deep breath and asked. Given Shen Ying’s personality, she would not enter a coma without giving proper explanations as to how exactly to deal with the invaders.
“Master said that if she suddenly becomes stuck, we should not worry.” Yi Qing’s fists tightened even more by his sides. In a low voice, he continued, “She also said we should not even try to wake her. She would come to soon enough.”
“What does soon enough mean?”
“... I don’t know either.”
Lonemoon fell silent and sucked in another deep breath before he finally managed to calm himself down. “Chef, the most important thing now is to figure out how to solve that mushroom problem. We have to go to the divine realm quickly.”
“But Master-”
“I know that you want to use the same method as before to get her to wake up,” Lonemoon interrupted him. “But this matter is serious. We cannot afford to do that now! We have to go to the small world and seal it up as soon as we can. You need to know that their target is Shen Ying. If we’re just a second too late, they might...”
Lonemoon did not need to carry on any further before Yi Qing understood his point. He turned back and glanced at Shen Ying, gritted his teeth and sucked in a deep breath. “I understand. Let’s go to the divine territory now!”
The moment he finished speaking, he conjured a seal and opened an entrance that led straight to the divine territory.
“Let’s go, Father Niu.”
Father Niu sighed and turned to go through the entrance together with Chef. He had just taken one step in when he felt something tug at his sleeve very lightly.
Lonemoon turned around instinctively and saw two eyes, as round as grapes. They looked like they carried the skies within them. The eyes, set on a small face, blinked with curiosity. The kid’s head tilted as her chubby hands clung on to Lonemoon’s sleeves.
Suddenly, Lonemoon felt as though someone had shot an arrow straight through his chest. Something inside him seemed to break down and roll into a ball.
This kid? Where did she come from?
The girl behind him seemed to realize something. She reached out both of her arms and broke into a grin. It was as if flowers were raining down from the sky.
“Father!”
Dong dong dong! Lonemoon felt multiple shots straight through his heart. There was a faint explosion inside him.
So, so, so... adorable!
“Master?” Yi Qing jumped. He wanted to step forward, but a black figure flew right past him.
A certain someone rushed over like a flash of lightning. The figure carried the little girl into his arms as a mysterious fatherly love overwhelmed him. He replied, “Ai, I am your father! I am your father! Kiss your father!” Nobody is to steal her from me. “Good girl...”
Yi Qing: “...”
What was going on?
Baby Ying was buried in Lonemoon’s beard. She uncomfortably pushed him away and turned to face Yi Qing, who was then in a daze. She looked at him helplessly and raised her arms toward him, calling out in a sweet voice.
“Mom!”
Yi Qing: “...”
Lonemoon, “...”
——————
Shen Ying had become younger once again. This time, even her bones had reduced in size. Yi Qing discovered Father Niu had gone crazy.
In the past, whenever he looked at Shen Ying, he would feel annoyed. It was almost as if he would die if he did not manage to get rid of her bad habits. However, he had become almost like a demon king now, who had just gained a precious daughter. Like a nanny, he sat down on the floor and tried to gain the little girl’s attention. He seemed to have no more time for official business. Instead, nobody could chase him away from her.
The way he spoke had also become a hundred times more animated.
“Little Ying, tell Daddy how old you are?”
The little girl on the bed stared blankly back at him and showed both of her palms to him. She began to count very seriously with both of her hands. A moment later, she reached out just five fingers. Slightly later, only three fingers were left on display. Shen Ying then turned to her left, then to her right. She reached out with both hands again, showing Lonemoon three fingers. “Three years old! Little Ying is three years old!”
Lonemoon’s chest tightened. It was like his heart was going to explode.
So... so cute!
( ̄『̄)
He finally understood why Shen Jing was so easily controlled by her little sister. With such an adorable younger sister, even Lonemoon would want to kill whichever bastard who tried to get close to her.
“Come, let Daddy hug you!” He could not stop himself from reaching out with both hands.
Just as he wanted to hug her, Shen Ying Disappeared before his eyes. Yi Qing carried the adorable little girl from the bed and glared at him. “Get lost!” Stay far away from my master, you perverted bastard!
Shen Ying, however, did not seem to realize the tension in the room. She reached out with both of her hands to hold on to the person who just carried her off the bed. Weakly, she called, “Mother!”
Yi Qing stiffened.
“Master...” How his heart hurt – he wanted to cry!
