Only a "plop" was heard, Tian Ning fell from Mid-air again.
But this time, she felt no pain at all. It seemed something was underneath her, bearing the impact?
Before Tian Ning could see what was under her, she heard a familiar voice beside her: "Tian Ning… how are you here?"
Tian Ning immediately recognized it. Wasn't this her supplier?
"Long Han! What a coincidence!"
Tian Ning stood up. Seeing the handsome Man in front of her, she immediately showed a bright smile.
It was clear she was incredibly happy to see him!
Just when her Materials ran out, her supplier appeared!
Long Han found her silly appearance somewhat funny. Before he could speak, a milky, childish voice spoiled: "Mother~ Hungry! Food!"
Beside Tian Ning's feet, a Baby of about three years old was grabbing her Robe.
Tian Ning: "?"
Long Han was shocked. After a while, this Girl became a Mother?
Giving birth doesn't happen that fast. She became a stepmother, getting a Child for free?
Tian Ning naturally knew this was the Little Guy hatched from the Dragon Egg, but usually, newly hatched young ones wouldn't transform. Even if they successfully transformed, some features of their original form would remain.
This little guy not only lacked Dragon Horns on his forehead, but his aura was more like an ordinary Mortal without Spiritual Energy. No wonder Long Han didn't recognize him as his kin.
Speaking of which, this little guy, having just hatched, didn't have any Magical Artifacts to conceal his Cultivation Base. He could achieve this on his own. Truly worthy of the Dragon Clan's royal bloodline, his innate strength was extraordinary.
"You… how did you get here? This Child…" Long Han looked at the fair-skinned Child. The light blue Clothes he wore were clearly not from an ordinary family. He had no idea what was going on, Tian Ning suddenly fell from the sky.
"I encountered danger in the Secret Realm and was swept into a Spatial Rift. I ended up here." Tian Ning casually said, "Let me introduce you, this is my adopted Son!"
Long Han: "..."
Does she think he's blind?
When the Child called her Mother, there was surprise in her eyes as well.
Moreover, if it were truly an adopted Son, why did she use the Child as a cushion when she fell?
Even more bizarre, the Child was unharmed…
However, Long Han didn't bother to ponder the Child's origins. He looked at Tian Ning, his tone complex: "Being sent here by a Spatial Rift isn't necessarily a good thing."
Tian Ning questioned, "How so?"
Seeing Long Han's serious expression, it didn't seem like he was lying. Was she sent to another place by the Demon Sword again?
"This is the Border of the Beast Taming Sect's jurisdiction." Long Han paused, seeing Tian Ning still clueless, he continued:
"A month ago, a Ninth-Grade Spirit Plant—the Ice Linzhi—appeared, attracting countless Cultivators… But the fragrance it emitted when it matured attracted countless Spirit Beasts, causing a Beast Tide, affecting the area for miles. This Cave is a place we managed to find. Fellow Cultivators from the Fu Immortal Sect are temporarily using Concealment Talismans to block the Spirit Beasts from discovering our location. But the Talismans won't last long. We are now looking for other Exits…"
Long Han told Tian Ning everything.
Because of previous incidents, his attitude toward Tian Ning had improved. Moreover, not only could he not defeat Tian Ning, but she also held his weakness.
Tian Ning also noticed several Cultivators behind him wearing the Disciples' robes of different Sects, but none from the Wanjian Sect.
Long Han: "The Cultivators from the Wanjian Sect are the main fighting force, staying behind to protect the Fu Immortal Sect's Cultivators."
"Have you found a way out?" Tian Ning rubbed the Child's chubby face, taking out a handful of top-grade Abstinence Pills from her Cloth Bag.
"No…" The little guy shook his head, looking disdainful.
Long Han: "..."
"No, we were planning to return the same way when you suddenly appeared."
Since the little guy didn't want the pills, Tian Ning put them away and took out some Revival Pills, restoring her depleted Spiritual Energy.
"Fellow Cultivator, would you like to go back with us? More people, more strength. Let's discuss how to get out together." A Fu Immortal Sect Disciple, seeing her familiarity with Long Han, stepped forward.
Tian Ning naturally agreed. She wasn't very clear about the situation, but her Divine Sense could feel many Spirit Beasts restless outside. A Beast Tide had indeed occurred.
Along the way, Tian Ning held the little guy's hand and asked, "What's your name?"
Long Han: "..."
Heh, this Stinky Girl doesn't even draft her lies anymore.
"Mother, my name is Long Yunqi!" The little guy rubbed against Tian Ning, wanting to be close. He thought his Mother smelled good, even when he was still an Egg!
"Calling me Mother changes the generation. Call me Sister," Tian Ning corrected.
"Speaking of which, Yunqi, besides Abstinence Pills, what do you want to eat?" Tian Ning always spoiled her contracted Divine Beasts, like Jiujiu and Xiaobai.
Long Yunqi listed a long string of rare Spirit Plants, making Long Han and the others twitch their mouths.
What kind of money-eating monster is this Child?
They were all good things, even the rank was no lower than five.
Upon hearing the Child's list, Tian Ning recalled what she had in her Dimensional Pouch. After a while, she took out a fifth-grade Purple Jade Bamboo and handed it over: "Eat!"
"..."
She's really generous, treating a fifth-grade Spirit Plant like Snacks for a Child.
And she just gave the Purple Jade Bamboo to the Child without worrying if he could absorb the Spiritual Energy?
Long Han wanted to complain but didn't. Anyway, he wouldn't care about a brat's life or death.
Moreover, encountering a Beast Tide while collecting the Ice Linzhi, whether they could leave safely was unknown. They should worry about whether they could find another Exit. Once the remaining Concealment Talismans couldn't hold until the Beast Tide ended, the consequences would be unimaginable…
Midway, after feeding Long Yunqi, Tian Ning mysteriously approached Long Han, giving him two Recording Stones and a new Porcelain Bottle:
"Good brother, I used up the last batch of Materials. Send some more!"
She knew Men cared about their image, so she didn't say it directly earlier. Now, she even lowered her voice.
Long Han: "..."
He truly appreciated her thoughtfulness!
That's a whole Porcelain Bottle! So much! How does she even use it? So fast!
Long Han gritted his teeth: "Tian Ning, don't push it!"
Tian Ning blinked and gave him two more Recording Stones.
Long Han: "..."
Is this about the number of Recording Stones?
Seeing his hesitation, Tian Ning gave him two more.
She had plenty of Recording Stones anyway. She recorded a whole Sack back then!
However, Tian Ning had her principles: "Six is enough. I advise you to stop, don't play the game of playing hard to get!"
Long Han: "..."
Is that how you play hard to get?
