"The baby in Mommy's belly spoke, don't be afraid, he's just playing with you." I anxiously touched my stomach, finding it extremely cold as a trace of evil qi actually dissipated from it.
Yu Longting sealed Dumpling, but he still woke up.
Just as I was looking towards the sofa for Yu Longting, I discovered that he had disappeared, leaving the sofa empty.
My heart started to feel uneasy, cold sweat breaking out on my forehead, fearing that Dumpling might truly stray from the right path, "Dumpling, did you just say you wanted to eat Sister Yitian? That is not right, quickly apologize to Sister Yitian."
"What's wrong with that? I am a snake, a demon, and demons are supposed to eat humans, it's only natural." Dumpling's voice came out, chillingly unfamiliar to me.
I trembled slightly at the tip of my finger, continuously rubbing my belly to try to warm him with my own body heat, "Dumpling, listen to Mommy, only bad snakes eat people, say sorry to Sister Yitian."
"Why should I say sorry? I did nothing wrong!!" Dumpling said angrily, but suddenly he started to struggle in pain, his small voice growing weak, "Mommy, I… I didn't mean to… be a bad kid and make Mommy angry; Dumpling feels so awful, it's like being set on fire... Sister Yitian, sorry, Dumpling… said some really bad things just now."
"It's the Demonic Qi disturbing Dumpling, but don't worry, Mommy is here, Sister Yitian is here too, we will stay with you." I took Yitian's hand and gently placed it on my belly.
Yitian might not know what was happening, but she showed a warm and sweet smile, "Can the little baby talk while still in the belly? It's okay, Sister isn't mad at you."
"Sister, I'm ticklish, could you please not touch me?" The Demonic Qi on Little Dumpling completely dissipated at this moment, as if purified by Yitian's gentle touch.
I breathed a sigh of relief and inwardly lamented Yu Longting's unreliability!!
It was one thing to ignore that Dumpling had been infected by the Demonic Qi, but to also not know where he ran off to in the middle of the night. Official source is nοvelfire.net
Xiao Yitian withdrew her hand, covering her lips, "Little brother, did I touch you? Ticklish? Is that why you feel itchy?"
Little Dumpling completely embarrassed, curled up into a ball.
Even his little head was buried against his chest, unable to utter a single word.
Li Yitian looked at me, "Mommy, why isn't brother talking anymore?"
I hugged Xiao Yitian's small head and chuckled, "He's shy."
"Oh." Yitian, "Brother is really shy~"
Suddenly, a strange cold air crept in through the crack of the window.
I hugged Xiao Yitian tightly and whispered a warning, "It seems like bad people are watching us, Yitian, pretend to sleep from now on, and don't open your eyes until Mommy says so."
"Okay." Xiao Yitian gave me a big-eyed glance, curled up obediently in my arms, and closed her eyes.
Her eyelashes were exceptionally long, and even pretending to be asleep, they continued to flutter gently, like a pair of delicate butterflies.
I too closed my eyes, my nerves taut to breaking point, and the Spiritual Eye opened on its own, allowing me to see everything in the room even with my eyes closed.
A white, long, shadowy figure slithered in through the narrow window gap, climbing up the bed from the foot of it.
As it crawled, its scales rubbed and contracted, making a rustling noise.
I plucked a hair from Xiao Yitian's head, she flinched in discomfort but did not open her eyes to expose herself, pretending to sleep obediently.
I was ready to use the Patchwork Man to create a stuntman as a decoy, tricking this sneaky intruder snake and then grabbing Xiao Yitian to jump off the bed and flee through the door.
Suddenly, there was a hissing scream near my ear, and my face was splattered with a liquid carrying the scent of blood.
I touched my face and found it to be a drop of icy Snake Blood.
The very next second, I urgently got up with Yitian in my arms.
Upon looking at the bed, there was a large, colorful viper, but its body was already severed into two pieces, charred black at the point of separation, with signs of burning.
"Who are you people? Why do you have Snake Lord's charms?" The bisected White Snake was not completely dead and spoke human language from its snake mouth, questioning fiercely and ominously.
