Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 950: Chapter 10: Little Di Shen’s First Awakening

Hong Mingyue picked up Little Di Shen, and when she saw the baby in the swaddling clothes, she was stunned.

Is this Ye Lingyue’s brother?

The little one’s face was round, with perfect features, his body soft and small, carrying a faint milky fragrance.

What a beautiful child.

Even Hong Mingyue, while holding the child, couldn’t help but feel a bit of softness in her heart.

Hong Mingyue stared at the sleeping Little Di Shen, her eyes showing a complex expression. Ever since she had been cultivating the Joyful Union Skill, she had killed many people, and her fingers could be said to be covered in blood, but it was her first time contemplating harming such a small life.

For some reason, her hand hesitated and slightly trembled instead of pressing down.

Perhaps sensing some movement, Little Di Shen suddenly opened his eyes.

Seeing Little Di Shen’s slightly upturned eyes, looking directly at her, Hong Mingyue was startled.

”Yiya ya (Where did wife go?)”

Little Di Shen was a very smart child.

Although he couldn’t speak yet, he could already understand most of what others were saying.

He had remembered the term ”wife” from earlier when he heard Princess Qingfeng and the Feng Lan couple teasing Ye Lingyue.

Though he didn’t understand the exact meaning of ”wife,” subconsciously, Little Di Shen really liked the word.

Little Di Shen realized that the person holding him was not Ye Lingyue, and his eyes, like those of a sprite, showed a hint of dissatisfaction.

Why had ”wife” secretly slipped away again?

And left him with this strange woman who seemed to have come out of nowhere. This woman had a very unpleasant smell, probably from perfume.

Little Di Shen was not happy. His little nose twitched, and his hand moved impatiently, as if swatting flies.

”Yiya ya (Go away, smelly woman)” he wanted to escape from Hong Mingyue’s hands.

Seeing the obvious disgust in the little one’s eyes, Hong Mingyue was surprised at first.

She was startled when she heard the little one suddenly make a sound.

She had sneaked into the temporary tent when Ye Lingyue and the others weren’t paying attention.

If the child’s cries alerted the people outside, the consequences would be unthinkable.

The thought of her own parents, her current situation, hardened her heart, and she covered Little Di Shen’s mouth with her hand.

”Die, little ghost, rest assured, soon I will send your wretched sister down to accompany you.”

Hong Mingyue exerted all her strength, trying to suffocate the little one, completely unaware of the change happening behind her.

When she realized something was wrong, a rushing sound came from behind her; a streak of black light shot forward.

”Ah.”

Hong Mingyue felt a pain above her right cheek and instinctively used her hand to block, but the Nine Dragon Roar had already grazed her with its swift motion.

A piece of flesh was cut from the corner of Hong Mingyue’s eye.

She hurriedly covered her wound with her hand, and the Little Di Shen in her hand was thrown harshly to the ground.

Blood flowed like a stream from between the fingers of Hong Mingyue.

If the sword had been just slightly off, it would have injured Hong Mingyue’s right eye.

”What a wretched sword.”

Hong Mingyue cried out in pain, staring at the Nine Dragon Roar as if she’d seen a ghost.

After the sword had struck, it hovered silently in the air. Hong Mingyue glanced at the swaddling clothes on the ground.

Little Di Shen’s face was as wilted as a frosted eggplant, his body motionless, seemingly without breath.

Thrown down so forcefully, and being just a baby, he was undoubtedly dead.

In a hurry to check her own wound, Hong Mingyue dared not stay and fled the scene.

Not long after Hong Mingyue escaped, Ye Lingyue and Luo Yi entered.

Seeing the Nine Dragon Roar hovering in the air and Little Di Shen lying on the ground with bloodstains scattered about.

Ye Lingyue’s heart sank to the bottom.

”Little Di Shen.”

She rushed forward, frantically picking up Little Di Shen, her body trembling.

As Ye Lingyue panicked about what to do, the little one coughed a few times.

His face, initially blue and purple, slowly regained its rosy color.

When he opened his sprite-like big eyes and saw Ye Lingyue, he was overjoyed.

”Yiya ya (Wife, wasn’t I clever, pretending to be dead to fool that bad woman)”

But his glee was short-lived when he felt something warm and wet on his face.

Startled, he saw Ye Lingyue’s delicate face, smaller than her palm, covered in tears like raindrops on pear blossoms.

Ye Lingyue choked with sobs.

”You scared me to death. I’ve already lost you once. If something were to happen again this time, how would I save you?”

With that, she hugged Little Di Shen tightly against her chest, as if he might disappear into thin air.

Little Di Shen felt stifled.

He wanted to tell his wife he was fine, that he was clever enough to use that black sword to attack the woman.

He could protect himself and protect his wife in the future.

But what came out of his mouth was unintelligible, leaving Ye Lingyue unable to grasp his meaning.

In the end, the little one could only clench his small fist determinedly, vowing to himself that next time he met that bad woman, he would teach her a lesson for making his wife cry.

Beside them, Luo Yi listened dumbfounded, sensing something off about Ye Lingyue’s words.

Were they really siblings? It sounded more like a conversation between lovers...

Luo Yi glanced at Ye Lingyue and Little Di Shen, shaking her head, startled by her wild speculation.

How could that be possible? Little Di Shen was so small.

After calming down, Ye Lingyue controlled her emotions.

After verifying that Little Di Shen was alright, she started inspecting the temporary tent.

”Someone entered the tent and tried to kill Little Di Shen.” Ye Lingyue said as she looked at the pool of blood and a small piece of flesh that seemed to belong to the perpetrator, feeling incredibly remorseful for her negligence.

”How could this be? Do you or Little Di Shen have enemies?” Luo Yi couldn’t fathom who would target such an adorable Little Di Shen.

”We have quite a few enemies.” Ye Lingyue said coldly, her face hardened, a stark contrast to her earlier amiable demeanor.”

Being in the Lonely Moon Sea, she had thought she and Little Di Shen would be safe.

She resolved not to leave Little Di Shen alone again in the future.
