The Demon King is back, leading adorable kids on an adventure around the world!

Xiao Xiao sat on the grass, her fingers lightly touching the blades.

Emerald green light flowed from her fingertips, and vegetation grew wildly between them.

It turned into a small wreath, with white flowers woven into a ring, each one glistening like morning dew.

She made several, wore one herself, stood up and walked over to Niannian to put it on her.

Niannian tilted her head back and touched it for a long time before smiling happily.

She braided another one for Qiqi, and Qiqi wore it on her head, her little face flushed.

She also braided a white one for Luo Qianqian, and Luo Qianqian bent down to let her wear it on her hair bun, slightly bending her waist.

She knitted one for Luo Xiaojin, but Luo Xiaojin wore it for a moment and then took it off, saying it was too girly. Niannian then made her put it back on.

Luo Tian quietly watched Xiao Xiao weaving flower wreaths not far away, seeing her transform the vitality of plants into a gentle gift to each child.

He secretly rejoiced that he had brought her by his side; the cold path of immortality had finally gained some warmth and humanity.

Xiao Xiao took the last flower wreath and walked up to Luo Tian. She stood on tiptoe, trying to put it on his head, but she couldn't reach it.

Luo Tian squatted down, and a wreath fell into his hair, the white petals contrasting against his black hair, and green vines hanging down his temples.

She took two small steps back, looked around, and then nodded in satisfaction.

"Dad is so handsome."

Luo Tian reached out and touched the flower wreath on his head, a smile curving his lips:

"Thank you, Xiaoxiao."

……

In the fourth week, everyone went to the ancient town for sightseeing.

The bluestone path gleamed after being washed by the rain, the stream flowed gently under the small bridge, and the white walls and black tiles looked like an ink painting in the rain and mist.

Niannian ran in the rain holding a small oil-paper umbrella, water splashing all over her trousers.

Qiqi followed behind, wearing little rain boots, and deliberately stepped into the puddles.

After each step, he had to look up at Niannian, waiting for her to praise him.

Xiao Jin did a handstand on the bridge, but Luo Qianqian pulled her down, and she almost fell into the river.

He leaned on the bridge railing and looked down; his reflection floated on the water, his hair disheveled.

Little Xiaoxiao, dressed in Hanfu, is transformed by a thousand transformations.

Her dark brown eyes and jet-black hair made her look like a little girl who had stepped out of an ancient painting.

She stood on the bridge and looked back, raindrops falling on her hair. Luo Tian took out his phone and took a picture.

When Xiaoxiao saw him taking pictures, she lowered her head shyly, her ear tips turning red.

They stayed at an inn that night. Niannian and Qiqi squeezed onto one bed and made a ruckus until midnight, when Luo Qianqian pulled them both under the covers.

Xiao Jin was sleeping in the next room. He got up in the middle of the night to sneak some snacks and was caught red-handed by Luo Tian.

Luo Tian leaned against the door frame, watching him holding the potato chips without saying a word.

Xiao Jin sheepishly put down the potato chips, slipped back to bed, and covered her head with the blanket.

Xiao Xiao leaned against the window, watching the drizzle outside, her light blue eyes reflecting the lights of the ancient town.

Luo Tian walked over and sat down next to her. The wind that squeezed in through the cracks in the window carried the smell of damp earth.

"What are you thinking about?"

"In the small world, there are only endless plants and trees cultivating, and I never thought that there would be such gentle scenes as drizzle, lights, and flowing water in the human world."

Luo Tian gently patted the back of her hand:

"This is just a corner of the mortal world. When we step into the immortal realm in the future, there will be countless more breathtaking landscapes waiting for you."

"Really?"

"Yes, really."

Xiao Xiao didn't say anything more, rested her face on Luo Tian's shoulder, breathed evenly, and fell asleep again.

……

A month later, on the way back to the sect, Niannian was looking through her phone's photo album while lying on the back seat.

Inside is a photo of her and Qiqi at the aquarium, the two little heads close together, with a blue underwater tunnel and manta rays swimming by in the background.

There's a funny photo of Luo Xiaojin at the science museum, lying in front of the robot exhibit.

He gave a peace sign to the camera, with a metallic robotic arm in the background.

There are photos of Luo Qianqian riding a horse on the grassland, her silver hair flying in the wind, her profile looking as if it has been washed by the morning light.

A small smiling face wearing a flower wreath turned around on the grassland, with boundless greenery and blue sky behind it.

"dad."

Niannian held her phone up to him.

"Niannian is going to print out all these photos and cover the entire Niannian's cave!"

"it is good."

"Niannian wants to hang them on the wall so she can look at them every day!"

"it is good."

"Niannian also wants to distribute the photos to Xiaoxiao, Qiqi, Xiaojin, and Qianqian, one for each of them!"

"it is good."

Niannian nodded in satisfaction, hugged her phone to her chest, and fell asleep leaning against Qiqi.

Qiqi was asleep too, her little face resting on Niannian's shoulder, her breathing even, her eyelashes casting a small shadow on her cheek.

Xiao Jin sat in the front row, tilting his head and leaning against the car window.

A trace of drool clung to the corner of her mouth, and her golden hair was tousled by the wind blowing outside the window.

Luo Qianqian sat in the corner, her long hair falling over her shoulders, her eyes half-closed as if she were resting, but there was a barely perceptible curve at the corner of her mouth.

Luo Tian glanced at them in the rearview mirror, his eyes softening.

He reached out and gently turned down the air conditioner, then glanced at the sleeping faces of Nian Nian and Qi Qi nestled together in the rearview mirror.

Only after confirming that they were not freezing did he look away.

The car drove into the Ten Thousand Mountains, passed through the mist, and the gate of the Battle Heaven Sect came into view.

The seven mountain peaks were gilded in the sunset, cranes circled in the air, and deer roamed through the forest.

Ye Qianxue and Li Mengmeng stood in front of the mountain gate, smiling as they greeted them.

Zhao Jianhua stood behind and bowed respectfully, his blue robe fluttering in the mountain wind.

"Welcome back to the sect, Master!"

Ye Qianxue bowed in greeting.

"No need for such formalities."

Luo Tian got out of the car and gently closed the door, as if afraid of waking the people sleeping inside.

"Did you have fun?"

Luo Tian glanced back at the children who were sleeping haphazardly in the car.

Niannian leaned against Qiqi, Luo Xiaojin tilted her head, Luo Qianqian leaned against the corner, and Xiaoxiao leaned against the car window.

The five children slept peacefully in the afterglow of the setting sun, their eyelashes still occasionally dusted with the sand from their journey.

Luo Tian's gaze fell on them and lingered for a few seconds.

"happy."

He spoke softly, a smile playing on his lips.

The path to immortality is long and arduous, with battles and tribulations never ceasing.

Looking at the sleeping children at this moment, Luo Tian felt the most precious sense of fulfillment he had experienced throughout all the worlds.
