The Reckless Little Bun

Qiu Dragon Planet.

This was a magnificent, massive planet. Clouds of gas in various colors drifted slowly through the atmosphere, making the entire planet look incredibly gorgeous from the outside.

A C-grade spaceship followed the tractor beam signal sent by the planet and descended slowly into the massive spaceport.

The hatch opened, and Li Yilin flew out. He stowed the spaceship away with a casual flick of his hand and ignored the staff members heading his way, leaving directly.

The staff member, who had two curved horns on his head and green skin, watched Li Yilin's series of practiced movements. As he lowered his head in a gesture of respect, a glimmer of envy flashed in his eyes as he looked at the ground.

A space ring—and one capable of holding an entire spaceship at that—was worth a fortune.

Naturally, someone capable of owning such a space ring was no ordinary person.

This damn world!

We're all human, so why is the gap between us so massive!

Completely unaware of the staff member's inner thoughts, Li Yilin left the spaceport and flashed toward the massive city in the distance.

He subconsciously used Thunder Dragon Step, covering several thousand to ten thousand meters in a single stride. Even though he deliberately controlled his speed, he still reached the city in less than three minutes.

Looking at the gargantuan city in the distance, with its ink-black Dragon City Wall that matched the descriptions in the original work, and the transparent, breathtakingly beautiful flowing dragons upon it, Li Yilin felt a sense of surrealism.

He truly seemed to be living in the same era as those legendary figures from the books.

Seeming to sense Li Yilin's stirred emotions, Liu Qing spoke, "Master, what are you thinking about?"

Li Yilin blinked, coming back to his senses, and couldn't help but say, "Liu Qing, sometimes I can't help but wonder if you have already evolved into a living being."

Over the past hundred years, as he traveled through various Universe Countries, he inevitably encountered some accidents. Sometimes Liu Qing would care for him, and other times she would be as silent as if she didn't exist.

This fluctuating change gave him a massive headache.

He passed through the thick city walls and entered the city.

The architecture, with its diverse styles, was breathtakingly beautiful.

He wove through the incredibly gorgeous and bustling wide streets. On both sides were shops of various styles, and the streets were filled with people coming and going. Giants over ten meters tall walked by with heavy, thundering footsteps, while tiny sprites only as tall as a human arm flew past, fluttering their small wings.

Along the way, everyone spoke fluent universal language.

"This Qiu Dragon Planet truly lives up to its reputation for prosperity." Li Yilin was in a good mood.

"Master, do you want to buy a manor on Qiu Dragon Planet?" Liu Qing asked.

"I can consider it." Li Yilin nodded.

"But for now, let's just wander around for a bit."

He walked forward, letting himself blend into the flow of people.

Perhaps because he was getting closer to Earth, he could vaguely see some familiar things on Qiu Dragon Planet. For instance, the majestic dragon statues found everywhere were very similar to the golden dragon carvings on Earth; the figures with angel wings that streaked across the horizon were also very similar to the legendary angels of Earth; even the snake-tailed, human-bodied people passing by had some familiar shadows...

"I like it here."

Li Yilin wore a faint smile, strolling leisurely and naturally through the streets with a skewer of space-style candied haws in his hand.

Except, instead of hawthorn and strawberries, it was skewered with fruit that had a texture similar to apples but tasted like mangosteen. The sugar coating on the outside wasn't sweet, but rather carried a faint sour and spicy flavor.

The texture was quite unique.

He liked it very much; he had already eaten three skewers, and the one in his hand was the last one.

"This Qiu Dragon Planet is quite lively." He commented while eating, occasionally stopping to enter shops that caught his interest. When he came back out, the smile on his face was even brighter.

With that leisurely, ordinary demeanor, one could hardly tell he was the decisive "Giant Axe Warrior" or a powerhouse at the ninth stage of the Domain Lord realm.

"Woo-wah, hee hee hee..."

A burst of crisp, bell-like laughter rang out. The laughter seemed to have magic, clearly entering his ears. Li Yilin, who was eating a pastry with a texture similar to cake, subconsciously turned around and looked up.

He saw a small, three-headed-tall toddler at a nearby intersection, fluttering her snow-white wings and flying wantonly in the air.

The toddler was white and chubby, wearing a delicate little red dress that made her look even fairer and cuter. Her chubby little face, round and bright eyes, and that crisp, happy laughter all expressed her joy.

The toddler didn't seem familiar with her wings yet, or perhaps she had just learned to fly; she flew crookedly, and in just a short while, she nearly crashed into the walls on both sides of the street several times. The comical situation made passing pedestrians stop involuntarily, casting kind gazes toward her.

Being watched by strangers of all shapes and sizes, the toddler wasn't timid, nor did she pout or cry. Instead, she tried hard to flap the small white wings behind her, controlling herself to fly higher.

She seemed to have a magical quality that made people pay attention to her involuntarily. Li Yilin stopped in his tracks, watching with great interest.

"Wow, ah ah ah..."

Having failed to control her wings, the toddler closed her eyes in terror as she nearly crashed into a statue again. Just as Li Yilin couldn't help but want to intervene, a pair of fair, slender hands appeared from behind in the nick of time, wrapping around the toddler's short, chubby waist and pulling her into an embrace.

A beautiful woman, also possessing holy wings, hovered one meter off the ground. She was also wearing a bright red dress, the hem of which fluttered gently with her movements, light and elegant like the burning sunset clouds on the horizon.

Seeing this scene, Li Yilin stopped his movements again and watched.

"Yao Yao, don't be in such a rush." The woman in red held the toddler, her face full of maternal love and tenderness.

The toddler, who had been caught just in time, squeezed one eye open. Finding that she hadn't hit the statue, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked up at the woman holding her, blinked her eyes, hugged her happily, and let out a joyful cry.

"Mommy!"

"Alright, you can continue." The woman wrapped her arms around the little dumpling's waist and lifted her up; the little dumpling flapped her wings, allowing herself to take flight once again.

"Yay~ hee hee hee..." Having successfully taken flight, the little dumpling laughed even more happily as she flew toward the other side.

"Wah-ha, hee hee hee..."

The little dumpling flew joyfully, her crisp, pleasant laughter echoing once again through the bustling street, showing no sign of lingering fear from nearly crashing into a statue just moments ago.

Perhaps it was because she knew her mother was right behind her.

Taking one last look at the little dumpling as she flew further away, Li Yilin chuckled and shook his head, turning to leave.

He hadn't walked far when a startled cry came from behind him.

"Wah, ahhh..."

He turned around to see the familiar little dumpling flying toward him from not far away, her face full of terror and panic, limbs flailing and scrambling as she dove straight into his arms.

What could have happened to her?

Though puzzled, he instinctively raised his arms to catch her.

"Ugh!" The little dumpling clung tightly to Li Yilin's neck, her eyes squeezed shut in fear, her small body trembling uncontrollably, leaving no trace of the lively, happy child from before.

"It's okay." Li Yilin hesitated for a moment before raising his hand to gently pat the little dumpling's back in comfort.

"Don't be afraid, you're safe!"

Just then, the little dumpling's mother rushed over in a panic. Seeing her child held in Li Yilin's arms, she didn't think twice before running over to take her back.

"Are you badly frightened?"

The woman's voice trembled as she comforted the little dumpling.

Just as they had flown toward the other side, they hadn't expected a shop to throw a person out into the street, covered in blood, with severed limbs clearly visible nearby.

Yao Yao was still young; she had never seen such things and was so terrified that she immediately turned back to look for her mother.

She had assumed her mother was right behind her!

Because she had been momentarily stunned, she hadn't paid attention, which was how the little dumpling ended up flying over here.

Hearing her mother's voice, the little dumpling's still-trembling body paused. She hesitantly opened her eyes, and upon realizing it was truly her mother, her mouth immediately puckered.

"Mommy, wuu wuu wuu, Yao Yao is scared..." She hugged the woman's neck tightly and began to cry softly.

She cried so obediently, her voice lacking the shrillness of most children, making her sound truly pitiful.

Li Yilin was somewhat amazed and couldn't help but look at her again and again.

Seemingly embarrassed by his gaze, the little dumpling cried for a moment longer but couldn't bring herself to continue.

She flapped her wings and circled behind the woman, clinging to her back while peeking out with a curious, tear-streaked little round face, gazing at Li Yilin through misty eyes.

Her eyes were actually blue, like gemstones or perhaps the starry sky; they were simply beautiful!
