Soon, the entire Hundred Herbs Garden was filled with the cheerful laughter of Tianyin and the others. Seeing the Supreme One, who was not usually one to smile, forced a smile at Dongfang Mian's request, the Grand Commander felt that it was difficult for the child.
Not long after, just as Tianyin and the others had forgotten the task Dongfang Mian had given them and were completely engrossed in playing, a small figure appeared beside the three little ones. "Who are you? I've never seen you before?"
An ordinary little girl, dressed in clothes made of magical flowers and herbs, looked at the toys on the ground with curiosity and longing in her eyes, like a wild child.
"We are..." Tianyin was about to introduce herself when the princess swiftly stopped her.
The princess picked up a toy and handed it to the little girl, asking, "Want to play together?"
The little girl nodded, took it, and fiddled with it for a while before looking distressed because she didn't know how to play with it.
The princess kindly asked Tianyin and the Supreme to teach her how to play, and the little girl quickly learned. The group then happily played together.
Several hours later, the little girl had played with all the toys and was extremely excited. Tianyin and the others then suggested playing games together, all of which were novel games that the little girl had never heard of before. The little ones had a wonderful time playing together.
Just as they were having a great time, Dongfang Mian and the others came over, and Tianyin and the others threw themselves into Dongfang Mian's arms, calling her "Sister."
Dongfang Mian lovingly wiped their sweat and looked at the little girl, saying, "Is this your new friend? Say goodbye to her, we have to go, we have important things to do, we can't play anymore."
Seeing Tianyin and the others waving goodbye, the little girl became anxious, "What do you need? I can help you with anything in the Hundred Herbs Garden!"
"Really?" Dongfang Mian's eyes lit up. "We need to find Tianliang Flower. Can you take us there?"
The little girl looked wary upon hearing this, "What do you want with Tianlianghua?"
Dongfang Mian smiled and said, "I have a friend, oh, the human ruler of the human realm. He was punished by the heavens for protecting his younger brother. If he can form a contract with a Heavenly Compassion Flower, he can escape danger."
The little girl shook her head. "The Heavenly Beauty Flower cannot be bound by a contract, not even by the Lord of the Three Realms."
Dongfang Mian said regretfully, "Oh, is that so? That's such a pity. My friend loved collecting fun toys and novel games. My three little ones loved going to play with him. He also had an older brother who was very good at playing games and a super beautiful nine-tailed fox. It's a pity that he's about to suffer divine punishment and will never have any games or toys to play with again."
Tianyin and the others also wiped away their tears. The little girl looked at the toys on the ground and then at Dongfang Mian, saying, "You're not lying to me, are you?"
“I am the future God Lord recognized by the Heavenly Dao, how could I possibly lie to a little kid like you? If you don’t believe me, ask that dragon fruit. If what I said wasn’t true, would it have come with us?!” Dongfang Mian said.
The little girl looked at Longguo, and Longguo immediately pointed to the sky and swore that everything Dongfang Mian said was true. She said that she decided to go with her precisely because of Dongfang Mian's sincerity and her expectations for a lot of fun things in the future.
“Although we are safe in the Hundred Herbs Garden, the outside world is dangerous. Countless people want our rare and precious natural treasures. Following the Lord of the Three Realms, all we have to do is eat well and have fun every day. Isn’t that the best place ever?” Long Guo explained with reason and emotion.
The little girl nodded and looked at Dongfang Mian, saying, "Okay, you can take me with you."
