Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off

Chapter 277: Chapter 276: This King Will Knock His Teeth Out Right Now

Before she left, she had taken out a lot of food from the Spiritual Spring space and left it for Mu Silin and the others. She even specifically taught them how to cook sweet potatoes and potatoes, sticking to the simplest methods like boiling and steaming. She knew they wouldn’t be able to learn anything more complicated. She just wanted them to cook more whole grains for the children, so they wouldn’t end up without cooked meals while she was gone. But from the looks of it, they had only learned the bare minimum.

She went through everything one by one and picked out the spoiled items. ”You didn’t feed these spoiled ones to the children, did you?” She was a bit worried, afraid that these careless grown men might have fed the children bad food.

Si Muye immediately shook his head. ”No, we threw away all the spoiled stuff exactly as you said. I just haven’t had time to check today’s vegetables yet, so they haven’t been thrown out.”

Shen Yue nodded, feeling relieved. She placed the well-preserved food back into the Spiritual Spring. After all, now that she was back, there was no need to leave these things out anymore.

Only after she finished sorting everything did Mu Silin finally give in to his urge to look at her. His deep eyes were full of profound affection. ”Shen Yue, what happened to you all these past few days? Where did you go? Did anyone mistreat you out there?” He paused and looked at Bai Chaosi. ”Did anyone bully you?”

These words were clearly pointed directly at Bai Chaosi. Hearing this, Bai Chaosi looked guilty, his eyes shifting uncomfortably.

Ye Lüqi immediately saw the problem, and his fiery temper flared up. ”Did this bastard break your heart again? I knew it! You never should have gone looking for him. You should have just let him die out there—why even bother saving him!

”Tell me how he bullied you, and I’ll beat him to a bloody pulp!”

Si Muye also shot Bai Chaosi an unfriendly glare.

Huang Ziyue, who was crouching on the ground trying to hug Sanbao, raised an eyebrow at this and said stiffly, ”He definitely deserves a beating.” Those simple words directly convicted Bai Chaosi, essentially confirming to Mu Silin and the others that he had indeed done something to break Shen Yue’s heart. ⅇ𝒃𝚗ℴ

Mu Silin’s face instantly darkened. ”It seems you really did make her sad and miserable again. Get out here right now!” Saying so, Mu Silin moved to call Bai Chaosi outside to give him a severe beating. He wanted to use a man’s way to settle things and vent Shen Yue’s frustrations.

Seeing this, Shen Yue said, ”Alright, it’s all in the past. I’ve already dealt with what needed to be dealt with, and he’s learned his lesson!”

Mu Silin paused at her words. ”How can we just let it go? It’s wrong for him to bully you, time and time again. I think he’s getting disciplined but not actually taking it to heart!”

Shen Yue felt inexplicably moved. Mu Silin had always valued her above all else; in his heart, absolutely no one was allowed to bully her. Although he was a stubborn, single-minded leopard, he was very observant, and his words hit the nail on the head. It seemed even Mu Silin could see Bai Chaosi’s flaws.

Ye Lüqi agreed. ”Exactly! What’s the use of just learning a lesson? If he doesn’t have the memory or the heart to change, he deserves to be beaten!”

Shen Yue curled her lips into a smile and looked at the tense, slightly ashamed Bai Chaosi. ”He’s already taken a beating this time. If he ever dares to let there be a next time, you can handle it however you see fit. Beat him as much as you want—beat him to death for all I care.”

Hearing this, Bai Chaosi lifted his eyes to look at Shen Yue, his pupils brimming with emotion. ”Shen Yue, I swear, there won’t be a next time.” It was what he deserved. If there was a next time, he would go and die himself!

Hearing his promise, Mu Silin and Ye Lüqi both relaxed their clenched fists.

”You better do as you say,” Mu Silin warned. ”There will be no next time!”

At that moment, Liu Bao walked in, so the men stopped dwelling on Bai Chaosi’s mistakes.

Gu Fangqi then asked, ”So where exactly did you go this time? What specifically happened?”

”Yeah,” Ye Lüqi chimed in. ”And you brought back a giant beast. What’s the deal with that?”

Si Muye and Mu Silin both looked at her.

Shen Yue didn’t plan on hiding anything, so she spent about half an hour giving them a rough summary of everything. After listening, the men were shocked beyond belief and took a long time to recover their senses.

Fox Fang Qi said, ”To think that such a small, seemingly adorable purple rabbit was actually such a horrifying, blood-sucking evil beast... It’s truly shocking!”

Mu Silin added, ”And the fact that she almost killed you and could steal your power... That was truly unexpected.”

One could only imagine how perilous the situation had been!

After Shen Yue had returned to Barbaric City the last time, she had already told them about the special power residing within her body. Back then, they had strongly opposed her going out to search for Bai Chaosi, fearing for her safety. It was Shen Yue who assured them that she could protect herself, explaining that the power within her could keep her safe. But they never expected she would encounter something so incredibly dangerous after leaving. If anything had happened to her, they didn’t even dare to imagine the consequences.

Ye Lüqi was thoroughly astonished. ”So, you’re saying the man in black didn’t die at all? And he has the Devouring God Flower in his hands, pulling the strings on such a meticulous plan?!”

At the mention of the man in black, the six little ones all stopped playing and listened quietly. It was that same man in black who had hunted them down on Wilderness Mountain, and later captured their mother. Although they didn’t understand everything, they knew he was a bad person—someone who would hurt them and their mother.

Si Muye had also heard Mu Silin and the others mention the man in black a few days ago. He just hadn’t realized the man was so formidable, not only possessing the Destructive Flower Seed but also being so incredibly cunning. The most concerning part was that he seemed impossible to kill. Just what level of strength did he possess? What on earth had A Yue gone through these past few days? He truly didn’t dare to imagine it—and he hadn’t even been by her side!

Shen Yue thought back to that night on the hillside. They hadn’t found the black-robed man’s corpse. ”I’m guessing he managed to escape again this time. We don’t know when he’ll show up next, or what kind of conspiracy and trap he’ll lay for me. But we need to prepare in advance. During this period, you all must improve your spiritual power as quickly as possible!”

The man in black was coming straight for her and the children. If he couldn’t obtain the power within her body, he would do everything to stop her from finding the Seven Great Divine Palaces, and he might even directly harm the children.

Hearing this, the men all nodded in agreement. This man in black was simply too terrifying. They had to elevate their own strength to contend with him and protect Shen Yue and the children.

Shen Yue looked at the group. ”Actually, what I fear most is that we have no idea how many Destructive Flower Seeds this person still has. If he casually tosses a few into any city in the K Empire, I’m afraid no one would survive.”

When that happened, the entire K Empire and the Beast World would be reduced to Purgatory! It was impossible for her alone to be fast enough to save an entire nation’s people.

Mu Silin and the others were terrified of this as well. Once the Devouring God Flower appeared, even their most powerful spiritual power would become nothing but mere decoration. That would be the most agonizing and helpless moment of all!

Everyone in the room fell into deep thought for a while.

Shen Yue looked at the men. ”Has Lan Cangyue sent back any news regarding Little Qi?”

Mu Silin snapped back to reality. ”No, but I’ve already sent a messenger to ask. I believe there will be news very soon!”
