Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands
Chapter 121 Xiao Jinsheng’s Change of Attitude

Chapter 121: Chapter 121 Xiao Jinsheng’s Change of Attitude

"The Female Master went out on a mission," Ying replied.

Bai Yan was momentarily stunned by his attitude.

To be honest, she didn’t expect Yu Yunxiao to acknowledge her when she greeted him.

After all, Yu Yunxiao wasn’t the type to engage with others.

In the past, not only did he avoid Bai Yan altogether, even toward Xiao Jinsheng, he would stay far away and occasionally make snide remarks.

"Jinsheng went out... Well, I’ll drop by later," Bai Yan smiled awkwardly.

Ying’s reaction disrupted Bai Yan’s plans, leaving her unsure of what to do for a moment.

Bai Yan: [Yu Yunxiao typically mocks Xiao Jinsheng; why is he so pleasant today?]

The system glanced at Ying indifferently and said: [Probably malnourished before, surviving on vegetarian meals every day. So his temper used to be worse. Last night, he feasted on meat, and his mood improved.]

Bai Yan: [What do you mean?]

System: [You’ve got eight Beast Husbands already; why keep playing innocent? Yu Yunxiao spent the night with Xiao Jinsheng.]

Bai Yan fell silent.

After a while, she managed to squeeze out: [Seeing how his attitude toward me shifted, I was planning to take him in to boost my spiritual power... Guess that’s off the table now.]

A Beastman who has been slept with naturally doesn’t provide the same benefits as one who remains untouched.

Low gain, high risk—Bai Yan wouldn’t take such a gamble.

However, she was curious about Xiao Jinsheng’s situation.

Bai Yan: [Can you check how many Beast Husbands Xiao Jinsheng hasn’t slept with yet?]

System: [I’d need Xiao Jinsheng to be here so I can investigate.]

System: [Oh, Xiao Jinsheng is back.]

As soon as Xiao Jinsheng stepped out of the car, she spotted Bai Yan and her family nearby.

And Bai Yan was right at the entrance of her home, chatting away with Ying.

Of course, only Bai Yan was speaking; Ying was listening silently, almost woodenly.

The moment Xiao Jinsheng returned, Ying seemed to see his savior, briskly walking toward her with a voice trembling with excitement that even he didn’t realize: "Female Master, you’re back."

Xiao Jinsheng’s gaze swept over Bai Yan with disgust before landing on Ying coldly. Without a word, she walked right past him.

"Fe...Male Master?" Ying stood frozen, puzzled and unsure why Xiao Jinsheng’s attitude toward him changed so drastically after just one outing.

"Don’t block the way; I need to drive the car into the yard," came Su Ye’s voice from the driver’s seat as he rolled down the car window to remind Ying.

Ying quickly stepped aside, but when he turned back, Xiao Jinsheng had already vanished from sight.

As several of Xiao Jinsheng’s Beast Husbands walked past Ying, they cast him cold looks and didn’t bother interacting with Bai Yan, who stood nearby.

Seeing Ying awkwardly lingering outside the yard alone, Bai Yan questioned the system with curiosity: [Did Xiao Jinsheng and Yu Yunxiao have a fight?]

System: [How would I know? I haven’t had the chance to access Xiao Jinsheng’s memories for three months now.]

"Yu Yunxiao, did Jinsheng bully you again?" Bai Yan asked with a look of concern and sorrow.

Ying cast a suspicious glance at Bai Yan but remained tight-lipped.

Although he lacked memory and was puzzled by Xiao Jinsheng’s sudden shift in attitude toward him, he could deduce two possibilities.

Either Xiao Jinsheng had discovered he wasn’t Yu Yunxiao,

or the cause lay with this overly friendly female standing before him.

Judging by the disgusted look Xiao Jinsheng had just given Bai Yan, Ying suspected their relationship might be far from amicable.

Misinterpreting Bai Yan’s neighborly warmth as friendliness, he assumed that Bai Yan and Xiao Jinsheng were both neighbors and friends—but might’ve unknowingly displeased Xiao Jinsheng in the process.

Realizing this, Ying turned to head back to the yard, only to bump into Xiao Jinsheng, who had returned once again.

"Female Master." Ying’s eyes sparkled with anticipation as he gazed at Xiao Jinsheng, yet she didn’t spare him even a glance.

Xiao Jinsheng’s scoff turned toward Bai Yan: "Bai Yan, you’ve got some thick skin. With how strained our relationship is, you still come sniffing around me."

"Jinsheng, even if we’re no longer sisters, at least we’re neighbors," Bai Yan said with a pained expression. "We don’t have any blood feud—you don’t always have to hold such a grudge and target me."

"Target you?" Xiao Jinsheng sneered. "Bai Yan, shall I get your Beast Husbands over here to talk about how, back on the ship, you tried to seduce one of my Beast Husbands?"

The mention immediately paled Bai Yan’s complexion.

Her deduction had proven correct.

Back on the cruise ship, the system had failed to modify Shi Xie’s memory, and she’d lost two lives to him.

No doubt Shi Xie must have told Xiao Jinsheng about the incident.

Though Xiao Jinsheng hadn’t explicitly addressed it until now, Bai Yan had been pretending as though nothing had happened.

Faced with Xiao Jinsheng’s thinly veiled threat, Bai Yan showed no trace of panic.

In fact, she dropped her pretenses as she stood before Xiao Jinsheng: "Jinsheng, what’s done is done. Even if you bring my Beast Husbands here, what can you really do?"

With a mocking smile, Bai Yan added, "They’re my Beast Husbands. Surely you don’t think they’d betray me, their Female Master, to help you—an outsider?"

"Look at you," Xiao Jinsheng snorted. "With that fake virtuous front dropped, even your face seems tolerable. The grudge between us—you know better than I do. So stop pretending; it’s both revolting and disgusting."

"Jinsheng, as neighbors, you should mind your manners when you talk to me," Bai Yan countered with a chilling smile and a warning. "If tension between us boils over to the point where our Beast Husbands clash—you all are no match for us."

"Conflict? Sure. Who’s scared?" Xiao Jinsheng scoffed. "Just two Eleven Stars Beast Husbands—is that what you’re bragging about? Do you think others don’t have them, too?"

With that, Xiao Jinsheng stepped back, grabbing Ying to shield herself upfront.

Caicai wasn’t here, and Yu Yunxiao’s body was now occupied by someone unfamiliar.

It was impossible for her to figure out Ying’s actual identity.

But on the Mist Continent, systems weren’t limited to just Caicai.

Xiao Jinsheng’s gaze shifted to Bai Yan, a smirk playing in her eyes.

Here lay another conveniently available system for leverage.

Xiao Jinsheng understood Bai Yan well—her personality was highly vigilant.

Indeed, noticing Xiao Jinsheng flaunting her supposed pair of Eleven-Star Beast Husbands with such audacity despite obvious odds, Bai Yan grew restless, suspecting she might have some hidden ace up her sleeve.

She urgently summoned her system: [Didn’t you say the dragon formerly accompanying Xiao Jinsheng isn’t around?]

Bai Yan: [Where did Xiao Jinsheng get Eleven-Star Beast Husbands? Did Li and Shi Xie’s superpowers level up?]

System: [That Eleven-Star Dragon isn’t here, I’ve confirmed. All of Xiao Jinsheng’s Beast Husbands remain at their original levels—no upgrades in power.]

Bai Yan: [Then what’s she being so arrogant about? Check again; confirm this thoroughly!]

While instructing her system, Bai Yan called over her group of Beast Husbands.

Though she had five lives to spare, nobody liked the risk of dying.

Fearing Xiao Jinsheng might ambush her and cost her a life, Bai Yan took precautions.

The system’s analysis concluded shortly afterward.

At first, it was indifferent: [Relax, Host, Li and Shi Xie are still Ten-Star superpowers. Xiao Jinsheng is bluffing; she doesn’t have Eleven-Star Beast Husbands—wait, hold on!]

The system suddenly fixated on Ying.

Its electronic tone grew hesitant: [Host, she actually does have an Eleven-Star Beast Husband: with Dark Superpower.]

Bai Yan opened her eyes in confusion: [Dark Superpower? Where did this new Beast Husband come from?]

System: [It’s not a new addition. The Eleven-Star Beast Husband is in front of you—you already know him, Yu Yunxiao.]

These words left Bai Yan stunned: [But isn’t Yu Yunxiao a Healing Element user?]

System: [It seems he has a split personality?]

System: [Wait a moment—I’m analyzing more details on Yu Yunxiao.]
