Chapter 237: Episode 21.10 Big Ideas

Things were looking bright on Shen Yuan’s side, but on the side of Cardinal Rin, everything was pitch black.

"Damn! How dare you stop me from confronting Shen Yuan!"

Facing the humiliation after their retreat, Rin has no one besides his subordinate to vent his anger. His fury is carried through his apathetic fists, hitting the man lying in the hospital bed.

No, there’s not even a bit of mercy in omega’s eyes despite the man that he is hitting has a missing arm.

"I don’t need you saving my ass, you impertinent son of a gun! I am positive I could kill Shen Yuan if you only leave me be! Why do you have to ruin the chance?!" His hits were unrelenting and unforgiving, but despite that, the man just took it all without making any noises.

It’s as if he was accepting all the faults of their failure.

"We charged there with numbers and new lethal weapons! It should be our win, but how come we are in the loser’s pit now? With this failure, I wouldn’t have a face to meet with other cardinals! Arghhhh!" Rin’s high-pitched voice almost shook the white walls of the room.

Thankfully, they are in a private clinic in the suburbs where barely any patients go in and out. No one knows who they are, and they could bask in their failure away from fellow cardinals.

The omega’s chest was heaving up and down when his subordinate finally spoke.

"Please don’t be angry, Your Eminence. I just hastened up the inevitable when I staged our retreat."

"So, you’re saying that we only went there to lose?" Rin’s white face turned hot red with anger. He was on the verge of exploding his pheromones and mana when his subordinate quickly clarified his words.

"I didn’t mean to say that!" The man waved his only hand with a wince but continued. "All I am saying is that, from the very beginning, the fight didn’t progress as we wanted."

"Shen Yuan beat us in setting the rhythm of the fight with his many tricks. He made us fail in our goal of taking away Bai Tingfeng and devised a method to counter our cursed blades! Shen Yuan also proved to us that if he’s fighting alone, he is like a starving wild beast. It pains me to say this, but with how things went, we are doomed to fail on our first try of killing that omega."

"Therefore, before we got driven to a greater disadvantage, I took the sin of overlooking your desire and forced you to retreat."

"As compensation, I will offer you my body to become one of your undead armies."

Rin’s subordinate bowed his head like a slave.

The Cardinal of Envy, initially full of fire and anger, tightened his facial muscles and glared at his subordinate.

"Do you think with just one arm I will take you in?" He spat at the man’s face.

"The only good thing about you is that you’re the only assassin who managed to get close to Shen Yuan. That is the only reason why I didn’t kill you in the dumpster before we came here."

"I know, Your Eminence." The man lowered his head.

"Remember this, you mirror-hopping worm. You’re only good when you’re alive. That’s why I will refuse your demise. Bring me something good to offset this failure, or I will personally torture you in this clinic."

Rin straightened his back and crossed his arms.

With his momentum, no one will think of him as an omega.

In this aspect, he’s like Shen Yuan, and maybe this is one of the reasons why he hated Shen Yuan to the bones.

Science says that the same charges repel each other.

That best describes the nature of Shen Yuan and Rin’s relationship.

Shen Yuan and Rin are bound to contradict each other until one of them dies.

Rin’s lackey considered everything before saying his answer.

"Your Eminence, this setback didn’t just expose our enemies’ strength. It also showed us their weakness that we could exploit next time."

Intrigued, Rin cocked his perfectly trimmed eyebrows, "Continue."

"The Curse of the Blood," the man dropped his big idea through one meaningful word.

The Cardinal of Envy, familiar with the term, couldn’t hold his surprise for a moment, but his expression quickly hardened when he remembered something.

"If you are referring to the time that I acted crazily, then I am telling you, I didn’t succumb to the adverse effect of Nekomata’s blood blessing. I was driven by my own blood lust, not anything else."

"Your Eminence! That is not what I meant. I apologize for the misunderstanding, but didn’t you notice that someone else showed the symptoms of the blood curse?"

"There’s someone who exhibited strong powers of a great spirit there, and it seems like this person has no complete control over his symptoms," his lackey meaningfully said.

Rin squinted his eyes, "Oh, him."

"We couldn’t do anything to Shen Yuan when he’s alone, but when he’s with someone so precious yet vulnerable. I guess his defenses and devil-may-care attitude will fall asunder."

Rin nodded his head, and a sinister plan formed in his head.

~~~

"Home sweet home!" Shen Yuan exclaimed the moment his feet touched the ground of their residence.

Like a feline, he stretched out his lithe body to release tension on his muscles that turned stiff over a long period of staying in the car.

"Daddy! Daddy!" called Yanyan.

It was unknown to him how and why, but compared to him, the five-year-old hasn’t run out of steam and is brimming with energy.

Imagine, on top of a long ride, they also dropped by the hospital to visit their injured employees and went to a restaurant for dinner. It took them roughly four hours outside, and yet, the child that was supposed to be the weakest appeared to be the one with the strongest stamina.

"Yes? Yes?" He jokingly replied, using the same enthusiastic tone. Carefully, he picked up the boy from the booster seat, and while at it, he tapped the little foxes behind one by one to push them out of the car.

"Ack! Ack~!" They whined for the rough treatment but still got out of the car. They are actually excited to see the home of their master as they deduce among themselves that Suki struck a pot of gold this time.

They want to see how rich they become!

"Hihihihi!" The five little foxes danced a merry dance once they saw the foyer. They are right! They are rich now!

Foxfire beast is like fox spirits, you see. They have their own vanity, and in the five little foxes’ case, they desired a grand and majestic house where they could roam with pride.

"What is going on with your little foxes, Yuan?" Bai Tingfeng curiously asked his husband. Vigorously whipping their tails while fluidly moving their behind, one is bound to be attracted by the quirky movements of the foxfire beasts.

"Don’t mind them. They are like children who moved into their new house," Shen Yuan replied. A shadow of a small, doting smile is hidden behind his eye roll.

"Enjoy your time while it lasts. I’ll be recalling you once my mana drops," he declared loudly, which caused the five little foxes to turn stiff like statues while in the middle of their dance.

"Ack-ack-woooo!"

They argued for more time, but Shen Yuan shut them down with a hard no. Left with limited time, the little foxfire beasts rushed inside the house before the actual owners.

"Daddy, can’t the baby foxes stay?" Yanyan asked, his pink little lips pouting.

"They have to go back to Daddy’s tails since maintaining their physical body consumes my mana. If I let them out for 24 hours, then I will turn dry and shriveled like a wrung cloth," Shen Yuan calmly explained.

The thing with Yanyan is that he is an agreeable kid. If he knows that his wants will put someone at a disadvantage, then he will not throw a fuss and withdraw reasonably.

Yanyan nodded, then his lips went back to normal.

"Then what about Mammy Yin and Mr. Panda? Where will they be staying?"

The family of three and their people carrying their luggage entered the house, and Bai Tingfeng instructed them to put it in front of their room’s door.

"Mammy Yin will be occupying one of the guest rooms," Bai Tingfeng told Yanyan once he gave instructions. "And to ensure that the giant panda will not misbehave, we will also put it in the same room as Mammy Yin."

It’s already too late to send someone to buy a cage, and considering the height of the panda, only a customized one will be good enough.

Shen Yuan also agreed with this idea and asked someone to bring the tiger and the panda inside. However, to their surprise, Yanyan suddenly gave a bold idea.

"Papa and Daddy... I will not sleep with you tonight. I want to sleep with the animals, so will you bring them to my own room, the one I was using before Daddy came home, instead of the guest’s room?"

"Huh?!" Shen Yuan exclaimed.

If Yanyan goes back to his room, it will be just him and Bai Tingfeng in the room! He loves the idea, but he couldn’t just rest easy at the fact that his son will sleep with big beasts!
