Chapter 274: Episode 25.5 The Reunion
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A chain of explosions shook the abandoned shopping center. From left to right, every alley of the once bustling part of the city is currently flooded by vicious bluish-white flames. It is a view that brings delight to any pyromaniac, especially since it provides a visual treat of how ugly undead goblins turn into ashes at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Nothing is more satisfying than to see hideous pests perish to an overwhelming force. The agents and hunters around Shen Yuan couldn’t help but be in awe and excited about his explosive power.
’This is it! This is a true S-class awakener!’ They all screamed in unison inside their heads.
"Daddy!" Yanyan exclaimed, feeling the adrenaline rush. In his more innocent point of view, the burning of the undead goblins is like bulldozing through his nightmares. Yanyan hates their sinister faces and the horrible stories he once saw on TV.
They deserved to be burned!
Shen Yuan remained level-headed as he continued his barrage though. He treats this overwhelming display of strength as a casual act.
Shen Yuan is not only doing this overwhelming display to stand out. He’s doing this for various reasons. For example, he’s displaying his strength to soothe the flustered spirits of the people around him. He’s burning the undead goblins ruthlessly as if he’s saying, "These little shits are nothing. So, collect your shits and help yourselves!"
And his unsaid words are quickly realized by some, Hu Feng straightened his back and urgently went to check on the wounded ones. Luckily, the undead goblins did not block their evacuation route, as Shen Yuan already burned them earlier. The ones Shen Yuan faces are coming from the direction of the dungeon.
"Great decision," Shen Yuan internally nodded his head. He must say he really likes his sharp beta subordinate.
"Daddy! More coming from the front!" Yanyan called his attention, pointing toward the incoming wave of undead goblins. The five foxfire beasts are the ones who deal with the new group of undead monsters.
The five pups showed what it means to be small but terrible.
Meanwhile, Shen Yuan also keeps tabs while destroying the undead goblins. He notes the factors that could determine where the mastermind is hiding, and he notices something while he’s at it.
A significant number of undead goblins come from inside the dungeon, and this phenomenon can only be explained by two possible reasons. First, they are the carcasses that Spark Guild failed to retrieve due to the ambush, and second, they are killed by someone actively killing in the dungeon.
Shen Yuan fished his phone out of his chest pocket and called his assistant, "Gu Jinpeng?"
"Yes, Master Shen?" The former assassin immediately picked up the call.
"Seen anyone enter the dungeon?"
"Yes? No!" Gu Jinpeng answered hurriedly. He isn’t confident that no one has entered the dungeon since his location is too far from it for him to see. Plus, he’s also focused on looking in the alleys, a place where the damned black cat could be hiding.
His assistant said that, but Shen Yuan was skeptical. The number of moving goblin carcasses exceeded what he estimated the Spark Guild had slayed. It is so suspicious that Shen Yuan wouldn’t be surprised that the pink-haired bastard is the one who killed some of the goblins to turn them into undead weapons.
"Gu Jinpeng!" Shen Yuan called his assistant.
"Yes, Master Shen!" Gu Jinpeng responded as though he was in the military.
"Scour the entire vicinity and destroy anything that could create reflection."
"Understood!" At the other end of the line, Gu Jinpeng’s eyes glowed. By doing that, he knows what his boss wants and is more than happy to comply. He wouldn’t want to miss this opportunity to mess with the person who stabbed him.
Shen Yuan didn’t say anything after that and dropped the call.
He must finish cleaning up here to go to Baihu Guild’s dungeon on the outskirts of City B. With all the attacks of the Cardinals, his separation from Bai Tingfeng makes him feel uneasy, especially now that his husband is inside the dungeon, where everything and anything inside could cause fatal harm.
The celestial fox spirit swears that he will swiftly deal with that pink-haired bitch and then run to his husband’s side.
"Haaaa!" Shen Yuan let out a warrior’s scream and conjured another explosive heavenly foxfire ball before throwing it at the undead goblins.
"Haaaa!" Yanyan, comfortably riding his Daddy’s shoulder, echoed and waved his little arms as if he were the mage who cast the magic.
"Daddy! You’re so cool! I want to be like you when I grow up!" Yanyan whispered to his Daddy’s fox ears before kissing the velvet.
The celestial fox spirit was pleasured by this gesture and smiled, "Really? I’m sure Yanyan will grow up stronger than me."
The little boy only giggled. At this point, Yanyan is oblivious that today’s experience is something he can only enjoy. No child has ever set foot in this dangerous place, and the memories of today’s incident are something other kids from school would envy.
His also celestial fox daddy is oblivious that Yanyan’s early exposure to this kind of thing will have a massive impact on his boy’s character. Whether it is good or bad, only time can tell.
Back to the present, Shen Yuan continuously chipped away the number of undead goblins. Slowly, he is taking steps closer to the entrance of the Goblin’s Cave. He’s looking for the thread of necromancy, but unfortunately, the last one disappeared, and the last undead goblin was swallowed by his flames.
That was bad news— if he wasn’t mindful of his surroundings and recklessly set everything on fire. It’s a good thing he had a foresight. He had a plan.
"Shall we enter the dungeon?" Shen Yuan asked his son. Typically, children are not advised to enter the dungeon as the mana concentration inside is too much. But with Shen Yuan here, it wouldn’t be much of a problem since he could cloak Yanyan with his magic, and at the same time, his nine-tails could easily absorb the mana before they reached Yanyan. It also helped that Goblin’s Cave was a low-level dungeon.
Yanyan hugged his head, "Daddy, I’m scared."
The little boy pouted as he gave it a little thought, "But with you, I think I can go?"
"Great! Then let’s enter your first dungeon, Yanyan." Shen Yuan said with a sly smile.
Shen Yuan and Yanyan approached the dungeon with stable steps. However, a flying dagger flew towards Shen Yuan’s heart before they could enter.
"Hmp!" Shen Yuan effortlessly caught it using his two fingers.
"You’re really full of guts, Shen Yuan. You’re the only one I know who’s willing to enter a dangerous dungeon with their child. I don’t know how that shows parental love. For me, you’re just being reckless and careless of your child," A condescending voice sounded from beyond the dungeon entrance— a voice that Shen Yuan is slightly familiar with.
How many times was it that he imagined strangling the owner of this voice?
Shen Yuan watched the dungeon’s entrance with sharp, unforgiving eyes, and slowly, a petite man in a black cloak emerged from the dark spatial rift of the dungeon.
The man’s face remained hidden, but despite that, Shen Yuan just knew that this was the same omega he wanted to strangle back in the hot springs.
It’s time for a rematch now, eh?
"Mr. Cardinal Pussy," Shen Yuan mocking called the male omega names. "You’re not allowed to talk about my son’s safety when you’re one of the villains coming after him. And why did you stop me from entering anyway? Were you afraid to face me inside the narrow cavern halls of the Goblin’s Cave?"
For clarification, he didn’t use his son as bait. He decided to enter the dungeon because he knew that if the person hiding inside it had a tiny sliver of intelligence, they would not let him enter it because of his apparent topography-wise advantage.
Normal fire mages restrict themselves for safety when fighting inside caves. However, not him. He could bombard the cave with his heavenly foxfire without harming himself and Yanyan.
Of course, the same could not be said to his enemies.
"You!" Cardinal Rin gritted his teeth underneath the cloak. Did Shen Yuan call him "pussy" just now? No matter the context of that word, he abhors that Shen Yuan used it on him! The mythical Nekomata chose him and that is his pride.He really hates the guts of this omega!
He taunted to hide his emotions, "I’m just afraid to damage the goods, Shen Yuan. Because after I kill the dirty mother fox, I am here to take the golden pup."
"How dare you treat my son as an object!" Shen Yuan snapped. The translucent nine-tails of his hanfu caught fire due to the celestial fox spirit’s sudden outburst. The mana stored in his outfit’s tails is ready for him to use, that is, if he dared to attack the Cardinal first.
"Bad! Bad man!" Yanyan yelled in support of his Daddy.
"Yeah!" Cardinal Rin gloatingly told the five-year-old. "I am indeed the bad man because I will teach your Daddy a lesson and show him that he shouldn’t have come here with you!"
The Cardinal of Envy didn’t leave any hesitation and started attacking. His eyes underneath his hood gleamed with confidence, "Let’s entertain each other, Shen Yuan!"
