Chapter 310: Episode 29.1 The One Who Is "All Chill"

The bustling banquet hall suddenly went still. All the people within that huge space are consciously looking at the four great families’ table— particularly Bai Tingfeng, who radiates a formidable aura. His dominating pheromones and powerful mana formed an overpowering blanket of energy that spread heavily throughout the banquet hall.

Everyone present tonight has one reason for attending: to get acquainted with the valorous hunter who single-handedly slayed the calamity-level S-class boss monster, the Eight-Headed Hydra.

They wanted to personally see Bai Tingfeng’s real strength. Only then will they decide whether it was worth it to cooperate with Country C and Baihu Guild or not.

They are looking forward to seeing Bai Tingfeng’s power personally...

But it is beyond their wildest dreams that they will witness the demonstration so early into the night. They didn’t expect it to be this intense!

"This heavy feeling..." One person near Shen Yuan’s table murmured under his breath. She was a beta and was supposed to be less sensitive to pheromones. However, even with that debuff, she could still feel the pressing pheromones of a powerful alpha.

The other affected alphas and omegas are sweating buckets in their gorgeous clothes. They are all smothered by Bai Tingfeng’s alpha pheromones.

Not to mention, the fluctuating mana from him is equally frightening! People who are below S-class have nasty tingling feeling swirling on their palms, nape and butts.

Run away! That’s what their innate instincts say. It was too bad for them. Their legs refused to do their usual job because of the pheromone’s effects.

They can’t even stand up from their seats!

"Tingfeng, bro. Calm down," Admiral Wu Jin told Bai Tingfeng. His face is not much different from the other alphas around.

There was a visible wrinkle of discomfort in his face, but thanks to his close power level with Bai Tingfeng, he was not sweating heavily.

"I am calm," Bai Tingfeng replied in a flash. His expression was like a blank paper: clear and without any trace of anger.

"This—" Admiral Wu Jin felt utter defeat. Yes, Bai Tingfeng is calm— dangerously calm!

Admiral Wu looked at Chairman Mao for support, but to his surprise, he only made a small magical shield around himself and Director Song and silently settled on their designated seats.

Chairman Mao looked back at him and offhandedly motioned to get a chair and seat between him and Shen Yuan. Admiral Wu cannot help but feel incredulous.

Are they really going to take seats when an impending war is about to happen any second now?

Admiral Wu Jin looked at Shen Yuan, intending to ask the omega to calm his husband down. However, his words got stuck in his throat when he saw Shen Yuan leaning down.

Wu Jin took a peek below and saw a cute foxfire beast carrying an unopened bottle of wine using its mouth.

Shen Yuan took the bottle and filled his wineglass contentedly.

’Since when did he summon that fire beast? And seriously? Am I the only person stressed about this confrontation?’ Feeling inexplicably defeated, Wu Jin just suited himself taking a chair nearby and occupied the space offered to him.

The tension thickened when Mo Lihua suddenly said, "Impressive presence, Bai Tingfeng. Is this how your desire to challenge me?"

Using her façade of a classy woman, she acted like the pressure was nothing to her. Her posture screams unbending arrogance.

"It’s up to you how you take it." The male alpha said firmly and added. "But I must tell you, I am not happy to see my husband getting bullied. You must stop that."

Mo Lihua laughed in bad taste, "You are a good man, Bai Tingfeng. I totally understand your reaction, but did you know I am only doing this to get even? Your husband here is not as innocent as you think. He hit me straight on my vulnerable spot during a harmless argument days ago."

Mo Lihua gains more confidence the more she talks. Her gestures become bigger and exaggerated.

"I, a senior, was hit by your husband. He denied me the respect I deserved. A boy like you with good breeding does not deserve a crude husband like—"

Mo Lihua’s rant was abruptly dismissed.

"—cut this bullshit, Guild master Mo."

In face value, it sounds something that would come out of Shen Yuan’s mouth but to their surprise, it was Bai Tingfeng!

"I am perfectly aware of how you raised your fist first and tried to hit Yuan. My husband is just defending himself. How dare you make him out as the villain when it was you who antagonized him first!"

Bai Tingfeng angrily hit his fist on the table, causing a loud thump.

Admiral Wu Jin was visibly shocked. He is the only one at the table who knows nothing about this piping hot tea so, it’s understandable that he looks like he just took a caffeine shot.

Admiral Wu Jin was about to ask a hypothetical "Really?" when suddenly, the mana and strong pheromones leaking from Bai Tingfeng intensified even more.

Bai Tingfeng’s anger reached the boiling point.

"You treated me like an idiot and bullied my husband. Shall I take this as the Mo family’s intent to sever the friendship with our Bai family?!"

Shaken by the escalating tension, Mo Zhu tried to pacify Bai Tingfeng.

"Brother Tingfeng, my mother does not mean anything against you. She’s just concerned—"

"—I am speaking with your Mom. Can you stay silent for once?" Bai Tingfeng firmly shut Mo Zhu down, causing the latter to blush and teared up.

This is the first time Bai Tingfeng treated Mo Zhu so roughly. Mo Zhu had never felt so heartbroken before this. He wanted to stand up and excuse himself to find someplace he could cry his heart out.

Unfortunately for him, he’s one of the helpless people affected by Bai Tingfeng’s domineering presence.

The best he could do was look down.

Oblivious to the fact that he just broke someone’s heart. He continued to pour his suppressed anger at Mo Lihua.

"Shen Yuan and I are a couple. We are one unit. If you think I wouldn’t defend my husband when you blatantly subject him to hostility, then you are dead wrong. I don’t mind adding an old family friend to the list of my enemy. I can afford it." Bai Tingfeng furrowed his sword eyebrow and spat with such anger. "How about you, can you afford it?"

"This..." Bai Tingfeng came in too strong that Mo Lihua lost her original sassy façade. It was beyond her that Bai Tingfeng would talk to him like this. She looked at his brokenhearted son and then at Chairman Mao.

No one is taking her side.

Feeling that she was already defeated, Mo Lihua hit the brakes and looked at the situation with a more rational mind.

Never mind not marrying into the Bai family and breaking his son’s heart. Once she ruins the existing friendship with the Bai family, then that means she’s also hurting the interest of her entire family.

The influence, connections, businesses, and everything their Mo family got from cooperating with the Bai family for decades will crumble to specks of dust if she continues messing things up.

Mo Lihua hates Shen Yuan now. She abhors him to the moon and back. However, as much as she loves to wipe that shit-eating smirk on that omega’s face, she cannot afford to do that unfortunately.

The Bai family is much stronger than them in the hunting industry, and based on the current trend, it is much safer to maintain an amicable relationship with Bai Tingfeng, the man who singlehandedly slayed the S-class boss monster, the Eight-Headed Hydra.

"Okay, I—"

She was about to give a half-hearted apology when Shen Yuan’s loud sound of smacking his lips blocked her from doing so.

The spotlight suddenly shifted to him.

It caused the current tension to slightly subside but none of that seemed to matter for Shen Yuan as he emptied the glass of wine.

"That tasted sweeter than I expected." He commented much to everyone’s astonishment.

It took too long for him to realize that eyes were on him, and when he finally did, he just said to his husband, "You know what? Tone down a bit, Tingfeng. Look around you. You’re making other people uncomfortable with your energy. Can’t you see other’s make-up is already turning cakey?"

Shen Yuan touched his man’s arm and gave it a gentle kneading like a coquettish cat.

"I love watching you defend my honor and for that, I so wanted to give you a deep, passionate kiss. However, I don’t want to make other people feel more comfortable. Let’s just enjoy the night, darling."

Now everyone was speechless seeing how casual Shen Yuan was even in this confrontation.

"Uh, are you aware that you are half of the reason this is all happening?" Admiral Wu Jin couldn’t help but ask the omega beside him.

Shen Yuan snorted and dismissively waved his hand, "Of course, I know. I wanted to stop my husband earlier because I already told him that I liked fighting my fight."

Shen Yuan reached Bai Tingfeng’s hand.

"But you know what? I just realized that if I can get angry and agitated for his sake, then I don’t have any right to stop him from feeling the same thing. Being a couple is all about sharing the feelings, interests, values and everything we deem comfortable of sharing to our other half."

"And as it turns out, I don’t mind sharing enemies with my husband." The celestial fox spirit flashed a mocking smirk at Mo Lihua.

Angry but finally mindful, Mo Lihua smiled back. However, it’s very fake.

She made a loud and exaggerated sigh, "I apologize for today’s blunder. I let my bruised ego get the best of me."

Shen Yuan’s reaction remained blank. He didn’t respond or do anything to humor Mo Lihua. Instead, he caressed Bai Tingfeng’s arm some more. Only then did Bai Tingfeng recall his pheromones and energy, finally giving everybody a chance to breathe and relax.

Mo Zhu looked up and saw their silent gesture. Something flashed in his eyes. He weakly stood up and excused himself.

"I will go to the powder room for a moment."

Watching her son retreat, Mo Lihua felt indignation. Despite that, she still stopped herself from verbally attacking Shen Yuan. She pretended to check her phone and said, "The prime minister is finally here. I will go check on him."

She stood up and left.

"Hooo!" Chairman Mao let out a loud, exaggerated exhale. "Drama at the beginning of the night. I guess we have an intense night ahead of us."
