The scene of a huge olive colored anaconda jumping at Chino scared everyone in the area especially the child's family.
[XIAO JING!!!]
"CHINO!!!"
"YOUNG MASTER!!!"
"NOOOO!!!"
The soldiers for Unit Alpha didn't hesitate to run out of the mansion and grabbed on the snake's limbs. Some survivors jump to help as well. The old butler activated his strengthening ability and blocked in front of Chino without hesitation of throwing his life away for his young master. He hugged the young master intending to black the attack with his own body.
Lou Lan screamed as he activated his water ability covering Chino, Oreo and the other child within a water barrier. Wang Lei did the same thing and created a wind barrier around Chino.
No one noticed but at this moment Cao Junye's purple eyes completely turned pitch black and a small black snowflake tattoo appeared under his left eye. A sudden surge of darkness element surrounds his body attacking the huge snake with a strike that is supposed to be beyond his current level. Black spikes suddenly pierced through the body of the huge snake and bloody holes were made all over its limbs.
HISSS!!! SHAAA!!! A loud agonizing shriek came from the huge anaconda.
Everyone was shocked by this scene. They were all dumbfounded and were left speechless by this scene. They've watched their own general be covered with black fog like aura added with a tremendous dangerous yet pressuring presence excluded from him. It made them unable to breath properly and gasp for air.
Their suffering was nothing under the cold and hatred filled eyes of their general which now glares at the huge snake. He reached out his hands towards the direction of the snake. Following his gesture a black fog changes shape into a hand which grabs the huge head of the anaconda.
A cold yet hoarse voice echoes in the whole area. The snake tried to struggle but the black hand that grabs its head was too powerful from him to be freed.
"Bold enough to try harming this deity's son for a mere worm. Audacious!" said Cao Junye no… it was Ye Xiajie's soul who had forcefully awakened in time to save his son.
With a grip of his hand, the head of the snake had exploded like a rotten watermelon. A blood rain falls from the sky for a few minutes covering everyone under with crimson shade. Everyone, especially those ordinary survivors, had felt fear towards this supposed human general. They were shivering in Cao Junye's presence when those pairs of obsidian orbs fell on them, they couldn't stop their body from trembling. This shows how terrifying the general figure is at this moment.
Within those black orbs, there is no hint of emotions at all. No sympathy, feelings or care for living beings. Only indifference in the presence of life and death could be seen. Among everyone in the area only Chino's big eyes didn't show fear like everyone else nor hesitation to approach in fear of being rude like those Wang Lei's eyes. His eyes only show immense yearning as his tears even fell from his adorable face. Chino started struggling from the old butler's embrace.
He tearfully reached out his small hands towards his father. Even without his daddy telling him who this was, Chino knows that the Cao Junye right now is indeed his real father.
"Father… FATHER!!~~ Wuaaa~~~"
The old butler could only let go of his struggling young master. Everyone watched as the young three year old boy ran towards Cao Junye who had no expression on his face. The latter caught the small child who suddenly jumped on him. Letting those small arms wrapped around his neck.
The general hugs the little boy gently in his embrace, patting his small back in easement. His lips were a bit curled up at this moment as if he wasn't that demon who kills that snake in such a gruesome way.
"Father… father sniff~ you woke up~ Xiao Jing misses you so much~~" whimpered the crying child.
"Hm~ father misses our baby as well." said Ye Xiajie as he kissed the cheeks of his son.
At this moment someone suddenly appeared in front of the father and son. It was Xueya who was looking around in worry the moment he saw his son about to be harmed by that huge snake. He was about to teleport to that place when he suddenly saw his husband lose it. Xueya immediately noticed the imprint that suddenly appeared on his and Cao Junye's face.
Once the black snowflake appeared on Xueya's face, he knew that his husband's soul woke up in this world. But based on the situation he had seen, his husband forcefully woke his soul. The darkness element he used just now isn't a normal element as well. Only then Xueya knew that his husband just used his real qi to save their son.
But using his real qi in his current vessel is not possible. Their current vessel is too weak to bear the true qi they possess. He knew that his husband would suffer a backlash for doing so. He only used his true qi for a few seconds; the backlash would most likely be internal injuries. But what worries him the most is that the heavenly laws of this star would definitely notice that his husband is an outside soul. Xueya had to appear before him to protect him from the heavenly laws' wrath.
Ximen Xueya's sudden appearance stunned everyone in the area, especially those who recognized him. Only Cao Junye who is Ye Xiajie as at this moment smiled at his wife.
"You've come, baby~" said Ye Xiajie.
Chino cheerfully calls, "Daddy!!"
Xueya kissed his son's cheeks as he gently wiped his tears. Then he looked at his husband's obviously pale face though there's a devious smirk on his lips.
Sigh~ Xueya suddenly covered his son's eyes and kissed Ye Xiajie out of nowhere. At first the latter was caught off guard by his wife's sudden intimate gesture. When he feels the true qi which was passed to him through the kiss, Ye Xiajie openly welcomes his wife's eagerness.
An unfathomable fire of desire was lit in his body, burning all restraint over himself. From passive to active, Ye Xiajie hooks his wife's soft tongue to clash with him and taste the sweetness of his wife's lips and true qi.
The warm qi enters his mouth which spreads throughout his whole body instantly repairing his internal injuries which is the cause of the backlash of using his real qi with such his weak body. Until his wife's capabilities of instantly merging his soul with his current vessel the moment he woke up, Cao Junye needed a long time before his current soul and his soul fragment could completely merge. Only when the merging is complete 100% then he could freely use his true qi. Just now he overdid himself just to save their son from danger.
This kiss is just a cover for his wife to help him heal his internal injuries. Ye Xiajie could only enjoy this intimate gesture between lovers while enduring the pain of his internal organs curing at a fast pace which is beyond normal means. The feeling of his body and his soul getting nourished made him comfortable.
Xueya is only giving Junye his true qi. While the latter use the former's given qi to heal himself. Ximen Xueya had no current capabilities of healing someone other than himself.
Cao Junye's hand moved and wrapped it around Xueya's waist, desperately squeezed him to his embrace, then he kissed harder even biting those soft and sweet lips brushing his own.
This turbulent kiss made Xueya desires sparked but he knew that the place and time doesn't allow him to indulge. Moreover his son is with him.
'That's right their son is with them!?' Thoughts of Xueya at this moment.
Remembering that their beloved son is with them, Xueya could only reluctantly push away his husband. The line of saliva that connected their lips left a sensual feeling between the two. Those who saw the scene of their general and his wife's affair suddenly blushed as they lowered their heads in embarrassment.
Cao Junye who hasn't had enough, grip his wife's waist. "Baby?"
"There's a child and…" Xueya suddenly whispered. "Heal yourself first in the spring."
In his mind Xueya spoke with his system, "Look after them inside the space. I need to arrange few things outside first."
[I will host.]
When Xueya touched the snowflake earring on his ears Cao Junye and Chino disappeared all of the sudden. Seeing this most soldiers reacted in shock but didn't speak a word of rudeness towards the man who made their general and young master disappear all of the sudden. Instead most of the soldiers had saluted and lowered their heads to greet him.
"Greetings to Master Ximen!" said the soldiers.
Ximen Xueya nodded his head slightly to return the soldiers greeting. Lou Lan jumped for him for a hug which he didn't mind. According to the memories he received Lou Lan is the original's only close friend.
Lou Lan, "Xueya~ Where were you all this time? I thought… I thought something bad happened to you when you suddenly gone missing~ Wuwu~"
"Don't cry. You look ugly. I was busy lately… Now let go." said Xueya. Lou Lan stops hugging his friend knowing his hate for close contact with others. Only Chino and Cao Junye were exceptions to his aversion.
Wang Lei and Uncle Wu had approached him as well. The former acted his role and saluted at Xueya like the rest of the soldiers.
"Salute! Pleasant meeting Master Ximen. I would like to ask where did you bring our general to?" asked Wang Lei humbly.
Xueya replied, "Somewhere safe. I will bring you and the rest of your unit as well for a moment."
"Understood." responded Wang Lei.
Then Xueya moved his gaze on the smiling old butler who appeared beside him.
Uncle Wu spoke, "Master Xueya, it's great to see you."
He patted the old butler's shoulder with gratitude. Xueya had seen what this old man had done during that moment when his son was in danger. He was indeed willing to exchange his life for his son like the rest of the soldiers.
"Good work. Uncle Wu and everyone thank you for saving my Chino. I would repay this life debt in the future." said Ximen Xueya.
His gaze slightly turned gentle when he looked at the soldiers who tried their best to save and protect his son in the life and death situation. Xueya might be a cold hearted person by nature except for those he cares for. But he is never the type to ignore debts he has from strangers.
Uncle Wu and the rest of the soldiers happily smile when they've heard Ximen Xueya's promise. With his words they knew that this person would definitely not forget what they did for his son. Those brave survivors who helped in that moment were thanked by Ximen Xueya as well.
Though they didn't know who he was, just base from him suddenly appearing, making the general and the young master suddenly disappear and the reverent actions the soldiers showed towards him. They knew that this man had an important standing and his strength is enigmatic. They would be safer with him as well.
Xueya looked at the smiling survivors who stood beside the soldiers who wore the same expression.
"Bring over your family with you. Only your family and people who have close relationships with you can come." said Xueya.
The survivor understood instantly the meaning of the beautiful man's words.
Xueya spoke, "Uncle Wu separates the families who help just now to those who don't. I am not running a charity. I'm not obligated to save those who I don't owe anything."
"I will do as you order but the rest are…"
"Those who didn't help I would bring them to the Hope Base. The destination for you guys is my place." said Xueya as he created two teleportation formations.
One connected to the road near to Hope Base in Z District and the other transfers people directly inside the Ximen Mountain. The soldiers would be brought inside his dimensional space where he put his husband and son temporarily while those survivors who he owed a debt with would be teleported to the Ximen Mountain for Lu Meng and Su Wan to be taken care off.
Xueya instructed, "Those survivors who I owe on the left. The rest on the right."
The soldiers under Wang Lei and Uncle Wu supervised the whole process. They didn't allow those other survivors to jump on the other circle lest they angered their General's wife.
There are lots of survivors complaining about the difference in treatment. Since they didn't know who Ximen Xueya was. They wildly run their mouth without fear. As they say ignorance is a bliss.
What is with this unfairness!?
Why treat others like this!?
Aren't we human as well?
You guys are with the military, it is your job to secure our safety.
Why are you listening to this man who seems like a slut who seduce the gen–
AAAHHHH!
He killed her!!!
The woman who spoke last suddenly turned into an ice statue. No one knows whether the woman is still alive or not. The survivors who were standing at the right teleportation circle screamed at this scene especially when they saw the beautiful man flick the woman's ice statue which broke into bloody fragmented ice mixed with blood and broken flesh.
Xueya's cold and indifferent voice echoes in the area.
"Speak more nonsense. I will throw you all in the middle of the city where there are countless zombies to feast on your rotten mouth and useless body."
The screaming in the area was too loud which irritated Xueya. He had to use his other ability to shut them up. He used Kotodama and ordered them.
{Close your mouth and stand still for 5 minutes.}
As if receiving an irrefutable order, the survivors on the right circle all clamped their mouths shut unanimously and their bodies stiffened against their will. They look at Xueya with reddening or tear filled eyes as if looking at a monster. They had never heard this kind of ability.
NMM! HMMM!
Muffled sounds are the only thing that comes out from their close mouth. Their bodies couldn't move by their wills again. This time those who were unaffected gasped in astonishment. No one expected that Xueya would be this powerful. His ability is even enough to force others to comply with his commands even against their wills.
Lou Lan whispered, "Is this… an ability as well?!"
"Must be… A mental type special ability." replied Wang Lei.
Uncle Wu smiles and says, "Haha~ haven't heard of the word Kotodama before? It's a superior ability to control even someone's soul using the medium of words. As long the caster's will is stronger than the target it is almost impossible to defy his commands."
The soldiers reactions:
Fuck! the general's wife is so Godly!
Space and Mental abilities!?
I heard from the young master that the general's wife could control the Ice element as well.
Damn! three abilities!? The General could only use two!
Amazing! He is so powerful!
At this moment Xueya ignored the raucous voice behind him and spoke to the survivors standing silently at the left teleportation circle. He was explaining things for them.
"I will teleport you directly to my territory. You will meet two men named Lu Meng and Su Wan. They would arrange a place for you to stay in my land. As well as explain the things for you. Don't be afraid. Since I owe you a life, I would not treat you badly. My territory is the safest place to live. You would be provided with everything you need." explained Xueya.
"Thank you… sir." A brave young man spoke.
Xueya replied, "It should be thank you for risking your lives to protect my son. Because of that I would keep you safe as well."
After a while Ximen Xueya activated both teleportation circles. Once the light had lit up the men standing within the circle disappeared. As they were meant to be, each group was transferred to their designated locations. Once the others disappeared the soldiers look at Ximen Xueya with bewildered expression. They couldn't understand why he didn't let them join the group on the left before he transferred them.
"I will bring you to another place first. Once your general wakes up I will bring you to Ximen Mountain." said Xueya after that he pulled the rest of them into his dimensional space without even allowing them to ask any questions.
