Chapter 153 Dumping The Corpses At The Roadside



He kept himself at a high altitude, ensuring his presence remained unnoticed, appearing to others as nothing more than a distant dot against the sky.

"Let\'s find a suitable spot to dispose of Peter and Henry\'s bodies," Yuan muttered contemplatively as he peered down from his elevated vantage point.

Utilizing his divine sense, Yuan scanned the village for an inconspicuous location where the corpses could be left, ideally a spot with occasional pedestrian traffic that would lead to their discovery.

After a brief search, Yuan identified a secluded area shrouded by bushes, shielded from prying eyes and situated away from residences. It seemed like the perfect location to leave the lifeless forms of Peter and Henry. 

Yuan estimated that every 40 to 50 minutes, a few passersby would traverse the vicinity, ensuring that the bodies would eventually be found.

[Host, have you found a suitable spot for the bodies?] Nora\'s voice echoed in his mind.

"Yes, I\'ve located a suitable location. It should remain unnoticed," Yuan responded confidently.

[Impressive choice! It\'s discreet enough, but you should remain cautious just in case.] Nora acknowledged Yuan\'s decision, her understanding clear as their shared vision depicted the chosen area.

"Time to dispose of them and return to the Monroe manor," Yuan mumbled, descending from the sky at a breathtaking speed. Hovering just a meter above the ground, his landing was so swift that it escaped the notice of onlookers.

With practiced efficiency, Yuan retrieved the corpses from his system storage and gently placed them by the roadside, ensuring their visibility to anyone passing by.

"Now, let\'s head back to the Monroe family. Rose must be worried, and my mothers and the girls are likely awaiting my return," Yuan remarked to himself before launching into motion at a blistering pace, leaving no chance for anyone to detect his departure.

Meanwhile, within the Monroe manor, Rose\'s concern for Yuan grew. Though aware of his formidable strength and his intent to deal with Henry and his servant, worry still gnawed at her heart, longing for his safe return.

Madam Layla observed the deep concern etched on Rose\'s face and couldn\'t help but be amused by her obvious love for Yuan. She placed her hands on Rose\'s shoulders, adopting a soothing tone.

"Don\'t worry, Rose. Yuan is a strong man, and he\'ll return to us soon. Instead of fretting, be glad that he\'s dealing with those two idiots for your sake," Madam Layla reassured her with a gentle smile.

"I know, but still..." Rose\'s voice trailed off, interrupted by Xi Meili\'s cheerful exclamation from behind.

"Look! Hubby is already back!" Xi Meili\'s excitement rang out, prompting everyone to look upward.

Their eyes followed Xi Meili\'s gesture, and they beheld Yuan descending gracefully from the sky on his sword, a serene smile adorning his face. His clothes were barely disheveled, bearing only a few traces of blood stains, a testament to his effortless victory.

\'Mere minutes have passed, and he\'s already returned? He truly is on a different level,\' Madam Layla marveled inwardly, her astonishment clear.

\'Yuan is incredible! He dispatched both Henry and his vile servant Peter in such a short time. He\'s like my knight in shining armor!\' Julie\'s heart raced with excitement, her cheeks tinged with a rosy hue.

\'He looks so majestic and handsome as he descends from the sky on his sword, almost like a divine being. Oh goodness, why am I thinking such things at a time like this? This is so embarrassing!\' Ava blushed furiously, her eyes fixed on Yuan\'s charismatic presence.

"Apologies for the delay; it took a bit longer than expected," Yuan\'s voice carried a warm smile as he touched down on the ground, his sword in hand.

Without wasting a moment, Rose hurried to him, her voice tinged with concern. "Did you take care of them? Are you hurt anywhere? Henry is a third-circle mage, after all."

Yuan was genuinely taken aback. Henry, a mage? He hadn\'t displayed any magical abilities during their encounter, nor had he put up a fight.

\'Could that fool really be a mage?\' Yuan couldn\'t help but doubt, finding it hard to reconcile the cowardly begging he had witnessed with the prowess of a third-circle mage.

Yuan\'s astonishment was shared by his two mothers, Anna and Grave, his elder sister Lily, and his two beloveds, Emma and Xi Meili. The idea of Henry, an idiotic coward, being a third-circle mage was baffling.

"Are you serious? That idiot, a third-circle mage? That\'s impossible! He didn\'t even try to defend himself, let alone use any spells. This is beyond perplexing!" Yuan exclaimed, his disbelief evident as he recalled Henry\'s pitiful pleas before his demise.

Rose wasn\'t taken aback by Yuan\'s disbelief; she had anticipated this reaction from him.

"It\'s the truth! And why would you think I would lie to my future husband anyway? Hehe!" Rose responded with a chuckle, her eyes twinkling.

Despite her assurance, Yuan still struggled to accept that someone as foolish as Henry could be a third-circle mage.

"There\'s no need to be surprised! Henry\'s family is involved in trade, and their connections have granted them access to rare potions. These potions enhance mana circulation, enlarging the mana core and accelerating absorption speed. It\'s a shortcut to power," Madam Layla explained when she noticed Yuan\'s puzzled expression.

\'Recruiting help from money and influential connections... I suppose that\'s one way to become a mage,\' Yuan thought to himself, finally understanding how Henry had achieved such a status.

"If you\'re interested, I can acquire those potions for all of you," Madam Layla offered, assuming Yuan might want to further enhance his strength.

However, she was unaware that these potions were useless for Yuan and his group. They weren\'t mages or knights; they were cultivators who didn\'t rely on mana.

"Thank you for your offer, but those potions wouldn\'t benefit us. We don\'t possess mana in our bodies; in fact, we rely on a different source of power," Yuan replied with an appreciative smile, declining her offer.

The Monroe family fell into a stunned silence upon hearing this revelation. How could they be so strong and defeat formidable foes without any mana? The concept seemed preposterous to them.

Yuan and his wives had expected this reaction, so they smiled knowingly at the Monroes\' astonishment.

\'It makes sense that I couldn\'t detect mana in them. But how can they possess such strength without it?\' Rose pondered, her gaze fixed on Yuan and his wives.

Similarly, Madam Layla and the others were grappling with the same perplexing question. They couldn\'t fathom how Yuan and his wives, without mana, could exhibit such incredible abilities and strength.

After a moment of contemplation, Madam Layla voiced her curiosity, "If you lack mana, how do you explain your exceptional strength and unique abilities?"

The question hung in the air, a valid inquiry about their superhuman capabilities that defied explanation. Their feats included single-handedly annihilating hordes of monsters and defeating a near S-rank creature with astonishing ease. It was inconceivable that they possessed no mana.

Yuan\'s expression turned serious as he responded, "We would appreciate it if you refrain from probing too deeply into our strength. It\'s a complex matter, Madam Layla, and I hope you understand our need to keep certain aspects confidential."

Yuan had no intention of revealing the intricacies of cultivation or the superior spiritual energy they harnessed. The secrets of their power were best left untold.

"Given your discomfort discussing your strength, I won\'t press further. I respect your privacy," Madam Layla acknowledged, recognizing Yuan\'s hesitation to delve into the matter.

"Thanks for your understanding, Madam Layla..." Yuan responded, a smile gracing his lips a moment later.

"What Madam Layla? You should start calling me Mother-in-law from now on... Hehehe!" Madam Layla teased playfully, her voice carrying a light-hearted tone. Yuan\'s acceptance of her daughters as his future wives led her to consider him as her son-in-law from that point forward.

Rose, Ava, and Julies blushed uncontrollably upon hearing this, their reactions revealing their feelings.

Yuan\'s wives shared a soft chuckle, finding the display of blushes quite amusing.

A minute later, Rose gently advised Yuan, "Yuan, you should change your clothes; they\'re stained with the two idiots\' blood. The servants will take care of washing them."

"Now that you mention it, I didn\'t even notice that my clothes were stained with blood. Luckily, I refrained from hugging any of you, or I might have dirtied your clothes... Hehehe!" Yuan\'s smile grew as he glanced at Rose and his wives.

"Pervert..." Rose murmured under her breath, her cheeks tinged with a rosy hue.

"Xi Meili doesn\'t mind giving you a hug, Hubby!" Xi Meili chimed in innocently, her voice filled with excitement at the prospect.

"Darling! Me too..." Grace added shamelessly, her lips parting in a seductive manner as she attempted to entice him.

"Hehe! Thanks, but there\'s no need. I was just teasing you now..." Yuan chuckled as he addressed them.

Following that, Yuan stepped into the manor, and the others followed suit, trailing behind him.

Following that, Yuan retracted his colossal sword, Empyreal Oblivion, into his system\'s storage and proceeded to step into the manor.

The Monroe family once again found themselves astonished, witnessing the enormous sword in Yuan\'s grasp seemingly dissolve into nothingness, as if it had never existed in the first place.

\'Where did that massive sword go? How could it just vanish like that?\' Madam Layla\'s thoughts echoed with surprise, this being the second time she had witnessed such an extraordinary feat. The first instance was when Yuan had materialized the sword seemingly out of thin air.

Similar thoughts stirred among the other members of the Monroe household, though they collectively opted not to voice their inquiries, instead choosing to follow Yuan indoors.

Once inside, Yuan turned to his wives and said, "You guys have a nice chat while I freshen up with a relaxing bath."

"Alright, but don\'t take too long..." Lily\'s voice carried a note of playful warning as she spoke to Yuan.

"I\'ll keep that in mind, Big Sis," Yuan replied, a warm smile curving his lips, and then he made his way out of the scene.

"Big sis?" Rose\'s voice held a hint of confusion, her words a quiet murmur as Yuan\'s figure disappeared. A puzzled expression graced her features as she exchanged glances with the others.
