Chapter 207: Shangguan Yulan’s Decision

Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Shangguan Yulan’s Decision

The thought appeared in their minds.

The next moment, they all froze!

’What were we just thinking?’

’We must be crazy!’

After all, Lord Ye’s child had only just been born yesterday.

In other words, the child was only two days old.

Not two years old!

For a child like that to be able to sit so securely on the Black Wolf’s back...

How monstrous was that?!

"Lord Ye’s genes are just too powerful!"

"Heavens, no wonder so many beautiful women want to marry Lord Ye. It’s worth it for these genes alone!"

"This child has a limitless future. With Lord Ye’s help, becoming a Mutant will probably be a piece of cake."

As the last person spoke, everyone nodded in agreement. If someone couldn’t even become a Mutant under the guidance of a veteran Alchemist like Lord Ye, they would be an absolute failure.

After they finished speaking, Ye Chen, who was on the Black Wolf, looked at them with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Then, he clutched his sachet, as if afraid they would try to snatch it from him.

But that still didn’t seem right.

He opened the sachet.

He took out the Star Level Exotic Beast Crystal Core from inside and hugged it.

Cradling it in his arms, he began to absorb its energy.

BOOM!

In that instant, everyone who saw Ye Chen’s actions was completely dumbfounded!

So, the sachet tied to his body actually contained a Star Level Exotic Beast Crystal Core!

’What does Lord Ye mean by this?!’

’And what does it mean that Ye Chen is hugging that Exotic Beast Crystal Core now?!’

This!

Then, one of the Patriarchs’ eyes widened and his voice began to tremble. He spoke slowly, "Could it be... that Lord Ye’s son is an Innate Mutant?"

Innate Mutant!

The moment he said it, everyone seemed to turn to stone. They all stared at Ye Chen as if he were some kind of monster!

If he wasn’t a monster, then what was?!

Monstrous, simply monstrous!

Lord Ye’s bloodline is nothing short of monstrous!

While they stood there in shock, Little Heizi glanced at them, then proudly puffed out its chest and trotted forward.

Little Ye Chen was also on Little Heizi’s back, looking at this brand new world.

Meanwhile, the White Wolf looked at Little Heizi and let out a few low howls.

Little Heizi then nodded.

It then headed off in another direction.

「A short while later.」

They arrived outside the Eighth King General’s office.

The White Wolf looked at the window.

Then, it howled a few times.

Inside, the Eighth King General was working.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of her White Wolf.

’Ever since my White Wolf was lured away by Ye Yunyi’s Little Heizi,’ she mused, ’it stopped living in the forest and has been staying at Ye Yunyi’s manor instead.’

She put down what she was working on.

Then walked towards the window.

She opened the window.

And saw Little Heizi and the White Wolf below, both looking up at her.

Then!

She saw Ye Chen below, hugging the Star Level Exotic Beast Crystal Core!

’The little guy is here too?!’

WHOOSH!

The next moment!

Shangguan Yulan leaped directly from the window.

She landed, took one look at the tiny figure on Little Heizi’s back, and immediately scooped Ye Chen into her arms.

The moment Ye Chen was in her arms, Shangguan Yulan felt his softness. That, combined with his milky baby scent, made her heart nearly melt.

Ye Chen, however, was startled.

He seemed to think Shangguan Yulan was there to snatch his Crystal Core!

He started to struggle!

And then!

Shangguan Yulan froze!

’This is...!’

’What kind of strength is this?!’

’He’s two days old?!’

’Huh?!’

’Two days old and already this strong... this has to be Golden Level strength!’

’What the hell?!’

In that instant, Shangguan Yulan couldn’t stop herself from cursing inwardly.

’This... this... this...!’

’Golden Level right from birth!’

’She knew Ye Yunyi was a monster, that he was terrifying!’

’She knew he was a veteran Alchemist!’

’But this is just ridiculous!’

Ordinary newborns, even the children of High-level Mutants, aren’t Innate Mutants!

Innate Mutants are already the chosen ones, favored by the heavens.

But this one was even more monstrous.

Born directly as a Golden Level Mutant!

For a moment, Shangguan Yulan felt like she was going to faint.

If he wasn’t the hope of humanity, then who was?

Shangguan Yulan held Little Ye Chen, soothing him.

She then carried him back up to her office.

As she carried him up, she started thinking.

’Ye Chen’s mother, Zhou Huaiwei, is just an ordinary person with no powers, right?’

’And even she could give birth to an Innate Mutant like Ye Chen.’

’So what about the other women in his manor?!’

’Wouldn’t that mean...!’

’The children they bear would be even more monstrous!’

’Innate Diamond Mutants?!’

’Huh?!’

’What if it were someone of an even higher Level...’

’A child with Ye Yunyi...’

For a moment, Shangguan Yulan found herself imagining it was her.

’If I had a child with Ye Yunyi, what would happen?’

’An Innate Star Level Mutant?’

’Or perhaps...’

’An Innate King Level?’

As her thoughts spiraled, Shangguan Yulan genuinely felt faint.

Then she calmed down and mentally cursed herself.

’What in the world am I thinking?’ she chided herself.

’Who’d want to have a baby with that guy?’

As Shangguan Yulan was lost in thought, she felt Ye Chen struggling again.

She then put him down.

Once he was put down, Ye Chen looked back at Shangguan Yulan as if she were a bandit.

He frantically scrambled away from her.

"Hey! Don’t run off!"

THUD!

With a dull thud, the table leg snapped where Ye Chen had run into it!

Shangguan Yulan: "........"

’Huh?!’

Then, Ye Chen continued to move away from Shangguan Yulan.

THUD!

CRASH!

CRACK!

A few moments later, Shangguan Yulan’s once-tidy office was in shambles.

It was utter chaos.

Ye Chen was still scampering around.

Watching the scene unfold, Shangguan Yulan was completely dumbstruck!

’My heavens!’

’What a little terror!’

However, she also knew that Ye Chen was only running wild because he felt insecure.

After thinking for a moment, she hurried to the storage room.

A moment later, she returned carrying a Star Level Exotic Beast Crystal Core.

She placed it in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen immediately quieted down.

He looked up at Shangguan Yulan, then his gaze shifted to the Star Level Exotic Beast Crystal Core.

Shangguan Yulan nudged the Crystal Core toward the little guy.

Ye Chen seemed to understand that Shangguan Yulan had no malicious intent.

He put down the Crystal Core in his hands.

He staggered over and hugged Shangguan Yulan’s long, slender legs.

Well now!

Shangguan Yulan felt the soft warmth.

’This little guy...’

’He’s just like his father.’

’His eyes light up at the sight of treasure.’

’I can’t let this little guy learn from his father,’ Shangguan Yulan thought. ’One wife-collecting maniac in this world is more than enough. If this child stays by Ye Yunyi’s side and is constantly influenced by him... who knows what he’ll turn into in the future.’

"Come on, I’m going to have a word with your father."

Shangguan Yulan said, picking Ye Chen up.

Ye Chen put one Crystal Core into the sachet.

Then he hugged the other one to his chest.

Shangguan Yulan watched this and thought, ’The apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree.’

This little guy had only just been born, and he had already inherited some of Ye Yunyi’s traits!
