Kapitel 21: Episode 3.9 Daddy the Storm
What followed the thunderous cracking sound of the concrete was a silence like no other.
It was like the tail end of the storm had passed, and now, they were facing the calm eye of the storm.
Actually, that is not far from reality because Shen Yuan's viciousness is in full throttle.
"Speak, you scaled bastard," Shen Yuan tightened his grasp around his attacker's neck.
The man struggled despite his coughing fits.
All of a sudden, Shen Yuan felt a dull pain in his arms, so he looked at it, and there he saw a thick syringe injected into his skin.
"Fucking hell, you bastard really dares! See if I don't make your gray matter bloom like lilies," Enraged, the celestial fox spirit raised his other fist coated with violent mana, ready to hammer the man's skull open.
The air becomes warm and erratic as if they are taking the side of the one towering over the heteromorphic alpha awakener.
"This is bad. Mister Shen is gravely agitated!" cried the experienced medic.
Everyone knows that if none of them stop the rampaging omega, they will witness something gruesome.
However, they are powerless before the condensing violent mana swirling around Shen Yuan.
Right now, the omega in front of them is the hurricane itself!
This massive commotion did not go unnoticed by many.
Unbeknownst to Shen Yuan, there are media folks silently capturing his every movement in the camera.
He can't afford to make a mistake; most of all, he mustn't show his tails and ears!
"Daddy, wait! That man is not necessarily a bad guy!" a crisp voice of a little boy pierced their hearing.
All of a sudden, the tempest vanished, and so did the overpowering presence of the omega, who became the personification of their fears in the past minute.
But they did not breathe a sigh of relief. Their eyes are still glued to Shen Yuan.
Who knows, maybe this is the last minute before the storm's eye completely passes?
But contrary to their expectation, what they were dreading did not happen.
"Yanyan, explain to Daddy, please," Shen Yuan suddenly asked gently, and the spectators could not believe what they heard.
"Is this omega for real? He showed all that rage and murderousness, yet the next minute, he spoke as if asking what's for breakfast?
Like, who does that?" Most of them thought.
However, the ones directly facing Shen Yuan could clearly see that the fire in his cold blue eyes was still ranging on.
They found it hard to look at him, so they had no choice but to lower their heads.
Only one individual could look directly at the omega who demonstrated his explosive strength, and it was the little boy who mirrors the likeness of Shen Yuan.
"Okay! Yanyan will report!" The little boy energetically said.
"Do not move around. Let that big brother treat your injuries, okay?" Shen Yuan reminded and instructed at the same time.
He did not care that the people around him were internally labeling them as weirdos.
Well, it was a reasonable opinion because while most of them treat this incident as a field day, the father and son duo is acting like it was a walk in the park!
"Yanyan heard from the baddie leader who wears a hoodie that this older brother is his puppet daddy. They said they planted a bug in his brain so that bad guy could control him!"
While listening, Shen Yuan forcefully pluck the syringe out of his arm. He isn't sure if he should be thankful that this scaly man missed an artery. But because he missed, that makes it even more painful!
"Bloody Hell!" He internally cursed.
Coincidentally, this pain reminded him of a fleeting scene in the manhua. Shen Yuan correlated it to what Yanyan said, and things started to make sense to him.
"Are you okay, Daddy?" Yanyan asked when he saw that Shen Yuan's eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
"I am fine, baby. Your information is totally accurate. Yanyan is smart," Shen Yuan complimented the little boy.
"Is that all they said?"
Yanyan shook his head, and without being told to, he assumed being a little news reporter.
"They also said that puppets are not smart. They cannot do complicated things. That is why the other bad guy is the one who tried to prick Yanyan with a big needle forcefully," the little boy's voice gradually became as faint as a whisper, and in the end, his hand started trembling.
Shen Yuan's pupils constricted due to rage when he witnessed how the little boy struggled.
Obviously, whatever happened inside the minivan caused a psychological shadow on Yanyan, and it fueled his desire to hit those who dared to harm his child!
Yes!
He will now declare that Yanyan is this celestial fox spirit's official son!
"Yanyan, listen to Daddy, okay? Can you close your eyes for a while? No matter what you hear, never open your eyes unless I say so," Shen Yuan instructed.
As a good little son, Yanyan closed his eyes in a heartbeat.
The medic who heard it clearly gathered his courage to speak up because whatever Shen Yuan intended to do, he was certain that he would absolutely do it!
"Mister Shen, the police are just around the corner. If you do something to harm someone, even a criminal, willfully, your actions could be used against you."
"You don't have to worry. I am not that brainless and vicious to do what you were thinking.
If anything, my following actions will save this man's ass." Shen Yuan said while stretching and cracking the bones in his left hand.
"What do you mean?" the concerned man asked. He looked down at the alpha male and saw a worm-like thing squirming inside the man's eyes. "Oh my god!"
"Now, can you do something about that?" Shen Yuan challenged the medic.
"That is a larvae of a Maymoth monster. Even surgeons can't extract that using surgeries because once it detects something is approaching to harm it, it will secret a toxin that will kill its host!" the medic mumbled.
The hairs on his arms are conspicuously standing on its ends.
Maymoth are extremely powerful phantom monsters that induce mass mind control and illusion using their pixie dusts from their wings.
In their larvae form, they are parasitic and live by completely controlling their host until the day they mature.
And once they finally reach that stage, they will forcibly break open their hosts like a cocoon.
A truly ghastly creature.
They are S-Class abominations that are found in rare rainforest terrain dungeons.
The medic trembled. "He is bound to die."
Shen Yuan's eyes turned darkened. "Not if you let me do my thing."
He said that, but the celestial fox spirit is already on the move.
His invisible nine-tails fluttered, and a ball of Heavenly Foxfire appeared behind him to everyone's wonder. It was a peculiar flame mixed in blue and white.
It swirled around like yin and yang at a moderate pace and gradually sped up. It didn't take long until this orb of flame became uniform in color.
"A pure white flame!" Gasps resounded around Shen Yuan, but he minded none of it.
Without any warning, Shen Yuan grabbed the orb of Heavenly Foxfire and slapped it on the man's face. The white foxfire instantly scattered over his head and then down to his entire body.
"Arghhh!" The man let out a disturbing cry of pain.
His whole body convulsed like a worm sprinkled with salt, demonstrating the hellish pain that he was currently feeling.
Anyone who could see the sight was frightened to the very core of their bones.
"What are you doing, Mister Shen? I thought you would help him. You didn't say that your help was euthanizing him!" The medic angrily approached him.
"You do not have the right approach me, human. Stay away," Shen Yuan said in a chilling tone. It abruptly petrified the honest medic because everything about the omega screams danger.
"Before you retaliate against me, try to smell if there is any scent of burned flesh."
The man and the other spectator subconsciously followed Shen Yuan's words, and they noticed that despite the pained wails and the excessive thrashing of the alpha, who was currently consumed by pure white flames, there was no revolting smell of burning flesh.
"That fire is a special fire that will purify all the traces of parasitic Maymoth larvae and eggs present in that man's body," Shen Yuan explained as he stood up.
Heavenly Foxfire isn't named that way because it was a fire created by the fluffy tails of a celestial fox spirit. It was called Heavenly Foxfire because it is a sacred fire that purifies all evil and impurities, as seen by the caster. A fire that burns according to Sen Yuan's will.
And this one right here is a concentrated Heavenly Foxfire of purification.
That is what we did to the damned kidnappers earlier too.
That foxfire was directed to inflict pain on those vile men's souls, and that fire will not stop until he says so. Shen Yuan made them feel like hell without actually killing them.
"You can check his pulse if you want. I can guarantee you that you will not even feel the warmth from that fire," he said as he started undressing his jacket.
Shen Yuan bit his index finger with his sharp fang and used his crimson red blood to write characters and symbols on his jacket's back.
He applied a little of his mana until each character glowed fleetingly.
"Yanyan?" He called his son.
Yanyan only turned his face to Shen Yuan's direction. Not even a fraction of his eyes opened.
"You can open your eyes now," he said. Only then did Bai Shengyan open his eyes and run towards him while calling him Daddy.
God knows how hard he fought not to laugh at this little boy's silliness.
Shen Yuan simply had to stop himself because he could not let his fiery rage subside a little. Not until he finally avenged this innocent child's grievance.
"You did good by listening to my words. But your Daddy isn't done yet. You see, Daddy thinks he can't have a good night's sleep knowing he hasn't heard any apologies from the man who tried to harm you. That's why I decided to face him with your Papa. I will demand him to say sorry to you, Yanyan. And I will not let him go until he feels sorry for himself," Shen Yuan explained.
His voice is as gentle as a night breeze, but his intention disguised in those words is as dark as the starless sky.
Yanyan tugged Shen Yuan's hands and pleaded, "Can't Yanyan go with you, Daddy?"
"We need to keep you somewhere safe, and besides, I will have to leave this jacket of mine, and I need someone who could keep it safe for me. I was wondering if Yanyan could do this little job for me?" Shen Yuan tried to outsmart the child into staying.
He draped his jacket around his son's small body and said, "This jacket has a powerful talisman that uses the sun's power for protection.
It is super precious that only me and Yanyan could come near it. If others tried to steal it, they would burst into smithereens."
The little boy was silent for a moment, and after presumably thinking things through, he nodded his head twice.
"Okay, if Daddy needs someone to look after this jacket. Then Yanyan will do it! I will stay here as Daddy wants it," The little boy responded.
"This little squirt totally got my intention," the celestial fox spirit helplessly sighed.
He ruffled Bai Shengyan's platinum-blonde hair for the last time. He signaled everyone to stay from the ambulance, and they followed like herded sheep.
He snapped his fingers, and a faint yellow dome covered the area around Yanyan.
"I would need your cooperation. Please make sure that none of you will enter that protective dome. Because if someone did—" As if on cue, the head of a decapitated Mantira flew towards them and directly hit the dome.
It didn't even last three seconds, and the tough head of the insect monster was reduced to ashes.
Everyone nodded in fright. No further explanations are needed.
Seeing that none of them have any violent reaction, he finally walks towards the battlefield where Bai Tingfeng and Haichong are fighting.
His eyes turned into slits as the desire to hit the shit out of Haichong.
Fuck not wanting to meddle in the events of the book. What he did to the child was unforgivable. And for his pride as a nine-tailed celestial fox spirit, he wouldn't let this day pass without taking what is due together with interest.
All of a sudden, an idea flashed in his head. Shen Yuan made an unexpected U-turn.
"Hey, uhm, can I borrow any syringe from you?" He asked the medical first responder.
"I also appreciate it if you have scalpels and all sorts of surgical scissors."
For the first time, Shen Yuan's solemn face was etched with a smile.
But it is not a bright one. Instead, it is a smile that would give chills because of how sinister it is.
Meanwhile, the battle of the S-Class master is nearing its climax.
At this moment, none of them knew that the storm was approaching them at an impossible speed for them to detect.
