The Hedonist Sword God

Chapter 321: Punishing Dong Hu

While listening to Qingyu, Jian Shen truly didn't know what to do about the girl who was reluctant to even stop hugging him.

It couldn't be that he obtained a daughter just like that, right?

After all, even though her race was a very powerful one and it guaranteed that she'd grow very strong in the future, it didn't mean that he'd need to accept her as his daughter either.

Given how he never stayed at once place and always kept on moving around, there was no way that Jian Shen would have the time to care for a young girl whom he knew nothing about.

And it wasn't just about him, wouldn't the little girl also be inconvenienced if he didn't properly take care of her?

This additional responsibility was something that Jian Shen wasn't eager in picking up.

"Papa papa!"

Focusing on the girl since she began shaking his neck, Jian Shen who just snapped out of his daze was once again shocked.

"Where mama?"

"Huh?"

Mama?

How would I know where your mother is?!

Seeing Jian Shen not answering her question, the little girl from the Heaven Devouring Race pouted and threatened to once again start crying if he didn't let her meet her mama.

This was also when the group of women who had stayed silent for quite a surprising time once again started butting in.

"That's right, where's the little girl's mother, Jian Shen?"

"Let the poor girl meet her mother, honey."

Rolling his eyes, Jian Shen was about to ignore them when Wuying did something completely unexpected.

Since she and the others knew that Jian Shen wasn't really the little girl's father, she took a step forward and spoke after she was sure that she obtained the little girl's attention.

"Come here, baby... Come to mommy... "

Hearing her, the other women quickly understood what it was that Wuying wanted to do. And once they did so, they quickly began imitating her.

Showing off as much of their motherly charms as possible, all of them spread their arms and beckoned for the little girl to come to her mommy.

Though feeling that the little girl was a bit pitiful did make them want to step in as her mother, the main reason however was because they'd become mama while Jian Shen was papa.

If that wasn't enough to get even closer to Jian Shen, then what else would?

Also, once they showed off that they were capable of taking care of a child it might be possible to have a kid of their own.

With such thoughts, even though the little girl who was looking at them curiously didn't move towards them, the group of women themselves moved closer to her and surrounded her.

"Stop it. You'll just end up scaring her."

Making the women step back when they came way too close to the little girl in his hand with eyes full of greed and desire, Jian Shen who still hadn't decided what to do about her saw that Cui Yan and Xifeng came back after finishing their discussion and the both of them looked quite happy.

Seems like they came to some kind of an understanding which benefited the both of them.

This was also when the girl hanging from his neck showed her tongue towards the group of women who were trying to pass off as her mother and said, "Too weak... Mama not weak!"

Hearing her words Jian Shen smirked towards the eager bunch of women who snorted and began thinking of some other way.

But before they could do that, the girl who finally spotted Lifen that was sitting on the end of Jian Shen's shoulder and looking at her vigilantly.

"Mama?"

Jumping towards the cute little fox because she could sense that it was very strong, the girl caused Lifen to jump away with eyes full of fear.

After all, even though she didn't know the origins of this girl, she was sure that they were definitely terrifying.

At the same time, the other women who saw this scene felt that maybe the little girl's background was much more profound than they originally expected it to be.

...

"Humph! Someone dares to go against our Dong Clan?! Seems like people are thinking we don't exist due to staying silent for so long. First General, I order you to go and capture that one who dared kill the Third General! Let everyone remember that the Dong Clan isn't something that anyone can offend!"

Slamming the table with the underside of his clenched fist, Dong Xiu, the leader of the Dong Clan couldn't remember the last time some unknown visitor to the city dared to behave so audaciously.

"Please wait a moment, father. I request you to listen to my words before making a decision."

"Humph! What is it, Shi'er?"

Despite being angry, Dong Xiu had the First General hold back and wait until after he finished listening to his eldest son, Dong Shi's words.

"Putting aside that someone killed the Thrid General, why did the Third General even make a move on that person while taking the army under him? As far as I know, the Third General isn't someone who'd make such decisions on his own. This can only mean that someone had ordered him to do what he did, father."

Frowning since his son wasn't talking about the one who killed the Third General and instead was blaming the one who ordered for the Third General to do something which led him to his death, Dong Xiu said, "Get to the point, Shi'er."

"Don't misunderstand me, father. That one who killed the Third General is our enemy, but before launching an attack on someone who has a pet beast in the Eternal Palace Realm, I'd like you to punish Dong Hu who is the main reason behind all of this."
