Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands-Chapter 177: He is Xiao Jinsheng’s main husband?
Chapter 177: Chapter 177: He is Xiao Jinsheng’s main husband?
The group fell silent at Xuan Jiu’s words.
Yu Yunxiao spoke with a hint of pity, "Let me help fix your brain."
No matter if it’s real death or fake death, he’s already died four times.
Each time, he’s experienced the fear of death.
To be honest, Yu Yunxiao admired Xuan Jiu’s optimistic mindset.
"Little kitten, let’s heal Little Fish together first," Xiao Jinsheng reminded.
Yu Yunxiao suddenly remembered that this room was full of patients.
There were the two mentally ill ones, Chen Yunji and Xuan Jiu.
And Shi Xie, whose entire body was a walking illness.
No matter how short the terminal’s deadlines were,
at least during the final days, everyone wanted to live each day well.
Living under the terminal’s surveillance left no secrets; before finding a solution, most of what people wanted to say stayed buried in their hearts.
At this moment, everyone wished they could awaken a mind-reading superpower.
There was a crack in Shi Xie’s heart, and he’d been waiting for a Healing Element Nine-star superpower to mend it.
Now that Yu Yunxiao had leveled up to Nine Stars, combined with Xiao Jinsheng’s ability to copy powers,
they essentially had two Nine-star Healing Element superpower users.
Yu Yunxiao’s palm lit up with a warm healing glow. Chin raised slightly, he spoke arrogantly, "Say your thanks first. With the two of us treating you, we guarantee full resurrection."
Shi Xie’s heart felt a pang.
After a long pause, he pitifully gazed at Xiao Jinsheng. "Master, I don’t want treatment anymore."
Shi Xie weakly raised a hand to his chest, sighing in a tone of pain, "From childhood to now, I seem to have gotten used to the sensation of my heart being torn apart."
"It was pain that got me through the tough days of my childhood, and it was also pain... that helped me endure the torment of those seven years waiting to reunite with you."
"Let this pain stay with me forever—Ah!"
"Master, you hit me?" Shi Xie looked at Xiao Jinsheng with red-rimmed eyes, hurt.
With her healing superpower glowing in her palm, Xiao Jinsheng pressed it firmly against his cheek. "Cut the theatrics already; focus on healing."
"Fine, but can you choose me tonight?" Shi Xie asked with hopeful eyes. "Once my heart is restored, my suppressed abilities will finally be at full potential."
Xiao Jinsheng froze.
Confused, she wondered if he was referring to his superpower level.
"Of course, she’ll choose me." Yu Yunxiao stepped directly between Xiao Jinsheng and Shi Xie.
He spoke in an irritated tone, "How can you take what’s mine? I’m helping heal you, and you’re still trying to steal my Master?"
"You’re not allowed to go anywhere tonight!" Yu Yunxiao finished lecturing Shi Xie before turning to Xiao Jinsheng and reminding her, "Healing his heart isn’t that simple. After treating Shi Xie, you’ll still have to use your healing superpower to help me recover tonight."
"You’ll get hurt?" Xiao Jinsheng asked anxiously.
She’d never heard of a healer losing health from treating others.
"I won’t get hurt, but it’s really exhausting mentally," Yu Yunxiao said, his cat ears drooping. "Luckily, since you also have a Healing Element superpower, you can help restore my energy and stamina."
"Got it, got it." Hearing that Yu Yunxiao wouldn’t be injured, Xiao Jinsheng breathed a sigh of relief.
She naturally saw no reason to refuse Yu Yunxiao’s request.
Even though Shi Xie’s heart was about to be healed, at that moment, he couldn’t stop feeling bitter.
On Mist Continent, ever since superpowers awakened, as long as a superpower level was high enough,
even the most severe internal and external injuries could be treated effectively.
Yu Yunxiao had even repaired Xuan Jiu’s heart, bringing him back from the brink of death.
Shi Xie merely had a heart crack; with the required superpower level met, healing it was simple.
There wasn’t even a need for Xiao Jinsheng to intervene; Yu Yunxiao alone could handle it.
As Shi Xie’s heart healed, the gloom that had weighed on him since childhood lifted instantly.
He pulled out a prepared gift and was about to hand it to Yu Yunxiao, only to see Yu Yunxiao falter and lean weakly against Xiao Jinsheng.
"Little kitten." Xiao Jinsheng hurriedly caught Yu Yunxiao, wrapping her arms around his slender waist to steady him.
"My head is spinning. I think I’ve overused my brain and drained my superpower energy," Yu Yunxiao said weakly, his cat ears drooping as he nestled into Xiao Jinsheng’s neck.
"Then should I take you upstairs to rest?" Xiao Jinsheng asked.
"Mm..." Yu Yunxiao murmured in assent.
Xiao Jinsheng draped Yu Yunxiao’s arm over her shoulder, holding his waist with one hand as she helped him upstairs.
As they reached the stairway landing, Shi Xie glanced over and saw Yu Yunxiao extend a hand behind him to flash a middle finger in his direction.
Shi Xie clenched his teeth, then burst into a rueful laugh out of sheer exasperation.
"How does the tea taste?" Su Ye teased gleefully.
"Learned it from you, didn’t I?" Mo Jiao scoffed at Shi Xie.
"Tea Master," Li sneered, "who doesn’t honor you by calling you a master?"
"It’s just tea; anyone can brew it," Que Zelian remarked calmly as he sat by the tea table, rinsing the leaves.
Only Huaiqing got up and looked at Xuan Jiu. "I’ll take you to your room."
"Thank you, thank you," Xuan Jiu said enthusiastically.
Truth be told, back on Cloud Island Snow Peak, through mind-reading, he had discovered that Huaiqing was a deeply calculating person.
So among Xiao Jinsheng’s Beast Husbands, if not dividing by strength, Xuan Jiu believed Yu Yunxiao and Su Ye were the easiest to fool.
Next came Mo Jiao, Shi Xie, and Li.
The toughest to deal with were Que Zelian and Huaiqing.
Hence, Xuan Jiu had always been particularly wary of interacting with Que Zelian and Huaiqing.
What he didn’t expect was that the first person to show him kindness was the very person he had been so guarded against—Huaiqing.
Just as Xuan Jiu doubted whether his judgment was wrong and he’d mistaken a good person for a bad one,
Huaiqing, walking ahead of him, smiled and explained, "I’m her main husband, responsible for daily life."
"You’re a guest, so of course, it’s my job to handle room arrangements."
"Main husband?" Xuan Jiu was taken aback. "You seven have already chosen a main husband?"
"Of course," Huaiqing replied with a light chuckle.
As for how many main husbands there were, Xuan Jiu didn’t ask, and Huaiqing didn’t elaborate.
"Is he Xiao Jinsheng’s main husband?" Xuan Jiu sought confirmation from Chen Yunji.
Chen Yunji thought back. Xiao Jinsheng had indeed decided on a main husband, and he had overheard the discussion.
But considering one person couldn’t out-argue seven, Chen Yunji hadn’t dared to get involved back then.
Besides Huaiqing, who was responsible for daily life as the main husband, the other six handled various other domains.
Recalling that Huaiqing hadn’t lied, Chen Yunji answered, "He’s the main husband, also in charge of daily life."
"I see," Xuan Jiu murmured.
He hadn’t expected that this household had already settled on a main husband.
Thinking about how Huaiqing, in the midst of simply showing him to his room, managed to casually emphasize his main husband status,
Xuan Jiu sneered inwardly.
Was this a warning to him?
No wonder this Beastman managed to stand out among the seven and secure the position of main husband.
Indeed, he had some tactics.
Facing Huaiqing, Xuan Jiu grew even warier.
The opponent was formidable.
It seemed his initial strategy was very prescient.
Upon arriving in his assigned room, Xuan Jiu quickly figured out who lived in the adjacent rooms.
To his left was Huaiqing’s room, and to his right was Shi Xie’s.
As for his own room, it was literally eight thousand miles away from Xiao Jinsheng’s.
Chen Yunji...
Having arrived earlier than him, somehow ended up in the farthest room—what felt like eighty thousand miles from Xiao Jinsheng.
Reflecting on his own plans, Xuan Jiu chuckled to himself and nodded.
Distance was good. The farther away, the less suspicion, the less risk of exposure.
