Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Having Auditory Hallucinations

Shen Yue was a bit shocked and looked down at the little cubs on the floor:

"And you? Did you hear a bell just now?"

The little ones all shook their heads in unison:

"Mother, Dabao didn’t hear it!"

"Er Bao didn’t hear it either."

"Si Bao, too!"

Shen Yue found it strange.

’Could it be that I’m the only one who can hear the bell?’

She immediately looked at Moo Moo, who was leisurely and contentedly licking the water from its coat.

It showed no other reaction.

Lan Cangyue understood the implication of her question:

"You’re asking because you heard it ring?"

But they had never heard a bell before!

Shen Yue reined in her thoughts and glanced at the golden bell one more time.

Her expression returned to normal as she said:

"No, perhaps I’m just on edge today and imagined it."

Ye Lüqi chimed in, "I’d say so. You’ve been through so much from this morning until now. First you had a fright, and now you’re busy bathing the children. Why don’t you go inside and get some proper rest?"

Lan Cangyue added:

"That’s right. You were injured when you fell. We can look after the children, so you go and get a good night’s sleep."

Shen Yue shook her head. She knew she hadn’t misheard.

So, her gaze held a hint of inquiry as she looked at the bell:

"I’m fine. I haven’t finished bathing Moo Moo yet. You two go and take care of other things."

Shen Yue shooed Ye Lüqi and Lan Cangyue off to do their work, then continued bathing Moo Moo.

In truth, she wanted to test the bell again.

Sure enough, when her hand touched the bell, a clear, lingering chime rang out once more.

It slipped into her ears and echoed in her mind.

It was as if the sound could pierce the very depths of her soul.

This time, no memory fragments flashed through her mind, but she could confirm that Ye Lüqi and Lan Cangyue had shown no reaction at all.

Which meant they hadn’t heard a thing.

She had confirmed her suspicion: only she could hear the bell.

She understood, in fact, that continuing to live on Wilderness Mountain was not a wise decision.

’But I have a feeling that the body’s original owner, after going through so much hardship to get to Wilderness Mountain, must have had other objectives besides just wanting to hide and give birth.’

’Otherwise, she could have given birth anywhere. She could have hidden in a remote Beast Clan tribe where no one knew her. Why insist on coming to Wilderness Mountain?’

’That’s why I still want to stay here for a while, despite the danger. I want to see what this Wilderness Mountain holds, what might happen, and what the body’s original owner was truly trying to accomplish.’

But now, Moo Moo’s appearance served as confirmation.

Moo Moo’s appearance was likely no coincidence. She could feel that the creature was unusually dependent on and close to her.

This kind of affection was definitely not something that developed at a first meeting.

’So, the other reason the original owner went through so much trouble to come to Wilderness Mountain... was it all for Moo Moo?!’

At this thought, a storm of shock crashed through her. ’Just how capable was the original owner, to have even factored Moo Moo into her plans?’

’And I’m only just realizing it now,’ she thought. ’When Moo Moo appeared this morning with that world-ending aura, I should have been able to foresee the danger. But I didn’t, which must mean Moo Moo itself would never have harmed me or the children.’

「Meanwhile.」

After leaving the bamboo house that night, Huang Ziyue headed for the base of the cliff.

But as he stood at its base, the surrounding miasma had grown thick enough to conceal the entire cliff face.

He even sensed an unusual presence. It was faint and intermittent, yet it was able to suppress his spiritual power.

Confused, he started walking toward the cave entrance he had previously smashed open...

Just then, Bai Chaosi and Gu Fangqi appeared behind him.

The moment they stopped, they sensed something was wrong.

Gu Fangqi said, "Some kind of power here is suppressing my spiritual power."

Huang Ziyue frowned.

"Why are you here?"

Bai Chaosi scanned the area, his expression grim:

"The Golden Lion King is watching over Shen Yue."

"But the Devouring God Flower concerns the entire Beast World. No matter how powerful you are, you can’t handle this alone."

As they walked, the surroundings grew eerily quiet. Gu Fangqi frowned and said: 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
