Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238: Chapter 237: Carrying a Single Son

Last night, when they discovered that the Lock Breath Technique on the two children in the secret room had been disturbed, they knew someone had been there.

The first people they thought of were the Flood Dragon Clan and the White Fox Clan, who were staying in the City Lord Mansion.

But more importantly, the spiritual power within the two children’s bodies had vanished.

At first, they thought someone had simply triggered the Lock Breath Technique, causing too much spiritual power to leak out. After a short while, the children’s bodies should have been able to generate more.

They never expected that after waiting all night, the two children couldn’t produce even a shred of new spiritual power.

Even their Spiritual Cores were completely inert.

It was as if their spiritual power had been completely stolen, turning them into cripples.

But who in this world could possibly steal another’s spiritual power and make it their own?

Even special beings like them couldn’t do such a thing.

Shen Yue looked at the four men.

"What a Hu City Lord. No, four Hu City Lords."

"If you want to know who I am, why don’t you first tell me what kind of creatures you are?"

It was the first time she had ever seen four identical people in the Beast World.

It was no exaggeration for her to describe them as ’creatures’.

Her tone hardened.

"And what about these nine children? Did you kill them?"

The four men, still terrified of her power, exchanged a look when she asked this.

They all chose to keep their mouths shut, not saying a word.

Shen Yue saw through their little scheme. The power at her fingertips condensed into an ice blade, and her oppressive aura filled the stone chamber.

"Not talking, are we? Then don’t even think about leaving here today."

Huang Ziyue stood beside Shen Yue, his own aura blanketing the room like a thunderclap. The combined pressure of their power made the four Hu Tus tremble uncontrollably.

But they still clenched their jaws, their beast-like eyes filled with a crazed ferocity, refusing to utter a single word.

The fire of anger in Shen Yue’s heart burned hotter.

With a wave of her hand, her immense power transformed into threads as fine as needles. They swarmed toward the men, then softly burrowed into their meridians, twisting around their already damaged spiritual power.

The four men instantly collapsed to the ground in pain, their faces pale as death.

The two whose spiritual power had already been stolen by Shen Yue couldn’t withstand this new torment. They screamed and writhed on the ground, clutching their bodies.

As for the other two, they could clearly feel their own spiritual power rapidly vanishing as Shen Yue’s energy invaded their bodies, the pain making them shudder violently.

Shen Yue looked down at the four Hu Tus on the floor.

"If you don’t want to become cripples, start talking!"

The four Hu Tus screamed in agony but still refused to speak.

Seeing this, Shen Yue eased up on her power. She knew she couldn’t let them die so quickly if she wanted to get to the truth.

She would have to torture them bit by bit.

The power in her hand pulled at the threads inside their bodies, making them writhe on the ground in a pain akin to death by a thousand cuts.

She watched them coldly.

"I know your wife is pregnant. If you want to see her again, you’d better confess. I might even let you have one last meeting."

Her words seemed to trigger something.

Even though they were on the verge of fainting from the pain, all four Hu Tus stiffened in unison. A crack appeared in the resolve in their beast-like eyes.

Shen Yue keenly caught their change in expression and immediately pressed her advantage.

"I wonder how many children your wife is carrying this time?"

"Three? Two? Or... just one?"

With every word she spoke, the expressions on the four Hu Tus’ faces shifted continuously.

Especially when she said "one."

The look in all four men’s eyes froze for an instant.

Shen Yue’s eyes narrowed immediately.

"However, I happen to know a little about medicine. I can tell you for certain that your wife is carrying a single son."

However, the attendant had told her today that Hu Tu’s wife always gave birth to twins. She had only given birth to a single child once, and after that child was born, Hu Tu adored him, treasuring him more than any of his other children. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
