Chapter 29

In a corner of the living room that was not illuminated by the crystal chandelier, several players looked at each other, completely unable to contain their excitement.

"Boss, when did you enter the dungeon?"

The female player with a crew cut was showing signs of becoming the leader among the players. She rubbed her hands and walked up to talk to the big guy.

Wen Xingxue wiped his knife that was stained with sticky black blood, his pair of black eyes as cold as the snow that had been frozen on an iceberg for thousands of years.

He was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt and didn't seem to want to answer. He lowered his eyes and put his scimitar behind his waist.

The boss was so imposing that the female player with a crew cut exchanged glances with the other players, fell silent, and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

The new player didn't quite understand what the other veteran players were so excited about, so he quietly approached and asked softly:

"Senior, is this boss very powerful? What level is he?"

Why are the old players so excited when they see him, as if they saw their dead father resurrected on the spot?

The old player's mouth trembled a little, and he looked at Wen Xingxue who was resting with his eyes closed with shining eyes.

"Wen Xingxue! He is currently ranked first in the player god rankings! He has cleared several SSS+ level dungeons single-handedly!"

The newcomer's eyes widened instantly, he said softly, and couldn't help but clench his fists in excitement.

"Then we are saved! The level of this dungeon has been upgraded so high, and now a big player has come in. Maybe we can get out alive this time!"

The old player nodded and slowly exhaled.

The heavy stone that had been pressing on my heart for the past two days was immediately lightened by half the moment I saw the boss.

He knew that no matter how bad this dungeon was, he would not watch a few rookie players die!

Look, a god-level boss is matched in immediately!

The female player with a buzz cut also felt less anxious. Seeing that everyone was in a good mood, she started to liven up the atmosphere:

"It looks like we don't have to hide and wake up the little master of the castle to save our lives tonight."

As if he heard a few key words, Wen Xingze raised his drooping eyes and said in a hoarse voice:

"Young Master?"

Where did the little owner of the castle come from?

It was the first time for the female player with a crew cut to communicate with a big shot of this level. She felt a little nervous unconsciously and nodded in response quickly.

"Yes, the young master of the castle is called Xingnuo. He came with us from the path outside."

Wen Xingze's voice was extremely inconsistent with his face. It was as gloomy and hoarse as an old, worn-out bellows. Listening to it always gave people an uncomfortable feeling as if they were being crawled over by a cold and slippery snake-like animal.

"Xingnuo?"

He read the name, and then turned around and asked, "What did you think of?"

"He's upstairs?"

The female player with a crew cut nodded.

I don’t know why, maybe it’s because this boss has too strong a sense of killing, the female players with buzz cuts always feel uneasy.

"Yes, but Xingnuo is different from the monster in the castle. He is a very cute kid."

The female player with a crew cut had a very good impression of Xingnuo and explained to the boss, fearing that Wen Xingxue would pick up a knife and go upstairs to chop the young master in the next second.

Another new player also nodded quickly:

"Yes, Xingnuo is pretty cute. She saved us before."

The other male player snorted coldly with a look of disdain.

"Are you sick? You're still speaking for the little monster?! Don't forget that we are humans and they are monsters! Still cute? When he turns into a monster, the first ones he'll kill will be you idiots!"

The female player with a crew cut narrowed her eyes, with a hint of coldness in them, as she stared at the male player.

"Have you forgotten that when you were chased by the servant monster and ran around the living room last night, crying and screaming for your parents and almost dying, it was Xingnuo who woke up and saved your life?"

This is not how you act as an ungrateful person, right?

If Xingnuo hadn’t warned the servant monsters last night, I’m afraid their graves would have been standing up today!

The male player cursed and snorted.

"Isn't it just because this little monster is good-looking? But don't forget, a monster is still a monster after all!"

The female player with a crew cut was so angry that her wheat-colored face turned red. The violent emotions that she had been unable to suppress during the day now burst out.

"You TM..."

Before she could finish her words, the female player with a crew cut used her props to pull her back from the brink of losing control of her emotions.

Biting the tip of her tongue in pain, the female player with a crew cut tried hard to stay awake. She glared at the male player fiercely and walked to the corner farthest away from him.

The male player's eyes were now bloodshot, he was irritable and crazy, and wanted to have a fight.

The other sharp-eyed players had already noticed something was wrong and moved away from him, leaving him alone to lose his temper.

Wen Xingxue was annoyed by the other party's noise, so she raised her eyelids and glanced at the crazy male player.

"Shut up."

There are rarely any big ups and downs in the sound of his voice, and his tone is chilly, with a sticky, damp and uncomfortable feeling.

The male player's expression froze. His anger was not vented, and his chest heaved up and down as if he was about to explode.

But he didn't dare to offend Wen Xingxue, so no matter how uncomfortable he felt, he had to hold it in and endure it.

Wen Xingxue's ears were quiet now. He looked up at the female player with a crew cut and asked:

"His name is Xingnuo? How old is he?"

The female player with a crew cut pursed her lips, looked into Wen Xingxue's cold and deep eyes, and finally answered:

"About three or four."

Wen Xingxue chuckled when he heard this, and his expression showed a hint of interest.

"This is very interesting."

A cruel monster like Chen Wen actually raised a child.

Wen Xingxue stood up, glanced at the crystal chandelier that suddenly dimmed, and pulled the knife from his waist.

"Get out of the way, stay away."

He glanced coldly at the other players, and the next second, he rushed towards the dark shadow with a knife in hand.

***

Xingnuo listened to his father telling stories several times. He was so tired and sleepy that he curled up in the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Wen brought him a prop pillow as usual, bent down, and gently stroked Zizi's face.

"Xingnuo, go to sleep. Daddy will go get rid of the eyesore."

After saying that, Shen Wen kissed the baby's face, then walked out lightly.

Xingnuo had a bizarre dream. In the dream, his father seemed to have become someone he didn't recognize.

The dream was pitch black, with only my father's light shining through.

Xingnuo clearly didn't recognize him at all, but he knew that this giant was his favorite father!

He was not afraid at all. He ran up with his eyes curved, wanting a hug from his father.

Unfortunately, the clingy baby was picked up by another strange man before his father could pick him up.

"It really is a human cub."

Wen Xingxue flashed into the bedroom, raised her cold fingers and poked the soft cub's face.

Xingnuo was held by the scruff of the neck in a daze, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether he was dreaming or awake.

He was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyelids. He was lifted in the air, his little feet hanging limply, and he kept nodding his head.

It seemed like he was about to fall asleep with his head hanging down.

Wen Xingxue, dressed in black, lowered his head, stared at the brat for a long time, and laughed hoarsely.

"How interesting. He doesn't look like Shen Wen at all."

Wen Xingxue had just finished speaking when Chen Wen chased after him the next second.

Wen Xingxue put Xingnuo back on the bed with regret. Seeing the little boy lying in the quilt in a daze with his dark but dazed eyes open, he felt that he was a little familiar.

"I'm leaving."

Wen Xingxue withdrew his gaze and quickly disappeared from the bedroom.

Chen Wen did not continue to chase after her. He stood at the door with a gloomy face and calmed down.

He walked into the bedroom, sat quietly in front of the bed, and covered Xingnuo with a small quilt.

Chen Wen patted Xingnuo's back and coaxed the cub to sleep.

"It's okay, Xingnuo, go to sleep."

Xingnuo was in a daze, not knowing what was going on. He closed his eyes and muttered something.

Rubbing his father's hand, Xingnuo felt very safe and gave a soft smile.

The next second, Xingnuo fell into a deep sleep.

Shen Wen watched Xing Nuo fall asleep, and the originally gentle and warm expression on his face gradually became cold and gloomy.

He glanced in a certain direction, his chest rising and falling slightly, and said to the butler who had been standing outside the door waiting dutifully:

"Go and inform everyone. Kill Wen Xingxue for me, no matter the cost!"

The butler nodded without even asking the reason and turned around to make arrangements.

That night, Xingnuo still slept uneasily.

There were always some rustling noises disturbing him, forcing Xingnuo to wake up and open his eyes several times.

Unfortunately, every time I open my eyes, there is nothing.

The dark night outside the window quickly faded away, and the daylight filtered through the window into the small bedroom with warm colors.

Xingnuo yawned slightly, and there were slight indigo dark circles under his fair eyelids, obviously he did not sleep well.

He held his little pillow, came out of the bedroom in a daze, and went next door to find his father.

Xingnuo walked barefoot on the shag carpet to the next door and bumped into the thigh of Shen Wen who was about to go out.

He rubbed up and rested his furry little head on his father's legs.

"Dad, baby is sleepy."

During the day, Chen Wen had a cold expression, as if he had never had a good expression towards anything.

He half-closed his eyes, staring at the kid who bumped into him, then raised his hand and picked up Xingnuo.

"Go to sleep if you're tired. What's the point of looking for me?"

Xingnuo was lifted into the air and kicked her feet. She felt as if she had just been lifted up like this before.

He tilted his little head, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Dad, tell the baby a story."

Chen Wen snorted coldly and put the kid back on the ground.

"Won't."

He had never told a story to anyone, and he never would.

Chen Wen turned around and went downstairs, no longer paying attention to the limp little ball who was in a daze.

Xingnuo was wearing a long robe and pajamas, holding her little pillow, looking up blankly at her father walking away.

He blinked and couldn't help scratching his little face.

Dad seemed to have become a stranger again.
