Chapter 250 Visiting the Soldier's camp at the west gate
As the morning sun began to illuminate the world, casting its radiant glow, Yuan and his wives remained soundly asleep in their room at the inn. Their forms were only lightly covered by a thin fabric.
Yuan had taken the initiative to push the separate beds together the previous night, creating one large bed for them all to sleep on without any hindrance.
"It seems I'm the first one to wake up. They must be exhausted from the carriage ride," he mused to himself.
With a yawn, Yuan stirred from his slumber and noticed that his mother, Emma, and Xi Meili were still asleep. He reasoned they must have been particularly tired from the journey.
"I should get up, wash my face, and then wake them. I also need to collect the bounty and register Rose and her sisters as Hunters at the association," he planned.
Leaving the bed, he made his way to the bathroom, unaware that his mother had woken up just as he entered.
After a few minutes, Yuan emerged from the bathroom, refreshed. He found his mother, Xi Meili, and Emma also awake, changing their clothes.
"Oh, you're all awake as well. Good morning," he greeted them with a warm smile. His eyes fell on his mother, noticing significant changes in her physique after her merger.
She now stood taller, with a more curvaceous figure and larger, more prominent features. Her overall beauty had escalated considerably, leaving Yuan in awe of her transformed appearance.
'Wow, mom has gotten more gorgeous than before after being united into one, as well as alluring... I can hardly keep myself together.' Yuan whispered to himself as his gaze was drawn to his mother's alluring physique.
When his mother watched her kid drooling over her body as she dressed, she couldn't help but feel proud of her physique.
"Oh, good morning, darling," Anna Grace replied to Yuan, a seductive smile on her face. "Now where is my good morning kiss, darling?"
Yuan approached her with a smile on his face and immediately mashed his lips on her moist pink lips, and Anna Grace curved her arms around his neck and kissed him for a time.
"I'll go to the bathroom to freshen up, we have a lot to do after breakfast," Anna Grace said, breaking the kiss. She made her way to the bathroom to wash her face.
While she was in the bathroom, Yuan embraced both Xi Meili and Emma, giving each of them a good morning kiss on their lips.
A short while later, Anna Grace returned from the bathroom after washing her face. Xi Meili and Emma took turns using the facilities.
Suddenly, a knock echoed through the room, and Lily's voice accompanied it from outside.
"Little Yuan, Mom, Emma, open the door for us. Or, are you guys still sleeping?!"
"We're all up now. Wait a moment, let me open the door for you guys," Anna Grace called back. She went to welcome her daughter and daughters-in-law inside.
When Rose, Julie, and Ava saw the woman who greeted them, they wore puzzled expressions. Who was this new woman who resembled both Grace and Anna? Although they hadn't met her before, she felt strangely familiar.
Lily noticed her mothers had become one again and asked with curiosity, "Mom, when did you become one? You look even more beautiful than I remember."
The Monroe sisters were taken aback by Lily addressing the unknown woman as her mother. They exchanged confused glances.
"It happened last night. Darling wanted us to become one, so we granted his request as good wives do," Anna Grace replied to her daughter with a smile. She then turned her attention to the Monroe sisters and saw their bewildered expressions.
"You three must be quite confused and curious about my appearance, aren't you?"
"Indeed, how did you become like this, Mother-in-law?" The Monroe sisters nodded, and Rose quickly asked.
"First, come inside, and then I'll explain everything," Anna Grace invited them with a warm smile.
The Monroe sisters entered the room, and Anna Grace took a seat beside Yuan. She proceeded to recount the details of their merging, and the sisters listened intently, absorbing every detail.
After a while, Anna Grace rose from the bed and said, "Darling, let's head to the dining area for breakfast. Remember, we have a busy schedule today. We need to visit the soldier's camp at the west gate and register Rose, Julie, and Ava as hunters at the Hunter Association."
"Naturally, let's have our breakfast first, shall we?"
His wives nodded, and they left the room, locking the door carefully behind them. They made their way towards the dining area of the Dandelion Inn.
"Oh, esteemed guests. You guys are awake now. I thought you'd continue to sleep all day long in your rooms," the innkeeper greeted them with a lively voice as soon as they arrived at the dining area for breakfast.
"Hahah, we were quite tired after a long journey yesterday, so waking up late is quite normal, is it not?" Yuan replied with a chuckle.
"Indeed, I was just teasing you guys to make the mood more lively," the innkeeper replied with a smile. She continued, "Give me a few minutes, I'll prepare the breakfast for you quickly."
"Please do," Yuan nodded. He and his wives took their seats at the dining table, waiting for the breakfast to arrive.
A few minutes later, the innkeeper returned with their breakfasts on a large tray, carefully carrying them to their table all at once.
"Your breakfast is here, esteemed guests," she said, placing the dishes on the table with a smile. "I'll leave you guys alone now, please enjoy it while it's still hot."
With that, the innkeeper left the scene, allowing Yuan and his wives to enjoy their meal in peace.
After a few minutes, having finished breakfast, Yuan stood up and turned to his wives.
"Now that we've satisfied our stomachs, let's head to the soldiers' camp at the west gate to collect the bounty reward for eliminating the group of bandits."
Anna Grace nodded. "Very well, then we'll register Rose, Julie, and Ava as hunters at the Hunter Association. What do you think, Rose, Julie, and Ava?"
"That would be wonderful, mother-in-law. We also want to register ourselves as hunters, since with a hunter license we can cross most borders smoothly," Rose agreed after a quick exchange of looks with her sisters.
Anna Grace nodded and turned towards Yuan. "Since Rose, Julie, and Ava share the same thought as us, let's move out then, shall we?"
"Yes, let's go," Yuan agreed, heading towards the exit and leaving the inn.
They walked towards the west gate where the soldiers' camp was located.
"So, this is the soldiers' camp, huh," Yuan observed, looking at the large building with a sword and shield insignia on top of it, designed for the city's defense.
"It seems like it. Let's enter inside and finish our business here as soon as possible. I don't like being stared at so much," his mother said, her tone uneasy as she felt many inappropriate gazes from the soldiers.
Yuan looked around and indeed, there were many soldiers staring at his wives as if they'd never seen a woman before.
"Sigh! Although I hate it when other males stare at my women, I can't always stop them from looking," Yuan sighed inwardly.
"Let me do something about them," Yuan said to his wives, and he released his peak spirit master realm cultivation base. The soldiers felt an invisible pressure bearing down on them, and fear filled their faces.
"What the hell is this feeling?!"
"I don't know! But it feels like a mountain has fallen on us!"
"This pressure... is he the one doing this?!"
"Unbelievable! I've never felt this kind of oppression before, not even in the presence of Lord Monbrook!"
"Indeed! This young man is on a totally different level than Lord Monbrook. It's best that we don't provoke him, or even Lord Monbrook won't be able to save us from him!"
The soldiers began to whisper among themselves, struggling against the heavy pressure pushing them down.
"That's better," Yuan muttered to himself, satisfied with the soldiers' reactions. He then turned towards his wives.
"Let's go inside."
His wives nodded, and they entered the building. Inside, they found a counter with a soldier seated behind it.nove/1b-In
"What kind of complaint do you have to register?" the soldier asked as they approached.
"We're not here to register any complaint. We're here for this," Yuan said, presenting the severed head of the bandit leader he had killed in the small village they had saved. "We're only here for the rewards."
"I-i-isn't that the leader of the group of notorious bandits that has become quite famous recently, Jabez!" The soldier stared at Yuan and his wives, stunned to recognize the notorious bandit at a single glance.
"So, his name was Jabez, huh. He's quite weak for such a dangerous name. It doesn't fit him at all," Yuan commented as he examined the severed head, causing the soldier's eyes to widen in disbelief.
'Jabez is a weakling in his eyes?! What kind of logic is this?! We've tried so many times to capture Jabez, but none of our attempts succeeded. How can he say a notorious bandit like Jabez is a weakling?!' The soldier cried inwardly.
