Chapter 417 Sylvia Is Acting Strange

Slash! The sword effortlessly cut through the monster's thick scales, decapitating him and causing his head to roll on the ground in the blink of an eye.

Yuan expressed displeasure, stating that it was easier than expected to take down the leader with a single stroke.

He then quickly swung his sword, clearing all of the blood from it before returning it to his system storage.

'It looks that after becoming Spirit Grandmaster, my strength has improved greatly, making even an SS-rank monster appear rather feeble.' He had a thought.

After becoming Spirit Grandmaster, his strengths improved dramatically, even though a tough SS-rank monster appeared weak to him, and he easily defeated it, which shocked him.

"Becoming a Spirit Grandmaster feels like a tenfold increase in strength."

Because it was his first combat after becoming a Spirit Grandmaster, he couldn't help but compare his strength to his previous cultivation level.

Meanwhile, everyone watched the event with wide-open eyes, incredulity, and shock evident on their features.

They couldn't believe their eyes when they saw that the SS-rank monster—the leader of the Giant Purple Lizards—had been decapitated before they could blink; it seemed absurd to them, and they refused to believe it.

They looked at the inconceivable image in front of them, with the monster leader's severed corpse lying on the ground, and horrified murmuring spread quickly.

"D-Di-Did he just decapitates the monster before we could blink our eyes?"

"T-this is impossible! There is no way he could defeat such a formidable creature so quickly; this must be an illusion, not reality."

"I can't believe the Celestial Blades' captain is so powerful that he can simply defeat such a powerful monster. Without him, we might have died fighting the beasts."

"Indeed. He and his wife rescued us all, unlike someone from a mighty kingdom."

"I concur. The Holy Son from the Holy Light Empire refused to face the monster; he was the epitome of a coward."

"I can't believe someone like him can be the Holy Son of the Holy Empire; he may be smart, but he is also a coward who doesn't care about the lives of others."

"He should be removed from his position as the Holy Son; he does not merit the title! He is simply demeaning the title of the Holy Son."

"Agreed! The Holy Son should be like Yuan, the Celestial Blades' captain! He is not only brave but also pleasant to be around."

"Above all, he is extremely attractive and could capture any woman's heart with a single glance. Not only that, but his women are stunningly attractive; I've never seen women like them before."

"This demonstrates that he has excellent taste in ladies, and a man of his caliber is well suited to having such lovely women by his side."

"King Richard, there's no need to thank us; we're doing this to ourselves," Yuan told the king a moment later. "After all, we accepted this expedition to fight powerful creatures and gain as much combat experience as possible.

King Richard was astonished by his remark and furrowed his brow; he didn't imagine Yuan would be brave enough to train his wife in this god-forsaken jungle.

General Valeria then stepped forward. "King Rochard, since we've finished everything here and the sun is about to set, how about we find a relatively open location to pitch our tent?"

"We also need to make sure the region is safe to set up our tents; after all, we can't risk endangering everyone's lives by selecting the wrong location." She spoke to the King.

"You simply snatched the words from my mouth, General Valeria," said King Richard, nodding. "We'll depart right away and find a location to pitch our tents and rest for the day."

Following that, King Richard instructed everyone to leave the area and find a spot to pitch their tents for the night.

Before that, they must store the dead bodies of their fallen comrades in a unique magic pouch, allowing them to return to their families.

Everyone then gathered the dead bodies in one location before a person placed them in a unique magic pouch.

Once the remains had been deposited, King Richard and Crown Prince Daniel led everyone away from the Giant Purple Lizards' den, and everyone followed him, including Yuan and his wives, Mireya, and Sylvia.

Sylvia continued to move forward, occasionally gazing at him and blushing slightly. Yuan finds Sylvia's reaction humorous, and he then notices Mireya doing the same thing, which surprises him.

'I understand Mireya has affection for me, but what about Sylvia? She occasionally looks at me and blushes, as if she is in love with me. Could she also be...?' His heartbeat quickened as he concluded Sylvia's unusual behavior towards him.

'Could she also be in love with me? No way! That is impossible!' But he swiftly dismisses such notions because Sylvia's attitude towards him is rather frigid.

They eventually arrived at an area with thicker and larger trees, as well as a slightly open spot in the middle of the trees, which was ideal for setting up their tents.

The king then promptly dispatched a few Hunters to scout the region for any threat, as well as a few individuals to plant a magical device on the parameters.

The magical contraption known as the Monster Repelling Sticks emits a strong and unique pulse that monsters dislike, therefore they avoid the instrument.

At the same time, Yuan removed their tent from his system storage and began preparing it with the assistance of Emma and Rose, while Anna and the others began preparing dinner.

Yuan decided to check on Valeria and see what she was doing in her special tent, which King Richard had provided for her.

"Mom Anna and Mom Grace, I'm going to check for Valeria and see what she's doing inside her tent," Yuan told his two mothers before leaving.

"Sure, but make sure you return before dinnertime," Anna replied. "Be sure to bring my new daughter-in-law with you."

"Alright!" he said from a distance, continuing to go towards Valeria's tent.
