171: Chapter 171 I Didn't Expect You to Be So Love-Obsessed Too
The atmosphere in the training ground instantly plummeted from the boiling point of emotional entanglement to absolute zero.
Meng De was surrounded by a group of 'confidantes,' listening as they tearfully accused the 'white moonlight,' Cai Wenjuan, of all sorts of faults, his face etched with pain, struggle, and guilt.
He looked at the shredded letter on the ground, then at the tear-streaked beauties before him, momentarily appearing caught in an internal struggle.
Finally, his gaze, seeking help, turned toward Chen You, who had remained like an outsider from beginning to end.
That look was incredibly complex, holding both a plea and a question, even carrying a trace of almost imperceptible... hope.
It was as if he were saying: Brother, is there any way to make them accept Juaner?
I want them all; is that possible?
Chen You received this signal with an expressionless face and almost lost his composure.
Even his main body in the practice room experienced a momentary pause in its aura.
As expected of you, Meng De.
Even a master of time management would offer you a cigarette after this.
Facing the Meng De's hopeful gaze, Chen You finally made a move.
He crossed his arms and slowly walked two steps forward.
His calm gaze swept over the fox demons who were still 'acting,' finally settling on Meng De's face.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes—whether expectant or wary—he offered his 'solution.'
"Meng De," Chen You's tone was completely flat, "I suggest we slaughter them all."
"..."
"..."
The entire backyard fell into a deathly silence.
Even the wind seemed to stop.
The 'Mei' demon, who had been crying hysterically moments before, still had tears clinging to her eyelashes, but her expression had completely frozen.
The action of the cool-tempered woman, who had just picked up a shard, also froze mid-air.
All the coquetry, weeping, accusations, and comforting abruptly ceased.
Over a dozen pairs of eyes—be they seductive, pure, or resentful—stared blankly at Chen You, filled with utter disbelief.
Even Meng De seemed as if he had been struck by Divine Firmament Heavenly Thunder, completely stunned.
He opened his mouth and after a long pause managed to force out a sound, chuckling dryly: "Chen, Brother Chen, you... you're joking too broadly..."
"That’s too much, too much! It's not necessary. They are just... just jealous!"
"It’s normal for women to throw little tantrums."
Meng De laughed awkwardly while frantically signaling Chen You.
The meaning was: What are you doing? I asked you to mediate the conflict, and you're suggesting physically eliminating the conflict?
"I am not joking."
Chen You shook his head, looking at him seriously, his eyes even carrying a hint of pity.
"Meng De, your love is too frivolous, too cheap."
"Loving every person you meet—do you think you are saving all sentient beings?"
Chen You raised his hand and pointed at the women, who had recovered from their shock and whose faces were now showing wariness and malice.
"In reality, you are just using them to fill the emptiness in your heart."
"This kind of indiscriminate 'kindness' is the easiest to exploit."
"You..." Meng De’s face instantly flushed red, leaving him speechless for a moment.
"Nonsense!"
The three-tailed fox demon named 'Mei' was the first to react.
Her delicate eyebrows shot up, and she pointed sharply at Chen You, screaming, "What right do you have to dictate things here to Brother Meng!"
"How could a cold-blooded person like you understand the kindness Brother Meng shows us!"
Her shout seemed to signal the start of a full-scale offensive.
"Exactly! Which one of us sisters isn't a person with a tragic past? If Brother Meng hadn't taken us in, we would have died who knows where!"
"Brother Meng is just kind-hearted and can't stand to see us suffer. Why do you speak of him like that!"
"We and Brother Meng are truly in love! You outsider, get out!"
The group of fox demons were once again possessed by their acting skills, each looking indignant and pitiful, firmly protecting Meng De behind them.
Meng De looked at the scene before him and was greatly moved.
Look! Look!
They do have me in their hearts!
He instantly felt that Chen You's words were utter nonsense; Chen You simply didn't understand his 'universal love.'
Meng De sighed lightly, pointing at the group of women with an expression that clearly said, 'You misunderstood.'
"Mei and the others were all unfortunate children before; they are all pitiable people."
"I just wanted to give them a warm home so they wouldn't have to wander anymore. Is there anything wrong with that?"
He spoke with such sincere emotion, as if he were a living Bodhisattva saving people from suffering.
The fox demon named 'Mei' even cooperated by squeezing out a few tears, choking out, "Brother Meng... don't say that... We understand, we all understand your kindness..."
For a moment, the entire training ground was once again filled with the touching atmosphere of 'gratitude repaid' and 'mutual devotion.'
Chen You: "..."
He was truly speechless.
This love brain has probably reached the terminal stage; it's incurable.
He didn't even bother wasting words on Meng De anymore, his gaze passing directly over him to look at the fox demons who were still putting on a show.
"Alright, stop acting."
Chen You's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the entire backyard.
"Your tears are almost cried out, aren't they? Go get some water."
The fox demons’ crying stopped.
A faint curve appeared at the corner of Chen You's mouth, his eyes playful.
"Your acting is indeed excellent; even the Oscars owe you a little gold statue."
He paused, then his tone suddenly turned cold.
"However, when you encounter me, your tails can no longer be hidden."
Buzz!
The look of sorrow on the face of Mei, who had been shouting the loudest, vanished without a trace, replaced by extreme terror and chilling killing intent!
The aura around the cool-tempered woman who had remained silent also became incredibly dangerous.
The other dozen or so fox demons also dropped their fragile and easily bullied demeanor, their eyes turning cold and fierce as they stared fixedly at Chen You.
The pink, enchanting demonic energy around them, visible in Chen You's Gazing at Qi to See the Heart vision, began to churn violently, gradually taking on a bloody hue!
The atmosphere of the training ground completely changed.
The gentle fragrance and sweet voices of before vanished completely.
What replaced them were gusts of cold wind and surging killing intent!
"You... what did you say?"
Meng De hadn't reacted yet. He looked at Chen You, then at the 'confidantes' beside him whose faces had suddenly changed, his mind a mess.
Tails? What tails?
"Meng De, these ladies are not simple."
Chen You raised his hand and pointed vaguely at the Mei demon.
"This 'devoted' Miss Mei of yours hides three furry fox tails behind her back, currently absorbing your vital essence."
"And that one," he pointed to the cool-tempered woman, "also has three."
"The rest are basically little foxes with one or two tails."
"You thought you were raising a harem; in reality, you opened a fox den. You thought you were their savior; you were just their food source and long-term meal ticket."
Chen You's words were like daggers aimed straight at the heart.
Meng De's face went from flushed, to pale, and then to ashen.
He staggered back two steps, looking at the familiar faces around him in disbelief.
These women who accompanied him day and night, who were tender and completely obedient to him...
Were... demons?
"No... impossible..." Meng De's voice trembled, "Mei and the others... how could they..."
If any other player had reached this point, they might have had to wait for Meng De to figure things out himself, repent, and join forces to kill the demons.
But Chen You didn't want to wait.
"They say doing evil deeds will bring down lightning. Today, I'll let you see whether they are good or bad!"
He raised his hand, electric light flickering at his fingertips.
"Divine Firmament Heavenly Thunder Orthodox Method!"
