Chapter 181 Delivery?

Name:My Celestial Ascension Author:


After wiping the blood off his massive sword, Yuan stored the Empyreal Oblivion in his system storage, causing it to disappear into thin air.

A heavy silence descended on the atmosphere, as the onlookers' eyes filled with a mix of fear and disbelief. They stared at the shocking scene before them—the head of Lord Harrison Turner rolling onto the ground, followed by his lifeless body falling.n0VelusB.C0m

People's expressions turned dumbfounded. What had just occurred? Had Lord Turner been decapitated in an instant?

"What just happened? When did he cut off Lord Turner's head? I didn't even see him move..." one onlooker spoke, his voice a mixture of shock and confusion.

"I-I don't know... I didn't see him move at all. Yet, he managed to kill the Lord of the Turner family. It's simply unbelievable."

"H-He actually killed Lord Turner? I never expected him to actually do it."

"He moved so quickly that none of us could see him strike. This strength is beyond what a human should possess."

"H-Hey, I'm just speculating here, but could this young man be the same person who saved our village from the Lord of the Mountain? Remember, they say that the hero who rescued us was accompanied by five beautiful women." An onlooker pointed a shaky finger toward the five strikingly beautiful women standing at the Monroe doorstep.

All eyes turned in the direction of the finger, landing on the five women who stood there, proud smiles gracing their faces.

"Now that you mention it... it's possible. He could indeed be our savior."

"It seems fate has brought our village's hero back to us, twice over."

Amidst the whispers, the Monroe family was also taken aback by the shocking sight. Lord Harrison Turner's head had fallen, and his body lay lifeless on the ground, surrounded by a pool of blood. They gaped at Yuan, their eyes wide with disbelief. How had he moved so fast? Why had they failed to notice him?

Madam Layla's gaze was fixed on Yuan, her expression seemingly dazed. 'Unbelievable! When did he swing that massive sword and sever Lord Harrison's head? Even as a peak fourth-circle mage, I couldn't perceive his movements. This power surpasses human limits.'

Yuan's lightning-fast motion had gone unnoticed by everyone except his wives, who had seen his every move clearly.

"As expected of the husband I chose for my daughters. His power transcends common sense. He truly is a unique individual," Madam Layla muttered, a small but proud smile gracing her face as she glanced at her daughters.

"Oh my god! Oh my god! Yuan actually did it! He killed that ugly pig! He's so cool, I'm falling for him even more!" Julie exclaimed in excitement, captivated by Yuan's impressive feat.

"Yuan really did it. Not only did he defeat the summoned earth golem, but he also killed the ruthless Butler Geoffrey and Lord Harrison. He did it all for our family..." Ava murmured, her voice seemingly distant as she stared at Yuan, his clothes stained with the blood of his adversaries.

'Thank goodness he defeated that bastard. Otherwise, I would've died a virgin! I owe a huge debt to my brother-in-law...' James sighed inwardly, as though a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

Wouldn't he become a laughing stock if he died without experiencing intimacy as the future head of the Monire family? It's amusing even just to think about it.

Having stored his Empyreal Oblivion within his system storage, Yuan approached his wives with a faint smile on his face. Though he felt slightly awkward due to being covered in his enemy's blood, he didn't show any other signs of distress.

"You did well by taking down that despicable pig. He was so full of himself that I almost wanted to kill him myself," Lily remarked nonchalantly as Yuan joined them.

Yuan couldn't help but shake his head at Lily's familiar attitude. Some things never change.

Observing the blood-soaked clothes on her son, Anna's concern flared up. "Dear, there's so much blood on you. Are you injured anywhere?" she asked with worry in her voice.

"Oh, this? Don't worry, it's not my blood. I'm perfectly fine, no injuries," Yuan quickly reassured his mother Anna. He couldn't bear to see her worried.

Anna's relief was palpable. 'Thank goodness he's okay,' she thought to herself.

"Yuan! Thank you for ridding us of that ungrateful scoundrel, Harrison. My husband did so much for him, yet he betrayed his trust and even conspired to take the Village Head position with his pathetic excuses. Such a disgrace!" Madam Layla approached them with a genuinely grateful smile.

Madam Layla had known about Lord Harrison's plot to seize the Village Head position long before Ava was born. However, she had been powerless to stop it due to her husband's unwavering belief in Harrison's words.

'As if you're any less cunning than him,' Anna thought wryly in response.

"There's no need to thank me. After all, we're a family now," Yuan responded with a smile, glancing at Rose, Ava, and Julie.

Madam Layla was moved by Yuan's words and nodded with warmth in her smile.

Yuan then noticed Rose looking at him with a gentle, loving smile. Her eyes were slightly red, and he could see traces of tears.

"Rose, are you okay? Does witnessing all this bloodshed bother you?" Yuan asked her, his voice full of genuine concern. He assumed she might be feeling overwhelmed after seeing him take so many lives.

"I'm fine. I'm just grateful to you for protecting me and my family from that vile Harrison," Rose assured him.

"You're my wife now. How could I let anyone harm you? It would be cowardly of me not to defend my woman, and I'm not a coward," Yuan replied with a gentle smile.

"I love you, Yuan," Rose blurted out, her face turning slightly red.

"I love you too, Rose."

"We love you too, Yuan!" Julie and Ava chimed in with blushes on their faces.

'I almost forgot Ava and Julie were here,' Yuan thought, looking at them.

"I love all of you as well — Ava, Julie, and Rose," Yuan smiled at them.

A while later, Yuan and his wives left the scene, Madam Layla and her children staying behind. Rose also remained outside with her mother.

As Yuan and his wives departed, Madam Layla looked at Lord Harrison's lifeless body and pondered, 'You're gone now. But how am I supposed to explain your death to my husband? Should I tell him that you brought soldiers to our doorstep, intending to take control of the village? And that my son-in-law ended your life? Sigh! I still can't comprehend why my husband trusted you so blindly.'

A moment later, she turned to a soldier and issued orders, "Gather some men and load these bodies onto a cart. Then dispose of them in the Turner family's residence. If anyone inquires, inform them that they crossed paths with someone they shouldn't have and paid the price. Also, have someone clean up the blood in the area. If it's not dealt with promptly, it'll pollute the air."

"Understood, Madam Layla," the soldier acknowledged before heading off to assemble a team.

After the soldiers had departed, Ava turned to her mother and voiced her concern, "Mom, how are we going to explain this to Lord Harrison's wife? She was a noble Princess before marrying that pig. She won't take this lightly since she lost not only her husband but also her son."

"Hmph! Do you think Haley cares about her husband? If you believe she had any affection for him, you're mistaken. She was coerced into marrying Harrison by her family. Her only concerns are her children and the wealth of the Turner family. Nothing else matters to her," Madam Layla retorted.

"I see..."

"We don't need to worry about their opinions. They were the ones who intended to harm us, not the other way around," Madam Layla added firmly.

A while later, they left the scene, unable to bear the sight of the lifeless bodies any longer.

Moments later, a group of soldiers arrived, accompanied by carts to carry the bodies. They began loading the corpses onto the carts as per Madam Layla's instructions.

Once the task was complete, they meticulously cleaned up the bloodstains from the area.

"Let's move out, we've got a delivery to make," one of the soldiers ordered the others.

"Understood," the other soldiers replied in unison with a subtle smile on their faces.

With that, some soldiers pulled the carts while others pushed them from behind, making their way toward the Turner family's residence.

Meanwhile, news of Lord Harrison Turner's demise, along with his butler and 40 men, spread like wildfire throughout the village.

The revelation left some in shock, but most villagers were relieved by his death due to his numerous misdeeds. Powerless to oppose him, they had been subjected to his tyranny.

"So that wretched pig is finally gone. This is great news."

"I wish I could've seen it happen in person."

"At last, someone stood up for us commoners and punished that vile man. It's as if justice has finally been served."

"My sister's spirit can finally rest in peace now. I hope she witnessed his downfall from above."

Later on, the group of soldiers from the Monore family arrived at the Turner family's estate, the cart loaded with deceased bodies drawing attention.

"Halt! What are the Monore family's soldiers doing here, and why are there dead bodies on that cart?" One of the Turner family guards challenged the approaching soldiers.

Puzzled by the sight of the carts filled with corpses, they couldn't fathom why bodies were being brought to the Turner family manor.

"We're here for a delivery," a Monore family soldier stated while pointing at the cart of bodies with a smug expression.

"A delivery?" The two Turner family guards exchanged a perplexed glance, clearly baffled by the situation.
