Chapter 151: Spouting Fragrance, Duanzhou Second Hospital (6k)

"I don’t know, the doctor couldn’t figure it out either. Just a few days ago, all of a sudden he started throwing up badly, puked up everything he ate. It’s been days now, he’s all listless, hasn’t eaten anything..."

The two of them were still talking when they saw a woman come out of the exam room, holding a baby in her arms.

"Bang bang..."

Wen Yan’s heart suddenly started pounding like crazy; that feeling of restlessness was especially intense at this moment.

Wen Yan walked forward, looking at the sleeping baby with his eyes shut, overwhelmed by this familiar and intimate feeling.

Wen Yan was completely stunned.

"Bro, when did you pick up this kid? Where’d you find him?"

"Ah..." Pei Tugou was startled. "How did you know?"

"I could tell at a glance..."

"Just last month. That night, I heard some noise in the woods, so I took a look and saw a naked baby lying there."

Pei Tugou looked at the sleeping baby, worry clouding his brow.

"He’s always getting sick. Maybe his health is bad, that’s why he got abandoned. But I saw him, couldn’t just leave him there."

Wen Yan felt his mind about to explode. He pressed for the specifics on the timing, and his head spun even harder.

He looked at the little baby, and instantly, a notification popped up in his mind.

"Soul Devouring Beast (In Transition).

Congratulations, you finally found him.

The Invincible Soul Devouring Beast has no natural enemy.

His invincible tag means immunity to all known external harm.

Any and all changes may only be made at the Soul Devouring Beast’s own choice.

You gave your soul to him—a soul that cannot be digested by the Soul Devouring Beast.

You also gave him a choice.

He can stay the same, keep being invincible.

Or he can break down his invincible tag, become not invincible, gain a natural enemy, but reach a higher level of existence.

He made his choice, dismantling his invincible tag little by little.

He used your soul to start his transition path.

No doubt about it, his soul is yours, his blood is yours.

He is your own son, even closer than kin by blood.

Congrats, you’re a dad now! Surprise? Happy?

Wen Yan’s face was both laughing and crying.

Hearing Pei Tugou describe the details, everything suddenly made sense.

Because, during the descent, he had met him.

So he arrived early!

This little punk showed up several hours before Scorching Sun Department’s to-the-second forecast!

And after arriving, just like the records in the Scorching Sun Department, just like the old Flame Demon.

When he first descended, he was just a weakling—unbelievably weak.

And the spot where he landed, just happened to be where Pei Tugou would cross paths and discover him?

If you say this little punk didn’t do it on purpose, Wen Yan’s not buying it.

Only someone honest like Pei Tugou would, even after hesitating, still take care of him.

Damn it, I’ve been fighting Fake Mo Zhicheng to the death, Scorching Sun Department has been running around in circles for ages.

No one ever noticed that Pei Tugou picked up a baby.

Because everyone believed the Scorching Sun Department’s prediction, down to the very second, would never miss.

Who would notice that, just a few hours earlier, some ordinary honest man picked up a kid, and when he saw the kid was sick, actually took him to see a doctor with his own money?

The Soul Devouring Beast’s transition didn’t fail, didn’t turn back into the original Soul Devouring Beast, all because a kind, ordinary person refused to give up.

Wen Yan was honestly speechless.

Next to him, Pei Tugou saw Wen Yan’s changing expression and couldn’t help but ask,

"Wen Yan, what’s up with you?"

"Nothing. Don’t worry, he’ll be fine. He’ll be just fine."
