Shen Hanyu, the Sister-Complex
Chapter 6 Shen Hanyu, the Sister-Complex
The little girl's pitiful appearance instantly melted Shen Hanyu's heart. He immediately picked her up and gave her a big kiss on her soft little face.
Ignoring the little girl's disapproving look, Shen Hanyu continued to hold her happily, then, as if suddenly remembering something, asked his parents:
"Dad, Mom, Ayu should have awakened her martial soul this year, right?"
Qin Yi rolled her eyes at Shen Hanyu and said:
"Liu Yu is almost seven years old this year, Shen Hanyu, did you leave your brain in the belly of a soul beast while you were out?"
Shen Liuyu pinched Shen Hanyu's cheek with a wronged expression and said:
"Brother, you weren't there for me when I awakened my martial soul."
Shen Hanyu scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, then said:
"Ayu, what is your martial soul? How much innate soul power do you have? Have you obtained a soul ring?"
Shen Liuyu smacked her lips, then pinched Shen Hanyu's cheek and said:
"Brother, my martial soul is the Enamel Crocodile, my innate soul power is level seven, and I haven't acquired a soul ring yet."
"An enamel alligator?"
Shen Hanyu thought for a moment, but couldn't recall any information about this martial spirit.
It's not his fault; when he watched anime in his past life, he only had an impression of the supporting characters and rarely knew them completely.
Seeing Shen Hanyu's confused look, Shen Junhe stepped forward to explain.
"Ayu's martial soul underwent some positive mutations, gaining a slight earth attribute from its original Ice Crocodile form, transforming it into the Enamel Lucky Crocodile."
Shen Hanyu nodded thoughtfully and said:
"A level seven innate soul skill, a mutated martial soul. Ah Yu is almost seven years old now, so she'll probably be breaking through to become a soul master soon."
Qin Yi and Shen Junhe nodded, and the former spoke first:
"We gave Liu Yu a rare herb a few days ago, which directly increased his soul power by one level. Liu Yu now has level nine soul power, and it is estimated that he will be able to break through to become a soul master in a few more months."
Shen Hanyu's eyes lit up, and he then placed Shen Liuyu on the ground. He quickly took out a lotus-shaped medicinal herb from his soul tool.
Qin Yi and Shen Junhe were taken aback, then their expressions changed. They quickly dismissed the surrounding maids and said with serious expressions:
"Xiaoyu, where did you get this thousand-year-old snow lotus?"
Snow lotus is a rare natural treasure from the far north. It can prolong life after ten years, directly enhance soul power after a hundred years, and expand meridians and improve aptitude after a thousand years. It is already considered a rare treasure in this world.
Shen Hanyu smiled indifferently and said:
"When I went to the far north to hunt for spirit rings, my target happened to be guarding this snow lotus. I guess I was waiting for the snow lotus to bloom so I could take advantage of the opportunity to consume it."
"I killed that soul beast, absorbed its soul ring, and this thousand-year-old snow lotus fell into my hands."
Qin Yi delivered a powerful slam to Shen Hanyu's head, grabbed one of his ears, and said viciously:
"You've really gotten bold, haven't you? Daring to venture alone into the far north to hunt for spirit rings! Tell me, what were you thinking?!"
Shen Hanyu cried out in pain repeatedly and quickly explained:
"Mom, be gentle...be gentle, stop pinching me! I'm a Soul Master now, Mom...please be gentle..."
Qin Yi was taken aback, then said incredulously:
"Shen Hanyu! Repeat what you just said to me! You said you're now a Soul Master? Where's the proof? Don't try to fool me. If you dare to lie to me, I'll make you feel like you were spanked when you were a kid!"
Shen Hanyu had unspeakable suffering. A mother worries when her son travels a thousand miles, and now that he has returned, he is still completely suppressed by his mother's love.
Thinking back to the troubles he caused when he was young because he was too precocious, Qin Yi would always grab him and beat him up severely. Every time, he would walk with a limp for at least two days afterward, which almost became a nightmare for him for the rest of his life.
Feeling Qin Yi's grip gradually weaken, Shen Hanyu seized the opportunity to grab Shen Liuyu and dash out. He then placed Shen Liuyu on a nearby table and sat her down. Afterward, Shen Hanyu rubbed his ears and said:
"You're my own mother, who else would I lie to but you?"
Qin Yi snorted coldly, glanced at Shen Junhe, and said:
"You two are alike, father and son; you can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth."
Shen Junhe, an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire, wanted to say something, but after a long pause, he only managed to say:
"My wife is right, it's all my fault."
Qin Yi: ……
Shen Hanyu: ? ? ? !
Shen Liuyu: ●)o(●
Shen Junhe's words plunged all three into silence. After a long while, Shen Hanyu finally spoke slowly:
"Dad, Mom, I'm not lying to you. I really have reached the Soul Master level now. You'll see if you don't believe me."
As he spoke, four spirit rings slowly appeared beneath his feet, emanating a cold and sharp aura.
Shen Liuyu, who was closest to the person, sneezed slightly and instinctively tightened her grip on her clothes.
Qin Yi and Shen Junhe looked at the four spirit rings at Shen Hanyu's feet, exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with boundless shock and disbelief.
After a moment, Shen Liuyu tugged at Shen Hanyu's sleeve and whispered:
"Brother, I'm cold..."
Shen Hanyu then realized what was happening and quickly withdrew his martial soul and soul ring. He then pulled Shen Liuyu into his arms again. Her cold little hands landed on his neck, as if searching for warmth. Shen Hanyu's breath hitched for a moment, and then he hugged the little girl even tighter.
The sister complex is subtly and gradually amplifying...
Qin Yi and Shen Junhe, the couple, looked at the brother and sister nestled together, their eyes filled with satisfaction and warmth. Qin Yi paused for a moment before saying:
"Ah Yu, your spirit rings..."
Shen Hanyu smiled, revealing a set of bright white teeth, and said:
"Mom, during my training, I discovered that the time it takes for a Soul Master to absorb a Soul Ring is directly related to the Soul Master's physical strength and mental power. As long as these two conditions are met, it is possible to absorb even the first Soul Ring for ten thousand years."
"For example, you all thought I absorbed a four-hundred-year-old spirit ring for my first spirit ring, but I actually absorbed an eight-hundred-year-old spirit ring. This proves that what I thought was right all along."
Of course, what you see and experience while surfing the internet in your past life is also a kind of experience, right?
Qin Yi and Shen Junhe exchanged another glance and sighed simultaneously. Then, Qin Yi stepped forward and tapped Shen Hanyu's forehead, saying with some emotion:
"My son has grown up; he's not only a genius, but he's also discovered something so important. So, I'll be entrusting your sister's upbringing entirely to you from now on. Any objections?"
Shen Junhe also stepped forward and said:
"Your mother and I are getting old and our strength is failing us. Now we just want to enjoy our retirement in peace. Son, please grant us this small request!"
Shen Hanyu's lips twitched violently as he listened, but looking at his pitiful little sister's eyes in his arms and the hopeful gazes of the two elders in front of him, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, leave Ayu to me from now on. I promise Ayu will be just as good as me!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yi and Shen Junhe finally smiled brightly and immediately instructed their servants to prepare food, displaying the utmost enthusiasm.
Shen Hanyu and his younger sister in his arms looked at each other for a long while before Shen Hanyu asked:
"Ayu, what's wrong with Mom and Dad...?"
Shen Liuyu shifted her small body, finding a more comfortable position, and said:
"It seems like Mom and Dad are planning to have another baby, a younger brother or sister..."
Shen Hanyu: …………
