[Chapter:32][Good night]

"She is" "big brother's" "daughter?"

The twins looked at the cutely snoring Ai sleeping in Al's embrace with blank eyes.

"A father at six…what a pervert…!"

Xiao Wu, who had been chatting with the twins before Al appeared, shivered as she took a step away from Al, making him smile wryly.

"Yes, this is Ai, my daughter. So, why don't you say hi to your big sisters?"

Ai snapped awake, as though her snores were just a lie, and she glanced at the three girls present and lifted her hand up as she waved.

"Mama! I have three mamas!"

"…"

"…" "…"

"…"

All four children present, including Al, fell speechless at her excitement.

"No, Ai, they aren't…"

"Yes" "we are" "your" "mamas."

'Oi, don't take advantage of this.'

Al looked at the twins who practically snatched her away from his hands and were currently rubbing her cheeks while playing with her, and felt rather speechless.

"Wait! Why am I included as well!?"

"Mama?"

Ai looked at Xiao Wu with her large, adorable eyes, and stretched her hands towards her.

"Hug?"

"Ugh!"

Poor Xiao Wu, before she could even retort the sentence, she felt like an arrow pierced her heart.

[{Wait, won't she find out about her heritage at this rate?}]

'…Ah Yin?'

Al blinked at the voice he heard in his mind, and a phantom of a beautiful young woman with long blue hair and a pair of sapphire like eyes appeared next to him, her skin fairer than snow, smooth like jade…

Well, you get the idea.

[{Yes, it appears I can appear outside as and when I wish to. And I can also choose to be visible to you alone.}]

Al nodded while Ella chose to reply to Ah Yin's question.

((She will when she touches her, but not completely. Ai is a Spirit, after all. Although a very special Spirit who can cultivate using both human and Soul Beast methods, she is still a Spirit.))

((Meaning she has three different kinds of aura around her, that of a human, of a Soul Beast, and of a Spirit. Although her connection to you and, in turn, to me, let's me hide her aura, 100,000 year old Soul Beasts and Titled Douluos and sense these auras with physical contact.))

And as if to prove her statement, the moment the Xia twins handed Ai to Xiao Wu, who awkwardly picked her into her embrace, she froze.

((Of course, they wouldn't be able to identify her fully. They would only assume she is a half-breed between a human and a Soul Beast, which, while very, very rare, isn't impossible. There are records of progeny between 100,000 year old Soul Beasts and ignorant humans before, although none of them survived long as their bodies and souls soon collapsed.))

And indeed, Xiao Wu's eyes shook as she looked at the adorably smiling Ai in her hands, her eyes showing a clear look of pity. She gently embraced Ai and rubbed her head while she looked at Al doubtfully.

"I'm six, and she looks 3 or 4 already. You think I impregnated someone as a 2 year old toddler?"

Xiao Wu snapped out of her thoughts and blushed deeply while the Xia twins looked at each other and then at Al.

""It's possible.""

"…"

Al rolled his eyes and decided to ignore them, and then looked at the arrangements of beds with a raised brow.

"Why are these four beds placed together?"

"Ah, that…", the beet red Xiao Wu stuttered as she tried to look at Al, but failed as her eyes darted around.

"I…I don't have a good blanket, and Xia Yan and Xia Yun already gave theirs to the boys saying they would sleep with their big brother, so…"

She looked away as her blush deepened, while Al looked at the twins with a raised brow.

All he got in return, however, was a double thumbs up from them as they worded out 'You're welcome'.

Al chuckled softly as he nodded.

"Sure, we can share the blanket, it's big enough anyway."

"Th-thank you!"

Then, time passed with the Xia twins and Xiao Wi who had a complicated expression on her face playing with Ai. Al looked at them with a gentle smile and a fatherly expression while telepathically chatting with Ah Yin sitting next to him in her invisible state and Ella who was bored out of her mind, stranded wherever she was all alone.

((It's nice to have you, sister Yin. It was so boring when I could only talk to this horny sex addict for six whole years. God! I can't believe I even survived this long.))

"…"

[{Haha, it's good to be here too, sister El. You are the one who saved me with his help, right? Thank you for that.}]

"…"

'Who's a horny sex addict? You abandoned your love the moment you got a girl you can talk to?'

'So my role in bringing you back to life is just going to be ignored?'

'Also, you two do realise you're using my mind to speak to each other, right?'

'If you keep ignoring me, I'm really going to start collecting rent, you know?'

Al sighed as he looked at the four little girls playing with each other.

"Hey, it's time to sleep. Tomorrow's the first day and you don't want to be late, do you?"

"Oh! Right! I completely forgot!"

Xiao Wu, who is the poorest of the bunch and had to work to live, shot up and quickly climbed onto the bed before moving to the corner.

"Sleep time?", Ai asked as she looked at Al cutely.

"Yes, sleep time Ai. Why don't you come to papa?"

"Yes~!"

She ruthlessly abandoned her mamas, the Xia twins who glared at Al, who just laughed as he scooped his 'daughter' up into his arms and hugged her and he fell onto the bed.

"Don't sleep" "without us."

The twins ran over and occupied both sides of Al, before they covered themselves with the blanket.

"Now that I think about it, why is this blanket so big anyway?"

Xiao Wu looked at the boys' blankets, which were clearly smaller than the one she was beneath, and asked curiously.

"To fit" "more people."

The twin's answer made her lips twitch.

"Of course."

"No more talking.", Al shushed them as he gently caressed Ai's little head.

"Good" "night" "big" "brother."

"Er…good night."

[{Good night, human.}]

((Good night Al.))

"Good night everyone."

'Good night readers.'
