God Of War Dad

Sean could naturally sense the extremely dense killing intent emanating from these wolf cubs. However, he did not rush to make a decision. Instead, he asked, “What is the situation like in the capital?”

The North Kingdom’s forces of a million soldiers had marched south in a major offensive, threatening the capital. As the ruler of the Shirine Empire, King Roscoe must have countermeasures!

“Well…” Tim Lewis hesitated for a moment before solemnly saying, “According to reliable sources, King Roscoe has already issued orders to urgently summon 500, 000 troops from across the Shirine Empire to defend the capital. He plans to take advantage of the natural barriers of Hill Riverside, located east of the capital, to intercept the North Kingdom’s million-man army. He is preparing for a do-or-die battle there!”

“Also,” he continued, “it seems King Roscoe has secretly recalled Lord Snow, who was stationed in the Tianshan Mountains in the west, and Lord Fisher from the Star Sea in the east. He has ordered them to personally oversee the defense of the imperial capital to ensure its safety!”

“Furthermore,” he added, “there are also rumors that King Roscoe successfully advanced to the Complete Stage more than two months ago. He has also found the most skilled craftsmen in the capital to repair the altar of blood underneath the Hall of Throne and restart the Soul-Devouring Grand Formation, even intending to break through to the Bright Realm in one go!!!”

This was all within Sean’s expectations. With the looming clash between nations, it made sense for King Roscoe to mobilize troops from across the Shirine Empire. Located east of the capital, Hill Riverside was on the path the North Kingdom’s million-man army would take coming down from the north. Intercepting them at the foot of Hill Riverside was a sensible plan to take advantage of the terrain and set up ambushes.

As for the imperial capital, the royal guards had suffered terrible casualties in the previous battle over the capital, including the death of Grand Commander Eliott Garner. Although the imperial guards had greater numbers, their combat strength was far inferior to the royal guards!

Moreover, King Roscoe had only recently inherited the throne, but he himself was not at the Emperor Realm. In the chaotic battle between hundreds of thousands of troops and many Complete Stage cultivators, he likely lacked even the ability to protect himself!

Under such circumstances, it was only natural he would require the personal protection of top-tier cultivators!

In the past, the Shirine Empire had four great kings – General Wolf of the North, the Beast King of the South Forest, Lord Snow in the west, and Lord Fisher in the east.

But now, General Wolf Sean had completely turned against the imperials, while Lord Fergus had been executed by Sean. The only ones left whom King Roscoe could rely on were Lord Snow and Lord Fisher.

Sean did not know the exact cultivation levels and strength of Lord Snow and Lord Fisher. But since they had been able to guard their territories and protect the Shirine Empire’s borders for so long, they must be one-in-a-million top-tier cultivators!

It was highly likely they were powerhouses nearing the Bright Realm, just like Lord Fergus!

With their personal protection, it was no exaggeration to say that even if the Shirine Empire lost this battle and the capital fell, King Roscoe would still have a chance to escape with his life!

This was clearly him leaving himself a way out in the face of mortal peril! Faced with the threat of death, self-preservation was human instinct. Moreover, the royals were ruthless – King Roscoe was a selfish and self-serving man to begin with. So Sean was not surprised at all that King Roscoe would make such arrangements.

What did surprise Sean a little was that King Roscoe had actually found people to repair the altar of blood and restart the Soul-Devouring Grand Formation!

Damn, he had been careless!

He should have completely destroyed the altar of blood when he left the underground altar. He shouldn’t have given King Roscoe a chance to repair it!

As for assaulting the Bright Realm… Sean was very curious – having just entered the Complete Stage, what could King Roscoe use to attempt breaking through in such a short period of time?

The Soul-Devouring Grand Formation?

From what Sean knew, the altar of blood was basically an enlarged, pirated version of the Dragon Refining Cauldron. It was just a large spiritual tool that still required refining other people’s bloodlines to assist in one’s own cultivation. Without sufficiently powerful bloodlines for King Roscoe to refine, what use was repairing the altar and restarting the formation?

A clever wife cannot cook rice without rice!

“Mr. Mason…”

Sensing Sean’s expression and guessing at his doubts, Tim Lewis hesitated and said, “There’s something I’m not sure if I should mention…”

“What is it?” Sean frowned impatiently. “Since when did you start hemming and hawing?”

“Just say it directly!”

Tim Lewis glanced at the Bloody Wolf Group members standing behind Sean and the White Army soldiers surrounding them. His face was full of embarrassment as he gestured and said, “Can we… let them leave first?”

His cautious attitude made people even more curious!

“No need!” Sean shook his head decisively without thinking. “They are all my friends. I have no secrets from them!”

The people here now were either Sean’s sworn brothers through life and death or Sandals’ personally taught disciples. Sean had always been open and upright in his actions, so he naturally had no need to deliberately hide anything!

“Then…” After much hesitation, seeing Sean’s attitude so resolute, Tim Lewis could only take a deep breath and cautiously ask, “There are rumors going around that the daughter of Pierce Porter in the capital…”

“Luna Porter!”

“Is now six months pregnant, and her due date is approaching soon. Many people say the child she’s carrying should be King Roscoe’s, but some also say it’s…”

“It’s Mr. Mason’s own flesh and blood…”

Whoosh!

The moment Tim Lewis finished speaking, exclamations erupted. His soft, whispered words were like a bolt from the blue, immediately causing huge waves of shock among the surrounding crowd!

The wolf cubs behind Sean were stunned!

The White Army women surrounding them were stunned!

Even the normally steady Sandals was goddamn shocked, her heart jolting and pupils contracting sharply, as if she had heard the most impossible thing suddenly happening in this world!

After all, through five months of interaction, everyone present could see Sean’s special affection for Cecilia and Phyllis. They all felt Sean was an extremely loyal man when it came to relationships, completely unmoved even by the secret admiration of great beauties like Pupil Wolf and Julia!

And now, suddenly hearing that another woman was pregnant with Sean’s own flesh and blood, and was even about to give birth…

Damn! How could they not be shocked?

Sean’s towering image as a “super loyal man” in their hearts seemed to completely collapse in an instant!

“General Wolf! This…”

“General, is this true?”

“That woman called Luna Porter, she really has your child in her belly?”

Amidst their shock, everyone’s gazes simultaneously turned towards Sean. The wolf cubs were better – though curious, they did not dare ask out loud. But the White Army women were different – they almost blurted it out immediately!Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Before Sean even admitted or denied it, one White Army woman was already angrily scolding, “Men outside are all bad, not one of them is honest. They’re all two-timing liars!”

“Humph!”

“The general’s wife is still lying unconscious under the Sword of God. Her life or death is uncertain. If the general really did something so shameless, I… I’d even want to quit the White Army!”

“Me too!”

“Me as well!!!”

A single stone caused a thousand ripples. Soon, in the blink of an eye, Sean went from everyone’s revered General Wolf and Master to a despised scumbag!

Damn!

Sean’s face immediately turned blacker than the bottom of a pot!

What the hell???

Sean still had vivid memories of what happened after the Battle of Kats River in the provincial city. Grievously wounded, he had been captured by Luna Porter’s men and imprisoned in the Wrought Iron Hold. After escaping from there and returning to Hilshire, right when he and Cecilia were going to register their marriage, Luna Porter had ruined his happy occasion with a video claiming to be pregnant with Sean’s child!

At that time, Sean did not believe her words at all – not a single one!

Yet somehow, after much hesitation, what Tim Lewis ended up saying was this matter!

Damn it! If Sean had known earlier, he would never have let Tim Lewis bring it up in front of everyone like this, whether it was true or false. He was completely speechless now, beyond any explanation, not even jumping into the river could clear him!

“Dad!”

Just as the White Army women were pointing fingers at Sean, just as Sean was about to try to explain, just as Tim Lewis realized the gravity of the situation and was preparing to stand up for Sean, suddenly Sean felt a tightness around his right leg. Looking down, he saw Phyllis had come to his side at some point and was grabbing his leg while looking up at him with big, teary eyes as she gritted her teeth and asked, “Dad, is what they’re saying true?”

“Did you…”

“Did you really go behind mom’s and my back to make a brother or sister with another woman?”

Thump!

Meeting Phyllis’ tearful gaze, Sean’s heart shattered!
