Esper X Family – Chapter 671 – Xing Lan Gets a Severe Lesson

Recently, Xing Lan had been hiding inside Ye Yao’s body and hadn’t come out on her own initiative.

Although Ye Yao could forcibly command her to do so, she was more curious to see just how long she could keep playing dead.

She actually wanted to lock her up in a basement to lay eggs. This was practically going against the heavens!

Ye Yao figured that Xing Lan had completely lost sight of who was in charge.

As her master, boss, and best friend… Ye Yao had to straighten her out properly!

Now, with this simple test, Xing Lan had finally stopped acting like a cowardly turtle hiding in its shell and had bravely faced the predicament ahead.

Ye Yao decided to bestow upon her a “reward” befitting a brave soul!

Xing Lan suddenly had a bad feeling. Even though she didn’t have a human constitution that easily produced sweat, she still felt an unnerving chill run down her spine.

She needed to save herself!

Xing Lan decided to beg for mercy, so she threw herself back into Ye Yao’s arms and began to act coquettishly, determined to use a “cuddle attack” to make her forget about all the unpleasantness from before.

“I know I was wrong, Mom~ Mommy~ It was that despicable mental power that eroded my reason back then. That absolutely wasn’t my true intention! That damned【Fission】ability is so harmful! I’ve decided to sever all ties with it and will no longer be controlled by that wheelchair power!”

Sever ties with herself?

Interesting.

Xing Lan was going to extremes to escape this ordeal.

Not only did she try to awaken a nonexistent “motherly love”, she had also spouted a bunch of utterly absurd nonsense.

How could she be so embarrassing?

Ye Yao reached out and grabbed both of Xing Lan’s small wings.

“You don’t think you’re wrong. You just know that you’re about to get a spanking. How did I end up with such an embarrassing pet as you?”

“Guh, if you’ve played with my wings, you can’t touch anywhere else, okay~”

Xing Lan let out a pitiful whimper.

No one would ever guess that the embodiment of the world-ending ability, the being capable of single-handedly taking down the expeditionary fleet, could make such a humiliating sound.

Ye Yao sneered coldly: “Since when are there such rules? A mere cup doesn’t get to make demands. I can do whatever I want to you.”

The thoughts Xing Lan had transmitted back then were nothing short of wild.

To harbor thoughts of devouring her master was bad enough, but she even dared to flip the natural order and swap their positions.

When Ye Yao heard that Xing Lan wanted to treat her like a cup, her fists clenched so tight they nearly went white.

But in front of Silver Frost and Black Haze, she didn’t show any obvious signs of abnormality.

Although Ye Yao had done similar things herself, was that really the same?

At most, she had only ever bluffed verbally.

But Xing Lan truly wanted to “rebel”!

If she hadn’t activated the anti-addiction system back then, Xing Lan might have actually turned her thoughts into reality.

If that had happened, who knows if something like the “ultimate humiliation ¹ A meme that originates from the Hong Kong manhua《Sea Tiger II》, where the main character Bai Cinan was punished after killing his adoptive father and had his power sealed. Then, he was later captured by an enemy and was subjected to the “ultimate humiliation”, where he was toyed with by 4 gay guys for three months and forced to suffer the “ultimate humiliation”, where his genital was cut and stuffed into his mouth. Later on, it was revealed that the true “ultimate humiliation” is the fact that his girlfriend Lan Tongtong had witnessed everything and that the footage was also spread widely. ” might have come out of it.

Right now, she had to ruthlessly interrogate Xing Lan and engrave this profound lesson deep into her instincts, so that she wouldn’t waver even when wielding her power again in the future.

Ye Yao placed Xing Lan on the ground and looked down at her as she sat there in a duck-like pose.

“Now, do it. Right here, right now. This won’t be over unless you produce something. You can do it! If you can’t, I’ll pressure you until you can!”

Xing Lan tilted her head and stared helplessly at Ye Yao.

“Isn’t this a bit too perverted?”

“It’s fine. It’s just the two of us here in private. No one else will know.”

Ye Yao was actually somewhat looking forward to it.

To be honest, she really was a little curious about the whole “bird person lays egg” scenario.

Although it sounded perverted, wasn’t it kind of cool?

Just imagining it gave Ye Yao a slight thrill.

Realizing that she might not escape this after all, Xing Lan let out a soft sigh and suddenly pulled something out from behind her back.

“Actually, I’ve already laid it in secret. Take a look!”

The bird-winged girl held a small, white, oval object in both hands. It was smooth and pristine, almost radiating a sacred aura.

Ye Yao: “?”

What does this mean?

Ye Yao reached out and took it from Xing Lan’s palm, a puzzled expression on her face as she examined it suspiciously, even bringing it close to her nose for a light sniff.

This is Xing Lan’s?

It didn’t seem like anything created by any creature on Bluestar.

A slight perception revealed that its energy density was terrifyingly high, and throwing it would probably blow a building clean through.

If this was a creation of the “World-Ending Ability”, such high energy density made perfect sense.

However, Ye Yao had another way to tell truth from falsehood.

The silver-haired girl gave a faint glance at Xing Lan, who was clearly feeling guilty.

【Xing Lan made this up on the spot to try and charm her way out of trouble, while secretly praying that you will let the matter slide.】

“…”

Ye Yao’s face instantly twisted into a “dead daughter ² ” expression, nearly crushing the object in her hand.

“Not only is your attitude toward punishment perfunctory, but you even dared to fool me!”

Seeing that the jig was up and realizing her punishment would likely double, Xing Lan could only cling to the idea of “finding joy in extreme sorrow” and stuck out her tongue as if in provocation.

“Ehe ³ ~”

As it turned out, Ye Yao’s education wasn’t exactly good education.

Just as a tiger father would never have a dog son, Xing Lan, who was raised on Ye Yao’s very own memories, was no coward either.

Did she think she would grovel and beg for forgiveness after being found out?

That’s how losers think!

She was the embodiment of the world-destroying ability. How could she resort to such cowardice?

Charge forward! Charge forward!!

Ye Yao was nothing but a bluffer. Just watch her talk back!

【Xing Lan has decided to counterattack you on the spot.】

There’s even a rebellious phase?

This was no ordinary rebelliousness! This called for decisive action!

“Hiss!”

Ye Yao could no longer hold back. She lunged at Xing Lan, raising the mysterious creation that had been made solely to brush her off.

Pinned to the ground by Ye Yao, Xing Lan instantly felt something was wrong. Her head-feathers fluttered erratically, and a panicked expression appeared on her face.

“Hey? Boss, what are you doing? Don’t be impulsive!”

“If I didn’t see it with my own eyes, it doesn’t count!”

“Hey!? Wait, I know I’m wrong! Guh—”

【Successfully disciplined your rebellious daughter. Reward: 50 Attribute Points.】

“Xing Lan, not bad.”

Ye Yao delivered her post-action commentary.

A mere Xing Lan trying to climb over the true boss’s head?

She had no idea how to even write the word “master”.

So weak.

Ye Yao casually swatted Xing Lan’s little butt as she lay sprawled on the bed, causing her to let out a pitiful and listless “guh guh” sound.

“Hmph! You little nobody Xing Lan, now you know who’s in charge, right?”

“Wuu~ my tyrannical master…”

Ye Yao ignored Xing Lan’s stubborn retort and, feeling refreshed, opened the system panel to review her recent gains.

Through this period of operations and maneuvering, Ye Yao had farmed another batch of attribute points, bringing the total unallocated points to a full 2,500.

Whether it was from subsequent influence, interference with the parallel world, or interactions with family… all of it had provided massive sources of attribute points.

At this rate, she was only 1,500 attribute points shy of true S-rank.

Ye Yao gently stroked Xing Lan’s little head beside her, her touch so tender that the little one couldn’t help but let out a comfortable humming sound.

By then, what kind of transformation would Xing Lan undergo?
