I would like to express my deepest gratitude to "Shaq_Fu" for the immensely generous gift of two "Inspiration Capsules." Your thoughtfulness and support are truly invaluable, and I am sincerely thankful for your kind contribution.

After Yuan killed the last intruder without showing a hint of hesitation, he flickered his sword 'Empyreal Oblivion,' and all the blood on it vanished, leaving the blade gleaming in the dimly lit room. 

With practiced ease, he swiftly sheathed the sword, storing it securely within his system storage. 

Yuan's gaze then shifted to the lifeless bodies strewn across the floor, their presence a chilling reminder of the recent intrusion.

Turning to his wives, who stood nearby, their expressions a mix of concern and determination, Yuan spoke with a firm voice. "We need to get rid of these bodies and clean up the blood stains. We can't afford to leave any traces behind."

Anna stepped forward, her eyes scanning the room for a solution. asked, "Where should we throw the bodies? If we want to throw them into the river, we have to leave the town." she suggested, her voice tinged with worry.

"But that would be risky. Someone might see us or recognize us." Grace responded. 

Xi Meili, who had been silent up until now, suddenly stepped forward, a wide smile adorning her innocent-looking face. The pair of horns on her forehead gave her an endearingly unique appearance. 

Her mind brimmed with excitement, determined to show her worth and earn her husband's praise. With an eager tone, she exclaimed, "I can help! I can burn the bodies with my flames."

Yuan was surprised to hear that Xi Meili could use fire. Not only he, but his two mothers, Anna and Grace, elder sister, Lily, and beloved Emma, were also surprised.

Looking at Yuan's surprised expression, Nora said, [The Primordial Chaos Dragon possesses a special flame known as the Primordial Chaos Flame. It is one of the most powerful flames in the world, alongside the Vermilion Phoenix Flame. Only those of the chaos dragon kin can wield it.]

Yuan's eyes widened as he absorbed this knowledge, while his lips formed a small smile. "Xi Meili, you can use fire? That's incredible!" he exclaimed, admiration and surprise mingling in his voice. His praise was echoed by the others, who looked at Xi Meili with newfound awe and respect.

Buoyed by their reaction, Xi Meili beamed with joy. "Leave it to me!" she responded, her voice brimming with excitement. Extending her hand toward the lifeless bodies, she summoned forth a mesmerizing mix of black and crimson-red flame. The intense heat licked the corpses, reducing them to ashes within moments, not even leaving a trace of bloodstains on the floor.

Everyone watched the scene unfold, their faces a canvas of surprise. Yuan's astonishment lingered as he regarded Xi Meili with a newfound appreciation. "Your flames are amazing," he said, a touch of wonder in his voice. "It didn't even take a minute to completely burn the corpses to nothingness."

Lily, Yuan's elder sister, couldn't help but mutter her amazement. "How convenient! It saved us so much time. Finally, we can get some rest." 

Anna nodded in agreement, acknowledging the sheer practicality of Xi Meili's unique ability. "Indeed, cleaning up all the blood stains would have been a hassle without Xi Meili's flames," she said, her voice filled with gratitude.

Grace and Emma chimed in, their voices full of admiration. "Xi Meili, you've truly impressed us,"

Grace remarked. 

Emma added with a smile, "Your ability is remarkable, Meili. You've proven to be an invaluable asset to our family."

Xi Meili blushed, her face glowing with happiness. The praise from her loved ones filled her heart with warmth and fulfillment. 

As the events of the night settled down, Yuan let out a sigh. "It's very late now. We should all hit the bed," he said wearily. "If not for those bastard intruders, we would've been asleep long ago."

His two mothers, Anna and Grace, his elder sister Lily, and his beloved Emma nodded in agreement, They began to disperse, each making their way towards their respective rooms.

However, just as Yuan turned to follow suit, a pair of arms wrapped around his own, hugging his arm tightly. He looked down to see Xi Meili, her cute expression pleading silently. "Hubby, can I sleep with you?" she asked, her innocent eyes shimmering with a mix of anticipation and affection.

A gentle smile graced Yuan's face as he gazed at Xi Meili. "Of course, my dear. You can sleep with me whenever you want," he replied tenderly, his voice filled with warmth and love.

Witnessing this exchange, Lily couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy. She stepped forward, a playful pout on her lips. "Well, if Xi Meili gets to sleep with you, then I want to sleep with you too," she declared, her voice teasing but her longing evident.

Yuan's eyes sparkled with amusement as he looked at Lily. He understood her desire to be close to him, even as his older sister. "Lily, you can sleep with me as well," he assured her, his tone gentle and reassuring. "After all, even though you're my big sister, you're also my wife."

A rosy blush bloomed on Lily's cheeks as a sweet smile spread across her face. She looked at Yuan with a loving gaze, her heart swelling with affection. The momentary jealousy faded away, replaced by a deep sense of contentment.

With their arrangements settled, the family finally made their way to their respective rooms. Anna, Grace, and Emma exchanged knowing glances, their hearts filled with joy at the bond that had formed among them. Each of them felt a profound gratitude for the love they shared and the unity that held their family together.

As they lay in their beds, the weariness of the night's events began to give way to a comforting sense of peace. The room fell silent, the only sounds being the soft breathing of those who had fought bravely, and the steady rhythm of their hearts.

In the embrace of sleep, their dreams intertwined with the memories of the day, weaving a tapestry of love and strength. They found solace in each other's presence, knowing that no matter what challenges awaited them, they would face them together.

And so, surrounded by the warmth of their shared love, the family drifted off to sleep, their hearts entwined in a bond that would endure the trials of time.

In the morning, after enjoying a hearty breakfast, Yuan turned to his two mothers, Anna and Grace, his elder sister Lily, and his beloved Emma and Xi Meili. He addressed them with a determined expression. "Now that we're done with breakfast, it's time for us to head to the Hunter's Association and receive our reward for defending the town against the monster horde and slaying the Orc Lord."

Anna nodded in agreement, her eyes reflecting a sense of satisfaction. "Indeed, we've completed all the house chores, so we're free to go whenever we want to," she confirmed.

Lily's voice brimmed with excitement as she chimed in, "The reward must be quite a sum if Association Head Robert said they needed some time to arrange it. I can't wait to see what it is!"

Yuan's eyes sparkled with a mixture of pride and anticipation. "We wiped out the entire horde of orcs and defeated the Orc Lord. It's only natural that the reward will be substantial," he replied, his voice filled with confidence.

Grace added to the conversation, her tone thoughtful. "In addition to receiving our reward, there's something else we need to take care of," she said, her gaze focused. "We must register Xi Meili as a hunter, just like us. It's important for her identity and future endeavors."

Yuan and the others nodded in agreement, acknowledging the validity of Grace's suggestion. Xi Meili, however, wore a confused expression, her innocent eyes searching for understanding. 

She couldn't grasp the concept of the "Hunter's Association" her husband and sisters were discussing. With a curious voice, she turned to Yuan and asked, "Hubby, what is this Hunter's Association you all are talking about?"

Yuan smiled warmly at Xi Meili, realizing her lack of knowledge on the matter. He began to explain, his voice gentle and patient. "The Hunter's Association is an organization that exists in every city and town in this world. They issue various missions related to monster extermination, escorting individuals, and much more. Anyone with a hunter's license can undertake these missions based on their hunter rank."

As Yuan spoke, Xi Meili's confusion began to fade, replaced by a growing understanding. She listened intently, absorbing the information being shared with her. The concept of a hunter's license and the opportunity to take on missions sparked a sense of curiosity within her.

As the explanation came to an end, Xi Meili's eyes lit up with newfound excitement. "That sounds amazing!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with enthusiasm. "I want to become a hunter too, so I can join all of you on these missions!"

Yuan's smile widened, pleased with her eagerness. "Of course, my dear. We'll make sure you're registered as a hunter," he reassured her, his words carrying a sense of unwavering support.

With their plans set, the family members prepared themselves to visit the Hunter's Association. Their hearts swelled with anticipation, both for the reward that awaited them and the prospect of Xi Meili joining their ranks.
