My Celestial Ascension Chapter 1055: Returning Home

The entire area surrounding the building fell into a ghostly silence after Yuan killed the gang leader. He hadn’t even bothered to ask who had commissioned the gang to carry out their actions.

He already knew exactly who was behind the threats and psychological torture inflicted upon Sister Mary and the children.

"Now, only the CEO of Lunar Corporation remains... Matthew Lane, the father of that little bastard, Marcus Lane."

Yuan walked over to Tim’s lifeless body. Carefully, he wiped away his fingerprints from the phone before retrieving it and slipping it into his pocket.

A short while later, Patricia emerged from the building, wearing an awkward and confused expression.

Her eyes immediately landed on the countless dead bodies scattered across the ground. The overwhelming stench of blood filled the entire area.

She was visibly shaken by the sheer number of corpses surrounding her. Blood pooled beneath the bodies, while severed limbs lay scattered across the ground.

’H-He killed them all... He actually murdered them...’

Patricia gasped, instinctively drawing in a sharp breath.

Her stomach twisted at the horrifying sight, and a wave of nausea washed over her.

She felt her consciousness slipping away as her vision gradually darkened.

"Patricia!"

Yuan immediately rushed forward and caught her before she could collapse onto the ground.

"Hey! Can you hear me? Say something!"

However, no matter how much he called out to her, she didn’t respond.

Yuan quickly checked her pulse and sighed in relief.

"Oh, she’s just unconscious... You almost gave me a heart attack."

He released a long breath, relieved that nothing serious had happened to her.

"We should get out of here. The police could arrive at any moment."

Yuan gently lifted Patricia into his arms, carrying her like a princess as he headed toward his car.

However, instead of getting inside and driving away, he simply stored the entire vehicle inside his System Storage.

Holding Patricia securely in his arms, he rose into the sky and flew straight toward his villa.

As they soared through the air, Yuan couldn’t help but glance at Patricia’s beautiful face. She looked remarkably peaceful as she rested in his arms.

The gentle breeze brushed against her hair, causing Patricia to slowly stir.

She gradually opened her eyes, only to find Yuan’s face right in front of her.

Her eyes widened in surprise when she realized she was being carried in his arms. Instinctively, she tried to pull herself away, but Yuan held her firmly.

"Hey, easy! We’re extremely high up in the air. If you fall, you won’t survive the impact," Yuan said urgently, trying to calm her down.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Patricia looked at him in confusion. However, when she raised her head and saw the clear blue sky above them, she froze.

Then she cautiously looked down.

Her eyes widened to their absolute limit.

"W-WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THIS?! WE’RE FLYING?!"

She exclaimed in utter disbelief.

"H-How is this even possible?! Am I still dreaming?!"

She looked at Yuan’s face, genuinely wondering whether she was trapped in some bizarre dream.

Unable to process what was happening, she closed her eyes, thinking that doing so might finally wake her up.

"You’re not dreaming, Patricia. We’re actually flying."

Instead of waking up, however, she heard Yuan’s voice accompanied by a soft chuckle.

"Open your eyes and take a look. We’re really up here in the sky."

Patricia slowly opened her eyes again.

And sure enough, they were flying!

Although she initially felt incredibly nervous, her fear gradually faded, replaced by an overwhelming sense of excitement.

She looked down and saw the entire city spread out beneath them. The cars on the roads looked like tiny toys, and even the massive buildings appeared surprisingly small from their current altitude.

She could even recognize the building where her office was located.

"T-This is unbelievable... We’re really flying..."

She murmured in a dazed voice, still struggling to comprehend what she was experiencing.

"This is nothing. I can do much more than just fly," Yuan said with a confident smirk.

Soon, they arrived at the villa.

Yuan retrieved his car from his System Storage and carefully placed it in the parking space before carrying Patricia inside.

Meanwhile, Anna, Grace, and the others were waiting for him in the living room.

The moment Yuan entered with Patricia in his arms, everyone’s eyes immediately landed on them.

Strangely enough, every single one of them wore an unusual expression.

"Umm... What’s going on here?"

Yuan asked nervously as he noticed the strange expressions on his wives’ faces.

"Big Brother, run away! Everyone is angry with you."

Little Zoe spoke with a playful smile from her mother’s lap.

"Angry with me? Why?" Yuan asked, looking at the little girl in confusion.

"Look at the time, you idiot!" Lily snorted coldly, pointing toward the clock.

Yuan followed her finger and glanced at the clock. His eyes immediately widened in disbelief.

It was already midnight!

He had been away from home for five whole hours without informing anyone where he was going.

Realization struck him, and he slowly turned toward Anna Grace with an awkward, somewhat fearful expression.

"M-Mom... I-I can explain..."

He gathered his courage and looked into her eyes, his voice trembling slightly.

"Then explain quickly. And if your reason isn’t good enough, you better prepare yourself to get your ass spanked!" Anna Grace snorted coldly.

Patricia was practically petrified as she watched Yuan trembling before his mother.

She was utterly shocked by the scene unfolding before her, almost unable to believe her eyes.

’What am I even witnessing right now?!’

She stared at Yuan in disbelief.

’Yuan... The same man who single-handedly slaughtered hundreds of gang members just a few hours ago is actually afraid of his mother?! What am I even watching?!’

Meanwhile, Yuan began explaining everything to Anna Grace and the others, telling them where he had gone with Patricia and what had happened there.

Only after hearing his entire explanation did their anger finally subside.

"Oh! I thought you had secretly gone on a date with Patricia. I’m sorry for misunderstanding!"

Anna Grace immediately pulled Yuan into a hug and showered his face with kisses.

"Mom! Patricia is watching..." Yuan protested, his cheeks burning with embarrassment.

Patricia simply stared at them with a dazed expression, unable to believe how quickly everyone’s attitude had changed.

’This family is really weird...’

She thought inwardly before releasing a soft sigh.

Anna Grace then turned toward her.

"Why are you just standing there? Come and sit with us."

Once Patricia had settled down, Anna Grace turned her attention back to her son.

"So, you completely eradicated the gang that had been tormenting Sister Mary and the children?"

"Yes. I killed every last one of them. However, I’ve only cut down the weeds. I haven’t completely uprooted them yet."

Yuan replied with a soft sigh.

"And do you know who’s behind their aggression toward the orphanage?"

"Yes. It’s Matthew Lane, the CEO of Lunar Corporation. He wants to acquire the property where the orphanage is located. Since Sister Mary refused to sell it, he sent those thugs to intimidate her into changing her mind."

Yuan answered, his voice gradually turning cold.

’What?! Matthew is the one behind the gang?! This is unbelievable!’

Patricia screamed internally, struggling to process the revelation.

"Wait a second."

She suddenly spoke, looking at Yuan with a serious expression.

"Is what you’re saying really true?"

"Yes. Sister Mary personally told me," Yuan nodded before continuing. "The gang started causing trouble for the orphanage shortly after she refused to sell the property."

He paused briefly before adding,

"And Sister Mary has absolutely no reason to lie to me. After all, she has never lied to me in my entire life."

"I know Matthew is a truly vile person... but I never expected him to stoop this low. Trying to take away a shelter meant for orphaned children? That’s completely unacceptable!"

Patricia spoke, her voice trembling slightly with anger.

After all, Matthew had also been targeting her company. He had made several proposals, repeatedly attempting to persuade her to sell it to him.

’He truly made a monster his enemy...’

She sighed inwardly, stealing a glance at Yuan.

She had personally witnessed just how merciless Yuan could be toward his enemies. Once someone became his enemy, he showed absolutely no hesitation in dealing with them.

And after witnessing what he was capable of, Patricia was certain of one thing.

Matthew Lane’s countdown had already begun.

Yuan would never allow him to walk away peacefully.

A moment later, Anna Grace turned toward Patricia with a warm smile.

"Patricia, how about staying at our house tonight? I’ve already prepared dinner for you as well."

"Are you sure? My house is only a few meters away," Patricia asked, surprised by the sudden invitation.

"It’s fine. Just spend the night here and leave in the morning. You don’t have to worry about being late for work," Anna Grace replied with a gentle smile.

Shortly afterward, Anna Grace left the living room and headed toward the dining area to arrange the plates on the dining table.

Meanwhile, Patricia turned toward Lily and asked curiously, "Are you guys really from another world? Yuan told me that all of you came from a different world. Is that actually true?"

"Oh? Yuan already told you that?" Lily raised an eyebrow and glanced at her brother.

"Well, he told me after I witnessed his superhuman speed and those strange abilities. I was really curious, so I asked him," Patricia replied, stammering slightly as her cheeks turned a faint shade of red.

Lily let out a soft sigh before nodding.

"Yes. He wasn’t lying to you. We’re really from another world."

She then turned toward Emma, who was sitting nearby.

"In fact, Emma here isn’t even human."

Lily pointed at Emma with a mischievous grin.

"And she’s not the only one. Many of his wives aren’t human either. They belong to entirely different races."

"Indeed."

Kitsura chuckled softly before removing her disguise.

"I belong to the Mystic Fox Clan, and I’m a Nine-Tailed Fox."

As soon as she finished speaking, her fox ears and nine magnificent, fluffy tails manifested behind her.

Her appearance transformed into something truly majestic, radiating an otherworldly charm.

Patricia’s eyes widened as she stared at Kitsura, completely stunned by the incredible sight before her.
