Chapter 279: 8.6 First Blue Star - Grandad! Mom! Look!
The sun had just risen to the sky illuminating the whole area in light. Once the day had begun, everyone in the Oberion Empire had to wake up from their slumber.
At the First Military School's dormitory.
Bai Yuyan was awakened by his quantum beast, Stella, in the middle of his meditation. A rough tongue licks his face when Bai Yuyan opens his eyes, feline irises that match the same shade of purple as his eyes appear in front of him.
[Master, it's morning. Please take a bath. You need to pick up Young Lord Feng Jing before classes begin. It's one of your tasks as his bodyguard.]
"Fine~," said Bai Yuyan as he stood up from his meditation and headed to the bathroom.
After half an hour of preparations, he heads to the Dean's office as per the message he had received from his communication device. He is to accompany Feng Jing's aide, Feng Wu, to pick him up at the Feng Mansion...
Feng Wu is a student like the rest of them by a year higher. Feng Jing and Bai Yuyan were in their second year while Feng Wu is in their third year. He is someone from the Feng branch. He had been serving Feng Jing since they were children.
Feng Wu possesses red-orange hair and lighter shade brown eyes as he was not a direct bloodline of Feng which means his quantum beast is not a phoenix. He is an awakened and unpaired guide. His quantum beast is a fire fox. His features were ordinary but his temperament is tranquil and calm.
Once you've met his almond-shaped red-orange eyes you would feel that he is observing you too close and down every single detail. Bai Yuyan was a bit startled meeting Feng Wu's eyes.
In his mind, he asked his system and quantum beast to give him this character's profile
[Name: Feng Wu
Age: 20
Type: Guide (Awakened)
Quantum Beast: Fire Fox
Special Bloodline: None
Physique: A+
Spirit: S+
Overall potential: SS+]
Bai Yuyan murmured, "As expected this person is strong."
His thoughts, 'My intuition towards people was still working. How come when looking at the silly young master, Feng Jing yesterday. I could feel he is a lot stronger than this one called Feng Wu but his potential is only SS.'
Dean Astra smiles at Bai Yuyan who just arrived. "Student Bai, you're here. Let me introduce to you Xiao Jing's aide, Feng Wu. Since you were going to work together it's better to get along."
Feng Wu approached Bai Yuyan and reached out his hand, "Feng Wu, third year. I will also be joining you in the competition. Pleased to meet you, Student Bai."
"Pleasure is all mine, Senior Feng," said Bai Yuyan.
Feng Wu spoke, "I hope you take good care of the young lord while in class as I could not accompany him there."
"I promise. I will," said Bai Yuyan.
Dean Astra was smiling at these two outstanding students. With these two around things would be better around his little nephew. Now he only has to find a few sentinel children to protect these three.
It didn't take a while for these two to take a ride prepared by the Feng Clan to bring them over to the Mansion. When their shuttle stopped at the entrance they were blocked by two sentinel guards which at least possessed S rank strength.
Feng Guards blocked their entrance, "Identification checkpoint. Please show us your ID."
Bai Yuyan and Feng Wu raise both temper communication devices near the opened shuttle window and let the guards check their identities.
"Aide Wu and Student Bai, your arrival has been approved."
Only then the guards had allowed their shuttle to pass through the gates of the Feng Household.
Bai Yuyan asked, "Is it always this strict in this place?"
"Yes, the Feng Clan's Mansion is protected land. It is normally impossible to enter without an appointment a day ahead. The only reason your entry had been approved is because the Patriarch had registered your name under Young Lord Feng Jing like mine.
Now you should be able to enter the mansion with just your ID as long as Young Lord Feng is in the mansion." explained Feng Wu.
This is Bai Yuyan's first time seeing a large place and just call it a mansion. From the world, he comes from. A place this big can already be considered as a palace instead.
Bai Yuyan murmured, "This place... Is too big? It's like a palace~"
"The real imperial palace is bigger than this one. Moreover, this place can be considered small as the only ones who live here are the direct bloodline of the Phoenix Family and their aides," said Feng Wu.
Bai Yuyan asked, "You've seen the Imperial Palace?"
"Yes. Whenever Lord Jing comes over to visit his elder sister..." answered Feng Wu.
[Master, Feng Jing's elder sister, Feng Yue, is married to the Crown Prince, Zenith Regulus.]
"Do you live here too?" asked Bai Yuyan.
Feng Wu answered, "Yes, I am after all Young Lord Feng Jing's aide."
Upon their arrival in the mansion, they were welcomed with the other aides of the other members of the Feng Family. There are no servants as the mansion is being cleaned by AI robots 24/7.

The one at the door is Feng Xu and Xue Lan. They were both looking in their mid-forties. They both smiled at the arrival of Feng Wu and Bai Yuyan.
Feng Xu spoke, "Is this the child that will be Young Master Jing's bodyguard?"
"Yes, Grandpa Xu. Good morning Grandpa Lan," said Feng Wu.
Xue Lan is a man of few words but he still nods at the greeting of the child and pats his head gently. He also didn't forget to greet the guest.
Feng Wu says, "Please don't mind my wife. He hates talking."
At this moment, twin siblings just came down at the right time to inform the kitchen to prepare and serve breakfast when the Elders and Lords are coming down. After coming out of the kitchen they noticed Feng Wu and a new kid appearing at the doorway.
Feng Ouya and Feng Yae look like they've just entered their thirties and still look a bit in their twenties. In short, they have fewer wrinkles than Feng Xu and Xue Lan.
Feng Ouya, "A'Wu, is it time to pick the baby of the family?"
"Please don't call my master, baby, Uncle Ouya," says Feng Wu.
"Brother stop teasing Xiao Wu ba~," says Feng Yae.
Feng Ouya murmured, "It's not like I am wrong Young Master Jing is indeed this Clan's Baobei~"
Feng Wu chose to ignore this childish adult and told Bai Yuyan to follow after him. They walk towards the East Courtyard where the youngest generation lives. With Feng Wu in the lead, they reached Feng Jing's room.
At first, Feng Wu knocked on the door a few times after waiting for 10 minutes and no one still answered Feng Jing had to open the room with his spare key and enter. Bai Yuyan was surprised to see Feng Wu having a key to his Master's room.
Feng Wu says, "Please don't look at me like that. This key is personally given to me by Lord Jing. The reason for this you'll know when you see it. Follow me to the Master's bedroom."
Following Feng Wu, they head to the inner room on the left side. Feng Wu knocked on the door a few times only to sighed and opened the door as if it had been done a few more times in the past and then what happened next shocked the two.
As soon as the door to the Master's bedroom was opened, Feng Wu and Bai Yuyan were assaulted with the sweet yet peppermint scent from the room. The aroma was so overwhelming that those who had smelled it fell into a state of intoxication.
Bai Yuyan fell into a state of charm. "W-What is this fragrance... S-So nice... Want to smell more..."
[Master!!! Get out of the room! The effects of this pheromone are intoxication and worse, its control!!!]
Unfortunately, the former mercenary king had no experience with things with regards to someone's pheromones especially for a special one like this with a unique effect.
Feng Wu, who is an awakened guide, knew too well what this fragrance is. This is the pheromone owned by a guide who is about to awaken but... this is the first time he had experienced a pheromone with an effect of charm.
He slapped himself awake and grabbed Bai Yuyan and ran out of the room forcefully. After closing the door in the bedroom he turned on the humidifier inside the whole quarters, this is to prevent the fragrance of Feng Jing's pheromone from spreading outside of this room.
In just a span of a few short moments this newly awakened guide had fallen in a state of intoxication and his cute face tainted with red blush as if he was drunk.
Feng Wu's state is not that calm as well as the cold feel his body is heating at this moment. The effects of his Master's pheromones are a bit too much for an ordinary guide to bear.
"Thankfully it was me who entered the Young Master's room first. If it's someone else I don't know what would happen to them!" Feng Wu murmured as he glanced at Bai Yuyan who seemingly fell into a drunken state.
After sending the message to the elders and lord, Feng Wu stares coldly at Bai Yuyan as if he wants to kill him. It was at this moment that Stella materialized in reality to protect his master.
With the sudden appearance of a fierce black leopard appearing out of nowhere, Feng Wu's fire fox appeared in thin air as well and took a protective stance in front of Feng Wu.
Feng Wu understood that Bai Yuyan's quantum beast misunderstood him.
"I was only going to get him to take a shower to remove his current drunk state. Since you've appeared yourself, bring him to that room over there. That's the bathroom, wake him up before the elders come up!" said Feng Wu who unbuttoned his collars and crossed his legs to force out the pheromones that entered his body with his spirit.
He meditates for a while until his reddish face slowly fades and only sweats can be found on his body. His state completely returned to normal when the door to this room was forcefully opened.
The ones who entered the room were all guides. Xue Xia, Navi Luna, and their aides.
Navi Luna looks around the place worriedly when she hears that her baby had started his awakening as a guide and his pheromones had a special effect that could cause those who smell it to fall into a state of intoxication.
"Xiao Wu. Where's my baby?!" asked Navi Luna.
Feng Wu weakly answered, "Bedroom. I've turned on the humidifier so the scent should be lessened."
Xue Xia pats his head gently and says, "Good work child, leave the rest to us!" Then he entered the Master's bedroom with only Navi Luna.
The other aides, Xue Lan and Feng Yae stayed in the living room to guard the door. Feng Yae helped the weakened Feng Wu who was sitting on the floor to sit on the nearby couch.
Xue Lan noticed someone was missing, "Where is the other kid?" he asked.
"Grandpa Lan, I've asked his quantum beast to drag him into the bathroom to cool his head. To our surprise, we were both directly assaulted by Lord Jing's pheromones. I am okay as I've been awakened for a year at least but Student Bai just awakened recently. He still does not know how to guide his spirit to force out the pheromones in his body." explained Feng Wu.
An obvious frown appeared on Xue Lan's face. As one of the oldest aides serving the Feng Family, their priorities were their Master's first and the Master's family as second and only their lives as third.
Xue Lan, "Teach him how to do it as soon as possible. If this happens again I will have to tell the master to replace him."
"Come on, the boy would only work with us for a month. Don't be too strict Uncle Lan~ Moreover, the boy had just awakened and was a commoner, it is normal for his knowledge about some things to be lacking," said Feng Yae.
Xue Lan said, "It would be too late if something happens. Still teach him how to properly control his spirit qi, Xiao Wu."
"Understood, Grandpa Lan."
Meanwhile, inside the Master's bedroom, Xue Lan and Navi Luna immediately frowned as soon as they entered the room. The humidifier had indeed lessened the effect on them but this doesn't mean it had no effect. They had to coat their whole body with spirit qi and prevent the pheromones from affecting them.
Xue Xia murmurs, "It really has an effect on intoxication and charm. If Xiao Jing learns to control his own pheromones he would be able to control someone with it."
Navi Luna walked towards her peacefully sleeping son. She was smiling so sweetly when she noticed the round thing his baby was hugging in his arms.
"Dad! Look at this!?" exclaimed Navi Luna as she pointed at the object her son was hugging.
Xue Lan was also shocked by what he saw. He was not shocked by what that thing was, but by how large it was. It had the size of half the child's height. Looking at how Feng Jing is hugging it to sleep curling around it made it look funny.
Pfft! Clicked!
He took a few pictures of his grandson's sleeping figure before putting on a live stream of what is happening in the room to those Sentinels who couldn't enter inside the room.
"Dad~" calls Navi Luna after noticing her dad-in-law forgetting their purpose here.
Cough! "Okay, wake Xiao Jing up for now," says Xue Xia.
Navi Luna, the mother of Feng Jing, walks towards her youngest and gently wakes him up.
"Darling~ darling~ wake up for mommy okay?" says Navi Luna.
Feng Jing languidly murmurs, "Mommy?"
The beautiful young man on the bed groggily opens his phoenix-shaped revealing a pair of deep crimson irises. The few drops of tears in the corner of his eyes make him look adorable yet seductive. Thankfully, the child hasn't fully matured yet.
Xue Xia muttered, "Thankfully this child hasn't fully matured yet. With these natural seductive gestures and pheromones with charming effects, I wonder how many men would fall under my grandson's foot."
"Grandad? Mom? Why are you in my room?" asked Feng Jing as he sat up from his bed only to slip on the smooth surface of the thing beside him. He even hit his nose on it. "Ouchiiee~ what is this?"
With a red nose, Feng Jing confusedly hugs the huge round thing in his arms. Then his gaze alternates on his family and the huge round thing in his hand. After recognizing what the thing is in his arms, Feng Jing happily announced.
"Grandad, Mom look! Xiao Jing had laid an egg!!!" said Feng Jing.
What followed afterward were loud waves of laughter from within the Feng Mansion.
