Azure Heaven Saber
Chapter 913 - 913 309 Mimi Huahua

Chapter 913: Chapter 309: Mimi? Huahua? Chapter 913: Chapter 309: Mimi? Huahua? “Chirp!”

Little Bai shot off like an arrow released from the bowstring, transforming into a dark shadow.

Wherever it flew, ripples almost formed in the space.

Its rapid flight was not aimed at Master Zhan Pinting, but at the nine-tailed fox.

As if it desperately wanted to fight the nine-tailed fox to the death.

Reckless disregard for its own safety!

“Little Bai! Don’t, please…”

Zhan Pinting couldn’t help but turn pale with fright, her situation similar to that of Jiang Zhongxue under the Last Quarter Moon; she appeared to have high status but was closely tied to Little Bai’s fate. Should an accident befall Little Bai, she would be cast down into the dust, her honor no more.

And she truly loved Little Bai.

She practically regarded it as a part of her own life.

When she saw Little Bai “pounce” towards the nine-tailed fox, she instinctively thought it was attacking, and she nearly lost her soul in fright.

Because in light of the nine-tailed fox’s recently demonstrated amazing power, even if Little Bai had unique talents and a huge potential for future growth, and its current combat ability was also not mediocre, that was still no use.

If it pounced, it was akin to suicide, or worse, it was like actively seeking death!

Little Bai, don’t sacrifice yourself for me!

Don’t be such a fool!

While Zhan Pinting anxiously watched, the little falcon, like an arrow just released from the string, slowed its speed sharply as it neared the nine-tailed fox.

Zhan Pinting’s bright almond-shaped eyes suddenly bulged out.

“???”

She saw the hawk circle the nine-tailed fox’s head twice, looking exceptionally joyful and excited, nothing like it was about to engage in a fierce battle.

“Chirp chirp chirp chirp!”

Little Bai, at this moment, paid no heed to Zhan Pinting’s thoughts, chirping merrily as it circled, then stopped right in front of the nine-tailed fox and affectionately rubbed against it with its little sharp beak.

The nine-tailed fox, as if incredibly disgusted, slapped over with its paw.

Whack!

It struck the ground.

Don’t touch me!

This action nearly scared Zhan Pinting to death; she could feel something not quite right with her body, an urgent warm sensation about to burst forth.

Yet, she saw Little Bai fly up again, stubbornly rubbing against once more.

“Chirp!”

Then it was slapped down again, only to fly back up and rub once more.

The feeling, the atmosphere, was filled with affection, like family members reuniting after a long separation.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t pay attention to me, I just want to rub!

Zhan Pinting’s beautiful almond eyes were wide open, almost popping out of her skull, as she watched in shock Little Bai shamelessly rub against the nine-tailed fox, which impatiently slapped it away again and again, causing her heart to thump erratically.

At this moment, Zhan Pinting felt as if her worldview had shattered; her consciousness was in chaos!

Was this the same aloof Little Bai that nobody could touch?

Was this the same Little Bai that didn’t even get close to its own master?

Was this the same Little Bai that was so proud it never deigned to look at anyone directly in the sect?

Why was it so humble, so eager to please, so desperate in front of the nine-tailed fox?

Could it be an innate demon beast’s instinct to grovel before the high and kick the low, but that didn’t seem right?

It was like being despised and still eagerly kneel-licking; no, it was more like knowing it couldn’t lick but stubbornly trying anyway, resolved to never regret, unswervingly…

Could it be that these two knew each other already?

But… Little Bai was practically in her hands just a few days after being born. There was no chance or possibility it had met the nine-tailed fox before, right?!

Even though the nine-tailed fox indeed was worthy of being adored, there must be a reason for such closeness, right?

What on earth was going on?

Unlike Zhan Pinting’s confusion, the people of Crescent Moon were filled with a hope for survival.

If Little Bai truly had some sort of relationship with the Demon King, even if just a bit of interaction, would today bring them a chance to live?

If they could survive, what was wrong with groveling?

Furthermore, being able to grovel before a Demon King, that was an opportunity, a tremendous opportunity!

“Chirp chirp…” Little Bai called.

“Eeehm!” Feng Ying looked unimpressed.

“Chirp chirp~~” Little Bai acted spoiled.

“Eeehm!!” Feng Ying remained aloof, pinning Little Bai down with a claw.

It couldn’t let it move anymore, it was just too annoying.

No, it should be said it was too annoying for a cat!

“Chirp chirp chirp chirp…”

Even though Little Bai was firmly pinned down, it still chirped warmly and incessantly.

It had been too long, even being beaten felt comforting and intimate.

Feng Ying couldn’t help but think about flicking it away, playing it like a soccer ball.

A few smacks and it would probably behave.

Feng Yin quickly sent a telepathic message.

“Attend to the main matter first, do not cause unnecessary complications.”

Hence, Feng Ying stood up straight, pinning Little Bai down so hard that its eyes rolled back, while it looked imperiously around.

Then, a powerful divine consciousness vibrated through the void, “Report names!”

Everyone instinctively thought it was the nine-tailed fox in front of them vibrating the divine consciousness. For a moment, they all felt a chilling solemnity, terrified as if facing death.

This Demon King’s divine consciousness was so pure, it was almost like direct communication, just like normal conversation!

“Chen Yuanjing.”

“Meng Youfang.”

“Zhan Zhixiang.”

“…”

People reported their names one by one, their hearts filled with trepidation, unsure of what the Demon King intended. Could it be that it chose who to eat based on whose name sounded pleasant?

The divine consciousness vibrated again, “Chen Yuanjing, Meng Youfang, Chen Bicheng, Zhan Yushu…”

“For the Heavenly Judgment, execute the target, execute!”

The divine will that shook this time was serious and dignified, like that of a judge passing sentence.

“…I sentence you all to death!”

Crack crack crack… The nine-tailed celestial fox’s tails whooshed out in a whip-like motion, and with several cracks, the brains of seven individuals burst open.

When it came to Chen Yuanjing, Chen Yuanjing resisted stubbornly, unwilling to accept his fate. He wielded his sword desperately to defend himself, spewed fresh blood, and retreated more than ten steps. By some lucky chance, he managed to cling onto life, but still fell exhausted to the ground, repeatedly crying out, “Wait! I refuse to accept this, I refuse to accept this!”

“You mighty being, could it be that you are also an assassin of the Heavenly Judge?”

Chen Yuanjing shouted, “Even if you are an assassin of the Heavenly Judge, the Heavenly Judgment has already preordained its plans. With your identity belonging to the demon race, by what right do you overstep your bounds to carry out a mission and kill within our human realms?”

“It’s a rule! It’s an ironclad law that assassins of the demon race execute Heavenly Judgment tasks within their own ranks! I refuse to believe that this frail woman before me is your master!”

“I beseech you to adhere to the iron laws of the mainland!”

This time, there was no response from the divine will, and Feng Ying made her move again. A wind blade condensed in an instant, speeding towards its target.

“Swoosh swoosh swoosh…”

Including Chen Yuanjing, several heads flew off one by one, in a neat and clean execution, all done in one fluid motion.

Since the death sentence had already been declared, why bother with idle talk? It was simply a waste of time.

In less than a hundred breaths’ time, not even enough for a cup of tea to brew, those who had come to pursue under the orders of Crescent Moon Sword, now only Zhan Zhixiang, Zhan Pinting, and two other men had survived.

Although they had preserved their lives, their faces were still pale as ghosts. Looking at the corpses on the ground, they trembled uncontrollably, drenched in a cold sweat, their eyes filled with terror.

Looking at the slowly spreading red on the ground, their minds went blank.

Crescent Moon Sword.

One of the bright moons of the Five Lakes.

The sect’s experts, so easily defeated?

This was too much of a shock to their worldview!

“Chirp chirp chirp…”

The little falcon kept chirping.

Its meaning was roughly… spare these few, give me some face, big sis!”

These people have always been good to me, and they’re not the main target, right? They’re usually very nice…

“Slap!”

Feng Ying pressed the little falcon’s head into the dirt with one of her paws, leaving only its wings flapping helplessly against the ground.

Want some face, do you?

You have no face to speak of! Since you put it that way, I’ll stomp your face into the mud before anything else.

But actions are actions, and thoughts are thoughts.

Since the little falcon had spoken up like that, giving it a slight punishment was a family affair, but face still needed to be given!

And so, the divine will vibrated once more: “The rest of you may leave!”

Zhan Pinting looked at the little falcon struggling continuously on the ground in a poor state: “But my Little Bai…”

Zhan Zhixiang promptly covered Zhan Pinting’s mouth, clearly not wanting her to speak anymore.

In such a dire situation, to be able to save one’s life was already a stroke of incredible luck. Who cared about a pet…

And beside, hadn’t they seen the little falcon recognizing someone? It was likely not in any danger, while staying any longer posed an unpredictable risk for themselves.

But Zhan Pinting truly regarded the little falcon as the apple of her eye, how could she be at ease leaving it behind?

“This little creature has a bond with me,” declared the divine will as it vibrated at the right moment. “Keeping it here will bring only benefits, no harm. When the time is right, it will naturally be let go. You all should leave immediately.”

“But…”

“If you don’t wish to leave, then stay here permanently!”

The divine will reasserted its dominance, its words steeped in icy murderous intent.

Zhan Pinting urgently called out, “Little Bai, I will wait for you a little farther away… don’t be too stubborn, agree when you should, don’t choke… you…”

Zhan Pinting’s repeatedly echoed advice traveled in the distance as she, herself, was dragged away by Zhan Zhixiang.

She continually looked back at the little falcon, with tears streaming down ceaselessly, her eyes filled with unspeakable sorrow and desperation, as if this was a farewell between life and death.

As the people of Crescent Moon Sword left, the scene once again sank into silence.

Only then did Yue Kong and Xia You finally sit down on the ground, looking at each other in bewilderment.

They still didn’t understand what had happened.

How had things changed so drastically, had they been saved?!

This nine-tailed celestial fox… what is its story?

“You…”

“You…”

The two simultaneously and coincidentally blurted out at the same time, turning to look at the nine-tailed celestial fox crouched on the ground, pressing the little falcon’s head into the mud; Yue Kong and Xia You simultaneously bowed.

“Thank you, senior… eh?”

While expressing their gratitude, they got startled for a moment because the nine-tailed celestial fox in front of them was gradually changing its appearance, shrinking from a massive fox into a small, snow-white kitten.

Raising its head and looking at them with a cutesy expression, it gracefully walked with innate pride and said lightly, “Meow?”

The divine will still resonated: “Don’t you recognize me?”

Xia You and Yue Kong instantly swallowed the words about to leave their mouths, completely flabbergasted and at a loss.

How could they not recognize it?

Wasn’t this the beloved cat of their gentle boss?

The formidable cat that almost ate my Chi Snake for a meal on the very first day we met!

“Mimi?” Xia You exclaimed joyously.

“Hua Hua?” Yue Kong was also suddenly baffled.

They didn’t know Feng Ying’s name and simply used common local nicknames for cats.

But their joy was unmistakable.

Oh my god… it’s actually the boss’s cat!

Feng Ying was speechless: Mimi? Hua Hua? What kind of ridiculous names are these!

Suddenly…

There seemed to be commotion from behind, and instinctively turning around, they saw their long-lost gentle class leader, smiling gently at them.
