Chapter 499 - 0499: The Past of the Fox Clan

Chapter 499: Chapter 0499: The Past of the Fox Clan

For one whole day, Long Fei meditated in his office.

Aside from his body engaged in Qi Refinement, his Divine Sea was also comprehending the Alchemy Rules.

Now his physical body and Divine Sea could operate independently, each focusing on their respective tasks.

It felt as though his consciousness was peeling away from his physical form, mysterious and profound, and quite wondrous.

Recently, his spiritual power had surged, and he was now ready to attempt refining some low-level pills.

With pills, the speed of cultivation would be even faster.

During lunch, Bai Xiaochun brought boxed meals for Long Fei and Lin Yingying, acting as though preoccupied with something, speaking less than usual.

Lin Yingying couldn’t help but stare at her for a bit, wanting several times to ask her what was on her mind, but in the end, she held back.

After work, Long Fei didn’t go to find Bai Xiaochun, but she took the initiative to send a WeChat message asking to meet him.

Ever since Long Fei had added her number, they had not yet spoken.

Long Fei drove Lin Yingying home first and then took leave from her, saying, "Xiaochun has asked to meet, probably something she needs to tell me."

Lin Yingying shrugged her shoulders and said, "Go on, I’m not stopping you!"

As she got out of the car, presenting a generous demeanor, Long Fei was surprised that he could barely accept it.

He drove the car, ready to back out.

Suddenly, Lin Yingying came back, leaned on the car window and sniffed at his body.

Long Fei frowned, "What’s up, do I smell bad?"

"Nope?"

Lin Yingying chuckled mischievously, shaking her head and teasing him, "I’ve memorized your scent, so if you come back with an extra one, you better be ready for punishment!"

Long Fei almost spat blood, he had just been about to praise her for being open-minded!

The minds of women, truly like needles at the bottom of the sea.

He shook his head and drove away.

Bai Xiaochun asked to meet at her place; when Long Fei parked the car downstairs and looked up, he wondered what tricks this Fox Demon had up her sleeve.

Her home was on the tenth floor; after Long Fei went up, he rang the doorbell.

The door opened, and Bai Xiaochun’s somewhat plump cheek appeared, smiling and waving at Long Fei in her oversized pajamas.

"Shoes off?"

Long Fei glanced inside: the apartment was small, a two-bedroom with a living room, very neat, with the floor polished to a shine.

She must like stuffed toys, as they were everywhere in there.

Bai Xiaochun crouched down to fetch him a pair of slippers, women’s, a bit small.

Long Fei put them on and followed her to sit down on the sofa.

Bai Xiaochun sat opposite him, pouted her lips and got straight to the point, "Since you’ve found out, let’s lay it all out in the open!"

Long Fei smiled, "Sure!"

A fluffy tail emerged from behind Bai Xiaochun; she held it in her hands and wagged it at Long Fei, "You’re not mistaken, I am a demon, and yes, the very Fox Demon people often talk about!"

Though Long Fei had been prepared, he was still slightly taken aback by her blunt admission.

He hadn’t expected that such fairies really existed in this city.

But actually, there was nothing to be surprised about; with the world so full of life, all things could develop consciousness.

Humans were just born with it, having a bit of an advantage, that’s all.

Things you haven’t seen don’t mean they don’t exist.

He joked with Bai Xiaochun, "So what happens next, are you going to eat me?"

Bai Xiaochun chuckled and shook her head, "You really are quite special; others would have been scared to death by now."

"Likewise, likewise."

Long Fei also chuckled.

The tense atmosphere in the room lightened, and Bai Xiaochun skillfully prepared two cups of clear tea, handing one to Long Fei.

Her fox-like eyes narrowed as she said to Long Fei, "Twenty years ago, the night you were born, I saw you."

"Is that so?"

Long Fei raised his eyebrows slightly and took a sip of his tea.

The water was sweet, and the fragrance of the tea filled the air.

The drinks of demons were indeed different.

Bai Xiaochun said, "Don’t disbelieve me, my granny was still alive back then. The night you were born, there was a supernatural phenomenon, and all the animals around Three Immortals Mountain sensed it. My granny took us to see you; in Longjiawan Village, your family was the only one with the surname Long, so I couldn’t be mistaken."

"What kind of phenomenon?"

Long Fei looked curiously into her eyes, wanting to know whether what she said was true or false.

Rumours had it that the Fox Clan was adept at beguiling hearts; Long Fei didn’t know what kind of trap she was setting for him.

As soon as he entered, he appeared relaxed on the surface, but his nerves were anything but relaxed.

Bai Xiaochun said, "The night you were born, a Divine Dragon Dharma Laksana appeared in the sky and lasted for a good ten seconds or more. That kind of pressure was like Mount Tai bearing down, and all the animals prostrated in worship. Granny said you were a person of great destiny and that your future was immeasurable. Looking at you now, it seems to be true."

Long Fei’s eyebrows tightened, and he believed her words a little.

The secret about him was known by very few people.

He had come to realize that the Jade Pendant of Dragon Blood had merely activated the Dragon Bloodline within him, and not changed his bloodline.

If he did not have the Dragon Clan bloodline, the Dragon Blood inside the jade pendant could not have merged with him.

Demon Blood was powerful and was not something ordinary people could withstand.

Somewhere in the dark, fate seemed to be manipulating all this.

Out of curiosity, he asked, "Is your granny still alive then?"

Some questions, he still found somewhat puzzling.

If Bai Xiaochun’s granny was still alive, he could perhaps go and ask her.

Bai Xiaochun said with a saddened expression, "She’s no longer with us; fifteen years ago, a group of young cultivators happened to pass by Three Immortals Mountain. They discovered us and then they killed my granny. Granny fought to her death to protect my sister and me, allowing us to escape to the city and narrowly avoid catastrophe."

Speaking of this, her eyes reddened.

"Why did they want to kill you?"

Long Fei was a bit curious.

Bai Xiaochun shook her head, saying, "I don’t know; we never did anything against the heavens or reason. Granny did a lot of good deeds back then, and everyone called her Granny Fox Immortal. Those cultivators were arrogant; despite being young, their killing intent was immense. Upon seeing us, they started attacking without a word. In the end, Granny, left with no choice, self-detonated her body to injure them. She gave the Demon Cores to my sister and me, and over the years, it’s been Granny’s Demon Cores that have allowed us to cultivate and achieve the Transformative Form Realm."

"So that’s how it was!"

Long Fei nodded, all the puzzles in his mind unraveling.

It is not easy for demons to cultivate, especially in The Dharma-Ending Age without any resources for cultivation.

Without the Demon Cores, how could they break through to the Transformative Form Realm at such a young age?

Bai Xiaochun asked him, "Alright, I’ve said what I had to say. Over the years, you’re the only person I’ve shared this secret with. Don’t you Human Cultivators all like to slay demons and eliminate evil? If you want to kill, then kill; I can’t beat you right now, so you can do as you please!"

She lifted her fair neck, pouting slightly, a look of resignation on her face.

Long Fei, looking at her adorable appearance, couldn’t help but laugh.

Bai Xiaochun’s hands loosened, and she frowned, saying, "What are you laughing at?"

Long Fei calmed his breath and earnestly said to her, "I’ve told you before, there are good and bad demon. Not all demons deserve to be slain; one ought to distinguish right from wrong, right?"

Bai Xiaochun’s eyes became teary, and she couldn’t help but cry.

This time, she had bet on the correct man; he was indeed different from other members of the Human Race.

After so many years, she had finally met someone who understood their plight, how could she not be moved?

Wiping her nose, she asked Long Fei through sobs, "Then, we can still be friends, right?"

"Of course!"

Long Fei chuckled lightly as he took out a tissue to wipe her nose for her.

As his hand touched Bai Xiaochun’s face, she instinctively dodged, her cheeks flushing red.

Her shy appearance was even more delicate than that of a Human Race girl by a fair bit.
