Chapter 219: Chapter 141 I’m Hungry

Hurry up and deal with him. Once this ancestor in front of us turns around and leaves, she can happily move forward with the old horse.

"Oh?" Unexpectedly, this demon man is in high spirits, revealing a mouthful of silver teeth, "Not sure how to repay? Then let me think for you."

Eh, did she flatter the horse on its leg? She’s just an ordinary mortal woman, and he’s a great monster; does such a trivial favor even need her repayment? That’s too stingy. Besides, wasn’t this person in a rage just ten breaths ago? How could his face change so quickly?

What she doesn’t know is that although the temperament of this red-clothed demon in front of her is capricious and variable, he’s primarily pragmatic. Since the small seedlings in his hands are already beyond saving, it’s better to look for other clues. He usually has no patience for dealing with humans, but for some reason, he finds this woman somewhat peculiar. He can tell at a glance that Ning Xiaoxian is a pure ordinary human; she doesn’t have a trace of Spiritual Power, yet something about her seems a bit off!

He’s a demon; if he encounters something strange, there’s no need to verify anything; he can just wave his hand and eliminate it. However, today, he doesn’t plan to do so.

"Um." He strokes his chin in thought, "How about this, accompany me for a journey."

Nani? Startled, she looks up with undisguisable surprise in her eyes: "Lord, I..." She saw the interest brimming in his red pupils and quickly changed her words, "I’m afraid I can’t keep up with your speed!" His recent entry into the camp was too flamboyant, indeed too fast; she couldn’t keep up.

This flamboyant man pointed and said: "Isn’t that a horse there? You can ride it."

Fine then. She had nothing else to say, "Lord" wanted her to accompany him on a trip, could she dare say no? This person is even more beautiful than her; does she need to worry about her chastity?

"Alright." She walked over reluctantly, untied all the horse’s reins, "Run fast, you are free now!" Then she picked two of the most robust looking horses, including the old horse, and pulled them over. Surely she wouldn’t be riding a horse while "Lord" walked on the ground? She thought quite obsequiously.

"What does this mean?" The man in red pointed at the old horse.

"This horse has carried me all the way here. It’s so old, it can’t run fast anymore. It would not survive if left in the wild." She wanted to take the old horse to the human settlement area.

He glanced at her, didn’t say a word, and climbed onto a fine horse.

"Ah, Lord, wait!" She quickly picked up the most valuable gold and silver scattered on the ground with great effort, tied the large sacks onto the horseback, and also carried the two little bat demons onto a tall, broad horse, before tying the old horse’s reins to the saddle of her own horse and then mounted it. By the time she was done, she was panting heavily and sweating from her forehead.

"Money-grubber." The red-clothed man muttered, driving his horse forward.

She is a mortal, of course, she has to act a bit like one. Ning Xiaoxian subconsciously knew that the demon had developed a curiosity about her, which was not a good sign! The more greedy she appeared, the more he would underestimate her, right?

Now that she was on a good horse, she truly felt the exhilarating sensation of "coming and going like the wind," and the ride was much smoother too. The old horse at the back galloped fast enough to keep up.

Initially, she worried that following the red-clothed man would lead them back the way they came; surprisingly, he chose a direction heading west. At this pace, they would leave Feng Province in just two days.

She raced the horse while Changtian relayed Wen Liangyu’s thoughts; clearly, the two had discussed beforehand.

What she most wanted to know was what Changtian had just mentioned about "Tushan Descendants," and now he was explaining: "The so-called Tushan Descendants refer to the Fox Demon Clan. In ancient times, from the Xia Clan, Yu the Great married a woman from the Tushan tribe; this woman was the nine-tailed white fox. Since then, the Fox Demon Clan has called themselves Tushan Descendants to signify their noble bloodline. This red-clothed little fox demon’s aura is dense, clearly with a pure bloodline and significant demonic power. I haven’t seen his true form, so I don’t know which branch he belongs to, but the Sky Fox is most likely."

She suddenly understood. No wonder this red-clothed man was born so enchantingly bewitching; he is an actual male fox spirit.

"According to Wen," Wen continued, "the small seedling he found on the corpse appeared to be a tea seedling. From this, it’s mostly likely the Spiritual Tea Seedlings that Wen had planted in Rock City. This has led to a fox demon from the Divine Refining Stage coming to pursue it personally."
