“This is only natural, however…”
“However, what?”
Seeing the Black-Clad Man suddenly pause, Su Qiulian’s expression did not change, but her demonic power was already secretly gathering in her palm.
“Heh.”
The Black-Clad Man let out a cold snort, then with one hand he yanked up Old Wangtou, while the other formed a claw and lunged straight for Old Wangtou’s head, as if to kill him right then and there.
In a flash, Su Qiulian made her move, sending a phantom fox claw striking directly at the Black-Clad Man’s chest.
“Boom!”
The ground at the spot erupted, dirt and rocks flying everywhere, but the Black-Clad Man had already dragged Old Wangtou away in advance, leaping backward into the air.
“Hehehe, Demon Emperor, what is the meaning of this? I was merely trying to show you something, or does the Demon Emperor still look down on our Demonic Sect?”
He spoke with a laugh, but the smile quickly faded, for in his vision, Su Qiulian’s figure vanished into thin air.
Not good!
But there was no time for him to react.
“Pu chi!”
A slender, jade-like hand pierced through his chest from behind, not stained by a drop of blood, pure and flawless, smooth as jade.
“Pu… cough cough… damn it…”
Gazing at the hand that had come through his chest, the Black-Clad Man could only utter a bitter curse before all life left him.
“Heh, I’ve never joined hands with trash to pursue great ambitions! And another thing, what do you mean by ‘giving Little Shen to me’? Little Shen was mine from the start!”
After landing, Su Qiulian glanced disdainfully at the corpse on the ground with a gaping wound in its chest.
Then she looked at Old Wangtou, who was trembling and cowering on the ground.
She was just about to wipe his memory, but Old Wangtou suddenly mustered up the courage from somewhere, jumped up and shouted, “You—you can’t eat Shen Immortal Doctor!”
Su Qiulian was taken aback.
“Oh? Why not?”
“B-because Shen Immortal Doctor grew up under all our eyes! If you want to harm Shen Immortal Doctor, then kill this old man first!”
Old Wangtou roared, but his face was twisted and ugly from fear, his wrinkles all scrunched together.
Su Qiulian was silent for a moment.
A glint flashed in her eyes, and Old Wangtou’s expression instantly became dazed as he shakily turned and went back inside his house.
“Thank you. In a way, you could say you and the others are Little Shen’s parents too…”
“But I’ll still eat Little Shen—she’s mine!”
Su Qiulian said this, then turned her gaze to the corpse on the ground.
She was just about to investigate when something strange happened.
“Hm?”
Under Su Qiulian’s gaze, the corpse slowly transformed into a wisp of black smoke.
Even the blood pooling on the ground turned to black smoke as well.
When the smoke dissipated, what remained beneath was a Straw Doll, only the size of a palm.
Sweeping away the smoke, Su Qiulian picked up the Straw Doll with a large hole in its chest and examined both sides carefully.
“A Puppet… well, that was within expectations…”
Thinking this, Su Qiulian put the Puppet Straw Doll away, glanced around at the mess inside and outside the house, and extended her hand, a fox spirit mark forming once again at her fingertip.
A little Fox Spirit leaped from her fingertip.
Wherever it ran, the damaged ground and furniture would restore themselves under the effect of demonic power.
Then the little Fox Spirit hopped onto the shoulder of Old Wangtou, who was snoring away on the bed, and vanished.
Su Qiulian nodded, glanced over at Li Da’s neighboring courtyard, and, confirming nothing was amiss, took flight and hurried back.
“It’s getting late, Little Shen must have warmed the bed by now, hehe, time to go back to sleep!”
Humming softly, Su Qiulian flew back to Shen Qingyi’s little house.
As soon as she entered, she saw Shen Qingyi sprawled out carelessly on the bed, limbs splayed everywhere—a truly uninhibited sight.
Luckily, she was the only one who saw it.
Su Qiulian tiptoed over to the bed and softly called, “Little Shen~ are you asleep? I’m coming to bed now~”
To her surprise, Shen Qingyi actually answered her, mumbling and groaning.
“Ugh… you perverted bad woman… not allowed on the bed!… Hmph…”
Of course, it was just sleep talk.
After mumbling, Shen Qingyi turned over, leaving her back to Su Qiulian, and most of the blanket had slipped off.
Seeing this, Su Qiulian lay down beside Shen Qingyi and pulled the blanket over her once more.
Then.
Then Shen Qingyi kicked her right off the bed…
Rubbing her butt as she got up, Su Qiulian glanced at Shen Qingyi, who was still sound asleep and oblivious, and pressed her hand to her forehead.
Standing with hands on her hips for a moment, she suddenly had a brilliant idea!
Shaking her body, Su Qiulian reverted to her Original Form, turning into a little snow-white fox, and with two bounces leaped back onto the bed.
Her nine tails merged into one large fluffy tail, which she used to tease Shen Qingyi in her sleep.
Sure enough, Shen Qingyi grabbed hold of it at once.
“So soft… like cotton candy, hehe…”
Shen Qingyi giggled foolishly and took a lick, ending up with a mouthful of fur.
“Ptui, ptui, not tasty at all…”
Then she stretched out her arms and hugged Su Qiulian’s big tail to her chest.
“Hehe~ so warm…”
Following the base of the tail, she pulled the entire Su Qiulian into her embrace.
“So fluffy… feels so nice…”
Su Qiulian was also thoroughly enjoying being held by Shen Qingyi, though in this form she couldn’t do anything mischievous.
But that was fine.
Curling her four paws, she nestled into Shen Qingyi’s arms and went to sleep.
Thus, one girl and one fox slept soundly until dawn.
Shen Qingyi felt she’d had a great night’s sleep, especially from the moment she couldn’t figure out why her arms felt so warm in the night, she was peaceful in her dreams, sleeping soundly all night.
Of course, she had no idea this was due to Su Qiulian’s Body Fragrance.
Fox Demons are born with Innate Charm, naturally able to emit a Body Fragrance that makes people feel relaxed and content.
In her previous life, Su Qiulian had coaxed Shen Qingyi to sleep the same way, reverting to her Original Form, snuggling into Shen Qingyi’s arms with her fluffy fur, then releasing her Fox Demon’s Body Fragrance.
Every time Little Shen woke up, she’d be full of energy, which only made bullying her all the more entertaining.
“Mm… huh? What’s this?”
Upon waking, Shen Qingyi squeezed the fluffy thing in her arms, feeling a bit puzzled.
This texture, it was just like the dolls from her previous life!
But, there didn’t seem to be dolls in this world, right?
So what was it she was hugging?
Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze.
Su Qiulian, after all that squeezing, was woken up.
Stretching with a yawn, she splayed her limbs out.
“Hululu~”
This gave Shen Qingyi quite a fright.
“Oh my god, it moves! And it makes sounds too!!”
“How scary!”
With a snap, Shen Qingyi flung Su Qiulian away in panic.
Ow!
Su Qiulian landed steadily on the ground, feeling a bit speechless, then changed back into her human form.
However, the little white fox did not disappear.
Instead, it seemed to have separated from her, and she held it in her arms.
This was her Main Soul Fox Spirit.
“What’s wrong, Little Shen? It’s just a cute little fox!”
Su Qiulian said as she handed her Main Soul Fox Spirit back to Shen Qingyi.
“A-a fox…?”
Shen Qingyi raised the little fox to eye level and scrutinized it with her spiritual sense.
She thought, doesn’t this fox kind of look like a dog?
