"This meat is so delicious, it's different from what we eat in the Dabie Mountains." Mingyao smiled, her eyes crinkling, looking utterly innocent.

Su Ying ate with great manners, taking one bite at a time, very elegantly. Hearing Ming Yao's words, she couldn't help but laugh, "The wolf clan will probably be in an uproar tomorrow morning."

"What's the big deal? It's just a little food for them," Mingyao pouted. "You wouldn't be that stingy, would you?"

“Yes, it’s not ‘stingy,’ it’s ‘generous.’ Eat up, after you’re done here we can grill some. Fan Ye and Zui Mei haven’t eaten much.” Su Ying has been with us for so long that she’s learned how to grill meat. And she knows how to control the heat, making it even easier for her.

"Mmm," Mingyao mumbled in response.

Fan Ye smiled broadly, never expecting such a great gain from a trip to the wolf clan.

So why is there an idiom called 'wolf's ambition'? The wolf demon's audacity can truly reach the heavens.

They even dare to kill dragons and eat them.

However, it seems that this dragon has mistakenly entered the demon realm.

Deities generally do not set foot in the demon realm. Given the relationship between the two, whoever enters the other's realm will face only one word: death.

However, both sides are quite strong, so they have maintained a state of mutual respect and non-interference.

"Here it comes, here it comes. I'll grill it. You and Zuimei go eat."

Before Fan Ye could finish thinking, Su Ying snatched the skewers from his hand and started grilling them.

"Tomorrow everyone should eat something cooling, and in the next few days, we can start eating vegetarian food," Fan Ye said, picking up a piece of grilled meat. Eating like this all the time isn't good; it's easy to get a sore throat or other internal heat.

Su Ying smiled and said, "Whatever you say, we'll do. I've really broadened my horizons by following you these past few days."

Fan Ye smiled slightly but didn't say anything. She was thinking about preparing one or two pots. After all, there's more to making delicious food than just barbecue.

Zui Mei sat next to me, eating barbecue as well. We'd had so many similar barbecues before, it was getting a bit greasy. But tonight's was an exception.

Time passed slowly, and the bright moon waned in the west, disappearing into the clouds.

After finishing their roasted meat, the four demons, Fan Ye Zui Mei Su Ying Ming Yao, lay down facing each other. From a high vantage point, they appeared to be lying in a cross shape.

"Brother, do you feel anything strange inside your body?" Zui Mei felt a warmth in his abdomen, and his demonic power seemed to be stirring.

"I feel really sleepy, does anyone want to take a nap?" Fan Ye asked.

"Now that you mention it, I really do want to..." Su Ying said lazily.

Mingyao's eyes were almost closed; she was very sleepy.

The most beautiful feeling is also...

"Close your eyes."

Upon hearing this, the beautiful Su Yingmingyao obediently closed her eyes.

Fan Ye raised his hand, noticing the faint fox fur on it, and his gaze narrowed slightly. He sat up, his entire body radiating a sky-blue light, his hands forming hand seals and constantly changing gestures, while a point of blue light between his forehead grew from a tiny speck to an increasingly prominent one.

Finally, Fan Ye raised his hand, and a barrier covered with Sanskrit characters opened up. Unlike the bright yellow barriers, this barrier was a deep blue.

After the barrier enveloped the four of them, Fan Ye collapsed and closed his eyes.

Within the barrier, a burst of light erupted in an instant, and four foxes appeared and disappeared, a scene somewhat similar to the phoenix rising from the ashes.

...

The next morning, Zui Mei was the first to wake up. He moved and felt a sensation he had never experienced before.

Zui Mei suddenly opened her eyes wide and sat up.

He slightly mobilized his demonic power and found that it had become extremely pure, and seemed different from before.

Zui Mei's demonic power is based on ice magic, but he uses his ice magic to enhance his Locking Cold Twin Blades, so it's not usually noticeable.

But now...

Zui Mei attempted to mobilize her demonic power, pushing her palm forward. A large section of ice immediately surged out, and the demonic and divine power on the ice complemented each other, making the ice far more powerful than half the original ice.

"Hiss, it's so cold." In stark contrast to the awakening of the enchanting beauty, Su Ying was the first to be awakened by the cold. A faint flame-colored light automatically emanated from her body, warming her up.

Zui Mei realized what was happening and quickly dispersed her demonic power, causing all the ice to melt into water.

When he woke up, he felt like he had so many more methods for using ice in his head. And strangely, his demonic power was so much stronger. There was also divine power here, which seemed to be completely integrated with his demonic power, yet it was still clearly visible.

"My God, what's going on?!" Su Ying woke up and clearly felt the changes in her body, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Fan Ye and Ming Yao raised their eyebrows upon hearing her voice and slowly opened their eyes.

Mingyao possesses the ability to stimulate plant growth. In the past, she could only stimulate small grasses, so she didn't dare let many people know about her ability. But now, she feels that she can not only stimulate flowers, grasses, and trees, but she even has a feeling that she can stimulate the growth of the phoenix parasol tree in the sacred land...

Is she dreaming?!

When Fan Ye sat up, she felt as if her entire body had been broken and then glued back together; every part of her body ached, and her face turned extremely pale.

The three of them turned to look at him simultaneously. They were initially pleasantly surprised, but the moment they saw him, they were all terrified. They scrambled to their feet and surrounded him. Zui Mei supported him and asked worriedly, "Brother, how are you?"

Fan Ye shook his head. "I'm fine. Before I awakened last night, I used the power of awakening to set up a barrier so that no one would find out. I suffered a backlash, which is a normal reaction."

"You did all this for us," Su Ying said, almost in tears. "How can we help you?"

Mingyao burst into tears.

Zui Mei felt extremely guilty. Why wasn't he the one who set up the barrier?

Every fox in the fox clan has its own unique talent. Some talents can be repeated, but some talents are extremely rare.

Throughout the entire fox clan, only Fan Ye and Fu Yao possess the ability to set up barriers.

However, Fuyao's abilities are not even half of Fanye's. Otherwise, given Fuyao's age, how could he only be an elder instead of a clan leader?

"I've just been a little more enlightened than you guys. Looking at you, anyone who didn't know better would think I'm about to die!" Fan Ye rolled his eyes and coughed halfway through. "I'll give you a chance to repay me. There should be some Ganoderma lucidum on this mountain. Pick one and bring it back. It has to be an old one."

Mingyao wiped away her tears. "Leave this to me. I'm most sensitive to plants."

Fan Ye glanced at her and nodded.

Su Ying stood up and said, "Ming Yao, I'll go with you."

Zui Mei also wanted to go, but he changed his mind because he had to take good care of his brother.

Mingyao nodded.

The two transformed back into their original forms and sped off into the mountains, disappearing in an instant.

Zui Mei glanced at them, then looked at Fan Ye, "Brother, why did we realize this?"
