Chapter 203: The Fox Spirit (16)

What terrifying thing happened while it was away? How could its host be so bold as to contact Yao Ye? And even start enjoying it? Isn't it afraid of being killed by Yao Ye?

【Host. 】

Wen Wan opened her eyes. "You're back? You heartless bastard, why were you gone for so long? Do you know I almost died several times during this time?"

System: [Sorry, host, I've been summoned back. I have no choice. But please tell me exactly what happened.]

Wen Wan quickly told Yao Ye about how he had captured her and poisoned her, "If I don't take the antidote every day, I will be in pain every night until I die from the pain."

Upon hearing this, the system was alarmed and quickly performed a body scan on its host, and then, [...]

[Host, are you sure you've been poisoned? But according to my examination, there are no signs of poisoning in your body.]

"Then it must be because you didn't detect it."

"Impossible, you're not infected." The system said firmly. If the host were infected, it would have received a warning, but nothing happened.

Wen Yan: "..."

She wasn't poisoned? So Yao Ye lied to her? Yao Ye didn't poison her?

"I just ate the demon core that Yao Ye gave me. Is that safe to eat? Will I die?"

system:【……】

The villain not only doesn't kill you, but also gives you a demon core? That's just too outrageous! But the system still detected it and found that its host did indeed have an extra power.

[It's a demon core! What did you do to make Yao Ye treat you so well, and even stop wanting to kill you?]

Wen Wan thought about what she had done during this period and shook her head. "I don't know! This Yao Ye threatened me from the beginning, saying that he gave me poison and that I should come to him every day to get the antidote. He also said that if I became his subordinate and left with him in the future, he would give me the demon core of a thousand-year-old fox demon."

system:【……】

[I guess it's because of your charm skill that the villain doesn't want to kill you anymore, which is good, at least you're safer. So, has the relationship between the male and female leads developed during this time?]

Wen Wan remained silent.

The system said suspiciously, "[You haven't done anything, have you? If you keep slacking off like this, you might soon be attending the wedding of the second male lead who gets to marry the female lead, and you might even see the second male lead and the female lead have a baby.]"

Wen Yan: "..."

"Then what should I do?"

System: [Try to facilitate a meeting between the male and female leads. Isn't the female lead in Qianxue Palace? Create some opportunities, like the hunger strike we talked about last time. If you fast for a period of time, you can only eat when you're near the female lead. To prevent you from starving, the male lead will definitely try to contact her.]

Wen Yan: "???"

So in the end, she's the only one who suffers? What kind of insane idea is this? However, in the end, Wen Wan was forced to agree by the system, and after returning, she began a hunger strike, refusing to even eat spirit stones.

At first, Gu Xuefeng didn't notice. After all, in his eyes, this fox would never wrong itself, and it was probably fed a lot by those disciples outside.

However, after several days, Gu Xuefeng noticed something strange as he looked at the increasingly weak fox.

He took a spirit stone and offered it to the fox's mouth, but the fox turned its head away.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Wen Wan: "I'm going on a hunger strike."

Gu Xuefeng: "..."

A hunger strike? Why did they suddenly start a hunger strike?

Why aren't you eating?

"To create conditions for you and your wife." Then she ran off in a flash. Gu Xuefeng chased after Wen Wan, who ran straight to the courtyard where Lin Qingshui lived and jumped into Lin Qingshui's arms.

"Xiaobai? What brings you here?"

Then, upon seeing Sect Master Gu following behind, Lin Qingshui instantly became nervous and immediately bowed, saying, "Greetings, Sect Master."

Gu Xuefeng: "Mm."

"Sect Master, what brings you here?"

Gu Xuefeng glanced at the fox in Lin Qingshui's arms. Lin Qingshui knew what was going on and quickly released Xiaobai. "Sect Master, Xiaobai is just a little playful. It's usually very well-behaved."

Wen Wan: What a wonderful female lead!

Gu Xuefeng: "Hmm, she hasn't been eating much lately, probably because she misses you. Could you take care of her for a few days?"

Lin Qingshui nodded hurriedly, "Yes, Sect Master."

Gu Xuefeng left, and Wen Wan thought to herself, "We've only exchanged two sentences, and nothing's really going on. Why did he leave already?" The female lead didn't even dare to look at the male lead. Wen Wan thought to herself, "Wasn't all my hunger for nothing?" So she suddenly ran out and grabbed Gu Xuefeng's clothes.

"What's wrong? Didn't you want to go with your original owner? Why did you come here?" Gu Xuefeng was angry. Wen Wan felt that this person wouldn't vent his anger on her, but he would release a cold aura that made people feel subconsciously terrifying.

Don't you like her?

Gu Xuefeng: "..."

What exactly gave the fox the illusion that she would like a disciple? At first, she wondered if the disciple had impure intentions, which was why she made the fox do these things. However, after seeing the disciple, Gu Xuefeng felt that the disciple didn't seem to have any feelings for her at all.

So, is this fox's imagination entirely based on conjecture?

Why did you want me to come here?

"You need to spend more time with your future wife before I can finish my mission and go home. Forget it, you wouldn't understand anyway."

Gu Xuefeng, who could understand fox language, raised an eyebrow.

Then he looked at Lin Qingshui and said, "Now that you have entered my Qianxue Palace, you must cultivate diligently in the future." He then gave Lin Qingshui a cultivation manual and a spirit sword.

This completely shocked Lin Qingshui.

She had thought that the sect leader had almost forgotten about her. She didn't even understand why the sect leader would bring her to the Thousand Snow Palace if he wasn't going to treat her specially or accept her as a disciple.

She never expected the sect leader to give her such a generous gift.

"Thank you, Sect Master. This disciple will definitely cultivate diligently and will not let you down."

"Okay, take good care of Xiaobai. She's had a poor appetite lately, so give her more spirit stones." He then gave her another batch of spirit stones before leaving.

Lin Qingshui looked at Xiaobai, then at what she had received, her surprise and confusion mixed together.

Picking up Little White and feeding it spirit stones, Wen Wan had completed her task and naturally didn't want to go on a hunger strike anymore. So she ate happily, not at all like a fox with a poor appetite.

"Xiao Bai, didn't the clan say you have a poor appetite?"

Wen Yan: "..."

"Why is the sect leader suddenly being so nice to me? This is a top-grade spirit sword." Lin Qingshui held the sword, admiring it.

Wen Wan looked at the sword and realized it was indeed a fine sword. As for why it was fine, in Wen Wan's aesthetic sense, it was beautiful.

"He also gave me a high-grade cultivation technique suitable for my spiritual root, so the sect leader values ​​me and really wants to take me as his disciple?"

Wen Wan nodded. This isn't just about being his apprentice; you're his destined wife.

"I didn't expect the sect leader to be so cold on the outside but warm on the inside. I have to talk to my senior brother about it. He will definitely be happy for me."

With that, he picked up Wen Wan and went to find Shen Qianyuan.

After the female lead finished speaking, the second male lead took her hand and was also very happy. "Really? Junior sister, the sect leader really gave you a spirit sword and cultivation technique? That's wonderful."

Wen Yan: "..."

He comforted himself: "After all, we grew up together as childhood sweethearts. It's not wrong to be close. As the saying goes, friendship is open and aboveboard, while love is secretive and clandestine."
