"Squeak, squeak!" it screeched, waving its furry paws.

"What did it say?"

"Touch it again?" Daoist Xiwu stroked his smooth chin and said with a smile.

Xiao Xuan gave the young man a disdainful look.

"Why do I feel like he's saying he'll bite you to death?" Shen Wangshu said hesitantly.

She always felt that touching a fox's tail was inappropriate.

"How could that be? How could my little black dog be so heartless to me?" Daoist Xiwu laughed and waved his hand, saying, "You don't know how well-behaved it is."

Clearly, Shen Wangshu and Xi Wu Daojun have completely different definitions of what constitutes "well-behaved."

She gazed intently at Xi Wu Daojun, who was thoroughly enjoying teasing the black fox, then at the exhausted black fox dangling from his hand, now a dead fox, and couldn't help but smile. She caught a faint, pleasant scent of her own elixir on the fox; clearly, Xi Wu Daojun had given the fox a precious elixir. After a moment's hesitation, she slowly said, "Forced love is never sweet. If it doesn't want to, then set it free."

Where can you find someone who forces themselves on you?

Forcing yourself on a fox would be even more outrageous!

When signing a contract, shouldn't it be based on mutual affection, like she and Xiao Xuan?

You can't take advantage of being a great cultivator to do evil and forcibly abduct a good fox.

Xi Wu Daojun glanced at Shen Wangshu with a smile.

His junior sister may seem heartless, but she is actually the most soft-hearted and never forces anyone. Now she probably realizes that the black fox did not stay by his side voluntarily.

“This one doesn’t want me.” He smiled and placed the black fox on the stone table. Seeing it limp and listless, curled up in a ball, completely devoid of its previous fierceness, he reached out to try to pat its head, but it swatted his hand away with a paw. He wasn’t angry, and said with a smile, “It’s just that it took the initiative to sign a spirit beast contract with me, and it’s a blood contract. I can’t let it go.”

Seeing that Shen Wangshu looked somewhat surprised, seemingly puzzled by the blood pact he had signed that could not be broken, the young man lowered his eyes and placed a jade-green elixir next to the black fox's small head with his slender fingers.

The black fox immediately perked up, snatched the elixir and hid it under its belly, continuing to squeak at Daoist Xiwu.

The young man didn't take it seriously and gave it another elixir with a smile.

"Your Ice Peak seems to attract foxes. I saw it outside your dojo the other day. It was barely alive, covered in blood, and it barked at me as soon as it saw me. I just wanted to give it two elixirs to save its life, but who knew that by some twist of fate, a blood pact would be formed."

To be honest, Daoist Xiwu initially didn't like this pitch-black fox. Even a Daoist has his own aesthetic sense; he prefers fire foxes, okay? Bright and beautiful, it suits the status of a Nascent Soul cultivator. Who likes something so dark and murky? But once the blood pact was formed, he had no choice but to accept it.

Daoist Xiwu considered himself a responsible person, and now that he had this black fox, he no longer coveted the fire fox.

Moreover, after spending time with this fox, Daoist Xiwu also felt that this glossy, smooth black fox was actually quite beautiful.

He especially liked its wild and fierce nature.

Thinking of this, the young man's face showed even more affection. He rested one hand on his delicate chin and smiled as he watched the black fox, who was engrossed in biting the spirit pill, looking utterly heartless.

That ungrateful little fox, Xiao Xuan, still knows to wag his tail at his junior sister while eating elixirs.

This fox is really...

They have no conscience.

He reached out and stroked the black fox's fur.

Without hesitation, the black fox slashed at him with its claws.

Shen Wangshu couldn't understand this self-destructive spirit. It was probably because Xiwu Daojun had been exceptionally talented since childhood and had never experienced any setbacks, which was why he was so indulgent towards this fierce black fox who always went against him.

If it were Shen Wangshu herself, she would have already skinned this fox and made it into a scarf. Her gaze was focused, and the black fox, which was burying its head in the elixir, twitched its ears, looked up sharply, and stared at Shen Wangshu with a fierce look. When it saw Shen Wangshu, it bared its teeth and made suppressed growls. Just as it was about to step forward and swat at Shen Wangshu, a snow-white fox emerged from Shen Wangshu's arms.

The fox blocked Shen Wangshu's path, its fur bristling and revealing a threatening expression.

Clearly, Black Fox wanted to hurt Shen Wangshu, which made Xiao Xuan very angry.

It suddenly revealed one of its little claws, its sharp edge gleaming.

Black Fox stared at Xiao Xuan, then suddenly froze in shock.

It kept wrestling with Daoist Xiwu, and then focused on gnawing on elixirs to replenish its spiritual energy, completely unaware that a snow-white fox was nestled in the arms of Shen Wangshu, who was dressed in white.

Upon seeing the white fox, the black fox's eyes narrowed sharply, then it jumped back and adopted a murderous expression.

It seemed to see something incredible. As Xiao Xuan growled at it, a murderous glint appeared in its eyes, as if the white ball in front of it was an enemy it could never let go.

It didn't care where it was. With a powerful push from its two hind legs, it pounced on Xiao Xuan with a howl! It bared its snow-white fangs, as if to bite open Xiao Xuan's throat, and its sharp claws, as if to tear Xiao Xuan's fur. It was aggressive and seemed determined to fight to the death. Not only it, but Xiao Xuan was also filled with murderous intent and went to meet it.

Two foxes of similar size immediately started fighting.

Perhaps because Xiao Xuan had been pampered by Shen Wangshu, it was a bit bigger than the black fox. It angrily tore at the black fox's body, and in just a few bites, it tore off one of the black fox's front paws, causing a few drops of blood to splatter in front of Shen Wangshu.
