Silver Ring blinked, eyeing the fox in front of her.

This fox, though smelly, was incredibly beautiful in human form. Its eyes were captivating and alluring, its skin as white as snow, so delicate it seemed to break at a touch—truly a peerless beauty. No wonder humans describe beautiful women as fox spirits; there's a reason for it... I wonder if gray foxes are this beautiful?

"Why did you cut off my path as a demon?" Yin Huan was a little distracted. She shook her head and thought to herself: This fox's charm is really powerful. Even she was bewitched.

Yin Huan calmed herself down and realized that the fox was quite aggressive.

Considering they were both demons, she had given her such a clear warning, so why couldn't she understand?

Ah Fei once said, "Fairies cannot harm people."

After harming people, they will not only become the target of demon hunters, but also bear the burden of human lives on their demonic path. When they undergo tribulation, the Thunder God in the sky will unleash even more powerful thunder.

This fox must have been misled by no one, which is why it went astray and used this evil cultivation method to improve its cultivation level.

Silver Ring had only recently become a demon, and her understanding of demons was not comprehensive. All the demons she encountered came from the prison.

Although the demons in the prison are notorious for their bloodshed, to be honest, none of them actually improve their cultivation by absorbing human essence. Demons who truly aspire to achieve something great would never choose this shortcut, because it would be self-destructive.

Absorbing human essence may seem to rapidly increase cultivation, but the side effects are extremely severe. Not only is it dangerous during tribulations, but excessive absorption can lead to dependence and even demonic possession.

Once one falls into demonic possession, the path to becoming a demon is completely blocked, and the opportunity to achieve enlightenment is forever lost.

In the afternoon, cicadas chirped incessantly in the treetops, while beneath the shade, two figures, one tall and one short, stood silently. The fox spirit gazed greedily at the little girl ahead, its narrow eyes gleaming.

She stuck out her tongue and licked her rosy lips, then suddenly reached out with her claws to grab the silver ring.

Prey delivered to your doorstep—why not take it? This is a rare find.

These days, the disappearance of one person might cause a huge uproar, but the disappearance of a demon...

The fox spirit had no scruples. In the demon race, killing each other and devouring lesser demons with lower cultivation levels was commonplace. Survival of the fittest was an unchanging law of the demon race for millennia.

Silver Ring's demonic power was weak, and the human form she transformed into was delicate and frail, lacking even the physique of an adult demon. In the fox's eyes, she posed no threat whatsoever; she was simply an easy prey to catch.

The fox spirit felt she would be letting down the great favor bestowed upon her by heaven if she didn't devour her.

Silver Ring tilted her little head, her long skirt concealing the truth beneath her feet. Her large eyes narrowed slightly, and she loosened her grip on the fox's tail. In a moment of panic, she swerved to the left, clumsily dodging the fox spirit's outstretched claws.

No sooner said than done, in the instant she turned to the side, the little tail under her skirt instinctively lashed forward, slapping the fox spirit's legs with a whoosh.

Yin Huan was somewhat taken aback: "..." How could they just start attacking like that?

Perhaps she had been living too carefree these past few days, and Silver Ring had forgotten the pain of her past wounds and the fact that the spider demon had tried to eat her.

"Awooo—" A shrill scream suddenly burst from the fox spirit's mouth, and her long, alluring legs beneath her slender waist instantly became deformed.

Her slender, fair legs suddenly snapped, unable to maintain their human form, gradually revealing red fox fur.

The fox spirit was just a minor demon. Although her demonic energy seemed to be more abundant than that of the silver ring, her cultivation level was not much higher.

Foxes are a uniquely gifted race, being the most likely among all demon races to cultivate into human form. Before undergoing their tribulation of lightning, they can use their fox-like charm to transform into humans and descend from the mountains to bewitch the world.

For a fox spirit to overcome the tribulation of taking human form, the key lies in its third tail. Only after cultivating a third tail can they have any hope of overcoming the tribulation.

The fox spirit before them was the one who had never survived the tribulation of lightning. The human skin she was currently wearing was merely a transformation created by the fox clan's unique charm technique. She had cultivated her second tail for over five hundred years, and was only one step away from transcending the tribulation of human form.

Therefore, a demon with weak demonic energy but who had transformed into human form was practically tailor-made for her. As long as she devoured the silver ring, she would be able to take a giant leap forward.

Today, the fox spirit wouldn't dare to attack any other demon. But Silver Ring's harmless appearance led the fox spirit to misjudge the situation. Sure enough, the moment they clashed, Silver Ring's tail, which even Huo Fei found difficult to handle, whipped her into her beast form.

Looking at the fairy whose fox legs she had just whipped off with her tail, Silver Ring was actually a little surprised.

Silver Ring was stunned: "......" Oh my god, how come my tail is so powerful?

Realizing what had happened, Silver Ring's eyes lit up with surprise: it turned out she wasn't a complete weakling after all.

Wait, now is not the time to be happy about this.

Coming to her senses, Yin Huan narrowed her eyes, a hint of fierce anger flashing within them: "You want to eat me."

...On a whim, Yin Huan finally realized the fox spirit's intentions.

"You wretched brat, you're asking for it."

The fox spirit, preoccupied with her own pain, failed to see clearly what Silver Ring had used to whip her, thus missing a golden opportunity to discover Silver Ring's identity. Recovering from the excruciating pain, she glared fiercely at Silver Ring with her furry, pointed snout. Then, she raised her snout and let out a long, mournful howl, as if summoning something.

"You're asking for it! I think you're the one asking for it. Hmph, you want to eat me? I'll beat you to death!" Silver Ring was also furious.
