Little Fox



Little Fox

The loud noise woke up Liu Muzhe and Qiu Zimu. They went to Ye Jing'an's room and saw that he was attacking more and more violently, but none of his swords hit him.

After the little fox spotted Liu Muze, it quickly jumped towards the window and tried to escape. When it was about to jump out of the window, it was bounced back and fell to the ground.

"Ye Jing'an, come here." Liu Muzhe said.

"What's going on? What on earth did you do?" Ye Jing'an said in an unhappy tone.

"It's nothing, I just set up a small soul-binding formation in your room." Liu Muzhe said lightly.

"Why are you doing it in my room?" Ye Jingan asked.

"Don't you like to toss and turn because you don't need to sleep? I'll let you have some fun." Liu Muzhe sneered.

Ye Jingan: "..."

The little fox ran around trying to escape, but couldn't get away. It stared at Liu Muze, baring its teeth and growling: "You are despicable!"

"How is it? Is the demon pill delicious?" Liu Muzhe sneered.

The little fox's fur stood on end as it rushed towards Liu Muze. When it was only half a meter away from him, it was bounced back by an invisible barrier and glared at him fiercely.

"You have quite a bad temper. You'd better save your energy. The corpse baby I raised is hungry." A cold light flashed in Liu Muzhe's eyes.

The little fox started to get scared when he heard the corpse baby. He drooped his ears and said pitifully, "Don't feed me to it. I'll give you my demon pill."

Liu Muze sneered and said, "If I want your demon core, I can take it directly. You are not qualified to negotiate with me."

After saying that, Liu Muzhe pinched the little fox's neck with one hand, and a bead as big as a lychee with a red glow inside flew out of the little fox's mouth and was held in his hand.

"You... act like a villain, just robbing other people's things directly?" Ye Jing'an said.

"..." Liu Muze took a deep breath, holding the bead in his hand and said to Ye Jing'an, "This is mine. I took it from an old fox that has become a demon. Who would want its little demon pill?"

When the little fox heard this, he thought about his demon pill, which was no bigger than a small bean, and realized it was not worthy of his attention. He gave up struggling completely, and lay on the ground with his ears drooping and his eyes blank, waiting to die.

"It looks so pitiful." Qiu Zimu likes small animals and has never seen such actions.

"A little bit indeed." Looking at the little fox's appearance, Ye Jing'an had forgotten how he had just been tormented.

Liu Muze: "..."

"Brother Liu, why don't you let it go?"

"It was also killed by people. It's really pitiful."

Liu Muzhe looked at the demon pill in his hand and frowned as if something had occurred to him. "Pathetic? The owner of this demon pill in my hand killed an entire village! The blood flowed like a river, it was a horrific sight, and even the children were not spared."

"This is another fox demon. Demons are different from each other, just like good people and bad people." Ye Jing'an said, "Although it is quite annoying and even licked my face, I don't want it to die."

"It just lacks cultivation now and can't kill people. Otherwise, wouldn't it be pitiful?" Liu Muzhe threw the demon pill to Ye Jing'an and walked out. "You can do whatever you want."

Ye Jingan looked at the demon pill and thought for a while, then squatted down to look at it: "How many people have you killed?"

"Just kill those three bad guys of mine." The little fox moved his ears.

Ye Jingan said: "Then if you give up your cultivation and promise not to kill anyone, I will let you reincarnate."

The little fox's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded, then spit out the demon pill and gave it to him.

Ye Jingan took the demon pill from the little fox, looked at the one Liu Muze gave him, and said in surprise: "It's so small!"

Little Fox: "..."

Ye Jingan realized that this sentence might have hurt its young heart, and added: "That's not bad. Why did you hide human bones in the sofa?"

The little fox said: "That bad guy killed too many small animals, and my bones are stained with the smell of many small animals. If I hide in there, no one will find me."

"So that's how it is. No wonder Brother Liu couldn't find you." Ye Jing'an smiled, "Okay, then go reincarnate."

The little fox walked to Ye Jing'an's feet, touched his shoes with his nose, and left.

Ye Jingan found Liu Muze on the third-floor balcony, returned the demon pill to him, and showed him the small demon pill pinched between his fingers: "And this."

Liu Muze glanced at it and didn't see anything in his hand: "It's too small, keep it for yourself to play with."

Ye Jingan raised his hand again and took a look. It was indeed small. He couldn't even see the demon pill when he pinched it with two fingers. He had just said that Brother Liu was blatantly stealing other people's things. He had so many treasures, so he would definitely not look down on this thing. "Brother Liu, I'm sorry."

Liu Muze turned his head and looked at Ye Jingan. After a long silence, he asked, "Do you think I'm a bad guy?"

Ye Jingan was stunned. He thought that he hadn't figured out anything yet, and yet he said Brother Liu was like a villain. Ye Jingan smiled awkwardly and said, "How could that be? Brother Liu is the best person in the world."

Liu Muze stared at the demon pill in his hand, a guilty expression on his face, and slowly said: "In the winter when I was twelve years old, I found a dying little fox in the snow. I took it home and took good care of it."

"It gradually regained its vitality, and I found that it had already developed intelligence and was very likely to become a demon. But it was very well-behaved and would not harm other people's chickens and ducks. When it was hungry, it would look for small insects and fruits to eat. It did not run around and liked to stay by my side. It was very cute." Liu Muzhe said with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, but his guilty expression remained unchanged.

"I couldn't bear to kill it, so I let it go. When we met again, it was sitting on a pile of dead bodies, gnawing on a newborn baby. It smiled and said to me that it still remembered me and thanked me for letting it go." The faint smile on Liu Muzhe's face had completely faded, replaced by murderous eyes. Ye Jing'an reached out and patted his arm.

"It even wanted to kill me..." Liu Muze laughed self-deprecatingly and continued, "I took its demon core and cut off its hind legs. It slowly crawled to my side using its front paws, saying it knew it was wrong and begging me to let it go. The adorable expression on its face was exactly the same as when I picked it up."

Liu Muze sighed, lowered his eyes, and whispered, "Because of my momentary weakness, I killed the entire village."

Ye Jingan slapped himself in his heart, why did he say that about him just now!

"Brother Liu, don't blame yourself. This is not your fault. You are the kindest and best person in the world!" Ye Jing'an moved closer, patted his back and comforted him.

Liu Muze's expression paused, and then he took Ye Jingan's hand away: "I said so much, not to prove that I am a good person, to ask for your comfort!"

"ah?"

Liu Muze sighed softly and explained, "All things have spirits, and all living things have destiny. It's right to have compassion, but you still have to think carefully before making a choice. Sometimes, a single wrong thought can lead to a huge mistake that cannot be rectified."

"I understand. I'm sorry, Brother Liu." Ye Jing'an tilted his head to look at him, "Then what did you mean by that question?"

"I want to know what kind of person I am in your heart." Liu Muze blurted out, but then he thought about it and felt that this sentence seemed a bit strange. He smiled lightly, waved his hand and said, "I just asked casually."

"Oh, you are the most powerful and the best person in my heart!" Ye Jing'an smiled.

Liu Muze's mouth corners unconsciously raised slightly: "Really? Don't you always say that people with the surname Liu don't help others in need?"

"Beating is love and scolding is care. Every word I scold you with is full of love for you!" Ye Jing'an's smile widened a little, and he reached out and slapped him.

Liu Muze stretched out his clenched fist and stared at him with a forced smile: "You said it!"

Ye Jing'an's mouth twitched, and he turned and ran away.

Liu Muzhe laughed out loud, there was really nothing he could do about him.

Ye Jing'an wanted to tell Wu Yuling about the villa, but he was afraid that she would be scared living there in the future, so he hesitated whether to tell her or not.

After much thought, I still feel that I should tell her. Sister Yuling's boss didn't tell her what happened at school, tricked her into signing the contract, and gave her the villa with problems without telling her about the problems. He is not a good person!

What's more, Sister Yuling is just a girl in her twenties. She works alone outside and hasn't found a boyfriend yet. If something really happens, there will be no one to protect her.

This leader is really bad!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Ye Jingan called Wu Yuling: "Sister Yuling, are you busy now? I have something to tell you."

Wu Yuling said: "I'm not busy, what's the matter?"

"Don't trust your boss in the future. He is not a good person!" Ye Jing'an told Wu Yuling everything about the villa.

"Ah... I'm so sorry, I didn't expect him to do this..." Wu Yuling felt guilty. She just wanted them to live here, but she didn't expect to cause trouble for them. She apologized again and insisted on giving the villa to them.

Ye Jingan said: "Really, no need, Sister Yuling, you're too polite. You should be more careful when working outside by yourself."

Wu Yuling smiled and said, "Yeah, thank you so much, come to my place and I'll treat you to a big meal!"

"Who are you talking to on the phone with so happily?" Qiu Zimu walked downstairs and took a bottle of drink.

"Sister Yuling." Ye Jing'an handed the phone to Qiu Zimu.

"Sister Yuling! I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance!" Qiu Zimu said with a smile.

The three of them chatted for a while before hanging up the phone.

"Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival. The house feels deserted. Should we go out and buy some things to decorate it?" Ye Jing'an suggested.

In the past, during holidays at the Ye family's house, his father would buy lots of red stickers, lanterns, and other decorations to decorate the house. The moment he walked in, he could feel the festive atmosphere. Now, scanning the room, all white walls and gray furniture were cold and desolate, devoid of any festive atmosphere.
