Many years ago, this plain was teeming with snow-white foxes, their laughter and frolicking never ceasing. Once, a three-tailed fox tried every means to leave this place and go outside, but now, she is willing to give up everything and return to the past. If she could go back to those bygone days, she would surely obey her grandmother's words and would never attempt to go to the human world outside, thus bringing annihilation upon the entire fox plain.
Liuli lowered her eyes, her expression sorrowful.
Since arriving here, she has been sitting on this low hill, the very hill that Sakura loved most back then. For the past three days, she has remained motionless and silent, her usually bright eyes still, and she rarely even blinks.
Ge Yiyuan and Yu Xin sat facing each other not far from Liuli. They talked in hushed tones and occasionally glanced at Liuli. However, no matter what they said to Liuli in the past three days, she ignored them. So the two dared not say anything more and waited idly for her to react.
Li Molin sat cross-legged on a low hill some distance from Liuli, gazing intently at her. Over the past three days, he had gone to talk to Liuli countless times, asking her what she was thinking, whether she was saddened by the matter of Hu Yuan. But no matter what he said, Liuli remained silent.
Ji Jue was sleeping on the wild grass at the foot of the hill. Yu Ke and Lang Yuan were talking in hushed tones, while Ling Xi was half-lying down next to Li Molin, staring at Liu Li with her eyes half-closed.
As the sun set, Liuli remained motionless. Li Molin shook his head, sighed softly, stood up, and slowly walked over.
"Liuli." He sat down next to Liuli and said gently, "You haven't said a word for three days. What are you thinking about?"
Liuli's eyelashes trembled slightly. She licked her dry lips, coughed lightly, and said in a low voice with a hint of hoarseness, "I'm thinking about how to uproot all the Buddhist temples and wipe out the Buddhist community in the Central Plains!"
"It's easier said than done." Li Molin shook his head and said, "Back then, when the abbot of Bodhi Temple ascended to heaven and the temple was in chaos, I led so many people to launch a strong attack on Bodhi Temple, but we still couldn't take it down. Not to mention the other newly emerging small temples, how can we, with just a few people, destroy those three deeply rooted Buddhist temples?"
"I know it's difficult," Liuli said calmly, "which is why I've thought about it for so long."
Li Molin turned to look at her, and asked in confusion, "So you've come up with a solution?"
“Not bad.” Liuli nodded, her gaze icy, and said in a cold voice, “Let’s start with Bodhi Temple!”
Twenty years ago, the Nine-Tailed Fox clan was wiped out. Liuli was very puzzled as to how the Buddhist disciples discovered the Fox Plains. It was only later that Li Molin helped her investigate and learned that a monk from Bodhi Temple had secretly followed her and discovered the Fox Plains. In addition to feeling guilty and resentful, Liuli naturally hated Bodhi Temple the most.
Li Molin's lips curled slightly as he asked, "Tell me, what method have you come up with?"
"Use Gu," Liuli said coldly, "Demon Ant Gu."
Li Molin was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "The Demon Ant Gu is useful, but we have no chance to place it on the mountain quietly. The Demon Ant Gu is too weak. Once the disciples of Bodhi Temple discover that we have released the Gu, it will be useless."
"I have my own way." Liuli turned to look at Ge Yiyuan and called out, "Ge Yiyuan, come here!"
"Yes!" Ge Yiyuan responded loudly, stood up, and strode over, asking, "What are your orders, Miss?"
Liu Li looked up at Ge Yiyuan and said calmly, "Go back to the Demon Realm and ask Elder Poison for ten thousand Demon Ant Gu."
Among the demons, there was an old man who loved to develop poisons and was especially skilled at raising Gu poisons, so people called him "Poison Old Man".
"Ten thousand?" Ge Yiyuan's eyes widened in shock. After a pause, he said with a bitter face, "Miss, it would be easy for you to get two or three hundred Demon Ant Gu, but to ask for so many at once, Elder Poison will definitely not be willing to give them to you!"
Liuli looked down at the storage ring on her hand, frowning as she pondered what she should use to exchange for the ant gu, lost in thought.
Seeing her expression, Li Molin glanced at Ge Yiyuan's pained face. A flash of green light appeared on his storage bracelet, and a jet-black token materialized out of thin air, floating in front of Ge Yiyuan. Li Molin said in a deep voice, "Use His Excellency's name to ask for it."
"Yes!" Ge Yiyuan was overjoyed when he saw the words "Demon Lord's Token" on the token. He put the token away and said happily, "Thank you, young master. I will go and get it now, young lady."
Liu Li looked up and was taken aback. After a moment's hesitation, she decided not to owe Li Molin any more favors and politely declined, saying, "I won't trouble you, young master. I'll exchange some of my things with Elder Poison for the ant gu."
"Ge Yiyuan, go." Li Molin shook his head at Liuli, then turned to instruct Ge Yiyuan.
"Well... alright." Liuli nodded hesitantly and said to Ge Yiyuan, "After you come back, have the Demon Feather Bird take you to find me. I will leave here after that."
"Your subordinate obeys!" Ge Yiyuan replied, then turned and flew away.
"Thank you so much, Young Master Li." Liuli turned to look at Li Molin and said sincerely, "You have helped me many times, and I remember your kindness. If you ever need my help in the future, I will definitely do my best to help you."
Li Molin shook his head helplessly and said, "If you really want to thank me, then don't call me Young Master anymore. Just call me Li Molin as before."
Liuli paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."
She then turned her gaze to Lingxi and called out, "Lingxi, come here!"
When Lingxi saw Liuli looking over, she was so startled that she trembled. When she heard Liuli calling her, she shrank back even more.
