In the spacious and bright bedroom, a huge lion lies on the brand new big bed.
He closed his eyes, as if he was sleeping. The flames on his body had all retracted, and even the wings on his back were tightly attached to his muscular back. Only the tail that occasionally lifted up and swayed, and the silver-white flame that flickered on the tip of the tail, indicated that its owner was not asleep, but was resting with his eyes closed.
Wen Xingyao was recalling his experiences over the past half day. In the morning he was still planting crops and harvesting vegetables in the game, but at noon he suddenly achieved a double jump in form. Not only did he completely get rid of his childhood, he also changed back to human form from the lion form of his adulthood.
Although it didn't take long to transform back into human form, it was still a good improvement and he was very satisfied.
Afterwards, he was fed a large mouthful of the strange energy from Bai Li. The cool invisible air flowed slowly throughout his body, soothing some aching parts and making him feel more relaxed and refreshed.
After the last bit of energy was completely absorbed by the body, Wen Xingyao slowly opened his eyes.
Just a little bit more, Wen Xingyao said to himself.
Wen Xingyao was not anxious about whether he could maintain his human form. He was confident that this day would come. Instead of looking forward to this day coming sooner, he might as well cherish the time he could spend with Bai Li.
Thinking of Bai Li, the tail behind him turned around a few times in a good mood.
Glancing at the dark blue game console in the room, Wen Xingyao hesitated for a few seconds and thought that he should go outside the room to see if Bai Li was somewhere else in the house before going online to play the game.
Thinking of this, he opened the door and went out.
Fortunately, as soon as he walked down the stairs, he saw Bai Li sitting on the sofa in the living room, and his steps towards him were filled with unconscious eagerness.
However, before he could get completely close to Bai Li, his keen nose smelled the scent of an "invader". Not only that, but then a faint "howl" sound was heard, and the sound was milky and could be heard at once, as if it were only made by a cub.
Thinking of the special care that Bai Li might give to the cub, the lion's face suddenly became serious. If it weren't for the hair covering his face, it would have been as black as the bottom of a pot.
Walking closer, he saw the "cub"'s black fur, with only its tail curled up and hidden under its body. It lay weakly on Bai Li's legs, and its "howling" sound turned into "whimpering" and sounded increasingly weak.
"Why is he here?" Wen Xingyao's tone was tense, and his face was full of diswelcome and resistance.
Bai Li then noticed Wen Xingyao's appearance, and secretly sighed that cats really make no sound when they walk. He told the whole story of how he found the "cub" Zhu Moling: "I found him in the corner of the yard. I don't know when he ran over. He was already unconscious when I found him. He looked like a smaller version of the one we encountered at noon. I guessed he might be in the same situation as you, so I brought him in."
"You woke up not long after you were brought in. I don't know why, but you seem to be even more delicate and clingy than when you were a child..."
After saying that, he lowered his head and stretched out his fingers to tease the little black fox in his arms a few times.
Wen Xingyao: “…”
He had to take a deep breath to suppress the urge to rush forward and kick the black fox away.
Also, he looked at the excited Bai Li and doubted the truth of his words. Did Bai Li really bring the black fox back because the black fox looked weak, or was it because the young fox cub looked cute and moved him?
For a moment, Wen Xingyao actually regretted turning back into a human form...
At this moment, the fox cub seemed to sense the breath of danger. Regardless of its physical weakness, it rushed into Bai Li's arms and didn't even dare to stick its head out.
Not only did Bai Li not resist this sudden action, he also smiled and said to Wen Xingyao: "Haha, you see, he is really timid and clingy, which is quite interesting."
"..." Wen Xingyao fell completely silent.
The air was quiet for a few seconds before Wen Xingyao thought of the right words to say, "Even if you find it interesting, he is essentially an orc, and the leader of the Sky Fox Clan. I don't know why his protectors didn't show up, but I think they must be very anxious now. I have their contact information. Now that he has woken up, we should contact him as soon as possible to send him back."
Bai Li agreed after thinking about it. Although he was reluctant to leave this chubby black fox, the fox was an orc with status. How could he stay with a stranger for no reason? The fox's situation was different from Wen Xingyao's.
Without much hesitation, he agreed to Wen Xingyao's proposal.
Wen Xingyao was secretly delighted. He found the contact information of the relevant person in the address book and called in front of Bai Li. His optical brain was implanted, so even though he was in the lion state, he could still use it normally.
However, the call was always busy and no one answered until it automatically hung up because it was taking too long.
Wen Xingyao's face turned dark, and he changed someone else to call, but the call was still not connected.
"What's wrong?" Bai Li watched Wen Xingyao's face becoming increasingly darker, and had a bad feeling.
"No one answered." Wen Xingyao lowered his head and left a message to tell them that their clan leader was with him and asked them to come quickly to pick up the people. He copied the same message and sent it to another person, "Maybe he's busy looking for someone. I left them a message. They should get back to me soon after they see it."
"Oh." Bai Li nodded and said in an excited tone, "Does that mean he can stay at our house until they come to pick him up?"
Although he wanted to say "no", the subsequent development was almost certain. Wen Xingyao nodded reluctantly and confirmed Bai Li's statement.
"I'll go get him some hot goat milk!" Bai Li carefully placed the black fox on the soft sofa and excitedly ran to the kitchen to get busy.
Taking advantage of Bai Li's absence, Wen Xingyao stepped forward, raised his lion's paw, and flipped the ignorant fox cub over, then said with disdain, "Humph, you got it for free!"
What he felt more was a complaint about his childhood: he was such a big eater, why didn't he drink up all the goat milk in Bai Li's hand?
"Ah, aah?" The fox cub was suddenly flipped upside down and cried out in confusion. He used his hands and feet to gather his tail into his arms and began to bite the tip of his tail carefreely.
This place makes him feel so comfortable, he needs to have a good sleep!
Wen Xingyao looked down upon the fox cub's childish appearance. He jumped onto the sofa farthest from him and sat down with dignity. After thinking for a while, he sent another message to the two people whose contact information he had.
"hurry up."
However, what he didn't know was that the two messages he sent were destined to receive no reply.
In a villa in the same community, Fox One and Fox Two gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
"The one who sent us the communication and information was the Admiral himself, right?" Fox One was a serious middle-aged man, with a square face full of worry and confusion. "I heard that the Admiral has been missing for quite some time. Is he actually living on the Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs Planet?"
He did not doubt the authenticity of the communication number, but he could not understand how their clan leader could be connected to the admiral. Therefore, when he saw the name, he did not make up his mind to click the call.
"It must be Admiral Wen Xingyao!" Fox Two is a young man in his early twenties, with a more eccentric personality than Fox One. "What should we do, brother? Should we go and bring the clan leader back? He has regressed to his childhood. I am worried about him being alone outside."
The two of them followed the clan leader, searching for their young master all over the stars, and recently stopped at the "Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs Star". A few days ago, the clan leader was happy to tell them that he seemed to have found a little trace of the young master, but today, the clan leader's genetic collapse disorder could no longer be controlled.
They already knew that the patriarch transformed into a huge black fox and destroyed a residential building. Fox One went to deal with the subsequent compensation and comfort of the victims, while Fox Two continued to track the patriarch.
As a result, the two brothers met by chance outside Bai Li's newly bought villa, and they learned that the patriarch, who had turned into a child, had run into the villa unconsciously. The owner of the villa was the "victim" that Fox had been looking for all the way.
Fox One: "..."
Fox Two: “…”
What kind of evil fate is this.
Seeing that the patriarch's childhood was carried into the house by a young man who suddenly appeared in the yard, the two decided to stay put and bought another villa next door to protect him secretly.
"Bring the clan leader back? And then send him to 'Star Hope' according to the empire's custom?" Fox One's face darkened, and he said to Fox Two earnestly, "Don't forget that our young master disappeared on 'Star Hope'. We, the Sky Fox clan, cannot let the same accident happen twice."
Fox Two stopped talking, he knew that Fox One had already made a decision, which was to temporarily leave the clan leader at the home of the young man named "Bai Li", while the two of them would protect him at all times to prevent other accidents from happening.
"How should we respond to the admiral's message?" Fox Two asked.
He thought suspiciously for a moment and said, "Let's pretend we didn't see it. If the admiral asks about it later, just say we didn't receive any news. Well, let's take it one step at a time. We can delay it for as long as we can. I think that young man has a good character and should take good care of our clan leader."
After making this hasty decision, the two of them began to discuss how to hand the nutrition fee to Bai Li with legitimate reasons without being discovered.
On the other side, Bai Li didn't know that he was forced to become the caregiver of the fox cub for a period of time in the future. He fed the black fox hot goat milk, and put the newly delivered fox den and fox villa in the empty room opposite the bedroom on the third floor, and let him live in that room for the time being.
After watching the fox cub fall into a deep sleep, he carefully closed the door, looked at Wen Xingyao, and then went back to their rooms and logged into the game.
The moment he entered the game, an idea suddenly came to Bai Li's mind. Since Wen Xingyao could log into the game by connecting to the game cabin, could the fox cub Zhu Moling also do it?
However, he didn't have any extra game spots now, so he had to wait until next month if he wanted to try. But by next month, the other party would probably have been picked up, right?
