"What a coincidence! Isn't this our great hero Chen Xi!"
I looked up and found Jiu Ran standing in front of me:
"Jiu Ran? I can't believe I've run into you here. Shouldn't you have already returned to the Northeast?"
Jiu Ran smiled charmingly and then said:
"Our Nine-Tailed Fox said she wanted to see you, so she sent me to invite you over. I never expected to run into you on the way."
I was slightly puzzled. Why was Nine-Tails looking for me?
Given the Nine-Tailed Fox's status, it's unlikely they would send out Nine-Tailed Fox just to meet me alone.
However, it seems the other party meant no harm.
"Do you know why your Nine-Tails Lord wants to see me?"
Jiu Ran shook her head, then said:
"I'm not quite sure about that. But Lady Nine-Tails is very anxious. In fact, she wanted to find you a couple of days ago after the battle ended."
"There were too many people around you at the time, and Lord Nine-Tailed Fox felt it was inconvenient, so he asked me to come and invite you over alone today."
"If you're not busy, could you come with me to see Lord Nine-Tailed Fox?"
After thinking about it for a while, I decided to go and take a look. After all, with my current strength, no one can hurt me.
Then I followed Jiu Ran to a hotel. The hotel was very luxurious. If Jiu Wei stayed here, it would be in line with her class.
Nine-Tails led me to a top-tier private room, where Nine-Tails was sitting on the sofa eating fruit.
"Lord Nine-Tailed Fox, I have brought Chen Xi here, so I will take my leave now," Jiu Ran said respectfully.
Upon hearing Jiu Ran's words, the Nine-Tailed Fox turned its gaze in their direction, showing little expression, and simply said softly:
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. You can go ahead and do your own thing."
After giving a slight bow, Jiu Ran left the room and closed the door behind her.
Nine-Tails gestured for me to sit down on the sofa in front of her.
I didn't stand on ceremony and walked over to the sofa, plopping down on it.
After sitting down, I waited for Nine-Tails to speak.
I want to know why she called me here.
"The fruit here is very good, you should try some!" Nine-Tails spoke first, but only told me to eat the fruit.
I nodded, picked up a strawberry from the table, and put it in my mouth.
The room remained so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
"Back in the Demon Realm, how come I didn't realize you were her?" Nine-Tails swallowed the strawberry in her mouth and said softly.
"Who do you mean I look like?" I asked, somewhat intrigued.
Nine-Tails glanced at me, then shook its head: "It's not just similar, it is!"
"I am too familiar with her aura; I will never forget it, even after countless lifetimes."
"That was her unique aura, an aura that did not belong to this world. I once thought she was a god. Later, I also came into contact with people who were possessed by gods, but I found that the aura on her body was not that of a god either."
