When he came to his senses, the joy that welled up inside him made him burst into laughter, and he put a chicken leg on Tu Shan Lingxi's plate without a second thought.
Wan Qijin felt inexplicably displeased as she watched the little fox fawn over Yin Changling and lick his fingers.
Therefore, he deliberately mentioned the word "demon" while Tu Shan Lingxi was enjoying her meal, as a small act of revenge against this heartless little fox.
"Yes, I am also very curious. How can this fox understand human speech? Could it be a powerful demon?"
The word "demon" is very sensitive at this time because many years ago, humans and demons coexisted. Demons used their demonic power to enslave humans, and the two races became enemies.
But for some reason, it became increasingly difficult for great demons to reproduce. They could only give birth to half-demons by mating with humans. Gradually, the number of demons decreased, and the demonic power of half-demons also declined significantly.
The demon race thus slowly perished and disappeared into the long river of history.
This is why humans also deeply hate demons, and to this day, demons have become something that everyone hates and venges.
Sure enough, Tu Shan Lingxi, having understood Wan Qijin's words, stopped wagging her fluffy tail and lost interest in the meat in her mouth; the whole beast was depressed.
"Waaah~"
Tu Shan Lingxi was heartbroken, very heartbroken. She pushed away the plate in front of her, listless, wanting to leave Yin Changling's embrace and go off alone in her gloom.
"Don't worry if you're sad. The Imperial Advisor may fear you, but I don't, even if you're a great demon."
Yin Changling lifted Tu Shan Lingxi's little front paws, looked at the little fox's sad eyes, was taken aback at first, then pinched her little paws and teased her.
"Otherwise, you can go to my palace, and I will take care of you."
Yin Changling really liked this little guy. He didn't know why, even though he didn't like others touching her, not even small animals.
But Tu Shan Lingxi was an exception; she fell in love with this pure white, exceptionally intelligent little fox almost at first sight.
"Awooooo~"
Tu Shan Lingxi was fine when she wasn't being comforted, but as soon as she was, her big, bright black eyes started to well up with tears, and she was about to cry.
So what if she's a demon? Who does it bother? Why is the Imperial Advisor picking on her this time? She wasn't like this in her previous life.
"Awooooo~"
Tu Shan Lingxi felt more and more aggrieved. She buried her head in Yin Changling's arms, her little body trembling and twitching. She was extremely aggrieved.
The small white blob stood out against Yin Changling's dark robes, yet it blended in perfectly.
Wan Qijin never expected that a slight reprimand from him would cause this little white fox to burst into tears!
The Grand Preceptor, who had lived for over twenty years, had never encountered anything like this before. His cold eyes cracked inch by inch, his purple pupils widened infinitely, and he became unusually at a loss.
He wanted to say something to cheer up the little fox, but he forgot that he was not good at it at all. He stood there blankly, unable to utter a single word.
Wan Qijin began to feel endless self-reproach, blaming herself for being so talkative. The little fox could eat whatever it wanted; there were no taboos. She had to bring up things she shouldn't have.
Wan Qijin was bad at comforting people, but Yin Changling was adept at it. Perhaps it was because Yin Changling grew up with wolves and therefore had a special affinity for canines.
Yin Changling rubbed her little ears and was startled by the soft, furry touch.
"My dear, you poor thing, come back to the palace with me, and you won't have to suffer here anymore, okay?"
Yin Changling's usually unmoved heart softened for once. He gently patted Tu Shan Lingxi's small body and comforted her softly.
Not only him, but even the dragon energy on his body began to stir, rushing towards Tu Shan Ling Xi's small body, eager to feed the little fox to her heart's content.
Before long, the dragon energy broke through the simple magic array set up by the Imperial Preceptor and rushed into Tu Shan Lingxi's small body, causing her spiritual energy to surge and almost explode.
"Awoooooo!"
At the sound of Tu Shan Lingxi's cry of pain, Wan Qijin, disregarding his regret and self-blame, quickly got up and snatched the little fox back.
"She's in danger, don't follow her."
After leaving behind a few hasty words, Wan Qijin disappeared without a trace. Yin Changling clenched his fist, then relaxed it, and finally let it go helplessly.
As evening approached, he didn't know when they would meet again, but with so many affairs in the palace, he had to return as soon as possible.
Finally, Yin Changling glanced in the direction the little fox had left, looked away with slight disappointment, sighed, and left.
