Yi Mu and Bei Zhu took a week off, planning to spend a few days having fun in the mountains.
On Yan Shengzhou's side, Yan Sheng kept bombarding him with phone calls and emails, practically ready to come by helicopter to arrest him.
He and Yan Shengchao switched identities every three years. One of them would stay at the Xuanmen headquarters to handle documents from the outside world, while the other would go out into the world to subdue troublesome demons.
From the age of sixteen, the two of them had always handled matters of the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) very well.
It was only after Yi Mu appeared that Yan Shengzhou began to take unconventional paths.
Yan Sheng has been thinking lately that Yi Mu might be the nemesis of the Xuanmen. Perhaps it was because the heavens couldn't bear to see the Xuanmen suppressing the demon realm, so they arranged for Yi Mu to meet the two brothers.
He doesn't even dare to think about how he would react if Yan Shengchao discovered that his twin brother was having an affair with his beloved.
It must have been a cataclysmic battleground.
On the fourth day that Yan Shengzhou and Yi Mu were in the mountains, Yan Sheng called, his voice unusually tense.
"Second Young Master, the Patriarch knows that you and Miss Leng have fallen out and has sent someone to invite you back. Why don't you go back before things get out of hand?"
Yan Shengzhou was still thinking of finding a suitable opportunity to tell his family about Leng Jia's matter, but he didn't expect the Leng family to be so impatient first.
If the people of the Xuanmen attack the Fox Clan, it will likely cause a huge uproar.
Yan Shengzhou wanted Yi Mu to go with him to another place.
But Yi Mu had finally come back, and all he wanted to do was have fun; he wasn't so easily persuaded.
Yan Shengzhou finally managed to trick the person down the mountain through a combination of threats and deception.
No sooner had they left than trouble struck the fox clan.
The people of the Xuanmen have always been domineering, and the people who came this time were the sect leader's confidants. It was said that the one who seduced Yan Shengzhou was a member of the fox clan, so after arriving in the fox clan's territory, they took action without saying a word.
They were certain that Yan Shengzhou and Yi Mu had left, and in order to teach the arrogant fox clan a lesson, they used a large number of magical artifacts and talismans, almost injuring all the foxes in the entire mountain range.
Yi Mu had fox blood flowing through his veins, and he could sense that something had happened to the fox clan.
But Yan Shengzhou didn't know that he only wanted to move the position before the Xuanmen people arrived, fearing that it would cause trouble for the fox clan.
They rested at a hotel at the foot of the mountain, but Yimu remained absent-minded.
After Yan Shengzhou came out of the bathroom, Yi Mu suddenly stood up and said solemnly, "I have to go back."
Yan Shengzhou wouldn't let it go; he stopped Yi Mu, saying, "After we leave, I'll have someone go back and check. Maybe it's just your imagination."
Just as Yi Mu was about to reject him, suddenly, an ancient and far-reaching bell rang out from outside.
Yi Mu's expression changed drastically. This was the bell that the fox clan would ring when they faced a calamity.
One long and two short.
Sweat beaded on Yi Mu's forehead as he stood anxiously in place. Upon hearing the next two chimes, his body moved faster than his mind, and he turned and disappeared from the room.
Yan Shengzhou also sensed that something was wrong.
He closed his eyes and sensed the surrounding area within a hundred miles.
When his consciousness touched the magical artifact of the Xuanmen sect, Yan Shengzhou opened his eyes abruptly, his face turning deathly pale.
An unprecedented sense of terror and panic overwhelmed him. He didn't even have time to change his clothes before chasing after Yi Mu's scent.
Yimu moved quickly. He saw the raging fire covering the mountain, and the little fox cubs fleeing in a sorry state, their fur charred black, screaming in pain.
His only concern was for his grandfather and parents, and he rushed into the fire without a second thought.
Yan Shengzhou, who arrived at lightning speed, pulled him back, his expression more serious than ever before.
"Mumu, I will do everything I can to rescue your family. You stay where you are and don't go anywhere. Be good."
Perhaps it was the soothing effect of his gaze, but Yi Mu nodded, grabbed his arm, and said with a complicated expression, "Be careful."
Yan Shengzhou turned and entered the sea of fire, his bathrobe replaced by a black robe.
