Chapter 191: The Fox Spirit (4)
The surge of blood within his body completely subsided, and the reason for this was that he had drunk the blood of this fox. For thousands of years, Gu Xuefeng had tried countless ways to resolve his bloodline issues, but to no avail. Unexpectedly, the solution had come to him of its own accord.
Where did this fox come from?
What secrets does he hold?
"It's so dirty. If you don't want to die, wash yourself clean." Gu Xuefeng reached out and threw the fox back into the pond.
Wen Yan: "..."
"Gu Xuefeng, go to hell! Throwing it down from that height hurts!!!" This isn't some snow fairy, this is a snow demon, so vicious, she even tries to beat and kill a defenseless fox.
Wen Wan tried to run away, but a barrier instantly appeared around the pool, bouncing her back into the pool. Wen Wan could only stay away from the male lead and start brushing her fur in a corner until she washed all the mud off her body.
Then, in the next second, he was pulled by a suction force and grabbed by Gu Xuefeng.
Gu Xuefeng had already dressed at some point. After grabbing her in his hand, Wen Wan felt a warm breeze blow over her the next second, and the water on her body dried completely.
The little fox, who had just finished its bath, turned into a snow-white glutinous rice ball again.
Gu Xuefeng was somewhat satisfied, then carried the fox and left the hot spring. Soon, several disciples came in, saying, "Greetings, Sect Master."
Gu Xuefeng had someone bring some medicine and personally applied it to Wen Wan's injured claws. Instantly, Wen Wan's claws were healed, and the wounds were almost invisible. It was truly a miracle cure.
What Wen Wan didn't know was that from the moment she appeared, the disciples serving her below, though outwardly calm, were inwardly utterly shocked. Where did the sect leader get a fox? It didn't even look like a spirit beast, but just an ordinary fox. Not only was she holding it in her arms, but she was also using top-grade spiritual medicine on it. In the cultivation world, a bottle of spiritual medicine would be a treasure that ten thousand people would fight over, yet it was used on this worthless fox.
They felt a deep sense of jealousy.
Jealous of this ordinary fox.
"Sect Master, the Seventh Elder has sent over the list of disciples who passed the new student trial. A banquet for accepting new disciples will be held in three days. The Seventh Elder is asking if you wish to attend."
Wen Wan subconsciously stared at Gu Xuefeng.
"No--"
Wen Wan slapped Gu Xuefeng's hand with her claw, the sound was quite loud, and the disciples below exclaimed: "!!!"
This fox is incredibly audacious! How dare it attack the sect leader? Although this fox has no spiritual cultivation, it's quite cute and endearing. It would be a real shame if the sect leader killed it.
"You want me to go?"
Wen Wan: "Of course, if you don't go, your wife will run off with someone else." Wouldn't all her efforts be wasted?
Gu Xuefeng: "..." What on earth is this fox cub talking about? What wife? Could it be that the fox's owner deliberately let it get close to him?
"I will go and inform the Seventh Elder. You may leave now."
Disciples: "!!!"
They were greatly shocked that the sect leader had actually changed his decision because of a fox.
Wen Wan was unaware that wherever there are people, there is gossip. As soon as these disciples left Qianxue Palace, they immediately learned that the sect leader had obtained an extremely precious white fox and was spoiling it rotten.
When Lin Qingshui returned from the trial and discovered that Xiaobai was missing, she was extremely anxious.
"Senior brother, where did Xiaobai go?"
Shen Qianyuan frowned as well. "The barrier I set up shows no signs of being damaged."
"How did Xiaobai leave?"
Shen Qianyuan inspected the place thoroughly and then found a pit in the corner of the house outside.
"I think I know how Xiaobai left. She dug a hole and left. I said before that this fox demon wouldn't be too peaceful. Even though she lost her demon core, she still doesn't have any good intentions. Just leave her alone. If she meets other people outside, she'll probably die."
Lin Qingshui: "..."
Lin Qingshui's eyes reddened slightly. "Senior brother, how could you say that? Xiaobai is just an ordinary fox now. We've spent so much time together and she hasn't hurt me. I don't want her to die."
Shen Qianyuan grew anxious. "Why don't we go out and look for it? We're sure we can find it."
In the end, they searched many places but couldn't find it. Then they heard that the sect leader, Gu Xuefeng, had obtained a white fox and doted on it.
The two of them: "!!!"
Lin Qingshui whispered to her senior brother, "Senior brother, is that fox in the sect leader's hand Xiaobai? Did Xiaobai accidentally enter the sect leader's territory and then get taken away by the sect leader? I hope she's alright."
Shen Qianyuan: "It should be fine. Didn't they say the sect leader dotes on that fox?"
"I hope so."
...
Wen Wan stayed in Qianxue Palace for three days and tried to escape several times, but Gu Xuefeng discovered her each time. Then, Gu Xuefeng cast a spell on her, the Seven-Step Curse, which, as the name suggests, prevented her from leaving Gu Xuefeng's side by more than seven steps.
Wen Wan had no choice but to stay by Gu Xuefeng's side, and she gave up.
It has to be said that Gu Xuefeng's life is really monotonous. He spends his days reading and cultivating, occasionally dealing with one or two matters sent by the elders. He has never even left the Qianxue Palace.
Wen Wan yawned.
Its tail curled itself up into a ball and huddled to the side.
"Is this male lead really a top-tier otaku? Even more so than me." She's an otaku too, but she can't live without smart devices like phones and TVs, otherwise, she'd probably go crazy just staying home like that.
[As long as he attends the apprentice-acceptance ceremony, the female lead will definitely become his disciple.]
"I hope so."
The apprenticeship ceremony arrived quickly.
Thousands of people came, but only three hundred passed the trial, and only thirty became inner disciples, who could be chosen by the elders to be their personal disciples. The rest became outer disciples.
"Have you heard? Sect Leader Gu will be attending the disciple-acceptance ceremony this time. Do you think he will accept any disciples?"
"Really? But doesn't Sect Master Gu never accept disciples? If someone were to become the Sect Master's personal disciple, it would be an unparalleled honor."
Lin Qingshui and Shen Qianyuan were also very excited to hear these words.
Lin Qingshui: "I hope we can have the opportunity to become disciples of the sect leader. If Father knew, he would be extremely happy."
"Junior sister is so outstanding, she can definitely do it."
"Senior brother, you're just flattering me. If we're talking about excellence, you're the one who's truly outstanding. Many elders liked you during this freshman trial."
Soon, the elders led their disciples into the main hall.
As for taking over, no one has come yet.
"Seventh Elder, is it true that the Sect Master will come?" Elder Lin asked.
"Of course, the sect leader said it himself."
"They're here."
Gu Xuefeng suddenly appeared in the main seat of the hall, and all the elders quickly stood up and bowed, "Greetings, Sect Master."
The disciples quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Master."
Lin Qingshui glanced up cautiously out of the corner of her eye, first stunned by the appearance of Sect Leader Gu, and then noticing what the Sect Leader was carrying.
"noob?"
Shen Qianyuan looked over, somewhat surprised, "Junior sister, don't speak."
