"Who are you?" At this moment, a child took advantage of the adults' inattention and rushed up to Leng Yue, asking curiously.
Leng Yue smiled and said, "Hello, we are Biluo's friends." Leng Yue didn't dare to say that she was looking for Biluo's family. What if Biluo didn't have any family? Wouldn't they just kick them out?
Sure enough, as soon as Leng Yue finished speaking, someone came out and said, "So you're Bi Luo's friends! We thought you were bad guys! Come with me, I'll take you to see Grandma!"
After speaking, the man happily walked ahead to lead the way. Leng Yue couldn't help but facepalm. These Qingqiu fox clan members were really naive. Just because they heard Biluo's name, they thought they were good people? She really didn't know what to say.
Their maternal grandmother lived at the very back, on the other side of the Qingqiu Fox Clan. It took them half an hour to walk there. Her house wasn't anything special; it seemed there were no special privileges within the Qingqiu Fox Clan!
"Alright, Grandma's inside. I'll take you in." The person said, pushing open Grandma's door and calling out, "Grandma, I've brought some people! Come out and see, they're Sister Biluo's friends!"
At this moment, an elderly woman with completely white hair came out from the inner room. Actually, although she was called an old woman, her skin was still very good and she didn't look old at all. Moreover, this old woman was also quite beautiful.
"Are you Grandma?" Leng Yue stepped forward to greet her first. "Hello, we are Biluo's friends. My name is Leng Yue." Qian Chen saw that Grandma was looking at her, so she replied softly, "Qian Chen, this is my name. This child is called Jiuwei. He is Biluo's child."
"This is Biluo's child?" Grandma reached out and took the Nine-Tailed Fox. "No wonder it carries Biluo's aura! By the way, where is Biluo?" Grandma held the child and turned to look at Leng Yue. "Why didn't Biluo come with you?"
“Biluo is dead. We arrived too late. She entrusted her child to us.” Leng Yue said sadly, “She was buried at Shili Pavilion.”
"How could he die?" Grandma looked at Leng Yue, then looked down at Jiuwei. "He's human? This child has human blood, doesn't he?"
After discovering the bloodline in the Nine-Tailed Fox, Grandma's expression changed drastically, and she threw the child away, shouting, "They're all a menace! Humans are all a menace!"
With lightning speed, Qianchen caught the Nine-Tails and held her in his arms. Just then, the Nine-Tails woke up and, after being spun around in Qianchen's arms, started giggling carefree again.
Qianchen tapped the Nine-Tailed Fox's forehead, "You're always grinning like an idiot, you almost fell over!"
Leng Yue was also surprised by her grandmother's sudden change of attitude. "Grandma, how could you hurt the child?"
"Get out! Get out!" Grandma pushed them out. "Biluo is disobedient. I can't let you corrupt the entire Qingqiu Fox Clan. Get out, or I'll kill this child!"
Left with no other choice, Leng Yue could only walk outside with Qian Chen. "Why? This is Bi Luo's child after all. Why is she so hostile towards this child?"
The person who had led the way didn't react so strongly, but after they went outside, they looked at Nine-Tails and exclaimed, "Is she really Sister Biluo's child? She's so beautiful, just as beautiful as Sister Biluo!"
"Why does Grandma hate humans so much?" Leng Yue asked a few questions, seeing that the person seemed kind enough.
“You don’t need to worry about it. Humans have always been cunning. Many demon hunters want our Qingqiu fox clan’s inner core. That’s why Grandma hates humans so much.” After saying that, the person pinched the nine-tailed fox’s face again. “Actually, I don’t care that much, but Grandma doesn’t like it. Otherwise, I would definitely help Sister Biluo raise this child.”
Hearing this, Leng Yue shook her head instead, "No, no, you're still a child yourself, how can you talk to a child like that?"
"I am already four hundred years old, and in another hundred years I will reach adulthood. At that time, I can determine my gender and go out to gain experience." The man said, with a longing expression on his face.
Leng Yue sighed and said finally, "I advise you not to go out. Biluo was tricked out of her inner core and died. Otherwise, we could have saved her."
After Leng Yue finished speaking, she and Qian Chen left together. Since the people here were unwilling to raise children, there was no need for them to stay any longer.
"What should we do? Who else would want the Nine-Tailed Fox?" Leng Yue was also troubled. Not to mention that the child had fox ears, it would be difficult to find a suitable adopter for her half-demon bloodline.
"No rush, look how well-behaved this child is, someone will definitely want her." Qianchen glanced at Jiuwei, and seeing her yawn again, couldn't help but smile. "How can this child sleep so much? She hasn't eaten yet, isn't she hungry?"
Perhaps it was because Qianchen spoke; as soon as he finished speaking, the Nine-Tailed Fox burst into tears. The sound of its crying was absolutely deafening.
"Alright, alright, it's your fault for having such a sharp tongue!" Leng Yue caught the nine-tailed fox, hugged it in her arms and coaxed it, "Alright, alright, I'll take you downstairs to find something to eat right away, don't cry, don't cry."
"Let's go down. There's no food for her up there." Leng Yue sighed, but as soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that Jiuwei had stopped crying.
"You're quite clever, looking around as soon as you heard it was in the sky!" Leng Yue said, creating a small barrier for the Nine-Tailed Fox. "Be careful not to hurt you. You're in such a hurry, it's really not like your mother."
Leng Yue let the Nine-Tailed Fox perch on her shoulder and said to her, "How is it? Can you see it more clearly now?"
Nine-Tailed Fox smiled without showing her teeth, her eyes narrowed as she curiously watched the passing clouds. After Qianchen landed, she asked a family for some rice porridge.
"Isn't there any cow's milk or goat's milk?" Leng Yue looked at the dark rice porridge in the bowl and felt a little sorry for her. Although the nine-tailed fox was small, she didn't want to feed it to her.
"Bear with it for a bit, it'll be a while before we get to the town. Let's deal with this first." Qianchen said, handing the rice porridge in his hand to Lengyue.
Leng Yue glanced at it, then took out a spoon from her storage pouch and fed it to Nine-Tailed Fox spoonful by spoonful. Leng Yue wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she thought she saw Nine-Tailed Fox pout in disgust.
"There's nothing I can do, it doesn't taste good, but you need to eat. We'll buy you something delicious when we get to the market," Leng Yue said, feeding him while coaxing him. Qian Chen watched in disbelief, "Yueyue, the Nine-Tailed Fox is just a baby, are you sure she can understand?"
"Who knows? Babies have human rights too." After feeding Jiuwei the last spoonful of rice cereal, Leng Yue wiped her mouth and said, "This little one, will she grow up to be a glutton? She can really eat! By the way, is it okay for such a small baby to eat something so thick?"
Leng Yue cried out in surprise after finishing feeding him, and then the Nine-Tailed Fox's lips twitched visibly.
Leng Yue and Qian Chen exchanged a glance but said nothing. Then Qian Chen said, "It should be fine. After all, the Nine-Tailed Fox is not an ordinary person. This little bit of rice porridge should be no problem for her."
After Qianchen finished speaking, Jiuwei's lips twitched again. The two carried Jiuwei away, and Lengyue said, "It's unlikely that anyone will want this child."
Qianchen nodded, "Are we going to be stuck with this mess?"
Leng Yue: "Yes!"
Nine-Tails: ...Do you think I'm dead?
