Chapter 36. Having some knowledge of castration, he relieved his estrus...
Xue Wenxiang stood in the cold wind for half the night, getting angrier and angrier, and went back when the moon rose above the treetops.
The flickering candlelight in the cottage was warmer than the pale moonlight, stirring my heart and making me quicken my pace unconsciously.
As she approached the door, Xue Wenxiang smiled.
Xu Cangyu has actually closed down!
How could he close the door so easily?
Filled with resentment, Xue Wenxiang climbed in through the window, only to be seen by Xu Zangyu.
"...Uh, actually the door wasn't locked."
"..."
Xue Wenxiang stood there awkwardly, her anger rising but not falling, when her coquettish giggles caught his attention.
At this moment, Xu Zangyu was half-lying on the bed, touching a soft belly with his hand, and the smile had not yet faded from the corner of his mouth.
That wicked laugh just now came from this white-haired beast, who rolled around on the bedding, belly up.
Hold!
He threw that little bastard into the woods, how did he find him?
The bed he didn't even sleep in actually benefited from it.
"Why do you bring all sorts of things to the bed? This kind of furry fox not only smells bad, but it also has bugs on it."
Xu Zangyu parted the fur to check; it was very clean, with no smell at all, and the fluffy tail felt wonderful to the touch.
"The little fox isn't as dirty as you say. I used a magic spell to get it onto the bed."
Presumably because Xu Zangyu was defending it, the little fox wagged its tail even more enthusiastically, licked the back of Xu Zangyu's hand with its tongue, and didn't forget to glance at the dark-faced person standing next to it.
Xue Wenxiang thought he had misread it; was that little beast's look just now a provocation?
He's going to pluck that beast's hair off today!
Xue Wenxiang reached out to grab it, but before his hand even touched it, the little fox howled pitifully, its four hooves trembling uncontrollably. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought he had done something to the beast.
He subconsciously looked at Xu Zangyu, and seeing his reproachful gaze, he couldn't believe it and immediately choked up.
"How could you kill such a small fox!"
Xue Wenxiang retorted angrily, "Where did you see me touch it?"
Xu Cangyu picked up the trembling little fox, held it close to his chest, and stroked its head to comfort it. He then picked up the bandaged front paw, which was already soaked in blood.
The claw hung limply, as if it were broken.
"If you didn't do this, how could it have done it itself?"
Xue Wenxiang: "..."
He actually got outsmarted by a beast!!!
"If I were to take action, would this little thing still survive?"
Her temper flared, Xue Wenxiang grew angrier and more aggrieved. She took a sip of cold tea and then saw Xu Cangyu examining the beast from head to toe. The beast wagged its tail obsequiously, showing no signs of the near-death state it had just been in.
What's even more infuriating is that Xu Zangyu actually slept with this beast in his arms, the beast's head resting on his chest, undulating wildly, its pointed mouth grinning with an exaggerated smile.
This fox is clearly a spirit beast that has become a demon; I wonder what its true intentions are in pretending to follow Xu Zangyu.
Xue Wenxiang stayed up until midnight. After the noise from the bedside stopped, he suddenly got up from the bed. The dead fox was sleeping soundly on Xu Cangyu. He had only taken one step closer when the fox opened his eyes and stared at him.
Ordinary foxes don't have that kind of alertness.
He had anticipated this, so he used his spiritual power to immobilize the fox and put Xu Zangyu to sleep before grabbing the fox by the back of its neck and lifting it up.
"You dare to scheme against me? You're doomed for life."
Although the little fox couldn't move, its eyes stared at people with a gloomy look. Xue Wenxiang grabbed its fur without any mercy: "Your fur is quite nice. I'm sure many people will like it."
The hatred in her eyes deepened, and Xue Wenxiang sneered at its incompetence before carrying the fox to the market.
"Young Master Xue, your presence is truly a rare treat." The shopkeeper's narrow eyes forced a slick, greasy smile as he gestured for someone to bring a chair and personally served tea.
"You've come here..." He looked at Xue Wenxiang, who already had a small pet in her hand, and asked, puzzled.
Xue Wenxiang sat down on the sandalwood armchair and picked up the item in her hand: "I want a fox that looks exactly like this one?"
"Okay, sure."
The boss responded and quickly found one that was exactly the same; without close inspection, the eyes were almost indistinguishable.
The knowledgeable shopkeeper also noticed the problem: "Young Master Xue, this one is no different from the one you have, except that its eyes don't have the same spiritual quality as the one you have."
The fox in the boss's hands was dull and docile, but had been trained to be beautiful and obedient. Even when its neck was being held, it dared not move. It was much more docile than the cunning fox in his hands.
Xue Wenxiang was very satisfied and tossed the fox in her hand to the shopkeeper: "That is a spirit fox that I caught by chance. I sealed its spiritual power. It is very cunning and not good at being with people. I will leave it to you, shopkeeper."
This is a business that's like a windfall.
Ordinary foxes used for play are not even as good as a single hair of a spirit fox, and they are so beautiful that they could definitely fetch a good price if sold to cultivators.
"No wonder I thought this fox was of extraordinary appearance. Young master, you have a discerning eye. I will definitely find it a good home."
Fearing the fox might escape, the shopkeeper threw it into the spirit-locking cage after Xue Wenxiang let go, and only then did Xue Wenxiang leave with peace of mind.
Remembering that the fox still had an injury on its paw, I wrapped that paw with a cloth as well. By the time I finished and carried the fox back home, it was already dawn.
Xu Cangyu had already gotten up for his morning exercise, testing out his newly acquired sword with fluid and graceful movements. Seeing Xue Wenxiang walking towards him in the morning light, he exclaimed in surprise, "You went and bought an identical fox?"
Xue Wenxiang almost lost her composure. She took a breath and turned the little fox's face towards Xu Cangyu so he could see it clearly: "Why would you say that? Isn't this the same one from yesterday? I saw it sneak out this morning and it took me ages to find it again."
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Xu Zangyu pushed aside the weeds at her feet, and there was the fox that Xue Wenxiang had sold in the middle of the night, sleeping soundly on the ground, with Xu Zangyu's clothes spread out beneath it.
!!
"Could this thing that looks so much like it be its sibling?"
When Xu Cangyu tried to pick up the fox from Xue Wenxiang's arms, the fox noticed and immediately stood up, wrapping its big tail around Xu Cangyu's feet and acting spoiled. Xu Cangyu had no choice but to pick it up and coax it, rubbing its fluffy belly until the little fox whimpered.
Xue Wenxiang stared, his eyes wide with disbelief, looking even more bewildered than the clueless fox in his hand.
The haunting fox spirit couldn't even be trapped by the spirit-locking cage.
As he was touching it, Xu Cangyu suddenly realized something was wrong. He picked up the still-whining fox and looked at its belly. The hard object standing up in the snow-white fur was very obvious. He had accidentally touched it earlier.
"It's a male fox, it's... in heat?"
The little fox's body visibly stiffened, and its bushy tail quickly wrapped around its belly to cover its private parts. Xue Wenxiang sneered and touched the knife at her waist: "That's how beasts are. I happen to know a little about castration, so let me relieve its pain."
"Never mind, it's still injured."
The little fox looked at Xu Cangyu gratefully, its watery eyes looking extremely pitiful. But the next moment, it was thrown to the ground without any warning, and watched helplessly as Xu Cangyu used the Dust Removal Spell on its hand several times.
Without uttering a single word of complaint, he chilled the fox's heart.
Xue Wenxiang, gloating, said to the fox in her hand, "Press it down."
Unexpectedly, the little fox was really obedient. As soon as he let go, it ran to the dead fox and clung to it.
"It's a shame someone so beautiful doesn't have a child."
Fearing it might escape, Xue Wenxiang specially set up a small protective barrier: "I've given you a wife I carefully selected; you're lucky."
He pulled Xu Zangyu into the house: "Let's avoid looking at indecent things from now on."
The door closed behind him, and Xu Cangyu said, "Why are you closing the door in broad daylight?"
"You really think that little thing is an ordinary fox?"
He scoffed, "Ten foxes wouldn't be as clever as that one, and besides, even a Golden Core cultivator like you would have a hard time resisting that demonic insect. How could a mere white-haired beast withstand it?"
"It is indeed quite humane."
"I'm afraid it's coming for you."
What do you mean by that?
Xue Wenxiang took a pot of wine and shook it: "I don't believe this thing has no purpose. Don't forget this is the cultivation world. Even a spirit fox can transform into human form when it reaches a certain level of cultivation."
"There are quite a few folk fox spirits that transform into humans to steal people's cultivation through dual cultivation. How can you guarantee that this one doesn't have such thoughts?"
These words almost triggered Xu Zangyu's chilling memory of being nearly raped by a fox demon, which greatly diminished his good impression of the little fox. The thought of sharing a bed with that fox yesterday made him even more disgusted.
Xue Wenxiang took a sip of wine, his face flushed, and his eyes darkened. He locked his gaze on him. Perhaps the wine was taking effect, because he took a few more sips. The rich aroma of the wine wafted to Xu Cangyu's nose and grew stronger as he got closer.
"you--"
Xu Cangyu was really afraid that he would get drunk, but suddenly Xue Wenxiang pressed him against the window. The aroma of wine wafted from the tip of his nose into his mouth, spicy and sweet. The wine in his mouth was carried into Xu Cangyu's mouth.
After being forced to swallow, it continued to linger.
He got drunk way too fast...
The rambling fox outside had long been pinned to the ground by another fox, trembling and whimpering in submission. Its fawning gaze before Xu Zangyu had turned into one of noble arrogance, and its slender fox eyes exuded a sense of majesty.
But he had to pretend to be obedient in order to maintain Xu Zangyu's goodwill towards him.
Until a noise came from the window, the fox's slender eyes suddenly widened, and its rounded claws became sharp and fierce.
The boy by the window was being held down by another person, desperately struggling to breathe. A wine bottle rolled to the side, spilling its contents everywhere, and the boy was almost completely covered in the smell of wine.
Her face was red, her eyes were red, her hands, which were pushing her, were held down, and she resisted by sobbing.
Their bodies were almost pressed together, and the guy, who was drunk and acting recklessly, clearly thrust his waist forward.
"Don't move, let me hug you."
Xu Zangyu bit him in anger: "Is this what you call a test?"
Xue Wenxiang hissed in pain as blood seeped from his broken lips, which he licked into his mouth with his tongue. Yet, he still laughed obliviously, "You really bit hard. It hurts so much. Lick it for me."
"I shouldn't have bitten your mouth, I should have bitten off your tongue."
Xu Zangyu spoke coldly, his breathing still ragged, his tongue numb for a long time.
Xue Wenxiang was gnawing on things like a dog.
Perhaps having tasted the flavor, it wasn't angry at Xu Zangyu's scolding. It nuzzled against his neck, its head tucked in, and before it knew it, it had been sucked on the side of its neck.
