Chapter 186: The Dragon Fox That Became Useless (1/2)

“When Sister Meng returns home, she will be happy. Brother, how about Xiang Xiang? I want to play with Xiang Xiang.”

Ye Wuchen used his thoughts to wake the tiny fox. A white light floated out from his body, curled up with its very long tail dragging like a lump of snow, it dropped onto Ning Xue’s hand while she was in Ye Wuchen’s arms. Ning Xue was so delighted that she hugged it tight, fascinated as she breathed in the fragrance in its body while gently stroking it.

In the roadside bushes, a creature more than one meter in height and a pointed long mouth like a red fox ran out to block their way and seemed poised to attack. Along their journey, they had encountered quite a lot of enchanted beasts that blocked their way, but all of them were eliminated by Tong Xin like she was slicing of tofu. Ye Wuchen swept his eyes around to discovered that it was a third level fire-spitting fox. He did not let Tong Xin dispose of it because he wanted to observe the dragon fox’s power. He pointed at the fire-spitting fox and commanded, “Xiang Xiang, make it vanish, let it know who is the strongest fox around here.”

Receiving the master’s command, Xiang Xiang jumped from Ning Xue’s arms and dragged its long tail as it ran towards the fire-spitting fox. As if mesmerized by Xiang Xiang’s physical appearance which seemed to be very similar, the fire-splitting fox did not dodge, so they crashed into each other...

Then, something shocking happened…

Being bumped on the head, the fire-spitting fox reared back, but Xiang Xiang bounced off from the recoil and fell with four legs facing the sky. With great difficulty, it got up, turned around, and broke into a run. The fire-spitting fox was angered because of the collision and opened its mouth to spit out a fist sized fireball at Xiang Xiang. Sensing the danger, Xiang Xiang ran away in a great rush and evaded with much hardship. It had rolled on the ground and was now covered in mud. It got up again and scampered off wildly towards Ning Xue’s arms in an instant. It curled up and did not wish to expose its head again.

The fire-spitting fox ran after Xiang Xiang and threw itself towards Ye Wuchen, so Tong Xing moved. She kicked a small rock and it mercilessly flew towards the fire-spitting fox and it pierced through its body. It stumbled and fell to the ground, breathless.

Ye Wuchen clutched at Xiang Xiang’s, tail lifting it up and observed its entire body. Was this truly the tiny fox that had beaten Tong Xin before?

Being lifted up, the tiny fox scrabbled its limbs as it struggled to break free. Ning Xue immediately held its body up, feeling sorry for it, she said, “Brother, don’t grab its tail, you’re hurting it.”

Ye Wuchen looked doubtfully at the tiny fox once again, then let go of it. The entire body of the tiny fox illuminated with a white light as it transformed into a tiny girl. Leaning firmly against Ning Xue, its eyes gleamed with tears as it looked at Ye Wuchen.

“Brother, are you wondering why Xiang Xiang is not that powerful anymore?” Ning Xue saw him in thought and asked.

Ye Wuchen nodded, he had not felt any fluctuation in Xiang Xiang’s power. He had originally thought that it might have been because Xiang Xiang was too powerful, so his power was unable to detect it, though that did not seem to be the case.

“Its power has been depleted, right?” Ye Wuchen said. Back then, its power had fell and just as suddenly, it dramatically increased to more than ten times. That seemed to be a method of overdrawing from its potential power.

“En, That’s right. Xiang Xiang said that in order to defeat Sister Tong Xin that day, she had released all of her energy. With nothing left, if she didn’t recognize brother as her master, she would have died.” Ning Xue replied on behalf of Little Xiang Xiang. The tiny girl in her hand nodded. With a clear and loud squeak, the two eyes flickered in fear that master would tease her again.

Dragon Fox: Level one enchanted beast.

This was the information that Ye Wuchen got when he used his “Spiritual Eyes.” He became speechless.

Slowly holding up the tiny girl, Ye Wuchen smiled and said, “It was your master’s fault, don’t be angry anymore, Xiang Xiang.”

“Squeak, squeak…”

“......”

A Hidden Territory, Northern Empire Clan.

“My Meng-er. You have finally returned. I worried so much about you these past few days.” After permitting Yan Zhimeng to approach Ye Wuchen, Yan Ximing had left Tian Long City soon after to return to the Northern Empire Clan. But Yan Zhimeng’s return was much later than what he had expected.

Yan Zhimeng had already been quite accustomed to the way Yan Ximing intimately called her before, but this time, her heart gave off an uncomfortable feeling. She used her usual cold tone which he was already familiar with, and said, “Ye Wuchen wasn’t that easy to handle, so I’ve taken more time.”

At mentioning Ye Wuchen’s name, in her heart, many emotions churned; there was sadness, pain, wondering, and also indistinct helplessness.

Yan Ximing nodded his head, “Indeed, based on what he had done in the Tian Long City, he is a person who thinks deeply. Indeed, he shouldn’t be that easy to handle. And I let you go there all alone, do you know why?”

Yan Zhimeng coldly shook her head.
