Chapter 259 Green Lotus
Liu Mubai's tribulation was already upon him outside, and he had no time to think about the little fox who had come with him.
If I can survive this tribulation, I can shed my snake identity. A snake that doesn't want to become a dragon is not a good snake.
Thunder rumbled outside, and because of the thunder, all the animals within a hundred miles fled, as animals are naturally aware of danger.
Xiao Jiu stayed in the cave to cultivate peacefully. Since she was already there, she might as well make the best of it. Judging from the sounds outside, that stinky snake wouldn't be gone in a day or two.
When Xiao Jiu woke up from her cultivation, she found an unfamiliar presence in her cave. Xiao Jiu immediately looked to the side warily. Qing Lian thought that the little fox would not wake up for several more days. He was prepared to take the little fox back to her cave if she woke up too late.
"Who are you?" Xiao Jiu's spiritual power had almost recovered, and she could now transform into human form. Xiao Jiu immediately transformed into human form, but for some reason, her ears and tail were not retracted.
"This little fox is quite fierce." Qinglian moved her fingers slightly, and Xiao Jiu found that she couldn't move at all. That proved that this person's cultivation was above hers. That's right, she didn't even notice him entering the cave, which shows that his cultivation was extremely profound.
“We have no grudges against each other. If you want this cave, I can leave.” Xiao Jiu was a man of principle who knew when to yield and when to stand firm. He knew he was no match for Xiao Jiu, and it would be unwise to fight him head-on.
"What's so interesting about the cave? I happen to be missing a fox fur coat. Little fox, your fur looks pretty good." Qinglian thought the little fox was quite cute and couldn't help but want to tease her.
Xiao Jiu's face paled upon hearing Qing Lian's words. He had gotten off to a bad start; his tail hadn't even grown yet, and now he'd been caught and was about to be skinned and made into a coat. There was probably no fox more miserable than him.
I don't know if my family will even notice if I die here. They must avenge me.
Seeing the changing expressions on the little fox's face, Qinglian knew that she must be thinking something. With a wave of her hand, Xiao Jiu turned into a fox again.
"It looks better this way." Qinglian hugged Xiao Jiu and stroked the little fox's fur. If Xiao Jiu had ever heard someone praise its original form like this, it would have been overjoyed.
But hearing this from him now, she really couldn't be happy. He couldn't control himself and seemed quite satisfied with his fur, making her worry that he might skin it off at any moment.
Xiao Jiu trembled slightly. No matter how fearless she was, she was still a little fox who had just come of age. Being threatened like this, with her life in the hands of a stranger, it was no wonder she was afraid.
A single, crystal-clear tear rolled down the corner of the little fox's eye and landed on Qinglian's hand, which was holding her. Qinglian lifted her up in front of her. "No way," she thought, "I was just teasing this little fox, and I made her cry?"
"Why are you being so delicate? I was just joking. It's just a fox fur coat. Do you think I'd need a little fox like you?"
Qinglian patted the little fox's head and took out a white fox fur coat from her space. Xiao Jiu was a fox, and she could sense from the fox fur coat what level of cultivation the skinned fox had in life.
Seeing this, Xiao Jiu became even more frightened. This fox fur's cultivation level was even higher than her father's, yet it had been turned into a fox fur by this person. Her cultivation level was not even enough to fill his teeth.
"This fox died of old age," Qinglian explained when he noticed the little fox trembling all over as if it were even more afraid of him when he took out the fox fur.
This fox was from the same era as me, but because it was a naturally born and nurtured spirit, I was able to escape its demise while it was asleep.
The owner of this fox fur was a friend I could talk to, but sadly, the fox didn't survive. Before it died, it specifically asked me to leave behind its favorite fur.
"What can I do to get rid of you?" Xiao Jiu was really scared. She wanted to go home, to see her father, her mother, and her brothers and sisters.
"I came here specifically to find you." Qinglian released the immobilization spell from the little fox. Even so, the little fox dared not move in his arms. If she made even the slightest movement and angered him, she might die without a burial place.
"I don't know you." Xiao Jiu raised her head and glanced at him. When he looked over, she immediately lowered her head. She had become a bit arrogant in the modern world. Because there was no spiritual power in the modern world, she was considered an invincible existence. Now that she had encountered a tough opponent, she immediately became as obedient as a cat.
"Green Lotus"
"what?"
My name is Qinglian.
"Oh, Qinglian, what brings you here?"
When Xiao Jiu heard his name, she thought carefully, but she still couldn't remember knowing someone as capable as him. Most of the people around her were similar to herself, or like her older brothers and sisters.
"I'll take you back." Qinglian realized he had teased the little fox a bit too much, and the fox wasn't as lively as before. How could he possibly hurt such a little fox? He had lived for so many years, and this little fox was just a junior to him.
"Go back where?" Seeing that he really didn't intend to do anything to her, Xiao Jiu became a little bolder. It has to be said that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. The little fox who was worried about her life just now, now that she could no longer sense danger, actually returned to her previous state.
"Go back to the world before you came here." Qinglian genuinely felt that the little fox felt really nice to touch, it was super comfortable to pet, and besides, the little fox didn't shed fur, so it was no different from petting a cat.
No wonder so many people in that world love keeping and petting cats; it's really addictive.
"Do you know me?" Xiao Jiu asked softly. She really didn't know such a person, but since he knew that she was not from this world and knew which world she came from, he must know her.
"Hmm, a little fox with two tails." Qinglian pinched the two fluffy tails behind Xiao Jiu. It was a genuine nine-tailed fox, but it only grew two tails after reaching adulthood. It was a bit of a weakling after all.
"I... I can't control this myself. If my tail could grow back so easily, I wouldn't have ended up there."
When Xiao Jiu heard this person mention her two tails, she was a little unhappy. It wasn't because she hadn't tried hard enough; it was just that no matter how hard she tried, they still didn't grow. She didn't want that to happen.
