• Xiao Xian sensed the world's exposed laws and learned that Hong Xuejiao and Prince Cheng's Heir were hunting nearby with mastiffs.
• Hong Yi feared the hunters would discover the foxes he was teaching, so he went outside to confront them despite his lack of strength.
• The mastiffs suddenly cowered, and Prince Cheng's Heir spotted a shadow ahead that seemed to be a person.
