The boat moved forward, quickly overtaking Jiang Hao's pleasure craft as it headed toward Jinhua Prefecture. Hu Feng sat in the cabin, his eyes narrowed and his face cold.
"Hu Merchant, you pride yourself on being a red fox from Qingqiu and look down on my origins. Hmph. Today, I will take Hu Xinyue and seize a share of your family fortune. As for you, Hu Merchant, and the calamity facing Hu Family Manor—you will never escape it today!"
This handsome young man was Hu Feng, a fox who had cultivated into a demon. After accidentally gaining intelligence, he had relied on caution, schemes, and calculation to survive every minor hundred-year tribulation and major five-hundred-year tribulation. He now possessed six hundred years of cultivation.
The fox clan also had distinctions of birth. Some came from the Tushan Clan, others from Qingqiu, and so on. Hu Merchant's family came from Qingqiu, which itself was divided into White Foxes, red foxes, Spirit Foxes, and more. Their bloodlines differed, but in short, they all came from renowned lineages with inheritances and noble standing.
Hu Feng, however, had no such background. He was a wild fox, also known as a Mutt Fox.
Hu Merchant often bought all kinds of treasures. Once, Hu Feng had met him while selling treasures. After learning his identity, Hu Feng deliberately befriended him. Later, when he visited the Hu family, he saw Hu Xinyue.
The moment Hu Feng saw Hu Xinyue, her beauty left him utterly infatuated and unable to free himself.
From then on, Hu Feng became even more attentive in cultivating his friendship with Hu Merchant. He searched everywhere for treasures, and whenever he found one, he would bring it to the Hu family to sell to Old Fox, all for a chance to see Hu Xinyue
