Chapter 144

A touch of worldly desire, stirred just in time.

Zi Yu's heart skipped a beat. She had always prided herself on her beauty, but in front of this plum blossom fairy, she felt ashamed of herself.

Such beauty is a pity to fall on a little plum blossom fairy.

She thought to herself.

Moreover, this demon possesses a unique aura; he stands in the crowd as if veiled, concealing his presence, and one would not notice him at all unless one specifically looks for him.

Could it have been done intentionally?

As she pondered, she met Bai Fu's gaze. His eyes were cold and unwavering, like a winter snowstorm, sending a chill down her spine. For some reason, she felt a sense of apprehension towards this little plum blossom demon.

Fufeng Yuan smiled honestly, "We also met each other while fleeing. We thought we would like each other so we went together. The situation was too chaotic at that time, so we got separated from our tribe."

Zi Yu said, "I see."

She wasn't there when the chaos erupted at Demon Moon Mountain, and she heard that even the Fox King was seriously injured; the situation might be even more chaotic than she imagined.

"After we escaped to this area, we heard that the demon rebellion had been quelled, and we were preparing to return to the Demon King City." Qiaoqiao blinked. "Sister Fox, are you traveling with us? Would you like to join us?"

Zi Yu had actually been secretly watching Qiaoqiao for quite some time.

It wasn't just because Qiaoqiao used her intelligence to completely outmaneuver her four foolish apprentices, displaying a cleverness that was truly admirable, but also because of her overwhelmingly adorable appearance.

Hidden in her jet-black hair are a pair of pointed ears, fluffy and a beautiful black color, with a tuft of white hair at the tip. When she speaks, the pointed ears twitch back and forth, making her incredibly cute.

This is a little cat demon.

It is said that among the cat demons, the hair at the tips of their ears is called "smart hair," and the longer the smart hair, the more skilled the cat demon is as a hunter.

Although she had never seen Qiaoqiao's true form, she could guess that it was probably a black and white kitten with black fur and snow-white paws. It looked harmless, but was actually clever, cunning, and wicked.

As Fox Clan, she absolutely loved this kind of personality.

Not to mention that Qiaoqiao is so cute, she really can't control herself and is itching to pinch the tips of those twirling cat ears.

Just as I reached out my hand, a cold wind swept over me.

Mei Yao stood in front of Qiaoqiao, giving her a brief, indifferent glance.

The little cat demon seemed to trust him completely, peeking out from beside him and gazing at her with her clear almond-shaped eyes. "Sister Fox, shall we go together?"

As if bewitched, the fox demon nodded.

"Master, I want to go too! Waaah!"

Not wanting to be left out, Tu San eagerly spoke up.

I cried so hard just now that I can barely speak.

The group looked at Tu San, whose face was a mess of snot and tears, and were somewhat puzzled—what did the fox demon see in him? Why did she value him the most among the five disciples?

"That's because..." Zi Yu's forehead creased with three black lines, "... can you even tell the five of them apart?"

They all shook their heads.

Not to mention them, even the rabbit demons themselves couldn't tell the difference.

"Tu San is different from them."

The group stared at Tu San, who was huddled by the rock, but couldn't see anything different about him. All the rabbit demons had the same long ears and short tails, and looked delicate and weak.

Is he good at whimpering, like a whimpering rabbit?

Zi Yu was silent for a moment, then said, "Tu San, stand up."

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Tu San slowly stood up.

Everyone looked up in unison, the same thought flashing through their minds: Wow, that's amazing!

He had been lying curled up on his side, and they hadn't noticed how tall this rabbit was! At a glance, it must have been at least two meters tall!

The two-meter-tall giant rabbit raised its arms, its muscles bulging high, tearing its clothes with a loud thud. Upon closer inspection, its physique was much more robust than the other four rabbit demons, with bulging muscles and a full chest.

Everyone stared in disbelief. With that physique and build, couldn't he take down a baby rabbit with a single punch?

No wonder Zi Yu treated him differently; it turned out that this rabbit was the only one out of the five that she could tell the difference. What a straightforward reason!

The two-meter-tall Tu San looked down at the crowd, somewhat embarrassed, "I didn't mean to grow this tall, sob."

Zi Yu said, "The Fox King has returned to the Demon Realm, and I heard he brought a woman back with him. I'm going to the royal city anyway, so why don't you come with me?"

"Good!"

Qiaoqiao raised an eyebrow. "The Fox King brought back a woman?"

"I heard that woman is Human Race cultivator," Zi Yu said. "The Fox King intends to make her his queen, and this has caused quite a stir in the royal city."

The group exchanged glances; it seemed the woman was most likely their second senior sister.

Unexpectedly, the Fox King acted so quickly, already bringing Second Senior Sister back to the royal city.

We have to hurry and rescue them--

Zi Yu cast a suspicious glance at her.

"Let's go to the royal city to see the excitement!"

"Then let's go."

"None of us have yet met the Fox King," Fu Fengyuan. "If we have the chance, we'd really like to meet him."

"The Fox King..." Zi Yu's expression became meaningful, "He is highly revered by all demons in the Demon Realm. He inherited his mother's purple fox bloodline and is the youngest nine-tailed purple fox in the Demon Realm."

[Ha ha!]

The junior sister's sudden laughter startled the two of them.

[Haha, the Fox King has three tails that are glued on!]

[Even though he's already 500 years old, he's still a baby who cries to sleep with his mother at night!]

Everyone:...

Isn't this a bit too outrageous?

[The Fox King is nothing compared to his parents, the current Old Demon King and Queen, who are both terrible people!]

[They've got their eyes on the Xiao Household's wealth and want to control Second Senior Sister...]
