Did Sang Ying Send You?

"Why should I believe you? I heard everything. You're a disciple from that immortal mountain, and you're trapped here. What can you do to help us? Besides, we have food and drink now, and life is so much better than before. There's no need for us to take that risk." The little girl's voice was crisp and sweet, still a bit childish.

However, her words already carried the composure and calculation expected of an adult.

But despite her blunt words, Sang Ying didn't find them offensive. "You're right. I'm trapped in this situation and can't even save myself, which is why I want your help. But at the same time, do you really like your current life, or are you really willing to let your loved ones be foxes for the rest of their lives?"

Sang Ying was very blunt, and her words made the red fox glare at her.

"What do you know?" The red fox's voice had become wary.

Sang Ying shook her head. "I don't know anything. I just saw the resentment in your heart. When I first came to feed you, you refused to eat from my hand and only ate what fell on the ground. Even after I became more familiar with you, you still refused to eat the food I offered you. Even when the two little foxes wanted to eat, you wouldn't allow it."

"So I'm guessing you don't want to be trapped in this fox body and want to regain human form. I can help you with that."

Her confident tone even made the red fox feel bewitched.

Sang Ying wasn't lying. When Demon Race voluntarily degenerate, they are actually accumulating all their Demon Power for other purposes. Not long after degeneration, they might still retain their demonic consciousness. But as the degeneration continues, their consciousness will gradually weaken, eventually turning them into completely clueless little foxes.

This was clearly something no Demon Race could accept, but compared to death, they preferred to continue living in ignorance.

Now that someone has told them they can transform back into Demon Race and even get a safe place to live, even a clever demon like the red fox can't help but be tempted.

But the red fox suppressed the longing in her eyes and asked first, "What do you want me to do for you?"

Sang Ying's voice was somewhat cold, but firm. "It's simple. I will take you away from the City Lord's Mansion in a few days. At that time, all you need to do is send out a message for me..."

The red fox's round eyes flashed with tiny lights, and then it nodded towards Sang Ying.

In the end, she still believed Sang Ying.

Time flew by, and as the red fox waited anxiously, they finally got the perfect opportunity to have Fusheng take Sang Ying out.

"This city has been corrupted by Demonic Qi, and no mortals or cultivators stay here anymore. But the scenery on the outskirts of the city is still quite nice. Would you like to come with me for a stroll?" Fusheng clenched his fist and boldly asked this question.

Sang Ying was taken aback, looking somewhat surprised. "Why did Master suddenly decide to take me out?"

Hearing her address, Fusheng couldn't hide his joy. "I was just worried you'd get bored staying in the yard all the time."

This was of course not true. He learned from the two guards that Sang Ying had asked if there were any fun or interesting places in the city, and seemed to want to go out and explore, which is why he remembered this.

After all, he knew that he had pushed Sang Ying too hard at the beginning and had kept her locked up for a while, so she probably wanted to go out and get some fresh air.

Sure enough, after hearing his words, Sang Ying cautiously asked, "Master, can I really go out for a walk with you?"

Fusheng felt pity for her timidity at this moment, but he was also pleased with Sang Ying's words, "Follow you." This meant that she was willing to go out with him, which made Fusheng very happy.

"Of course you can. Once I've completely subdued the Twin Orchid Realm, there won't be any place in the world you can't go," Fusheng affirmed.

Sang Ying pursed her lips. "Master, may I bring a little fox with me? I've never raised a pet like this before. The bigger fox has been very affectionate towards me lately, so I'd like to bring it along."

This was just a small request, and Fusheng had no reason to refuse.

He not only agreed, but also wanted to take all the foxes with him.

But in the end, Sang Ying persuaded him, "Let's forget it, Master. The other foxes are still very young and not very brave. They'll huddle together and hide at the slightest disturbance. The big one is much more interesting."

Since she said that, Fusheng gave up the idea.

The Demon Lord's outings are naturally not ordinary; even a simple outing should have some pomp and circumstance.

However, Fusheng did not want others to disturb his and his disciple's outing, and the situation between them and the Flowing Light Sword Sect had become increasingly severe in recent days, so they did not make much of a fuss. They simply went out for a stroll quietly.

Although they weren't putting on a show, the Devil Race still gathered together and discussed it at length when they heard that their usually aloof and fierce Demon Lord was actually putting aside all his trivial matters to accompany his disciple out for fun.

Having witnessed firsthand Fan Nanjun's madness in prioritizing beauty over power, the female demon general immediately sensed something ominous.

She didn't want their Demon Lord to be someone who would disregard the greater good for a beautiful woman; the previous Fan Nanjun had already made them suffer enough. She hoped that the Fusheng wouldn't be a second Fan Nanjun!

Regardless of how the Devil Race viewed the trip, Fusheng still took Sang Ying out on that day, and naturally, the big red fox accompanied them.

After they left the city lord's mansion, which had imprisoned Sang Ying for many days, she looked down and met the beautiful eyes of the red fox.

Noticing her dazed Fusheng, Fusheng, who was walking ahead, called out to her, "Xiao Yao, come quick. We should head up the mountain."

Sang Ying responded and obediently carried the fox towards him. However, both she and the fox knew very well that they hadn't come out this time to go hiking with Fusheng.

Unbeknownst to anyone, that very night, a beautiful red fox secretly slipped away through a hidden path, overcoming numerous obstacles, and ran to the immortal mountain of the Flowing Light Sword Sect.

Unfortunately, neither Sang Ying nor she had anticipated the presence of a protective formation on the mountain. The red fox, trapped outside the formation, was frantically scratching the ground when a figure suddenly appeared before her.

Under the moonlight, the man was tall and slender, with long, dark hair that hung down, giving him a somewhat elegant appearance.

The red fox lowered its body and bared its sharp teeth as it looked at the person in front of it. Just as it was about to let out a few warning cries, it heard the person in front of it say, "Were you sent by Sang Ying?"

The red fox was stunned, but Jiang Zhuoxue reached out and grabbed her by the back of the neck.
