Chapter 85: Audacious Idea Of The Little Demoness
"Why are you so late today?" Lu Xun saw the little fox enter his room, but he didn't notice her current expression. He sat at the table and casually asked.
"Master just summoned me."
The little fox slowly made her way to the opposite side of Lu Xun. With a light leap, she hopped onto a wooden chair and extended her delicate little hand. Slowly opening her palm, she presented the small blue pill to Lu Xun and said softly, "Master asked me to give this to you."
Seeing the pill in the palm of the little fox's hand, Lu Xun's joy surged. He quickly took it from her and swallowed it in an instant. With the miraculous effect of this pill and the assistance of his strong Pure Yang body, the pain and soreness in his waist, which had been throbbing and uncomfortable, quickly recovered to its peak state.
In fact, Lu Xun was already beyond ordinary people. For others, if they were to endure several hours of continuous exertion, even an all-nighter followed by a final consolidation hour, they would have long met their demise. Even those renowned for their unparalleled strength would take at least half a month to recover from such intense torment. Even with the help of a miraculous blue pill, it would still take around a week.
"Tsk tsk."
"The effect of this little pill is incredibly potent. Do you know what kind of pill this is?" Lu Xun looked at the little fox before him and asked curiously, "Did your master personally refine it?"
The little fox shook her head and replied quietly, "I don't know what kind of pill this is either. Um... My master doesn't know alchemy; that skill is exclusive to Taoists. She... she relies on robbery, snatching pills from others. There used to be a very powerful Taoist rumored to be able to refine an elixir of immortality. My master went out in the night and stole all of that Taoist's pills."
Damn!
This demoness is truly unforgivable. It seems like I must intervene and bring peace to this world!
Lu Xun pursed his lips, just as he was about to speak, he noticed the worried expression on the little fox's face and asked in confusion, "Do you have something on your mind? Why do you look so downcast?"
"..."
"Nothing." The little fox puffed up her cheeks on both sides, a stubborn and willful look in her eyes. She murmured, "Start telling the story. Tell it properly to me. Don't skip any details. I'm not dumb, you know."
"Alright, alright."
Lu Xun waved his hand and began to tell the little fox the continuation of the story of Journey to the West.
The initially troubled little fox was quickly captivated by the exciting story. Especially during the thrilling moments, her two furry tails behind her swayed uncontrollably, revealing themselves unintentionally. From the perspective of wagging her tails, the little fox was thoroughly enjoying herself.
After a while, the joyous time of today came to an end. Lu Xun picked up his teacup, took a small sip, cleared his throat briefly, softly saying, "Alright. Today's story comes to an end. Tomorrow is the grand finale. After I finish the grand finale, I'll tell you a new story. Have you heard of the Investiture of the Gods?"
At first, when the little fox heard that Journey to the West would end tomorrow, she felt a bit reluctant to let go. But when Lu Xun mentioned a new story, her curiosity exploded, and she shook her head repeatedly, "No, I haven't heard. Is the Investiture of the Gods interesting? Is it like Journey to the West?"
"Um..."
"They belong to different genres, each with its own merits." Lu Xun smiled gently and said: "Of course, there are no bad books, only people who don't tell stories well. Don't worry, I will definitely make sure you're captivated."
The little fox wore a satisfied smile. Then her lively eyes stared at Lu Xun, and she asked in confusion, "Why do you know so much?"
"Guess." Lu Xun smiled faintly and didn't answer the little fox's question.
"Hmph!" The little fox raised her adorable head, then straightened her unremarkable body. She said in a slightly annoyed tone, "If you won't tell, then don't, and you're making me guess. I don't want to guess. It doesn't benefit me anyway. Just tell me stories every day. I won't bother with the rest."
As her words fell, the little fox glanced at him quietly and said in a sweet voice, "And also, don't forget what you promised me. Once sister Xuan Yin gets through these seven days, you promised to take me down the mountain to play."
"Rest assured."
"I won't forget." Lu Xun pursed his lips and said leisurely, "But there's something that really angers me. If you don't give me an explanation about it, I'm afraid... I won't take you down the mountain to play."
The fur on the two tails of the little fox instantly bristled. She looked at him in bewilderment until their eyes met. Suddenly, she lowered her head in embarrassment, her delicate little hand tugging at her skirt as she mumbled, "I... I was wrong."
Lu Xun's gentleness subsided as he asked seriously, "What did you do wrong?"
"Playing both sides!" The little fox rolled her eyes and silently left the room.
...
Night fell.
The little demoness sat by the cliffside in a simple sleeping gown, gazing quietly at the starry sky above her head. At this moment, she wasn't affected by her Yin surge, and her mind was very clear. A gentle breeze brushed against her, ruffling her black hair.
"Wife?"
"Why are you sitting here?"
The voice of her husband behind her interrupted Xuan Yin's thoughts. She slowly turned her head to look at Lu Xun approaching, her charming and tender appearance revealing a trace of faint happiness. She murmured softly, "Sitting indoors all the time feels stuffy."
Saying this, she lightly patted the spot beside her,"Sit here."
"It's too dangerous."
"You know I have a fear of heights." Lu Xun shook his head and said softly, "My wife, let's go back inside."
"With me by your side, how could you fall?" The little demoness urged with a hint of annoyance, "Hurry up and come over here!"
In the end, Lu Xun obediently sat beside her. At the same time, the little demoness eagerly nestled into his embrace, greedily sniffing his strong masculine scent, feeling the security brought by his robust body. A strong impulse gradually arose within her.
"Dear husband."
"Xuan Yin will never leave you, and you... you should never leave Xuan Yin," the little demoness lay in his arms, lightly caressing his sturdy chest, her eyes half-lidded and dreamy. She continued, "And you can't have any other women, only me as your wife."
"Yes, yes."
"You've said that before." Lu Xun held her supple waist and said gently.
"I'm afraid you'll forget."
The little demoness pursed her lips, lifted her head to kiss his cheek, and then moved to his ear. She whispered, "Last night, I had a dream. I dreamt that me, the little fox, and Master were all serving you together. Strangely, I didn't feel jealous. Instead... I felt very happy."
Oh...?!
Lu Xun's heart trembled, and he smiled, "A family should be harmonious."
"Hmph!"
"Nice try!"
The little demoness lightly bit his ear, scolding, "Having me is enough for you."
As they spoke, Xuan Yin's consciousness gradually started to blur, her rationality about to be consumed completely.
"Lu Xun... I can't anymore." Xuan Yin's breath was ragged. She spoke hesitantly, "Husband... I have a daring idea."
Following that, the uncontrollable little demoness leaned close to Lu Xun's ear, mumbling something softly, her charming face growing even more flushed.
"What?"
"Back to the courtyard? To the rooftop?" Lu Xun stared at her in disbelief.
