Chapter 116: Wife Comes Out Of Seclusion

"Alright, alright."

"Stop splashing water."

Immortal Miao Feng stood by the bathtub, carefully wiping the little fox's back. Although she complained, her face was full of endless affection. She softly asked, "Where did you and Lu Xun go to play today?"

"During the day, we were eating and drinking. In the evening, we went to the lantern festival, watched plays and acrobatics," the little fox stood in the bathtub, revealing half of her body. She said with a smile, "These past few days have been so much fun."

"Having fun is one thing, but don't forget to continue your cultivation when we return," Immortal Miao Feng said lightly. "You little lady, always indulging in play."

The little fox pouted and helplessly replied, "I know, I will focus on my cultivation, but don't expect too much from me, Master. I'm probably just like this. It might be better to devote your time and energy to sister."

Immortal Miao Feng immediately guessed what was on her mind and said unkindly, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. While I can make concessions, trying to make me completely give up on your cultivation is out of the question, even if I die."

"What?!"

"Master, why are you talking like that?" The little fox hurriedly turned her head, saying anxiously, "You won't die!"

"Who said I won't?"

"I will be driven crazy to death by you!" Immortal Miao Feng glared at the little fox, angrily saying, "All you do is stir up trouble for me and make me worry. Especially the first time you secretly left the mountain. I still feel a bit scared when I think back to it."

The little fox awkwardly opened her mouth, but the words in her heart lingered for a long time and she couldn't say them. She lowered her head silently, squeaking, "That time... That time..."

"Alright."

"Anyway, I'll keep a close eye on you to ensure you cultivate diligently. Don't be lazy when the time comes," Immortal Miao Feng said calmly.

"Sigh!"

The little fox's face was full of frustration, and her cherry-like lips pouted high. She mumbled softly, "A few days ago, you told me that it didn't matter whether I cultivated or not, as long as you were here. Now you're changing your mind."

Hearing this, a blush spread across Immortal Miao Feng's cheeks on both sides. In her heart, she secretly cursed; It's not that I'm going back on my word, it's just that I don't want you to stumble upon the situation between me and Lu Xun. I can only make you go to bed early every night in the name of cultivation.

"Cough!"

"Don't talk nonsense. Master is doing this for your own good," Immortal Miao Feng cleared her throat twice and said with a serious tone, "As long as you reach the innate realm, Master will allow you to descend the mountain alone."

However, the little fox was not at all happy. Currently, she was only in the middle heaven realm. To break through the innate realm her master mentioned would take who knows how long, possibly hundreds of years if luck wasn't on her side. Hundreds of years without leaving the mountain would be suffocating.

After the little fox finished bathing, Immortal Miao Feng waved her hand, and her wet body instantly dried. She put on a petite loincloth and shorts, and her delicate little butt wiggled as she ran into the bedroom, quickly diving into the blanket.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

Gradually, it got late into the night. The little fox snuggled in her Master's arms, feeling sleepless. The thought of going back home at dawn made her feel particularly melancholic.

"Aren't you sleeping yet?" Immortal Miao Feng gently rubbed the little fox's head and asked softly.

"I can't sleep a bit," the little fox mumbled, "Master, I haven't played enough."

After two hours, they finally returned to the courtyard halfway up the mountain. Immortal Miao Feng put the little fox down on the ground and then gently pushed Lu Xun with her hip, who was behind her. She immediately waved her hand, causing the phantom flying sword to disappear.

Glaring at him with faint anger and shame on her face, she simply turned and left without looking back.

"Huh?"

"Where's Master?" The little fox removed the blindfold and found that her Master was gone. She looked at Lu Xun in askance.

"She left. Went back to her room."

Hearing this, the little fox instantly clung to Lu Xun like a koala.

"Hehehe. I can finally monopolize you," the little fox said happily. She wrapped her slender arms tightly around his neck and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"You little troublemaker." Lu Xun held the little fox in a princess carry.

Her lively eyes were filled with affection as she gazed at him, somewhat melancholy. She said, "Master wants me to cultivate diligently. I won't be able to come and listen to stories every afternoon from now on."

"Don't worry," Lu Xun reassured her. "I'll talk to your Master and make sure you have an hour every afternoon to listen to the stories."

"Really?" The little fox asked excitedly. Then, she added a condition seriously, "During that hour, only I can be there. Sister Xuan Yin can't."

"Alright, alright," Lu Xun hastily agreed. "During that hour, I'll only accompany you."

They had just arrived home, and she was already jealous. Lu Xun was feeling a bit pained and helpless at the moment.

"Hehehe," the little fox laughed contentedly. She hugged Lu Xun's neck tightly and couldn't help but kiss his cheek again, mumbling, "In the evening, when my sister comes to your room to study, I want to come too. As for the reason, I've already figured it out – I'll be sister's study partner."

Study partner? Isn't it clearly being a third wheel?

Lu Xun carefully examined the little fox in his arms and asked without much patience, "Are you really coming as a study partner, or are you using that as an excuse to keep an eye on me your sister?"

"I... I..." The little fox blushed, her face red as she replied, "I'm afraid you'll be led astray by my sister."

"Thank you for caring about me so much," Lu Xun said, feeling both amused and helpless.

Afterward, the little fox snuggled in Lu Xun's arms for a while before reluctantly returning to her own room, leaving him sitting quietly in the hall, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, in a secret cave on the back mountain:

A graceful woman emerged, her skin as white as snow, her eyes as clear as water. Her curvaceous figure exuded a cold air, but within that icy demeanor was a seductive charm that could captivate souls.

"I didn't expect to come out of seclusion this early," the little demoness Xuan Yin stood at the cave entrance, her expression filled with longing.

"I wonder..."

"Has my beloved missed me?"
