“Xiaoxi.” Ye Junlin revealed a slight smile.
“Senior Bai!” The Great Mushroom King waved his hands happily.
“Bai Fairy, it’s good to see you,” Canglang Jun smiled while grooming his beard. After all, in this team, Bai Xiaoxi was the skilled cook, while his own skills were only good enough for some backup.
“Come over quickly, come over!” Bai Xiaoxi beckoned while walking deeper into the forest.
“Master, Senior Bai wants us to go!” The Great Mushroom King said eagerly.
“Let’s go take a look.”
Seeing his disciple safe and sound, Ye Junlin felt a weight lift from his heart.
The group entered the forest.
Around them, the vibrant spring scenery was picturesque.
“Come on! Hurry up!” Bai Xiaoxi kept running ahead, constantly waving to Ye Junlin and the others, looking very lively.
“Senior Bai, where are you taking us?” The Great Mushroom King asked with a hint of confusion.
Suddenly, a thick white mist rolled in, and Bai Xiaoxi’s figure flickered in and out of sight, her youthful voice chiming with a sense of urgency.
“Hurry up! Come this way!”
As they continued walking, the Great Mushroom King grew more curious and couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Bai, where exactly are you taking us?”
“Come quickly! The rats are waiting for you!” Oddly, Bai Xiaoxi didn’t answer directly and just urged them to follow her.
“Xiaoxi, stop!” Ye Junlin said sternly.
Upon hearing this,
Bai Xiaoxi showed no signs of stopping, which made Ye Junlin furrow his brow.
Although the aura around Bai Xiaoxi was unmistakably familiar, her unusual behavior felt off to him.
The group tried to push through the swirling white mist.
What greeted their eyes were steaming hot springs.
Jubilant laughter rang out, filled with joy.
In the hot springs, many naked girls from the Fox Tribe played in the water, their fox ears and long flowing hair cascading down. Their skin glowed like jade, and they had charming faces and enchanting eyes.
“W-What is this…” The Great Mushroom King was dumbfounded, never having seen anything like it.
“Bai Fairy is being too kind, treating us right upon meeting!” Canglang Jun swallowed hard, eyes wide, feeling a warm rush in his nose, almost about to bleed.
“Where’s Xiaoxi?” Ye Junlin forced himself to remain calm, squinting his eyes.
“Look out, there are men!”
The many fox girls in the hot springs didn’t feel shy at all; instead, their eyes sparkled as they leaped out of the water, rushing towards the three figures.
All sorts of spring scenes came into view, a feast for the eyes!
Who could withstand this?
At that moment, a crowd of graceful fox girls surrounded Ye Junlin and his companions, eagerly trying to embrace them.
“This old man is mine! Don’t you dare snatch him!”
“Little brother, sister wants to play a game with you~”
“So handsome! Come play with us!”
The atmosphere became increasingly intense.
Delicate, soft hands roamed, and Canglang Jun felt his body growing weak, almost succumbing to this gentle entanglement, “Ladies, you’re truly too enthusiastic, but unfortunately, I’m quite old…”
“Please, please don’t!” The Great Mushroom King dared not open his eyes, tightly shutting them while feeling the astonishing softness gripping his arms, involuntarily gasping in shock.
Ye Junlin managed to keep his composure, having faced the hellish level dungeons of Heavenly Daughter Country before. He could hold his ground against this throng of flirtatious fox girls.
Facing the increasingly bold fox girls, Ye Junlin coldly commanded:
“All of you, get lost!”
The fox girls, startled, quickly retreated, looking frightened.
At that moment, Bai Xiaoxi emerged from the crowd.
“Master, these are all friends of the rats. Could you please not be so fierce?”
This silver-haired little girl had tears welling in her big eyes as she reached for Ye Junlin’s hand, appearing pitiful.
Ye Junlin’s expression remained unchanged, his tone icy: “Are you Xiaoxi?”
Bai Xiaoxi froze in place, confusion flickering in her beautiful eyes. “Master, the rat is certainly Xiaoxi. Why do you ask?”
“I called for you to stop, and you didn’t listen. The real Xiaoxi wouldn’t act like this.”
As he spoke, Ye Junlin’s eyes flickered with golden light, blazing and divine.
Break Illusions Golden Eyes!
“Master, the rat really is Xiaoxi, truly…” Before Bai Xiaoxi could finish her sentence, a hand caught her by the neck and lifted her up mercilessly.
Ye Junlin’s golden eyes locked onto the silver-haired girl, his expression cold and deliberate as he said:
“You! Are! Not!”
“Master…” Bai Xiaoxi’s expression twisted in pain, glistening tears rolling down her cheeks, evoking sympathy.
“Ye, Senior Ye, is there a misunderstanding?” Canglang Jun said, startled.
“Senior Bai!” The Great Mushroom King panicked, feeling the aura was identical to that of the familiar Senior Bai, yet Master was adamantly denying it, leaving him anxious and powerless.
Ye Junlin took a deep breath and sneered, “Su Immortal Lord, it’s time for your little trick to end.”
As he spoke, he tightened his grip, and Bai Xiaoxi exploded into smoke, leaving only a single white fox hair floating down.
With a violent stomp of his right foot, a golden ripple spread like waves, and all the naked, graceful fox girls around disappeared with a collective scream.
Even the hot springs, big and small, vanished into thin air.
The mist dispersed, revealing the true scene.
They found themselves in a vibrant sea of cherry blossom trees, where the gentle breeze sent countless pink petals flying, filling the air with a captivating fragrance.
The scene was incredibly beautiful!
“Master!”
A familiar voice rang out.
From within the cherry blossom grove, Bai Xiaoxi joyfully ran over, her face beaming with innocence and joy.
“Senior Bai, so you were here!” The Great Mushroom King exclaimed happily.
“Hehe, I’m glad everything’s alright.” Canglang Jun wiped the blood that had dripped from his nose, wearing a kind smile.
Yet, Ye Junlin merely raised his hand expressionlessly, aiming at the oncoming Bai Xiaoxi, and squeezed his palm tight.
Bang~
Bai Xiaoxi exploded into a cloud of smoke, with a single snow-white, glimmering fox hair swirling in the air before finally floating down.
“Another fake…” The Great Mushroom King and Canglang Jun stood dumbfounded.
Ye Junlin’s golden pupils gleamed coldly, “Su Immortal Lord, no need to use the same trick twice; my patience has its limits.”
Little did he know, under the Break Illusions Golden Eyes, all deceptions were laid bare, including the so-called illusions.
With a rustle,
The rows of cherry blossom trees ahead parted, clearing a wide pathway.
At the end of the road sat a woman in palace attire, meditating under the cherry blossom tree. Silvery hair cascaded like a waterfall, with a pair of fluffy white fox ears, a standard oval face, a sharp nose, and lips that were vibrantly red.
She held a perfectly straight posture, with a delicate waist that could hardly be grasped, and an ample bosom, achieving a flawless and stunning figure from any angle.
Behind her swayed nine fox tails, like a peacock displaying its feathers, a visual shock.
Notably,
This person retained the delicate charm typical of the fox tribe while also exuding a powerful aura that seemed to rule over all.
She was the Qingqiu Empress, Su Yinghuo!
And also the Immortal Lord of the West Ze Immortal Domain!
