Chapter 1109

I don't know what this human is going to do next. Do your clan really plan to become enemies of humanity?

Because they had shared memories, Lin Cheng could be considered half a clan insider of the informed Blue Fox. He was also curious—what kind of avant-garde thinking could make another pink fox willingly let the entire Blue Fox clan become humanity's battle pets.

Speaking of this, the pink fox froze for a moment, then stopped grooming her fur and let out a quiet sigh.

"That is my sister. She doesn't truly understand humans, nor does she grasp love and affection. She only wants the Blue Fox clan to survive. I know her intention was good, but she was also deceived by humans."

"Humans only know that we magical beasts are terrifying, but we likewise know that the human heart can sometimes be even more terrifying than us! I don't blame her—she is my sister. I only hope she can truly see humans clearly, and find a true place of dwelling for the Blue Fox."

"That's right, I admit human hearts are indeed more complicated than you magical beasts—probably because there are too many things to care about." Lin Cheng spread his hands, shrugged, and shook his head helplessly.

"This I can actually help you with." Lin Cheng also got straight to the point and began to ask. "Help if I can, and if I can't, there's nothing to be done. You're not a greedy human—you're the same as everyone else. What you want is me, right?" The pink fox sat, her wise fox eyes fixed straight on Lin Cheng, as if she had already seen through his heart.

"Putting it that way is very direct. That's right, what I want is indeed you." Lin Cheng simply nodded and admitted it.

"You don't displease me. I can agree to you, on the premise that you help my sister see the true face of humans and help our Blue Fox clan find a suitable place of dwelling."

"Sure. How do you want to do it?" Lin Cheng nodded in agreement.

Being able to be so straightforward was really wonderful.

"First we have to find my sister. I don't know where she went. Do you know?"

That, I really might know.

The pink fox excitedly stood up again in one motion. Now that her injuries had healed, she felt for a moment that she was good to go again.

"Recently, Lan City is holding a War Pet Selection Competition. It opens today. If your fox sister wants the Blue Fox to become famous and sell like crazy, she should go enter this competition. If we go to this War Pet Selection Competition, we should be able to find her."

What are we waiting for, let's set out right away!

The pink fox leaped from the table onto Lin Cheng's shoulder in one little bound!

In such a hurry?

Lin Cheng glanced at the pink fox on his right shoulder—he hadn't expected this spirit to be so impetuous.

"Fine, then let's go."

Carrying a pink fox on his shoulder as he went out—this was Lin Cheng's first time, an utterly novel experience. Going downstairs, he shocked the guests who were dining and Miss Qianhui and General Ji Xia who were waiting for Lin Cheng; their gazes all fixed dumbly on the pink fox lying on Lin Cheng's shoulder.

"By the way, what's your name?"

Once Lin Cheng had decided something, he would not allow the pink fox to disobey.

So cute!

Miss Qianhui's exclamation rang out, and the pink fox also raised her head—even a magical beast likes being praised.

The pink fox's gaze shot angrily toward Qianhui, and she even bristled upright. If they weren't in front of outsiders right now, she would have started cursing right away.

This is a little fox, Qianhui—at least look properly. Lin Cheng corrected Qianhui's perception, speechless.

A fox and a cat are that different—there's something wrong with your eyes!

Oh oh, it's a fox. I thought it was a kitty. After Lin Cheng's reminder, Qianhui finally reacted. After a careful look, she realized it really was quite different from her own little blue. Too bad she couldn't carry her little blue on her shoulder like Lin Cheng could—an indescribable envy, that is, envy.......

Lin Cheng, how did you tame this little kitty? Teach me!

Uh!

Lin Cheng covered his face. Seeing the situation, he knew he couldn't explain it clearly to Qianhui, so he could only give a brief description.

"Qianhui, taming a magical beast mainly requires perseverance. First feed it a little, then talk to it all day. After enough time, it'll get familiar with you."

Qianhui now seemed as if a whole new world had opened up. In her common sense, she had always thought magical beasts didn't need to eat.

Or rather, Qianhui's identity as a noble Young Lady meant she had never been exposed to the daily life of magical beasts. Even when there were domesticated magical beasts, she didn't need to feed them herself—leaving it to the servants was enough.

Lin Cheng had no choice but to shift the topic to General Ji Xia beside them, or else he felt Qianhui's foolishness might just kill him.

"Ji Xia, you'd better not go. Rest well at the inn today."

There was meaning behind his words. The deliberate wink made General Ji Xia catch on immediately, and she nodded.

"Alright, go and come back quickly."

This much General Ji Xia was still clear about.

After last night's incident, whether she had been exposed or not, she should first lay low until the storm passed. It was just right to properly digest the knowledge and skills from her inheritance at the inn.

"Um... Lin Cheng, I need a greatsword and two short swords."

Seeing that Lin Cheng and the others were about to set out, General Ji Xia suddenly brought it up again, a little embarrassed.

"Sure, I'll forge them for you when I get back." Lin Cheng glanced back at General Ji Xia, then quickly came down.

Okay!

General Ji Xia's heart settled. Once she had a suitable weapon, she should be able to defeat that one-eyed mercenary.

It's just that before setting out, the legion commander had instructed her to protect Lin Cheng, yet now it had become Lin Cheng protecting and helping her. This made her feel truly uneasy at heart.
