Chapter 49: Bold Fox Spirit

In an instant, rolling black mist emerged around Heizi, enveloping it, with Runes appearing within from time to time, reflecting a light like black gemstones.

Not knowing how long it would take for it to rebuild its cultivation, Mengchen sat cross-legged quietly to the side, keeping watch.

At the same time, he was also meditating and evolving what he had learned and realized in the past within his mind.

Time flew by, and another three days passed; Heizi remained immersed, constantly evolving and reshaping its past.

To the side, Mengchen would often quietly check on it, its aura faintly growing stronger.

During these three days, although the progress was slow, Mengchen believed that as long as Heizi persisted along this path, its future achievements would surely be limitless.

After all, in addition to this acquired effort, it also possessed a very powerful bloodline force; the Ten Fiends were inherently representatives of transcendent existence, and their descendants naturally possessed the potential to become or surpass them.

Just like that, amidst the boring wait, as Mengchen finished his evolution and meditation, he began to feel restless.

The surroundings were silent, save for the Yin-Yang Dragon Whisker Tree that stood eternal and shone with brilliant light forever.

This long wait lasted for another three days.

During these three days, Heizi woke up once; it ate nearly ten Yin-Yang Dragon Whisker Fruits, and after its body was filled with divine essence, it sank back into cultivation.

The dull and tedious long wait continued once more, leaving Mengchen with nothing to do, but he could not delay or disturb Heizi's opportunity for cultivation!

Therefore, he had no choice but to jump onto a higher tree branch to take a nap.

Under the illumination of the brilliant light, this place appeared quiet and peaceful; it was indeed a good place to take a nap.

Another nearly seven days passed...

Heizi cultivated while wrapped in black mist.

Mengchen, meanwhile, endured and continued to nap.

At this very moment, a pink-white figure, like a bolt of lightning, suddenly dashed over from several kilometers away.

Mengchen opened his eyes abruptly; although he was napping, he still kept watch over every movement in the surroundings at all times.

Therefore, upon making this discovery, he woke up immediately.

That pink figure headed straight for Heizi.

Mengchen focused his mind, instantly activating the Supreme Bone Rune in his head, and brilliant golden light scattered from his eyes in an instant.

At this moment, he clearly saw that the pink figure dashing over looked like a human girl, but behind her grew nine fluffy, snow-white fox tails, crystalline and translucent, shimmering with luster.

So it was a little Fox Spirit!

After Mengchen took a glance, he understood.

Her speed was incredibly fast, and one hand was already stretched out long.

"So the target is the Yin-Yang Dragon Whisker Fruit."

As Mengchen watched carefully, he discovered that both her gaze and her outstretched hand were pointed at the Yin-Yang Dragon Whisker Fruit not far from Heizi's side.

Mengchen timed it, and just as she was about to succeed, he roared fiercely: "Hey! Bold Fox Spirit, how dare you steal my Yin-Yang Dragon Whisker Fruit."

While letting out the roar, he jumped down from the high tree branch; his timing was perfect, and he grabbed her outstretched hand tightly in one go.

Mengchen's sudden appearance caused the girl to instantly display a look of shock, and she truly looked quite frightened.

This happened almost in an instant.

Just as the girl heard the roar and was about to look up, someone had already jumped down and firmly grabbed her wrist. Although the girl was startled, she quickly launched a counterattack; in an instant, her other hand unleashed a terrifying divine light, striking toward the position of Mengchen's heart.

This divine light attack was mixed with mysterious Runes and had terrifying power, forcing Mengchen to dodge, and he had to let go of the wrist he was holding tightly.

"Boom!"

The divine light attack struck the treetop of the ancient tree, instantly piercing through a tree trunk with a diameter of over ten meters, leaving a hole as large as a bowl.

After breaking free from his hand, the girl retreated violently, looked up while focusing her mind, and secretly wondered: "I didn't even notice his presence just now?"

"This little Fox Spirit has such fierce methods!" Looking at the pierced tree trunk, Mengchen felt a chill in his heart.

The next moment, the two locked eyes; neither side seemed to erupt with intense hostility, and instead, they were very calm.

Before long, the girl's solemn expression changed instantly, and she lifted her other hand to gently rub the wrist that had just been grabbed.

As she gently rubbed her wrist, she pulled back her sleeve, revealing a lotus-root-like arm that was snow-white and crystalline.

Her pair of watery eyes scattered intoxicating light.

She was dressed in pink-white clothes; although her body was still petite, her figure was already curvaceous, and coupled with her beauty that was breathtaking, she could be described as vibrant and alluring. In a few years, she would surely grow into a peerless beauty.

While rubbing her wrist, the girl showed Mengchen a pitiful expression and said: "Little brother, look, you've made sister's wrist red; you're so bad! You don't know how to cherish the fairer sex at all."

The girl's voice was magnetic, sexy, and pleasant to hear, making one feel as if their whole body was going soft.

"Hmph, you little Fox Spirit, don't try that on me. Who gave you the guts to dare steal my Yin-Yang Dragon Whisker Fruit?"

Mengchen looked stern, not swayed by the girl's seductive words below; her attack just now was very fierce and was made with the intention of killing him in one blow.

If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would likely have been dead or severely injured.

Therefore, facing this Fox Spirit, Mengchen dared not be careless.

"Little brother, you're so fierce! You've scared sister a little! Sister is a Tianhu who looks as beautiful as a celestial being; you shouldn't call me so crudely, you should call me Sister Fox Immortal."

The girl took a lotus step forward, her posture graceful, her curves slightly undulating, her nine snow-white fox tails swaying behind her, her pink-white dress fluttering, and her eyes sparkling, extremely seductive.

But no matter how she displayed her seductiveness, Mengchen remained serious and did not give her a pleasant look.

"Hmph! I'm scaring you, you little Fox Spirit."

Hearing these words, the girl showed no sign of anger; instead, she was all smiles, her red lips bright, her white teeth slightly exposed, possessing a very special temptation.

"Little brother, your serious look is really likable."

"Hehehe..."

Then, she waved her jade hands gracefully, laughing until she swayed, her curvaceous petite body rocking back and forth, displaying the utmost charm that could make one's heart wander infinitely.

"You Fox Spirit, how dare you try to seduce me time and again in broad daylight under the clear sky; you deserve to be suppressed."

The girl's series of words and actions made Mengchen feel deeply uneasy.

This constant "little brother" made him feel truly uncomfortable.

Furthermore, this was only their first meeting, and it had not been a pleasant one; her unusually abnormal display of affection could not help but make one suspicious.

Perhaps this was a performance she had deliberately put on, while she was secretly brewing some murderous intent behind the scenes.

After all, her previous sharp counterattack made him very uneasy about the Fox Spirit before him, so it would be best to strike first and suppress her early to avoid any sudden accidents.
