To say they were stunned by what they were seeing was an understatement.
The handsome and ruthless Sovereign Lord, ruler of all the Celestial Nine-Tailed Foxes, the frightening Hu Li Jing, High Deity who puts n.o.body in his eyes was right there, strutting while performing a series of primary martial arts moves which even the youngest members of the clan had easily mastered. As if it was a great achievement, he looked no better than a peac.o.c.k in mating season.
There was no doubt about it, the Fox Lord was indeed showing off in front of his consort.
A picture is worth a thousand words, but this is really hard to take in, okay?!
Eeek!
When the Fox Lord bent down to kiss the mortal girl, the fox twins immediately covered their eyes and turned around to face the other side. If they ended up seeing something they shouldn"t, they wouldn"t be able to preserve their eyesight!
At that exact moment, Bai Yu popped his head from one of the bushes, huddling close between the Xiao twins.
"I see that you"ve been acquainted with the other side of His Lords.h.i.+p"s personality." Bai Yu spoke with a hint of arrogance, scratching the back of his ears.
The girls eyed the little fox perched between them, a sinister light could be seen in their eyes as they disregarded his words. "Oh, you came just at the right time. We were looking for you…"
Bai Yu rubbed his plump belly, sn.i.g.g.e.ring foolishly. Maybe this was his lucky year with the opposite s.e.x? Women have been coming left and right after him, seeking his company!
But sadly, he was such a busy fox, how could he possibly spare time for all of them?
"Be it any other day, I would happily keep you ladies company. Alas, I am on a secret mission and can only humbly refuse."
The girls rolled their eyes at him. "Who wants your companions.h.i.+p? You senile old fox! The Sovereign Lord ordered us to go to the Hall of Punishment! Hurry up, you must be back here by tomorrow morning."
"..." Said the disguised "s...o...b..ll". Like the day turning into night, so did Bai Yu"s gloating happiness switch into immense sorrow.
"Why is Sire always punis.h.i.+ng me? Uwuwuwuu…" Bai Yu silently cried.
Meanwhile, The Fox Lord"s consort righteously defended herself against her teacher"s statement. "Don"t be silly. How can you say such a thing? I don"t want you to die!"
"Heh, well, you do not wish me to have any children. How can I continue my line without your cooperation? If that is not death to a man, I do not know what else to call it." Zhu Qingyue"s deep, magnetic voice didn"t match his brazen choice of words.
