Chapter 118: With You

  The little fox's tenth tail had just grown out halfway when a pained expression suddenly appeared on its face, and the growing tail quickly retracted back.

  Liu Yi Yang and Ou Yang Juan both noticed that its tenth tail had not taken shape.

  The two of them exchanged a glance, and both saw the shock in each other's eyes. Ten-Tails Crossing Calamity, this is the characteristic of all fox demons, having the tenth tail proves that they have passed the heavenly calamity and become a different existence in the demon beast world.

  But the tenth tail of this little fox has not fully formed, and without a fully formed tenth tail, it can't be considered to have truly passed the heavenly tribulation. Even Ouyang Xun was somewhat perplexed by this situation, which she had never seen before, nor had she ever heard of it.

  "Chirping"

  The little fox turned back into its original form and called out softly to Ouyang Xun.

  "You are a survivor of a failed tribulation, lucky to be alive" Ouyang Xun's mind flashed and he suddenly thought of a very rare phenomenon, and immediately asked.

  The little fox nodded immediately, and a hint of sadness appeared on its face again.

  Generally speaking, whether it's a human or a demon, the outcome of failing to cross the tribulation is only one path, that is, both body and spirit are destroyed. Although there are some who have failed to cross the tribulation but managed to escape with their lives, they are extremely rare.

  Even if escaped, power will be greatly reduced and no longer possess the original ability.

  In front of her was a small fox, which was a demon who had failed to cross the tribulation and survived by luck. However, Ouyang Xun couldn't understand why this little fox didn't take good care of its injuries after failing to cross the tribulation, but instead ran to the city. Moreover, how did the demon core of that big black wolf end up in its hands again?

  "When we were fighting against Da Tou Hei Lang and Mo Xiu before, were you at the scene?" Liu Yi Yang suddenly asked a sentence, he also had those doubts, but he thought more.

  That day on the scene he felt a hint of a different aura, but the aura was very weak and fleeting. Plus, he and Ouyang Xuan had just won and were still in the midst of the joy of being reborn from a near-death experience, so he didn't think much of it.

  Now that I think about it, the unusual aura that appeared that day was very likely this little fox.

  "Chirping"

  The little fox nodded vigorously, Liu Yi Yang and Ouyang Xuan looked at each other, even more puzzled.

  Especially Ou Yang Hua, she understood more than Liu Yi Yang, and knew the effect of this demon pill on the demon in front of her. It was really incomprehensible why she stole the demon pill and then spat it out for them. Was it because they happened to meet again?

  "Chirping"

  The little fox cried out and while crying, it continuously drew something on the ground with its paws. The two couldn't understand what it was saying, but that didn't stump it. Since language wasn't working, it used pictures to show them, quickly drawing several simple pictures.

  After finishing drawing, it jumped far away and kept calling at the place where it drew.

  Liu Yi Yang and Ouyang Xuan exchanged a glance, and the two of them walked forward together, arriving at the place where it was painted. They opened the flashlight on their mobile phone and took a closer look.

  The picture on the ground is indeed very simple, with only a few paintings. The first one has a small animal that looks like a fox and a simple human figure. A fox and a person are hiding in the corner next to it, secretly watching an abandoned factory where people are still fighting inside.

  After looking at each other again, they nodded together.

  The meaning of this picture is easy to understand. It's them fighting in the factory when this little fox and another person are peeking from the side, secretly watching them.

  But thinking about it now is also a bit frightening, they didn't know that at the time of the intense battle, there was a ninth-level demon lurking beside them, and there was also an unknown person with unknown cultivation level present. At that time, if one of them had malicious intentions, the two would have been in even greater danger.

  After seeing the first picture, both of them immediately looked at the second one.

  The second one is simpler. A small fox has a bead in its mouth, and behind it is the head of a wolf and a corpse. The little fox carefully watches the people at the factory with the bead in its mouth, then sneaks away quietly.

  Liu Yi Yang couldn't help but smile when he saw this picture, and Ouyang Xun also burst out laughing.

  No matter what kind of fox spirit this little fox is, the picture it painted is very interesting, vividly depicting a little thief's image. It's hard for it to paint itself like that, and it's a very cute little fox.

  Soon they saw the third picture, which was simpler and no longer in a factory, but in a simple room. There was a person who was angrily shouting, and in front of him was a pitiful little fox, and in front of the little fox was a pearl.

  At a glance, both of them understood that Little Fox had been scolded by the person hiding in the dark.

  Why scolding it can also understand, may be because of its secretly running to pick up the pearl's behavior. After seeing these three pictures, even Ouyang Xun's impression of the little fox has improved a lot. Of course, it is still difficult for her to change her views on Yao Mei, after all, since she was a child, the education she received was to eliminate all Yao Mei and other non-human cultivators.

  Ouyang Xuan lowered her head again and looked at the fourth picture.

  The fourth picture is a person holding a bag with half of a small fox's head sticking out. Then, a long train grew together with them. In the front of the train are two people, Liu Yi Yang and Ouyang Xuan in simple attire.

  This picture tells them that it was the mysterious man who brought the little fox to chase them. They came by train and the little fox didn't know how to express itself, so it drew a picture.

  Finally, there is another picture that is even simpler. A small fox is running in the front, and a fat-faced terrifying big man is chasing after it. The person who has been holding the little fox all along is waving their hand non-stop behind them, looking very anxious.

  The painting was simple, but the little fox's drawing was quite good, vivid and lifelike, even Ouyang Xun was amused.

  "Are you here to return the demon pellet?"

  Liu Yi Yang smiled slightly, but soon asked again. The meaning of the painting is easy to understand. Stealing the demon pill and getting scolded, chasing here, and finally taking out the demon pill for them, what else could it be besides returning the demon pill?

  Ouyang Xuan also raised her head and looked at the little fox, the killing intent on her body was no longer so strong.

  "Chirping"

  The little fox nodded quickly, it was indeed here to return the demon pill, and had been chased from Licheng all the way to Xuzhou. It just didn't expect to be so unlucky, running into a formidable guy as soon as it arrived in Xuzhou, who then chased it all the way here.

  "How did you know we were in Xuzhou? And who is that person with you?"

  Ouyang Huan asked in a low voice, only a few people knew about their trip to Xuzhou, and no one knew about the battle with the demon cultivator. This little fox was able to follow them all along, it definitely wasn't that simple.

  "Chirping"

  The little fox cried out again, its body grew larger once more and transformed anew. This time it was no longer the big-headed black wolf that appeared, but a wisp of white mist. The mist coalesced into a mirror, on which a scene gradually began to take shape.

  The scene shows a city street view, with a person standing at the door of a small hotel walking back and forth, with a worried look on his face. The title above the small hotel can be seen with the words "Xuzhou".

  Yì Gāng

  When he saw this person, Liu Yi Yang's eyes suddenly widened, and his eyeballs almost popped out.

  The person who appeared on the screen was not someone else, but his own younger brother. Seeing his younger brother appear on the screen, Liu Yi Yang's brain went blank and he became dizzy and confused, unable to think of anything.

  Ouyang Huan saw Liu Yi Yang's younger brother and was also stunned by the person in the painting. He hastily asked: "Are you saying that the one who has been with you all along, who secretly watched us fight against Mo Xiu, and then brought you to chase after us, is this person in the painting?"

  "Chirping"

  The little fox turned back into its original form and called out again, nodding its head repeatedly.

  Ouyang Huan stood there foolishly, and she was also a bit dazed. She wasn't much better than Liu Yi Yang, but at least her mind was still clear. Unlike Liu Yi Yang, who was completely bewildered, she couldn't believe that her own brother was actually with a demon.

  All along, the impression was that his younger brother was an honest and obedient child, and had no contact with the mysterious gate. Suddenly, he found out that his younger brother was actually raising a powerful ninth-level demon, which was unbelievable for Liu Yi Yang to accept.

  If he didn't understand these things, it would be fine to treat the little fox as a normal pet. But he understands, and now he understands even more, which makes it even harder for him to accept.

  "Yi Yang, I guess it's probably true."

  Ouyang Huan pulled Liu Yi Yang down and whispered that if the person with Xiao Hu Li was Liu Yi Yang's younger brother, then everything could be explained.

  Firstly, the two brothers had a very good relationship. If the younger brother wasn't an ordinary person, he might have discovered the existence of the demon cultivator and followed him out of concern for his older brother. Seeing that his older brother was not in danger or having removed the danger, he would quietly leave. The only unexpected event was that the little fox stole the Black Wolf Demon Dan.

  Because the demon pill was stolen, and it was stolen from his own brother, that's why he got angry, and brought the little fox to return it back. Unexpectedly, when they arrived at Xuzhou, they encountered other people from the Mystic Door, the little fox was discovered, then they started running away, the fluctuation of their spiritual energy while running away startled them, and they directly chased after them to this place.

  The little fox didn't know that the two people chasing behind were them, so he kept running. After seeing them, he immediately spat out the demon pill and returned it to him.

  This explanation can be used to explain it, but there are still many problems with it.

  For example, if his younger brother was really a Xuanmen disciple, how could he be possessed by a nightmare and almost killed? And why didn't he come together to chase after him, but instead stayed behind waiting?

  All of this can probably be understood only after seeing him.

  "Xiao Xuan, we're going back right away. Xiao Hu Li, I can trust you with all this, but you need to give me a reason to believe in you. Now, I'm going to take you with us and bring you back together. How about it?"

  Liu Yi Yang finally came to his senses, although he was unwilling to believe it, but also understood that this might all be true.

  They all have the luck to be recognized by the divine instrument, and those who come into contact with the mysterious gate, why can't his younger brother have such an opportunity? Everything must wait until they return and see their younger brother, and only then can they ask clearly and know.

  "Chirping"

  The little fox cried out again and nodded repeatedly. It did not object to Liu Yi Yang's request to confine it, as long as everything would be explained when they returned. The fox believed that Liu Yi Yang and Ouyang Xun would not harm it, just like how it completely trusted its younger brother Liu Yi Gang.
