Ten miles of peach blossom forest, mountainsides covered in peach blossoms. Ye Fan and a few others strolled leisurely through the peach orchard. Peach petals fell from the trees from time to time, sometimes landing on them. Zhuge Yan muttered, "We've been walking for ages, but we can't even see a ghost. Wasn't it said that there are fox spirits in the peach forest ten miles away?" "Where is the fox spirit?" Ye Fan rolled his eyes. I know more than you do! "The Willow God only told me to come to the peach forest for ten miles to find Bai Ye Great God, but he didn't say where Bai Ye Great God is?" "Oh, I don't know how long this will take." Ye Hao looked around in dismay, his face full of regret. He should have asked for clarification before he left. wuu wuu wuu~ Just when Ye Fan and the others were at a loss, a chirping sound came from the peach grove. A sky-blue fox with soft, glossy fur and a petite frame suddenly leaped from afar to the front of the group of people. It gazed at them with intensely human-like eyes. "This is..." "A fox spirit?" Everyone stared at the little fox before them, their minds involuntarily conjuring up a thought. ...the fox spirit of the peach blossom forest ten miles long... Won't it just be this little one?! Ye Fan's face turned grim. If that were true, wouldn't it mean his long-cherished dream hadn't even begun before it was shattered? Zhuge Yan merely glanced at Ye Fan with the corner of her eye. She immediately saw through his little thoughts, and couldn't help but chuckle softly. Ye Fan glared at her, thinking to himself, "This bed warmer maid is getting more and more presumptuous!" This temper won't do, needs some training! However, before anyone could react, several slender and beautiful women suddenly appeared from afar. You're a demon, I saw through your disguise at first glance! Ye Fan only glanced at the few women who were hurrying over before immediately discerning their identities. This time, I'm absolutely sure! They are all fox spirits! His mastery of ancient holy eye techniques wasn't something to be taken lightly. The woman at the head, seemingly in her thirties, wore a cloud-colored court dress. Her features were stately and dignified, yet her eyes and eyebrows inadvertently revealed a hint of allure that was incongruous with her bearing. However, this is also in line with her fox spirit identity. Behind him stood a group of women in green, blue, and purple robes. They appeared to be between sixteen and twenty years old. Perhaps they were fox spirits, each one stunningly beautiful. Even several of them were more beautiful than Zhugeyan, just looking at their faces. A woman in palace attire, with <<< for a headpiece, walked up to the small fox. She bent her body slightly and gently took it into her arms. "Xiao Jiu, you're being naughty again!" "Did you know that because of you running around, your several older sisters almost got scared out of their wits." The little fox's round head bumped against the woman in court attire's chest, making tiny whimpering sounds. Yè Fàn jǐ rén tīng bù dǒng, gōng zhuāng nǚ zi zé shì yī liǎn chǒng dù de páo le páo xiǎo hú li hū jiāo xiǎng shēn qū, dào: "Yí yí bùshì bù zhǔn nǐ wán, zhǐ shì jīn jiē jǐ gè yuè zhèlǐ bù ān jìng, nǐ yào zhēn xiǎng wán, huí qīng qiū le, zěn me wán dōu xíng." The little fox cried out again and again. The woman in palace attire immediately wanted to lecture him again, but seeing the little fox's soft and cute eyes, her heart melted. Never mind! Let Xiao Jiu play if he wants to! Anyway, with Bai Ye adult watching over the peach forest for ten miles, who would be so blind to harm Xiao Jiu? Ye Fan waited for a while until the woman in palace attire stopped talking, then walked forward and spoke: "Hello there, sister. My name is Ye Fan, and I've come here with some friends to visit the White Night God of this place. I wonder if you could show us the way? We will certainly repay your kindness!" Saying that, Ye Fan took out a divine weapon from his storage bag. The meaning is self-evident. The woman in court attire lingered her gaze on the holy weapon in Ye Fan's hand, thinking inwardly: "A holy weapon! Such a hefty expenditure, worthy of being the person mentioned specially by Lord Bai Ye." Please be aware that, as the elder of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, she only possesses a holy weapon on her person. After all, the Qingqiu family is large and influential, with many members but limited resources. She's not very experienced, so being able to wield a sacred weapon is quite lucky for her. As for the group of young women behind the woman in palace attire, they were all dumbfounded when Ye Fan drew out his holy weapon. Their mouths hung open slightly, clearly surprised beyond words. They even looked at Ye Fan with eyes that burned with a newfound intensity. Even Ye Fan suspected that if it weren't for the woman in palace attire pressing down on them beforehand, these fox spirits would have likely wanted to devour him alive. Thinking back on that scene, Ye Fan felt a thrill! However, to Ye Fan's surprise, the woman in court dress didn't bat an eyelid when faced with the allure of the holy soldiers. She directly spoke, "Your intentions, Lord Bai Ye is already aware of." Ye Fan was startled! Could this White Night master actually have precognition? Ye Fan muttered in his heart, this Bai Ye, is he so capable? You know I wanted to test the waters with a vixen, so you sent this whole pack out? Even, to cater to my preferences, they even arranged for an older one? No way! No way! Is he that good?
Of course, all of the above are Ye Fan's YY, who would be so bored as a god? The Bai Ye deity, knowing their intentions, was clearly targeting his own Douyu (a popular Chinese live streaming platform), Ye Hao. Ye Fan lightly coughed and said, "Since that's the case, then please lead the way, sister!" "Rest assured, this small gift won't be missing your sister's share." Saying that, Ye Fan passed the sacred weapon in his hand. However, to his surprise, the woman in palace attire did not accept, but instead explained: "Young brother, you've misunderstood. Lady Bai Ye indeed instructed me to come and pick someone up, but I'm only here to pick up this young brother." Having finished, the woman in palace attire pointed at Ye Hao. Ye Fan's face stiffened. What's this "white night" thing, and why are you treating it differently? Ye Hao looked embarrassed. He stepped forward and said, "Sister, my brother and I came here together. I can't leave them behind." A woman in palace attire spoke softly: "Lord Baiye usually doesn't concern himself with worldly affairs and avoids outsiders. The fact that he has taken the time to meet you today is because of the face given by the person behind you." "This..." Ye Hao was hesitating, when Ye Fan suddenly stood up and said: "Little brother, important business first, you go with this sister first, we'll wait for you here." "Big brother!" Ye Hao's face was filled with emotion, his eyes welled up. Ye Fan was speechless. This kid was too easily moved, wasn't he? >But this is good, after all, he is his half-brother. The deeper their bond over time, the better.
"Um..." "I have one more thing to say. Aside from this young brother, this place is not a suitable dwelling for many." "Master Bai Ye will help this young brother erase the mark of this world. There might be a bit of commotion, so..." A woman in palace attire interrupted the conversation between Ye Fan and his brother, with an apologetic expression. Ye Fan looked puzzled. Could that be? Then he asked, "What about these younger sisters?" "Would you like to come with us too?" A woman in court attire said with a nonchalant expression, "They have their own place to go." "That place doesn't welcome outsiders!" Ye Fan smiled wryly upon hearing this. He had originally wanted to visit the fox's den and see what it was like, but now it seemed he could only give up on that idea. …… After the woman in palace attire took Ye Hao away, Ye Fan and the others returned along the original path. Before leaving the Peach Forest, Ye Fan cast one last glance at the otherworldly scenery. He furrowed his brow. I have a strange feeling about this place! It's as if everything is targeting him, Ye! |
