Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

*Cough*

Lady Liu coughed and gazed at Aiko.

Bloodline: [Moon Goddess Kitsune(Dormant)], [??? - 1/10->3/10]

Aiko stiffened and looked over, rubbing the back of her head in a silly manner.

"Aiko." Lady Liu smiled, but Aiko was looking around for spots that she would be able to hide in.

"Hehe." Aiko giggled silly while trying to run away... but she was caught almost immediately by Chen Shi.

Chen Shi smiled happily. He knew that Aiko would get punished.

Chen Shi obediently brought Aiko to Lady Liu.

Lady Liu held her nose from the smell.

"Lady Liu." The Blood Fox and Umbra Fox gently nodded.

"At least you are somewhat presentable." Lady Liu nodded gently. "As for you..."

She eyed Aiko up and down. Aiko did not bathe, the smell was just god-awful.

"You need a bath." Lady Liu nodded gently, but everyone could see the crack in Chen Shi's smile.

"Lady Liu," Chen Shi addressed her as such since he was still in his punishment period. "I believe they can take care of her." Chen Shi gently pointed towards Aiko's team.

"That is impossible." Lady Liu shook her head.

Chen Shi almost collapsed. "Why not?" He couldn't accept the fact that those Foxes would be able to bask in Lady Liu's light! It was completely unacceptable that they could gaze on her body!

"Have you ever cleaned such bloodstains?" Lady Liu asked them.

They both paused.

The Blood Fox was master with blood, but this Blood was very different and strange. She noticed that they couldn't transform as long as they had that blood on them.

The Umbra Fox frowned even more. It took her 2 whole days of bathing to get rid of that nasty Blood! She didn't know how to work on it properly!

Both of them shook their heads.

"See?" Lady Liu sighed. "They are too young to understand and have the know-how to clean it. Especially when it's already- Ugh." Lady Liu recoiled from the smell.

Chen Shi was concerned and upset; how could he convince her not to bathe with them? But his love-stricken brain did not function properly and he couldn't come up with a solution.

"In that case, count me in too!" A very cheery bird appeared out of nowhere and Chen Shi's face was completely distorted.

"That's not nice!" The Great Roc Mother cried out.

"Yanqi." Lady Liu smiled. "Are you finished transporting the bodies?"

"Yes." The Great Roc Mother nodded gently.

Meanwhile, Chen Shi was choking on his own thoughts. 'Impossible! How are they already on first name basis?!'

He was speechlessly stunned by this new development.

"Even those behind the Palace?" Chen Shi immediately tried to drive her away.

"Naturally." The Great Roc Mother stuck out her tongue.

Chen Shi almost popped a vein on his forehead.

"Ugh..." The Great Roc Mother frowned. "What's this awful smell?"

Lady Liu smiled; not saying anything, but Aiko looked away. No way she stank that bad, right...?

"So when are we having a bath?" The Great Roc Mother immediately perked up.

"Soon." Lady Liu said gently.

"No." Chen Shi said instinctively.

Everyone looked towards him. This was an awkward situation and a slight blush crept onto his neck.

He looked away, pretending that he didn't say anything.

"Pfft. Are you jealous~? Want me to hug you to sleep~?" The Great Roc Mother giggled happily.

Chen Shi's face hardened and he looked towards Aiko, his eyes were trying to hypnotise her. 'Say something witty, save this god-awful situation!'

Aiko smiled. "Let the big sister hug you." Aiko said mischievously.

Chen Shi's fists tightened; he was so close to throwing this brat far away!

"Don't be mean." Lady Liu said sternly.

""Auch."" Both Aiko and the Great Roc Mother had their cheeks pinched by Lady Liu.

Now, normally that wouldn't do anything to them, but since they cared about her, they lowered their defences to allow her to pinch them.

Lady Liu then sniffed something. "You also smell rotten!" She stared at Yanqi.

The Great Roc Mother recoiled. "No way!" She smelled herself, trying to convince Lady Liu.

Unfortunately for her, her face was distorted from the smell.

"Alright." Lady Liu nodded. "Both of you will have a bath!" She stared daggers at them.

She then dragged them away, leaving the Prince with the Princess staring speechlessly...

"Does that mean you are alright now?" He was concerned about her.

"En." She felt good; tired, but good. There were no strange after-effects on her body or anything like that.

The Prince burned with desire, but he suppressed it for the time being.

But that did not mean he wouldn't cuddle her all day!

...

{Side Palace: Open Bath}

Aiko splashed into the water first. Now that she took her clothes off, she could smell how bad it was.

She was unable to bear her own smell and as such, she was the first one to dive into the water.

"Aiko..." Lady Liu sighed. The water immediately turned red.

"I got the Blood Pacifier from the Snake." The Great Roc Mother said gently.

"What does that do?" The Blood Fox was mildly interested.

"It would allow you to control the Blood." The Great Roc Mother smiled.

"Oh." The Blood Fox nodded, which meant that Aiko would not bathe alone, as she could clean the water from the blood.

There was also an issue with filth, but that would be solved by an artefact from the Great Roc Mother.

They came close to the bath and she threw the Pill into the water.

It melted, not changing the colour of the water, nor was there a visible change.

The only one who could perceive this change was the Blood Fox.

She realised that she could start controlling the water; not how she was used to, but good enough that she could push the Blood away.

"That is truly amazing." Lady Liu nodded with a smile; if she had this kind of attendant in the Immortal World, that would save her a lot of trouble.

They all got into the water, but both Foxes kept staring at the Great Roc Mother.

"You like these?" The Great Roc Mother teased them by cupping her own breasts, but her hands were simply too tiny to contain them, so they spilt everywhere.

The duo blushed, they never saw just a large pair before.

"Don't tease them too much," Lady Liu pinched the Great Roc Mother's chubby waist. "They might overheat the water." Naturally, she also wanted to tease them.

The Great Roc Mother pouted, Lady Liu always liked to target her chubby parts until she got rid of them...

The Great Roc Mother kept pouting and waiting till Lady Liu would let her guard down.

Unfortunately for her, Lady Liu grabbed the special soap and a very thick brush and went towards Aiko.

She immediately rubbed the soap everywhere, making Aiko giggle.

"That tickles~" Aiko giggled.

"You will not be in such a good mood once we go over the basic etiquette." Lady Liu smiled, but Aiko shivered.

"I did nothing wrong!" Aiko defended herself. "Right, guys?"

The duo kept staring at the Great Roc Mother's breasts. Their thoughts are filled with different dreams and fantasies.

They completely ignored Aiko's cry for help, but even if they did hear her, they would not help her...

Aiko could only brace herself for what was to come and she had only herself to blame.

...

Lady Liu kept scrubbing and scrubbing until Aiko turned into a Fox form.

Aiko wanted to lie down and sleep. Her body was free from those restraints of not being able to transform, but now that she had transformed, she was just incredibly sleepy.

She didn't sleep for quite a long time...

Lady Liu frowned. She was frowning since she already used 2 whole special soaps to clean Aiko, but even then she was unable to scrub everything off.

Aiko made it more difficult with her Fox form, which made her pout.

She was not really upset that Aiko transformed, but at the fact that she would have to clean all of her fur, not just her tail.

Aiko yawned, her head resting on someone's lap. Aiko didn't really care about who it was, the important thing was that it was soft and warm.

The water was plenty warm, but she couldn't sleep on it, lest she would drown...

The Great Roc Mother kept glancing at the small fox, who placed her head on the insides of her legs.

She then glanced at the duo who were frowning and smiled. "See?" She pinched her juicy thigh. "Much better when it has more meat~" She hummed teasingly.

That hum caused her body to vibrate, which Aiko disliked.

*Nom*

"KYA!" A very questionable sound escaped the Great Roc Mother's lips and she jumped away.

The duo nodded with smiles. 'That's what you get when you are not a proper sleeping pillow.'

The Great Roc Mother felt wrong, especially so since Lady Liu was laughing at her.

"This is not fair..." The Great Roc Mother sobbed gently.

"I told you that you shouldn't be teasing them so much~" Lady Liu hummed happily.

Meanwhile, Aiko had an awful day in her life.

First, her nice soft pillow vibrated, which she disliked. She bit on it to make it stop, but the pillow just vanished and Aiko was met with a pillow made out of water.

She coughed up water and sneezed a few times before plopping her head on yet another delightful pair of soft pillows.

The Umbra Fox was shocked as this would be one of the first times Aiko would seek her like that and she didn't know what to do...

"It's fine." The Blood Fox said, cleaning her body slowly. "As long as you don't do what she did, you will be alright." The Blood Fox gestured towards the Great Roc Mother.

"But I don't know what she did!" The Umbra Fox sobbed and stiffened once Aiko sighed.

Fortunately, Aiko did not do anything else and kept snoozing away, her ears flat from tiredness.

Lady Liu came close and continued rubbing Aiko until she would clean her completely.

The Blood Fox joined her after cleaning her body and also manipulated some of that Blood away.

Lady Liu and the Blood Fox made a great tag team against Aiko's filthiness and they would join hands in cleaning her thoroughly!
