I Just Want to Live a Good Life but I Surpassed the Protagonist – 81 White Fox
Seeing the white fox struggling violently, Ye Yong realized something. He dispelled the Beast Avoidance Incense on his body. Only then did the white fox’s emotions stabilize a little, but it didn’t let down its guard. It put on a posture of Ying enemy.
Foxes were very intelligent animals, and spirit beasts were even more so. The white fox could tell that Ye Yong wasn’t a hunter, but it couldn’t be at ease with a human approaching it. It was just that the intense struggle just now caused the toxin to flow faster. It had already spread throughout its body, and it became weak and couldn’t stand steadily. It didn’t maintain its posture for long before collapsing to the ground.
Ye Yong came before the white fox. He had never seen a cultivator’s hunting trap before. In fact, it was his first time seeing one. He didn’t know how to lift it. If he forcefully split it open, he might hurt the white fox. Soon, he discovered that there were simple formation patterns on it, so he spent 1000 Reversal Points in the shop to buy a Beginner’s formation Detailed Explanation. A bunch of basic formation knowledge flooded into his mind.
The Beginner’s Formation Detailed Explanation gave Ye Yong the knowledge of a Beginner’s Formation Master. Beginner’s Formation Masters were considered entry-level, and one had to be at least at Level 3 to be considered capable of handling things independently.
Formation was ranked 7th in difficulty among the Six Arts. Some people couldn’t learn it their entire lives, just like how some students couldn’t learn calculus. Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary cultivators, Beginner Formation Masters weren’t just getting started that simple. Even if one wasn’t a genius and didn’t have monster talent, as long as the formation was arranged properly, it was completely possible for Foundation Establishment to kill Crystal Formation. Li Junxia was already a Level 5 Formation Master at a young age. The gold content of this formation genius was self-evident.
Therefore, as long as Ye Yong spent another 60,000 Reversal Points to buy the Intermediate and Advanced Formation Detailed Explanations, he would be able to have many titles, and because he was younger than him, he could even surpass him.
It was so cool to hang up. If studying was so simple, that would be great.
Ye Yong lamented a little, and then used the Beginner knowledge he had mastered to break the formation patterns on the hunting trap. Now, he didn’t have such high-level formation knowledge. Reversal Points were limited, and he didn’t ‘t have the mind to grab any titles.
After the hunting trap was opened, the white fox wanted to escape, but it didn’t have the strength. It didn’t take two steps before it collapsed.
Ye Yong shook his head, took out some healing powder, and sprinkled it on the white fox’s wound. He then fed it a detoxification pill.
Soon, the white fox recovered somewhat. It stared at Ye Yong for a while, then lay down on the ground, revealing its belly.
Foxes belong to the canine family, and canines usually expose their bellies to show submission and friendliness.
It seemed that Ye Yong was in a pretty good mood. He fantasized about the white fox repaying his kindness, but when he looked at the white fox’s lower body, he suddenly lost interest.
After all this time, it turned out to be a male.
Ye Yong had no desire to touch it at all. He turned around and left, saying as he walked, “If a beast trap is set up somewhere, there will be an abnormal gathering of spiritual power. This is also why you spirit beasts are attracted to it. Don’t be so foolish next time.”
After Ye Yong completely disappeared at the end of the forest path, the white fox stood up, relieved.
“Rustle, rustle.” The grass next to it moved, and then another white fox appeared. It was smaller in size and had smoother fur.
“Brother, I was so afraid you were going to be caught.” The little white fox spoke in a girly voice, her eyes filled with fear.
“Me too. I was lucky today to meet a kind human cultivator.”
“If you were lucky, you wouldn’t have stepped into the trap. I told you not to go over there.”
“hahahaha, overall it’s still good, isn’t it? Now it’s all right. You did a good job hiding and not coming out just now. After all, who knows what his intentions are?”
“Mm.” The little white fox looked at the place where Ye Yong had disappeared and sniffed the air, trying to remember Ye Yong’s scent. Suddenly, it found that Ye Yong’s scent seemed to be coming back, and it immediately drilled into the grass , holding its breath and concentration.
Ye Yong really did come back. The first thing he did was squat down and hold the white fox’s shoulder. “Hey, do you have any sisters?”
The white fox looked puzzled. Why did it feel like the human in front of it was more excited than before? It didn’t speak, because the elders had taught them not to speak in front of humans, or they would suffer. fox didn’t know Ye Yong’s intentions, so it shook its head.
“Really?” Ye Yong sighed with regret. “But you’re from the nearby spirit fox clan, right? If you ever find human presence around your territory, even just a trace, don’t hesitate to move immediately.”
The white fox almost opened its mouth to ask why, but fortunately it held back.
After Ye Yong finished speaking these nonsensical words, he left again.
“Brother, did he, did he find me?” The little white fox poked its head out of the grass.
“I don’t think so. I can’t figure out what he’s trying to do. Let’s go back first. It’s not a good idea to stay here for long.”
The two white figures quickly disappeared into the ground.
———
“It can’t be that coincidental.” Ye Yong sighed.
Why did he go back after leaving? Because he suddenly thought of a female character in the middle of the story.
Hua Ningyan.
Hua Ningyan was a spirit fox who later became a powerful demon cultivator. She was beautiful and deadly. Countless human cultivators had died by her hand, and she hated the human race deeply. The reason for this was that when she was young, she witnessed her brother being captured by cultivators. At that time, she had not yet transformed into a human, but had learned a profound concealment technique, making her impossible to sense.
She followed behind all the way, wanting to rescue her brother, but she never found an opportunity. Instead, she witnessed her brother being cruelly killed and skinned. From that moment on, she deeply hated human cultivators.
She firmly remembered the scent of her enemies, and returned to her clan to cultivate diligently, planning to avenge her brother. Before she could become stronger, human cultivators discovered their territory and launched a large-scale hunt. She managed to escape thanks to her concealment technique, and she began to hate all humans, transforming from a spirit beast into a demon beast.
She was very talented, and her hatred spurred her to grow rapidly. In just a few decades, the Foundation Establishment little spirit fox became a deadly Nascent Soul fox. She killed all her enemies, and then destroyed all the countries, towns, and villages hundreds of miles south of Spirit Shadow Mountain. She didn’t want to see any more humans.
Cultivators from nearby sects came to conquer her, but none of them returned.
This attracted the attention of the top sects, and powerful cultivators personally took action. Hua Ningyan was seriously injured and escaped at a critical moment. She transformed back into her original form and happened to meet the protagonist. A classic scene appeared in the book : the protagonist bandaged her wound and healed her. Then, without asking for anything in return, she left, completing the killing and reforming the demon fox.
Unfortunately, Hua Ningyan had killed too many people and was stained with deep sin. The righteous path could not tolerate her, so she could only be active in the dark. When the demons and demons invaded in the middle of the story, Hua Ningyan chose to help the human race because of the protagonist, and she eventually died in battle. She was also the only female character who died in the new Divine Emperor.
In the words of the dog author, she died because it was her best chance at redemption and her final destination. Just like her name, Hua Ningyan, a beautiful flower burned into the last flame, condensing into smoke.
However, the dog author also mentioned that if those changes hadn’t happened, Hua Ningyan’s talent would have allowed her to become an immortal fox, not a demon fox.
Ye Yong had just saved the white fox, and when he found out it was a male, he immediately lost the desire to have it repay his kindness. He hadn’t gone far when he suddenly remembered Hua Ningyan, so he ran back to ask it if it had any sisters. Unfortunately, the white fox shook its head and denied it. It was not Hua Ningyan’s brother. However, Ye Yong still felt that he could change Hua Ningyan’s future path.
Of course, it wasn’t completely impossible. At least Ye Yong had just reminded the white fox about the territory, so there was still a glimmer of hope. Now he was just afraid that the white fox was not from the same territory as Hua Ningyan.
