"Alright, alright."

"Stop splashing water."

Immortal Miao Feng stood by the bathtub, carefully wiping the little fox's back. Although she complained, her face was full of endless affection. She softly asked, "Where did you and Lu Xun go to play today?"

"During the day, we were eating and drinking. In the evening, we went to the lantern festival, watched plays and acrobatics," the little fox stood in the bathtub, revealing half of her body. She said with a smile, "These past few days have been so much fun."

"Having fun is one thing, but don't forget to continue your cultivation when we return," Immortal Miao Feng said lightly. "You little lady, always indulging in play."

The little fox pouted and helplessly replied, "I know, I will focus on my cultivation, but don't expect too much from me, Master. I'm probably just like this. It might be better to devote your time and energy to sister."

Immortal Miao Feng immediately guessed what was on her mind and said unkindly, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. While I can make concessions, trying to make me completely give up on your cultivation is out of the question, even if I die."

"What?!"

"Master, why are you talking like that?" The little fox hurriedly turned her head, saying anxiously, "You won't die!"

"Who said I won't?"

"I will be driven crazy to death by you!" Immortal Miao Feng glared at the little fox, angrily saying, "All you do is stir up trouble for me and make me worry. Especially the first time you secretly left the mountain. I still feel a bit scared when I think back to it."

The little fox awkwardly opened her mouth, but the words in her heart lingered for a long time and she couldn't say them. She lowered her head silently, squeaking, "That time… That time…"

"Alright."

"Anyway, I'll keep a close eye on you to ensure you cultivate diligently. Don't be lazy when the time comes," Immortal Miao Feng said calmly.

"Sigh!"

The little fox's face was full of frustration, and her cherry-like lips pouted high. She mumbled softly, "A few days ago, you told me that it didn't matter whether I cultivated or not, as long as you were here. Now you're changing your mind."

Hearing this, a blush spread across Immortal Miao Feng's cheeks on both sides. In her heart, she secretly cursed; It's not that I'm going back on my word, it's just that I don't want you to stumble upon the situation between me and Lu Xun. I can only make you go to bed early every night in the name of cultivation.

"Cough!"

"Don't talk nonsense. Master is doing this for your own good," Immortal Miao Feng cleared her throat twice and said with a serious tone, "As long as you reach the innate realm, Master will allow you to descend the mountain alone."

However, the little fox was not at all happy. Currently, she was only in the middle heaven realm. To break through the innate realm her master mentioned would take who knows how long, possibly hundreds of years if luck wasn't on her side. Hundreds of years without leaving the mountain would be suffocating.

After the little fox finished bathing, Immortal Miao Feng waved her hand, and her wet body instantly dried. She put on a petite loincloth and shorts, and her delicate little butt wiggled as she ran into the bedroom, quickly diving into the blanket.

Gradually, it got late into the night. The little fox snuggled in her Master's arms, feeling sleepless. The thought of going back home at dawn made her feel particularly melancholic.

"Aren't you sleeping yet?" Immortal Miao Feng gently rubbed the little fox's head and asked softly.

"I can't sleep a bit," the little fox mumbled, "Master, I haven't played enough."

"…"

"Even though you can keep up with Xuan Yin and even surpass her in talent, you're just so playful," Immortal Miao Feng sighed deeply and said with distress, "I'm both anxious and frustrated. Can't you really focus on cultivation?"

"Cultivation is boring," the little fox pouted stubbornly, "It's so tiring, and what's the point of reaching such a high level of cultivation? It doesn't mean much."

As her words trailed off, she raised her little head, looking curiously at her Master, "Master? What's the point of cultivation, anyway?"

"The point?"

Immortal Miao Feng was stunned, frowning in thought. After a while, her tightly-knit brows slowly relaxed, and she gently touched the little fox's head, softly saying, "The point of cultivation is to protect what you want to protect. You and Xuan Yin are what Master wants to protect."

"To protect what you want to protect…" The little fox lightly pursed her lips, and a painful memory surged in her mind. Her body began to tremble slightly.

"It's okay," Immortal Miao Feng sensed that the little fox was feeling uneasy and quickly hugged her tightly, comforting her, "Let the past stay in the past. Don't dwell on it anymore. Although you lost your parents, you still have Master and Xuan Yin. How about this? Every once in a while, Master will ask Lu Xun to take you down the mountain for a trip. How does that sound?"

"Great!" The little fox instantly stopped crying and broke into a smile. She nuzzled into her Master's arms a few times and said in a sweet voice, "Master, you can't go back on your word."

"…"

"Alright. Master will keep her promise. But you should show your sincerity to me. Focus on your cultivation and stop being lazy."

"Oh," the little fox responded in a soft and submissive manner.

The next day, on the horizon, on a flying sword.

Lu Xun tightly held the voluptuous big demoness in his arms, while the demoness snuggled comfortably in his embrace. At the same time, she also held the blindfolded little fox.

When they had left, the big demoness had been a bit resistant, but now, she wished he could hold her even tighter.

Immortal Miao Feng gently bit her lip, feeling an unparalleled experience, a mixture of comfort and warmth.

Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder if it's Lu Xun's special physique that made him so irrestiable to demon women. After all, both she and Xuan Yin had succumbed to him. She thought about this while feeling a bit ashamed.

Ah, this damned little thief!

The big demoness was almost going mad. Her millennia-old heart that had finally found it's love was pounding uncontrollably.

At the same time, Lu Xun, who was up to no good, wore a mischievous smile on his face. He couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of the world. Why was it that among demonesses, the little fox was so ordinary, while the other two were…

However, Lu Xun didn't go too far in his thoughts. He quietly hugged the slender waist of the big demoness, pulling her closer into his embrace. His thoughts began to wander.

From today onward, he would have to face a three-way struggle. He didn't know if he could stabilize the situation. These three demonesses were not to be underestimated. The big demoness was a bit domineering and had a strong personality. The little demoness was eager for exclusive intimacy and was possessive. Finally, the smallest demoness was the most jealous among the three and was eager to have his children .

Thinking about this, Lu Xun sighed deeply, his face solemn.

After two hours, they finally returned to the courtyard halfway up the mountain. Immortal Miao Feng put the little fox down on the ground and then gently pushed Lu Xun with her hip, who was behind her. She immediately waved her hand, causing the phantom flying sword to disappear.

Glaring at him with faint anger and shame on her face, she simply turned and left without looking back.

"Huh?"

"Where's Master?" The little fox removed the blindfold and found that her Master was gone. She looked at Lu Xun in askance.

"She left. Went back to her room."

Hearing this, the little fox instantly clung to Lu Xun like a koala.

"Hehehe. I can finally monopolize you," the little fox said happily. She wrapped her slender arms tightly around his neck and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"You little troublemaker." Lu Xun held the little fox in a princess carry.

Her lively eyes were filled with affection as she gazed at him, somewhat melancholy. She said, "Master wants me to cultivate diligently. I won't be able to come and listen to stories every afternoon from now on."

"Don't worry," Lu Xun reassured her. "I'll talk to your Master and make sure you have an hour every afternoon to listen to the stories."

"Really?" The little fox asked excitedly. Then, she added a condition seriously, "During that hour, only I can be there. Sister Xuan Yin can't."

"Alright, alright," Lu Xun hastily agreed. "During that hour, I'll only accompany you."

They had just arrived home, and she was already jealous. Lu Xun was feeling a bit pained and helpless at the moment.

"Hehehe," the little fox laughed contentedly. She hugged Lu Xun's neck tightly and couldn't help but kiss his cheek again, mumbling, "In the evening, when my sister comes to your room to study, I want to come too. As for the reason, I've already figured it out – I'll be sister's study partner."

Study partner? Isn't it clearly being a third wheel?

Lu Xun carefully examined the little fox in his arms and asked without much patience, "Are you really coming as a study partner, or are you using that as an excuse to keep an eye on me your sister?"

"I… I…" The little fox blushed, her face red as she replied, "I'm afraid you'll be led astray by my sister."

"Thank you for caring about me so much," Lu Xun said, feeling both amused and helpless.

Afterward, the little fox snuggled in Lu Xun's arms for a while before reluctantly returning to her own room, leaving him sitting quietly in the hall, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, in a secret cave on the back mountain:

A graceful woman emerged, her skin as white as snow, her eyes as clear as water. Her curvaceous figure exuded a cold air, but within that icy demeanor was a seductive charm that could captivate souls.

"I didn't expect to come out of seclusion this early," the little demoness Xuan Yin stood at the cave entrance, her expression filled with longing.

"I wonder…"

"Has my beloved missed me?"
