Chapter 86: Collecting a Little Interest~
***
“Little Sprout, thank you for staying with me…”
In the blank space, Lin Muyu clearly felt the tearing pain in her body gradually fading away bit by bit.
But even so, the huge void in her heart continued to spread, feeling empty and hollow.
It was as if something extremely important had been forcibly stripped away, making even breathing feel heavy.
Little Sprout gently nuzzled the curled-up Lin Muyu with its head, the soft touch bringing wordless comfort.
“Little Sprout, can you stay with me forever…”
Lin Muyu’s eyes were as empty as an unfathomably deep cold pond, her gaze blankly staring at the nothingness ahead.
Her voice was so flat it carried not a ripple of emotion, as if all feelings had been drained away, leaving only a numb shell speaking.
Little Sprout bent down again, the motion larger than before, as if nodding vigorously in agreement.
But suddenly, colorful halos began rippling around its body, flowing gently like melting rainbows, tenderly enveloping Lin Muyu completely.
“Little Sprout, I’m suddenly so sleepy…”
Lin Muyu’s voice grew lighter and lighter. Maintaining her curled position, she slowly buried her head in her knees.
Long eyelashes cast faint shadows beneath her eyelids as her breathing gradually became steady and prolonged, sinking deeply into slumber.
The rainbow halo gently swayed above her head, slowly taking the form of a girl’s blurred silhouette.
Her slender arms lifted, gently stroking Lin Muyu’s hair over and over.
“Good night~”
A whisper as light as a falling feather dissipated in the blank space.
…
Su Wanqing caught sight of Xiao Bai’s suddenly narrowed eyes and felt her heart skip a beat, thinking to herself that Ye Fan was in for it this time.
Sure enough, right after Xiao Bai finished speaking.
Her six fluffy tails instantly stood upright, then gave a gentle push backward.
Before long, her figure dissolved like a water drop merging into a lake, vanishing from Su Wanqing’s sight in a flash.
Watching the rippling spatial waves in the air before her, Su Wanqing couldn’t help but widen her eyes, murmuring:
“So this fox is actually this powerful?”
Thinking back to how Lin Muyu had pleaded with her to keep Xiao Bai, she couldn’t help but blush.
At the time, she had thought it was just an adorable little pet. Now it seemed she had misjudged completely.
“Where is that guy now?” Xiao Bai looked around within the spatial dimension.
She had only seen Ye Fan a few times, and that was because Lin Muyu had specifically reminded her to pay attention to this man.
She remembered back then, Xiao Bai had looked at Ye Fan with disdain.
Thinking to herself that he was just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, hardly worth her attention.
Never would she have imagined that this seemingly unremarkable Foundation Establishment cultivator would dare to boldly provoke that killing god’s disciple.
Though Xiao Bai didn’t know exactly which peak Ye Fan lived on, this wasn’t difficult for her at all.
At worst, she’d just check each peak one by one.
With her current mastery of spatial arts, who in this Qinglan Sect could detect her presence except for that person on Xinlian Peak and in the forbidden grounds?
In just a short while, Xiao Bai had already silently searched through several mountain peaks.
“Senior Brother, what about the payment you promised?”
Ji Jiaying deliberately pitched her voice higher as she spoke to the man whose mouth was twitching slightly.
Then she threw him a coquettish wink, her tone carrying a hint of persistence.
“Tonight, okay, Xiao Ying…”
Ye Fan felt his stomach churning. This woman’s appearance had never appealed to him to begin with.
Yet she clung to him like a piece of gum every day, with seemingly inexhaustible energy.
At first, Ye Fan had found it fresh and exciting, but as time went on, only endless irritation remained.
But this woman still had her uses, so Ye Fan couldn’t completely shake her off just yet.
“Elder Feng, how many more times is this going to take!”
Ye Fan could only suppress his anger internally, asking Elder Feng with annoyance.
“Soon, soon.”
Elder Feng’s voice carried obvious dismissiveness, sounding absent-minded.
“No way, you promised me!”
Ji Jiaying, who had been laughing like a blooming flower, suddenly darkened, her tone turning ice-cold.
“Don’t forget, I have dirt on you~”
“This woman actually dares threaten me?” Ye Fan cursed silently, his face turning ashen.
“Fine, fine.”
Despite being extremely unwilling, he could only reluctantly agree.
After all, making this woman disappear completely wasn’t the right time yet.
Anyway, all women looked the same once he closed his eyes. He could just think about other women in his head…
Ye Fan gritted his teeth secretly, forcibly suppressing his discomfort.
“Found him! Hehe, what are they about to do?”
In an unnoticed corner, a snow-white fox quietly poked its head out, its lively eyes full of curiosity.
The moment she saw Ye Fan’s face, Xiao Bai felt inexplicably disgusted, as if looking at something filthy.
“Are these two about to…?”
Seeing the two people gradually moving closer, Xiao Bai’s eyes widened as a thought occurred to her.
This is…
Adult content?!
Well, for the fox clan, this kind of thing was actually quite common.
Some foxes in the fox clan belonged to the charm school, deliberately integrating into human society.
They cultivated various seduction techniques, relying on absorbing men’s yang energy to advance their cultivation.
Though Xiao Bai belonged to the other school that focused on cultivating their true form.
But having grown up surrounded by such things, she understood the charm school’s techniques somewhat.
Watching the two people’s movements, Xiao Bai’s eyes rolled as a mischievous idea suddenly popped into her head.
“Hmph, let’s collect a little interest first.”
Instantly, Xiao Bai’s six fluffy tails gently intertwined, twisted into a snow-white rope, and gave a pull through the air.
An extremely fine golden essence was slowly drawn out from Ye Fan’s body, floating toward Xiao Bai like a gossamer thread.
The two people immersed in passion were completely unaware of this.
As the golden essence was continuously drawn out, it gradually gathered into a dove-egg-sized golden orb in front of Xiao Bai, emitting a faint glow.
“No way, how does this guy have so much vital essence? It’s probably several times more than an ordinary man?”
Xiao Bai was somewhat surprised, then decided to increase her efforts. Her six tails suddenly doubled in size, and the drawing speed increased dramatically.
At this moment, Ye Fan on the bed suddenly felt something was wrong with his body.
‘What’s happening? Why do I suddenly feel powerless…’
Ye Fan, who had been working hard, couldn’t help but furrow his brow, unease rising in his heart.
Even Ji Jiaying, who had been lost in pleasure, noticed something was wrong and turned her head with dissatisfaction to look at Ye Fan.
“Hehehe, even the Seed of Vital Essence has been drawn out. Looks like I didn’t learn this forbidden technique for nothing~”
Xiao Bai stared at the seed-shaped object emanating rich golden essence before her, her small face full of smugness.
This vital essence drawing technique was indeed a forbidden art for ordinary foxes, as being discovered by humans could easily invite fatal disaster.
But who was Xiao Bai?
She was quite confident, people in this world who could catch her could probably be counted on two hands.
“What’s wrong with you?!”
Ji Jiaying’s face instantly turned ashen, the fury in her voice nearly exploding.
“I… I…”
Ye Fan looked down at his gradually wilting member, completely stunned.
An indescribable terror instantly gripped him.
This was the key to improving his strength!
“Just get hard…” Ye Fan’s voice carried a hint of desperation.
Watching this sudden farce unfold, Xiao Bai secretly held back laughter in the corner, thinking to herself:
“This is just the interest. I’ll come collect the rest in a few days~”
She didn’t know that this seemingly playful action meant everything to Ye Fan.
She only knew it concerned a man’s dignity.
At least now, Ye Fan’s dignity was shattered all over the floor.
For cultivators, broken hands and feet were indeed easy to heal.
Even if that thing was severed, there were ways to reattach it.
But if the most fundamental Seed of Vital Essence was drawn away, what remained would only be a useless decoration.
“Ye Fan, are you deliberately trying to spite me!”
Ji Jiaying’s face was cold enough to drip water, the corners of her mouth twitching constantly, looking like she might go mad at any moment.
“I… I didn’t…”
Ye Fan stared blankly below, his entire body frozen as if struck by lightning.
His mind went completely blank, leaving only endless panic…
“Elder Feng! What the hell is happening!”
He roared frantically in his mind.
But Elder Feng gave no response, because at this moment he was trembling all over, sensing a familiar aura…
