“Young Master!”

“Headmaster!”

“Master!”

The Demon Wolf fell, and outside the courtyard, a large crowd had gathered, looking uncertainly at the mountainous corpse of the Demon Wolf and at Xu Yang, who stood alone on the corridor.

“Young Master…”

Having been stunned and lost in shock, Miss Xin Shisi was jolted awake, turned to look at Xu Yang, and was about to speak when her suppressed injuries acted up. The world spun, and she fell straight from mid-air.

Among the Xin Family’s Foxes, though she had the highest cultivation and the strongest power, there was still a significant gap between her and the Chu Family Wolf. Her desperate delaying tactics had caused her serious injuries and, furthermore, trying to hold on had only added to her trauma.

With the Demon Wolf dead and the dust settled, her mind relaxed, her body likewise relaxed, and her uncontrollable injuries naturally flared up.

Fortunately, a figure flashed by swiftly and caught her in his arms.

“Young Master!”

“Headmaster!”

Behind them, the Xin Family’s Foxes had also hurried over, and seeing the collapsed Demon Wolf in the yard and Miss Xin Shisi, unconscious in Xu Yang’s arms, they became worried: “Is Shisi alright…”

“She is just unconscious, nothing serious. I will heal her wounds, so there’s no need to worry.”

Xu Yang reassured them with a comforting voice, then turned to look at the Xin Family’s Foxes, who were disheveled and injured: “You all are injured as well, go and rest first. Later, I will send someone with medicine for your injuries.”

“Thank you, Young Master!”

Upon hearing this, the Xin Family’s Foxes all breathed a sigh of relief.

Elsewhere, the true disciples who had stayed at the academy also rushed over: “Master, this corpse…”

“The demon qi is too strong for you to handle.”

Xu Yang glanced at the wolf corpse and waved his hand, collecting it: “It’s over. You all can disperse now.”

“Yes!”

The crowd dispersed, and Xu Yang, carrying the unconscious Miss Xin Shisi, turned and walked toward his bedroom.

His steps were gentle, not jostling, yet the beauty in his arms became increasingly smaller and lighter.

By the time they reached the bedroom, the beautiful young girl had disappeared, leaving behind only a small white-furred fox lying quietly in the crook of his arm.

Xu Yang wasn’t surprised, but calmly sat down, took out a Spirit Pill and fed it to her, then activated the Life Scroll to dissolve the medicine’s power, healing the injuries within her body.

In this world, the demon species practice cultivation differently, unlike the demon beasts of the present Cultivation World.

In the real world, for a demon beast to completely transform into a human form, it must reach the Nascent Soul Realm.

In this world, however, kind Spirit Monsters with a heritage generally cultivate the “Supreme Yin Body Training Skill.”

The Supreme Yin Body Training allows them to use the power of Supreme Yin Moonlight to refine the Demon Body and transform into human form; they don’t need to reach the Nascent Soul Realm—merely the later stages of Qi Cultivation with accomplished mana are sufficient to transform.

This type of transformation is not an illusion but a genuine transformation. There is no difference from a real human body, and they can change their appearance, hide their aura, and avoid being hunted and killed by demons, monsters, and Evil Path cultivators. It is an essential Cultivation Technique for kind Spirit Monsters.

The only downside is that when seriously injured or dead, the Spirit Monster will revert to its original form.

But this is not a flaw of the technique, as even in the real world, Nascent Soul demon cultivators revert to their true form upon death.

At this moment, with Miss Xin Shisi returning to her fox form, it meant her injuries were very severe, possibly even damaging her foundation.

Fortunately, over the years, Xu Yang, with the nurturing of Cultural Qi and the aid of his Skill Traits, had cultivated many Spiritual Medicines, turning them into various Spirit Pills, and, coupled with the effect of the “Life Scroll,” was indeed sufficient to restore her to her original state.

After a while, when the cultivation session ended and the Spirit Pill’s power had taken effect, the little fox, who initially showed signs of pain, gradually relaxed her furrowed brows and fell into a stable slumber.

Xu Yang nodded, also lay down, embracing the white fox as he sank into a dreamscape.

A dream within a dream is, of course, a return to reality.

Just now, he had been asleep, dreaming back to the real world, attending to some matters.

After all, he had been here for more than twenty years. Even with a time difference of a hundredfold, more than two months had passed in the real world, and there were plenty of issues to address on the island.

Had it not been for the Demon Wolf’s attack, he would have slept for several more days.

Xu Yang drifted away into deep sleep, and the white fox also rested quietly in his arms, exuding a sense of tranquil beauty of the years.

In such a state, time was hard to grasp.

The white fox’s body trembled slightly, and a burst of radiance flickered, the glow of Supreme Yin Moonlight.

Within the glow, the fox form vanished, leaving behind only a breathtakingly beautiful young girl, her clothes gone, bare of all cover.

Time passed unknowingly in this state, until the young girl’s eyelids quivered and slowly opened, full of bewilderment.

“Young Master…!”

Miss Xin Shisi awoke to find herself lying in the arms of another, which initially startled her, but upon realizing it was Xu Yang, she calmed down.

Yet, she soon discovered something else, saw her unclothed self, and her face heated up rapidly. Flushed and not knowing what to do, she blushed deeply.

Although she had been “wed” into the Li Mansion for over a decade, serving occasionally with a touch of red sleeves, and attending to night-time matters, that was truly just adding the touch of red sleeves, assisting during studies and nothing more.

Their relationship had made no substantial advancement, and such openly intimate encounters were utterly unprecedented.

Therefore, her panic was understandable.

In turmoil, Miss Xin Shisi was about to get up and dress.

But looking at the soundly sleeping Xu Yang on the bed, a capricious thought stopped her in her tracks.

The “lessons” from her elder sisters haunted her mind, making the embarrassed little fox’s face turn even redder, as if she would bleed.

In the end, she mustered great courage, tentatively lay back down, and curled up in the nook of his arms. She trembled as she made contact, and then gradually pressed closer, finally resting snugly against him.
