I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 97 - 9: Six-Tailed Fox (4/5)

At the same time, in an unknown mountain forest far away.

"Ah!"

A snow-white fox, with a touch of vermilion only on its brow and ear tips, let out a scream.

This fox was several times larger than an ordinary fox, and had six tails behind it.

But when she screamed,

those six dancing tails made her look more like a mad demon.

"Who? Who the hell is that!?"

In her pupils was the reflection of a red-haired, three-eyed child clad in a red coat.

The voice of the Six-tailed Fox was extraordinarily sharp at this moment, while the giant spider opposite her burst into laughter.

"Haha... cough... haha..."

The laughter mixed with coughs came from the Spider Queen, who seemed desperately miserable but couldn’t stop laughing.

Nowadays, the once majestic Spider Queen had lost six of her spider legs, and a penetrating scar had destroyed her three compound eyes on her face.

Yet, the laughter of the Spider Queen was still filled with excitement—a vindictive excitement.

"It’s you! You deliberately lured me there!"

Realizing instantly, the Six-tailed Fox immediately fixed her gaze on the Spider Queen.

Because it was based on the information from the Spider Queen that she sent a strand of her Divine Soul along the water vein to that reservoir.

"Cough, cough... I didn’t lie to you, didn’t you find what you were looking for there?"

Hearing the Spider Queen’s words, the Six-tailed Fox became even angrier.

"But you didn’t tell me that a Human-faced Fish was hiding an Innate Divine behind it!"

Facing the angry questioning of the Six-tailed Fox, the Spider Queen’s continual laughter was filled with mockery.

"Well, you didn’t ask me, did you?"

Before the Spider Queen’s words had even dropped, a cold light cut off her remaining two legs.

Rumble...

With her legs lost for support, the Spider Queen slammed heavily onto the ground, and her corrosive blood instantly polluted the earth vein of this area.

"That red-haired child, who is he?"

With a face like frost, the Six-tailed Fox walked in front of the Spider Queen, her voice filled with murderous intent.

Nobody would doubt that if the Spider Queen once again delivered misleading information, the Six-tailed Fox would not hesitate to kill her decisively.

"Haha... cough... who is he?"

"He is the Prophet of the Mountain People, a descendant of the witch from a thousand years ago..."

"You came to the Hundred Lands Mountain Range to find the witch’s legacy, yet you’re unaware of even this basic information, it’s truly laughable."

Even though her body was riddled with injuries and she was in a sorry state, the Spider Queen showed no sign of conceding in her words.

"You’re doomed, that Red-haired Ghost God will surely not let you go!"

"So what if you come from the Central Province? So what if you come from Great Xia?"

"That Red-haired Ghost God forced the Five Directions Gods to retreat with just one swing of the sword, do you think you are stronger than the Five Directions Gods?"

...........................

"So this is the physical embodiment of that trace of spirituality?"

As Li Boyang crushed that trace of spiritual light, what appeared in his hand was a white strand of fur.

The fur was crystal clear, shiny and smooth, clearly well-maintained.

Definitely from a fox that cherishes its fur.

"Fox fur?"

At this moment, Xiluo, who appeared on Li Boyang’s shoulder at some point, also poked her head out.

"Is the troublemaker this time a fox?"

Lounging quietly on Li Boyang’s shoulder, Xiluo said this while glancing at the Red Fish who had regained its freedom.

As the black giant hand dispersed, the Red Fish returned to the reservoir below.

Exposing only a face, she cautiously scrutinized Xiluo.

After all, having mixed in this area for so long, the Red Fish certainly knew who the big players were.

"It seems so, and it appears to be a fox from outside."

Looking at the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor facing up in his other hand, Li Boyang nodded, confirming Xiluo’s words.

"Red Fish, can you now tell me what exactly happened?"

When Li Boyang lowered his head to look at the Red Fish underwater, she hastily averted her gaze and then replied in a reserved tone.

"Great Destiny, I have always followed your orders to guard this reservoir."

"But as you know, I have a penchant for snacking, so I often go upstream to catch some Glutton Fish..."

"This fox fur was initially hidden inside a Glutton Fish’s belly, and it wasn’t until I swallowed it that I realized something was wrong."

Her voice carried an indescribable frustration, and her explanation left Li Boyang and Xiluo both dumbfounded.

"So, all this happened because of your gluttony?"

"If we hadn’t arrived in time, would you have wreaked havoc on the entire reservoir by now?"

Unable to hold back, Xiluo asked a question.

This instantly left the Red Fish so ashamed she couldn’t stand it, instinctively blowing a series of bubbles.

"Mountain God’s Grandma... I’m not truly that greedy..."

"It’s all that sly fox’s fault, who would expect a Glutton Fish to have such a thing hidden inside its belly?"

Listening to the Red Fish’s defense, Li Boyang couldn’t help but chuckle wryly, but he could understand her gluttony.

After all, if not for his gluttony, he wouldn’t have encountered this Human-faced Fish.

Moreover, that fox’s methods were indeed cunning.

If someone else encountered a similar situation, they likely wouldn’t have performed much better than the Red Fish did.

"Knows how to set traps by exploiting human weakness..."

"That fox might be far cleverer than we imagined and probably a lot more patient too."

Without long-term observation, the fox couldn’t possibly have known the Red Fish’s preferences and laid this trap accordingly.

Now the question is, what exactly does that fox intend to do? And why target the Red Fish?

And most importantly, was the damage inflicted on the Mountain God Reservoir intentional or accidental?

In the absence of sufficient information, even with the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor, Li Boyang could only divine that the fox came from far beyond the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

Aside from this, the only thing Li Boyang could be sure of was that the fox would bring tremendous trouble to him.

This is a premonition from his Spiritual Sense and Primordial Spirit, and Li Boyang had no doubts about its accuracy and truthfulness.

"Alright! Troubles do love to come uninvited."

"Being able to foresee it in advance is still better than having to make up for it afterward."

Blinking her eyes, Xiluo decided to stop pondering the origins of the fox and instead asked about what she most wanted to know now.

"Red Fish, right? How did you meet this lad?"

"And how did you become the God of this reservoir? This reservoir was only recently established, after all."
