Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 229 - 8: Xiao White Fox (8)

The place where the carp spirit lived was quite beautiful, a small valley with a clear river inside it. In the center of the valley, there was a small building erected over the river, with the river flowing underneath. Surrounding it were peach blossoms, their petals falling onto the river’s surface, creating a truly beautiful scene.

Tao Hui quietly placed a large basin of bait into a wooden basin, letting it drift with the current toward the small building.

A little girl with two small braids, wearing a bright red dudou, lay in the wooden building, her eyes vacant.

It’s so hot, so thirsty, I really want to jump into the water.

But in recent days, she had encountered a fortuitous opportunity, feeling on the cusp of a breakthrough. She purposely trained herself in a dry place, even though cultivating in the water would have made it easier to break through. However, the inheritance she received required her to do so.

Why must I, a fish, endure such torment? What kind of broken cultivation technique is this? Argh, argh, argh, argh.

Eh, what’s that smell? So fragrant, I’m so hungry, I want to eat.

The little girl immediately got up, went to the window to look out, and suddenly her eyes lit up. She saw that wooden basin; it’s that, it’s that.

The little girl waved her hand, and the wooden basin flew up, caught in her hand.

The more she sniffed, the more fragrant it became.

This clearly isn’t a natural thing. Where did it come from?

The little girl suddenly leaped onto the roof of the wooden building, gazed around, and sensed her surroundings. There seemed to be no one, and no activity at all.

Heehee, since that’s the case, let’s begin!

The carp little girl, without any guard, reached out and grabbed a handful of bait, stuffing it into her mouth.

Mmm, mmm, delicious, really delicious, and it even has spiritual energy, how great.

But when she finished the entire basin and found it empty, she felt a bit disappointed. Why is it gone? I’m not full yet.

The little girl’s head became a bit dizzy, but a smile still lingered on her lips, and before long, she fell asleep.

In the distance, Cui Wenyu activated a magic artifact to conceal their presence. Seeing that the carp spirit had already lain down, both of them had gleaming eyes, it worked.

One must know that the bait contained a large amount of Joyful Intoxication Powder.

Joyful Intoxication Powder, as the name suggests, causes those who consume it to fall into a drunken stupor in extreme bliss, sleeping and filled with pleasant dreams.

Human cultivators discovered this elixir, refined it, and it is highly addictive.

At this moment, the carp spirit had already fallen asleep, dreaming of eating various delicious foods and swimming joyfully in the water, with a happy smile on her face.

Hidden in the shadows, Li Shuning sighed.

No matter what, she wouldn’t let these two succeed.

Li Shuning transformed back to her original form, which was a little Xiao White Fox.

As Tao Hui and Cui Wenyu approached the small building, Li Shuning leapt directly over.

She stood in front of the small building, quietly watching Tao Hui and Cui Wenyu.

Tao Hui, seeing the Xiao White Fox, was momentarily stunned. The next instant, an intense feeling of happiness surged through him.

This is that White Fox, the appearance is absolutely correct.

Those eyes are gray with a hint of light blue, very distinctive, and it’s something he specifically described.

With a carp spirit and a white fox, it would be perfect to capture both, wouldn’t it?

Tao Hui suddenly took out a drumstick: "Xiao White Fox, you’re really beautiful, would you like some drumstick?"

Li Shuning looked coldly at Tao Hui, without making a move.

Tao Hui felt a bit awkward.

Thinking for a moment, Tao Hui nudged Cui Wenyu and transmitted to him: "Wenyu, this is a Demon Fox, its cultivation is extremely powerful. If you manage to obtain the Demon Fox’s cultivation, your strength will improve."

"Ah, Hui, how do I obtain its cultivation?"

"Hehe, this Fox Demon can transform into a human form. You go and seduce her, as long as she falls for you and you become intimate, you can obtain her cultivation."

"Ah Hui, this doesn’t feel right. After all, it’s something she worked hard to cultivate, doing this feels not quite right."

"Wenyu, it’s a Demon Fox. When we encounter it, exterminating it is the righteous path, we’re simply doing it in a different way."

"Wenyu, you’re supposed to be the brightest genius in our sect, but now you’re being suppressed by Li Shuning and also by Zhang Yixuan. Are you really willing? Wenyu, I think you should be the strongest."

Cui Wenyu felt somewhat moved, hesitated when he thought of Li Shuning, "Ah Hui, what should I do?"

"Wenyu, believe in yourself, go flirt with that Demon Fox, she’ll definitely like you."

Just as Cui Wenyu was about to step forward, Li Shuning directly flicked her tail, picked up the carp little girl, and vanished in a flash.

Tao Hui was dumbfounded, how was this Demon Fox so formidable? How did she disappear?

Li Shuning was disinclined to toy with them anymore, and directly teleported away with the carp little girl.

Months later, Tao Hui and Cui Wenyu returned to the Qingyun Sect in sorry states.

Previously, they went in search of the Demon Fox, but were unable to enter the Fox Clan. When they went after the carp spirit, the carp spirit was saved by the Demon Fox.

Then Tao Hui took Cui Wenyu to various Secret Realms, only to find that not only were the items inside gone, but some of the traps or arrays had also changed, full of dangers.

It was Li Shuning’s doing; she thought about it and felt Tao Hui needed some lessons.

Yet, after all, he was the protagonist, and the protagonist’s halo protected them from dying in the Secret Realm. However, they returned to the sect in a terrible state, and during this journey, they only busied themselves running around and had no time to enhance their cultivation.

Zhang Yixuan, along with the junior brothers and sisters from the sect, gained some rewards instead.

After rescuing the carp spirit, Li Shuning sent her away. Upon waking her up, she informed her that someone had ill intentions towards her. She even showed her the wooden basin, asking her to carefully sense what was inside.

Prior to this, the carp spirit hadn’t gone into the water for several days due to her cultivation, and her state was a bit off, so she naturally hadn’t checked that item.

The carp spirit was startled, though being part of the Demon Clan, she trusted Li Shuning more.

Humans are indeed cunning, truly detestable.

After advising the carp spirit to be more careful, Li Shuning helped her find a new place to live and protected her during her breakthrough.

Afterwards, Li Shuning left.

The carp spirit was grateful, silently remembering the favor.

But she was furious with the two humans who had targeted her.

Li Shuning had already shown the appearance of these two through a spell to the carp spirit.

Moreover, the carp spirit had her own setups in the valley, just as Li Shuning had told her.

Upon returning to the sect, Li Shuning deliberately adjusted her cultivation to the first level of the Golden Core stage.

When the Qingyun sect members realized Li Shuning’s strength, it sparked yet another wave of admiration for her.

Cui Wenyu grew increasingly disheartened, and even started suspecting Tao Hui.

Why had Tao Hui suggested they go out together, and during this trip, they ended up getting the short end of the stick, even using up his life-saving cards?

There was no denying that resentment was a real feeling.

And Tao Hui was somewhat depressed, feeling like many things were increasingly deviating from what he imagined.

Moreover, he could sense the change in Cui Wenyu’s attitude towards him.

Tao Hui pondered for a moment and decided to shut himself away in seclusion.
