Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

Chapter 323 – Chaos and Back

Mei stared at Aiko dumbfounded. "Could you not rate everything about me?" She pinched her cheek gently.

"And where did these guys come from?" Mei was no longer surprised that Aiko would be able to call down Immortals.

"From a cave." Aiko replied, shocking Mei.

"Eh?" Mei smirked. "So those guys got killed." She laughed with glee.

"You have died too if you are here!" The Three-Legged Crow snorted unhappily.

"Hehehe~" Mei was giggling at him, since she knew that they were not her opponents as long as they didn't have their bodies.

"Stop laughing! This is a serious situation! The Golden Palace wants to lock down the Immortal World!" The Three-Legged Crow yelled at Mei.

Mei shrugged while kicking away the perverted turtle. 'That is definitely concerning, but...' She glanced at Aiko. "There shouldn't be a problem." Mei chuckled darkly.

The Mythical Beasts noticed that glance, but they did not put Aiko into their eyes. Mei had much better plans and they would definitely not rely on a juvenile who had just left their mother.

"But it would not be a bad idea to make you into pets..." Mei narrowed her eyes and chuckled sinisterly.

"You can't be serious?!" The Black Tortoise yelled out.

Mei picked up the small Aiko. It seems like Aiko took good care of her body since she could not smell anything foreign. It was quite the opposite as Aiko felt like she was squeaky clean, but that was impossible, that lazy tortoise would never use [Clean] on others!

"How about it? Would you want any of them as pets?" Mei treated Aiko like a sweetheart, nudging her to say yes.

Aiko paused and then discreetly smirked. "I don't want them!" She yelled out, startling Mei.

"They burned my feet and were mean to me!" Aiko made a similar sinister expression to what Mei always did.

"Oh? Is that so?" Mei turned towards the Mythical Beasts and smiled sinisterly.

Normally, she would not be their match, but that is only if they had their physical bodies. Now that they are just Beast Cores with Souls, Mei would be able to easily defeat them.

She licked her lips. "What do you have to say in your defence?" Mei chuckled with greedy eyes. It was obvious that she would rob them blind in the name of 'protecting her Mate'.

The Three-Legged Crow shrunk, since he already knew what those eyes meant, but that dumb lazy turtle did not know.

"I have many Treasures that she could use!" The Black Tortoise was greedy to become Mei's Contracted Beast.

"Then show us, if Aiko doesn't like them, then~" Mei licked her lips. She would munch on his Soul and share it with Aiko if needed.

The Black Tortoise shivered like the true pervert he was. "I have..."

A Treasure that protects someone against the Tidal Waves of the Immortal World.

A Treasure that amplifies Heavenly Lightning.

A Treasure that allows you to gather more Water Qi.

"I don't really like them..." Aiko said. "The first one can only be used in the Immortal World, the second one... well we both know what would happen if I had that." Aiko and Mei shook their heads at the same time. "The last one... I only have a bit of Water Affinity, but I don't have any other Techniques than [Clean]. Not to mention, I was banned from using that one!" Aiko pouted.

"That's only natural, your clean is too harsh to use on living bodies." Mei shook her head.

"Tsk." Aiko clicked her tongue.

"Don't click your tongue at me!" Mei pinched Aiko.

*Poof*

A moment later, Aiko transformed into her big form.

"..." Aiko gazed at Mei holding her in her arms.

"..." Mei was flabbergasted at the timing.

"Do you still want to pinch me?" Aiko was bigger, so instead of pinching cheeks, Mei was going to pinch something else...

Mei wanted to throw her away, but Aiko would have none of that and hugged Mei's face.

"You-!" Mei was completely speechless at Aiko and her daring demeanour, especially in front of those old geezers.

Aiko kept hugging Mei until she was bitten.

"Auch!" Aiko glared at Mei and she glared back.

"You deserve it, come here!" Mei started to chase Aiko, while Aiko was running away.

"They completely forgot about us..." The Three-Legged Crow felt humiliated somehow. He was always revered and never ignored, yet those two now completely forget about their existence!

"I know right..." The Black Tortoise voiced his opinion. "I'm so damn jealous! I wish she would hug me!"

The Three-Legged Crow looked at him, completely speechless and disbelieving of what he heard. "Are you serious?"

"They looked so soft and her legs were so squishy..." The Black tortoise looked like he was in some kind of dream when something hit his shell.

"Agh! Who dares-" The Black Tortoise snapped out of his dream and was livid, but...

"Shut up!" Aiko shouted and hammered her flag under the turtle's shell.

"AGH!" The Black Tortoise screamed and spasmed as Aiko kept running from Mei.

"Stop right there!" Mei shouted at Aiko.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"No! You will bite me again!" Aiko retorted and kept running. Mei was unable to approach her thanks to the somewhat trained and ridiculous Divine Sense.

"I won't bite you!" Mei glared at Aiko.

"Who would believe that if you glare like that?!" Aiko kept running at her top speed.

"..." Meanwhile, the Grandpa Dragon was watching this while tinkering with another Beast Core. 'They completely forgot about my existence...' He was having an existential crisis.

...

"What did I miss?" The Blood Fox returned to the camp, but it didn't look like anything changed with her body.

"Mei bit Aiko again." Yuxi replied while munching on jerkies.

"Oh..." The Blood Fox was already used to this sight, but there was something that bothered her. "What about them?" She pointed at the small, but strange Beasts.

"Aiko found their Beast Cores and Grandpa is letting them free, but basically-" Yuxi and Wanshu took turns to explain what was happening.

"Huh... Aiko can find anything at this point, huh?" The Blood Fox sighed, shaking her head.

"Not to mention, you got closer, too." The Blood Fox narrowed her eyes as she smelled the sweet scent of temptation.

Wanshu was currently sitting on the ground with spread legs, while Yuxi was lying on Wanshu's body like it was some kind of nice body pillow. Wanshu had her hands wrapped around Yuxi's waist and Yuxi fed both of them as they watched the drama unfold.

"Just a bit." Yuxi blushed and looked away, but Wanshu bit her ear, since she felt neglected.

"Wanshu!" Yuxi cried out.

"Yes, dear~?" Wanshu played innocent, as she nuzzled into Yuxi's neck nook.

Yuxi looked away, she had a weak spot against her Dao Companion, so she would indulge her for the time being.

"So when are you leaving the team to make babies?" Aiko shouted as she passed near them.

Both of them choked and the Blood Fox laughed at them. It was nice to be back, but Aiko had a strange expression.

Aiko paused her steps and Mei caught her.

"Are you not running away?" Mei narrowed her eyes as she held Aiko.

"The Blood Fox is back." Aiko narrowed her eyes, she didn't care about this chase any more since it seemed like a scolding should take place.

"The Blood Fox changed, we need to scold her!" Aiko proclaimed, which startled Mei.

"Why should we scold her, she chose that-" Mei explained her reasoning, but Aiko munched on her hand.

"Ah?!" Mei was speechless.

"She can't decide her path if she doesn't have any information about it!" Aiko proclaimed. "You are both in for a scolding! That includes you two and Grandpa too and while I'm at it, I will also scold those two perverts!" Aiko pointed at the Beast Cores at last.

Everyone was dumbfounded and didn't know what they should do.

A rough wind suddenly picked up around them.

"Ah! Finally got it." The Dragon wiped the non-existent sweat as he unsealed yet another Beast Core.

The wind was rough and it felt like it would become even rougher, but then-

"Enough!" Aiko roared and the wolf tripled in size. It was salivating at everyone, especially at the Tiger that was making a ruckus.

"Meow?" The White Tiger played innocent as we suddenly rolled on his back exposing his belly. The winds also naturally died down.

"Everyone sit down. You are in for a scolding." Aiko said sternly.

It felt like she was a completely different person, with authority out of this world.

Everyone huddled together and Aiko started to berate them, especially the newcomers and the Blood Fox.

...

......

.........

After two days and several transformations, Aiko finished and the wolf went to sleep. Everyone was shocked out of their mind that Aiko was able to speak for so long without rest, not to mention her words were overly harsh.

The Blood Fox had her head low, while the Mythical Beasts turned into cute pets from the barrage of mean words from Aiko.

"Phew!" Aiko wiped her forehead. She felt so relaxed after finally riding their asses about their attitude.

"The Blood Fox will be dealt with later, but you lazy, perverted, ignorant bastards will have to give me gifts or I will munch on you!" Aiko proclaimed.

"""Yes, ma'am!"""

They all answered in unison, the Black Tortoise in particular sweated buckets. 'She didn't like any of my gifts...'

'Sucks to be you, heh.' The Three-Legged Crow laughed through telepathy.

'Can someone update me on what's happening?' The White Tiger was the most confused, since he just got out of his prison, but was immediately scolded by a small Fox!

'Fine.' The Three-Legged Crow told the White Tiger about the update.

'We should go now, otherwise we won't be able to return to the Immortal World!' The White Tiger was upset that they would use his Sacred Body just to reinforce the Heavenly Gates!

'Heh, you are at her mercy.' The Three-Legged Crow showed no resistance when the tiny Fox petted him.

'Can't we just- Oh, there is Mei too?' The White Tiger was shocked that Mei was in the Mortal World. 'Did she die too?'

'We don't know yet.' The Three-Legged Crow shook his head.

'Then-' The White Tiger wanted to speak, but his body stiffened the moment the tiny Fox caressed his fur. 'Y-y-y-you-!'

'Hold your horses if you don't want to die.' The Three-Legged Crow snorted at him disdainfully, none of his fellow comrades knew about self-preservation!
