The Strongest Fox-Demon (14)

Frustrated by the thought of that woman, Bai Yi muttered, “I don’t know the name of that bitch! However, I do know that she’s surnamed Jiang, has a servant girl with her, and dresses in a wretched manner.”
“Wretched yet brings along a servant girl?” Li Yufeng repeated with a blank expression. Even so, he figured that it couldn’t be anyone else but the prefectural magistrate upon hearing the surname, Jiang. After all, there could only be so many people capable of bringing a servant girl around, further considering the fact that it was someone surnamed Jiang. As such, the outcome of this situation could very well invite disaster. He then said to Chu Xiang, “I’ll snoop around to inquire more about the matter. Meanwhile, the two of you ought to keep a low profile. You are now in the city, not the countryside. Care not to do anything that would expose yourselves.”
While dodging the grasp of Zhuang Liu, Bai Yi asked Chu Xiang, “Can we trust that man? Why is he deadset on trying to help us? Didn’t you just meet him yesterday?”
“Perhaps the work of fate? No matter, if he wants to snoop around, then just let him be. He lives in the city and knows much more about it than us. Besides, it only works to our benefit to learn more about it too.”

Slightly annoyed by Zhuang Liu, Chu Xiang jumped onto her shoulder and used it to leap onto the roof.
Her sudden actions startled Zhuang Liu! Initially exhausted from failing to catch the two foxes and now shocked by Chu Xiang, she then remembered that they were wild foxes at the end of the day. Not only did they ruin the dress of a young lady, but they even made her as tired as she was now.
Looking at Chu Xiang and Bai Yi, she heaved a weary sigh before dropping the cage and leaving.
Irked, Bai Yi uttered, “What’s her problem?! How annoying! If she weren’t the mother of my benefactor, I would have long since dealt with her!”

“Had that been the case, you would never have come across her.”
Never having cared about the mother and son of the Zhuang Family, Chu Xiang immediately changed the topic after seeing Bai Yi’s frustration.
“How do you think we should prepare the two Silver Carp? After recovering from our injuries, we’ll also have to get revenge on those demonic cultivators! Seeing how we have yet to figure out their motives, we’ll have to ask Li Yufeng when he comes back. That’s right, he mentioned that his house is much better than this one. I’ll get ready and head over to check it out. If it’s more convenient to cultivate there, we won’t need to stay here anymore. As for your benefactor, you can just help him out whenever he comes across any trouble. What’s the point of staying here while feeling frustrated every day?”
At that moment, Bai Yi peered through the gaps in the window. Looking at Zhuang Yulang working hard studying, she slumped onto the ground and said, “But I’d hate to part with my benefactor.”

At the end of the day, she was a demon — and not a weak one in the slightest. So how could she bear to be mistreated? Downcast, she continued, “Xiang’er, let’s just focus on making a full recovery tonight. We’ll then get our revenge on those demon cultivators before discussing this any further. Since my benefactor is busy studying, let’s avoid doing anything that would disturb him. What do you think?”
“Sure! We’ve already spent so many days recovering. I’m getting so lazy that I feel like doing nothing but sleep for the rest of the day. So let’s go have some fun!” Chu Xiang said in exhilaration. After all, what kind of spirit demon doesn’t enjoy fighting? How could they possibly pass up on the opportunity to get into a fight and assert their dominance over the territory?
Just as they made such plans, Li Yufeng finally came back and told them, “The two of you must act carefully. The young lady you messed with was the eldest daughter of the prefectural magistrate. Luckily, she wasn’t the daughter that he pampers the most. Had she been the treasured daughter of his first wife, he would’ve definitely investigated the matter thoroughly.”
Bai Yi knitted her brows and asked, “What about his daughters? So what if he’s the prefectural magistrate? What can they even do to us?”

Leaping from the top of the walls into the courtyard, he crouched down and stared at Chu Xiang as if asking her why the white fox was so naive.
Chu Xiang tilted her head in response. Bai Yi had been living in the mountains her entire life. Knowing little to nothing about the outside world, she was no different from a mere child at that point.
As such, Li Yufeng changed the approach he took to explain the situation.
“You’re a cultivator while he’s an ordinary person. Of course, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to you. But what about your benefactor? Since they know that you’re the pet fox of Scholar Jiang, they could very well settle the account and get their revenge on him instead. As a prefectural magistrate, making things difficult for a scholar is as easy as flicking his finger. You better not think about threatening him either. Despite getting to such a high position, there are naturally still other more influential individuals above him. Knowing that, would you still dare to teach him a lesson? For such an insignificant matter?”
