Do I Have to Be a Peerless Beauty After Reincarnating as a Fox Demon? Chapter 23 : Niece Su Xiao
The moonlight was slightly cold. Perhaps because the demonic beasts were searching for spirit herbs in other areas, or perhaps because they were following the Refined Spirits in pursuit of the half-demon, in any case, the Dread Wolf and the Armored Crocodile encountered no danger at all while consuming the herb. Even when the two of them opened their eyes again, Su Xiao had not moved at all.
Since Su Xiao did not move, Luo Yi did not dare move freely either. Although it had long wanted to leave, under Su Xiao’s intimidation it simply did not dare act rashly.
This must be the bearing of a true powerhouse, Luo Yi sighed inwardly. Even in the mountain range’s center, where demons ran rampant, there were not many strong beings with such presence as Su Xiao. Perhaps this was what a royal clan was like.
Su Xiao did not know Luo Yi’s thoughts. At this mont, she only felt a faint dizziness beginning to appear in her mind. She quickly realized this was likely a sign that her Soul Power was running low from maintaining the illusion body for too long. She had started with 15 points of Soul Power, and from the mont she transford until now, roughly half an hour had passed.
That ans each point of Soul Power can maintain the illusion body for about two minutes. By that calculation, maintaining it all day would require at least 720 Soul Power. Even accounting for Soul Power regeneration, the number could be slightly reduced, but for now, it’s impossible for to stay in human form permanently.
Su Xiao knew she couldn’t keep going like this. She had to make the most of the current situation.
“Alright. Your condition has stabilized for now. In the future, rember, don’t eat things randomly,” Su Xiao said calmly, applying the principle that illness enters through the mouth. She guessed demonic beasts were likely the sa.
“Thank you, Demon Envoy, for saving ! Such great kindness, this little wolf will never forget it. If there is a next life, I will be willing to serve you as an ox or a horse…” The Dread Wolf’s words of gratitude poured out endlessly.
At that mont, Su Xiao couldn’t help wondering whether this guy might also be a transmigrator. Of course, it was just a passing thought. If the wolf truly were the sa kind as her, it would have already exposed her trick. Still, this demon wolf really knew how to behave appropriately.
Su Xiao nodded inwardly in satisfaction. “As for serving in your next life, that won’t be necessary. I gave you the Purple Heart Grass because I have sothing I want you to handle.”
Su Xiao casually stated her purpose.
In Luo Yi’s eyes, however, this was further proof that the strong truly were different. It had already suspected that the Demon Envoy must have had so reason for giving the Purple Heart Grass to the Dread Wolf. Sure enough, the envoy stated her purpose openly afterward. This only made Luo Yi realize once again how great the gap was between itself and a true demon.
“Please give your instructions, my lord!” the wolf said imdiately, full of energy. In truth, it did not fear being given a task; it feared the Demon Envoy asking for nothing at all.
“I have a niece who is extrely mischievous. She originally ca out with to train, but recently, while I was cultivating and my attention was divided, she secretly ran off.”
Su Xiao carefully considered her wording.
Actually, I would prefer to say nephew, she thought inwardly. But obviously the little fox body I transmigrated into is the opposite of what I wanted. Even the slightest slip could cause irreparable consequences. I must be cautious, very cautious.
The Dread Wolf’s eyes imdiately lit up. A golden opportunity for advancent was right before it!
“Rest assured, Demon Envoy! In Mount Qi, I have many connections. Leave it to , I’ll definitely help you find your niece!” it hurriedly declared.
The Armored Crocodile stared blankly, unable to understand the connection between the envoy’s words and the wolf’s enthusiastic response.
Su Xiao controlled her illusion to show a hint of satisfaction. “That is exactly what I wanted your help with,” she admitted openly before continuing. “That girl has lived at ho for too long and developed a completely unruly temperant. She doesn’t take cultivation seriously either, her strength is as weak as tofu. It’s quite worrying. If you two find her, just deliver a ssage for .”
Hearing this, the Dread Wolf quickly asked, “What ssage would you like us to pass along, Demon Envoy?” It assud it would be sothing like a lecture for a younger generation.
Su Xiao took a deep breath and deliberately simulated an angry tone while delivering the line to the wolf. “Su Xiao, you brat! If you don’t break into the Refined Spirit realm this ti, don’t even think about taking you ho!”
Her words left the three demonic beasts and Refined Spirit staring blankly.
Since Su Xiao’s arrival, this powerful figure from the mountain center had always carried an air of calm indifference. Yet now she had actually shown such emotional fluctuation!
Luo Yi clicked its tongue. Unlike the demons living in the outer regions, the demon races in the mountain center often had clans and family structures. Naturally, dealing with troubleso juniors within the family could be exhausting.
Luo Yi even thought of itself—it was in a similar situation. Unless it beca a true demon, it would not be able to return ho.
After its mont of shock, the Dread Wolf quickly recovered. Unlike the crocodile, the wolf ca from a pack-based demon race and had its own clan. Thinking about its own circumstances, it suddenly felt a strange sympathy for the unseen young demon envoy.
“Yes, I understand!” the wolf said quickly. It certainly did not dare argue with the Demon Envoy. Its task was simple: find the young demon envoy and deliver the ssage. Compared to the generous reward of the Purple Heart Grass, this task was extrely easy. The Dread Wolf felt deeply grateful.
It seed the envoy had cald her anger. The Dread Wolf saw that she had already returned to her earlier calm and elegant deanor.
“Alright. You two may leave now.”
Su Xiao waved her hand lightly.
The Dread Wolf did not dare disobey. Pulling along the sowhat dim-witted Armored Crocodile, it hurriedly took its leave.
Before long, only Su Xiao and the green snake Luo Yi remained facing each other.
Looking at the scene with just the two of them left, Luo Yi would be lying if it said it wasn’t nervous. But at this point, it could only steel itself and deal with the situation.
“Luo Yi, do you know anything about the half-demon Bai Yiyi?” Su Xiao asked.
