At the mont Wu Long's lips covered Fen Baihu's, a small white fox with eight tails and pink eyes appeared in front of Luo Mingyu, surprising the beauties who were with her.
And yet, after a montary surprise, Luo Mingyu seed to have received a sound transmission from the fox, and smiled. Her pose very subtly changed as she adjusted her posture, and her eyes began glowing purple, her long jet black hair very slightly rising as if caught by a nonexistent wind, and a purple aura appearing around her, as everyone felt her Dao Intent being unfolded to its full strength that she only could normally hold for a couple of minutes, with a much smaller radius.
The fox's pink eyes also glowed, as her tails unfurled and a pinkish aura along with milky-while ethereal mist appeared around her.
The two stared each other in the eyes for a few monts, and then both gradually returned to normal, as the white fox nodded, and turned to leave, turning into a mass of ethereal mist that dissipated right after.
"W-what was up with that?", Bi Rui asked in bewildernt.
While Luo Mingyu smiled, speaking with a very slight weariness in her voice, "It seems we will be welcoming a new Dao Sister soon"
"Eh? When did you teach her the technique?", Cao i raised her eyebrows in confusion, since Luo Mingyu only did so when it was basically confird one would be entering the Dao Family.
"Just now, you all saw it", Luo Mingyu chuckled.
"T-That fast?!", Feng Yi's eyes beca round, rembering how long it took her to learn it.
"Hahaha, Fairy Fe-... no, perhaps, already Sister Baihu, is a Celestial Fox, a being who can freely wander into your dream. It was quite easy to teach her through my Dao Intent directly, without the constraints of language", Luo Mingyu lightly laughed as so of the beauties around felt it was a bit cheating, since it was by no ans an easy technique to learn for any of them even with Luo Mingyu's full support.

Fen Baihu woke up in Wu Long's embrace, feeling tired, but also refreshed, as it seed that he cleaned her up and changed the bed. However, there was a far more overwhelming feeling of contentnt.
She froze for a mont, listening closely to the warm and fuzzy feeling, as well as the comfort of being in his arms. It was the first ti that she didn't part with him right after coming to her senses, choosing to snuggle into his embrace instead, with the feeling of indescribable happiness filling her mind and heart.
It was around the ti when Liang Yuhan beca Wu Long's woman... that Fen Baihu felt sothing was strange.
This was the first ti that she witnessed soone who was not his woman beco one. After all, even though Song Lingfei only shared bed with Wu Long after Fen Baihu joined them, they were already in a relationship before that.
Once she saw how Liang Yuhan blood right after uniting with him, witnessing the contrast of before and after, a strange feeling overtook her.
She wasn't able to get that face, that state of mind, that vibrant Soul frequency out of her mind.
At the sa ti, she noticed a pang in her own feelings, and once she noticed it, there was no unseeing it, as she started discovering her own emotions, and feelings.
'When was it?', she thought at the ti, wondering when was it that her view of Wu Long changed. When did she start unconsciously following him with her gaze or consciousness whenever he was nearby. When did his every move begin catching her attention, and every success brought her awe and... joy.
From a certain mont, that she could not decidedly point to, when he looked at her with that particular playful light in his eyes, she felt a tight feeling in her chest.
She realized that it wasn't just 'interesting' or 'amusing' to watch him. It was much more than that.
One by one, the constrains around her feelings were coming off, allowing her to finally see, and understand them.
The final straw was his reluctance to rely on her when it clearly made sense to.
She saw him gradually starting to rely a bit on his won on her very eyes, letting them lend their strength to him bit by bit.
Yet, he refused to do so with her. In fact, it was as if he was avoiding to inconvenience her. Sohow she really felt upset about that.
But more than that, it clearly set her apart from the others. And she knew what the difference was between those he allowed himself to lean on, and her. Which finally pushed her to face her own desires that she already subconsciously knew about, but avoided.
The deal with him no longer mattered to her as much.
She still wished to see the one who took away her adoptive family from her to die. And she was still determined to achieve that.
But it was no longer the defining factor in her relationship with Wu Long.
Her eyes opened, and she lted inside by the look in his, that t her right away. In fact, it seed like he was looking at her for a while.
'Ah, yes... this... this gaze... how I wanted to see it look at ', she snuggled closer to him again, her fox ears lightly tickling his chin.
A silly smile crept onto her lips, in fact she couldn't stop smiling.
At that mont, she rembered about the bond, and listening to her sensations, beca overjoyed at the feeling of being connected to him, a wondrous and very intimate bond that made her sohow feel even closer to him even though she was right in his arms.

As they lay in the bed and talked, last night's conversation ca to her mind, as her fox ears perked up.
"Hehe, since you didn't bargain for our change in relationship, I guess I can ask for sothing else in return for going along with that plan", she chuckled playfully.
"Heh, is that your play to try and get to do it?", he smiled, feeling that she was raising the possibility of placing a condition she wanted as a bait, so that it would be easier for him to ask for her help, since she 'would get sothing out' of it, "It seems you studied quite well"
"Tche, you could've just gone along with it", she made a 'sulking' look and then smiled with a sigh of defeat, at the sa ti not really surprised her plan didn't work.
"To be honest, when I said about 'constraining you' yesterday, I was talking about your actual physical movents", Wu Long smiled as his hand which reached beneath and around her to hold her close to him gently patted her shoulder, "If you're this closely related to the inner workings of the Valley, then your presence would always be required in the Sect, even when I travel away"
"Eh?", she turned a surprised look, since she took it as constraining her to him, and was quite upset about him not wanting to do that.
"I was thinking of how to solve this dilemma, which was why I didn't approach you to ask", he chuckled. as her cheeks turned rosy from the realization that her desperate act was basically born out of a misunderstanding.
At the sa ti, she was still glad, since if not for that it wasn't certain when she would have found courage to face her own feelings.
Even if he made moves from his side, no, especially if he made moves from his side, she would've likely be in denial, afraid to beco vulnerable.
Her mind then stirred with a renewed focus on the problem he described. And then, as her fox ears lightly twitched, she spoke with a hint of uncertainty, "Hmm, there might... be a solution..."
