I Just Wanted to Live, but I Somehow Became Better Than the Main Character Chapter 81: White Fox

Seeing the white fox struggle intensely, Ye Yong realized sothing. He dispersed the beast-avoiding incense on him, which sowhat helped calm the white fox, though it remained vigilant, assuming a defensive posture.

Foxes were naturally clever, and spirit beasts were even more so. The white fox could tell that Ye Yong was not a hunter, but a human approaching it recklessly made it uneasy. However, the intense struggle simply allowed the toxin to more quickly flow throughout the body, causing the white fox to beco weak and unsteady. After a short while of maintaining the defensive posture, it collapsed.

Ye Yong approached the white fox. He had never used a cultivator’s beast trap before and didn’t even know how to disarm it. Forcing it open might injure the white fox. Soon, he noticed that there were simple formation patterns on it, so he spent 1000 transcend points in the shop to buy the Beginner’s Formation Explained, and a wealth of basic formation knowledge flooded his mind.

The Beginner’s Formation Explained gave Ye Yong the knowledge of a Level 2 Formation Master. Level 2 Formation Masters were considered to be at the entry point. Only Level 3 Formation Masters would be considered to have the ability to deal with formations independently.

Formations was the 2nd most difficult art among the six arts, with so people never able to learn it in their lifeti, similar to how so students struggle with advanced mathematics. Thus, a Level 2 Formation Master were more than just beginners in the eyes of ordinary cultivators. Even if one is not a prodigy, a Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivator could beat a Crystallization Realm cultivator by properly utilizing formations. Despite being young, Li Jun Xia was already a Level 5 Formation Master, which showed just how impressive his talent in formations was.

However, if Ye Yong spent another 60k transcend Points to buy the Interdiate and Advanced Formation Explanations, he could have the sa titles and would even surpass Li Junxia due to his younger age.

Cheating feels so nice- if only education was this easy.

After a brief mont of imagination, Ye Yong used his newfound knowledge to break the formations on the beast trap. Right now, he didn’t need such advanced formation knowledge, and his transcend points were limited. He wasn’t interested in competing for titles, either.

Once the beast trap was disard, the white fox tried to escape but lacked the strength and collapsed after a few steps.

Ye Yong shook his head, took out so healing powder, applied it to the white fox’s wounds, and fed it an antidote pill.

Soon, the white fox recovered a bit. It stared at Ye Yong for a while before lying on the ground, exposing its belly. Foxes belong to canidae, and canidae typically showed their belly as a sign of submission and friendliness.

Originally, Ye Yong was in a good mood, imagining sothing like white fox repaying kindness, but when he saw the white fox’s lower body, he lost interest.

After all that, it turned out to be a male.

Ye Yong had no intention of touching it, so he turned and left, saying as he walked, “If a beast trap is set up sowhere, there will be an unusual concentration of spiritual power, which is why spirit beasts are drawn to it. Don’t be so stupid next ti.”

It wasn’t until Ye Yong had completely disappeared from the path that the white fox let out a sigh of relief and stood up.

Rustling sounds ca from the nearby bushes, and another, smaller white fox erged, its fur softer and more refined.

“Brother, I was so scared you’d get caught,” the little white fox spoke in a human girl’s voice, with a look of terror in its eyes.

“So was I. Luckily, we t a kind human cultivator today.”

“If we had been lucky, you wouldn’t have stepped on a trap. I told you not to go there.”

“Haha. Overall, it’s still good. Everything’s fine now. You did well hiding and not coming out. After all, we don’t know his intentions.”

“Hmm-hmm.” The little white fox looked in the direction where Ye Yong had disappeared, sniffing the air to rember Ye Yong’s scent. It suddenly realized that Ye Yong’s scent seed to have returned, so it quickly hid back in the bushes and held its breath.

Ye Yong had indeed returned. The first thing he did was crouch down and hold the white fox’s shoulder. “Hey, do you have a sister or sothing?”

The white fox looked puzzled. Why do I feel like this human looks so much more excited than before?

It didn’t speak because its elders had taught it not to speak in front of humans as it might lead to trouble. Not knowing Ye Yong’s intention, the white fox shook its head.

“Is that so.” Ye Yong sighed regretfully, “But you are from the nearby spirit fox tribe, right? If you ever detect even a trace of human presence around your tribe in the future, don’t hesitate- imdiately relocate.”

The white fox almost asked why but managed to restrain itself.

After giving this nonsensical advice, Ye Yong left again.

“Brother, did he… did he find ?” The little white fox peeked its head out from the bushes.

“Probably not. I can’t figure out what he wants. Let’s go back; it’s not safe to stay here.”

The two white figures quickly disappeared from the spot.

“It indeed can’t be that coincidental” Ye Yong sighed.

Why did he co back after leaving? Because he suddenly recalled a certain mid-stage female character, Hua Ning Yan. Hua Ning Yan was originally a spirit fox who later beca a powerful demon cultivator, beautiful yet deadly. Countless human cultivators died at her hands, and she harbored intense hatred toward humans. The reason was that she had witnessed her older brother being captured by cultivators when she was young. At that ti, she had yet to transform into a human but had learned profound concealnt techniques, making her undetectable.

She followed them, wanting to rescue her brother, but failed to find the opportunity and instead witnessed her brother being cruelly killed and skinned. From that mont on, she hated humans.

Rembering the scent of her enemies, she returned to her tribe, worked hard to cultivate, and aid to avenge her brother. Before she could grow stronger, a group of human cultivators discovered their tribe, capturing and slaughtering them. She escaped using her concealnt techniques, but because of this event, she harbored a deep hatred for all humans, and she turned from a spirit beast into a specter beast.

With her innate talent and the drive from her hatred, she rapidly grew stronger in just a few decades, transforming from a Foundation Establishnt Realm spirit fox into a deadly Ascension Realm specter fox. She killed all her enemies and destroyed hundreds of human nations, towns, and villages hundreds of kiloters south of the Spirit Specter Mountain, not wanting to see any more humans.

Nearby sects sent cultivators to attack her, but none returned. This drew the attention of top sects, and powerful cultivators intervened personally. Hua Ning Yan was heavily injured and barely managed to escape and turn back to her original form, and coincidentally t the male lead. In a cliché event, the protagonist tended to her wounds and then left without asking for any reward, healing her heart.

Unfortunately, Hua Ning Yan had killed too many people and accumulated too many sins. The righteous path could not accept her, and she could only remain active in the shadows. During the invasion by mid-stage demons, because of the male lead, Hua Ning Yan chose to help humanity and died in battle. She was the only heroine to die in the novel.

According to the author, death was her best redemption and end. Like her na “Hua Ning Yan” (Flower Condense Smoke), the beautiful burned as the last fire, condensing into smoke.

The author also ntioned that if not for those events, Hua Ning Yan would have beco an immortal fox with her talent.

Ye Yong had just saved the white fox, and upon discovering it was male, lost interest in repaynt. He left but suddenly rembered Hua Ning Yan and returned to ask if the white fox had a sister. Unfortunately, the white fox shook its head, indicating it was not Hua Ning Yan’s brother. Otherwise, Ye Yong felt that he might have been able to alter Hua Ningyan’s future path.

Of course, there was still a chance. At least Ye Yong’s reminder about the tribe gave so hope. The only problem was whether or not he was in the sa tribe as Hua Ning Yin.
