"How was the interview?"
In the dining room, Long Tian and ng Lingxue were eating dinner.
No one spoke. The only sound in the dining room was the faint clink of utensils against porcelain, stretching the silence into sothing heavy.
"It was okay; with you recomnding , I had no problem," Long Tian chuckled.
He had done so research on his wife and was shocked.
She had single-handedly built her company into one of the industry’s giants. For the first ti, Long Tian truly understood the woman he had married.
"Also, thanks for the 100 million. Within a month, I will pay you back the money," Long Tian said.
ng Lingxue shook her head. She didn’t think Long Tian would be able to repay it.
"Okay." She had no interest in whether he paid it back or not. Her gaze remained indifferent.
After dinner, Long Tian entered his room, locking it as he began cultivating.
He sank into ditation, operating the Infinite Source Cannon and finding his consciousness in the Infinite Source Genesis Diagram.
Observing the diagram, he saw that another genesis ring had ford.
His consciousness trembled.
He went to the Genesis ring and saw an indistinct shadow floating in it.
He tried to figure out what the shadow was, and then he heard a loud, familiar scream.
A fox’s cry.
The scream tore through his consciousness like a blade, shattering his ntal form into fragnts.
At this mont, he saw the shadow’s pitch-black, bloody-red eyes. All it took was a glimpse, and his consciousness shattered.
Unknown to him, a strand of crimson light slipped into the depths of his mind... and vanished.
Long Tian opened his eyes, shocked by what had happened.
Even though he knew the shadow was a fox, what kind of fox was it?
His mind raced for answers.
At that mont, he suddenly felt sothing strange. When he checked his body, he found he had grown two fluffy white fox ears and two white fox tails waving behind him.
His eyes had completely changed into fox eyes.
His expression remained calm—but his heart sank. This wasn’t the first ti it had happened... and that was exactly the problem.
There were tis when he would completely transform into a white fox.
And the problem was that he couldn’t control the transformation.
It depended on his bloodline.
With it, he had been able to survive most of the ti in the forest.
But one thing he realized was that his bloodline wasn’t that of a white fox; he felt the white fox bloodline was more like a veil.
And the fox shadow confird his conjecture.
Long Tian imdiately tried to recall them as he had before, but he couldn’t.
It was the first ti this had happened, leaving him confused and unsettled.
This form posed a risk to his daily life.
He tried retracting them nurous tis until he succeeded, and in his mind, he found a shard of inherited mories from the Fox Bloodline.
As he absorbed the mories, vivid scenes flashed before him:
A black nine-tailed fox battling enemies.
A red nine-tailed fox spewing fire.
A snow-white nine-tailed fox standing on a mountain.
Those scenes flashed through his mind as a cultivation technique occurred to him.
Celestial Fox Art.
He absorbed all information about the Celestial Fox Art, and his body transford into a white fox the size of a cat.
Looking at the two tails behind him, he slowly closed his eyes and began cultivating the Celestial Fox Art.
A ripple of energy surged in the shadow fox’s genesis ring, and the shadow fox opened its red eyes.
A sharp, piercing scream erupted, and the shadow of a fox appeared behind him. It had nine tails, waving in the air.
This went unnoticed by Long Tian; his eyes remained closed.
In the Infinite Source Genesis Diagram, the shadow fox’s genesis ring blazed with fire, and a flaming tail appeared behind it.
Long Tian’s first tail began to burn with flas. The flas intensified.
They crackled, searing heat crawling over his skin. Within monts, the fire could have reduced the house to ashes.
Realizing the danger, he instantly halted the Celestial Fox Art.
Looking around, he saw no damage—only an increase in the temperature of the surroundings. He was relieved.
If he had continued, the house might have been destroyed, drawing unwanted attention.
He looked at the first tail behind him, and as he willed it, it burned with fire.
He had partially awakened the first elent: the fire elent.
It seed that for every tail he awakened, an elental affinity awakened with it.
Each tail carried a spark of elental power: the first burned with fire, the second promised another yet unknown.
That ant with the two tails, he could still awaken another elental affinity apart from the fire elent.
As much as he wanted to awaken it, he would have to wait until he found a quiet place... or create a formation to seal and conceal the effects. But he lacked the necessary materials.
Focusing his will, he drew the fire back into his first tail, cooling the room. Only then did he revert to his human form.
He had to find a way to obtain those resources, and from his mories, he knew their worth—which ant a huge amount of money would be required to get them.
KNOCK! KNOCK!!
The door was knocked, breaking him from his thoughts. Long Tian slowly stood up, using his Mystic Dragon Eye to pierce through the door, and saw Aunt Anna standing with a worried expression.
He opened it, and when she saw Long Tian unhard, she felt relieved.
"Sorry to disturb you at this hour. I kept hearing a fox cry from the surroundings before tracing it here. I hope there’s no danger," she asked in a worried tone.
Long Tian scratched his head, smiling. "Just watching Geographic Wild, and it was about a fox hunting. Didn’t expect you could hear it. Seems the volu was loud."
"Do you want to watch with ?" he invited, but Aunt Anna shook her head.
She could feel the lingering heat in the room, but she kept her curiosity to herself.
"Ok. Good night, young master," she said as she walked downstairs.
Long Tian watched her lingering figure before closing the door.
He sat on his bed, looking for ans to make inco, and it was only the Divine Doctor’s skills.
"Alas, a killer becoming a healer," he muttered.
