Fox Demon: Reincarnation of the Ninth Life

The rain stopped, the sky gradually cleared up, and the sun peeked out from behind the clouds, casting rays of golden sunlight.

The mountains in the distance were washed particularly clear by the rain, the trees and flowers on the mountains appeared greener and brighter, and the air was filled with a fresh scent.

Everything seemed to be reborn, and in it, Dongfang Gu Yue, who survived the disaster, slowly opened his eyes.

"Where is this place? Am I... still alive?"

The sun shone on his face, and he had never felt so warm.

But the next second, pain and weakness swept through his body. He overdrawn his body by forcing himself to use his magic power. Coupled with the injuries he suffered, it would take at least a month to heal.

After a hundred days of recovering from his injuries, he has already been to the gates of hell.

'Crackling'

It is the sound produced by the burning of firewood, the rapid expansion and release of water vapor and gas.

Is there anyone else here?

Dongfang Guyue immediately became alert.

But the pain and weakness came, and I felt that I wanted to but not enough to move my body no matter how hard I tried.

Hearing Dongfang Guyue's movements, Lan also realized that he had woken up.

He threw some firewood into the fire and let it burn heavily. Then he picked up the water that had been burning for half a day and turned to walk towards the lonely moon in the east.

"child?"

Seeing Lan’s young face, Dongfang Guyue was a little surprised.

Thinking that he was safe, he knew that he must have someone to help him, but he didn't expect that it was a child who only looked like he had a topknot.

"It was you...it was you who saved...me?"

Dongfang Guyue spoke with difficulty. After just a few words, he felt like his vocal cords were about to tear.

Lan didn't say anything, but silently handed the water to him.

one second...

Two seconds...

three seconds...

Dongfang Guyue didn't move at all, and Lan frowned slightly.

Suddenly I thought of how seriously injured he was and that the human body did not have the same strong healing ability as a monster.

So he should have difficulty even raising his arms now. Lan looked embarrassed, but still slowly opened Gu Yue's mouth and slowly poured the water into it.

"Pfft, cough cough cough..."

The sudden scalding water almost choked him, and now his throat not only felt torn, but also burning.

Gu Yue looked at Lan with some resentment. This guy in front of him had no idea how to take care of others.

Lan noticed Gu Yue's resentful look, and remembered that the water seemed to have just been boiled, at over 80 degrees...

"The human body is so troublesome..."

Lan thought silently in his heart, and then mobilized his demonic power. The moisture in the air was extracted and fell into the cup.

Feeling the water in the cup turn from boiling hot to warm, he poured it into Dongfang Guyue's mouth.

"monster?!"

Dongfang Gu Yue felt the looming demonic power of Lan, and his eyes lit up.

It is unexpected that he, who had killed countless monsters during his training, is now rescued by a monster when he is in trouble. How ironic.

"Looking at his realm, he should be at the level of a Little Demon King, which is also considered a strong person in the demon world, but..."

Dongfang Gu Yue thought about it, and then asked again with difficulty.

"Little... little friend, I wonder if you have... seen the two people traveling with me?"

Asking tentatively, Gu Yue had to make sure that the two old guys were dead, otherwise they would be in danger of being exposed and surrounded.

"killed."

Lan responded calmly.

These two words, however, caused a huge wave in Dongfang Guyue's mind.

died? !

How can it be? !

Those are two elders at the peak of the Golden Core stage!

Was he killed by the monster in front of him? How could a mere demon king kill two people who were strong enough to rival the demon king?

impossible!

It’s simply a fantasy!

Dongfang Guyue's pupils trembled, which was caught by Lan, who roughly understood what he was thinking.

"A sneak attack, successful."

These two simple words describe the process of Lan defeating two human monks whose realms were far superior to his own.

"Sneak attack..."

Gu Yue pondered in his heart, indeed, unexpected moves often have unexpected results.

But he remembered that at that time the Great Elder released pure sun flames, setting the entire forest on fire.

When he was training, some monsters would be so scared when they saw the pure Yangyan fire that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Yangyan is the nemesis of monsters.

But the monster in front of him not only did not feel fear towards the Pure Yangyan, but actually killed the manipulator, which aroused Dongfang Guyue's interest.

"Why... aren't you afraid of this fire?"

Dongfang Guyue spoke slowly.

Lan glanced at him and didn't answer. He just went about his own business. Today's lunch hadn't been found yet, so he decided to go hunting first.

It just so happened that he also had questions and wanted to ask the person living in his mind.

"Hunting, what is it?"

This is certainly not what the two words mean.

"Master, do I need to unfold the panel for you?"

Xiaopei did not answer Lan directly, but introduced the "panel" to Lan.

Lan pondered for a moment, then nodded tentatively.

With a 'ding' sound, a panel with a few lines of text appeared in front of Lan.

Lan subconsciously jumped onto the tree, gathered the water to transform it into two sharp blades, took a defensive posture, and stared at the panel below cautiously.

Character: Lan

Abilities: Hunting (unlocked), Breaking Waves (unlocked), Breaking Air (unlocked), Marking (unlocked), Execution (unlocked)

Match rate: 29.9%

Seeing that the thing hadn't moved, Lan jumped down from the tree, walked to the panel and began to read it carefully.

And at the moment he read carefully, the originally messy fragments of memory in his mind began to be arranged in order. Lan frowned slightly and patted his head.

He seemed to have seen this thing somewhere.

"figure……"

He muttered to himself, and a strange feeling surged into his mind. He was both Lan and not Lan.

But if he wasn't Lan, who else could it be? He had never remembered that he had a second identity.

"Ability, what does it mean?"

He expressed his doubts.

"Abilities refer to the abilities that your character already possesses, and you need to improve your matching rate to obtain these abilities."

Xiaopei explained.

Lan saw the word "unlocked" marked on "Hunting" and tried to use it.

But the body did not react at all, and there was no feeling of the so-called "hunting" at all.

"Master, the ability to hunt requires triggering conditions. When the prey is injured, the hunt will be automatically triggered, and your overall ability will be enhanced."

(ps: slightly modified)

Seeing Lan trying so stupidly, xi couldn't help but explain for him.

"I see……"

Lan was deep in thought, when at this moment, the haystack next to him made a noise. Lan immediately became alert, and the sharp blade formed by the gathering of demonic power and water flow shot out instantly.

"Giggle!"

When the sound was heard, a hare jumped high. Judging from the blood on its legs, Lan's attack just now had hit it.

At this moment, Lan's eyes turned blood red, and 'hunting' was triggered at this moment!

Gather the sharp blades!

Swing the knife!

Behead!

The whole process was extremely smooth. In the eyes of other people, Lan would always be like this.

But only Lan himself knew that although he used the same magic power as usual, his efficiency was greatly improved!

"This is... 'The Hunt'."

Lan clenched his fists, feeling the strength gradually draining away, and he felt pretty good.

The hare was quite big, but it was not enough for two people, so he decided to go fishing.

This place is close to Longwan, and there are many tributary rivers. The fish in the rivers are all big, but relatively difficult to catch.

Of course, this is for other people.

. . . . . .

At noon, Lan returned to the cave with a basket of fish and the hare.

Dongfang Gu Yue was still lying there. After all, his current physical condition did not allow him to get up.

As he was watching, Lan came to the dying fire and blew out two puffs of "fairy air", and the dying flames were rekindled.

"Why did you save me?"

While Lan was grilling, Dongfang Guyue still raised the doubts in his mind.

When monsters are under the threat of the divine fire, saving humans is equivalent to risking their own lives to save their enemies. It is unbelievable!

What Dongfang Gu Yue had been exposed to since childhood was monsters that fed on humans, so he never showed mercy to monsters when he encountered them during his training.

Lan's behavior was inconsistent with what he had learned since childhood, so he wanted to know the answer.

"Because you want to survive."

Lan said slowly. Dongfang Guyue was full of question marks on his face. What kind of reason is this?

"I want to know why you want to live."

Lan revealed the real reason, put down his work, and stared at Dongfang Gu Yue with burning eyes.

"Uh, do you need a reason to live?"

As soon as Dongfang Guyue finished speaking, Yin Yue's graceful figure flashed in his mind.

He understood; this was what Lan meant!

"Ahem, do you want to hear my story?"

Dongfang Guyue asked, and Lan nodded.

In the following time, Dongfang Guyue revealed his identity and went out to gain experience, and rescued Luo Yinyue from the monster, and they fell in love, which led to the current situation.

In the secret land in the east of Aolai country, there lives a hidden race with a large population. Every member of the race needs to go out for experience to become stronger.

It is also an important way to ensure that the Eastern Spirit Clan will not fall behind the world. During this experience, the young Dongfang Guyue accidentally saved the girl Luo Yinyue.

She is graceful, careful and meticulous; he is simple and unpretentious, with extraordinary talent.

The boy and girl made an appointment to walk together, and it was also here that they fell in love with each other.

However, in order to maintain the purity of the Dongfang family's spiritual blood, the clan forbids members from marrying women from other clans. Dongfang Guyue expressed his feelings to Luo Yinyue the day before he returned.

It was then that they made a one-year agreement that after he had dealt with the affairs of the clan, he would return to marry her and spend the rest of his life with her.

But in the end, he was discovered and hunted down. If it weren't for Lan's help, he would probably have died by now.

After listening to everything Dongfang Guyue said, Lan's worldview was impacted. Experience, love, and promise, these were words he had never heard of before.

Since he became conscious, everything around him was filled with killing. If I don't kill you today, you will kill me tomorrow.

The law of the jungle prevails and only the strong survive, this seems to be the rule engraved in Lan's soul.

Now, from the mouths of the people he saved by following his heart, he felt a new world. What are the so-called experience, love, and promise?

He...really wants to know.
