Xun Zhixue originally just wanted to teach Chu Jing a lesson, to let her pay attention to her own safety and not take too many risks.

But he didn't expect Chu Jing to be more reasonable than him.

He hid the complicated look in his eyes, turned his gaze back to the papers on the table, sat down, and said, as if he was compromising but also as if he had no choice, "Tell me what you found out."

He watched Chu Jing and Lin Ling grow up, so naturally he didn't want them to be in danger of getting hurt more than anyone else.

But as a cultivator, they will always encounter countless dangers and difficulties on their future journey.

His overprotection and worry turned into shackles, preventing them from moving forward.

The next day, the disciples of Xuanjian Sect felt safe when they saw Xun Zhixue.

As a role model for the young disciples of Tianyan Sect, everyone is familiar with his name, and Xun Zhixue has already reached the Jindan stage.

With them added, there should be no problem in dealing with a fox demon who is also at the Jindan stage.

During these three days, they were running up and down Huxian Mountain, and the fox demon never showed any signs of being there, which showed that Chu Jing's speculation was correct.

The opponent's strength should not be too high, otherwise they would have come out and caught them all in one fell swoop long ago.

There were even two who wanted to rush into the fox hole to take a look.

The enemy is retreating and I am advancing. The enemy is afraid of us, so the advantage is mine and I should charge!

If they hadn't been concerned about Xiao Jinghe's silent disappearance, they might have rushed in long ago.

"Senior Brother Xun! Do you know when we can go to that fox cave to rescue Senior Brother Xiao and Fellow Daoist Lin Ling?"

Xun Zhixue said to everyone, "Everyone has collected as much information as possible in the past few days. Today we can go to Huxian Mountain to rescue people. Thank you for your hard work."

Xun Zhixue's voice was gentle yet powerful. His words seemed to have a magical power that could soothe everyone's tense nerves and fear of unknown powerful monsters in the past few days.

Receiving his appreciation and praise made everyone feel that all their efforts over the past few days were worthwhile and worthy of praise, and that they had done a great job.

Xuanyuan Yuli even said to Chu Jing enviously, "Ah, it's another day of envying Xiaojing. How many good deeds must have been done in the previous life to have such a gentle and handsome senior brother in this life? I wish my senior brothers and sisters could be half as gentle as Senior Brother Xun!"

Chu Jing glanced away slightly and avoided looking at Xun Zhixue, who was admired by everyone.

Yes, yes, everyone worked hard, but she was the only one who got scolded last night.

Xun Zhixue noticed Chu Jing's little action, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he told everyone that when they went to Huxian Mountain today, he would enter the fox cave alone from the entrance they had found out, while the others would guard the various exits.

If a fox escapes from its hole, they just need to sprinkle tracking powder on the escaped fox.

To ensure that the fox demon's trace can be tracked.

"If you encounter a strong enemy, don't be too aggressive and protect your own safety."

When Chu Jing heard this arrangement, he felt something was wrong.

She found Xun Zhixue privately and asked, "You told me not to take risks alone, but didn't you take risks alone too?"

"I want to go in with you too. The situation in the fox demon cave is unknown. It would be better for two of us to take care of each other."

Xun Zhixue was about to persuade Chu Jing to stay outside and not take risks, but Chu Jing said:

"Don't worry, Senior Brother. I still have the magic weapon given by Master and Senior Brother. Even if I encounter any life-threatening situation, I can protect myself. At least my life will not be in danger."

"And doesn't Senior Brother agree with my speculation? That fox demon is only at the Golden Core stage at best."

Seeing Chu Jing's determined look, Xun Zhixue had no choice but to agree to let Chu Jing go in with him.

Chu Jing was actually not wrong, they needed some experience and adventure.

Actual combat often provides them with more experience.

And so far, Chu Jing has done a good job, and there is nothing wrong with his on-the-spot response to emergencies.

"Okay, then you must follow me closely."

"Ok!"

Just like that, Chu Jing and Xun Zhixue entered the fox cave, while the others waited at the five exits. If anything escaped from the cave, they would kill those who could be killed, and sprinkle tracking powder on those who could not be beaten.

Chu Jing and Xun Zhixue entered from the largest entrance.

There was a formation set up in front of the cave entrance to provide cover and concealment, and Xun Zhixue tore a hole in the formation.

Chu Jing and Xun Zhixue took advantage of this opportunity to walk in. Xuanyuan Yuli, who was responsible for guarding outside, saw the two disappear in the blink of an eye.

Once you enter the cave, you will see a very wide corridor. A few dozen steps ahead in the corridor, you will see a tall and majestic stone gate. On the pillars on both sides of the stone gate are murals carved with half-human, half-fox figures.

Like a demon or a fairy.

The cave was filled with a strong evil aura, and within this strong evil aura seemed to be mixed with a very faint scent of incense.

But the aroma of incense was almost completely swallowed up and drowned.

This is similar to Chu Jing's later speculation. The one causing trouble in Huxian Mountain now should be the fox demon in the Fox Fairy Temple.

I just don’t know what happened in the meantime that caused a fox demon that cultivated by enjoying human offerings to start harming people.

Xun Zhixue walked in front and Chu Jing walked behind.

The two of them walked cautiously through the stone door, one in front and one behind, and entered the cave.

If it weren't for the strong demonic aura that filled this place, Chu Jing would have thought that this was a cave built by a human cultivator.

Both the architectural structure and the decoration style are the same as those of human buildings.

"Brother, these murals... seem to depict a pair of lovers."

On both sides of the stone wall, the story of a man and a woman meeting, getting to know each other, and falling in love is depicted in detail. Finally, at the end of the mural, there is a happy and joyful happy ending.

But Chu Jing knew that if what was depicted here was a true story, then the ending would definitely be sad. After all, what the fox demon was doing now was catching the lovers passing by.

Xun Zhixue scanned the mural from beginning to end, her gaze settling on the final scene. "Could this be a fox that's been hurt by love?"

As the two walked further in, they encountered many forks in the road.

They chose a main road and continued walking inside.

Suddenly, a charming female fox demon in human form, wearing human clothes, came from the front carrying something.

Xun Zhixue raised her hand and took down the fox demon. The blue rope tied up the female fox demon. The fox demon could not hide her body shape, revealing her ears and furry white tail.

Seeing an outsider breaking in, the fox demon sitting on the ground looked up at Xun Zhixue with tearful eyes, weak and beautiful, like a begonia in the rain.

Lively and fragrant.

As soon as she spoke, her voice was like a hook. "Who are you? How dare you break into the fox fairy cave!"

"Master Fox Fairy won't let you go!"
