Fairy, please have some self-respect. I am not the reincarnation of your deceased husband.

Chapter 126 This little fox can actually transform into human form?

On the way back, Su Jiu'er quieted down.

The little guy's ears drooped, and his tail wagged lightly and intermittently.

The fox lay limply in Pei Wanyun's arms, looking listless.

After a day of running around, getting lost, and being frightened, she was truly exhausted.

"Go to sleep if you're tired."

Pei Wanyun noticed Jiu'er's exhaustion and comforted her with a gentle, soothing voice, "When you wake up, you'll be able to see Lian Shu."

'

""

Su Jiu'er didn't answer, but her slightly closed eyes and completely relaxed body were enough to say everything.

She fell completely asleep in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

As she felt the little fox in her arms gradually regain its breath, Pei Wanyun couldn't help but sigh softly.

This little thing is much easier to coax than Xueyan.

She deliberately slowed down her flight to avoid disturbing the little guy's rest.

"Waaah—"

Su Jiu'er was awakened by the sound of voices.

She let out a sob and slowly opened her eyes.

In a daze, what came into view was a moon-white garment, and the air was filled with the rich fragrance of lotus flowers.

There was also a very comfortable pat on her head, which almost made her squint again.

"woke up?"

Noticing Su Jiu'er's movement, the two stopped chatting.

Su Jiu'er then came to her senses.

She was stunned for a moment, then remembered where she was.

He suddenly looked up and glanced around—

Sure enough, her husband was sitting not far away.

"Jiu'er, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Lianshu smiled at her.

"Waaah!"

Husband!

Su Jiu'er responded cheerfully.

But looking at the lazy cat in the other person's arms, purring and munching on snacks, jealousy surged instantly.

She wished she could pounce on it immediately and push the lazy cat out.

But as soon as she moved, Pei Wanyun gently pressed her down, holding her tightly in her arms, making her unable to move.

This time, it wasn't that her body wouldn't obey her commands, but rather that the other person's seemingly gentle movements left her completely powerless.

She tried to call out, but for some reason, she couldn't make a sound.

"Lian Shu, continue telling me about your experiences in the secret realm."

Pei Wanyun stroked the "well-behaved" little fox in her arms, leaning against the side, resting her chin on one hand, her gaze gently falling on her husband.

She gave Xueyan a meaningful look as she ate snacks in her husband's arms.

This is a reward for the little guy's loyalty.

While Su Jiu'er was sleeping, Xue Yan had already revealed all the details about this little fox.

Although it couldn't take shape and speak like the other, as its contracted master, she could still understand it roughly.

Who would have thought that this little fox could transform into human form?

She even referred to Lian Shu as her husband.

This is also why Pei Wanyun controls the little creature and prevents it from getting close to her husband.

Once she knew this, she could no longer treat the other party as a simple spirit pet.

We must be on guard and not let her get close to Lian Shu without any scruples.

Moreover, the secret realm experience described by Chen Lianshu was completely different from what she remembered.

Many people and circumstances have shifted.

Sure enough, everything was quietly changing.

"Actually, there's one more thing I'd like to ask you, Master."

"Hmm? What is it?"

Pei Wanyun was somewhat surprised.

My husband's cultivation path is almost unimpeded, so what could he possibly need to ask me for advice?

"It's about Jiu'er."

Chen Lianshu looked down at the "well-behaved" little fox being stroked, and reached out to pat her head as well.

"she?"

Pei Wanyun glanced at the object in her arms with a puzzled look.

The other person was staring at him with a resentful look in their eyes.

She ignored him and looked back at her husband: "What's wrong with her?"

Chen Lianshu truthfully replied, "Jiu'er's body has been sealed by a demon hunter."

"Although consuming some spiritual herbs in the secret realm provided some relief, most of the effects have not yet been completely eliminated."

"I thought that with your knowledge, Master, I would like to ask you to help me see if this can be resolved."

"seal?"

Pei Wanyun had never actually examined the little fox's body.

Immediately, a surge of spiritual energy entered Su Jiu'er's body.

The little one didn't resist, after all, she was also looking forward to the day when she could break the seal.

"this--"

After examining the area, Pei Wanyun looked troubled.

"What's wrong?"

She shook her head: "I did detect that Jiu'er's spiritual energy was rather disordered, which is clearly a sign that it has been sealed."

"But the seal of this demon hunter is somewhat special."

"Although the seal limited Jiu'er's spiritual power, it did not damage her fundamental abilities."

An hour ago, she would have unhesitatingly untied it.

But now, she won't.

She wouldn't create another rival for no reason.

Immediately changing her mind, Pei Wanyun lied gently: "If we forcibly remove it, it might hurt her instead."

"Isn't there any other way?"

Chen Lianshu frowned slightly, finding the seal somewhat troublesome.

"Not at the moment."

Her attitude was extremely sincere: "But you don't need to worry."

"Demon hunters profit from capturing spirit beasts, so they certainly won't harm the fundamentals."

"This seal will dissipate on its own over time."

"I don't know exactly how long it will take; we can only see how the little one recovers on his own."

Pei Wanyun shook her head, indicating that she was powerless to help.

If this seal really harms Su Jiu'er, then she will naturally help to remove it.

But since it doesn't cause any problems, and it can temporarily restrict the opponent—

Then let nature take its course.

Unless she and Lian Shu regain their former status and become legitimate Daoist partners.

At that time, as the little guy's mistress, she would naturally not hesitate to lend a helping hand.

"All right."

Since it won't hurt Jiu'er, it's just a matter of time, so there's no rush.

"Um."

Pei Wanyun smiled and nodded, then raised her hand to release the little fox.

This time, to everyone's surprise, Su Jiu'er did not feel restrained and easily broke free, throwing herself directly into her husband's arms.

This was naturally something Pei Wanyun deliberately let go of.

If she hadn't intentionally let it go, no matter how much it struggled, it would have had no chance of breaking free so easily. "Waaah!"

The moment she threw herself into her husband's arms, Su Jiu'er raised her paws and slapped him twice!

She slapped Xiao Xueyan, who was hogging her husband's arms, away, and with another slap, knocked the snacks out of her husband's arms.

Then she began to sniff her husband from left to right, rubbing against him here and there, as if she wanted to imbue him with all his scent.

"Meow!"

Xiao Xueyan was caught off guard and tumbled over.

Looking at the smug fox, it remembered what its master had told it, and in the end, it didn't lash out.

She gave a soft hum and continued eating her favorite snacks.

"Alright, Jiu'er."

After finally calming her down, Chen Lianshu looked up at Pei Wanyun and said, "Thank you, Master."

"What are you thanking me for?"

Pei Wanyun put down her teacup, a faint smile in her eyes.

She suddenly leaned forward slightly, her movements bold yet natural, her fingertips gently tugging at a strand of her husband's hair, her eyes tender and almost lingering.

With no one else around, she gradually stopped hiding her feelings and became bolder.

"Waaaaah!"

Before her husband could react, Su Jiu'er slapped his finger away with her claw.

Pei Wanyun wasn't annoyed. She withdrew her hand, sat back down, and smiled as before: "There's no need for this between us."

She looked at him with a smile, deliberately avoiding the words "master and disciple," her words carrying a hint of flirtatious ambiguity.

Chen Lianshu was at a loss for words.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly awkward, Pei Wanyun broke the silence first, slowly saying, "By the way, there's something I should tell you."

"Qianxue—she has already gone to Jingxin Valley for seclusion."
