“Master, what’s wrong? You seem to have a nosebleed~”
Li Miaosheng, his face flushed red, unknowingly began to bleed from his nose, which caused the already unclothed fox spirit lady to move even closer to him; until their chests pressed together and they could feel each other’s body temperature
How could the protagonist possibly remain composed in such a situation.
The moment he felt the warmth from the fox spirit lady, his brain instantly lost the ability to think and went into shutdown mode.
“N-no, no! I’m fine! Everything is normal!”
He replied intermittently, his gaze fixed stiffly on the refrigerator; afraid that if he accidentally looked at the fox spirit lady’s alluring body, he might lose control and do something wrong…
“Lying is not right! After all these years, Master, you still haven’t changed at all~ just like a child who never grew up…”
She said shyly, her tone filled with affection…
And her body leaned closer and closer; rationality kept clashing in Li Miaosheng’s mind, as the question of whether to push away the cute woman before him or not echoed repeatedly…
Giving him a headache…
But at this critical moment, the living room door was suddenly kicked open, and a young man wearing a brown coat rushed in.
Before Li Miaosheng could react, the man saw such a suggestive scene and immediately shouted:
“You old demon! I didn’t expect you to still not give up! Taking advantage of my brother being injured to seduce him with your body and drain his essence! I’m telling you, as long as I’m here, you won’t succeed!!”
“Bai! Ze! Cannon!!”
Golden energy began to gather continuously in the man’s mouth; aimed at the two who were embracing.
………
Fortunately, Bai Ze’s loud shout instantly snapped Li Miaosheng out of his shutdown state.
He hurriedly explained:
“Bai Ze, wait! Listen to me, this situation is not what you think…”
“No need to say more!” Bai Ze raised his right hand in a rejecting gesture.
“I already know; big brother, you’ve been bewitched, so don’t worry, this blast won’t hurt you much, but for demons it is a large-scale lethal weapon…”
“Bai Ze…… pfft~!”
Before he could say the word “cannon,” a slipper came flying from somewhere and instantly interrupted him; leaving a red shoe mark on his face.
“Who! Who dared to sneak attack me? If you’ve got guts, face me head-on! What kind of hero uses tricks from the shadows!”
Seeing Bai Ze’s guarded stance, the protagonist hurriedly spoke to the fox spirit lady in front of him…
But just as he was about to speak, the fox spirit lady was already no longer in front of him, as if she had evaporated into thin air.
…………
Now, Bai Ze was still shouting loudly, and at the same time Li Miaosheng was also completely confused.
This situation was something he had never expected; normally, even if Su Jiuli disappeared, when he called her in his mind she would respond, but this time, even after calling dozens of times, there was no answer at all…
As if she had never come.
“If that wasn’t the fox spirit lady! Then who was the fox spirit lady just now?…”
Li Miaosheng muttered softly, but Bai Ze beside him was still roaring:
“Who is it! Come out! Using such petty tricks to insult an ancient divine beast, if you come out I promise I won’t beat you to death…”
As he spoke; golden beams of light continued to gather in his mouth, and his expression became increasingly irritable.
“Not coming out, huh! Bai Ze…”
With a “smack,” another slipper was taken by Li Miaosheng and thrown straight at Bai Ze.
“Are you calm now?” he said, his face pale and voice weak.
And the claw marks on his back continued to send waves of stabbing pain…
Seeing another slipper hit his face, Bai Ze’s anger flared up even more as he immediately pulled the slipper off.
Just as he was about to vent…
He saw Li Miaosheng on the verge of collapse.
“That was me! Bai Ze, didn’t you notice something wrong with me?”
“Huff… huff!” he breathed with difficulty.
That single claw strike had severely injured him; even after applying medicine, it only stopped the bleeding.
The massive loss of blood made him feel dizzy, not to mention being tossed around like that by the fox spirit lady.
Finally understanding the situation, Bai Ze snapped back to his senses and said in shock:
“Big brother, what happened to you? Why have you become like this…”
Li Miaosheng’s weak state made him panic, and he immediately moved closer to the protagonist.
No longer caring about the flying slippers.
…………
“Damn! Why are there three such deep claw marks on your back? It must be that thing! Big brother, wait, I’ll go catch it right now…”
Seeing Li Miaosheng’s injuries, Bai Ze’s earlier agitation surged again; he turned, pulled his coat, and was about to head toward the living room door.
At this moment, Li Miaosheng, sitting on the sofa, became anxious and shouted with all his strength:
“Catch, catch, catch! Catch your head! That thing already ran far away! Instead of that, why don’t you hurry up and use your magic to treat me?”
After saying this; Bai Ze, who was about to step out the door, immediately ran back.
With an aggrieved expression clearly written on his face:
“I-I just wanted to avenge you, big brother~ I didn’t expect you to scold me… sob (sniff.jpg)”
{Ah~! I beg you, I can barely speak, don’t make me complain anymore…} Li Miaosheng thought to himself.
In the end, he reluctantly let Bai Ze treat him…
By the time he recovered; it was already two in the afternoon.
The air grew increasingly hot, bringing with it an inexplicable sense of irritation…
Especially for Li Miaosheng; thinking that he not only failed to catch that thing but also ended up seriously injured made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Now he could only cross his arms over his chest and sit in a thinking posture.
Meanwhile, Bai Ze was happily eating at the side; completely ignoring the lingering fox scent in the living room.
“Mmm! So tasty, this KCC hand-grabbed chicken is truly amazing; with one bite, the tender meat bursts with juices, paired with cola…”
“Am I living in the immortal realm?” he sighed while sitting at the table.
At that moment; after the sigh, Li Miaosheng suddenly stood up, walked in front of Bai Ze, and slammed the table hard!
“Bang!”
The loud sound startled Bai Ze, and the chicken leg in his hand dropped straight to the ground…
“Wah~! Big brother, that was…”
“Shut up!” the protagonist interrupted.
“We can’t go on like this; apart from eating and waiting to die, we can do nothing! We can’t even catch a troublemaker and got played instead. We need to change…”
“Become professional Taoist exorcists!!”
