A Dream of Transmigration - Chapter 98
It's not bad at all!
A breeze blew by, and the pure white fur trembled slightly, rippling like water...
Looking at the white fox's stiff corpse and listening to everyone's sighs, Lin Feifei suddenly felt guilty—she had really misunderstood it. After all, legends mostly say fox spirits are evil, and she had to bear that bad reputation…
for a long time.
She murmured, "How could it be killed? It was so careless of it."
“It has cultivated for hundreds of years, how could it be so easily killed?” Yang Jianfei looked at the white fox and his expression changed. “Its primordial spirit was destroyed and its essence and soul were annihilated.”
Lin Feifei was startled and exclaimed, "The person who killed it also knew magic?"
"Taoist practitioners often take it upon themselves to subdue demons and monsters, but alas..." Looking at the monks around him who were busy trying to perform a ritual to release it from suffering, Yang Jianfei's usually confident and arrogant face revealed a sorrow and grief that was incongruous with his usual demeanor. "Perform a ritual? Its soul and spirit have already perished, so how can it be performed a ritual..."
Lin Feifei was also saddened.
Back then, that monk Pujue was a master of "exorcising demons," which is why he destroyed Lan Gongzi's soul. In this era, most people believed that monsters should die, while the monsters they encountered were quite adorable.
Who knows, if we kill that silver fox, some expert might be gloating right now...
.
Two figures can be seen through the window.
A woman in yellow, a young man in white; one dejected, the other cold as ice. Ever since seeing the white fox that morning, Lin Feifei had been in a bad mood.
"Senior brother, the fox I encountered yesterday was killed." A very frustrated voice.
"It will harm you."
“It didn’t hurt me,” Lin Feifei sat down and slumped onto the table. “It was just teasing me. I thought all fox spirits were harmful. I was wrong about it.”
He nodded: "Silver Fox is inherently unruly."
"Yes, it was quite cute. Although it wasn't my fault, I still feel like I killed it." She was even more frustrated, muttering to herself, "So pitiful, who killed it..."
After a while.
He looked at her: "It's mocking you."
Lin Feifei weakly lifted her eyelids: "It was really too naughty, but it didn't mean me any harm, so it wasn't bad. Who would be so cruel as to kill it!"
Stunned.
Her icy eyes blinked twice before she looked out the window again.
.
Over the next few days, Yang Jianfei was too busy with his mission to investigate the matter further. Besides, even if he found out, it was just killing a monster; it wouldn't do anything to him. Lin Feifei, on the other hand, felt somewhat sad when she thought about it.
It is often said that human life is cheap in this era, but little did we know that the most tragic beings are the monsters.
.
.
Mid-Autumn Festival.
As dusk settled, the full moon rose, and the clear sunlight cascaded down like a waterfall, bathing the courtyard ground in a blanket of white. A gentle breeze occasionally stirred, carrying the faint fragrance of osmanthus blossoms with it.
Ling Yi had already said he would go out tonight, but he had witnessed firsthand how powerful Baiyue Suxinlan Soul was. Wouldn't it be too dangerous for him to go alone?
After thinking about it, Lin Feifei decided to go and take a look.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
.
His handsome face wore its usual cold expression, and his white clothes were without a single wrinkle.
"Senior brother?" Lin Feifei stood up in surprise. "Didn't you say you were going up the mountain?"
He nodded, walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his back: "It's still early, I came to see you."
Moonlight slanted through the window, softening his icy eyes. Lin Feifei was touched; it was already a rare privilege for him to take the time to talk to her.
Doesn't he miss home during the Mid-Autumn Festival?
Lin Feifei sat down again and asked curiously, "Senior brother, where do you live?"
"Lanling".
"You live in Lanling too? Isn't that where Miss Su and the others' story took place?" Lin Feifei thought for a moment. "Lanling must be famous for its orchids."
He was stunned.
After a while.
"Want to go?"
Lin Feifei nodded.
Behind his long eyelashes, his icy eyes stared intently at her: "After today's business is over, shall I take you there?"
"real?"
He nodded.
