Chapter 1971

Zhu Yanyi looked closely and saw a red fox.

"The parents of this fox were killed by the wolf clan," the Silver Fox said seriously. "If we raise it in the Heavenly Fox Clan, the competition is too fierce. It has little chance to survive. It is better to give it to you as a pet. Just put your blood in its mouth, and it will recognize you as its master."

Zhu Yanyi looked at the fox. Its eyes were red, but they seemed very lively. There was a mark like a flame on its forehead. Zhu Yanyi glanced at Yan Aohan.

Yan Aohan nodded with a smile. "Since the Silver Fox gave it to you, take it. Red Heavenly Foxes are rare. Half of them are heirs to the clan leader. But the Heavenly Fox Clan can only have one leader. If a red fox is born, it will be killed. It is better for it to be your spirit pet."

This was probably why the Silver Fox gave the red fox to Zhu Yanyi. They were both foxes. The Silver Fox did not want this newborn red fox to lose its life. However, it was truly unsuitable to stay in the Heavenly Fox Clan.

Zhu Yanyi liked the fox very much. She pricked her middle finger with a gold needle. When blood came out, she put it to the red fox’s mouth.

The red fox seemed to know what it was. It did not resist and swallowed the drop of blood directly. Then Zhu Yanyi felt warmth in her heart. She felt a connection with the red fox.

She smiled and stroked the red fox’s fur gently. "You have a flame mark on your forehead, and you are red like fire. From now on, your name will be Flame."

Flame seemed to feel safe now. It calmed down and closed its eyes to sleep in Zhu Yanyi’s arms.

Yan Aohan said to Zhu Yanyi, "You go first. I will talk with the Silver Fox for a while. As for the matter of Xiangyao, I will settle it with you later."

Zhu Yanyi now understood why Yan Aohan had come to find her. It was because of Xiangyao. She felt very wronged. "I used my wits in an emergency and survived. You don’t praise me, but want to settle accounts with me?"

"I want you to know to act within your limits," Yan Aohan said, glaring at Zhu Yanyi.

Zhu Yanyi huffed. "Can I blame myself for not acting within my limits? Xiangyao was trying to deal with me. Also, you said you injured it, so why did it escape? You are too weak." Only Zhu Yanyi dared to speak to Yan Aohan like this.

Yan Aohan was speechless. It seemed that in the end, the fault became his. "Fine, I know. You go first." As for settling accounts, it would probably end with much noise but little action.

Zhu Yanyi saw through this, so she smiled and drove her flying boat past them, leaving first. After all, she did not need to manage these two.

"Fifteen, is the person opposite Lord Yan Jun the leader of the Heavenly Fox Clan?" Yi Yunfei asked Zhu Yanyi.

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "Yes, he is the leader of the Heavenly Fox Clan. But I don’t even know his real name. I knew him when he used the alias Silver Fox, so I always called him Silver Fox. It became a habit." She rubbed Flame in her arms, feeling very calm.

"I didn’t expect the leader of the Heavenly Fox Clan to be so handsome," Mi Xiao said, looking infatuated.

Jian Feiyan tapped Mi Xiao’s head. "Stop being infatuated. With his status as the leader of the Heavenly Fox Clan, he is not someone we ordinary people can pursue."

"I just see her as an idol. I won’t pursue her," Mi Xiao said. She looked at Gu Jun beside her with a flattering expression. "Right, Fourth Senior Brother?"

Gu Jun looked at Mi Xiao with a half-smile, then nodded. "What you say makes some sense."

Everyone knew about the relationship between Gu Jun and Mi Xiao, so they laughed loudly at this. The laughter made Mi Xiao blush.

At this moment, Yan Aohan and the Silver Fox stood in the air for a while. Yan Aohan took out a flying device and walked up. The Silver Fox did not hesitate and went up too.

Yan Aohan took out a square tea table, then some pastries and wine. Then he said, "Did you want to ask Ani about Ling Shu just now?"

"Yes," the Silver Fox nodded seriously. "Ling Shu looks healthy, but he has no sensation. It hurts my heart to see him like this."

Yan Aohan sighed deeply. "For Ling Shu to wake up, he needs the Hundred Grass Soul-Returning Pill. This pill is a divine-level pill. Ani’s current alchemy level is only six, so it is still early."

The Silver Fox said, "So there is already a treatment plan. We are just waiting for the little divine doctor’s alchemy skills to improve?"

"Do you think alchemy skills are easy to improve? Improving alchemy requires not only higher mental power but also higher cultivation. Currently, Ani is between the early and middle stages of the Void Movement Realm, close to the middle stage. She can only refine six-level pills," Yan Aohan said to the Silver Fox. "I know you are anxious, but some things cannot be rushed. There is a saying in the mortal world: haste makes waste." Yan Aohan looked at the Silver Fox with a very serious expression.

The Silver Fox smiled bitterly. "Don’t worry. I have no intention of forcing the little divine doctor. I just want to know if there is hope."

"There is hope, but we must wait," Yan Aohan said seriously to the Silver Fox.

The Silver Fox did not object. "Don’t worry. I have nothing else, but I have plenty of patience. So don’t worry. I can wait. Since I now have hope, I can wait."

Then he looked at Yan Aohan and said, "What is the prescription for the Hundred Grass Soul-Returning Pill? I will have people prepare it first. Our Heavenly Fox Clan may lack other abilities, but as famous wise animals on the grassland, it is very easy for us to find medicinal materials."

Yan Aohan looked at the Silver Fox, then took out a prescription. "This is the prescription. There are thousands of medicinal materials listed. When Ani gave me the prescription, I was thinking of having the Yin Messengers find them. Since you are willing, I will give you a copy."

Yan Aohan would not tell the Silver Fox the truth. He would not tell him that the so-called Hundred Grass Soul-Returning Pill actually needed to be condensed by the Medicine God Cauldron itself. He did not say it now mainly to protect Zhu Yanyi.

Of course, this prescription was indeed real. It was one Yan Aohan had asked Zhu Yanyi for some days ago. Zhu Yanyi had given him the prescription, telling him not to look for some eight-level and nine-level pill materials, but to help find some others.

Now that he met the Silver Fox, Yan Aohan naturally would not miss this free labor. So he naturally gave the Silver Fox a copy of the prescription, so that the Silver Fox would also have something to hold onto in his heart.

The Silver Fox did not doubt the authenticity of this prescription. After all, Yan Aohan’s position was there. As the Venerable Yanluo, if he wanted to trick him, he would not be acting like this now.
