Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

”...” Fang Jia blinked her eyes gently. She definitely must’ve heard incorrectly.

”Is there a way to use that metal?” Aiko tilted her head.

Auntie Fang was too speechless to say anything, so she just blankly stared at the not-so-little Fox.

Aiko blinked innocently, like she just didn’t say something ridiculous.

”You removed that river...?” Fang Jia blinked again.

”Slurped all up.” Aiko nodded.

”That is impossible.” Auntie Fang recovered, which didn’t make Aiko happy.

”Oi, kid, keep playing with the sand and let us adults talk.” Aiko snorted at her.

Fang Jia glared back. ”It’s impossible to move that river in any way. You would be swallowed and degraded. Moreover, there is also no flight rule over this Secret Realm.”

”So?” Aiko tilted her head. ”Just because you are incompetent, I’m supposed to be too?”

Auntie Fang choked and glared even more harshly at Aiko.

Aiko shrugged. ”Anyway, so about that metal.” She looked towards Fang Jia.

”We need to melt it first, but that would be done later, since it’s not a good idea to make a Cauldron for Forging in here.” Fang Jia shook her head.

”Oh, anything special about that metal?” Since it seemed like Fang Jia knew a lot about Cauldron, Aiko wanted to use this situation to learn more about them.

”I believe it’s unwise to share knowledge with an outsider.” Auntie Fang said to Fang Jia.

”She is fine.” Fang Jia immediately dismissed her.

Aiko snorted at Auntie Fang, which made her angrier.

”We don’t know what this Beast will do with it.” Auntie Fang warned.

”Of course, I will make my own Cauldron. The more knowledge I have about this topic, the less of a danger it is for me.” Aiko snorted unhappily.

”Oh, you are also creating a Forging Cauldron?” Fang Jia blinked innocently.

”Yeah, but I will be using a meteorite as a base.” Aiko rolled on her lap.

”But that one is highly mutating; it might mess up the whole thing...” Fang Jia warned.

”That is for future Aiko to worry about. Moreover, my Cauldron is special, so I will just remake it if I don’t like it.” Aiko shrugged.

”Hmmmmm~” Fang Jia hummed. ”What will I get in return~?” She teased the little Fox.

Aiko narrowed her eyes and licked her mouth. ”Don’t be like that~” She hummed back mischievously.

”Why not~?” Fang Jia stuck out her tongue.

*Poof*

It was obvious that the current Aiko would not be teased. On Fang Jia’s lap now sat a beautiful Fox with predatory tails.

Auntie Fang counted them and shivered. ’I only have 5 Tails!’ It would be bad if that damned Demonic Beast did something to the Princ-

Aiko met the Princess’s lips as she gently smooched her.

Fang Jia stiffened her body as she hadn’t expected this whole situation.

Aiko licked her lips gently. ”Mm, mm, you are sweet~” She hummed softly as she licked her lips again.

Fang Jia was still stiff, but what was even funnier was the fact she was slowly getting redder and redder.

”Oh, she can change colours like that, how cute.” Aiko giggled as she saw everyone glare at her.

Aiko hugged her face and buried Fang Jia into her boobs.

Fang Jia was even more flustered, but she didn’t defend against the not-so-little Fox.

”Y-y-you-!” Auntie Fang could not form coherent words.

Aiko tilted her head, but didn’t really care about them. ”Just because you took the first candy doesn’t mean she won’t like you.” She shrugged.

This little Human was quite sweet, so Aiko would naturally dote on her later. ”But first, she would have to deal with those glares.”

”What’s wrong with ya all?” Aiko rolled her eyes. ”Find yourself someone else.” She shooed them away, and they were pulling out their Treasures.

Fang Jia finally recovered. ”Ummm.” She didn’t know what to say about this situation, since she didn’t really dislike it.

Her inner thoughts might be complicated, so much so that she leaked her inner thoughts. ”Do they not feed her properly, why is she so light?”

Aiko blinked and turned back to Fang Jia, her tails will be able to deal with the rest, so there was no need to worry.

”Because Humans are weak?” Aiko blinked innocently. ”It’s easier not to shake me off if I’m lighter, no?” She giggled mischievously, and Fang Jia blushed.

”You are so mean.” Fang Jia pouted like a puffer fish.

”Oh~?” Aiko hummed. ”Well~, I suppose we could go for round two~” She gently whispered to Fang Jia’s ears.

Fang Jia, who just recovered from her embarrassment, turned red again.

Aiko giggled even more mischievously as she wrapped her hands around her neck.

”Now, who was the bad girl today~?” Aiko hummed. ”Was it you or me~?”

Fang Jia turned her head. ”You.” She pouted, not really liking the teasing, since, for the most part, she was doted on and not being made fun of.

Aiko gave her a gentle peck. ”That’s bonus points for such a swift answer~!” She didn’t consider herself to be morally good, but she also didn’t care. None of these so-called Cultivators were morally right. All of them were just bastards concealing their desires.

Someone as cute and as obvious as the little Princess was a lot more desirable for Aiko.

Her reactions were also spectacular, so Aiko enjoyed her time~!

At this point, they all pulled their weapons.

”Aya, it seems I made someone upset.” Aiko giggled.

She dodged the incoming sword and swayed upright from Fang Jia’s lap.

”What will I do with you, Auntie... you are as dumb as you look.” Aiko sighed.

The Foxes attacked her, but Aiko was nimble. Her body shrunk, and the tiny Aiko ran away from the swords.

[You are being suppressed by the Secret World. All stats will be capped at the peak of Golden Core.]

Aiko blinked gently. She didn’t expect this one.

”Hihi, surprised~?” Auntie Fang giggled. ”That’s what you will get for harassing our Princess!”

”But she didn’t harass me!” Fang Jia glared at her Auntie. She finally could enjoy a nice company yet her ever-single Auntie ruined it!

”You don’t know much, but Demonic Foxes seduce their prey in order to consume their Souls. You were in danger, Fang Jia.” Auntie Fang said to Fang Jia.

”I was not in danger!” Since Fang Jia was half Fox, her senses were naturally sharper than Humans.

While the not-so-little Fox did play around, it was just that, and she didn’t spot any danger from her!

”You have a lot to learn, Princess...” Auntie Fang sighed. ”And you too, Demonic Fox.”

Aiko rolled her eyes. ”You are a pretty poor actor, you know.” She shook her head. ”But since you are with the Princess, I won’t hurt you too badly.” She shrugged.

”You still play tough when the Secret Realm suppresses you.” Auntie Fang shook her head, readying her weapon in order to slash Aiko.

”Ah, that flimsy thing, huh.” Aiko sighed. ’If I will it...’

Aiko could feel those invisible chains on her body. They creaked and cracked slowly.

[Secret Realm Law shattered! You are no longer suppressed!]

[9:59]

Aiko was back to her peak as the assailants approached. She smiled like a Demonic Fox would as her tails slammed into everyone, blasting her away.

She rolled one tail around the Human Cultivator and threw her under the Princess.

”Alright. We can fight~” Aiko hummed happily. She would definitely teach them a lesson with her tails!

”Impossible! You are supposed to be suppressed!” Auntie Fang coughed up blood thanks to the internal injury.

”Are you sure YOU are not a Demonic Fox?” Aiko tilted her head. ”You are so stupid that it hurts my head.” She sighed, shaking her head.

”Are you alright?” Fang Jia scurried next to the not-so-little Fox.

”Awwww~” Aiko gently pinched her cheek. ”Are you worried about me~?”

”Of course I am!” Fang Jia blushed, looking away. ”Auntie Fang is over-reacting.”

”If you are so worried about me, how about a kiss~?” Aiko nudged her gently.

Fang Jia blushed even more.

”No!” She was so embarrassed that she blurted it out.

”Awwww...” Aiko pouted, but then her brain clicked with a solution.

”Oh my~, you little pervert~” Aiko giggled, confusing the little Princess. ”You want to search if I have any injuries, right~? Where will you start~? Hmmmmm~?” She teased the little Princess, since she found her quite adorable.

Fang Jia went completely red in the face. ”That’s not it!” She stuttered while talking, and her redness reached even her neck!

”Oh~! I understand.” Aiko nodded gently. The Princess breathed a sigh of relief, but even that was short-lived...

”You don’t know how to find those injuries, I understand. Let’s go somewhere else, and I will undress myself and teach you~!” Aiko hummed mischievously.

There was a small explosion as steam rose from the Princess’s head.

Aiko gently caught her; it seemed like the teasing had gone overboard.

”Oops. I didn’t think she would faint.” Aiko stuck out her tongue, which angered the Auntie even more.

”Anyway. You wouldn’t happen to have a bed for her, right?” Aiko blinked innocently, but none would meet her eye.

The fact that she was not suppressed by the Secret Realm terrified them. They didn’t wish to antagonise her, so they didn’t meet with her eyes.

”Seriously, and you call yourself servants?!” Aiko was completely speechless. ”What are those Storage Rings on your fingers?! They are supposed to be filled with things that the Princess likes and what makes her comfortable, like a proper bed, dammit!” She was upset that her retainers were so clueless.

Aiko pulled out a few Spirit Crystals and placed them on the ground, with a few more furs, she created quite a nice bed.

”Right, where were we?” Aiko suddenly turned towards them to see the greed in their eyes.

”Right... I was supposed to beat you black and white, but I will settle for a simple test of Souls.” Aiko smiled like a devil.

”I will munch on your Souls, and whoever survives, will be allowed to leave alive~” She hummed like a true Demonic Fox.

”Demon.” Auntie Fang spat out.

”Hm, I suppose that is not wrong, but you attacked me first, so it’s only natural that I will do the same.” Aiko shrugged gently.
