"Waaa... wooo..."

  The moment Lord Huo Guan knelt down, the phoenixes that were originally lying on the ground all stared blankly.

  The dignified Lord Huo Guan is of such stature and demeanor that this one kneel of his is no different from a deafening thunderclap.

  The little foxes all stared blankly at the usually stern and unsmiling Master Fox Officer, who was now kneeling on one knee with his head bowed. However, the Master Fox Officer himself seemed completely unaffected by the people around him, his face still cold and expressionless, only his icy eyes quietly gazing at Yunmian.

  Dong Qing's imposing manner undoubtedly stunned Yun Mian as well. She let out a stifled sob and seemed to want to retreat, but quickly came to her senses and understood the other party's intention.

  At this moment, the scene should be quite embarrassing, but the main character, Huo Guan Da Ren, knelt down and made it seem like she was a decent half-baked young mistress, while also making the surrounding Feng clan officers who were prostrating on the ground not so conspicuous, as if it was just normal...

  Yunmian was still quite bewildered, thinking that she half understood but didn't really get it. However, she roughly grasped that the main seat Fox Officer wanted to have it both ways and gave the Phoenix tribe's military officers a way out. She hastily straightened her back, pretending to be very serious, let out a loud "Ah!" and then jumped onto the hand extended by the main seat Fox Officer in a daze.

  The main fox official used one hand to hold the cloud bed steadily in his hand, and then stood up straight.

  After getting up, Winter Qing's cold eyes swept to the side and asked: "The young master and his wife have already seen the reception, why haven't you gotten up yet?"

  “……！”

  "A soldier stared blankly and said: 'Can I...can we get up now?'"

  "Nature. Aren't you bowing to Young Master's wife?"

  Winter is clear.

  "Although it's good manners to wait a while, there's no need to delay for so long. Since the young master and his wife have already seen you, please get up."

  The Feng tribe officers were actually stunned by the terrifying Feng tribe's pressure and didn't realize they could get up after being shocked by one change after another. When Dong Qing said this, their faces turned red, and they all understood that Dong Qing was saving their face without making a sound. They quickly transformed into human form and hastily scrambled to their feet.

  Dong Qing turned to face the young Tian Guan of the Phoenix Clan and said, "Since the Young Master's wife and the other little foxes have come looking for me, I'll take them to my dojo first. As for the remaining Phoenix Clan warriors, would you mind arranging their accommodations?"

  Young Feng Guan was also slightly distracted at this moment, but after hearing Dong Qing's words, he politely cupped his hands and said: "Don't worry, Master Huo Guan, I will handle things well here. Please take your time, Master Huo Guan, Young Master and Madam, and... these little fairy friends, take your time too."

  Young Feng Guan bid farewell to them one by one, and Yun Mian, who was in the palm of the main seat Hu Guan, turned around uncomfortably, trying to stand up from his shoulder to look back, but was touched on the head by the main seat Hu Guan without warning.

  "Huh?"

  Yunmian shrunk back, shook his fur, and subconsciously lifted his head, but only saw the unchanging chin and sharp profile of Lord Huo's side face.

  He turned around with an expressionless face, holding Yunmian, and left gracefully.

  The little foxes all followed in a hurry, they were obviously very happy. One of the lively little foxes even jumped up and down in front of several Feng tribe soldiers, proudly wagging her tail! She turned around to see that everyone else had already walked a bit far away, afraid of not being able to catch up, she hastily ran to chase after them.

  Young Feng Guan politely escorted them to bid farewell, and waited until Dong Qing led a group of small foxes with a moon-white body that could no longer be seen before turning his head to look at those Feng tribe warriors.

  ...Qingqiu Zhuzhi Huoguan Daren said that these people would be "placed" by him, then as the Tian Guan of the Feng tribe's visiting guests, he must show some attitude.

  Young Feng Guan sighed in his heart and when he saw this group of military officers, he sternly shouted: "What's going on with you guys?!"

  The Feng clan soldier who had only heard about the situation on the other side of Yunmian's encounter trembled and said, "Sir, you don't know that the little white fox has a very strong phoenix aura..."

  "Phoenix Breath?"

  Young people frown, but don't believe in Taoism.

  "That little white fox is the young master's wife of Qingqiu. You can say that she has a strong immortal aura, but how could she have a phoenix aura......"

  The young man was about to scold him, but heard that Feng Zu Wu Guan hastily interjected: "It's true!"

  This Feng tribe military officer has a rough temperament, is very careless and easily gets carried away with himself. Just now he was still quite arrogant, but after calming down and sobering up from the wine, he's starting to feel a bit uneasy.

  He said: "The little white fox's phoenix energy seems to come from the bell on her neck, and that breath, it's a bit like..."

  At this time, Jin Hong, who had been waiting in the courtyard next door all along, was still observing from the sidelines. He was curious about what had happened at the Xian Palace, but that young Feng Guan had left and no one had passed on any information to him. His own cultivation was far away and he couldn't hear clearly, so he could only see a few people's mouths opening and closing.

  Jin Hong was so anxious that he glared, he actually wanted to figure out whether Yun Mian was the young master's wife or not, vaguely guessing that they were discussing Yun Mian, but also knowing that if he rashly intervened while doing his job, his uncle would scold him, and could only stand there waiting.

  Jin Hong stomped his foot impatiently and looked in the direction where Huo Guan had walked away with Yun Mian, as if staring harder would allow him to hear some details.

  On the other hand, the main character, Huo Guan, held Yunmian and left, walking all the way to the Daochang, where he gently laid her down on the ground.

  "...... Wooo, thank you."

  Yunmian was held by Hu Guan all the way, feeling a bit embarrassed, and quickly jumped down from his palm with her small paws.

  Master Huo Guan has always been difficult to read, and although it was due to the unexpected situation of the Feng tribe, Yunmian still felt uneasy being brought back to the Daochang in such a grand manner, as if he were holding onto some kind of fierce fox.

  She retracted her claws, thought for a moment, and sincerely thanked him: "Thank you, sir, for coming to pick us up, and also for the matter with Lord Feng..."

  "It doesn't matter."

  Winter clears the mind.

  He glanced at the little foxes and asked, "Was it your master who sent you here to find me?"

  "Yes!"

  Yunmian hastily replied, "Yes, it was the teacher from the school who told us to come and tell you that we've almost finished practicing archery with the Feng tribe."

  As she spoke, Yunmian turned back uncertainly and glanced at Xiaoyue with a questioning gaze.

  Xiao Yue nodded vigorously in response.

  "So that's how it is."

  The official in charge of the fox spirits listened to such ambiguous words, but his expression remained calm and seemingly unsurprised.

  He nodded slightly and said: "I understand, you can go back and report to your master."

  "Ahh!"

  "Ahhhroo!"

  Now that the task is complete, they can go home. The originally tense little foxes suddenly relaxed and happily hopped around in place.

  Yunmian was also happily jumping around, but at this time, the main fox official glanced at her and asked: "By the way, what's going on with those Feng officials from Nan Yushan suddenly bowing to you earlier?"

  "Huh?"

  The voice of Zhu Wei, the Fox Official, was as calm and tranquil as usual, but Yunmian was taken aback. She tilted her head in confusion and said, "I'm not quite sure either."

  Yunmian didn't quite understand until the moment before the accident, she was still trying to persuade that fierce-looking Feng tribe warrior, and then in the next instant, she felt a very strong fairy wind gushing out from her side, rushing straight towards those phoenixes...

  That gust of immortal wind appeared suddenly, but the breath it contained had a familiar and reassuring feeling that made her feel puzzled yet surprised and delighted...

  Yunmian couldn't recall the details, and wandered aimlessly on the spot. Her rather carefree mood was transmitted to the wind chimes, which swayed and emitted a clear ringing sound.

  "Right!"

  A bright light appeared before Yun's eyes as he said, "That wisp of immortal energy just appeared, and my bell rang once! The sound it emitted felt somewhat different from usual..."

  As she spoke, Yunmian lowered her head and jumped up and down on the ground with all her might, making the golden bell ring out even more melodious tinkling sounds.

  The chief officer was taken aback and said, "...... Come here and let me take a look."

  Yunmian quickly ran over and showed the bell on his neck to Master Huo.

  The hostess picked up the small flower-shaped golden bell with her fingers and played with it lightly in her hand.

  This wasn't an ordinary bell, but a divine artifact with its own spiritual energy. When the main fox official held it in his hand and turned it over to examine it, he could hear it emitting a faint tinkling sound. As soon as he felt the spiritual energy on the bell, the main fox official paused, and a look of surprise appeared on his normally calm face.

  "He asked: '---This bell, where did you come from?'"

  "I remember it was around my neck before I fell asleep."

  She carefully observed the expression on the face of the main seat fox official, and this time she lowered her ears and asked worriedly: "...... Is there something wrong with it?"

  "No, it's not like that. It's a good thing, you can keep it."

  "Oh."

  Yunmian finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

  The host official looked at Yunmian's appearance, thought for a moment, and didn't say much. He cleared his throat and said, "Since you don't have anything else to do, you can leave on your own."

  "Ah!" "Thank you, sir!"

  The little foxes on the side had been waiting impatiently and didn't dare to play by themselves in front of Master Fox Officer, but as soon as Dong Qing took the initiative to bid farewell, they all jumped up lively and said goodbye to Master Fox Officer!

  Yunmian also bid farewell, she hastily went to the main seat of Huo Guan Daoren, shook her tail and said goodbye, but ran out a few steps and curiously turned back, seeing Dongqing had already closed his eyes and was meditating, only then did she spread her paws and quickly ran away.

  This time, Yunmian ran very far without looking back.

  She played and frolicked with the other little fox girls all the way, then bid them farewell at the fork in the road and skipped back to the wooden house alone.

  Yunmian skillfully opened the door and saw Wen Ting spread out many sheets of notes, reviewing the techniques they had learned from Master Huo during the New Year's period. He slightly furrowed his brow, occasionally using his forehead and paws to adjust the position of the papers, looking very serious.

  Yunmian was overjoyed at the sight of Xiang's little white fox form, letting out a loud "Waaaah!" as she sprinted towards him and dove into his arms with a thud!

  Wen Ting was knocked by her and fell directly to the ground, and the two rolled together for two rounds.

  Wen Ting was taken aback for a moment, and Pian Yun was still sleeping, unaware of the situation. She snuggled into his arms and rubbed against him vigorously.

  Although being held by the main fox official and playing with other little foxes is also fun, she still likes to smell the courtyard the most, feeling at ease only when she is by his side, and can't help but want to be together with him.

  Yunmian happily rubbed back and forth, but Wen Ting felt a bit helpless. He had sensed Yunmian's return earlier, but hadn't expected her to suddenly pounce into his arms.

  Wen Ting lowered his head and gently bumped her, just about to speak, but his nose twitched as he caught a whiff of the scent on Yun Mian's body.

  Wen Ting's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she asked, "......the scent of Dong Qing on you is quite strong, how come?"
