Chapter 2361: Were They the Same Kind?
Ning Shu narrowed her eyes and observed Hong Ji’s tail. Were she and Hong Ji the same kind?
As for eating hearts, she thought, wasn’t that just a tall tale made by people who feared foxes?
Ning Shu also definitely didn’t believe that eating a heart would let her transform into a human form nor give her power.
Even if that was possible, those who obtained power by taking shortcuts like this would probably not make it to the end. If they were careless, it could cause irreversible consequences during their tribulations.
For instance, Bai Sanniang’s soul was nearly annihilated because of her inner demon.
Moreover, tribulations weren’t something a cultivator could avoid. It was how they could continue getting stronger.
If they couldn’t survive it, they’d have their soul scattered. They wouldn’t even get the chance to reincarnate.
If Hong Ji really did eat someone’s heart, her tribulations would be even much more severe.
Tribulation thunders were stronger than usual when they were meant for people who had negative karma or sins attached to them.
Not to mention that the heavens were also less tolerant and fond of non-human creatures.
Meanwhile, Yi Liang was terrified. This was the first time that he’d met a monster in human form. The monster also said that it had gotten that form by eating a scholar’s heart.
“You, you’re a fox spirit… What do you want to do to us?” Yi Liang said with feigned calm. His act was pretty good, except if one looked at his trembling calves.
Hong Ji tilted her head. “What’s wrong with me being a fox spirit? Aren’t you also accompanied by a fox spirit?
“Xiao Hei is different.” Xiao Hei never said that she wanted to eat his heart.
Hong Ji smiled sweetly. “Little boy, you’re so naive and gullible. She hasn’t eaten your heart because it’s not the right time yet.”
Ning Shu: What the fr*ck? This psycho!!
Ning Shu expressionlessly replied, “Does it benefit you to frighten him like that?”
“Of course. Anyways, this person has an ethereal spirit physique. Everyone who’s recognized it should get a share, so let’s divide him up together,” Hong Ji said with a smile.
Ning Shu rolled her eyes. What ethereal spirit physique? Yi Liang only ate the flame fruit, which purged his body of impurities, and cultivated the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. That was why he could absorb spiritual energy well.
That was also why Hong Ji thought that Yi Liang’s body was uniquely able to absorb and contain spiritual energy.
Ning Shu thought that Hong Ji was really weird. Even if she wanted to eat Yi Liang, did she really need to tell them?
What was the point of blabbing about it? She could just swallow him whole without talking so much.
Ning Shu had some other guesses inwardly. Could it be that Hong Ji wasn’t actually that powerful?
Ning Shu abruptly got up and rushed towards the relaxing Hong Ji. Hong Ji wasn’t on guard, so Ning Su easily pinned her down with a thud.
“What are you doing?” Hong Ji wanted to push Ning Shu away from her.
However, Ning Shu swiped a claw at her, then jumped heavily and slammed down on her body.
“Pfft…” Hong Ji, who was hit in the stomach, nearly vomited.
Yi Liang watched as Ning Shu continued to jump up and down on Hong Ji’s body. He didn’t know what to say.
“Waaah, you’re a bully! You’re bullying me…” Hong Ji burst out crying.
Ning Shu: …
Hong Ji turned into a fiery red fox with a poof. She snarled at Ning Shu tearfully and angrily scolded Ning Shu in a child’s voice, “You’re evil!”
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu could see that this little fox was younger than her. Judging from her voice, she was probably still an infant.
Yet she already could turn into a human form.
“That… Xiao Hei, she’s your kind!” Yi Liang’s fear instantly disappeared as soon as he saw the little red fox.
Ning Shu: …
