The Turning Point of Fate
The exquisite silver bell landed in Xia Keke's palm. The others couldn't help but look over, only to discover that there was nothing special about the bells.
They weren't as shiny as gems, nor were they as spiritual as treasures.
From its plain appearance, it seemed to be nothing more than an ordinary string of bells.
"You've chosen?"
Lady Providence's expression flickered when she saw the string of bells, but she still asked this question.
Xia Keke bit her lip and pouted. Then she turned around and stared at the crack for a long time. The gems were all so beautiful. She really, really wanted them.
Her puckered lips made it clear that she was conflicted ….
"I …. I'll still take them."
As she spoke, Xia Keke tightened her grip on the bells.
When the others heard this, they couldn't help but stare blankly. To tell the truth, even Xiao Yumei could tell that the value of the bells couldn't compare to the mountain of gems. As for the treasures, they couldn't compare at all.
However, even after Lady Providence had asked, she'd insisted on keeping the bells.
The others couldn't help but wonder if there was something special about the bells that attracted Xia Keke.
Hearing Xia Keke's affirmation, Lady Providence nodded and smiled. She didn't ask any more questions, but closed the crack.
Xia Keke watched pitifully as the crack grew smaller and smaller, until the gems disappeared from her sight.
"Actually, these bells are actually quite important to me. When I got them, I was still a child and hadn't taken human form yet," said Lady Providence with a smile.
When Lady Providence saw their expressions, she couldn't help but laugh, "That's right, I'm actually a yao too.
"That's right. Actually, I'm also a demon. It's actually related to you."
"Me?" Su Liu 'er arched her brows.
"My true form is that of a fox, but I'm just an ordinary fox yao. I can't compare to you nine-tailed foxes, which are primordial divine beasts. For tens of thousands of years, there hasn't been a single beast in my clan that has taken human form. Being able to live until the end of our lives is already a blessing. Most of us were captured by hunters and became the pets of wealthy merchants, or stripped of our fur to become decorations for noble young ladies. "
"Some humans really do deserve to be executed!" said Su Liu 'er viciously.
"The weak are prey to the strong. There's nothing to be resentful about. At that time, our race was weak. Not to mention, our race couldn't even be considered a demon race. At most, we were wild beasts … Our fate was to be bullied and humiliated by mortals. "
As she spoke, Lady Providence's expression was calm and tranquil.
"Wild beasts eat man, and man eats wild beasts. The cycle of the Heavenly Dao was normal. Take your Nine-tailed Fox Clan for example. Don't tell me you're vegetarian every day? "
"…"
"Wild beasts and demonic beasts are separated by a single word, but the difference is ten thousand miles. Demonic Beasts and Spirit Beasts differed by just one word, but they were also thousands of miles apart. Some races were born to be hunted, cooked, and played by humans or demons. This was their fate! But I don't believe in fate! "
When Lady Providence said those last words, her body involuntarily emanated a majestic aura.
She was no longer the weak fox demon from back then. She was the supervisor of the Six Realms Inspection Division. She had the power to decide the life and death of billions of people.
She was supreme, and because of her existence, her race lived well in the God Realm.
Even if they were the most ordinary of fox demons, they would still have to be courteous to her clansmen in the God Realm.
Because she was the God Realm's Lady Providence!
She was the God Emperor's favorite. Whether it was the God Realm, the Yao Realm, or the Demon Realm, all of them had to treat her with caution.
Her appearance had elevated her once weak race. Her race was no longer an ordinary race of demonic beasts, but a race of holy beasts!
In the Yao Realm, they had a transcendent status. They were practically on par with the primordial holy beasts.
"However, I actually have to rely on a benefactor to be able to achieve what I have today. If it weren't for my mediocre fox body, even if I didn't believe in fate, I'd still be nothing more than a joke. And that expert is the owner of this string of bells. It was also her appearance that changed my originally mediocre life. "
Lady Providence gazed at the bells in Xia Keke's hands, her expression one of nostalgia ….
"Back then, in order to escape the humans' pursuit ….."
…..
Rustle.
"Where did that little fox run off to? Everyone, look carefully. This little bastard bit our princess. If you let that little fox get away, you'll all be waiting for your heads to fall off. "
A piercing cry rang out from the forest. Dozens of green-robed bailiffs with arrow baskets on their backs carefully paced through the forest, their eyes constantly scanning their surroundings.
They were chasing a fox, and the princess had specifically asked for that fox.
Their princess was deeply loved by the emperor, but her temperament was rather tyrannical. If they let the fox get away, it might really be just as the maidservant had said: they'd all be separated from their heads.
For the sake of their lives, they had to search for the little fox with all their might.
At this time, in the bushes between the trees, a little fox that was about 30 centimeters long was shivering and hiding inside.
Its snow-white fur was stained with blood, and its red eyes flickered with terror. Its tiny body was covered by the weeds as it trembled.
It was terrified. In the past, many of its uncles and aunts had been captured by these people.
The elders of its clan had told it to run if it saw people dressed like this. If it fell into their hands, its life would be ruined.
It had always remembered these words, until today …..
It had met this group of people.
A beautiful woman wanted to capture it, but it refused to comply and bit the woman.
The woman screamed crazily and ran away, but the green-robed bailiffs shot it in the leg.
It couldn't run anymore.
"There's blood here."
Someone suddenly shouted from among the bailiffs in the forest, and the surrounding bailiffs all ran over. One of the older bailiffs squatted down and wiped the blood on the ground with his hand. He took a look and sniffed.
"The blood is still very fresh. That little fox definitely couldn't have gotten far after being shot by our arrows. It should be hiding in the bushes nearby. Stay alert and don't let it get away. "
"Yes."
The bailiffs responded and carefully searched the surrounding bushes. As their footsteps got closer, the little fox hiding in the bushes became more and more afraid.
"Over here ….."
The bailiffs found the hiding bush. The bailiffs called out to the surrounding people. When the little fox saw them, it ran for its life.
"Nock the arrows."
As the older bailiffs spoke, the surrounding young bailiffs nocked arrows on their bows.
When the little fox turned around and saw the arrows, it was as frightened as a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow. It wanted to run as far away as possible …..
Dong.
"Eh, what a silly little fox."
