There was a faint smile on Xiao Chongyu's lips. He raised his hand and rubbed it on her head. It was soft, fine and felt very good, but not as soft as fox fur.
Then, he casually walked around the little girl who reached his waist. The smile in her eyes was still there, but she was completely indifferent.
"Little fox, go back and play with your adults. I'll let you go this time. If you try to hurt someone again and I find out, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Su Yu clenched her fists: "Stop! Don't leave!"
The person not far away didn't stop at all, and didn't look back. It seemed that he didn't hear this sentence at all, or didn't take it seriously at all.
Damn it, being looked down upon!
Su Yu raised her hand and launched an attack: "Stinky Taoist, watch your moves!"
Xiao Chongyu casually dismissed the attack and said in a lazy voice, "Little fox, are you tickling me?"
Su Yu: "..."
What a vicious irony.
[Is the male protagonist really practicing the ruthless path? Aren’t all ruthless guys in the ruthless path so cold and handsome? Why does he deserve a beating so much? 】
Without saying a word, the system passed on the original plot.
"Xiao Chongyu's ruthlessness is strange.
Enter the Tao with emotion, enter the world with emotion, and cultivate the Tao without mercy.
He is a casual and unruly person, but he is compassionate towards all living beings and cannot bear the suffering of the world. He seems to have affection for everyone but is ruthless to everyone. No one can get into his heart and no one can see his true feelings.
Seemingly affectionate but ruthless, there is affection everywhere but ruthlessness everywhere.
It's called the ruthless way. "
This is the introduction to Xiao Chongyu's ruthless way in the original plot, which is very difficult to pronounce and obscure.
Su Yu understood: [Just like Neptune, he seems to love everyone, but actually loves no one. 】
System: [...It can also be understood this way. 】
Xiao Chongyu hadn't walked for long when his eyes blurred again, and a child with his leg caught in a trap suddenly appeared in front of him.
The child was about four or five years old. His legs were bloody and his eyes were big and bright with tears. He looked over pitifully: "Brother, can you come and save me?"
This time the illusion was much more real than before.
It's a pity that the little fox is still too young. If a child as big as a mortal was caught in a trap like this, he would have fainted from crying and would have the sense to ask for help.
Little did he know how unexpected it would be to see a child caught in a animal trap suddenly appear in this wilderness without even a bush of grass.
There was a slight smile in his eyes: "Why, don't you call me a smelly Taoist priest this time?"
Su Yu stiffened and her round eyes suddenly opened wide, as if she didn't expect to be discovered so soon.
As the man flicked his sleeve, the illusion mirror in front of him suddenly collapsed.
Su Yu's eyes were frightened, and her original shape appeared uncontrollably. Her neck was pinched and lifted up, and her four paws were folded in front of her chest without moving.
"Tell me, what are you doing following me all the time?"
The little fox was red all over, with smooth and shiny fur. It looked like he was well-raised. The tail behind him was fluffy and curled, and the fluffy hair brushed against his wrists, making it feel a little itchy.
Xiao Chongyu couldn't help but stroke it, and it felt as good as he imagined.
Su Yu's body suddenly froze, and her tone was fierce: "Go away, go away, don't touch my tail!"
"My cultivation level is not high, but my temper is quite bad."
Xiao Chongyu chuckled: "As for me, I happen to be short of a fox fur scarf. If you don't obey me, then I might not be short."
In Su Yu's ears, it automatically translated to, if you don't obey me, I will skin you and make a scarf.
Su Yu opened her eyes in horror.
"Can you tell me now why you follow me? Huh?"
Su Yu stammered: "I, I want... to want your heart."
"my heart?"
Xiao Chongyu looked down at his chest and said in a joking tone: "If you lose your heart, you will die. Do you want to kill me?"
Su Yu shook her head, her voice innocent and childish, and extremely serious: "But I want to save my mother."
"My mother said before that the human heart is the best tonic for monsters. As long as she eats your heart, she will definitely get better." The little fox said crisply.
Those beautiful eyes were still innocent, not knowing what a cruel thing they were saying.
Suddenly, she thought of something and her eyes lit up: "You are so powerful, you can definitely save my mother. Brother Taoist priest, can you save my mother?"
He was a stinky Taoist priest before, but now he is a Taoist brother.
The little fox is able to adapt to the wind.
but……
Xiao Chongyu lowered his eyes. To be able to say such words, the little fox's mother didn't sound like a nice monster.
…
Looking at the simple but warmly decorated cave in front of him, Xiao Chongyu faintly averted his eyes, and his eyes fell on the little girl who was leading the way, jumping and walking briskly.
Still too naive.
Just like that, he brought a stranger into his territory, a stranger who had shown malice before.
The little guy will never survive half a month alone.
"Brother Taoist, hurry up, it's right in front."
The little fox urged, taking him deeper into the cave.
Xiao Chongyu habitually raised a hint of vigilance, but still walked casually and said lazily: "I know."
There was a faint light visible deep in the cave, and fist-sized spiritual beads were embedded in the stone wall like a circle, emitting a faint light and illuminating the dim cave.
In the center, there is a stone bed, with a white-furred fox lying quietly on it.
With just one glance, Xiao Chongyu was sure that the fox was dead.
The little fox transformed into its original shape, jumped on the stone bed and rubbed against the big fox, saying in a friendly voice: "Mom, wake up quickly, I'm looking for someone to save you."
The big fox didn't move.
There was a little confusion in the little fox's eyes: "Mom fell asleep and didn't wake up for several days."
She doesn't know yet what this means.
She looked at Xiao Chongyu and said in a brisk tone with innocent trust: "Brother Taoist priest, please save my mother quickly."
Xiao Chongyu stood still and said in a calm voice, "It can't be saved."
"She's dead."
Bringing back the dead is something that even the gods of Da Luo cannot do.
The little fox turned into a human form, frowned unhappily, and held the big fox in his arms: "Don't talk nonsense, mother was just injured and fell asleep."
"If you don't want to save me, forget it. I'll find a way myself."
She bared her teeth fiercely: "When I grow up, I will be very powerful. I will kill the old wolf on the hill next door and let him hurt my mother!"
The soft face showed a fierce expression, just like a three-year-old child saying that he would beat an eight-foot strong man to death, which made people laugh.
"She's dead."
Xiao Chongyu repeated it, cruelly revealing the truth.
"She didn't!"
The little fox's eyes opened wide, and big tears fell down like pearls, wetting the fur of the white fox in his arms.
"My mother would comfort me when I cried before."
Xiao Chongyu just watched quietly.
For a long time, the little fox was still crying and had no intention of stopping.
He sighed softly and handed over a handkerchief.
"Stop crying and wipe your tears."
That's all, it can be regarded as a prestige. Although he is a demon, he is no different from a child after all.
It took the little fox a long time to accept the fact that his mother was dead. He stared blankly at the corpse of the fox in his arms. His eyes were big and blank, which was particularly pitiful.
Finally, Xiao Chongyu helped the little fox bury her mother in the back mountain.
The ruthless sword that was bound to be stained with blood when unsheathed carved an inscription on it, and killed the wolf demon who sneaked over to inquire about the situation, which was regarded as revenge for her.
