Since the sky was covered, the heavens began to show their holiness

The two-tailed fox in the bath seemed to have noticed something, paused, slowly raised its head, and looked in the direction of Zhou Xian with wet eyes. The moment it saw Zhou Xian, it seemed to be cast under a spell, its whole body froze, and the claws that were originally combing its hair also stopped in mid-air. It looked at Zhou Xian with a confused face, its eyes full of confusion and bewilderment, and it was obvious that it had not figured out the situation yet.

"Still washing? I'll take you in."

Zhou Xian narrowed his eyes slightly, and his deep gaze was fixed on the two-tailed fox, as if he was sizing up a prey that was about to be caught.

The two-tailed fox finally woke up from its dream. But its reaction was beyond Zhou Xian's expectation. In an instant, it plunged its entire body into the water like a frightened rabbit, splashing a circle of small water. After the water surface returned to calm, only its little head was still exposed, with wet ears tightly attached to its head, and a pair of eyes full of vigilance and embarrassment, just like a shy girl taking a bath, but was suddenly barged in by someone, full of panic and confusion.

Seeing the two-tailed fox like this, Zhou Xian was slightly startled at first. His eyes, originally sharp as an eagle, gradually softened, and a different ripple appeared in his eyes unconsciously. He secretly complained in his heart, and said to himself with a sigh, "Damn, has he been single for too long? How can even a fox look handsome?"

After saying that, he shook his head slightly, trying to dispel the inexplicable throbbing in his heart. But the throbbing was like a wildfire ignited by a spark, spreading uncontrollably in his heart, and the momentum became stronger and stronger.

Zhou Xian was quick to sense that something was wrong, and his heart was filled with alarm. He stared at the two-tailed fox in the water, thinking to himself, and his originally relaxed expression suddenly became serious.

"No, there's something strange about this fox."

He murmured in a low voice, his tone full of confidence, and the aura around him became tense as he focused on being on guard against the seemingly harmless yet eerie two-tailed fox in front of him.

Almost at the moment he realized something was wrong, Zhou Xian's vigorous mental power surged out like a surging wave, quickly spreading around like an invisible net, trying to uncover the secret of the strange two-tailed fox in front of him.

But in the blink of an eye, he caught a glimpse of something strange. At this moment, there was a faint and extremely strange breath in the air. The breath was like an invisible thread, gently teasing his nerves, with an indescribable sense of charm, as if tempting him to let down all his guard.

"It is said that the fox demon in the legend is best at the art of charm, which is used to fascinate the mind and defeat the enemy. Good fellow, if I hadn't heard about it before, I might have really fallen for it."

Zhou Xian narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on the two-tailed fox in the water, his eyes showing both vigilance and a hint of inquiry. The alluring aura that permeated the air made him feel that this fox was not simple.

Seeing that his charm, which had always worked, had lost its effect on Zhou Xian, a trace of panic flashed in the two-tailed fox's green eyes.

The next second, its hair suddenly exploded, and with a whoosh, it leaped out of the water like a flash of white lightning. Its body was nimble, and its four claws quickly paddled in the air. In the blink of an eye, it flew to the other side of the river, so fast that only a blurry white afterimage was left.

However, Zhou Xian would not let the two-tailed fox escape easily. Before it could touch the river bank, an invisible and powerful force, like an airtight net, instantly bound it tightly.

Its body seemed to be frozen in mid-air, struggling in vain. It waved its limbs vigorously, paddling in the air, its eyes wide open, revealing fear and confusion.

But the ground that was so close now seemed like the horizon that was out of reach. No matter how hard it tried, it couldn't get any closer. "Want to leave?"

Zhou Xian's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He raised his hand calmly and waved it gently, as if controlling an invisible thread. The two-tailed fox that was originally suspended in the air and struggling in vain, was like being caught by an invisible big hand, and flew towards him rapidly.

The two-tailed fox was horrified when it saw this, and its instinct for survival made it struggle even more violently. Its four claws frantically swiped in the air, leaving a trail of afterimages, and its body twisted non-stop, trying to break free from the invisible force.

But the force followed it like a shadow, tightly binding it, with no sign of weakening. It could only watch itself getting closer and closer to Zhou Xian, its eyes full of fear, its mouth making sharp cries, trying in vain to escape the fate of being captured, but in the end it could not change the outcome of flying straight towards Zhou Xian.

"嘤嘤嘤!!"

Although the two-tailed fox screamed at the top of its lungs, the sharp cry cut through the air, as if to vent all the fear and unwillingness in its heart. However, the cry was not intimidating at all, but rather sounded like the whimper of a kitten, with a hint of helplessness and pity.

"Good fellow, it's no use to act like a spoiled child, just come here obediently."

Zhou Xian suddenly stretched out his hand and accurately grasped the two-tailed fox's tail, lifted the two-tailed fox in front of him, and with a sharp gaze, he moved closer to look at it carefully, trying to see the difference between this fox and other magical beasts.

Zhou Xian held the two-tailed fox's tail, and looked at it carefully with his eyes. He turned its ears, checked its teeth, and even poked its belly, trying to find some clues from this strange creature. But time passed little by little, and he studied it for a long time. In addition to confirming that this two-tailed fox looked special, he did not find any valuable clues.

Its fur is no different from that of an ordinary fox, and there is nothing special about its body structure except for the two legs. At most, its skills are a little weird.

Looking at the two-tailed fox again, it actually showed a very human look of despair at this moment. Since its tail was tightly grasped by Zhou Xian, it felt like it was struck by lightning, and all the strength in its body seemed to be drained in an instant. Its originally lively eyes were dim, revealing deep despair, and two lines of tears slid down its furry cheeks.

Its head drooped, its ears hung limply, and its limbs hung limply in the air. It no longer struggled, as if it had completely given up resistance. Its pitiful appearance made people feel a little bit sorry for it.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. I'll just study your skills and let you go after I'm done."

Zhou Xian shook his head helplessly, with a smile flashing in his eyes, as if he was amused by the aggrieved look of the two-tailed fox.
