He had just been reborn when he was imprisoned by his nemesis, the Empress?

In just two days, Xu Yi, relying on his more than three thousand years of experience, his Star Realm cultivation, and the strength of his army, conquered a major city.

The city's defenders either surrendered or were killed in battle, causing Xu Yi's side almost no losses.

After capturing the city gate, Xu Yi did not rush to rest. After taking stock of the supplies and troops, he ordered the army to continue advancing steadily towards the capital.

As they reached the foot of a mountain, Xu Yi suddenly reined in his horse and his gaze fell on the roadside bushes.

Something seemed to be moving slightly in the grass, and a patch of snow-white could be vaguely seen, standing out conspicuously among the withered yellow weeds.

Xu Yi stepped forward, parted the weeds, and there was a fox inside.

The fox was pure white with no other colors, but its hind legs were covered in blood and gore. It was breathing weakly and cowering timidly in the hay.

Xu Yi was in a good mood, so upon seeing this, he bent down and carefully picked up the white fox.

The little one was soft and trembled gently in his palm, his glassy eyes filled with terror.

He lightly touched the fox's fur with his fingertips, muttering to himself:

Huh, it's a female.

It's just an ordinary fox, and it doesn't seem to have any cultivation. Even if we save it, it shouldn't cause too much karma, right?

At least he won't end up like Jiang Xuange, who came looking for him in the real world later.

Thinking this, Xu Yi felt relieved. He took out a bottle of healing pills from his pocket, poured out a pill, crushed it, and carefully fed it to the white fox's mouth.

Seeing that the fox obediently swallowed the pill, he took out the wound ointment, gently parted the fur on its hind legs, and applied the medicine to it.

When the medicine was applied, it touched the wound, and the little fox cried out in pain, letting out a few soft whimpers.

The voice was soft and delicate, with an indescribable allure and seduction.

Xu Yi snapped out of his daze, shook his head, turned to look at the three-meter-tall, burly man waiting not far away, and said loudly.

"Lu Chu, let the entire army rest here."

Lu Chu clasped his hands in acceptance of the order and turned to relay it.

Before long, the army set up camp on a clearing outside the dense forest, and smoke gradually rose from the chimneys.

Xu Yi found a clean tent to sit down, placed the white fox in his arms on a cushioned table, and carefully examined it.

The little guy was in better spirits now, licking his bandaged hind leg with his pink little tongue, his movements clumsy yet adorable.

Her glassy eyes glanced at Xu Yi from time to time, showing less fear and more curiosity.

For some reason, looking at the obedient and adorable little white fox on the table, Xu Yi always felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The feeling was subtle and indescribable, making him feel uneasy and his mind was in turmoil.

It was as if they were bewitched by something.

Perhaps it's because the little guy looks just too adorable.

He suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and couldn't help but reach out again to hug the little white fox back into his arms.

The little white fox offered no resistance, nestling quietly in his arms, though a faint purple light flickered deep within her eyes.

Xu Yi was completely unaware that all his attention was focused on the fluffy, soft tail behind the white fox.

Xu Yi was completely unaware of anything amiss, only feeling a soft, warm, and comforting bundle in his arms.

He looked down at the fluffy head of the little one in his arms and spoke softly.

"Little guy, how about you come with me from now on? What do you say?"

Seeing that the white fox only blinked and didn't move, Xu Yi added another sentence.

"Your silence means you agree."

Seeing this, Xu Yi chuckled to himself, then pondered...

"Now that you're with me, I should give you a more elegant name. How about... Black Whirlwind?"

arctic fox:......

It lazily flicked its snow-white tail and blinked its eyes with a hint of helplessness.

Xu Yi nodded to himself, once again spouting his own fallacious reasoning.

"If you don't speak, that means you're agreeing to this name."

As soon as Xu Yi finished speaking, the white fox raised its little head and gently bit his palm with its sharp little teeth, as if expressing its dissatisfaction.

The bites were light and playful, more like a playful nibble. Xu Yi clicked his tongue, feigning displeasure.

"Tsk! Why did you bite me? What a nice name."

Seeing the little white fox's resolute resistance, he sighed helplessly.

"Alright, alright, if you don't like it, then we'll find another one."

He pondered for a moment and said softly

"You're all white, and your eyes are like glass. How about we call you Bai Li (White Glass)?"

This time, the little white fox seemed truly satisfied, releasing its grip on his fingertip.

She stuck out her pink little tongue and gently licked his fingertip.

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head, sighing softly.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that you, an ordinary fox, would be so intelligent."

After a night's rest, the army regrouped and set off again, with Xu Yi once again initiating the plan to advance towards the capital.

In the blink of an eye, he had been in this dream world for four whole days.

Doubts gradually arose; according to real-world time conversion, more than half a day had already passed outside.

At this time in the past, Su Qingluan would have already done everything she could to wake him up. The fact that he's so quiet today is really strange.

As night fell, the army set up camp at the foot of a mountain. Xu Yi climbed alone to the cliff beside the camp, gazing at the full moon, and asked...

"System, can I leave this 'dream' world on my own?"

【Of course you can. Would you like to disconnect automatically now?】

Xu Yi responded without hesitation.

"Yes."

He was genuinely curious as to why Su Qingluan hadn't woken him up all day, and prepared to go out and check.

As soon as he finished speaking, everything went black.

When Xu Yi opened his eyes again, he was back inside the carriage.

He felt as if he were leaning against a soft, fragrant body, and the other person's head was gently resting against his own.

Xu Yi glanced sideways and saw that he was leaning on Su Qingluan's shoulder, while Su Qingluan's head was resting against his.

I wondered why she didn't wake me up; it turns out she had fallen asleep herself.

Xu Yi narrowed his eyes.

This is a great opportunity, absolutely a great opportunity. I must get revenge on this woman.

Although she may very well have woken up the moment she woke up, at least she is pretending to be asleep with her eyes closed.

This is a golden opportunity!!!

Since I'm going to get bullied anyway, I might as well have some fun first.

Without hesitation, Xu Yi held his breath, trying to keep his body completely still, and reached for the calligraphy brush on the table.

He held the small pen handle and quietly dipped it into the thick black ink in the inkstone.

Then he picked up a brush and applied it to Su Qingluan's face.
