Aiko walked deeper into this place, the scenery slowly shifted from a dark cave to a strange small town.

’The Treasure is not here...’

’The Treasure is hidden somewhere in here...?’

Even her Darkness was confused for some reason and Aiko didn’t know why.

’What do I do now?’ Aiko completely ignored the Humans walking around, while Fatty was looking around cautiously.

Why didn’t she react to those people?

They weren’t real. Her [Intention Perception] didn’t pick up anything and she couldn’t even bump into them.

Unlike the Fatty, who was avoided and stared at by them, they completely ignored Aiko’s presence.

Aiko rubbed her hands, this place might not have Treasure, but maybe there are some riches?

She ditched the Fatty the moment she could and walked through the walking Humans, disappearing from sight.

The Gluttonous Fox lost the Vicious Cub long ago and he was so terrified that he ran away from this place, panting heavily.

When that happened, the walking Humans suddenly paused and looked straight at the little Fox.

Aiko ignored them and walked around. She would curiously peek into the houses, but they were mostly empty. This was pretty much a ghost town, there were really no Treasures or anything worth anything around...

Aiko suddenly turned towards the Humans and tilted her head. ”There are no Treasures.” She spoke with the Humans like they were real.

”You know, I was warned that this place doesn’t have any Treasures.” Aiko babbled on and on.

She noticed a faint presence from her [Intention Perception]. She would talk until that person revealed themselves.

The Humans surrounded Aiko. Aiko was not concerned, but slightly upset.

”You know, I feel quite upset that this is just a ’Ghost’ town.” Aiko shook her head and looked around.

The Humans stretched their arms towards Aiko, ready to grab her.

Aiko tilted her head and frowned.

”Still nothing, huh...” Aiko was displeased by this presence.

She immediately released her Bloodlust before they could grab her.

Not only did it blast the Humans away, but the scenery in her close surroundings was also distorted.

”Hehehe~” Aiko laughed like a maniac and retrieved two strange rocks from her Storage Ring.

These rocks were given to her by Mei and they were supposed to create sparks when struck together.

Aiko immediately put that into motion.

”Hehe~, I can just burn this place~” Aiko kept striking the rocks against each other; creating quite the magnificent sparks, all while giggling like a maniac.

The sparks illuminated her small face and surroundings. Aiko was ready to burn this place down with her new and entertaining toy, when someone spoke up...

”Please stop.” An incredibly soft and feminine voice caressed Aiko’s ears.

Aiko immediately snapped towards that direction and ran towards it.

It was a Human or looked like one. It was indistinguishable from other Humans walking around.

Aiko wagged her tail with curiosity at her and the female in front of her pursed her lips.

The Human female didn’t know what to do with this overly excited little Fox. She would be able to throw her outside if at least one copy would touch her, but her intense bloodlust pretty much nullified her clones...

Aiko was very curious about her since there was nothing similar to the voice outside. This place was also very deserted, so she wondered if those voices were rivals or something.

”Why would you create this sad town?” While it did look like a town, it didn’t have any torches or candles to light it up. Aiko felt that this place was quite sad.

”There are always beings that can’t leave their place. I’m one such being.” The Human female spoke gently.

Aiko nodded, this felt like yet another deja vu. Did the Human Cultivators get off from being restricted or restrained?

Aiko tilted her head. ”I was told that there is a Treasure in here.” Aiko wagged her tail and her eyes shined. More Treasures was always a good thing and if it was good enough, Aiko would have yet another gift for Mei when she returned~!

”It’s that way.” The Human female helped this little Fox with a gentle smile.

But Aiko stiffened. This Human female had black hair that reached the ground. She had a modest figure, but at the same time, her curves would attract a lot of attention. She was dressed in full white, like those ’Immortals’ on walls back in the Inscription Testing Ground or whatever that was.

Aiko found her face likeable, but there was an odd feeling.

”You are not here.” Aiko tilted her head. ”Moreover, the Treasure is not over there.” Aiko denied her claim.

”Why are you not here? Why are you lying? Do you think it’s funny to lie to others? Why are you in white when you are like a green snake slithering around? You think you can fool me with such mediocre acting?” Aiko blasted that Ghost since she was denied the Treasure and lied to.

The Human female stiffened. She had never met such an audacious and loose-mouthed Fox...

”I didn’t lie.” She narrowed her eyes.

”That is garbage not a Treasure, give me the real Treasure.” Aiko made a grabbing motion towards the Human female. She would not leave until she was given the Treasure!

The Human female widened her eyes. ”You don’t like that?” She pointed in the direction of that cursed Cultivation Technique.

”It’s rubbish.” Aiko shook her head, but kept her hands high up with the grabbing position.

The Human female picked up Aiko, which she didn’t expect.

”Just because you are nice now doesn’t mean I won’t want the Treasure.” Aiko didn’t mind being carried like this since the person in question didn’t have any negative intentions.

It would be different if she had, but since she only lied and was pretty, Aiko was not as harsh with her.

”It’s been quite a while since someone called me a green snake.” She chuckled while carrying Aiko away from the town.

”But if you didn’t lie, you would be a strange white swan.” Aiko tilted her head.

”Why strange?” The Human female raised her eyebrow.

”Because you don’t fit in here. If I climbed some of the buildings, your white dress would attract my attention immediately in the sea of grey or black.” Aiko explained.

”What if that was my intention?” She nudged the little Fox, she was quite cute when she was cursing, comparable to those from Immortal World.

How strange that such a cute Fox was not already captured by the Immortal people...

”It wasn’t.” Aiko denied it. ”If it was you would still radiate a faint presence, but that was not the case.” Aiko shook her head. ”If I didn’t want to burn this place, you would not show yourself.”

The Human female smiled, not denying anything.

”Where are we going?” Aiko asked.

”You wanted a Treasure, but every Treasure needs a test.” The Human female smiled.

”What is your name?” Aiko suddenly asked. She had bad feelings about this whole test, as such, it would be better to get her name now so she could take revenge later on.

...

{Meanwhile on the Blood Fox’s end}

The Blood Fox crashed onto something soft, yet firm.

She was curious about what it was so she tried to feel it.

Suddenly she could feel something going after her so she elegantly swayed; standing up.

The Mirage Fox was awkwardly frozen in grabbing motion. The Blood Fox was staring at him sharply.

”I was worried you were injured.” The Mirage Fox spoke with honeyed words.

The Blood Fox’s eyes softened as they got hazy.

Seeing that his Divine Ability somewhat worked on her, he felt that there was something wrong with the Vicious Cub...

”I’m fine.” The haze disappeared and the Mirage Fox frowned.

’Maybe they are all abnormal?’ He could not understand how someone could so easily shake off his DIVINE Ability!

Divine Abilities were no joke and it could be said that resistance was futile! Yet another fox was able to shake it off like it was nothing?! Absurd! Unbelievable!

The Mirage Fox stood up with a soft smile and brushed his clothes. ”I’m glad you are alright.” He would naturally not show his inner emotions as it would be bad if the Passion Fox put a strong guard against him.

He had the greatest lust for Passion Fox, unlike the Shadow Passion which had the Passion as a secondary nickname. The Passion Fox had it as the main.

These kinds of nicknames were bestowed by his Master to those that would make the greatest fuck toys. Their leading member would then be assigned the nickname ’Passion Fox’.

If he could sway her to his side, his Master would surely reward him handsomely.

The perverted Elders’ plans went awry when the Elder Punisher kidnapped the Passion Fox, but what was even worse was the fact that she was contracted!

The Vicious Cub was almost always hidden, so they couldn’t find a way to sever that contract and kidnap the Passion Fox for themselves.

Most Elders were obsessed with the Massage Chair The Heavenly Massage Parlour was freaking expensive, not to mention that they were unable to completely relieve them, so they were obsessed with what the Vicious Cub created.

The good Elders raged, yet the Grandmaster was happily jumping around praising the Massage Chair!? What is this injustice that they couldn’t try it out before the business was shut down?!

Moreover, it was shut down by the filthy rapists, so they couldn’t even do anything about it!

They swore that if it happened again they would absolutely go to war with those sleazeballs!

The Mirage Fox smiled gently towards the Passion Fox, he would be able to capture her with enough time, but he would have to be careful about the power.

He will have to reduce the effect to a minimum in order to extend its duration for as long as possible.

They walked through the cave, the Blood Fox was trying to find her teammates since she didn’t want to stay with this guy.

He felt really nice, so much so that the Blood Fox was grossed by it. There was something fundamentally wrong about that feeling, but she could not find the reason...

She could only walk at her tempo, as she knew that the Mirage Fox would not be able to keep up. That was her plan at least, but there was a feeling that drew her closer to him for some reason.

She liked that feeling, which creeped her out and made her speed up, but each time she thought she would finally shake him off she ran into a dead end, which forced her to backtrack towards him again.

The Mirage Fox was smiling. The Passion Fox was becoming more restless, which would make the [Soul Bound] much easier to affect her.

He already [Soul Bound] the Shadow Passion. He could turn her weak with a simple thought and combined with his experienced fingers; he would be able to easily seduce any Fox.

It was still commendable that the Passion Fox lasted for this long, but it was only a matter of time before the [Soul Bound] took care of it.

His Divine Ability was called [Soul’s Temptation] and it would be able to subdue Souls. Normally that meant that he would subdue Ghost and make an army of them, but because of his generous Master, his Sacred Treasure was able to affect the living too~!

The Blood Fox didn’t give up that easily and kept searching for Aiko and Umbra...
