The rumor of the huli-jing, the werefox, spread through Lotus Pier at the speed of light. Men drank in every word about her beauty, women scowled angrily, worried about their husbands, children clung to their mothers in fear. No one knew the reason for this creature's anger.

Jiang Cheng stared at the papers tensely - the residents' pleas for salvation. Mostly written by women, worried about their men. He peered at the paper carefully before standing up abruptly. Fairy, sleeping at his feet, yapped in displeasure, but then fell asleep again, ignoring her master's uncle.

"Gather an army!" gray, almost metallic eyes shone with bloodlust. The servants quickly hurried to convey the leader's decree to the soldiers. "Today there will be a fox hunt."

He could not risk people any more. A terrible thought crept into your heart - his nephew could become the next victim. Jiang Cheng will not allow this.

You slowly wander through the market, feeling a bunch of eyes on you. You smile - charmingly, sweetly and enchantingly. A young man immediately runs up to you, offering to help you carry the bags of groceries. His girlfriend shouts after him, indignantly. A new victim. Your eyes gleamed dangerously unnoticed, and your tails, hidden under your hanfu, playfully twitched.

You nod, agreeing.

People never saw him again.

Screams, torches burn and loud footsteps are heard in the forest. You quickly run away, hearing the noise behind you.

You jumped behind a tree, instantly turning into a little fox. The adrenaline made you run and run, even when Zidian's tip clicked nearby.

"I'll catch you, beast!" the man grits his teeth, trying to intercept you.
