80: Chapter 80: If you want to go to the Dragon Vein, promise me one thing.

"What is meant by unexpected efficacy?" Feng Yange held the beast body pill and fell into deep thought.

[Host, it can only be understood intuitively, not described in words.]

Feng Yange ignored the System. It was like saying nothing at all, but as long as it could be eaten, that was fine.

"If you want to eat it, I'll give you one to taste. I'll give you more when I have plenty later." Feng Yange gave Li Mingye one beast body pill and put the remaining two into a bottle. Taking advantage of the early hour, she continued her Alchemy; she needed more for backup.

Bai Jiuxiao woke up and saw that he was lying inside a tent with soft bedding. He looked around vigilantly. The wounds on his body had all been treated and bandaged. Although his body was severely injured and his leg bone was broken, he could feel that his injuries were much better than before he had passed out.

The blurry human female in his memories—was it she who saved him?

Bai Jiuxiao tried to get up, but the pain in his broken leg caused him to fall back into the bedding. The area of his broken leg had already been stained red. The pain caused him to make a sound. Li Mingye heard the noise and hurried over. Seeing that Bai Jiuxiao was awake, he rushed forward.

"Don't move around. Your leg bone is broken, and the wound is deep. You need to rest."

Bai Jiuxiao's fox eyes stared at Li Mingye. This man was also an expert at the mid-stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm.

"Thank you for saving me."

Bai Jiuxiao stared at the man in front of him, saying with a dejected expression, "The ones who exterminated my clan were humans, yet the one who saved me is also a human."

"In this world, regardless of the race, there are good and bad ones. There is no need to paint everyone with the same brush." Feng Yange held a piece of roasted meat in her hand. "Eat some roasted meat made by a human."

Bai Jiuxiao's fox eyes stared vigilantly at the human in front of him. He remembered her; before he lost consciousness, it was she who held him and even gave him a bath.

"Why did you save me?"

Bai Jiuxiao took the roasted meat and started eating. He had to recover and leave this dangerous place.

"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Feng Yange suddenly leaned in and asked. Bai Jiuxiao was stunned by her words, but then he saw her laugh. "I've never seen a Nine-Tailed Fox before. You look good, and I couldn't stand seeing that group of people bullying you, so I saved you while I was at it."

Bai Jiuxiao obviously didn't believe it. Feng Yange chuckled and added, "That was the lie."

"I came here searching for the Spiritual Vein, and I saw you being mobbed by people. I saved you because I wanted to see if you could take me into the Spiritual Vein." Feng Yange pressed closer to Bai Jiuxiao. "This is the truth. I know you came out of the Spiritual Vein."

The roasted meat in Bai Jiuxiao's hand dropped into the plate with a 'clatter'. Agitated, he coughed violently. He wanted to leave, but because of his struggle, the wound on his leg split open. He cried out in pain and struggled desperately. The anger in his eyes flared up, and thick killing intent surged. His sharp claws swiped towards Feng Yange's throat, but Feng Yange did not dodge; instead, she stared at him.

Bai Jiuxiao's claws stopped one inch from Feng Yange's neck, and the killing intent in his eyes gradually cooled.

"Why didn't you fight back?"

Feng Yange raised her hand; it was the wound he had scratched yesterday. He hadn't felt any malice from these two humans in front of him, which was also the reason he stopped. If they wanted to kill him, they wouldn't have saved him at all.

"I bet that you wouldn't kill me." Feng Yange sat down beside him. "In this world, the truth is always unpleasant to hear, but this is the fact. Although I am not a bad person, I am not a saint either; it is true that I had selfish motives when I saved you."

Feng Yange grabbed Bai Jiuxiao's leg, unwrapped the bandaged wound, and took out a bottle of spirit spring water to pour onto the wound. The healing effect of the spirit spring water was remarkable. Bai Jiuxiao could clearly feel that this human was genuinely using the spirit spring water to save him.

"A-Ye, help him bandage the wound. Give him this spirit spring water to drink. His leg bone is broken; spirit spring water alone cannot heal that." Feng Yange stood up. Outside, Xuan Li's voice could be heard. In an instant, she saw Xuan Li and Ling Feng walk in, both of them wearing expressions of joy.

"Mistress, the medicinal herbs you asked me to find have all been found. Take a look and see if it's enough?"

Xuan Li handed the medicinal herbs he had found to Feng Yange like he was presenting a treasure. The sixth one said Mistress was refining the beast body pill and needed high-Rank cores, so they went out to hunt for Advanced cores and picked quite a few red fruit.

"It's enough."

The beast body pill's effect was indeed good. She felt that her Physique had improved, but she always felt something was still missing. She would find someone to test it on later.

"Mistress, just as you said, Xiao Linger has arrived. Listening to their conversation, they are here for the Spiritual Vein." Mo Yuan glanced at the Nine-Tailed Fox in the tent staring at them. "She keeps muttering about looking for a fox."

"The little fox's leg bone is broken. We will stay here for a few days to recover. I need to refine some Medicinal Pill."

Feng Yange instructed them to watch over Bai Jiuxiao and then went off on her own to refine the Medicinal Pill. Bai Jiuxiao looked at the six handsome men surrounding him and only then realized that, besides the one human, that human actually had five beast husbands.

"You all actually married one human?"

"We are secretly happy to be able to marry the Mistress. What do you know? You don't understand anything. Being able to marry the Mistress is our good fortune." Xuan Li hurriedly expressed his feelings. Hearing the fox's words, he thought of the past; fortunately, he was clever, otherwise, how could he have such a good Mistress?

"Don't you know that handing your lives over to a human—if she wanted to kill you, it would be as simple as pinching an ant to death?"

Several of them rolled their eyes at Bai Jiuxiao simultaneously. "It's impossible to reason with a stupid fox like you."

"The Mistress had better not take him in."

Mo Yuan and Xuan Li spoke up. It was enough that they knew the Mistress's goodness.

Long Ze walked to in front of Bai Jiuxiao and squatted down. "Rest well and heal. If you need anything, just ask."

Feng Yange tried for a whole night and failed more than a dozen times, only succeeding when dawn broke. Looking at the Medicinal Pill in her hand, Feng Yange stood up happily. Long Ze stepped forward to support her arm. "Mistress, you've worked hard."

"A-Ze, I succeeded. This is the Bone-Knitting Pill, specifically for treating broken bones and torn tendons. Help me give it to the fox to try." Feng Yange handed the Medicinal Pill to Long Ze. "I'm going to take a nap; I'm sleepy."

Long Ze acknowledged and took the Medicinal Pill to hand to Bai Jiuxiao. "This is the Bone-Knitting Pill that the Mistress stayed up all night to refine for you. Eat it quickly."

Bai Jiuxiao looked at the Medicinal Pill Long Ze handed over, his expression complex. That human was blowing up her cauldron all night just to refine the Bone-Knitting Pill for him?

"Is your Mistress an Alchemist?"

Long Ze turned to look at him, his tone cold. "The Mistress only started to Cultivate half a year ago. Alchemy is self-taught."

Bai Jiuxiao watched Long Ze's departing back, his gaze falling on the Bone-Knitting Pill in his palm. A self-taught Alchemist, failing all night to refine the Bone-Knitting Pill for him—this human did not seem to be a bad person.

Bai Jiuxiao swallowed the Bone-Knitting Pill. He could clearly feel the area of his broken bones and torn tendons repairing rapidly, and the broken bones connected. His leg bone had actually truly reconnected.

Feng Yange woke up from her sleep. As soon as she opened her eyes, she was met with a pair of beautiful fox eyes. Bai Jiuxiao excitedly transformed into his human form and grabbed Feng Yange's arms. "Human, don't you want to go to the Spiritual Vein? As long as you agree to one condition of mine, I will take you in."
