"Xian Nu Lu would it be all that bad if it were my true form?"
"No mother" Xian Nu Lu felt a little embarrassed
"I,m a primordial beast, in other words a Goddess, I can manipulate my form as I wish, my true form ... would be to eye catching in a very variety of ways that why I will be a Fox" Guan Shi Yin looked at the sky in her eyes lingered deep sadness... She then looked at her cubs and said " lets go, it will be a small journey but let's enjoy it a little"
"Yes Mother" they followed her from the side making sure she wouldn't get hurt even though Xian Nu Lu could not detect it Guan Jing saw his mother stomach a little bigger and couldn't help but feel extremely happy.
They walked half a day once they reached the outer section of the Mist forest, they rested and drank a little spirit water to relieve their thirst. Soon they continued walking and just as they thought everything was going smoothly Guan Jing leaped in front of his mother growling, Xian Nu Lu transformed into her human form and just as they were all on edge they saw a couple of humans carrying corpses of two or three spirit beasts. Guan Shi Yin was petrified and angered at what her eyes saw, suddenly the humans saw the trio and started walking towards them
"Little girl don't you know how dangerous it is around these woods?" One of the group spoke
"That has nothing to do with you, leave at once" Xian Nu Lu could sense her mothers anger increasing by the minute as she saw those pups hanging from a horse...
"Little girl you should be more respectful, or you can not blame me for enforcing discipline on you" The man smirked and had a lustful look on his face he got off his mount and was about to touch her when a powerful pressure could be felt, all of them including Xian Nu Lu and Guan Jing fell to the ground motionless.
The Goddess stood up and walked toward the human group, just as she was passing she liked her 'cubs' to relieve them of her pressure although they were not affected anymore they could still feel the pain of the pressure inflicted. A dark red fire enveloped the Goddess as she looked at the humans with disgust.
"Please spare us"
"Please don't harm us" The humans did not know what the fox was but they knew it had immense power. They had started to cough up blood unable to withstand her pressure
"Jing'Er, Xian Nu Lu please cover your ears and close your eyes" she looked at them with a dominating stare they both obayed not daring to do otherwise...
Soon after she came close to them and liked their foreheads and said "Let's go there is nothing else to do here" at this moment Guan Jing peeked back and saw the grotesque scenery. The bodies of the human group had been torn apart and burned...
"Jing'Er come this is not for you to witness" she grabbed him as though he where a pup by the neck and placed him on her back " I know it may seem ruthless, but sometimes there are being that don't deserve mercy"
Her 'cubs' thought long and hard and decided that what their mother said was right, she had saved many from the verge of disappearing and was understandable that she did not wish for her beloved beasts to be hunted down in such a manner.
Soon after they arrived in the outer part of a village they hid behind a tree while one by one they transformed into their human form making sure no one spotted them... Soon after they walked toward the village... at the entrance their was a sigh with the name of the town both Guan Jing and Xian Nu Lu Grabbed the corner of their mothers robe and asked "Mother what does it say"
" Cloud City" She smiled and thought " once we get back home I will teach you how to read and write properly, I completely forgot about this matter"
They looked at each other with a wide smile " If you want something, come and tell me first do not grabbed it deliberately" Both of them nowded.
They walked down the street and several curious gazes fell on them, Shi Yin did not sense malice so she did not bother about it, her two cubs tasted all kinds of foods they could get their hands on.
The three entered several shops and bought several things... Until they entered an Armament Master's shop...
Armament Masters could create weapons with great power and beauty, as well as jewelry with special capabilities. They looked around until a pair of invisible Fox ears twitched
"Jing'Er do you like it?" She indicated the salesman to show her the jade pendant, a beautiful snow blue Jade, she looked at it and smiled " Salesman can you add a few details to it ?"
"Yes, We can what do you wish to add to it?, this Jade pendant is a third Tier armament and has enough storage as to put a small manor in it"
Shi Yin looked at it and drew a pattern on a sheet of paper and a couple of character "This is what I wish for"
She then walked over to her Dove " Xian Nu Lu did you find something you like?
