In the living room, the television finally made a beep.
As soon as the screen was turned on, it seemed as if nothing had changed; the Nine-Tailed Fox was still sitting there.
However, Watanabe Hitoshi, the elderly guardian of the artifacts, and several Flourishing Sakura Monks were already red-eyed from watching.
As soon as Ren Suo zoomed in, he could see the bloodshot veins in their eyes.
By this time, the Nine-Tailed Fox had absorbed all the spiritual energy from the artifacts, but she appeared to have been simply sitting amidst them for five hours.
She smoothed the fur of the Little Blue Cat, and upon its meow, the Nine-Tailed Fox spoke, "It's enough. Little Blue has gained sufficient spirituality."
It was evident that the old man and the Flourishing Sakura Monks sighed in relief—watching the same scene motionlessly for five hours was not something anyone could endure easily.
