"Master Lu, don't be like that, people might start gossiping if they see."
"Laugh it off, do you think your master is afraid of that? Do you even know where this is? Whoever dares to gossip, I'll kill them!"
With a rustling sound, a baby white fox carrying an apple in its mouth strolled by, stopped, and swayed its small head with the shaking of the grass.
Curiosity made the baby fox poke its head into the bushes.
What it saw was, the second troublemaker of the Hidden Thousand Mountains, the second young master of the Qingqiu Palace, brandishing a long sword in front of a beautiful woman, intending to do harm under the broad daylight.
The baby fox whimpered twice, tucked its tail and ran wildly. It left behind the apple it had dropped by accident.
It hadn't run far when an apple flew out of the bushes in an arc and hit the little fox squarely on the head.
After a few cries, the little fox picked up the apple and ran.
"Doesn't seem very smart."
"Indeed not too bright."
