Seeing him trying hard not to laugh, Jinyue bit his neck again. But despite their playful bickering, she didn't really bite him hard, just left a row of round little teeth marks on his shoulder.
She clung to him, playfully biting his shoulder as they tumbled around in the forest depths.
After a while, Jinyue wiped her lips and looked up at the boy whose neck she was holding,
"Tell me, why aren't you afraid of me at all?"
She put away her playful demeanor and asked seriously. At the same time, she pressed the dagger against Yino's chin again to remind him that this weapon could take his life at any moment.
"If you really wanted to kill me out of anger, what good would fear do?" Yino replied nonchalantly.
Seeing cultivators searching nearby, Yino carried the foxgirl on his back and hid in the roadside bushes. As several torch-bearing cultivators passed by, Jinyue skillfully used an illusion to conceal their presence.
