I lay sprawled on the bed, staring at the ceiling.
'Finally back. That was… fun. But exhausting. Maybe I should've left a few alive—nah, that'd be messy.'
A sharp voice rang in my head, cutting into my thoughts.
"Long Tian! What were you thinking?! Running off and killing an entire pavilion! Do you ever stop and think?"
I sighed. Xue Fei, my white fox pet, wasn't pleased. She rarely was when it came to my little "adventures."
"Calm down, Fei. It was just a minor clean-up. They asked for it," I said, my voice laced with mock innocence.
"Minor?! Do you know how much trouble this could cause? You're reckless, arrogant, and—"
I sat up, rubbing my temples. Her scolding was endless.
'She's cute when she's angry, though,' I thought, chuckling to myself.
Reaching out, I gently stroked her soft, pristine fur. Her small, fluffy body trembled, but she didn't move away.
