Was there anything else to eat?

Zhi Yao heard this and her bright eyes sparkled. Although she had just eaten, she was... craving and being full were two completely different things.

"Where is it? What tasty treats are you hiding?"

After saying this, Zhi Yao looked down at Pei Chiyao beneath her.

He was only wearing an open white shirt, exposing his muscular chest and abs, looking extremely tantalizing.

Zhi Yao glanced down and became slightly dazed.

Heavens! Wasn't Pei Chiyao a little too sexy?!

Seeing the young lady's spellbound expression, Pei Chiyao felt delighted. He reached up and lifted Zhi Yao, "If you want to know, don't you think you should give me a little reward?"

Zhi Yao pondered for a while, unable to figure out where he had hidden it. Could it be... hidden in his scales?

The young lady thought more and more that it was possible, and immediately believed it. "What reward do you want?"

"What do you think?" The man raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of deep meaning.

...

About an hour later.

The room finally settled down.

Zhi Yao had fallen into a deep sleep.

Her face was flushed red like never before.

She was so exhausted that she didn't even have the energy to glare at Pei Chiyao, and was directly cradled in his embrace as she slept.

Beneath Pei Chiyao's palm was Zhi Yao's smooth, tender skin. He gently stroked her back, as if grooming a little fox's fur. Once he confirmed that Zhi Yao was soundly asleep and wouldn't wake up again, Pei Chiyao finally stood up and walked into the bathroom.

He took a shower, his damp hair hanging over his forehead, his eyes filled with languid satisfaction.

It was time to talk to Zhi Yao's Mother about the seal. Perhaps only her Mother would know how to remove it.

Only by removing the seal could Zhi Yao truly belong to him. The current situation... was far from enough.

Zhi Yao's Mother's room was on the third floor. As Pei Chiyao was about to go upstairs, a figure suddenly darted out, directly blocking his path.

Ling San looked at Pei Chiyao with a gloomy expression, obstructing his way.

"Stay your step."

Seeing Ling San suddenly appear in front of him, Pei Chiyao raised his eyebrows, "Is there a problem?"

He had only met Ling Si of the Ling family before; the others rarely showed themselves in public, and this second young master of the Ling family in particular kept to himself.

Ling San's usually indifferent and aloof eyes were now filled with the ferocity and sinister look of a wolf as he gazed at Pei Chiyao.

He examined Pei Chiyao from head to toe, sensing an extraordinarily strange aura surrounding him.

It was an ancient and mysterious aura, accompanied by immense power that shook his heart.

"Sir Pei, if I'm not mistaken, you're going to ask Mother about Zhi Yao's seal, right?" He looked at the man in front of him with great caution.

He felt that this man was too dangerous.

He wasn't suitable to be with Zhi Yao. Zhi Yao was too naive, and this man... might be hiding many things.

Hearing this, Pei Chiyao was not surprised at all. This Ling San didn't seem simple, so it was not strange that he knew about the seal on Zhi Yao.

"If you want to know, I'll tell you, but... you have to exchange it for a secret of your own. What do you think?"

Pei Chiyao pondered for a moment. "What do you want to know?"

...

When Pei Chiyao returned to the room, Zhi Yao was still asleep.

It was clear that he had really exhausted the young lady this time.

Pei Chiyao's expression darkened. If what Ling San had just said was true... then Zhi Yao...

His gaze grew deep and distant. It turned out that the seal was not placed by Zhi Yao's Mother, nor was it something Zhi Yao was born with.

One day, Zhi Yao suddenly disappeared and when she returned, she was found lying on the ground in front of a Fox den by her Mother.

When she was found, the little one was just lying there as if asleep, with a jade pendant hanging from her neck like a protective charm.

But what shocked Zhi Yi the most was... Zhi Yao had acquired a seal on her body.

No one knew who had done it...

When Zhi Yao woke up, she was also completely clueless about it.

At that time, Zhi Yi had tried to remove this seal from Zhi Yao, but the seal was too complex and ancient. She didn't dare to alert the Tribe Chief, because... back then she was still hiding Zhi Yao's true identity as part of the Wolf Tribe. If this incident revealed that Zhi Yao carried wolf blood, not only would she die, but Zhi Yao would also be killed!

This was Zhi Yi's greatest fear all along.

But as time passed, Zhi Yi found that the seal seemed to have no effect on Zhi Yao, merely existing there. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the N0vᴇlFirᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

And ever since she was born from her Mother's womb, Zhi Yao had been sickly and weak, her cultivation speed extremely slow. Other Foxes could freely transform into human form, yet Zhi Yao couldn't even speak.

However, after obtaining that jade pendant, the young lady's cultivation speed became faster compared to before, though still not as fast as her peers.

Over time, Zhi Yi stopped researching that seal and instead placed another seal on Zhi Yao to better protect her.

It wasn't until Pei Chiyao's appearance, triggering her seal and that seal, that Zhi Yi finally understood what that seal was for...

But no matter what, she couldn't figure out why that person would place such an ancient seal on a mere Fox? After all, back then Zhi Yao was truly just an ordinary, unremarkable Fox, her spiritual intelligence yet to awaken.

Pei Chiyao silently contemplated everything he had heard from Ling San. So that seal could not be removed.

Because... no one knew who had placed it.

He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the vexation in his heart. No matter where the person who had placed such an ancient seal on Zhi Yao was, he would find them!

After thinking through all this, Pei Chiyao finally came back to his senses and looked at the young lady sleeping on the bed.

The marks on her body were quite unsightly.

He had used a bit too much force earlier. Zhi Yao was so delicate, and now Pei Chiyao felt somewhat regretful.

He lifted the thin blanket covering Zhi Yao's body and gazed intently at every inch of her skin. Fortunately, there were only some bruises.

And...

He extended his fingers, carefully examining that area, only relieved when he confirmed it was just reddened.

Although he still couldn't completely devour Zhi Yao, but... as long as he could be with the young lady, he felt very satisfied.

The man leaned down and gently kissed Zhi Yao's forehead, embracing her slender waist before falling into a deep sleep as well.

Good night, his young lady.
