Supreme Vision Master Chapter 1287: White-Eyed Wolf (1)

"..."

Observing the small fox form he now inhabited, Ye Qianming found it difficult to bear the sight. He felt utterly incapable of controlling the physical instincts inherent to this young fox body. He resigned himself to the situation, thinking that any cuteness displayed was solely directed at this particular woman.

Ye Qianming concluded this with a touch of self-deprecating humor. He decided to cease his efforts to suppress the natural inclinations of his current, youthful fox form.

Luo Qingtong found herself thoroughly amused by the series of affectionate and fawning gestures emanating from the little Silver Fox.

Her amusement intensified as she noticed the fox's outward display of clear disdain and annoyance, despite its body betraying its genuine joy in her presence. She found its behavior to be charmingly tsundere.

This sort of attitude perfectly mirrored Ye Qianming's own personality. She wondered if he had genuinely trained the fox to act this way.

Luo Qingtong's thoughts led her to laugh even more heartily.

While the young woman and the fox were engrossed in their interaction, Lady Yan had already been reunited with Hu Zhongtian, and the two were overcome with emotion, weeping uncontrollably.

After managing to regain a measure of composure, Lady Yan approached Luo Qingtong. She offered a respectful salute and, with tear-reddened eyes, expressed her gratitude, stating, "Thank you, Ninth Young Master, for aiding our Hu Family."

Aware that Luo Qingtong's true identity was not to be revealed, Lady Yan chose to use the title Chu Lingfeng had used for her.

Although Chu Lingfeng could address Luo Qingtong as Ninth Brother, Lady Yan felt it was proper to use the respectful title "Ninth Young Master" when addressing Luo Qingtong's alias, rather than a casual one.

Witnessing her deferential demeanor, the members of the Hu Family showed no particular reaction. However, those who had accompanied Lady Yan from the Heiyu Mansion regarded her with astonishment.

This surprise stemmed from Lady Yan's considerable standing within the Daqin Black Domain Main City; even the City Lord himself would extend courtesies to her. Figures from the Holy Dynasty forces were, of course, even less likely to be on equal footing.

The fact that she was exhibiting such deep respect and caution toward this young man piqued their curiosity about his actual identity.

They began to speculate if he might be someone of importance from the Black Domain Main City.

With this thought, their gazes shifted towards Luo Qingtong, becoming more circumspect.

"Hmm," Luo Qingtong responded briefly, unconcerned by their scrutiny. She then proceeded to carry the little Silver Fox toward the main courtyard belonging to Hu Zhongtian.

She felt that the current crowded environment, filled with numerous individuals and potential gossip, was not conducive to discussing certain matters.

Arriving at the central hall of the courtyard with the little Silver Fox cradled in her arms, Luo Qingtong found that Hu Zhongtian and Lady Yan had already ensured their privacy by dismissing bystanders. They were now seated opposite Luo Qingtong, with Chu Lingfeng also present.

"Master..." Lady Yan began, addressing Luo Qingtong with a hesitant expression.

A multitude of questions welled up within her, yet she found herself at a loss for where to commence.

She had only just learned from Hu Zhongtian the full extent of the events that had transpired over the intervening years. The realization that the Hu Family had endured so much in her absence left Lady Yan filled with profound regret.

Throughout that period, burdened by guilt and pursued by danger, Lady Yan had deliberately refrained from inquiring about the Hu Family's affairs.

She had feared that her resolve would falter, prompting her return and inadvertently bringing further trouble to the Hu Family and her father.

Little did she imagine that the Hu Family would undergo such drastic transformations!

Had Luo Qingtong not journeyed to the Extreme West Wilderness, becoming involved in matters concerning the Holy King Tomb, Lady Yan would likely never have entrusted Luo Qingtong with overseeing the Hu Family's welfare. Consequently, she might have remained oblivious to the crises her family had faced!

She considered the possibility that she might not have known of her father and brother's fates until their dying moments.

This line of thought brought a wave of sorrow over Lady Yan.

Noticing her reddened eyes, Luo Qingtong reached into her belongings and retrieved an item she had acquired from the Witchcraft Sect.
