Chapter 1242: Luo Li and the Little Fox IV
Its breathing became faint as if it would disappear at any moment.
Luo Li held the fox in her arms tightly, covering it with her small head.
She was not crying.
But the wind around her sounded like a low sob.
“Little Fox, I’m sorry…”
She knew that her little fox was already weak from the beginning. There was nothing much it could do.
However…
The little fox had promised her that if it could transform into a human, it would come back and marry her.
She had trusted it…
Even if it took a hundred years or thousand years for a fox to change into human form, she would wait.
If it did not happen in this life, she would wait again in the next life.
If they could not make it in the next life, she still had the next and the next.
“Manor Master…”
Everyone turned to Luo Xiang, not knowing if they should continue beating her or not.
Ever since Luo Fei was caught, Luo Xiang had become the head of the Luo family, replacing Luo Fei.
Perhaps Luo Xiang still had a last shred of conscience… After seeing Luo Li, who had her head buried in the little fox’s fur, he did not give any order to his men. He snorted as he waved his sleeves. “Even if I don’t kill this fox, it won’t live much longer. As for Luo Li, I’ll let her go if she promises to behave and never return to the Luo family again.”
He looked at Luo Li one last time before he turned around and calmly walked into Luo Manor.
“Li’er…”
Old Lady Luo finally crawled up next to Luo Li. She pulled the young girl into her arms and cried loudly.
“What has our Luo family done? First came Qin Xiaoyue, and now there are so many ungrateful men making my Li’er suffer so much. My old man, do you see this? This is the clan that you’ve helped back then. You’ve endangered yourself, stealing the secret treasure to help Luo Xiang breakthrough to this strength.
“But… He’s treating your granddaughter like this, and he wants to drive me out of the Luo family! My old man, come back and take a look, and then take this crowd away. All of them!
“Oh my Li…”
Old Lady Luo cried hard as she saw the wounds on Luo Li’s body.
She never thought that she would have to suffer like this again in her old age.
“Grandmother, will the little fox die?” Luo Li raised her eyes and asked.
Old Lady Luo wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. If it was not for the fox just now, maybe… Luo Li’s injuries would have been worse.
“Let’s go to Gu Manor. Master Gu is kind and won’t ignore us. He might have a way to save the fox.”
“Alright.”
Luo Li was not crying anymore. She stood up and smiled sweetly as she stared at the little fox in her arms.
“I’ll save you, Little Fox. I’ll save you.”
She gently caressed the little fox and slowly raised her head…
Suddenly, she was stunned.
She saw a young girl who was approaching her not far away.
The long sword in the young girl’s hand was stained with blood. Her face was cold and solemn, and there was a pot above her head that was constantly spinning, making an uncomfortable buzzing sound.
***
Along the way, Feng Ruqing had noticed a few Holy Warriors. They were clearly from the same group of people who were in Gu Manor just now.
She also did not hesitate to slay them, leaving corpses everywhere.
Suddenly, she stopped and looked blankly at Luo Li who was holding a fox in front of her.
