Chapter 344: Chapter 344: 46 The Fox Clan Girl

Lin Jing pondered for a moment before responding:

“I agree.”

Hearing Lin Jing’s reply, Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers both shared a smile and nodded their heads.

But at that moment, an untimely voice rang out.

“No, I disagree.”

The three men, Lin Jing included, immediately turned their heads toward the direction of the voice.

The one who had spoken was none other than Yan Wanfei, wearing a troubled expression.

Yan Wanfei looked at Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers with a distressed face and said:

“Brother Ji, San He…”

“I thought of you as my best brothers, but this is really throwing me under the bus.”

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll be sold to Li Yan Island and lose my life?”

Upon hearing this, Holaw Three Rivers directly said:

“You don’t need to worry about that, when the time comes, I’ll make sure everything is prepared for you, so nothing goes wrong.”

“Don’t you trust me when I take action?”

After Holaw Three Rivers finished speaking, the troubled look on Yan Wanfei’s face lightened somewhat.

Still, he remained apprehensive and said:

“San He, of course I trust you, but it’s the ‘what ifs’ that I’m worried about.”

Then Holaw Three Rivers replied:

“Don’t you have faith in your innate abilities as a Green Illusion Demon Ox?”

“When it comes to disguises, your innate magic is top-notch. There’s no demon clan in the southern outer seas that can see through your disguise.”

“Unless you encounter a Divine Transformation Cultivator, no one would be able to penetrate your disguise.”

“Moreover…”

“Even before we took on this mission, I had collected quite a bit of intelligence. There’s absolutely, absolutely no one on Flame Island powerful enough to see through it.”

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have accepted this mission.”

After Holaw Three Rivers’s words, Yan Wanfei finally nodded in agreement.

“Alright…”

“San He, you better remember to arrange everything well. I don’t want to become a dead ox as soon as I set foot on the island.”

As he expressed this sentiment, Yan Wanfei still seemed downcast and unenthusiastic.

Seeing this, Lu Youjiu directly said to Yan Wanfei:

“Come on, Niu San…”

“After this task is over, I’ll be your sparring partner for ten sessions, the non-brutal kind.”

“I guarantee your physical strength will improve a notch.”

Hearing this, Yan Wanfei’s eyes suddenly shone bright as he looked at Lu Youjiu and asked:

“Really, Brother Ji?”

Lu Youjiu then affirmed:

“What I say, I mean.”

“Also, from now on, if you ask one more question, I’ll reduce a session.”

Hearing Lu Youjiu’s threat, Yan Wanfei stopped asking and hurriedly said to Lu Youjiu:

“Got it, Brother Ji…”

“I’ll take care of everything on the island.”

Seeing that Yan Wanfei had also agreed, Holaw Three Rivers raised his cup and said to everyone:

“Since we’ve all agreed, let’s toast in advance to the success of this endeavor.”

“Good…”

“Good…”

“San He, my life is in your hands, so be sure to make all the necessary arrangements.” Yan Wanfei hurriedly reminded him again.

“Relax!” replied Holaw Three Rivers.

Then, the individuals lifted their cups and drained them in one go.

……

After the drink, they continued conversing.

They had just sat down when Lu Youjiu looked at Yan Wanfei, stroking his chin thoughtfully and said:

“I’m wondering, what disguise should Niu San adopt?”

Lin Jing and Holaw Three Rivers also followed Lu Youjiu’s gaze, looking at Yan Wanfei.

Yan Wanfei had just picked up a piece of meat when he suddenly felt something amiss and swiftly took his eyes off the delicious food to look at the three men.

Feeling the stares from the three, Yan Wanfei shivered, sensing that something was very off with their gazes.

Consequently, he tightened his clothes and said:

“What are the three of you planning?”

Lin Jing then turned and suggested to Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers:

“How about letting Fellow Daoist Yan transform once to show us?”

“If he fails to transform properly and Dai Mao doesn’t like it, wouldn’t all our efforts have been in vain?”

Upon this, both nodded their heads.

Then Lu Youjiu spoke up, addressing Yan Wanfei:

“Niu San…”

“Go ahead and transform once to let us see.”

“Now? It’s a bit awkward…”

“How about I do it after we get back and show you then?”

Yan Wanfei suddenly became coy.

Obviously, he felt somewhat embarrassed about transforming into a young girl right in front of the men.

Seeing Yan Wanfei’s bashful demeanor, Lu Youjiu urged impatiently:

“Stop dragging your feet, otherwise forget about me being your sparring partner.”

“Brother Ji, no…”

“I’ll start transforming now.” Yan Wanfei quickly said.

Having spoken, Yan Wanfei immediately began to use his innate magic ability.

A misty green light radiated from Yan Wanfei’s body.

Just like before, it grew brighter and brighter.

Until at last, the green light dissipated, and a cute, tender-looking little girl appeared before the three men.

Seeing the young girl, Lin Jing and the others nodded continuously.

It has to be said, Yan Wanfei did understand…

The little girl created was round-cheeked and tenderly fair, and her innocent large eyes made it difficult to resist the urge to pick her up and cherish her dearly.

The three of them stared at Yan Wanfei, taking a careful look.

After evaluating, Lin Jing was the first to nod and said,

“I think she’s pretty good. What do you think?”

Having said that, Lin Jing turned his head to look at Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers.

Lu Youjiu also slightly nodded, saying,

“I also think it’s passable, but something seems a bit off.”

“Of course, it’s off…”

Holaw Three Rivers then took over the conversation from Youjiu at this point.

“This simply won’t do…”

I had specifically purchased some intelligence on Dai Mao at the Pact Hall.

Based on that intelligence, I got to know quite a bit about Dai Mao.

That includes his preferences.

Having said that, he turned to Yan Wanfei and asked,

“Niu San, did you ever see a Fox Clan girl while you were with the Demon Tribes?”

“I’ve seen a few. What about it?” Yan Wanfei looked at Holaw Three Rivers, puzzled.

Holaw Three Rivers nodded, then said,

“Now, transform into a Fox Clan girl.”

“A Fox Clan girl?”

“Oh, alright…”

Although Yan Wanfei didn’t understand, he trusted Holaw Three Rivers very much and started the transformation right away.

……

Before long, the misty green light dispersed, revealing an exceptionally cute Fox Clan girl in front of Lin Jing and the others.

The pointed, lively fox ears and the fluffy, soft fox tail, coupled with the young girl’s immature face.

Moreover, the Fox Clan girl that Yan Wanfei had transformed into bore the distinct charming allure of the Fox Clan.

This Fox Clan girl was even more vivacious and pretty than the girl he had turned into earlier.

Lu Youjiu looked at Holaw Three Rivers and couldn’t help but exclaim,

“San He, you truly deserve the credit.”

“If Dai Mao saw Niu San impersonating this Fox Clan girl, he probably wouldn’t be able to hold back.”

However.

San He looked at Yan Wanfei as if examining an art piece, stood up, and circled around him.

Yan Wanfei felt increasingly uneasy under Holaw Three Rivers’ gaze and couldn’t help but say,

“San He, you don’t have any thoughts about me, do you? If that’s the case, I’m out.”

Yet Holaw Three Rivers, as if he hadn’t heard, continued to scrutinize Yan Wanfei.

Only after a moment did Holaw Three Rivers raise his head and speak very seriously,

“Do you think I am as filthy-minded as you…”

“I’m putting myself in Dai Mao’s shoes to check your disguise skills to prevent your disguise from failing and causing trouble.”

“I…” Yan Wanfei was suddenly at a loss for words.

Then, Holaw Three Rivers pointed at Yan Wanfei’s flat chest and said,

“Make this a bit bigger.”

“Come on, San He, are you serious…”

Yan Wanfei was startled by Holaw Three Rivers’ words and immediately stepped back twice, putting some distance between them.

Holaw Three Rivers explained to Yan Wanfei,

“The intelligence I gathered mentioned more than once that Dai Mao prefers them a bit larger. For safety’s sake, we’ll have to trouble you a bit.”

“Jiu Ge, aren’t you going to say something about San He? This could ruin my lifelong reputation…” Yan Wanfei began to plea to Lu Youjiu.

However, now resembling a Fox Clan girl, his pleas seemed especially pitiful, tugging at the heartstrings of anyone who listened.

Of course.

That’s assuming you could ignore his loud and boisterous voice.

This time, Lu Youjiu was unusually polite to Yan Wanfei.

“Then what do you propose?” asked Lu Youjiu.

Yan Wanfei chuckled and said to Lu Youjiu,

“Hehe…”

“Jiu Ge, I want a Demon Tribe Body Refining Technique. You know what I mean.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Youjiu glanced at Yan Wanfei and pointed at Holaw Three Rivers with a raised hand.

Yan Wanfei turned to look at Holaw Three Rivers.

Holaw Three Rivers spoke unhurriedly,

“When we were discussing this matter earlier, I had already thought of your reward.”

After saying this, Holaw Three Rivers swiped his hand over the Space Ring and a white Jade Slip appeared in his hand.

However, before Lin Jing could take a good look, Holaw Three Rivers promptly returned the Jade Slip back to the Space Ring.

But Yan Wanfei, who was closer, suddenly widened his eyes and his breathing hastened at the sight of the Jade Slip.

“Body Refining Technique…”

“San He, let me have a look…”

At that moment, Yan Wanfei was overwhelmed with excitement and quickly went up to Holaw Three Rivers, pestering him.

However.

Holaw Three Rivers remained resolutely unyielding and shook his head.

“Considering your previous distrust of me and your attempt to use this mission to blackmail us…”

“I’ve decided that this technique will stay in my possession for now, and I’ll hand it over to you after the mission is completed.”

With a whimper in his voice, Yan Wanfei said to Holaw Three Rivers,

“Don’t be like that, San He…”

“I know I was wrong, just let me have a look.”

Still, Holaw Three Rivers firmly shook his head.

Yan Wanfei rushed to appeal to Lu Youjiu,

“Jiu Ge…”

“I know you have always been the kindest to me, help me persuade San He, please…”

Yan Wanfei, in the guise of a Fox Clan girl and pouting, was the epitome of beguiling charm.

However, his loud voice greatly spoiled the mood.

Lin Jing watched the scene before him, listened to the rough voice, and remembered what Yan Wanfei actually looked like, feeling a wave of goosebumps wash over him.
