145 - Stealing the Yuri Protagonist Harem

Author: LiangLiangMeowMeowKnight Ah, the poor heavenly tribulation yet again turned out to be nothing more than a snack for the Little Fox. No sooner did this thought arise than Luo Wusheng felt a slight weight on his shoulder. At some unknown time, the small light-red fox had leapt onto his shoulder, adeptly gripping onto it with tiny paws, maintaining balance with ease. Incidentally, it had landed precisely on a spot where it had previously bitten him. Whether it did so deliberately was anyone’s guess. Behind it, two solid and one phantom tails swayed gently, releasing an intoxicating fragrance. “It’s here.” The little fox's enchanting eyes gazed toward the edge of the sky. For some reason, Luo Wusheng felt that there was something different about this little fox’s state compared to before... Before he could ponder further, a deafening crash resounded from above. Boom! A pillar of lightning descended from the clouds. Then, Luo Wusheng felt the small fox on his shoulder leap up lightly. Typically, only an artifact and its creator could face a tribulation, lest unforeseen changes occur... However, due to the evolution process being almost entirely handled by the Fox Concubine, this little creature was considered one of the creators at this moment. In the next instant, Luo Wusheng felt as if time had frozen. The boundaries between space and time blurred at that moment. The colossal descending lightning pillar halted mid-air. Then, as if twisted from three-dimensional into two-dimensional form, the pillar seemed inexplicably flat. And there, beside this flattened lightning, appeared the small light-red fox. It turned its head and bit down. Crunch. Luo Wusheng could hardly believe his eyes. Right before him unfolded a visually stunning scene, as the gigantic pillar of lightning, flattened into a plane, produced a crisp sound upon the dainty fox’s bite, then began to crack extensively. Crunchy! Luo Wusheng found himself at a loss for words to describe what he was witnessing. If he had to articulate it, there was only one word that came to mind. Whoa! Amidst Luo Wusheng’s overwhelming shock, the adorable little fox swaggered with its three tails, lightly stepping through the air, as the colossal tribulation dissipated inch by inch at its touch. The little fox raised its head slightly, opening its mouth to inhale. The shattered tribulation transformed into stream-like energy flowing into the fox's mouth. From Luo Wusheng’s perspective, within the span of a single breath, the first lightning strike had been entirely consumed by the little fox. It even smacked its lips, seemingly unsatisfied. Behind it, the third tail solidified a bit more. Luo Wusheng swallowed hard. His gaze instinctively shifted to his shoulder. The bite from the Fox Concubine earlier still tinged with pain, but after witnessing the lightning tribulation crumble under the little fox's bite... (That bite sure isn’t kidding around...) He muttered inwardly, sending a cool breath into his mouth. The Fox Concubine was indeed terrifying! This is beyond just an early Nascent Soul level power; with this method of crushing a heavenly tribulation, even using half its strength would be more than enough to eliminate someone at the early Nascent Soul stage. Thankfully, he and the little fox had a close friendship, and he presumably hadn't provoked the little fox to the point of losing its senses; otherwise, he might have lost a hand that now felt faintly warm. “But seeing how things are going, it appears that the little fox could effortlessly handle this wave of tribulations alone?” The skies once again resounded with the rumble of tribulations, but all ultimately became nourishment for the condensation of its third tail under the fox's jaws. With the big player leading the charge, there really wasn’t a necessity for Luo Wusheng to join in the fray; after all, the Little Fox needed to devour the tribulation to recover, and his meddling might just cause unwanted complications. With this thought, he turned his attention to the slowly floating amorphous artifact in his hand. Hmm, the enhancement succeeded. Now all that remained was to survive this endured tribulation. The basic power had increased significantly... and it still retained its previous two traits. No, these two traits seemed to have evolved now. Firstly, illustrating power remains as before, where the wider the audience, the more awe it garners, the more formidable its power becomes. But now, there were subtle changes. Post-upgrade, it branched out one additional function. An energy collection storage for awe... The vast amounts of awe earned over time can now be stored in the amorphous block, albeit with some loss and less efficiency compared to generating awe in real time, but at least this artifact no longer needs a specific occasion to be utilized. Moreover, the awe collected doesn’t necessarily require the amorphous block to be at the forefront; it could be collected through him when he stood in the limelight. Luo Wusheng pondered for a moment, then shifted his focus to the other trait's evolution. The conditions for charging had improved somewhat. The concept of gifts was no longer limited to tangible items... Swindling them into specific meanings seemed slightly tricky, which Luo Wusheng hadn’t figured out yet and felt it needed experimentation. However, just as he was absorbed in his thoughts, he paused. In his spiritual perception, he noticed a considerable number of formidable presences radiating tremendous momentum approaching his direction. And within them, he recognized familiar auras. (Is it the Little Fox's entourage?) Confirming the presence of Little Guai and the Elder Ape, Luo Wusheng guessed, but just at that moment, the Little Fox’s urgent voice echoed in his mind. “Beware from behind!” Luo Wusheng was instantly alerted, but it was too late. He saw a tiny purple lightning flash inexplicably within the void behind him. Though the lightning was tiny, it carried the undeniable might of a Nascent Soul. Moreover, its speed was exceedingly fast, offering no time for reaction. Just as Luo Wusheng began to react, he felt a searing heat on his back, reflexively raising an impossible-to-withstand spiritual force and extending his right hand to shield himself. The violet electric light climbed up his arm. ………… A short distance from the tribulation clouds. Just as Luo Wusheng anticipated, Tree Sprite Little Guai and Elder Ape were leading a group of varied monstrous races approaching the site of the tribulation. "The tribulation cloud is visible now! And the Fox Concubine devouring the tribulation… it seems the third tail is nearly fully condensed! Ah, today marks the day her majesty reconstitutes her demon body, swallows the Demon Emperor Pill, and returns to peak power!" The winged Sparrow Demon Aqiao fluttered his wings, his tiny eyes glowing with excitement. His innate ability allowed him to see distant objects more clearly, serving as a scout. Though Elder Ape could also achieve this, even directly transporting the group near the tribulation site… none of the nearby demon races wished for that. They feared Elder Ape’s old condition might resurface, misjudging the distance between two teleportations to the tribulation site. If directly moved beneath the tribulation cloud, causing alterations, they could never absolve the responsibility for delaying the Fox Concubine’s restoration. Thus, it was healthier to take things slow, a safer approach beneficial for health. “Do you see the Holy Son of the Demon Sect? Is he by her majesty’s side?” inquired the Deer Demon within the ranks of monsters. Before the Sparrow Demon could respond, laughter erupted from among the monsters. “Ah, Deer, did you really believe Little Guai’s words that her majesty might fancy that human boy? Impossible~ Not to mention the disparities between demon and human, her majesty, the honorable Deity Stage being, how could she have such feelings for someone below the Nascent Soul stage?” “Indeed, even if he’s a Holy Son of the Demon Sect, he’s just a young successor at best, a future master of the Demon Sect, nowhere near the status of our demon masters!” “I too feel so, and the tribulation’s might should be mid to late Nascent Soul level, even I have to back off beneath such tribulation. How could he withstand the tribulation by her side? Likely he’s waiting farther off for her majesty to consume the entire tribulation…” Such words among the monsters gained frequent nods of agreement, while Little Guai at the front slightly pouted her cheeks. She had been labeled a fearmonger. Suddenly, as a scout, the Sparrow Demon Aqiao stopped abruptly. His tiny eyes widened, displaying disbelief. “N-No way, he hasn’t reached the Nascent Soul realm, how could he… no, even I…” The monsters, puzzled by his inexplicable words, exchanged confused glances. “Hey, Aqiao! What happened?” Curious, the Tree Sprite asked. But the Sparrow Demon remained immersed in his shock. The pack of great demons exchanged looks, accelerating their movement toward the tribulation clouds. The scene beneath the tribulation cloud unfolded before their eyes. But simultaneously, they were struck with horror. Amid the boundless tribulation clouds. The youthful face with striking features had his right arm enveloped in terrifying violet lightning, extending from arm to shoulder, illuminating half his face. His disheveled black hair intertwined with the electric arcs. Yet, those eyes remained utterly calm. Within his pupils, there seemed to flicker arcs and sparks, staring quietly at the direction of the demon crowd, instilling a sense of unease in each Nascent Soul demon present. It was as if they were facing the descent of a demon god. Chapter 216: Is This the Legendary Holy Son of the Demon Sect? Luo Wusheng was utterly stupefied. In every sense of the word. Moments ago, he was caught off guard by an ambush from the heavenly tribulation. For the life of him, he didn’t expect that. By all accounts, wasn't the wrath of the heavens supposed to be straightforward and honorable? How did it resort to sneak attacks now? This is outrageous! Could it be that his frequent encounters with tribulations over the past month got him blacklisted? Moreover, this bizarre tribulation made its appearance precisely when the Little Fox was in that brief moment of stillness while absorbing the lightning, leaving it no time to come to his aid. When he stretched out his right arm in an attempt to shield himself, Luo Wusheng had already braced himself mentally for severe injuries. After all, he had indeed let his guard down. His spiritual energy circulation was not timely enough to form an adequate defense, and the sudden appearance of the violet lightning, being exceedingly swift, possessed power formidable enough to challenge typical Nascent Soul cultivators. Taking such a hit, even he would have to rely on a few prized healing jade stones to recover rapidly. As the lightning made contact, Luo Wusheng had already considered which jade stones he would use for healing shortly. However, what happened next was beyond his expectations. The violet lightning clung to his right arm like an unshakable curse.
