Chapter 34: Teacher, you lied to me, growing up is no fun at all!

Just now.

Deep in the dense forest behind the mountain

Nine-tailed creature lay sprawled on the massive mountainside, its nine scarlet tails sweeping about, snapping the branches of the surrounding trees.

With its head bowed, it stared at the trembling oxen in front of it, preparing to feast and enjoy the "food" it had stolen.

However, at that very moment!

"Nine-tailed fox! You dare eat it! My grandfather has hired a master to subdue you!"

A childish yet stubborn rebuke suddenly came from not far away on the mountain.

And there it was—the same child from before.

The small body stared intently at the enormous fox demon before it, its legs trembling slightly, yet it did not flinch in the slightest.

Kurama glanced at the still-wet-skinned human child, his nine tails flicking disdainfully.

"You human brat, stop making your Ninth Brother laugh!"

"You? Don't even mention hiring some expert. Even if you call all those brats from the Ninja Clan over, they'd be nothing more than a bite to me."

Nine-Tailed Fox licked its fangs and spoke nonchalantly.

"Unless you can invite the Sage of Six Paths himself, but that's just wishful thinking. Why would he care about such a small matter?"

Don't even mention you, I haven't seen him in years...

Having said that, the Nine-Tailed Fox ignored the child, lowered its head, and opened its huge mouth to bite the fattest yellow ox.

"Oh? Kurama, is that right?"

A calm yet imposing voice appeared, instantly stopping the wind in the entire mountain forest.

"ah?!"

Nine Lama's movements suddenly froze, his mouth half-open, standing there dumbfounded.

Nine-Tailed Fox slowly raised its head in disbelief, its scarlet beast eyes fixed on the direction from which the sound came, its pupils shrinking to pinpoints, and its face showing an expression of utter disbelief.

Look behind the child!

A familiar figure slowly stepped out!

He still wore a black and red robe, still stood tall and elegant, and was always accompanied by the Six Paths Sword.

"Holy crap! They actually brought Master over!?"

Nine Lama's mind went blank for a moment.

Who is this kid?

They actually managed to summon the Sage of Six Paths!?

You should have used these connections earlier!

The next second, the massive body of the Nine-Tailed Fox collapsed to its knees with a thud!

Its nine tails were obediently tucked behind it, and its head was buried tightly between its paws. There was no trace of its previous arrogance and domineering nature. It looked just like a little fox that had been caught doing something wrong.

"Master...Master...I...I...I..."

Nine-Tailed Fox stammered as it spoke.

He crossed his arms over his chest ten thousand times, his gaze calmly fixed on it.

"Didn't I tell you back then that you were not allowed to do evil in the human world, and not to harm the livelihoods of mortals? How come, after only a hundred years, you've already ignored my words?"

Wanci spoke in a calm tone.

Nine Lama was on the verge of tears, wishing he could disappear into the ground.

To be honest, this is the first time in all its life that it has ever stolen livestock.

Previously, it had been chased and besieged by humans, who had tried various methods to tame it. It had obeyed its master's orders without fighting back, only fleeing, harboring a deep resentment. That's why it decided to steal a few cows to take revenge on mortals...

Who would have thought that doing just this one bad thing would get him caught red-handed by his teacher, whom he hadn't seen in a century!

"Teacher, please let me explain!"

"This is truly the first time I've ever done something like this. For the past hundred years, I've stayed put and never caused any trouble. Who knew that I'd only just had this thought once, and you'd catch me in the act..."

Nine Lama said, on the verge of tears.

"Oh?"

Wanci raised an eyebrow slightly, and with a gentle sweep of his immortal power, he sensed that there was not much blood on the Nine-Tailed Fox. Clearly, it was telling the truth and had not actually committed any evil deeds.

"That's enough."

"Quickly return these cattle to these commoners. They rely on these livestock to plow the fields and make a living. If you take them away, their livelihood will be cut off."

Wan waved his hand and pointed to the oxen beside him.

"Yes, teacher!"

Nine Lamas immediately agreed, and with his enormous paws he carefully reached out and gently pushed several oxen in front of the child, his movements so gentle that he was afraid of damaging them.

Then it glared at the child fiercely and muttered in a low voice, "Kid, you're ruthless. You actually managed to get my teacher to come... But I have to thank you, I haven't seen my teacher in ages."

Wanci turned to look at the child who was still standing there in a daze, and said gently, "Take the cow back to the village. I will handle things here. This fox demon will not bother your village again."

The child then came to his senses and quickly led the ox away.

He knelt down on the ground with a "thud"!

He respectfully kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Sage of Six Paths! You are merciful!"

"Um."

Wanci nodded slightly, watching the child lead the ox and skip away into the forest before turning his gaze to the Nine-Tailed Fox, who was still kneeling on the ground.

Nine Lamas immediately came over.

Its massive head gently rubbed against Wanci's clothes, like a wronged child, eagerly recounting its experiences over the years.

"Teacher, I was really doing well in the place you arranged for me back then."

But then human nations appeared there, and those people discovered me. They wanted to capture me, tame me, and use my strength to fight!

I listened to you and didn't want to hurt them, so I could only run away. But no matter where I ran, the mortals screamed in terror when they saw me and chased after me with weapons. I was so angry that I thought of stealing a few cows to vent my anger..."

The nine-tailed fox grew more and more aggrieved as it spoke, its nine tails drooping listlessly: "Teacher! You lied to me! You said I could see the outside world when I grew up, but it's not nice at all. Humans are afraid of me and want to take advantage of me. It's not fun at all!"

"Teacher! Growing up isn't fun at all! The outside world isn't good either!"

Wanci looked at the seemingly fierce but actually aggrieved fox spirit in front of him and sighed slightly.

Human history is subject to change.

Wanci reached out and gently patted its fluffy head.

"It was my oversight."

He whispered ten thousand times, then remained silent for a moment.

"This continent is now rife with conflict, and the desires of mortals are rampant. It is indeed not a place for you to stay. Let me choose another place for you."

Upon hearing this, the Nine Lama immediately raised his head and nodded repeatedly, behaving extremely obediently: "Okay! I'll listen to my teacher!"

...........

Then, Manji personally showed Kurama a clear path, and also told Kurama...

"If the other party tries to attack you, you can fight back; there's no need to hold back! Kill if necessary!"

Wanci spoke directly to Nine-Tails.

Upon hearing this, Nine-Tails' eyes gleamed with excitement: "Teacher understands me best!"

"Also, if you encounter other tailed beasts, tell them that if humans insist on killing you, you can fight back."

"Enough is enough, there's no need to endure it any longer."

Wan Ci said.

Nine-Tails nodded repeatedly, agreeing with what the teacher said!

Kill those who deserve it!

Nine-Tails immediately spoke up and guaranteed:

"We, the nine tailed beasts, will always remember our master's words!"
