Leap Forward Comics: Watch How I Become a Villainess

Chapter 169 The Male Lead Killer Squad!

"Miss Qinwu! Where is Miss Qinwu? Which one of you is Miss Qinwu?"

Just then, an elderly man with a cane came up from the other side of the hillside.

His hair and beard were gray, and his eyesight didn't seem to be very good. You could tell that he was trying very hard to search for that unfamiliar figure in the crowd.

"It's me, it's me!" Lu He quickly stood up and raised his hand.

"The Fox King requests your presence. Miss Qinwu, please accompany this old man." The old man appeared to be a very kind person.

"We're here!" Lu He nimbly leaped up the hillside and followed the old man deeper into Hundred Steps Hill.

A waterfall cascades down from the mountaintop in the distance, splashing up layers of mist, making the caves over there look like a fairyland.

This cave is where the Fox King lives.

At the entrance of the cave, a clear spring flows down, forming a small waterfall.

This place looks like it belongs to a demon or immortal, more like the "Water Curtain Cave." (The implication is that it's definitely not inhabited by humans.)

Lu He looked around with an air of naive curiosity, his neck almost twisted in a circle.

You know what, you've only ever seen scenes like this in games or special effects. Even when filming movies and TV shows, you can't find a filming location like this. It's so ethereal and pristine, a kind of beauty untouched by human pollution.

"Is this your first time here, young friend?" the old man asked in a kind tone.

"Yes, this place is so beautiful, I've never seen anything like it before."

"But I heard that you used to live in Spirit Beast Mountain, which is a more beautiful place than Hundred Steps Hill. How come you say you have never seen such scenery before?"

As expected, experience counts, and eyes are sharp; he immediately noticed Lu He's odd behavior.

"Could it be that you are not a demon beast from Spirit Beast Mountain, young friend?" Although the old man's voice was still kind, there was a slight sense of vigilance in his eyes.

"I hope you will be honest with me and not hide anything, as that would make you seem insincere."

"I...I have indeed been at Spirit Beast Mountain the whole time, but," Lu He racked his brains, not wanting to give a slip-up, "I've been cultivating within the spiritual veins of Spirit Beast Mountain, and have almost never come out..."

After saying this, Lu He was sweating profusely, anxiously awaiting the other party's reaction.

"I see. So the demonic beasts you mentioned that practice evil arts have also been within the spiritual veins all along?" It seems that Nagiya has relayed all that information to the Fox King.

“That’s right,” Lu He immediately began wiping away tears and started accusing Tan You: “He practiced evil arts, and when I discovered it, he tried to steal my inner core and then kill me to silence me. If I hadn’t diligently cultivated myself, I would probably be the one capturing my soul now…”

She wiped away a few tears after saying that.

Because of her vivid and expressive performance, the old man was clearly quite convinced.

"Poor child, go inside quickly and talk to the Fox King."

Lu He followed the old man deeper into the cave.

The cave is filled with light and color, and the various oddly shaped rocks present ever-changing postures under the dim light. The lush moss on the cave walls looks particularly beautiful under the reflection of the flowing water.

It looked nice, but the humidity felt too heavy, and Lu He shivered uncomfortably.

As you walk further in, you gradually see traces of the cave palace's elaborate renovation, and the crystal tables and chairs are all covered with fox fur.

"Why are they all made of fox fur? Are you using your own fur as decorations?" Lu He was completely baffled.

"Young friend, you're mistaken. This isn't fur, it's just fur. We shed, you know. We just collect the fur and weave it into a blanket." Old Man Fire Fox laughed heartily, admiring Lu He's imagination.

Lu He nodded thoughtfully.

Finally, they arrived at a very magnificent palace. The middle-aged man who looked very refined must be the Fox King.

"Fox King, Miss Qinwu has arrived." After reporting this, the old man went to the side and found a place to sit and eat some fruit.

It seems that the royal family of monsters doesn't have as many rules as humans; they seem quite casual.

For a moment, Lu He was unsure whether she should perform a grand salute or something.

"Is this Miss Qinwu?" the Fox King spoke to her gently.

"It's her! She's Miss Qinwu. She brought the news. She's incredibly powerful. She even fought that evil monster, was injured by the power of the phoenix, and still survived. Don't you think she's amazing?"

Before Lu He could answer, Nagi started rambling on and on like a storyteller.

That's great. Now we'll have partners to fool people. We can fool people as a group and be invincible.

Lu He nodded repeatedly, accepting all of Nagi's words.

"If that's the case, where is the demon now?" Is the Fox King planning to go and eliminate it directly?

"Uh, he was also injured and knocked down into the valley. He shouldn't be in Spirit Beast Mountain anymore. I don't know where he is." Lu He hesitated for a moment before revealing that he had been rescued by humans and was now in a human village.

"In that case, I will send my daughter with you to search for her. Once found, kill her without mercy!" The Fox King waved his hand: "Zhiyan!"

The graceful girl from the comic walked in, as if tearing down the dimensional barrier. The girl in real life was even more beautiful than she was in the comic.

Lu He was stunned. She felt that even the legendary Daji was nothing special.

"How about it? Isn't it beautiful? This will be my partner from now on." Nagiya said with a proud expression.

"Tch, if it were the original story, it wouldn't be yours..." Lu He muttered to himself, pouting.

"Dad, do you need something?" Zhiyan's words startled Lu He. Was she really that straightforward? She called him "Dad" directly, without even using the respectful title of Fox King?

Looking at the Fox King again, he showed no sign of anger and remained as gentle and refined as ever.

She gently recounted everything that had just happened to Zhiyan.

"I understand," Zhiyan glanced at Lu He sideways, "You're Qin Wu?"

Those purple eyes were captivating, like the purple mist of dawn, possessing a hazy, ethereal beauty.

I clearly remember saying just now that Firefox has green eyes.

Why does Zhiyan have purple eyes?

It seems she... is probably a cross-dresser too... Lu He thought to herself.

Her younger brother, Xiao Jiu, is a hybrid, and she probably isn't a purebred Firefox either.

Tsk tsk tsk, this fox king looks like the kind of refined and romantic guy who's always owing emotional debts.

Who knows, he might be secretly having affairs with some other children outside.

Lu He clicked her tongue inwardly. After all, this was a harem manga. Not only did the male protagonist have a harem, but probably all the male characters would also have one.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Zhiyan moved closer and looked at Lu He.

"Uh, I, yes, Qin Wu is me." Lu He felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and hurriedly answered.

In her panic, she somehow suddenly noticed a cat's tail appearing and swaying behind her.

"Oh, so it's a cat demon, its cat tail is showing." Zhiyan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a charming and alluring aura.

So it's not just foxes whose tails show, cats do too? Lu He blushed slightly; she hadn't gotten used to being a cat yet.

"Sister! Take me with you!" Xiao Jiu's voice came from afar as she rushed in from outside.

"I also need to go!"

"Go where are you going? Go to the side." Zhiyan rolled her eyes at him and grabbed his ear.

"Ouch, ouch, sister, stop! It hurts!" Xiao Jiu howled.

"What are you doing going out there? You're just a burden." Zhiyan scolded Xiao Jiu mercilessly.

"Take him along, the child is quite cute," Lu He quickly tried to smooth things over.

"He's cute?" Zhiyan looked at Lu He in surprise: "Are you kidding me? This kid has a terrible personality. Don't be fooled by his appearance."

Zhiyan doesn't seem like a brother-obsessed person at all. Would she really approach Tanyou for his sake?

No matter how I think about it, it just doesn't feel right.

Xiao Jiu was grabbed by the ear and cried out in pain.

The Fox King finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Alright, Zhiyan, take him with you. Maybe he can improve by going out and training."

Nagi also spoke up, saying, "I'll go with you too. It'll be good to have someone to look after you on the way. Take Kyu along too, I'll look after him."

He volunteered to take care of the child.

This is great, after all, Lu He doesn't like taking care of children, even though she only liked this child because of his unlimited level.

They only want to use the child, not raise it.
