Chapter 5: You, stop right there!

  She had already made up her mind, so Hu Xiaoxian put away the treasures she had played with since childhood and packed them into a large backpack. She was ready to leave this place and go to the mortal world to find that little boy who had once saved her.

  "Little fairy! Where are you going again?" A soft yet cold voice came from outside the grand hall.

  Hú Xiǎo Xiān's forehead involuntarily drew a few black lines, oh no! Mother actually came back, I should have known to sneak away quietly. What to do now? She forced a dry smile, "Mother, I want to go out for some fresh air."

  "Going out for a breath of fresh air? Do you need to carry such a big backpack for that?" The beautiful and delicate-looking Fox Spirit, Hu Měi Lì, walked over.

  "Then I won't bring this backpack out, can that be okay?" Huo Xiaoxian compromised and put down the cumbersome backpack on her body, muttering to herself: "This backpack is so big and heavy, it's not worth bringing. Anyway, I, Huo Xiaoxian, still know a bit of magic, if I need something, I can just conjure it up, right?"

  With a secret delight, Fox Little Immortal was about to take big strides and walk away

  。

  "Halt!" Fox Spirit's cold voice came again.

  The little fox fairy turned her head back, giggled and said, "That mother of mine, getting angry is bad for the skin, speaking loudly is bad for the throat, and constantly worrying about my affairs is bad for the heart, so..."

  "So what?" Huo Meili stared at Huo Xiaoxian's flickering eyes, "Xiaoxian, don't think about changing the subject, do you want to get some air? Isn't this huge Huanhua Palace enough for you to get some air? You still want to go out! Didn't the lesson from last time suffice?"

  "Mother..." Fox Little Immortal put on a pitiful expression, "Mother, I actually want to go find that little tiger tooth who saved me nine years ago."

  "Little Tiger's Tooth?" Huo Mei Li looked at Huo Xiao Xian with confusion, not understanding what she meant.

  "Yes, I forgot. Mother, you don't know that the nickname 'Little Tiger Tooth' was given by me because I didn't know his real name. I only knew he looked good when smiling and would show two little tiger-like teeth." Hu Xiaoxian hastily introduced him to her mother, hoping to get her approval.

  "What's the big deal? Whether he's Big Tiger Tooth or Little Tiger Tooth, you're not allowed to go!" Hu Mei Li glared at Hu Xiao Xian, how could she let her mischievous and troublesome little sister run wild again.

  "Mother, didn't you tell me that even as a fox spirit, one must know how to repay kindness? You also said that when someone gives us a drop of water in our time of need, we should return it with a gushing spring. Fox Little Immortal pulled on her mother's hand, coquettishly saying "Mother, just agree already! Agree!"

  The fox spirit's heart wasn't made of iron, and she was still somewhat moved. "Little immortal, then how do you want to repay me?"

  "I... " wanted to know how to repay, but Hu Xiao Xian had never really thought about it before. She felt that she couldn't just say a simple "thank you" and be done with it. Her heart also involuntarily arose with difficulties, "I wonder if he will still remember me?"

  The fox spirit shot a glance at the little white fox, pouting her mouth. "How could he possibly remember you? Don't forget that he's human and you're a fox - you're from completely different worlds!"

  "I know we're not from the same world, but I just want to go see him, even if it's just to say thank you," Hu Xiao Xian started grasping her mother Hu Mei Li's hand again, using her spoiled expression, "Mother, can I go? Please?"
