579 Words
“Um, I wasn’t reading anything…”
Lucy stepped back – now when she found out he had killed an innocent bunny princess, he really seemed like the ruthless Blood Moon Fox.
“Huh?” Yuehong grabbed the book dropped by her and took a glance at its cover. “Oh, De Lapin Clan History?” he raised both of his eyebrows and looked at Lucy, to notice her fear. “You dummy…” he softly pressed her to his chest, “Do you sincerely believe I’d ever kill anyone unjustly?”
“Then, what happened to that bunny princess?”
He sighed:
“If a spirit is not celestial, their lives are not eternal.”
Lucy raised an eyebrow:
“But what_”
Her phone rang. She picked it up:
“Hello?”
“Lulu, it is Lily. Samantha is missing! I left her alone with Sandy only for five minutes to go over to a grocery shop, and they both are gone! I need you! Sammy and Incubus are on a mission, they cannot arrive yet. Please!”
The phone fell off Lucy’s hand. She shuddered.
“What is it?” Yuehong asked.
“Yuehong, please, we need to get to Lily’s RV as soon as possible! Sam and Sandy have gone!”
Yuehong gasped at such information. He grabbed Lucy up in his hands:
“Hang on tight!”
He rushed out of the school building and jumped into the sky. Lucy yelled in fright and quickly clung to his neck. In a few seconds, they already landed at Lily’s RV.
“I searched the whole RV,” Lily cried, “They’re not here! There’s only some weird rabbit aura left! I can’t understand what happened!”
“Lady Lilith…”
Lily started and looked at Yuehong – only now did she notice it was none other than the celestial fox of nine tails!
“Ah, Lord Huli, it’s you!”
“Let’s drop the formalities, Lady Lilith. You mentioned there was some rabbit aura left. Did you perchance sense fire element?”
“Now that you say it, there was indeed some spiritual fire presence,” Lily replied.
Lucy blinked with even more confusion:
“Spiritual fire? What are you guys talking about?”
“It is simple – if there were indeed fire rabbits, it means that they have already made their move,” Yuehong said.
“Who, ‘they’?” Lucy asked in wonder.
“The Kaninchen Clan.” Yuehong clenched his fist in anger as if bearing some ancient grudge against the Kaninchen Clan. “I grew suspicious even earlier when their princess Margaret appeared in your class, but now it all seems clear.”
“W… What seems clear?”
“We Huli Clan and the Kaninchen Clan are ancient enemies. I need to alert the Huli Queen before any further disaster happens. She is the only one who can help us now.”
“Wait, Huli Queen?” Lucy grew astonished, “You have a wife?”
Didn’t he say in my dream that his wife was that bunny princess Lutecia De Lapin?
“No. My wife is deceased.” Yuehong sighed. A bitter but loving smile formed on his face: “Huli Queen is my daughter.”
Lucy gasped – daughter?!
