Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

Chapter 350 – Spider knows the good stuff ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Aiko woke up to Mei staring at the ceiling with eyes wide open. She wondered what was wrong with Mei, so she likewise looked up.

There was a small jumping spider weaving its webs and making itself a nest.

"Oh, spidey came back." Aiko yawned as she slurred his name.

Mei turned around to look at Aiko. "You know it?"

"Yeah." Aiko yawned again before hugging Mei in her sleepy state. "That spider is from that one egg out of the cave I looted and it probably broke through its shelf when I was Evolving." She nuzzled Mei in her sleep.

Mei was concerned about Aiko's behaviour. If that behaviour caught on with the others, they could be infected by Aiko's carelessness!

"Oh, and he is my Beast Familiar for some reason." Aiko wanted to gently bite Mei's shoulder, but Mei pushed her away.

"What do you mean by Beast Familiar?" Mei was confused.

"I feel connected to him since my Evolution and I can hear his thoughts." Aiko answered absent-mindedly.

Mei felt like she had yet another headache, but since that spider was cute, she would let it go for now.

"What can he do?" Mei asked.

Aiko stretched her hand lazily and the small jumping spider that was the size of a pillow jumped on her hand.

The jumping spider was much bigger than Aiko's hand, yet it was a lot lighter than one would expect.

The spider immediately weaved her threads, trying to create some kind of silk gloves for Aiko.

When Mei was not speechless about Aiko's laziness, she was mesmerised by the little spider's work.

While it was far from what clothiers could create, considering this was just a tiny Beast, it was quite incredible.

Mei stretched her hand curiously, since this was Aiko's familiar, it shouldn't bite her. She normally doesn't like spiders, but this one is oddly cute.

The spider noticed a hand approaching her and froze in place. She didn't move for a while as Mei petted her.

Soon after the spider made more silk and wrapped it around Mei, she was stunned by that silky smooth sensation on her skin.

"This is better than Nightmare Spider Silk." Mei could not believe her own words, but she was already so used to Nightmare Spider Silk that she was able to tell the minute differences.

Mei stretched her other hand, so she could pet it gently. She looked at the spider curiously as she was wrapping silk around her hands.

Mei was confused at first, but then the spider suddenly tightened its silk around Mei's hand, binding her wrists with silk-like pair of soft handcuffs.

"Huh...?" Mei was startled, but then she noticed that her legs were likewise bound by the same silk.

"Sleep more." Aiko groaned unhappily as she gently bit Mei's shoulder.

"Ah-!" Mei was startled, since she was unable to defend herself properly with bound hands.

"What ah... eh?" Aiko blinked her sleepy eyes a few times if her sight didn't deceive her.

"I didn't know you had such ki-" Aiko commented on Mei's fetishes, but was stopped by the flustered Mei.

"W-what do you mean kink?! This is not my kink! Your stupid spider did this to me!" Mei felt upset at Aiko immediately making that conjecture.

"Good job, spider." Aiko praised it, but when she noticed Mei's glare, she coughed awkwardly. "Bad spider." *Cough* "Allow me to help you."

"No." Mei noticed the obscene smile she had and immediately rejected Aiko's help.

"Awww." Aiko tried to get close to her, but Mei would push her away with her hands.

Aiko would have none of it and once again bit Mei, but this time on her palm.

"Ah!" Mei was shocked by Aiko's shameless behaviour and tried to protect her body from Aiko's lips. The reason was that she was excited about the fact that Aiko was so enthusiastic about her.

Mei then suddenly paused, and a certain question appeared inside her mind. "Why do you always bite me?" It was not impossible that Aiko loved her, but Mei just wanted to make sure how she should progress her mentality.

She didn't dislike Aiko, but her pushy behaviour felt quite heavy on her mind.

"I don't know." Aiko never thought about it. "Because it's tasty?" She observed Mei's body while licking her lips.

Mei shivered and blushed the deepest red to date. "Y-you, shameless fiend!"

Aiko giggled. "Yeah~! I'm a shameless fiend and Mei's Mate~!" She hummed happily, making Mei even more embarrassed about this whole thing.

"I'm not your real Mate!" Mei proclaimed.

"You are now." Aiko immediately asserted her position.

"Then what do you think you are doing with Blood Fox and Yuxi?!" Mei glared at Aiko.

"They are part of the team, so it's only natural I dote on them." Aiko nodded gently. She saw nothing wrong with this.

"You can only choose either me or your little harem!" Mei glared and pouted at Aiko.

"Hmmmm..." Aiko pondered on it, making Mei even more upset.

"Why not both?" Aiko tilted her head. "Both is good."

Before Mei could reprimand Aiko, she continued. "I get to play with everyone and you will get free servants that you can order around, isn't that a win-win situation for everyone?" She tilted her head.

At this point, Mei really had a headache from Aiko. Her mind was unable to wrap around Aiko's reasoning.

"Blood Fox doesn't like me." Mei glared at Aiko.

"She will come around once she matures." Aiko believed that to be the case.

"And what if she doesn't?" Mei snorted unhappily.

"We can both jump on her and play with her?" Aiko believed that this was the best solution. That way, Mei, and the Blood Fox would be able to sort out their differences while Aiko would have her fill~!

Oh, poor Aiko, not knowing that this was one of the biggest mistakes of her life...

...

Mei was pouting while Aiko was sitting nearby from being scolded by her.

"Mei..." Aiko tried to get close to her, but Mei pushed her back to her place.

"I'm not talking to you. You have upset me." Mei pouted and shooed Aiko outside.

The Blood Fox was just walking around and Mei snorted before slamming the doors behind her.

The Blood Fox could not understand this strange behaviour, so she focused on Aiko. "You got kicked out again?"

"No...? Yes...? Maybe?" Aiko was unsure about what just happened. Why was Mei so mad at her? She didn't say anything bad.

Aiko did not understand that Mei was not as open-minded as other Foxes. She wasn't a demonic fox that would demanded exclusivity from her partner.

"We are packing our things to move to a place rich in Qi. There, Feifei and Mei will be able to reach the Foundation Establishment." The Blood Fox said briefly before continuing to walk forward.

"Oh?" Aiko was curious about that place.

"You can't eat it." The Blood Fox immediately said, just in case, to stop Aiko from going ahead to look for that place, and destroying it in turn.

"I never said I wanted to eat it." Aiko already grew up from her eating stage and now she was at the biting stage. It felt like she was going backwards, but since she was reprimanded less like this, it didn't feel like it for Aiko.

She was happy that she was scolded less by everyone.

Aiko just had to keep a few rules in her mind and she would be able to get away from everything!

This was good news, especially since she can use her Moon Form to decide which rules are beneficial and which she can throw out of the window.

'There is also so much stuff to do...' Aiko narrowed her eyes. She wanted to play around, but her Moon Form wanted to work hard. Especially on things like the [Soul Domain] or [Beast Core Formation].

'Ah! I forgot to ask Mei about Pill Cauldrons!' The 'Shadow' Aiko suddenly realised her error, but she still couldn't bring herself to regret her actions.

She liked Mei, since she tasted sweet and soft. It was also fun biting her since her reactions were just adorable.

Aiko had a twisted sense of fun, since she was in her Demonic Form. That was also the reason; why her Moon Form took her as a different being, since the differences in their state of mind were so great.@@novelbin@@

Aiko would have to visit Mei later about the Pill Cauldron.

"Can I help with something?" Aiko wanted to fool around with Yuxi, but she could not see her around, plus the contract was too faint to track for some reason...

"Yes, you can help us pack everything that is ours, you can use your Storage Rings or anything else that can store things." The Blood Fox welcomed this help. "You don't have to look for the Twins, since they are recovering loot from 'Cultivators'."

The Blood Fox noticed that the captured Cultivators still had plenty of Treasures and there were also their fellow Cultivators that wanted to rescue them.

As such, there were many captured Cultivators in that place and the Blood Fox wanted to get rid of them.

Those that would surrender their Treasures would be spared, while those that would not, would have their Souls pierced by the Twins.

At best, they just would be severely injured, but at worst they would become even bigger fools.

Their Souls would be so damaged that their whole persona would be wiped clean just as when they were born and they would have to relearn all those experiences again to return to being a functional human being.

The Blood Fox shook her head as she saw Aiko shoving everything into her tails.

"You really make my work harder." She sighed.

"Why?!" Aiko felt like she was being bullied for no reason.

"Because your tails would get dirty and they are also too big. You have to learn how to keep your tails high, so that they don't become as dirty..." The Blood Fox sighed again, shaking her head gently.

Aiko was too carefree when she was taking care of her body and that was only natural since she was a bit too free-spirited.

The Blood Fox would have to slow Aiko down, so that she would learn properly how to maintain her dignity!
