Chapter 107: Head Patting Submission!

With that, Bei Feng directly slept till 7 in the evening. When he woke up, he found that his body felt warm and comfortable.

All the cells in his body had been split once during just those several hours. With a light brush, a thick layer of dead skin turned into ash as it flew off him.

Although he still looked as skinny as a bamboo stick which could be blown away by the slightest breeze, his body had improved vastly compared to the previous state of being a bag of skin and bones.

"Looks like I'll still need to ingest large amounts of food during this period of time. But I believe that my body's stats will rise also rise swiftly!"

Bei Feng muttered as he heard his stomach growl.

Right now, his body's quality and his foundation were quite strong. But, the thing he lacked the most was energy. Take a powerful sports car for example. No matter how fast the car was, it was useless without enough quality fuel.

"Although I've been hit by all kinds of misfortune in a single day, it was completely worth it! Just the Minor Illumination Breathing Technique breaking through to Grand Completion is more than enough to make up for all my losses!"

Bei Feng felt much better as he thought to this point. Regardless, his money was still not something that could be taken away that easily!

To think that he'd actually fallen for such a cheap scheme... this was something that he couldn't swallow!

Bei Feng went down to the basement and sliced off 50-60 jin worth of meat and carried it up for Bai Xiang and the rest to cook.

Then, he simply went to take another bath.

'I seem to have grown a little taller?'

Bei Feng stood before a full-length mirror thoughtfully.

His skin was as white as jade and although his frame looked exceptionally skinny, it appeared to be containing boundless might!

The afternoon sunray truly had a shockingly good effect. If the dawn sunray could be compared to a noiseless and gentle spring shower, the afternoon sunray would be a humid summer's thunderstorm!

Although the two both had body tempering properties as their main utility, their methods were completely different!

"Heh heh, little foxy, it's time to settle the dept between us!"

Bei Feng grinned evilly as he put on his clothes.

Naturally, he had not forgotten that it was this little fox who had caused him so much trouble. Now that he had become immune to its passive ability, it was only right that he sorted that little fellow out properly!

Bei Feng returned to the basement and went to the corner where the little fox lay immobile in a little shoe box. Then, he directly removed the hook from its ear.

With a thought, the White Jade Fishing Rod returned into his body. Bei Feng grabbed the little fox by the scruff of its neck and carried it out to the yard leisurely, where he waited for it to wake up.

"Meep?" [1]

A few minutes passed before the little fox slowly regained its consciousness. It scanned its surroundings curiously while letting out a shrill cry.

Immediately, it began to stir vigorously, trying to run away. However, it found that it was somehow unable to break free, and finally realized that it had been caught. At a loss of what to do, its body suddenly went limp and its head drooped downwards lifelessly.

Bei Feng looked at it with shock for a short moment, and then started to chuckle deeply in his heart. 'Looks like this little fellow is really well practiced in doing stuff like feigning death...'

He held onto the little fox with amusement. How long will this fellow be able to continue feigning death for?

Half an hour went by, and the little fox finally opened its eyes slowly, peeping at its surroundings only to be greeted with the smiley face of a scary-looking skeleton man.

There was a strange look in the little fox's eyes. The way he looked at Bei Feng seemed to be filled with... uncertainty!

Right, from Bei Feng's point of view, the little fox was looking at him with a great amount of puzzlement and uncertainty. It simply didn't understand how this human was still alright after so long!

"Little foxy, you've already gotten me into trouble once, and now you want to do it a second time? Hehe, your abilities are already useless against me!"

Bei Feng lightly flicked a finger against the little fox's forehead, causing it to bare its teeth at him angrily.

After a while, the little fox stopped resisting and put on an extremely pitiful expression instead. Its eyes shone with tears of unbearable sadness, as though it was the most innocent little fox in the world, abandoned and left to fend for itself in the wild, suffering all kinds of grievances.

"Oh, what a poor little thing. Forget it, I'll just let you go this time."

Bei Feng felt a surge of emotion welling up within him and began to loosen his grip on the creature.

'Eh? Wait, something's wrong!'

Bei Feng's eyes glazed over for a moment. Right, he was not such a compassionate person!

Sensing that its chance had arrived, the little fox struggled violently in an attempt to break free.

"This little fox has such a terrifying mental power! Even I very nearly fell for its trick!" Bei Feng mumbled in shock as he tightened his grip and trained his eyes on the little fox resolutely.

Sensing the danger in Bei Feng's gaze, the little fox finally stopped struggling. 'Since there's nothing I can do against you, there's no point in wasting my strength. Just do whatever you want with me!'

Seeing the resigned look on the little fox's face, Bei Feng chuckled and pried the fruit away from the unwilling paws of the fox. Cutting it into half, Bei Feng could see numerous snow-white pulp grains. Each one was glittering and crystal clear, and a light fragrance rose off of it, causing one's appetite to rise.

"Crunch!"

Bei Feng could not resist picking up a grain of what the System called the 'White River Rice' and putting into his mouth. With just a light bite, the thin membrane surrounding the grain burst apart and a natural and pure energy flowed into his mouth.

The taste was not heavy, but it stayed on the tongue for a long time, leading to endless aftertaste.

Bei Feng kept a date-sized grain away, as a seed for planting more of the fruit in the future.

"Meep!"

The little fox was unable to watch from the side any longer, calling out in panic as it observed the fruit in Bei Feng's hand getting smaller and smaller.

Bei Feng revealed a sinister smile as he waved the fruit before the little fox. "You want this? If you want it, you should have just said so... how would I know that you want it if you don't tell me? En, since you are not saying anything, that must mean that you don't want it right? In that case, I'll eat this myself..."

Bei Feng laughed evilly as he popped another grain into his mouth. He even made an exaggerated smacking noise with his lips as he ate.

'This human is simply too hateful!' The little fox thought as it opened its mouth and chomped onto Bei Feng's hand with its sharp teeth.

But despite biting with all its might, it was simply unable to draw blood on the skeleton-man's palm! This fellow's skin was truly too thick! [2]

Bei Feng laughed and released the little fox completely. The little fox was suddenly suspended in mid air, dangling from the hateful human's palm with its teeth.

"Little fellow, you must be hungry right? Here, eat this."

Bei Feng let the little fox down and placed half the fruit in his other palm, extending it before the little fox while he patted the little creature on the head adoringly.

The little fox seemed to be momentarily startled, then became puzzled as it looked at Bei Feng with its beady eyes uncertainly.

"Meep!"

After some hesitation, it went forward and extended a short pink tongue to lick lightly at the spot where it had bitten Bei Feng.

"Haha! It's done! This head patting submission technique can really be called a godly technique!"

Bei Feng laughed smugly as he looked at the little fox's friendly actions.

That's right, Bei Feng already had his eye on the Fox of Natural and Human Calamity's incredible talent and skills right from the very beginning!

Now that he'd gained the friendship of such an overpowered creature, he could just send this fox out to curse anyone who dared to offend him in the future!

The little fox munched on the fruit cutely. After it finished eating, the little fellow hopped onto Bei Feng's shoulder and lay on it comfortably, using its head to nudge against Bei Feng's face lightly.

It had already accepted Bei Feng. Although it could sense that the human's intentions for befriending it was impure, it didn't matter. What it sought after the most was to finally not be lonely anymore!

The Fox of Natural and Human Calamity was a very special kind of creature. It was very intelligent and could also mimic the actions of others to a scary degree. Every fox had a slight possibility of becoming a Fox of Natural and Human Calamity, but a Fox of Natural and Human Calamity itself was actually unable to reproduce. Even if it somehow managed to produce an offspring, the baby would not become another Fox of Natural and Human Calamity.

Thus, from the time this little fox became a Fox of Natural and Human Calamity, it had been living its life in utter loneliness. Any animals which came into contact with it would always meet with very unfortunate events for some strange reason. But now, there was actually a human who wasn't afraid of it and was willing to befriend it! For the lonely little fox, this was the equivalent of finally finding a partner.

As Bei Feng scratched the back of the little fox's ear lightly, he could not help but to feel a great joy welling up in his heart. This little fox would be the strongest trump card in his hand!

[1]TL/N: What does the fox say? Bet you guys read that with a 'singing voice'. xd ED/N: According to my research, foxes actually make a lot of sounds: whines when they're little, yelps when they're a bit bigger, howls and barks when they're adults, and growls too. But this is not a normal fox, so there's no real point sticking to it, as it may be the same, or completely different. Btw, the raws said Jiu, but the -iu part is pronounced here similar to "-oh" from "uh-oh", and when I checked the dictionary, I didn't see any relation to a sound made by a canine... maybe the author doesn't know 'what does the fox say' or maybe he intended it to be different in the first place. So, might as well leave 'meep'. If you don't like it, you can just imagine it making whatever sound I mentioned here, or just listen to What does the fox say, lol.

[2] ED/N: A reminder, having thick skin equals being shameless (and conversely, having thin skin should equal being shy iirc)
