Chapter 46: An Year Later
After Lin Yan and Xiao Bai left Doctor Qin’s medicine store, Lin Yan deliberately went to investigate the cause of Doctor Qin’s death.
Doctor Qin was a cultivator. Although his cultivation base was low, he would not have trouble living for at least a hundred years with his above-average physique.
His passing away at the age of fewer than 50 years seemed fishy.
However, after Lin Yan was done investigating, he was disappointed at the conclusion he had arrived at.
Doctor Qin was the cause of his death, not a victim of someone else’s scheme. It was due to him being over-enthusiastic about his cultivation.
Something had gone wrong with his cultivation, which ultimately led to his demise.
The path of cultivation was like going against the sky. Each step was filled with numerous hardships.
Though Doctor Qin wasn’t very talented, he still forced himself to cultivate, which had ended him this way.
Only after Lin Yan paid respects to Doctor Qin’s grave did he and Xiao Bai head back.
…
Xiao Bai was undoubtedly curious about everything outside the desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. But what she was more concerned about was the matter of her transformation.
If she couldn’t transform, she would forever remain like a little white fox and could only lie on Lin Yan’s shoulder all the time.
But if she did succeed in transforming, she could walk beside Lin Yan in a dignified manner.
If she wanted to, she could even pull Lin Yan’s hand …and kiss Lin Yan’s cheek to feel the temperature of his lips.
Xiao Bai, lying on Lin Yan’s shoulder, thought so happily.
Initially, she wasn’t that persistent about the transformation, but in the two years she followed Lin Yan, from the desolate Ancient Forbidden Land to now, she had seen many human couples flirting and being intimate with each other.
As days passed, her thoughts began to run more and more wildly. She was eager like never before, to take a human form.
Although Lin Yan didn’t know what was in Xiao Bai’s mind, he could see that Xiao Bai was anxious about the matter of transformation.
So he took her with him and began searching for a way to help her transform.
During that period, they had encountered countless treasures that they thought would aid her in her transformation.
However, none could help Xiao Bai.advancechaptersareavailable

(Outside the Linglong Treasure Mirror)
“…There must be something wrong with this little fox.”
Looking at Lin Yan and Xiao Bai, the people around couldn’t help but mutter themselves.
At the Dao Entry Realm, the demon races have the innate ability to take a human form.
But as the little white fox couldn’t make herself transform, they concluded that something was wrong with her.
Just as the crowd began to mutter to themselves, the figure of a Demon Sage flashed out of thin air and flew into the Nine Heavens Palace.
“My Queen, I have found some clues about this little fox.”
This Demon Sage that had just shown up said loudly, catching the crowd’s attention.
The Demon Queen had sent the Demon Sage before to investigate the little fox.
When he returned, the entire place was filled with shouting voices at the moment.
A hint of displeasure flashed in the Demon Queen’s face, but she still nodded and said, “Tell me what all you found.”
The Demon Saint immediately reported, “Around 11,000 years ago, the little white fox, alias Xiao Bai, was seen in the territory of the Fei Lian Demon Empire … Not long after, the young Heavenly Emperor showed up and annihilated the Fei Lian Demon Empire. After the news died down, the whereabouts of this little fox were unknown.”
By the time the voice of the Demon Saint disappeared, the people all around exclaimed immediately.
“…Eleven thousand years ago, the young Heavenly Emperor destroyed the Fei Lian Demon Empire and was bestowed the title “Great Demon Subduer” by the previous Heavenly Emperor. It was the earliest record of the Heavenly Emperor …According to the time calculation inside the Linglong Treasure Mirror, there will be at most one more year after which we can witness that event.”
As they had been watching it for so long, they could roughly estimate that everything shown in the mirror was about 11,000 years ago, the exact time that the Demon Sage had told them.
Of course, they immediately supposed that based on the time shown in the Linglong Treasure Mirror, a mishap would strike Lin Yan and the little white fox in another year at most.
It might cause the Heavenly Emperor to go berserk and even exterminate a mighty Demon Empire all by himself.
“In just a year?”
The crowd turned silent and retracted their gazes to Linglong Treasure Mirror before them, curious to see what happened that following year.
…
(Inside the Linglong Treasure Mirror)
Several months had passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Yan with Xiao Bai traveled through many places in the Lingxuan Continent.
He had even infiltrated some cultivator clans.
But no matter what, there was still no clue about the matter of Xiao Bai’s transformation, which made Xiao Bai feel bitter.
…
Until one day, when the duo was resting in a mountain forest, Xiao Bai suddenly said she wanted to eat the fluffy cake she had eaten the day before.advancechaptersareavailable
Considering Xiao Bai’s big appetite, Lin Yan immediately rushed to the nearby town to buy her some cakes.
But when he returned, there was no trace of Xiao Bai in the mountain forest.
