nChapter 81 A Family Of Fox-Kin

n“Chase her!”

n“Don’t let her get away!”

n“Get her at all costs! We’ll be hefty rich if we managed to enslave them”

nIn the middle of the forest, there were a group of cultivators chasing what seems to be a family of fox-kin.

n“M-Mum t-they’re getting closer”

n“I-I’m scared mum”

n“M-Mum w-where are we going?”

nOn the other side of hand, three female children questioned their only mother.

n“Don’t worry my children they won’t catch us and we’re going to a safe place”

nThe mother comforted her children, however, only she knows how dangerous the situation is.

nShe has no idea where she’s going and neither could she keep up with the chase.

nShe was panicking and her anxiety grew with each second.

nShe truly didn’t know where to go and what she should do.

nBut seeing the worries in the eyes of her children, she hardened her resolve and ran faster.

nShe couldn’t help but bit her lips when recalling how she ended up in this situation.

nIt happened 1 month ago when she was living happily together with her mating partner and her children.

nBut it all crumbled down when her tribe and habitat were invaded by Slave Traders.

nThe Slave Traders were a group or rather an organization that operates on a worldwide scale where their resources and network were everywhere.

nBecause of the constant demand and market, tribes like the fox-kin were targeted due to their natural beauty and rarity.

nWith their golden silky hair, eyes and fluffy tails, they were an existence that every living person wish to own, and the price of having one is quite enormous.

nDue to the price that was marketed, the slave trades often took on the request which is why, the fox-kin tribe were targeted most of the time.

nNevertheless, the habitat of a fox kin would have its guardian who’s the most powerful fox kin of all, and they are quite powerful.

nUnfortunately, the habitat that the family of fox-kin belong to didn’t have a powerful guardian, and thus, their tribe were invaded and now, they were the only family that had escaped.

nAs for her mating partner, he had rather abandoned his duty and run for his life, living behind her and his children.

nNot willing to abandon her children, she carried them and ran as fast as she could, and it has been weeks since she was chased.

n‘I don’t know how long I could run and neither are there any signs of shelter’

nShe was getting worried and her hope of escaping from this situation began dimming.

nHer energy and stamina are running out soon and it won’t be long before they will be captured.

n‘What should I do?’

nShe questioned hopelessly while looking at her children who were crying.

nThe longer she pondered the more she thought that she had no choice.

n‘It’s better than nothing’

nShe bit her lips and made the decision that would cost her life.

n“Evelyn, Eleona and Eliana”

nShe called out their names with a heavy tone and as she caught their attention, she began explaining what would happen from now on.

n“I want all of you to run and never look back no matter what happens,” She said.

n“B-But mo-

n“Listen to me, Evelyn! You’re the Eldest here and I want you to lead your sisters and run as you could”

n“Don’t worry. I would be back with all of you so you have to promise that you would run without looking back. Can all of you promise me that?”

nShe was left with no choice but to handle the groups of cultivators by herself and sacrifice her life for the sake of her children.

nShe didn’t mind losing her life, but the thought of losing her child to a sicken rich bastard hurts her more than what death could do to her.

nThus, she chose to sacrifice her life and of course, the children were naive to believe her words.

n“Alright, mum. But you have to promise us that you’ll return”

nOne of them questioned innocently without understanding what would be the consequences of her mother’s choice.

n“Good Eleona”

nShe smiled knowing that her children were convinced by her words and currently, she was nothing more than to cry on the spot.

nAfter this, she won’t ever see her children again and she won’t have any clue what would be their future.

nShe even has no idea whether she would be killed or marked as a slave.

nHowever, she couldn’t cry or show her weak side to her children who were relying on their mother.

nShe needed to be strong for them until they had escaped fully.

n“Good my children and I love all of you with my heart”

nShe stopped running and hugged her children for one last time before asking them to run.𝐞𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥．𝗰𝐨𝗺

n“Now run and don’t look back!”

nShe exclaimed and they trembled for a moment hearing her voice before running with tears strimming down their faces.

nAnd as her children run, she never once turned her head around because if she did…she would break down.

n‘I have to be strong…at least until they escaped…’

nHer tears were running down her face and she took moments to reshape her emotions before opening her eyes which were filled with determination.

nShe was ready to lay down her life fighting against the group of cultivators and she was aware that after this, her life won’t be controlled by her hands anymore.

n“Oh? What is this? You’re sacrificing yourself to save your children?”

nOnce the group had caught up, the Leader of the group walked out and mocked.

n“Well, it doesn’t matter. Once we deal with you, we could chase the children. After all, we do have plenty of customers who prefer children and you’d also fetch quite a huge amount”

nHe rubbed his chin while gazing at her body with lust.

n“Over my dead bodies, you humans scum”

nShe growled with her tails raised.

n“Hmpf. Whatever you say and in the end, you would be enslaved by us”

nHe mocked and he gave his signal to his men to prepare for a fight.

nThe woman knew that fighting was her current prowess and won’t be able to defeat all of them.

nAfter all, she was against 30 of them and the reason why they prepared this much was because even though the fox-kin is a small group of the tribe, each of them possesses a cultivation base that is stronger than the average.

nMoreover, with their unique bloodline, spiritual root and also physique, they were a troublesome foe to deal with.

nThus, they formed this group, especially for her.

nAt the same time, she was aware that she won’t be able to live. Thus, to ensure that she could take all of them, she had to use the forbidden technique of the tribe.

n“Illumination…”

nShe muttered and out of nowhere, her tail which originally had four grew to six tails.

nHer hair grew longer and the colour of her eyes was lightened up.

nHer skin thickened and solidified while it became whiter, and her nails grew longer and sharper.

nOverall, her physical appearance had changed but what’s frightening about her current demeanour is the aura she’s spooking out.

nThe winds around started brewing aggressively and the men were pressured by the sudden changes that happened to her.

n“Fuck! She has used Illumination during the day!”

nThe leader screamed in panic as he didn’t expect that the fox girl would use the forbidden technique during the day.

n“It’s too late to regret now humans…so please die”

nThe moment she used ‘Illumination’, she knew that her lifespan was decreasing rapidly each second and she have to kill them before the time runs out.

n“Don’t engage her directly! Just passively defend till the time limit of her transformation runs out”

nThe Leader gave his order and also did not engage with her.

n“Let’s see if you can defend against this”

nShe smirked before engaging in a death battle with the group.

nTaking the first move, she manifested a yellowish orb that contains a destructive force and she launched against them.

nThe time it took to construct the orb was just a second and the time it took for it to reach their side was just another second.

nThus, the moment it landed and impacted their side, no one realized what just happened before an explosion occurs.

n*Boom*

nA yellowish burst of light exploded on one side, killing at least 5 men and injuring 8 of them.

nHowever, she didn’t stop attacking.

nKnowing that her life would end in a minute or two, she knew that she needed to end it fast or else all of it would be wasted.

nHence, she had no time to think and depended on her instinct for the next move.

nOn the other hand, the Leader was clueless as to what happened.

nHe was just focusing his eyes on her and moments later, there was an explosion.

nBut before he could give his order, another explosion occurred.

nIt was too fast for him to react and gave his order.

n‘Screw it. You leave me with no choice and I have to use this’ He muttered.

n‘I really don’t like borrowing the power from that ‘Force’ but ** it. You’ll be a dead woman’

nHe was furious and he took out an ominous black scroll which seems to be a summoning type of scroll.

n“You’re dead woman!”

nHe exclaimed and opened up the scroll and a black light flashed out before a certain ‘being’ was summoned.
