5 Curiosity trapped the Fox

It was still early in the morning, Guan Shi Yin sat in the corridor looking at the droplets that fell from the leaves in the trees, she loved to wake up early to smell the scent of an early morning forest, to her it seemed enchanting something that she could not grow tired of.

Just as peace was surrounding her, her power started to flare up causing her immense pressure to wake the rest of the beasts in her residence the first to come running like a well... wild fox was Guan Jing " Mother are you alright?" his face showed bitterness and anxiety. Guan Shi Yin looked at her son, and chuckled a little

" Jing'Er I'm alright no need to worry this is normal" she smiled at him and then made a smirk on her face " Jing'Er if Xian Nu Lu sees you like this...., I'm afraid that she will be shy" Just as his mother finished her words Guan Jing looked down at his appearance and felt a little ashamed ever since

Guan Shi Yin told everyone in the residence, that those who could transform into human appearance needed to wear clothes, that it was the correct thing to do, even though it had not been long since they started to do this he still felt a little self aware.

Guan Jing ran back to his chamber and after a while Xian Nu Lu walked out headed towards Shi Yin, she wore a peach pink dress and her hair was tied up into a bun, a little messy but compared to her first attempts, we can consider as progress. "M...Mother" Xian Nu Lu had yet to get used to calling the goddess this.

"Lu'Er you look cute today, I see you are getting better at taking care of yourself, tell me what troubles you"

Xian Nu Lu felt joy of being praised by her goddess, but something still trouble her for these past days " Mother, do we really have to go to the human village?, I remember Fox Lord said not to get near the human villages "

"I know, indeed I instructed him that you should stay away from the human villages, you did not know how to act or interact with them and you did not have your human form, but now I am here, and I also have taught you how to imitate them, so what is there to worry about my dear?"

Xian Nu Lu thought for a while until she agreed, the insecurity in her heart did not vanish completely but her goddess needed her, and she will do her best to complete her tasks.

"Mother is there any additional preparations that you'd like before we depart?"

"No dear, just call Jing'Er and we'll set of to the village" The Goddess gave her child a warm smile making Xian Nu Lu feel happy, she went to find Guan Jing and told him that they had to protect their Mother no matter what, of course Guan Jing agreed immediately

"Since everything is prepared place our food in the spacial jade, it will make it easier for us" Shi Yin took the spacial Jade out and asked Guan Jing to tap their provisions and in an instant they disappeared although Guan Jing had already seen the existence of these artifact is still marvouled him as much as it did Xian Nu Lu. The Jade was well made with roses and Phoenix peacock like feathers emblemed on it.

Before they all departed she told them to turn into their beast form for a while before turning back to their human appearance to avoid humans wandering into the residence.

Guan Jing turned into his Nine Tailed Fox form although he was 2000 years old he still had the appearance of a young pup, next Xian Nu Lu turned into a beautiful white Deer... Soon their Mother started to transform a smoke wall formed...

A dazzling black fox with its tails seemed be dipped in red paint, emerged from the smoke wall

"Mother??" Both of her children looked somewhat dumbfounded.

"Yes?"

"How come you look like a Kitsune? Just like me..." Guan Jing felt very happy to look at his mother because she looked like him and like this it really did seem like she was his mother

" Does it make you unhappy?" she asked with worry in her eyes

"No, Im extremely happy" he smiled at her, Xian Nu Lu got close to them "Mother is this your true form" she seemed a little curious, she knew her 'Mother' had fire attribute but did not expect her to be a Fox spirit
