Against the Golden Fox

Alex found Ren Wujin not far away, trying to come back to the group of weaker cultivators, probably trying to get done with her first battle of the day.

He could sense her sensing him, but that didn't stop him from flying toward her. Ren Wujin thought of flying away, but on second thought, she stood her ground.

Alex arrived there a moment later and landed in front of her and the group of 15 cultivators. He was about to challenge her when he realized that she had been waiting for him to.

'She's waiting to reject me,' Alex thought. That was certainly the only reason from what he could see.

He wondered what choice he had here. If he just challenged, she would reject and that would be it for the day. But if he didn't then there was no point in him being here.

The girl gave a slanted smile understanding Alex's predicament. He thought for a bit and nodded as he concluded.
