Underground cave.
The red lava was flowing slowly, giving off a scorching heatwave.
On a parcel of land in the middle of the lava ocean, the little fox stood on both hind legs and placed its tiny paws before its chest. Gazing at the corpse of the demon fox in front of it, a lost, hazy look could be seen in its big, bright eyes.
She had been living in fear for the past dozens of years.
The Fire Blocking Basket that looked like a black pot beside her was the final treasure left for her by her mother.
The little fox hid in the Fire Blocking Basket everyday, as if that little space was the only place that could make her feel safer.
However, in reality, the little fox also knew that it was extremely easy for that gigantic crocodile to kill her!
She had never thought about escaping from the claws of that crocodile one day, or even taking revenge for her mother.
Everything was all thanks to that demure scholar.
