Seeing how familiar she seemed, Li Hao's initial discomfort dissipated. He hadn't expected the Little White Fox he once held in his arms—innocent and cute—to transform into someone so beautiful and mature.
"No wonder I couldn't find you anywhere in the Mortal World."
Li Hao smiled, then asked, "Do you want to join in seeking refuge?"
The Fox Master gently shook her head, her smile becoming more serious as she absorbed the memories of the Little White Fox, combined with her own long years of cultivation. The fusion of past and present lives formed her current fox persona.
"I came to find you for this reason as well. Do you have confidence in finding refuge? If not, I might have a hidden place that could help you."
