Master of Ten Thousand Foxes

The goal is to take away the little light bulb next to Expert Bai Mo!

...

In the office, Bai Mo sat in the chair, turning on the computer.

This computer is a bit old, with its casing marked by the passage of time. But its performance is okay, it doesn’t take long to start up.

The desk and chair are also very old, all with a patina.

Yet sitting here working, looking up to see the lush mountains and forests outside the window, and the pigeons flying in the sky, it’s quite pleasant.

As for Su Yaoyao, after sending him to the office, she hadn’t had time to sit down before she was called away by a pigeon worker; who knows what she’s busy with.

"Heh heh."

He brewed himself a cup of tea... his apprentice ran off to play, so he had to make the tea himself.

Just about to look at some documents after opening the computer, he suddenly pondered for a moment.

"Still... better ask."

...

"Hello, Boss Chen, the purple-headed General you wanted, I have a pair here, oh yes, come over for tea when you have time and take a look!"

"The price? The price is open to discussion, definitely won’t rip you off; you’re someone who knows the trade, knows the goods, knows the value, no one can take advantage of you, hahaha..."

In a luxurious office with exquisite decor.

The Sichun Region’s boss behind the scenes, Wang Wushan, was on the phone attracting customers.

His public identity is a dealer in birds and flowers, specifically dealing with various big bosses, dealing in valuable goods.

Laughing wide-mouthed while making calls to attract clients, he was rubbing a seed with his right hand, occasionally glancing at it.

This seed, the size of a peanut, is crystal clear, like a gemstone!

Ever since he went to the West State to seek help from the West State Boss for the Traitor’s Wine, this seed mysteriously appeared in his pocket.

"What exactly is this?"

After hanging up the phone, he raised the seed again, examining its texture in the light, like studying a piece of jade... his business scope is wide; apart from insects, he dabbles in flowers, birds, jade, cultural artifacts, antiques, he knows them all.

And unlike Master Chong, he basically doesn’t sell fakes, only real goods!

While inspecting the seed’s translucency, suddenly, the seed began to tremble, swell, and heat up!

Wang Wushan instantly sat up straight, cradling the seed in his palm!

He saw a sprout shoot out from the seed, unfold leaves, grow a stem, produce a bud, and finally, the bud even turned into a flower, a flower in the shape of a mouth.

"Boss Wang, my boss wants to trouble you with something."

Wang Wushan cracked a smile.

"First, I’m not a boss!

"Second, feel free to instruct!"

The seed was taken aback for a moment, seemingly surprised that Wang Wushan could lower his stance so much?

It spoke again.

"Help me investigate, how many pigeons with ears produced by the West Ridge Mountain Range have been exported beyond Jiuzhou?"

Wang Wushan rolled up his sleeves, grabbed his phone.

"Asking me about this kind of thing... you found the right person!"

...

In the office, Bai Mo sat by the window, watching Su Yaoyao excitedly run back, only to be called away again by another pigeon worker.

He cracked a smile, closed his eyes, and saw the summary provided by Wang Wushan on the other side.

"One sold to the... Lamp Eagle Region’s, advanced restaurant, has already been eaten..."

Bai Mo truly didn’t know how to assess this.

What are the tycoons in the Lamp Eagle Region thinking? The ears on this thing are just tufts of fur, once plucked, how is it different from an ordinary pigeon?

"There are two more, sold to the Sakura Region.

"One sold to the Beichen One-Sword Stream Beichen Clan, currently being used as a regular carrier pigeon.

"One sold to the Miyamoto Clan, taken by Miyamoto Rokuzo, currently whereabouts unknown."

Bai Mo suddenly realized.

This Miyamoto Rokuzo guy, coming to Jiuzhou, is accomplishing multiple goals with one arrow?

"And one more sold to the White Seagull Region, sent to the White Dove Knight Order, currently whereabouts unknown."

White Dove Knight Order?

Bai Mo opened his eyes, severed the connection with Wang Wushan’s side, pulled out his phone, and checked some data.

"The traditional belief of the White Seagull Region is, priests.

"The White Dove Knight Order is one of the knight orders that guard the priests?"

...

Whoosh...

The mountain wind blew head-on!

Little Hua Bei sat behind Red Treasure, the fuzz on its face blown into disarray, its big tail blown backward, but it widened its eyes, extremely joyful!

"Awo awo awo!"

It saw a bunch of pigeons behind it, following along in flight!

It saw a durian shell helmet on the back of Red Treasure’s head in front of it, and a middle cup of Wine Vessel Flower swaying in the strong wind.

"Awo awo awo!"

It became even more excited, even wanting to reach out and touch that pot of flower.

Because this medium-sized pot of Wine Vessel Flower was specially brewed by Master with extra ingredients. When the Master was making it, Xiaohua Bei was there assisting!

"Co-co-coo!"

Red Treasure, being very clever, decided to fly a bit faster and further, not returning to the base for the time being, to give its owner more opportunities and time!

It flapped its wings, breaking through the gale, and with over twenty pigeon followers, charged towards the mountains ahead!

...

Squeak...

The office door opened.

Su Yaoyao rushed in, looking flustered.

"Expert Bai Mo, can you contact the Immortal Beast?

"Can you get them to return quicker?"

Of course, Bai Mo could!

Not only could he contact his disciple, but he could also bring them back to the dream at any time.

But he still shook his head.

"What’s wrong? What happened?"

Su Yaoyao pulled out a tablet and handed it to Bai Mo.

"This is a video just shot by the researcher, of Red Treasure training with the homing pigeons in the sky.

"We originally should have had twenty-three homing pigeons with ears, but..."

Bai Mo nodded, understanding Su Yaoyao’s implication.

In the paused video frame, although blurry, it wasn’t difficult to count.

Following behind Red Treasure were the homing pigeons, arranged in four rows with six each... twenty-four in total. One didn’t belong to the Immortal Committee; unknown where it came from, but it had mixed in!

Su Yaoyao sat down in a chair nearby, looking disheartened.

"Drones have already been dispatched.

"Satellites have begun their search.

"But... the communication equipment I gave to Red Treasure also lost signal.

"It shouldn’t be anything serious, right?

"Expert Bai Mo, your Immortal Beast..."

Bai Mo remained expressionless.

Instead, he got up to pat Su Yaoyao’s arm, comforting her.

"Don’t worry, Red Treasure is an Immortal Beast of Sequence Seven, and my Immortal Beast is smart, nothing will happen to it."

...

Swish...

Red Treasure, along with more than twenty followers, danced through the mountains, skimming along the surface, flying in arcs!

On Red Treasure’s back, Xiaohua Bei, gripping the safety belt, was even more excited.

"Awoo awoo awoo! Awoo awoo awoo!"

But Red Treasure suddenly sensed something amiss!

"Co-co-coo!"

Eleven followers were missing from behind!

It rolled its little eyes, recalling in a flash that just moments ago, eleven followers flew into a nearby cave!

"Co-co-coo!"

What’s going on?

Did eleven fools fly the wrong way?

With a loop and climb, it immediately turned back, and amidst the excited cries of the fox on its back, charged headlong into the dark cave with its remaining followers!

Swish!

The cave was dark, dimly lit, like a jar with a small mouth and a large belly, surprisingly spacious inside.

At a glance, it saw, deep inside the cave, two men in suits, sitting on a picnic mat, drinking red wine, and playing with pigeons resting in their hands.

"Hahaha, after a hard trip back to Jiuzhou, I still have to drink red wine. It’s really annoying, I want Hua Diao wine!"

"Make do with it; there’s only this in the dream warehouse. Hahaha."

Without a word, Red Treasure instantly lowered one wing and turned to fly back!

Whoosh...

The wind rushed in its ears, as well as into Xiaohua Bei’s ears on its back.

Red Treasure feared all enemies that didn’t fear it!

As long as the enemy wasn’t afraid of it, it absolutely wouldn’t engage head-on!

But, it couldn’t get out!

The cave entrance was blocked by a black cloud!

"Coo?"

It wasn’t actually a real black cloud but a dense swarm of black pigeons, glaring with fierce red eyes, flashing sharp red claws, blocking the cave entrance, and flying towards Red Treasure, like a cloud, instantly surrounding Red Treasure front, back, left, and right.

"Co-co-coo!"

"Co-co-coo!"

"Co-co-coo!"

The ocean of fierce pigeons quickly engulfed Red Treasure.
