Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

Chapter 657 – Moon Aiko’s Antics

The next day, both of them woke up refreshed.

"Another round?" Moon Aiko's eyes shined.

"Ugh..." Mei groaned in pain, since her body ached. She didn't think that Moon Aiko would be so...

"Can we not...?" Mei was the one who was pleading this time.

"Sure." Moon Aiko shrugged like it was not a big deal, but she would still tease Mei here and there.

"An emergency meeting is necessary...' Mei didn't want to admit it, but if things went this way, her body would break.

Moon Aiko yawned gently as she stretched her body. Neither of them were clothed, so both of them observed each other.

"What is next?" Moon Aiko blinked at Mei. She wanted to say 'how about another round', but held herself back.

"We are going to the Treasure Pavilion to see if there is anything we can take with us." Mei felt danger, so she quickly replied.

"Oh, can I come too?" Moon Aiko was happily humming.

"Sure." Mei didn't mind Aiko coming too, since she knew that her grubby hands would be able to pick up more stuff than the others.

Mei stretched her aching body, before picking a very simple high-waisted Ruqun. The belt was slightly torn because it was used to tie up Aiko, but that was fine for now. She would later visit the Clothier for more clothes.

For now, they were of white and light-blue colour, the belt was of darker colour since sometimes Mei had issues tying it tighter. It was more of a dress style, but Mei altered it so that nobody would be able to peek under her overly long skirt.

The belt was also tied under her bosom, creating a good support for the now bigger chest. She tied her hair into a clumsy bun, since she didn't want to deal with making her hair good.

Moon Aiko took out things for Sun Aiko and wore them. Her chest was tight, but it was better than Witch Aiko's increasingly upsetting bosom.

"Those clothes are quite small..." Mei pursed her lips when she looked over.

They both had a variation of Ruqun, and most female Cultivators would also have it, it's just that Foxes had holes in certain places, for movement of tails while also concealing others.

"Can't be helped." Moon Aiko's clothes were ruined, so she would have to wait for later.

Then, Moon Aiko thought about the solution and pulled small clothing out of her Storage Ring.

"Hm?" Mei tilted her head when Aiko suddenly became small.

"Better." The small version Aikos still had differences, but it was not as big as normal-sized Aikos, so she wouldn't have any issues with clothes of the small size.

"You became tiny?" Mei tilted her head as she tried to measure Aiko's height.

"I will bite you." Moon Aiko pouted, it was not like she wanted to stay in this form, but it was better since she was not as restrained by clothing.

She was also able to steal more things, since she would be able to fit into smaller crevices, which was a win-win situation.

Moon Aiko angrily snipped her ears as her tails 'whipped' Mei's.

"Okay, okay." Mei giggled. The small Aiko reminded her about the first time they came to this place, and while it was messy and the tests troubling, it was still a wonderfully spent time.

"You are thinking about something unrelated, huh?" Moon Aiko pouted again. "Let's go, let's go! It's time to take stuff!" The small Aiko pointed righteously towards the direction of the Treasure Pavilion.

Mei pursed her lips and followed Aiko. They both skipped the lake part, since the romance was done and Aiko cared more about Treasures at this moment, since Mei didn't want to do anything else.

...

The Treasure Pavilion was huge as always and the Runes were as impressive as one could create them.

They slowly moved inside, since this place was quite independent from the usual strives within the Fox Village.

That's also why nobody bothered taking anything from here, since everyone knew that the Runes would make it impossible.

"How are things going?" Mei asked a nearby Fox who oversaw the work.

"Jade Fox." The Fox bowed lightly and explained. "We have broken the first seal, but it will take time to sort the other nine seals." They kept talking, while Aiko in the background tapped the ground.

"How about the Rune guy?" Mei talked about Chen Shi.

"He is still dealing with the courtyards and asked us to deal with this." The Fox shook her head. She looked at the small Fox following Mei, pulling something out of her tails.

'Metal stick...?' The Fox was confused, since she didn't know that this was called a crowbar in human cities.

Moon Aiko took many tools from both Foxes and Humans, so she had quite the repertoire of tools that she could use.

"How is the overall progress?" Mei didn't know what was happening behind her, and that Aiko was currently using the crowbar to lift one of the seriously heavy stone tiles.

"Uh..." The Fox was startled, but still tried to remain professional. "Honestly, things are not looking good, each step the seals get more complex, and dangerous for us to remove, so it would be better to wait for help." She shook her head, before flinching, since it seemed like the small Fox that followed Mei was gulping those tiles like candies.

"I will tell him to do that later." Mei sighed. Completely unaware that Aiko was currently trying to take the pillars with her, but since they supported the roof, she was unable to do that.

"How about taking something now before he appears?" Mei asked the Fox.

"That is..." The Fox was staring, as that small Fox climbed those pillars and started to take out those roof tiles like they were nothing. "We have already told some to prepare a storage room so that it would rain on those things, and we are in the process of moving things with our Storage Pouches."

Mei was concerned about the Fox's expression, but she ignored it for the time being. "What about the Muscle Foxes that are trying to help?"

"..." The Fox was as the roof was slowly vanishing in front of her. What was the most bizarre thing was that the Fox was not using any Storage Pouches or Rings! 'Special Treasure?' She thought before looking at the Jade Fox.

Mei was confused why the Fox was staring blankly towards the roof so she turned around.

The stone tiles behind her were missing...?

The stone tiles behind her were missing!

She looked up, only to see Aiko taking one roof tile after another, stripping this place down!

"Dammit, Aiko!" Mei didn't think that Aiko's grubby hands would get so bad that she would take the whole building with her!

"What?" Moon Aiko looked down, but she didn't forget to keep moving her hands, taking more and more tiles with her.

"Chief!" One startled Fox came running back.

"What is it?" The Oversee Fox looked at him.

"Another seal was undone!" The startled Fox happily smiled.

"What?" Both Mei and the Oversee Fox looked at him with surprise.

"We don't know what happened, but the seals suddenly weakened, making them easier to remove!" The startled Fox happily smiled before running back. "I will have to pick up the pace, so the others don't get hurt!"

The Oversee Fox and Mei stared blankly.

Both of them slowly turned around to see 'Aiko' taking more and more of the roof off this building.

"I didn't think you could remove seals by just taking down the whole building..." The Oversee Fox was impressed by this, and she would definitely do this in the future!

"Don't try to imitate her." Mei felt that if the Foxes copied Aiko this whole place would become unhinged!

"Yes, ma'am." The Oversee Fox felt danger, so she readily agreed.

"And you..." Mei sighed. She felt a headache coming her way, but this was Aiko she was talking about.

"What is it?" At this point Moon Aiko was holding a shovel and shovelled those pieces into her tails.

This place was nice and shiny and since it was easy to take apart she thought that the Demonic Foxes inside could use it as their home!

"..." Mei groaned unhappily. "Just keep doing what you are doing..." She didn't want to admit it, but Aiko's plan was quite ingenious.

Most buildings would be hard to take apart as, if you were just slightly wrong, the whole place would either crumble or endanger you.

However, Aiko knew about Runes a lot more than even experts would know, so taking it apart for her was like playing a puzzle game.

"..." Mei pursed her lips when she saw Aiko happily playing and made a mental memo to remind the other Foxes to not mimic what she was doing.

"With this kind of speed, we should be able to unseal this place in a few days." The Oversee Fox had sparkling eyes, clearly impressed by the small Fox ingenuity.

"Don't mimic her." Mei had to remind her, since taking apart an Inscription or Array was not that simple!

"Yes." The Oversee Fox bowed, agreeing. After all, she would have to first learn about Inscription and Arrays before mimicking her!

Mei breathed a sigh of relief, completely oblivious that Aiko recruited more people into her Insane Antics Cult.

This was a new cult that didn't just worship Vicious Jade Fox, but also tried to mimic her behaviour.

The Vicious Jade Fox was a very lucky individual, with many beauties following her willingly.

Even the now poled Harem Kings were trying to learn her ways to increase their harem naturally, since that 'technique' was a no-go.

Mei looked around and watched Aiko taking this place apart. More and more Foxes came to watch the show, some even brought snacks or sold them to others.

"..." Mei sighed in defeat. There was no way she would be able to stop those rumours from spreading since everything was enjoying themselves.

"What about this one?"

Suddenly, Mei heard a voice near Aiko, so she turned around.

"............." Realising that even Muscle Foxes joined the party, helping Aiko take the whole place apart, she almost fainted.

Mei was now much 'sturdier' than before when it came to her mentality, but this was simply too much!

"What are you doing?!" Mei shouted at them.

"We are helping take this place apart?" The Muscle Foxes replied like it was the most obvious thing, making her faint.

"Mei!" Moon Aiko caught her before she crashed onto the ground. She spat out a bed and let Mei sleep on it before returning to take things that were even bolted down!
