"How dare he! How dare he!"
Upon witnessing Master Fox's mad provocation, the Great King of the Foxes became furious, sniffing the uniquely male scent in the air, his eyes bloodshot and filled with rage.
"Wang Ya! Go!"
"Hurry up! Go take him down, I'm furious!"
Inhaling the pheromones in the air, the Great King of the Fennec Fox let out a series of furious screeches.
As the Fox King's roar echoed, the research facility, which looked like a villa at the foot of the mountain, suddenly shook.
Immediately, the sound of heavy metal objects crashing echoed throughout the facility.
A gigantic claw, layered with black scales and resembling a massive pincer, tore through the villa's front door.
In the unlit, dim research facility, through the metal door a glowing red sphere could be seen, along with a shadowy tail swaying in the darkness. A creature, with its left side swollen and covered in scales, very unbalanced, gradually walked out of the facility's broken entrance.
"Whoa? The King of Venom?"
Just descending from the hotel rooftop, Master Fox, prepared to kick the Fennec Fox straight in the face, noticed the strange sounds emanating from the villa, causing a momentary pause in his soaring silhouette.
When Ansheng finally got a clear view of the grotesque creature emerging from the villa, he was utterly shocked.
Out of the villa came a woman, with half her face covered in scales and trendy, gradient-dyed hair, her long chestnut-colored hair casually draped over her chest and back, covering areas only a bikini could conceal.
Her left side, however, bore a giant black pincer that shimmered with a cold light, and she trailed a scorpion's tail behind her.
Compared to her mutated left side, her right side still appeared like a normal young girl, hinting she once cared about her appearance, with three colorful earrings adorning her earlobe.
"......"
Upon seeing the creature, three-parts human, seven-parts ghost, emerge from the villa, an image of a game creature suddenly popped into Ansheng's mind, compelling him to stare fixedly at the fox king on the villa's second floor.
"You damned fox, conducting human experiments here in Chang'an!"
Landing on the ground, Ansheng refrained from advancing, instead glaring angrily at the Great King of the Fennec Fox on the balcony.
The grotesque creature before him resembled a 'Beast Warrior' Ansheng had seen before.
A foreign fox like you, daring to venture onto Master Fox's territory, doing such unspeakable things?
"What the hell does this have to do with me! It's clearly Old Wang taking his evil deeds too far and facing cosmic retribution!"
The Great King of the Fennec Fox sneered, waved the butterfly knife in his hand, and ordered, "Get him! Gut him!"
Receiving the Great King's order, Wang Ya, whose body underwent an indescribable mutation, began to move.
Her initial balance was on her human side, but after receiving the Great King's command, her mutated left side unfurled, gradually rising from the ground, her human part floating in mid-air, and her scorpion tail substituting for her right foot.
With the scorpion claws stabbing the ground, Wang Ya moved rapidly as if running on twin legs made of her tail and pincers.
Though she swayed left and right, her speed was shockingly fast, even frighteningly so.
Using her scorpion tail and pincers to support her, Wang Ya's body shot forward like an arrow from the bow, straight towards Master Fox.
"Boom—"
Wang Ya's mutated left foot stomped heavily on the ground where Master Fox stood, the steel-reinforced concrete pavement, meant for vans to travel, instantly crumbled and disintegrated into debris, half of Wang Ya's body sunk into the earth.
Yet, her attack did not stop, the mutated pincer swept at the evading Master Fox.
The pebbles, sand, and dust on the ground, under Wang Ya's sweeping attack, shot out like a salvo of buckshot, covering the field as large as tens of acres, saturating an entire region.
Countless stones flew in fan-shaped arcs, battering the land and buildings within the area until they were riddled with thousands of holes.
Ansheng, positioned at the front of this fan-shaped sector, could not escape Wang Ya's buckshot assault.
But the stones or concrete fragments, no matter what, when they struck Master Fox's tensed body, it was as if they hit an indestructible stone wall, dropping to the ground before him.
"Wang Ya....is that right?"
Master Fox crossed his arms in front of his face, two of the four fluffy big tails behind him reached down to firmly protect the little fox, while the other two intersected at his waist, shielding his chest and abdomen.
Lowering his arms, Master Fox gazed directly at the shape above the shattered and furrowed earth, uttering a single phrase, asking in a deep voice.
Hearing Master Fox call her name, Wang Ya's scarlet eyes flashed with a brief moment of confusion and bewilderment, as if her mind had short-circuited.
However, the confusion only lingered for a fleeting instant before turning to ferocity, propelling her straight from the pit, raising her giant scorpion pincer to smash down toward Master Fox's head.
"Boom—"
Master Fox, stable on the ground, with his four tails extended behind him supporting on the ground, raised his claws and spread his five padded fingers, halting Wang Ya's full-force body slam.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle—"
The terrifying force from the scorpion's pincers transmitted into Master Fox's body, fracturing the ground beneath his feet with numerous fine cracks and causing even the originally straight path to shift.
Yet Master Fox did not loosen his grip, his claws and the pincers clashing, emitting a metallic clanging.
"Your mom's calling you home for dinner."
Master Fox spoke, gripping Wang Ya's mutated pincered arm and slamming it toward the ground.
"Boom—"
Subjected to Master Fox's shoulder throw, Wang Ya's form turned into an afterimage, swiftly and forcibly impacted against the ground.
The already tortured road shattered instantly in all directions from Wang Ya's side.
But Master Fox's assault didn't cease.
Clutching Wang Ya's giant pincer with his claws, he lifted her into the air with a backhand, pausing momentarily before forcefully slamming her onto the concrete ground.
Again and again, the booming never ceased, until there was no solid object left around, the concrete playground meant for fox climbing play had turned to dust, the large trees around severed into fragments of wooden fibers, leaving no stable ground, Master Fox finally stepped forward, twisting his waist, using Wang Ya as a projection, hurling her heavily into the mountains.
"Boom—"
Wang Ya's mutant body, due to a shift in balance, continued spinning through the air during her flight, her figure collided heavily into the rocky outcrop among the mountains, shattering the rocks, yet not diminishing the violent throw from Master Fox, causing Wang Ya to roll upwards along the trail, plowing into the ground.
"I'll come back to find you later! Stay here, wait for my return!"
After flinging Wang Ya away, Master Fox shifted his gaze to the villa, where the Great King of the Fennec Fox, with the butterfly knife in hand, had fallen onto the floor in shock.
Master Fox raised a finger, the sharpness at its tip seemed to bridge the far distance, directly pointing at the Fennec Fox's nose.
"Gulp...."
The Fennec Fox swallowed, nodding stiffly.
Master Fox no longer paid it any attention, instead leaping towards the rear hillside of the breeding grounds.
In truth, from beginning to end, Ansheng had never heard the Fennec Fox call out Wang Ya's name.
But the reason he knew the creature's name in front of him was because after Wang Ya emerged, a new wish appeared in Ansheng's mind's wish list.
[Daughter, come back! Don't go! ——Standing by the window of the research facility, Qiao Yu watched her daughter leave, reaching out as if to call her back, but knowing her call was futile. Only the Great King of the Foxes could stop Wang Ya from recognizing kin, but that was only during normal times. Once she lost control, no one could restrain her. Qiao Yu worried her daughter would be exposed to the secular world and never return.]
[Wish fulfilled: Daughter returns home]
This was a new wish, made by the mother of that Venom King.
Ansheng didn't know why Wang Ya, evidently more powerful than the Fennec Fox, would normally obey its orders.
But now Wang Ya was in combat mode.
Simply put, in the whole affair, the Fennec Fox's role was just to open the door and unleash the hounds.
But who the hound bites, that's uncertain.
This was something beyond the Fennec Fox's control.
To discuss it with him would be a waste of words.
