'When was the last time I bathed in my Beast Form? It was probably when I was still a cub.'
The Purple Fox had no strength. He could only close his eyes and let the Rabbit Clan female before him wash him.
'As a Healer, she's certainly responsible toward her patients...'
The Purple Fox soaked in the hot water, the exhaustion in his body gradually fading.
For him, having just escaped death, this was a rare moment of peace.
The Little Octopus stared at him for a moment. "You went somewhere strange."
It could smell other scents clinging to the fox.
The Purple Fox grunted a soft "Mm," having no intention of hiding anything. "Some smugglers appeared within Moonrise. I was taken to their realm while trying to apprehend them."
'Smugglers?'
Yu Zhizhi's hands stilled. "Was it a place of endless night?"
The Purple Fox's ears twitched. He slowly opened his eyes. "No."
He recalled, "It was a forest filled with mist, where the sun and moon shone in the sky at once."
