After breakfast, Mulan and Qingqiu Zili headed straight for the Blue Fox Hall.
According to Qingqiu Zili, Mulan should've been under Azurefox Moyue's care.
But Mulan had already taken human form, so she naturally didn't need that kind of close care. She could eat, bathe, and entertain herself on her own.
Only blue foxes who couldn't take care of themselves and hadn't transformed yet were managed by Azurefox Moyue.
By rights, Mulan should've also had a six-tailed black fox as an attendant, but Qingqiu Zili had her own idea.
She wanted Mulan to live with her instead, and be looked after together by Moling Qingqiu.
After all, they were comrades on the same side. If they lived apart, it'd be way too inconvenient.
What they were planning to do was raise the banner of rebellion against the fox clan elders.
In the blink of an eye, Mulan and Qingqiu Zili had already arrived at the Blue Fox Hall.
To be honest, Mulan quite liked this place.
After living here for a few days, she didn't dislike it at all. Azurefox Moyue's way of caring for blue foxes was practically flawless. Once you got used to it, you couldn't pull yourself away.
This kind of life was way too decadent.
Ordinary blue foxes were lively and hyper by nature, so they weren't affected that much. They could turn around and go right back to bouncing around and having fun.
But Mulan was originally a cultivator at the Greater Fulfillment of Sloth Realm. With her lazy disposition, if you added this level of pampering on top, she'd really be raised into a useless fox.
At that moment, the figure of a black fox woman appeared before Mulan and Qingqiu Zili. It was Azurefox Moyue, the person in charge of the Blue Fox Hall.
Mulan liked this gentle big-sister type quite a lot. Even now, she still hadn't forgotten those skilled fox-petting techniques of hers.
It was probably similar to how a mother cared for a child, giving Mulan a feeling she had never experienced before.
At this moment, Azurefox Moyue's gaze fell on the petite figure beside Qingqiu Zili. A flash of surprise passed through her eyes, as if she had recognized who she was.
"Wuyue?"
A blue fox, three tails, and such a petite build, while following Qingqiu Zili around too. Without a doubt, this was Azurefox Wuyue, who had just left the Blue Fox Hall yesterday.
Who would've thought that after staying here for several days, she still hadn't been willing to take human form, yet after spending one night at Qingqiu Zili's place, she'd let her guard down.
Was it really easier to communicate with someone of the same blue fox kind?
Mulan politely bowed to Azurefox Moyue.
"Mm, hello. Thank you for taking care of me these past few days."
Mulan had no intention of using her real name while moving around the Azure Fox Realm.
Azurefox Wuyue it was. If she left this place in the future, it'd lighten her mental burden a little too. At least no one would know her real name, and once she was outside, she could mess around however she wanted.
Azurefox Moyue smiled, and a teasing glint rose in the depths of her eyes.
"So you've finally decided to appear before us in human form?"
"Mm... yeah."
The tail behind Mulan drooped down, and the tip lightly poked at the ground, as if she was a little embarrassed.
After all, she'd completely lazed around in fox form while staying with Azurefox Moyue, then turned human on the very first day after leaving.
It really did feel like she wasn't giving her any face at all.
Azurefox Moyue stepped forward and began stroking Mulan's fur.
"It's alright. I'm happy you've let your guard down. This is your home. From now on, you can do whatever you want. No one will blame you."
"Thank you."
Mulan really enjoyed Azurefox Moyue's petting. Under those wonderfully skilled hands, her fluffy fox ears gradually flattened into airplane ears.
The woman's jade-like hand was small, yet even more delicate and gentle. Her way of patting Mulan's head was filled with deep affection, making Mulan feel a slight sense of attachment.
She hadn't experienced much care from elders before, and yet this somehow gave her that exact sense of familiarity.
No, wait.
Azurefox Moyue looked like a typical young maiden. Calling her an elder felt a little off.
But then again, who knew how many years were hidden beneath that youthful appearance?
Honestly, immortals who could stay forever young were way too unfair.
Who could treat a young, beautiful girl with that appearance like an elder?
She just looked like a peer around her age, only with "a tiny bit" more life experience.
At that moment, Qingqiu Zili jumped over and separated the two of them. Her tail swished back and forth in displeasure, like something she liked had been snatched away.
"Mm! That's enough, enough! Wuyue is this princess's little sister. You can't pet her for too long!"
Azurefox Moyue, who had been pushed aside by Qingqiu Zili, found it a little amusing.
"Mmm~ How strange. I've taken care of Eryue and the others for so long, and they've never gotten mad. So why is Her Highness Princess Wuyue angry just because I gave Wuyue a few simple pats?"
Hearing that teasing, Qingqiu Zili couldn't help blushing. Her big tail thumped the ground in annoyance.
How was she supposed to know where this weird possessiveness had come from?
"Anyway, no means no. From now on, Wuyue will be taken care of by this princess. We only came here to inform you."
Azurefox Moyue didn't object.
"Shouldn't this need the elders' approval?"
Qingqiu Zili widened her eyes and patted her chest with her hand to emphasize her status and authority. Even the fur on her tail puffed up.
"It! Does! Not! Need! It! At! All! This princess can decide this herself!"
"Mmm~ Alright then."
Azurefox Moyue chose to indulge Qingqiu Zili.
The princess's willfulness was also thanks to the fox clan elders. Even if they found out about this, they probably wouldn't object.
Act first and report later was one of Qingqiu Zili's greatest privileges.
"But, Your Highness, Wuyue has lived here for several days now. Eryue and the others are completely smitten with her. Just from not having Wuyue around for one night yesterday, they couldn't sleep well at all. If you take Wuyue away like this, they'll probably be very sad."
"What do you mean? It's not like she won't come visit them here. Even if she's a cute little sister, she still can't monopolize Wuyue."
Qingqiu Zili still had a child's nature in her heart.
She had a strong possessiveness toward things she liked. Even if it was a cute little sister, she still didn't want to share.
As for who exactly was monopolizing whom, that was hard to say.
Azurefox Moyue let out a soft sigh. She didn't know whether Azurefox Wuyue's overwhelming charm was a good thing or a bad thing.
Even she had nearly lost her head during the process of caring for her, and now the princess had developed such intense possessiveness too.
Was this really the kind of charm a blue fox was supposed to have?
It was way too exaggerated.
If Wuyue grew up a little more, she'd probably charm every fox in the Azure Fox Realm.
Even that so-called only male blue fox would probably be nothing special by comparison.
After that, Mulan and Qingqiu Zili played around with the three little blue foxes for a while inside the Blue Fox Hall.
During that time, Qingqiu Zili discovered something deeply shocking.
Her three little sisters weren't clinging to her anymore.
Back when she used to come to the Blue Fox Hall, when had there ever been a time she didn't have three little foxes hanging off her?
But now...
Qingqiu Zili stared in Mulan's direction with a resentful look.
Eryue, Sanyue, and Siyue were each hanging from one of the blue fox loli's three tails, and they looked incredibly happy.
In the end, the noble princess had lost the dependence of her three little sisters.
"Hehe~"
Mulan smiled too, gently swaying her tails like cradles for the little foxes. She really enjoyed the feeling of being clung to by them.
Their cute, spoiled little noises were so lovable.
It was way too healing.
Qingqiu Zili finally couldn't take it anymore.
"This princess wants to play too!"
A flash of blue light swept past.
The willful three-tailed blue fox pounced over and started competing with her younger sisters for affection. It was hard to tell who was supposed to be the older sister.
The scene instantly turned into a chaotic mess.
Azurefox Moyue watched this adorable scene with a smile.
"My, my, so full of energy~"
