After the Fairy Maidens Fell to Darkness, They Captured Me to Ruthlessly 'Repay' Their Gratitude-Chapter 113 - "He Ange’s Fox Princess Transformation"
“He Ange’s Fox Princess Transformation”
Xia Ranyue was stunned.
Sure, she had suggested that He Ange play the role of her boyfriend in front of her sister, and they had planned to show off their affection to annoy her annoying Sacred Maiden sister.
But she hadn’t expected He Ange to kiss her so passionately right in front of the Fox Clan’s Sacred Maiden.
Despite her rebellious nature, Xia Ranyue was quite conservative at heart.
Kissing a man in front of her strict sister... If this had happened in the past, Xia Ranyue wouldn’t have dared to imagine it. She would have been strung up and spanked by her sister.
But now that it had actually happened, Xia Ranyue found herself not wanting to resist at all.
He Ange’s behavior was strange. The moment he kissed her, he started breathing heavily, as if he were savoring her scent, desperately seeking something...
This made Xia Ranyue feel lightheaded, her enchanting eyes becoming hazy, and her cheeks turning red.
In all the time she had known him, even when she had kissed him, he had never shown such desire.
Being desired by her beloved... It was a strange, yet thrilling feeling, making even the most rebellious girl feel docile.
Xia Ranyue’s hands slowly wrapped around He Ange’s waist, allowing him to hold her more comfortably. She closed her eyes, letting out soft, breathy moans.
And all of this...
Was witnessed by Xia Zhiyue.
For the first time, she saw a close-up, intimate kiss between a man and a woman... And the woman was her own sister! For the Sacred Maiden, who had always kept her face covered and avoided men, this was an even more shocking sight.
Through the gap between their faces, Xia Zhiyue could clearly see the details of their lips touching, the way they pulled apart and came back together, and the delicate silver threads of saliva connecting them.
Unconsciously, Xia Zhiyue’s own breathing became rapid.
After all, Xia Ranyue was her sister. Having grown up together, seeing her sister kiss a man made Xia Zhiyue feel a strange sense of involvement...
After a moment, their kiss ended. He Ange released the girl in his arms, having used her scent to counteract the Sacred Maiden’s allure. He was now much clearer-headed.
But He Ange then realized the madness of what he had just done.
He had kissed the Sacred Maiden’s sister right in front of her?
However, the fox girl sitting on his lap merely licked her lips, looking at him with a gaze that suggested she wanted more.
This time, He Ange didn’t know how to smooth things over.
But he felt it wasn’t entirely his fault.
If anyone was to blame, it was the Sacred Maiden for being so aggressive. He Ange had been forced into kissing Xia Ranyue...
“Your Grace!”
“The outsider meeting is about to start, and many elders from the immortal sects are requesting an audience with you!”
At that awkward moment, several fox clan attendants rushed into the Cherry Spirit Hall.
The attendants were taken aback by the scene under the ancient tree. They saw the Sacred Maiden’s sister sitting on the lap of a handsome white-robed youth, both of them blushing and looking intimate.
Not only that, but even the usually aloof Sacred Maiden had a faint blush on her flawless face.
What kind of love triangle was this?
“Is there something fascinating to see?” Xia Zhiyue turned around, her hands behind her back, her cold gaze directed at the gossiping attendants.
They quickly lowered their heads, not daring to pry into the Sacred Maiden’s private matters.
Seeing this, Xia Zhiyue glanced back at He Ange, her enchanting eyes filled with anger and resentment.
“The outsider meeting, Xia Ranyue, do you want to bring your... oh no, your servant, to attend?” Xia Zhiyue almost slipped up.
Having just seen her sister kiss a man, she instinctively thought of He Ange as her brother-in-law. But on second thought, since Xia Ranyue was a nine-tailed bloodline inheritor, it wasn’t appropriate to publicly declare she had a human husband. It was better to stick to the original plan and have He Ange play the role of a servant.
“I...” Xia Ranyue looked at He Ange, and after receiving his approval, she happily agreed.
Seeing their continued intimacy, Xia Zhiyue felt a pang of jealousy. She took a deep breath, let out a frustrated sigh, and left, her nine tails trailing behind her.
As the Sacred Maiden’s figure disappeared from the Cherry Spirit Hall, a voice echoed above He Ange and Xia Ranyue.
“Mr. He, please take care of my sister during the upcoming Fox Clan meeting.”
…
The Sacred Maiden had left.
As the host and ruler of the Fox Clan, Xia Zhiyue had to meet with the visiting elders from the immortal sects and prepare for the outsider meeting.
Meanwhile, He Ange and Xia Ranyue were led by attendants to change into traditional Fox Clan attire.
To He Ange, the traditional attire resembled embroidered bathrobes, but they weren’t quite like the kimonos from his past life. The Fox Clan’s robes had distinct Huaxia elements.
However, compared to the Dragon Dynasty’s formal wear, the Fox Clan’s traditional attire was more relaxed.
It was said...
That in the past, the Fox Clan often engaged in dual cultivation with humans, so they preferred looser clothing.
Of course, this was just a folk tale.
He Ange found the attire comfortable and easy to wear.
As for Xia Ranyue, she looked more traditional and reserved in her fox robe.
At this moment, the red fox girl sat at a dressing table, while He Ange stood behind her, combing her hair and smoothing her nine tails.
In the mirror, the cherry-haired girl looked like an ancient princess...
It was the first time He Ange had seen such a dignified version of Xia Ranyue.
Usually, Xia Ranyue wore short skirts that barely covered her knees, her outfits highlighting her figure. She liked to braid her hair, giving her a lively and enchanting look.
But that didn’t mean she wasn’t beautiful now.
She just wasn’t as playful and mischievous, showcasing the natural beauty of a fox demon.
“Why did you stop combing? Don’t you know how to braid hair?” Xia Ranyue asked, noticing He Ange staring at the mirror.
But He Ange suddenly covered her mouth with his hand.
“I think you look more dignified and elegant if you don’t speak right now. When you talk, you remind me of the mischievous little fox from Shengxu Sect... The princess-like aura disappears,” he teased.
“Mm-mm-mm—”
Xia Ranyue tried to protest, but with her mouth covered, she could only make muffled sounds.
In the mirror, the girl’s cheeks puffed up, her face turning red, making her look even more like a noble fox princess.
As long as Xia Ranyue didn’t speak, her cold demeanor was almost on par with her sister, the Sacred Maiden. After all, they shared the same parents, and Xia Ranyue had the same natural beauty. She just lacked her sister’s composure and had a more lively voice.
“Ranyue, don’t move. Let me take a good look at you... Hmm, just a little more,” He Ange said, leaning down to whisper in her ear.
“Mm...”
Xia Ranyue stopped struggling, letting He Ange comb her hair, apply makeup, and draw her eyebrows.
To his surprise, He Ange was quite skilled at makeup.
He added a beauty mark below her eye, applied a light blush to her cheeks, making her look shy and cute, and finally drew a lotus flower on her forehead with a jade-green brush.
When Xia Ranyue opened her eyes again, she was stunned by her reflection.
She looked like a fox immortal descended to the mortal realm...
Her aura was almost as ethereal as her sister’s.
“From now on, you’re the Sacred Maiden’s sister. You’re not a child anymore. Sometimes, dressing elegantly and maturely can have its own charm, don’t you think?” He Ange said, pinching her cheek with satisfaction.
Seeing her reflection, Xia Ranyue decided not to ruin her beautiful makeup. She wanted to look as dignified as her sister, commanding respect and admiration from her clan.
At this moment...
She felt like the ideal version of herself.
No longer a playful girl, but a noble nine-tailed fox immortal!
“Sir He, escort this princess to the hall,” she commanded coldly.
“?”
He Ange almost thought he was hearing things.
Had that elegant, mature voice really come from Xia Ranyue?
The usually lively Xia Ranyue had managed to project such a noble and cool demeanor?
“Why are you looking at me like that? I’m a nine-tailed bloodline inheritor too. Or do you not want to serve me anymore?” she asked, her tone reverting to her usual playful self.
Instantly, He Ange felt more at ease. The mature tone had been a bit unsettling.
But for others, the mature tone would be more intimidating.
“Of course not. During the outsider meeting, if anyone speaks to you, use that mature tone,” he suggested.
“Really?” Xia Ranyue still felt unsure.
She had never tried speaking to her clan in such a commanding tone.
“Trust me. Just use that tone, and I’ll back you up. Your fox immortal aura will definitely impress everyone!”
“Oh...”
Xia Ranyue nodded thoughtfully.
Clearing her throat, she raised her hand and smiled confidently.

“Sir He? Escort this princess to the hall.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
He Ange took her hand, helping her up from the dressing table.
Xia Ranyue clung to his arm, looking up at him as if he were her future husband, her eyes filled with joy and anticipation.
“He Ange...”
As they walked toward the meeting hall, Xia Ranyue murmured softly.
He Ange turned to her.
“What is it?”
“Nothing... I just think you look like a prince from my dreams tonight.”
