Then, without warning, he shot to his feet.
"LAN LAN!"
The sudden shout nearly frightened everyone out of their skins.
Rong Ye pointed dramatically toward the white bundle, his face glowing with excitement.
"Our Nine-Tailed Fox Clan has a new heir!"
The room instantly fell silent.
Every pair of eyes slowly turned toward him.
"…What?"
Rong Ye looked as though he might burst into tears from happiness at any second.
"It's a fox cub!" he declared proudly.
Without waiting for permission, he hurried over and carefully poked the fluffy white bundle.
The reaction was immediate.
A tiny paw suddenly emerged from the cocoon of fur.
Whack!
The small paw smacked directly into Rong Ye's face before instantly retreating back into its fluffy shelter.
The room became deathly quiet. Everyone was left speechless with the stunt pull by this fluff.
Meanwhile, Rong Ye stood there rubbing his nose with an aggrieved expression.
"Why did it hit me?" he complained pitifully.
