Food System in Cultivation World-Chapter 492 - 453: Nighttime Encounter, The Fox’s Gratitude (Part 2)
The three fox tails behind Hu Xi lightly swayed, then swiftly withdrew into his robe like shadows.
His face immediately broke into a smile, the sharp corners of his mouth curling upward.
Oh, this appearance now had a three-point fox-like demeanor.
Hu Xi seemed to be aware and hurriedly reached out to press the sides of his mouth, forcibly adjusting his smile back to a "human" look.
Then he said, "Mr. Chen, look, I now have three tails."
While speaking, he couldn’t hide a bit of his pride.
It was at this moment that Chen Xu finally slightly lowered his guard.
A fox demon who secretly felt proud because of three tails might actually be sincere in wanting to repay a favor.
But Chen Xu still just floated lightly above the water and first said, "Congratulations, Mr. Hu, on breaking through in cultivation and advancing further on your path."
Then he added, "But repaying the favor is really unnecessary... "
Before he could finish, the fox shook his head repeatedly and said:
"No, no, it must be done.
Mr. Chen, you may not know? Since our last meeting, I often recall our discussions of the Dao, from which I have gained much understanding about the nature of being human.
You once said, a secret letter could bring down a nation.
However, the true destroyer of nations is not a letter that went undelivered.
It’s the decay of the Imperial Dynasty, the incompetence of officials, and the greed of humanity.
I pondered further, what exactly is human nature?
Greed is one aspect, but it cannot merely be greed.
Like Miss Lin from Jichuan County, at the brink of death, she begged me to spare her family, to protect them; that was her greed.
But she also once spoke up to save me; she was greedy, yet she was also kind.
Thinking about it, to be a true human is to possess a side of benevolence.
To know grace and reciprocate, only then can the Dao heart be clear.
Otherwise, even if one becomes human, they will be trapped by the evil in human nature, unable to be freed.
I, too, am greedy, but I can’t be purely greedy.
I’ve never forgotten Mr. Chen’s favor in discussing the Dao; I’ve even waited for Mr. Chen to burn the fox fur to summon me.
But I waited a long time, and the fox fur remained still.
And now great events are unfolding in the world; if I continue to wait in vain, I fear I will miss crucial opportunities.
It’s better to take proactive action."

Otherwise, even if you become human, you will still be troubled by the evils of human nature, unable to find liberation.
In fact, I also have greed, but I cannot afford to be blindly greedy.
The kindness of Mr. Chen’s lecture that day I have never forgotten, and I even waited for Mr. Chen to burn the fox fur to seek my help.
But I waited for a long time, and yet the fox fur didn’t move at all.
And now that great events are unfolding in the world, if I continue to wait idly, I fear I will miss the opportunity.
