Bai JinXi watched with delight, seeing how Yunlan will kill the person he loves right before her eyes. Unknown to her knowledge, at the crucial moment when Yunlan's sword was aiming at Shen Wei's heart. Shen Wei closed his eyes and smirked, waiting for Yunlan to come closer as he chants out the magic that the mysterious person with the umbrella taught him. He released his snow flower petals, which enveloped Yunlan and detained him. He turned to look at Bai JinXi and declared. "No one can have Yunlan!"

The person being detained and was never under the spell grinned with amusement. Curious to know how his Xiao Wei will deal with the fox alone. "This wasn't the plan, Xiao Wei." Yunlan thought inwardly but quickly wondered how Shen Wei obtained the snow flowers magic.

"How could this be?" Bai JinXi went inside her formation, wanting to borrow some more power from the Heart Stone, but it was too late. Shen Wei shot out several arrows, blowing up her ritual formation. "Why don't we deal with this one-on-one?" Shen Wei challenged.

"You think I'm afraid of you!" Her nails extended as her nine tails protrude out. She swung her several tails, attacking Shen Wei, who could easily deflect it. He quickly shot out an arrow, injuring one of her tails, but suddenly Li Qian came striking him from behind. Yunlan thought that Shen Wei is at odd and was about to help, but Shen Wei was quick enough to dodge the attack. Knowing that they would lose, Bai JinXi threw a gas bomb and quickly escaped with Li Qian.

"You think you could escape that easily?" Shen Wei chased after them. "Don't go, it could be a trap!" Yunlan tried to stop Shen Wei, who already disappeared after the two foxes. Yunlan sighed and broke out of the magic petals to go after Shen Wei. Suddenly, a strange scent was released, luring Yunlan towards the Heart Stone. "What is this?" Yunlan's head started to spin, while the Holy Grail summoned itself and absorbed the stone.

Shen Wei chased them into the fog again. "Same old trick!" He smirked and shot out several petals in every direction. One petal injured Li Qian's hand, making her fog illusion dissipated. "Li Qian, are you okay!" The worried Bai JinXi carried Li Qian to escape, but Shen Wei quickly pressed their meridians to freeze their movements.

"Gege! Gege!" Yezun arrived with the others behind him. "Are they the fox girls?" Yezun asked, looking fiercely at the two who tried to harm his brother. "Where is Yunlan?" Da Qing looked around, not seeing Yunlan with them. They rushed back and found Yunlan unconscious and the heart stone missing.

"Release them!" Yunlan ordered Da Qing to untie them after regaining his consciousness. "Why?" Yezun banged his fist on the table. "Didi! They can't escape anyways!" Shen Wei calmed his brother down.

"Kill us if you want! But we won't surrender!" Bai JinXi growled. "Gladly!" Yezun wanted to unsheathe his sword, but Shen Wei stopped him again. "Why do you want to kill me?" Yunlan asked. Bai JinXi started laughing. "There are so many reasons I want to kill you! But one, why did you kill grandma fox?" She threw an ice dagger on the table. "This weapon was used to kill grandma fox. Is it not yours?"

Yunlan observed the weapon. "This does look like mine!" He took out one of his and compared it. "Try breaking them!" He passed Bai JinXi both weapons as she tried to break them. The one that was left on grandma fox's body broke easily, while the one belonging to Yunlan only bent, but not easily broken. "A replica?" Bai JinXi widened her eyes.

"I think someone constructed this plan and tried to blame you as they did to me, with the Werewolf Clan." Chu deduced.

"I'm sorry, Yunlan! Please help us find the murderer!" She bowed together with Li Qian. "We will get to the bottom of this!" Yunlan quickly brought them back up.

Suddenly, Yunlan touched his forehead, feeling dizzy again. "Ah Lan!" Shen Wei rushed to support Yunlan, who was about to fall. "His body temperature is rising!"

"Sister Bai! He has the scent! Could it be?" Li Qian mentioned to Bai JinXi, who quickly check the acupoints on Yunlan's wrist. "Oh no! He has been affected by the Yin-Yang poison from the Heart Stone." Bai JinXi disclosed. "What does that mean?" Guo asked, seeing everybody seemed to know from their surprised looks. "It means he needs to consummate," Chu whispered in Guo's ear, who is now blushing.

"That's easy! Sister Bai is here!" Li Qian pushed Bai JinXi towards Yunlan. "Who needs her when my Gege is here!" Yezun also pushed Shen Wei into Yunlan's arm. Both gritted their teeth at each other. Shen Wei pulled Yezun back. "Is there another way?" Shen Wei asked. Bai JinXi nodded her head. "There's one way!"

Bai JinXi finally finished setting up a formation. "Luckily, the poison is not lethal! He will need to stay put until the poison wears off." She instructed. "Xiao Wei!" Yunlan unwillingly let go of Shen Wei's hands. She then leads them out to the village, leaving Yunlan to succumb alone in the fox den. Before they left, Yezun noticed the smirk on Li Qian's face, knowing that she is stirring up a plan.

************************************************************

Night came when everybody was resting. "I don't think this is a good idea!" whispered Da Qing, who is carrying the unconscious Shen Wei on his shoulder. "Shush!" Yezun glared at him as he blew a smoke tube into Bai JinXi's room. They snuck into her room and replaced Shen Wei on her bed. Then carried the unconscious Bai JinXi away.

Moments later, Li Qian came and also blew smoke into Bai JinXi's room. She snuck inside the darkroom and lifted Shen Wei, who was wrapped in a thick blanket, thinking it was Bai JinXi and carried him off to the fox den. "Sorry! Sister Bai, I'm doing this for you!" As she threw the person in the blanket onto the bed inside the formation.

Yezun and Da Qing actually hid in the corner, watching Li Qian's every move. Yezun smirked while Da Qing sweats. "Let's go!" He pulled Da Qing back to the rest house.

Yunlan, who was trying not to succumb to the poison, suddenly heard a thud landing on the bed. "What is that?" He unwrapped the blanket, and a beautiful sight made his eyes twinkled with excitement running through his body. "Xiao Wei!" Yunlan gently caressed that smooth skin and leaned down to inhale Shen Wei's alluring sweet scent. "No, no, no!" Yunlan quickly moved away, fighting internally with his lust.

In a minute, Shen Wei stirred, seeing his robes loosened and someone is licking his neck and collarbones. "Ah...Lan!" Shen Wei gave a feeble moan when Yunlan nibbled on his earlobes, and touching his exposed chest and going downward. "Xiao Wei, let me have you!" Yunlan could no longer restrain his desires. He started devouring Shen Wei's lips as his hand went to loosen his waistband.
