"My dear, it seems my guess was right,"
the Nine-tailed Fox laughed. "Last night's cultivation felt better for both of us than the previous times, it must have been because you consumed the Snake Gallbladder and Immortal Dew. It appears that as long as your cultivation improves a bit more, that barrier lurking between us will disappear."
"I hope so." Jiang Xiaobai still hadn't figured out why there was that invisible obstacle between them.
The Nine-tailed Fox said, "My dear, having cultivated all through the night, we should rest for a while."
Jiang Xiaobai said, "Do you have another bed here? We should sleep separately."
The Nine-tailed Fox replied, "There is only one jade bed in the Cave Mansion. My dear, you can only sleep with me."
With that, the Nine-tailed Fox wrapped her arms around Jiang Xiaobai's neck and lay down with him. Jiang Xiaobai lay there like a statue, not moving at all, letting the Nine-tailed Fox hold him.
