Twin Jewels of the Mystic Sect: Sword Bones and a Fox’s Heart

A secret lies beneath the snow that has never melted in Kunlun Ruins: Shen Qingci, a good-for-nothing disciple cast out by his sect, has half a fox demon’s core sealed inside him. He thought he would have to scrape by in the mortal world for the rest of his life, but during an exorcism mission, he crossed paths with Xie Linyuan, the first seat of the Lingxiao Sect, arriving on his flying sword.

Xie Linyuan was a legend in the cultivation world, with the thunder of the Ninth Heaven hidden in his sword case and brows colder than Kunlun’s icy peaks. But when he held his sword to Shen Qingci’s throat, he saw foxfire rising in the other man’s eyes, just like the nine-tailed fox who had given up his soul three hundred years ago to protect him.
