Like Yun Shang, the fox clan also has a special demonic nature, that is, they have a strong charm to other races, which makes countless strong people crazy for them.
In the ancient times when the strong preyed on the weak and strength was respected, an innocent man would be guilty unless he possessed a jade. The fox demon clan was hunted by almost everyone in the world and captured to be trained as sex slaves.
At that time, owning a sex slave from the fox clan was a symbol of strength.
The more you have, the stronger you are.
Gradually, the fox demon clan was unwilling to reproduce, and the population gradually became sparse, almost to the point of extinction. In the end, only the most powerful king was left in the clan, known as the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox.
However, the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox did not survive entirely due to her strength. Instead, she devoted herself to Yun Shang, the empress of the East Continent at that time, and was able to gain a foothold with Yun Shang's protection.
Although this means entering Yunchang's harem, being a concubine is better than being a sex slave.
When Pei Xuan first read this piece of history, he did not feel any sympathy for the tragic fate of the fox clan, but instead immediately developed a desire for the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox.
Now, when he suddenly learned that it was the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox that was awakened by the fluctuation of spiritual energy, Pei Xuan's heart was immediately filled with excitement. He wished he could catch this legendary beauty right away and experience her magical charm.
"Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox?" Feng Yuwu was shocked after hearing Kong Du's analysis. "I thought she was dead a long time ago."
"Historical records do record the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox's death, but this is only one of many versions," Kong Du said slowly. "Another record says that when the Heavenly Pillar collapsed and the spiritual energy dissipated, Her Majesty the Flower King was no longer able to protect the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, so she fled to the wild lands of the south and sealed herself away. Now it seems that this record is closer to the truth."
"I see. Master Abbot is truly knowledgeable and experienced. I am ashamed to be inferior to him." Feng Yuwu nodded and looked around. "It seems this is the place where the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox was sealed away in the past."
Pei Xuan looked around and saw that there was nothing special here except a small stream flowing there.
He glanced at the rocks by the stream and suddenly saw a flash of white light.
Pei Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and immediately ran over. He squatted down and searched among the rocks. Sure enough, he found another long white hair.
"Haha, I found the same clue." Pei Xuan stood up and showed the white fur in his hand, "It seems that I am also qualified to get my hands on the ownership of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox."
"Ownership?" Kong Du's thin brows knitted slightly. "I wonder what Master Pei means by this?"
"Do I even need to say this out loud?" Pei Xuan smiled. "Aren't the various forces gathering in this smoky forest just to find the awakened great demon and bring it into our camp? Now that we know that the one who has awakened is the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, a peerless beauty that can charm everyone, naturally everyone wants to take it for themselves. But now that the world is united, it's important to convince people with reason. The abbot asked us to look at the body hair in our hands. Isn't he trying to say that your Zenyin Temple has found a clue, so the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox should belong to Zenyin Temple? But now that I have the same clue, I am naturally qualified to make an offer."
"Amitabha..." Kong Du muttered a Buddhist mantra after hearing Pei Xuan's words. Before he could refute, a sarcastic and crisp female voice came from the white mist: "If that's the case, then am I also qualified to bid?"
Before he finished speaking, a bright and beautiful woman in tight clothes walked out from the white mist, followed closely by a tall man in golden robe and golden armor.
Pei Xuan recognized them at a glance. They were the Saintess Shen Yinglan of the Moyun Sect and her traveling companion, the golden-armored guardian, whom he had met at the car rental company before.
Shen Yinglan took out a similar long, thin white hair from his sleeve and showed it to everyone.
"Amitabha..." Kong Du finally spoke again, picking up the words he had been interrupted. "Master Pei, Your Excellency the Saint, you have misunderstood. This old monk and Chanyin Temple only wish to uphold the righteous path, with absolutely no selfish motives. As for Master Pei's allusion to 'enchanting sentient beings,' that is sheer fabrication. Chanyin Temple is full of monastics, and everyone in it is taught that the four elements are empty. From this old monk down, no one in this temple is interested in anything related to beauty."
What's wrong with people who have left home? Pei Xuan thought secretly, there are several bitches who have left home in his harem. When they are in heat, aren't they particularly lewd?
"Master Abbot's Buddhist knowledge is profound, and we are ashamed to be inferior to him." Shen Yinglan chuckled. "Since Zenyin Temple has no intention of competing for the ownership of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, my only opponent is this Mr. Pei. I wonder what price you are willing to offer to compete with me?"
"I..." Before Pei Xuan could answer, Kong Du interrupted him and said in a deep voice:
"This benefactor, the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, has endured suffering for a long time, a cause that is both infuriating to both humans and gods, and is now clear to the world. Fortunately, the world is unified today, and the laws of the land are in place. What happened in the past must not be repeated today. You must respect the wishes of the benefactor, the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, and refrain from forcible detention."
Kong Du's words were so heavy that everyone present was speechless for a moment.
But then, Kong Du continued, "That being said, the people of the world will still fight to the death for the last member of the demon fox clan. To protect the safety of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox donor, I will find her and invite her to live temporarily in the Bi Temple, so as to put an end to the world's covetousness."
It turns out that after all this talk, they still want to snatch it, but they just added a high-sounding excuse. Since Zenyin Temple is going to play this way, Pei Xuan will naturally accompany them to the end:
"Master Abbot, you are so compassionate. I feel deeply ashamed. However, the current protector of the East Continent is the Xiaoliang Imperial Family of Chang'an, and His Majesty the Flower King is now under their protection. As His Majesty's former favorite concubine, the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox should naturally travel to Chang'an to reunite with His Majesty and accept the protection of the Xiaoliang Imperial Family."
"Hmph, that sounds nice." Shen Yinglan showed a look of disdain. "It's called protection, but in reality, how is it any different from imprisonment? Besides, the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox was forced to submit to the Flower King for protection. Now that the Flower King himself is in danger, wouldn't the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox be walking into a trap if she went there? Our Moyun Sect is a good place for the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox. She can cover her whole body like Uncle Jinjia, hiding that so-called enchanting body, and come to Moyun Sect to be an elder or a protector. It's up to her to choose."
Without even seeing one of the Nine-tailed Fox's tails, everyone argued with each other for a long time, but in the end they couldn't come to any mutually acceptable conclusion.
