Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 51 The Tale of the Fox Fairy

"Senior Brother Huanglong, no need!"

Yu Ding pressed down on Huang Long's hand, which was out of his sleeve, and said with an understanding smile, "I have felt your intentions, Junior Brother."

However, I already have enough magical treasures from Senior Brother Taiyi and Junior Brother Qingxu.

As one of the poorest of the Twelve Golden Immortals, he understood Huanglong's predicament.

During this discussion, he also discovered that in addition to their basic skills, the Twelve Golden Immortals each had their own strengths in other areas.

For example, he and Guang Chengzi were skilled in swordsmanship, some were good at crafting magical artifacts, some liked to develop Taoist techniques, and some were adept at alchemy...

Only Huanglong can be described as mediocre in every way, lacking any magical treasures and unable to refine them himself.

According to a rumor that Yu Ding heard, Huang Long had previously studied the art of refining treasures out of personal interest.

At that time, Yun Zhongzi had only recently begun learning the basics.

The two then studied the sacred texts on treasure refining together and researched the art of treasure refining.

Later, Yun Zhongzi became a famous expert in refining magical artifacts.

As for Huanglong, after expending a great deal of rare and precious materials, he finally saw a cruel reality.

Refining treasures sometimes really depends on individual talent; you can't deny that compared to Yun Zhongzi.

"Is that enough? Oh dear, it seems my newly crafted powerful magic weapon will be useless this time."

Huang Long said with a regretful expression, "Well then, if you need anything next time, just ask, and I'll definitely lend it to you."

Taiyi and Qingxu glanced at Huanglong, and a sentence came to mind at the same time.

To save face and suffer the consequences!
Everyone knows that you, Huanglong, have spent hundreds of years studying treasure crafting, only to destroy every single one you attempt; and that you've been trapped in formations for half a century...

"..."

Looking at Huanglong, who was stubbornly clinging to his pride even without any magical treasures, Yu Ding's smile became slightly stiff.

Of course, Yu Ding did not refuse the kindness of Taiyi and Daode Zhenjun. With a flick of his sleeve, he gathered these magical treasures into his possession.

"Senior Brother Yu Ding is really popular..."

Shen Gongbao, who witnessed this scene from a short distance away, felt a surge of emotion and his eyes revealed a look of reverence.

The fact that he could ask his two senior brothers to lend him their magical treasures without hesitation shows what kind of trust that is!

He could feel the invisible personal charm emanating from Senior Brother Yu Ding, which made him unable to resist being impressed, getting close to him, and wanting to take out his magic treasure.

Unfortunately, he was even poorer.

Buzz!
At this moment, the black and white swords sensed the aura of the jade cauldron and suddenly trembled, transforming into two beams of light that rushed towards the jade cauldron.

"The Yin-Yang Sword?!"

The unexpected turn of events startled Taiyi, who reacted quickly and tried to stop them.

However, Taiyi's expression immediately turned strange.

He noticed that the two swords didn't exude any murderous aura; instead, they were filled with the kind of joy a child feels upon seeing their father. He wasn't sure if his analogy was accurate, but anyway, they conveyed a sense of immense happiness.

Huang Long: “???”

These two swords look at the jade cauldron as if it were their own father. What's going on?

But just as the two swords rushed towards the jade cauldron...

Suddenly, the Immortal-Slaying Sword that Yu Ding carried on his back, which was in its sheath, was drawn out an inch by itself.

Yu Ding's pupils suddenly contracted.

He felt a chill on his neck, and a snow-white sword light shot out from beside his head and slashed down at the black and white swords.

The black and white swords, naturally, did not remain silent when attacked, immediately unleashing blazing black and white light in response.

The three sword lights collided, producing a sound like metal clashing, and a powerful sword aura surged outwards in all directions.

With two clanging sounds, the black and white swords were shaken and forced back, stopping there as if they wanted to come towards the jade cauldron but were afraid of the Immortal-Slaying Sword.

Clang!
The Immortal-Slaying Sword, like a victorious rooster, slowly slid back into its sheath.

“This…” Yu Ding swallowed silently.

He felt like he was out chatting with a girl, but his wife caught him red-handed and gave him a death stare.

It seems I'll have to keep this sword in my dantian from now on, otherwise my neck will easily get a cut.

"What's going on?" Huang Long hadn't reacted yet.

Taiyi slapped his forehead and laughed, "It seems my Yin-Yang Sword is destined for Junior Brother Yuding!"

"Yin Yang Sword..."

Yu Ding's expression shifted at that moment.

Two swords, one black and one white!
The black sword has a black crescent moon at the end of its hilt, while the white sword has a small white bead at the end of its hilt, resembling a bright sun.

It must be said that these two swords are indeed extremely compatible with the Yin-Yang Sword Dao.

Huang Long's eyes lit up and he asked, "Then are we destined to be together?"

Taiyi glanced at the black and white swords.

The two swords did not react.

"It seems...not!" Taiyi shook his head.

"Not even one?" Huang Long persisted.

Taiyi glanced at Huanglong, thinking, "Why bring trouble upon yourself..." Huanglong's face darkened as he glared fiercely at the Yin-Yang Sword.

The damage isn't great, but the insult is extremely strong. How is he inferior to Yu Ding? You all treat him like your own father.

……

White clouds drift by.

With its back to the afternoon sun, a crane spreads its wings in the clouds and gracefully flies eastward.

Biyou Sacred Realm is located within the East China Sea.

Yu Ding rode on the back of a crane, with the Immortal-Slaying Sword lying horizontally on his knees, his brows slightly furrowed.

"This sword... seems to have some history."

He was somewhat curious about where Jade Cauldron Immortal had obtained this treasure that guarded his mountain, and also about the name "Slaying Immortals"...
After all, Yu Ding himself is an immortal, and the name of this sword, "Immortal Slayer," seems to be somewhat incompatible with him.

Aside from the four legendary immortal swords of his uncle, the Tongtian Sect Master—Zhu Xian, Xian Xian, Lu Xian, and Jue Xian—which possessed such astonishing killing intent, Yu Ding had never heard of anyone naming their swords in this way.

The vast and boundless land of antiquity.

Beyond the earth lies the vast expanse of the four seas.

Even with his supersonic small plane, at twice the speed of sound, it would still take him quite a while to travel from Kunlun Mountain to the East China Sea.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Ding continued to comprehend the Dao Fruit.

-

At the same time, in Heaven.

Inside a palace.

Haotian used his imperial brush to write a letter to his family on a jade slip.

The general meaning is that he expressed his longing for his wife and daughter, as well as his frustration at being unable to relinquish his position as the Heavenly Emperor.

After a long while, Haotian finished writing and looked at it with satisfaction. He blew on it, sealed the scroll, and handed it forward.

A hand, white as jade, accepted the scroll of letters.

The recipient of the letter was a woman.

She was dressed in a golden battle suit, with exquisite features, a fair and white face, and even the golden suit could not hide her stunning figure, with graceful curves and flowing hair.

She exuded a heroic and dashing aura, completely different from ordinary female immortals.

"Brother... have you finished writing?" the Valkyrie asked.

"Take it to your sister-in-law and tell her I might... not be able to come back." Haotian looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and sighed sadly.

After the Old Man of the South Pole entered the Heavenly Court, he intended to bestow upon him the title of the Longevity Emperor of the South Pole among the Four Emperors, but the Old Man of the South Pole desperately declined the appointment and only accepted the sinecure of the God of Longevity.

Isn't it just that they're worried about getting too involved with the Heavenly Court's fortune, and that if something happens to the Heavenly Court in the future, it will endanger them?

Haotian was speechless.

However, this is also true; the deeper one's entanglement with the Heavenly Court, the more devastating the calamity will be when the Heavenly Court collapses.

Look at how many rulers of the Heavenly Court have come and gone since ancient times, but which Heavenly Emperor has ever had a good end?

The Valkyrie looked at her melancholy brother and her lips twitched.

To be honest, she felt that her brother was taking his good fortune for granted. The position of the Heavenly Emperor was a position that countless powerful beings in the prehistoric world wanted to sit on but could not obtain.

When the result was given to his brother, his brother looked desperate and sad.

“Brother, since you miss your sister-in-law so much that you write her a letter every month to ease your longing, why don’t you use magic to send the letter instead of making me come over?”

The Valkyrie was speechless: "I'm also extremely busy training the heavenly soldiers, you know?"

"Yunhua, you don't understand."

Haotian sighed, "This is a matter of attitude."

This Valkyrie was his younger sister, Yunhua, who became the Heavenly Princess because of him.

Yunhua's expression shifted: "Then why not just bring my sister-in-law to the Heavenly Court?"

Upon hearing this, Haotian shuddered and said, "Forget it, the Heavenly Court is like a birdcage. Once you come here, you can't get out. It's not as free as staying at home."

"Okay, I'll go deliver the letter."

Yunhua, too lazy to listen to her brother's long-winded speech, turned around, her crimson cloak billowing, and strode out of the palace.

She rode a cloud and headed straight for the Taoist temple of her sister-in-law on Kunlun Mountain.

call out!
As she was flying, suddenly, a white rainbow streaked across the sky, forming an archway.

Behind the white rainbow, countless tiny points of light drifted across the sky and earth.

"what is that?"

Yunhua moved swiftly, flew over, and grabbed one of the white lights.

When the light faded, a scroll of bamboo slips was revealed inside!
The first three characters: *The Tale of the Fox Fairy*

Author: Beihe Jushi.

Because the entire text was written in the ancient and universal script of dragon and phoenix seal, she could recognize it.

"Ha, 'The Tale of the Fox Fairy'? It's obviously a bunch of heretical nonsense." Yunhua sneered and raised her hand to destroy it.

But after thinking about it, she stopped, thinking, "It's not too late to destroy it after I've seen what it says."

P.S.: Ahem, a mysterious handsome guy has appeared online (oops, it's really not Yu Ding).
