Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Although it has some shortcomings, it is not something that ordinary people can contend with. At the very least, it is not enough for a quasi-emperor level. Only a physique at the Great Completion level can barely contend with it.

Of course, some extremely monstrous quasi-emperor level experts, such as the Eternal Emperor, are also able to contend with emperor level experts even at the ninth level of the quasi-emperor realm.

However, such beings are extremely rare, and there are only a handful in the entire Nine Netherworld.

"There will be system rewards next, I don't know what they are, but they shouldn't be too bad."

Li Qiye considered the relative importance of the plot. The Fox Demon Empress's storyline might be more important, affecting the later plot. However, in terms of the scope of the plot, the following plot would definitely not be bad, and the rewards would definitely not be low. However, Li Qiye would not participate in the following plot and would leave this stage to Li Yueyao and Wei Ling Shuang.

The matter of the Divine Stone Pavilion has a significant impact, especially on the situation in the Nine Netherworld.

The tenth prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Vermilion Bird Saintess, and the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.

Key figures from these major forces were involved, especially the Vermilion Bird Saintess, who inexplicably suppressed a girl from the Nine-Tailed Fox clan because of a divine stone.

This kind of thing wouldn't have been a big deal in the past; basically, nobody cared. This kind of thing happened frequently and was considered perfectly normal.

With Li Qiye present, and considering what the Vermilion Bird Saintess said, things are not quite normal.

Among the Vermilion Bird God Clan.

Do you know what you just did?

The patriarch of the Vermilion Bird Clan glared angrily at the Vermilion Bird Saintess, wishing he could slap her across the face.

This incident caused great dissatisfaction among the Nine-Tailed Fox clan, almost causing their plans to fall through. Originally, the Nine-Tailed Fox clan's appeal for an alliance with the ancient royal family was so strong that it could almost change Hu Qianqiu's mind.

However, due to the actions of the Vermilion Bird Saintess, coupled with the deliberate spread of rumors by some people, it caused a sensation throughout the entire Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.

"Please punish me, Father."

The Vermilion Bird Saintess knew the seriousness of the matter, so she immediately bowed her head and admitted her mistake.

"Hey……"

The Vermilion Bird Clan Chief stopped sighing and said in one breath, "This matter is very likely a deliberate scheme by the Great Zhou Dynasty, possibly to force the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan into submission."

"From now on, you should restrain your personality and not be as spoiled as before. Especially when you encounter people from the Great Zhou Dynasty, stay as far away as possible. As long as the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan agrees, even if they are dissatisfied at that time, they will be helpless."

After all, she was his daughter, and he still had some feelings for her. Moreover, Zhuque's attitude was relatively good, so he naturally didn't continue to blame her.

I just gave them a few words of advice, telling them to be more careful in the future and not fall into other people's traps.

“Father, I know this matter has a great impact. It could very well cause the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan to change their minds, and they might even directly contact the Great Zhou Dynasty and join it.”

"Personally, I think that since things have come to this point, it would be better to force the other party to make a choice."

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Vermilion Bird Saintess. The situation was such that there was no going back; the current state of affairs could no longer be maintained.

"There are countless people secretly dissatisfied. Although your matter has had a significant impact, the alliance has indeed decided to give the surrounding core group some time. If they do not make a choice soon, they will be completely exiled."

"The patriarch of the Vermilion Bird Clan said in a deep voice."

What else is there to say at this moment?
But now, six years have passed, and the Nine-Tailed Fox is still dealing with them, without a definite answer.

This greatly displeased the Ancient Emperor Alliance, including the Vermilion Bird Clan. Some of Zhang Heng's races even planned to attack the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, forcibly forcing them to join. However, Jing Donglai rejected this decision, believing it would only benefit the human race and potentially push the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan towards the human race.

Almost simultaneously, Hu Yueyue contacted Hu Qianqiu, who gave a brief account of what had happened and said, "The fact that the Vermilion Bird Saintess could say such things means that the ancient royal family has already heard the news and intends to take action against us. After that, we will definitely not be able to continue to negotiate."

"Moreover, given the Vermilion Bird Clan's modus operandi and these events, Xing is definitely extremely dissatisfied with us. If we join them, our status will certainly not be as high as those ancient royal families."

"As we expected, they will likely become their cannon fodder, since compared to other ancient royal families, our Nine-Tailed Fox Clan has a much weaker foundation."

"If the other party targets us, there's nothing we can do. Rather than that, we might as well go directly to the Great Zhou Dynasty to discuss the possibility of joining them. Moreover, the Great Zhou Dynasty is much better than these ancient royal families, both in terms of its foundation and the potential we can reach in the future. Of course, I also know that the place you borrow from will completely break with those ancient royal families, or become their cannon fodder just like those who stayed with the ancient royal families."

Originally, Hu Yueyue was considering joining the Great Zhou Dynasty, and after the incident with the Fox Demon Empress, she became even more determined to do so.

“The Great Zhou Dynasty might be a good choice, but right now our Nine-Tailed Fox Clan is making a lot of noise, saying that we want to join the ancient royal alliance of all races. If we want to join the Great Zhou Dynasty, we have to suppress these voices.”

Hu Qianqiu knew perfectly well that all of this was for the sake of the Nine-Tailed Fox clan. He had too many things to consider, and one wrong step would lead to utter ruin.

As time went by, the number of people in the ancient city increased, and countless geniuses and prodigies emerged.

On the first floor of the pavilion.

Chen Jiuyang, Wei Tianming, and others gathered here.

"Li Qiye!"

"The Holy Son of the Ye Family has arrived here, and the response has been overwhelming. I don't know if it's the Zhao family of the Ye family or something else, but some people are even saying that the Holy Son of the Ye Family is more powerful than you."

Chen Jiuyang sat by the window, glancing out from time to time, a smile on his face, and said calmly.

Having been tempered by the Root of Extreme Yang, Chen Jiuyang exuded a faint light all over his body and became increasingly charismatic.

He is now no less capable than Wei Tianming, and has become one of the strongest geniuses in the Nine Netherworld, having also entered the ninth level of the Enlightenment Realm.

"Who's so brainless as to say something like that?"

Wei Tianming said in a deep voice.

"I don't know. It's very likely that the Ye family is creating momentum to weaken Li Qiye's prestige."

Chen Jiuyang shrugged and began to speak.

I guess only the person who spread it knows.

"But does Ye Qingshan dare to make a move? If Ye Qingshan is confident enough to defeat Li Qiye, then creating hype is understandable. But if he doesn't have the strength, then he's just asking for trouble, and all this hype will only lead to ridicule from countless people."

Wei Tianming spoke up.

"That remains to be seen. It's likely that only they themselves know the truth. However, Ye Qingshan is only at the ninth level of the Enlightenment Realm, so he shouldn't be so foolish as to challenge Li Qiye."

Chen Jiuyang spoke.

"I almost wish he had that kind of guts." (End of Chapter)
