Fox Demon: The villain at the beginning

Chapter 408: Yin is strong and Yang is weak
Upon seeing the Qing family members appear at this moment, Jin Renfeng couldn't help but blush.

Li Muchen's eyes darted around, and he nudged Li Muchen's waist with his elbow, whispering...
"Hey! Fool, did the Qing family hear what you just said?"

Upon hearing this, Jin Renfeng glared fiercely at Li Muchen.

This guy is clearly just watching him make a fool of himself.

The head of the Qing family was an old woman with gray hair, dressed in a blue robe, with a dignified and slender figure. It was clear that she was a beautiful woman in her youth.

"I was unaware of Elder Jin's presence. I apologize for not greeting you properly!"

The head of the Qing family stepped forward and bowed.

"It is also my presumptuousness to come here and disturb you all."

Seeing how respectful and polite he was, Jin Renfeng felt rather embarrassed.

"A banquet has been prepared in the manor. Please come in and have a chat."

The head of the Qing family stepped aside and raised his hand in invitation.

"Let's skip the banquet. Madam Qing should already know the purpose of my trip."

Jin Renfeng cupped his hands and said,

"I have heard about it."

"Old Madam Qing smiled."

"Since the old lady knows, then this junior will no longer try to hide it."

"I have come here to challenge the experts of the Qing family."

Jin Renfeng's eyes gleamed with a sharp light.

"I wonder if the Qing family is willing to accept the challenge?"

"Since the Mu family, the Deng family, and many other first-class families have taken the initiative to accept the challenge, my Qing family will naturally not lag behind."

The head of the Qing family raised an eyebrow, a hint of cold arrogance appearing on her kind face. She raised her hand and pointed to the group of women behind her, saying...

"The most outstanding members of the younger generation of the Qing family are all here. If you want to take on a challenge, feel free to choose any of them."

"The Qing family fears no one who comes!"

"It seems the Qing family anticipated my arrival! Otherwise, they wouldn't have brought out the younger generation directly."

Jin Renfeng pondered to himself,

"But letting me choose for myself is really quite generous."

Thinking of this, Jin Renfeng immediately turned his gaze to examine the group of women behind Old Madam Qing.

In an instant, a beautiful and charming face came into view.

The Qing family woman was dressed in various colored gauze skirts, with a slender figure, graceful posture, and beautiful appearance.

She is like a bewitching enchantress or a fairy maiden who has fallen from the heavens to the mortal world.

"She truly lives up to her reputation as the Fairy of the Qing Family."

After scanning the area twice, Jin Renfeng thought to himself with admiration.

But at that moment, a sharp pain suddenly came from my waist.

Without even looking, Jin Renfeng knew that it was the two women beside him who had lost their temper.

He quickly looked away and asked seriously.

"Which one of you is the Fairy Miaoyu, Aoki-hime?"

"That's me!"

A voice as melodious as a nightingale's song came from the front row.

Jin Renfeng looked up and saw a beautiful woman dressed in a blue dress, with her hair styled in a flying fairy bun and her face covered by a light veil stepping out and walking forward.

"I've heard that Fairy Miaoyu possesses extraordinary skills, and I would like to ask her for guidance!"

Jin Renfeng cupped his hands in greeting.

"These are just minor tricks, nothing compared to Elder Jin's divine fire technique."

Aoki Hime bowed slightly, her full curves accentuated by the sheer dress.

"Elder Jin certainly knows how to pick!"

The head of the Qing family laughed.

“My daughter is exceptionally beautiful, talented, and strong. She is the most outstanding young person in our Qing family.”

"That suits my taste perfectly!"

Jin Renfeng smiled slightly.

. . . . . .

Because this place is too close to the Qing Family Manor and the city, in order to avoid affecting both places, both sides decided to go to the nearby Bibo Lake for a battle.

"Junior sisters, this flying sword is so wide, why do you have to squeeze in this way?"

Looking at the two women clinging to his arms on either side, Jin Renfeng couldn't help but ask.

During their journey, for some reason, the two women suddenly had a whim and insisted on riding on the same sword as Jin Renfeng. Jin Renfeng didn't think much of it and readily agreed.

Unexpectedly, after agreeing, he was immediately pinned between the two women and unable to move.

"Why are you holding onto your senior brother? Don't you know the answer?"

Huai Zhu glanced at Jin Renfeng and said reproachfully.

"I only glanced at the senior sister of the Qing family a few times and I forgot my manners. If I hadn't been watching over you, wouldn't you have been completely bewitched?"

Jin Renfeng realized that it was because he had scanned the group of Qing family women earlier that his junior sister had noticed him.

"I was just checking the cultivation levels of those Qing family women."

He explained,
"I don't have any other thoughts on it."

"No interest? Your eyes are practically popping out of your head!"

Li Muchen snorted coldly.

"If it weren't for the Qing family patriarch being there, you probably would have already rushed forward to snatch him away."

"You still say you're not in the mood!"

"Nonsense! How could I be so despicable?"

Jin Renfeng retorted.

From beginning to end, he only glanced at them and took the opportunity to admire the appearances of the Qing family women. They were nothing like the exaggerated descriptions she made.

"Besides, everyone has a love for beauty!"

"It's understandable that I was momentarily stunned when I saw so many beautiful women for the first time."

"Everyone has a love for beauty?"

At that moment, Huai Zhu raised her eyebrows slightly, her watery eyes showing a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Senior brother, do you perhaps find me and Sister Mu Chen unattractive, which is why you only focus on the senior sisters of the Qing family?"

What are you talking about?! I didn't mean anything by that at all. How did it suddenly turn into a beauty contest?
Jin Renfeng suddenly felt a headache coming on.

He couldn't understand why Huai Zhu, who was usually reasonable, was acting just like that little vixen this time, being unreasonable.

Huai Zhu snorted softly and turned her head away. She was clearly furious.

Jin Renfeng was at a loss for words.

Soon, the group arrived above Bibo Lake.

"This place is right in the middle of the lake, far from any human habitation. It's a very suitable place to fight!"

Old Madam Qing stopped and said.

"Then let's fight here!"

Jin Renfeng agreed.

Seeing that the battle was about to begin, the two women released Jin Renfeng's arms.

"Senior Brother Jin has such a good relationship with his two junior sisters!"

Upon seeing this, Aoki Hime smiled.

"All talk about good feelings is just blatant complaining."

Jin Renfeng waved his hand and sighed. His expression was quite complicated.

Upon hearing this, Huaizhu couldn't help but roll her eyes at the man.

Aoki Hime was also taken aback, not understanding what he meant.

The two stood on either side, and the rest of the crowd also made way for them.

With a stomp of her foot, the two-meter-long azure jade ruyi beneath her feet immediately rose into the air, slowly shrank, and fell into her palm.

Immediately, a beam of azure light enveloped his body, forming a protective azure shield.

"Senior Brother Jin, what I hold in my hand is the most precious treasure of my Qing family, the Eight Treasures Jade Ruyi!"
Combined with my Qing family's Treasure-Falling Technique, it can drop people or treasures, its power is boundless.

"Senior brother, you must be careful!"

"Junior Sister Qing, please make your move!" Jin Renfeng laughed loudly, standing boldly on the Xunli Sword, unmoved.

Seeing Jin Renfeng's reaction, Li Muchen's face showed a hint of worry.

"The Qing family's Treasure-Falling Technique is quite troublesome, especially that Qing Muyuan, who I heard has reached the point where she can cast spells on people."

"I wonder if the idiot can handle it."

"Senior brother also dealt with Qing Ruoyan from the Qing family back then, so he must have some understanding of the Qing family's magic."

Huai Zhu spoke up.

"With your strength, even if you are targeted by magic, dealing with Qingmu Yuan should not be a problem."

Upon hearing this, Li Muchen's expression softened considerably.

Previously, whether dealing with Mu Shenqi or Deng Qiyue, the fool had handled them with ease. Now, dealing with Qingmu Yuan should not be a problem either.

"Speaking of which, after observing for a while, it seems that all the younger generation of the Qing family who are showing up are women."

Huai Zhu glanced around and frowned.

"Even the elders and the patriarch are the same."

"How come the Qing family has no male descendants?"

"This prestigious first-class family, such a large clan, naturally has both men and women."

"It's just that the men of the Qing family are too weak in cultivation, and there are too few of them who are worth mentioning, so they are not well known."

Li Muchen explained.

"We're all family, connected by blood, and share the same background. How can there be such differences between men and women?"

Huai Zhu did not understand.

"I don't know the specifics either."

"I wonder if the problem lies with the Qing family's cultivation techniques or their inherited magical treasures."

"Throughout history, those who have achieved something in the Qing family have all been women. Even the non-Qing family disciples who have joined the Qing family are not as good as the women."

"Over time, the Qing family has become the family it is today, with women outnumbering men."

Li Muchen shrugged.

"The world is so vast, there are truly countless wonders!"

Upon hearing such a strange story, Huai Zhu couldn't help but show a hint of surprise on her pretty face.

On the other side, the head of the Qing family and the elders of the Qing family were also observing the reactions of these two.

"I wonder if Mu Yuan is strong enough to deal with that kid!"

The old woman spoke first.

"If a peak-level demon king's magic weapon were present, Mu Yuan would definitely be no match for him."

The head of the Qing family said.

"However, Jin Renfeng has already agreed not to use the Great Demon King's magic weapon, so he probably won't go back on his word."

"This gives Mu Yuan an opportunity."

The elders standing nearby also agreed.

"Jin Renfeng immediately chose Mu Yuan, so it seems that, just as we speculated, he came according to the list of the Masked Group."

An old woman spoke up.

"If I'm not mistaken, it must be that old devil from the East plotting behind the scenes, targeting those forces that are aligned with royal families."

"The head of the Qing family said calmly."

"Now that we've been targeted by Shenhuoshan Manor, it seems that Mu Yuan's gatherings with those masked boys will have to be postponed for a while."

The old woman said.

"Our Qing family is ultimately a neutral faction. If Mu Yuan gets too involved with that Wang Quan family boy, it will inevitably be misunderstood by the Eastern faction."

So what if it's a misunderstanding?

An elder said indignantly,

“Our patriarch is a genuine peak-level demon king.”

"In terms of strength, the Qing family is only second to those top families. Do you think that now that we've joined the royal faction, the Divine Fire Mountain Manor would dare to coerce us?"

"The Deng family's Ten Buddha Formation also possessed the power of a peak Great Demon King, yet this kid almost turned it to ashes!"

The old woman snorted coldly.

"Moreover, Dongfang Guyue is a powerful demon emperor, so what can a peak great demon king do?"

"Stop arguing! I have my own plans for how to deal with Mu Yuan!"

The head of the Qing family interrupted the argument between the two.
"Now all we have to do is wait for the outcome of this confrontation."

"Let's see if this knife sent out by Dongfang Guyue is truly sharp."

. . . . . .

A slight hint of anger appeared on Aoki Hiyori's pretty face.

She had already warned him about the power of her own magic, but the other party was still unprepared, clearly not taking her seriously.

Driven by her anger, she immediately channeled her magical power and released a beam of divine light that seemed to fall from the sky.

A thin line of cyan light traced its way towards the flying sword beneath Jin Renfeng's feet.

Upon seeing the divine light approaching, Jin Renfeng stomped his foot, and Xunli Sword immediately leaped up to dodge it.

Having missed her first attack, Aoki Yuan immediately activated her magic and unleashed another Falling Treasure Divine Light.

At the same time, he silently channeled his magical power, urging the departing azure light to turn back, forming a pincer attack.

"Remote control is possible? Not bad!"

Jin Renfeng chuckled lightly, but this time he neither dodged nor avoided.

Dang——dang——

Two beams of divine light struck the Xunli Sword directly, producing two crisp sounds.

A cyan light enveloped the Xunli Sword, eventually slowly seeping into the precious sword.

"It's done!"

Upon seeing this, Aoki Hime's expression brightened with joy.

Her Treasure-Dropping Divine Light can strike magical artifacts; once it hits, it forms a seal, temporarily severing the connection between the artifact and the user.

Now that the sword has been hit by her treasure-dropping technique, it is probably no longer able to be used.

On the other side, seeing that the Falling Treasure Divine Light had indeed hit its mark, Jin Renfeng also showed an expectant look on his face. He tentatively began to manipulate the Xunli Sword under his feet.

Clang——

With a clear whistle, a beam of azure divine light was shattered from the blade of the Xunli Sword.

Then it transformed into a streak of silver light and fell directly into Jin Renfeng's palm.

"As expected, although this Treasure Drop Technique can seal magical treasures, it is also limited by one's strength."

"Unable to use on higher-level magical artifacts."

Jin Renfeng thought to himself.

He deliberately let the Falling Treasure Divine Light from the Xunli Sword flow, just to experience the power of that Falling Treasure ability.

The result was not as he had expected.

The Falling Treasure Divine Light, at the level of a Demon King, is completely ineffective against the magic weapon of a Great Demon King.

With a single tremor, the Xunli Sword unleashed the azure divine light.

"how is this possible?"

"How could my Treasure-Dropping Divine Light have no effect on you?"

Aoki Hime was quite surprised to see this.

"I have no idea either!"

Jin Renfeng teased.

"Perhaps your magic is unfamiliar with unfamiliar things, so it doesn't recognize my magic weapon."

Upon hearing this, Aoki Yuan was quite unconvinced and repeatedly waved the blue divine light in her hand, striking at the other side.

Faced with the overwhelming divine light, Jin Renfeng sheathed his sword.

Although the Xunli Sword was a magic weapon he forged himself, it ultimately reached the level of a Great Demon King.

He had already agreed not to use the Great Demon King's magic weapon, so it wouldn't be appropriate to use the Xunli Sword again.

After putting away the magic weapon, Jin Renfeng glanced at the divine light in front of him, raised his palm, and unleashed a sword aura across the sky.

A golden sword aura, several dozen feet long, soared into the air, like a dragon, and cleaved the azure divine light in two.
