Chapter 224 Bloody Feud

On Qingqiu Mountain, the sacred pool, shrouded in purple mist, suddenly began to boil.

In the center of the pool, a figure gradually appeared.

Bai Qi slowly opened his eyes. Behind him, the nine tails stretched out, like a snow-white lotus in full bloom.

He succeeded, his two lost tails grew back, and he was restored to a complete nine-tailed white fox.

However, his cultivation level did not improve much.

This is because he poured all the primordial power he absorbed from the sacred pool into his two tails.

The tail has grown out, but the level of cultivation hasn't improved much.

The primordial power within the Sacred Pool is limited, and many fox clan members have entered it, so naturally, each person can only absorb a limited amount.

Bai Qi was already very satisfied that two tails could grow back.

The sacred pool has been open for three days.

Each of the fox clan members who entered the sacred pool gained something, and everyone wore a happy smile before leaving the sacred pool one after another.

Bai Qi was no different; as the others left, he soon appeared at the entrance of the Sacred Pool.

His beautiful fox-like eyes swept around, but he didn't see Su Xiyue. He immediately knew that she had been taken somewhere by that crazy dragon.

He wasn't angry at all. He gently covered his chest with his hand, and the mark of his partner was faintly visible inside his clothes.

Bai Qi slowly closed his eyes, carefully sensing the current location of Yue'er.

When she opened her eyes again, her gaze was fixed in a certain direction, a faint smile playing on her lips: "So she went to Crimson Rock Canyon..."

Instead of immediately going to find Su Xiyue, he went to Elder Xuyang and asked for a flying beast mount.

Chiyan Canyon is not close to Qingqiu Mountain. If you try to walk there, it will probably take forever to find it.

It would be better to travel there by flying beast.

Xu Yang was resting with his eyes closed in the main hall when he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard Bai Qi's gentle yet somewhat distant voice: "Elder Xuyang, Bai Qi requests an audience."

Elder Xuyang looked toward the entrance of the hall, a glint of light flashing in his cloudy old eyes, and slowly said, "Come in."

Bai Qi stepped into the main hall, with the nine tails swaying gently behind him, like snow-white flowing clouds.

"Kyuubi?"

Bai Luoshu stood behind Elder Xuyang, and smashed the teacup in his hand on the ground with a "clatter".

He stared intently at the nine tails behind Bai Qi, his face turning pale and then flushed.

Three days ago, this piece of trash clearly only had seven tails, so how come he became so strong after just one trip to the Sacred Pool?
Bai Qi glanced at him with a half-smile, his fox tail deliberately sweeping across the other's unpleasant face: "Cousin, what's wrong? Did you burn your hand?"

"you…"

Just as Bai Luoshu was about to lash out, he suddenly remembered how he had been tormented by the venom of the Teng Snake a few days ago. Although he was cured of the poison, he was punished by being sent to the back mountain to reflect on his mistakes.

As a result, he missed the festival, and his anger was so intense that he wanted to burn Bai Qi to ashes, but he also realized that the other party was not someone to be trifled with, so he swallowed his words back.

Elder Xuyang smiled and looked at Bai Qi, "You're not bad, lad. You haven't disappointed me."

Regenerating a severed tail is extremely difficult; even with a sacred pool, it's not easy to regrow a tail.

At most, he can only play a supporting role; the more crucial one is Bai Qi himself.

Bai Qi gently rubbed his cuff with his fingertips, smiling warmly as jade: "Elder, I would like to borrow the Nine-Winged Flying Beast for a while."

"Oh?"

Elder Xuyang squinted his cloudy old eyes, "In such a hurry to see that little female?"

Bai Qi's ears turned slightly red, and his beautiful fox eyes rippled with emotion: "Yue'er was taken to Crimson Rock Canyon by the young lord of the Dragon Clan, and I'm worried."

Before he could finish speaking, Bai Luoshu suddenly interrupted sarcastically: "Even if you now have all nine tails, you're still just an ordinary fox from our Qingqiu Mountain. What makes you think you can compete with the young lord of the Dragon Clan? If I were that female, I would definitely choose him over you."

Bai Qi's eyes turned slightly cold, but his smile deepened. "Cousin seems to know Yue'er very well?"

Bai Luoshu felt a sudden jolt in her heart as he stared at her, and inexplicably felt a little guilty.

He really didn't know Su Xiyue, and hadn't even exchanged more than a few words with her.

The reason I said that was simply to annoy Bai Qi.

Bai Qi stopped looking at him and turned to Elder Xuyang, saying gently, "The young lord of the Dragon Clan is prone to going crazy. I'm afraid Yue'er will be wronged."

Elder Xuyang suddenly perked up, a gossip-like glint flashing in his cloudy old eyes. “Good, good, the flying beasts are in the southeast corner of the stable. Choose one yourself.”

He leaned closer and lowered his voice, "We have to snatch that little female back. We can't lose to that crazy dragon boy. We need to bring honor to Qingqiu."

Then he tossed him a token, saying, "Hurry up and go. You've been in the Sacred Pool for three days. If you don't go soon, even the dragon cubs will be born."

Bai Qi took the flying beast token, his expression a mix of amusement and exasperation: "Elder, rest assured, I will definitely bring Yue'er back, and I will not lose to the young lord of the Dragon Clan."

He left those words behind and turned to leave.

The nine-winged flying beast quickly left Qingqiu Mountain and sped through the sea of ​​clouds. Bai Qi stood on the beast's back, its nine fox tails unfurling in the wind.

As he approached the Crimson Rock Canyon, he suddenly narrowed his eyes. In the distance, the figure of the Teng Snake, circling above the dense forest, was faintly visible in the morning light. Its purplish-black scales gleamed coldly, clearly indicating that it was not an ordinary beastman.

Upon closer inspection, they saw that the nine tails behind them had exploded, and the group of Teng Snakes had completely surrounded Mo Lin, Qing Zhu, and the others.

He frowned: "Did they cross the Endless Sea to find Yue'er? But why did they get involved with the Tengshe clan?"

Just as they were about to command the nine-winged flying beast to land on the ground, Mo Lin suddenly transformed into a giant purple-black serpent with bone wings growing from its ribs. Its venomous fangs were cold, and its icy vertical pupils stared intently at the Tengshe beastmen surrounding them.

Bai Qi's beautiful fox-like eyes flashed with surprise, "The true form of the Teng Snake?"

Immediately afterwards, Ye Ling transformed into the form of an ancient silver moon wolf and soared into the air. Its silver-white fur was covered with dark gold patterns, and its claws gleamed with a three-inch-long cold light. Most terrifying of all were the pair of white wings that pierced out from its shoulder blades.

Even the crescent moon mark on his forehead transformed into a third vertical pupil.

With a single glance, Qingzhu also instantly transformed into a beast, no longer the original Azure Moon Howling Wolf, but an evolved version of the Moon Chasing Sky Wolf.

A faint image of a moon slowly materialized on his back.

Apart from Xuanming's original form remaining unchanged, Ye Ling, Mo Lin, and Qing Zhu's forms have all changed, and their strength has all reached the eighth rank.
Although Xuanming did not appear to have evolved, his strength was still at the peak of the seventh rank.

Even the usually brilliant Bai Qi felt his mind suddenly go blank, and looked over in shock and bewilderment, completely unaware of what had happened.

How come you've all evolved and broken through in such a short time?
He was the only one whose strength remained at the sixth level, making him the weakest among them.

He felt uneasy; the joy of regaining his nine tails vanished completely, and his expression was complicated.

If we're talking about jealousy, there's definitely some truth to it. He's not a saint, how could he possibly resist being jealous?
Bai Qi chuckled to himself, but a smile played on his lips: "Indeed, great danger is accompanied by great opportunity."

He couldn't help but think that if he hadn't gone directly to his sect through the forbidden passage of Beast King City, he would have been in a different situation.

Instead, he could cross the Endless Sea with Ye Ling, Mo Lin, Qing Zhu, and Xuan Ming, and perhaps obtain such an opportunity to break through and evolve.

It might still grow nine tails, and it won't have to worry about the sect's opinion.

Thinking of this, his expression became increasingly complicated, as if he had missed something.

But this emotion was suppressed in an instant.

Bai Qi narrowed his fox eyes, his nine tails gleaming in the morning light.

He leaped lightly off the flying beast and silently approached the battle.

In the center of the canyon, three purple-scaled serpents confronted Mo Lin.

The older of the Tengshe beastmen stared intently at Mo Lin with his cold, serpentine eyes.

His name is Mo Jiang, a confidant of the new patriarch of the Tengshe clan, and now the fifth elder of the Tengshe clan.

He was also one of the orcs who hunted down Mo Lin's grandfather and his father and mother twenty years ago.

The Tengshe bloodline within Mo Lin was extracted by him personally back then.

They thought that the cubs whose bloodline had been drained would certainly not survive.

Unexpectedly, he survived, recovered his bloodline, and possessed exceptional talent, breaking through to the eighth rank.

Such strength is unmatched even among the same generation of the Tengshe sect.

He is a truly exceptional individual.

This made him incredibly regretful, regretting that he had been too soft-hearted to kill him directly back then.

"So it was you, Sunglasses' grandson, the cub whose Teng Snake bloodline was extracted back then. I regret that I let you go back then because I was soft-hearted, giving you the opportunity to recover your Teng Snake bloodline and even break through to the eighth rank."

Mo Jiang's gaze was cold, and the three Teng Snakes beside him also stared at Mo Lin with hostile eyes, as if they were looking at a dead object.

Mo Lin's appearance is six or seven parts similar to his grandfather's.

When Mo Jiang met him again, he recognized him almost instantly.

Mo Lin's expression was icy, his snake-like eyes gleaming with a chilling light: "Mo Jiang..."

The bloody memories of twenty years ago came flooding back like a tidal wave.

The screams of my grandfather as his snake gall was ripped out in the torrential rain, the torn limbs of my father and mother, and the bone needle that pierced my spine to draw blood.

"Looks like you still remember me."

Mo Jiangyin grinned, revealing his venomous fangs. "Perfect, I'll use your venom sac to make medicine for the clan leader—"

Before he could finish speaking, three purple figures pounced at the same time.

"So it was you bunch of scum. Today I'm going to skin you alive."

Xuanming's roar exploded from the side, and the Netherworld Dark Flame transformed into a giant wave that swept in.

Mo Jiang hurriedly dodged, only to see Ye Ling's silver wings pierce through the morning mist, and the ice shooting from between her brows instantly froze the two Teng Snakes in mid-air.

"Crack!"

The two ice sculptures formed by the frozen Teng Snakes were shattered by Ye Ling's claw, sending ice shards and scales flying everywhere.

Mo Jiang had just dodged Xuanming's Netherworld Flames when he turned around and saw his kin killed in a gruesome manner. His snake eyes grew even colder, filled with shock: "Ancient Silver Moon Azure Wolf?"

Ye Ling ignored him, her massive body sweeping through the air and closing in on Mo Jiang in the blink of an eye. Her wolf claws pierced through his bone wings, splattering blood all over his face: "This claw is to avenge the blood loss you suffered back then, Mo Lin."

"you…"

The Mojiang Serpent's tail lashed wildly in the air, but before it could even spray its venom, it was caught by Mo Lin's tail at its vital point, which tightened its grip.

His cold voice rang out, speaking in a human tone: "Was my grandfather's snake gall bladder delicious back then?"

A burst of crisp applause suddenly rang out from the canyon entrance. Xuan Yuanming leaned against the rock wall, watching the spectacle with keen interest in his dark golden eyes: "The blood of the Tengshe clan is indeed quite gruesome."

He took Su Xiyue's hand and asked, "Yue'er, guess who will be the next to die?"

Su Xiyue remained silent. She had initially thought that Mo Lin had simply evolved into a Teng Snake through a fortuitous encounter, but it turned out that he was originally a member of the Teng Snake clan.

Behind that lies such a tragic past.

His grandfather, father, and mother were all brutally murdered, and he, at only three years old, had his Tengshe bloodline extracted. What a deep-seated hatred this was.

I've never heard him mention it even once.
