The vicious female Ye Youcha, who is in Shura Field every day

Chapter 226 Ten-Tailed Celestial Fox
Bai Qi stared into Xuan Yuanming's golden eyes and suddenly laughed: "If I asked you to gouge out your dragon heart, would you give it to me?"

Xuanyuan Ming narrowed his eyes, completely unexpected that he would say such a thing.

Anger welled up inside him, and he felt that the other party was being ungrateful.

Su Xiyue's heart skipped a beat, and she frowned as she looked at Bai Qi, "Don't do this..."

It was rare for Xuanyuan Ming to swallow his pride and apologize, as saying something like "cutting out the dragon's heart" would spoil the mood.

But I also know that the pain of losing one's tail is not something that can be forgotten in a short time.

It is something that nothing can make up for.

Bai Qi's words instantly made the atmosphere tense, as if an invisible gunpowder smell filled the air.

A cold glint flashed in Xuan Yuanming's eyes, but surprisingly he did not get angry.

"Bai Qi, I did make a mistake in cutting off the tail. However, it was our first meeting, and it was a life-or-death situation, so misunderstandings were inevitable."

Xuan Yuanming's voice was low and deep. In truth, he didn't think he had done anything wrong. If he hadn't done what he did in that situation, he would have been the one to die.

They might even have their tendons pulled out and their skin peeled off.

The reason she was willing to swallow her pride and apologize to Bai Qi was ultimately for Yue'er's sake.

Otherwise, who does Bai Qi even belong to?
"Kidding."

Bai Qi suddenly withdrew his coldness, his fox tail lazily wrapping around Su Xiyue's wrist. "What would I do with his dragon heart? It's both fishy and hard."

He really wanted to gouge it out, but he knew it was unlikely, and Yue'er wouldn't allow it.

I don't have that ability myself.

As for the so-called apology…

It was just to gain Yue'er's favor.

Su Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak.

Then he heard Bai Qi chuckle again, his eyes flashing with a meaningful smile: "I accept the Dragon Clan Young Master's apology, but—"

He suddenly gripped the beast core tightly. "No need for compensation. I'm afraid of getting my hands dirty."

As soon as he finished speaking, he instantly transformed into his original form, his snow-white nine tails unfurling like a fan, and he swallowed the beast core.

The moment he swallowed the beast core, a violent energy instantly spread throughout his body.

The excruciating pain caused him to groan, and his forelimbs instantly buckled to their knees, his sharp claws digging deep into the soil.

"Uh--"

His blood vessels bulged beneath his snow-white fur, and his bones made a cracking, splintering sound.

Su Xiyue instinctively rushed forward, but Mo Lin grabbed her: "Don't go over there, touching him now will cause his energy to go berserk."

Qingzhu couldn't help but twitch her lips as she listened to Bai Qi's pained voice.

He thought to himself, no wonder Xuanming called Bai Qi a seductive fox. The voice, though clearly a painful roar, had a captivating charm that made one's heart flutter.

It can only be said that foxes, regardless of gender, are naturally skilled at seducing people, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

No wonder Yue'er likes Bai Qi the most.

As Qingzhu was secretly grumbling to herself, Bai Qi's fox tail suddenly grew several times its original size, and purple-gold patterns crawled all over its snow-white fur.

"This is... a nine-tailed celestial fox?"

Ye Ling's eyes narrowed slightly; she possessed the most elite bloodline of the fox clan in ancient legends.

Just as Xuanming was about to make a sarcastic remark, the ground suddenly cracked open with spiderweb-like fissures.

As Bai Qi writhed in agony, all nine of his tails snapped off.

"Bai Qi!"

Su Xiyue broke free from Mo Lin's hand and was about to pounce on him, but was stopped by Xuan Yuanming at the waist.

"Don't worry."

Xuanyuan Ming squinted at the white fox lying in the pool of blood. "He is shedding his bones."

As soon as he finished speaking, a blinding white light suddenly burst forth from the severed tail root of Bai Qi, and nine new golden-striped fox tails burst forth from his body.

It even grew an extra tail, turning its nine tails into ten.

Each tail tip was ablaze with golden foxfire.

Bai Qi's original foxfire was purplish-gold, but it has now completely transformed into gold.

Gold is a more noble type of natal foxfire than purple-gold.

"A ten-tailed celestial fox? Eighth rank?"

Xuanming stared at Bai Qi's ten fox tails wreathed in golden foxfire, his heart filled with mixed feelings—surprise and envy. He said sourly, "You sly fox, you're quite something. You're luckier than me. The position of clan leader of Qingqiu Mountain is definitely yours in the future..."

In the Qingqiu Fox Clan, nobility is determined by the last digit of the name, which also represents strength.

Bai Qi slowly rose from the pool of blood, his ten tails unfurling behind him, each tail's golden foxfire distorting and scorching the air.

He lowered his head and licked the wound on his front paw, then lifted his eyelids to look at Xuanming: "Just say you're jealous."

Her voice still carried a painful hoarseness, yet it couldn't conceal her innate allure.

Xuanming's face flushed red instantly after his secret was exposed: "Bullshit! Would I be jealous of a vixen like you?"

Bai Qi's ten tails swayed gently, and the golden foxfire gradually subsided.

He transformed into human form, his clothes torn to reveal newly formed skin, and even the corners of his eyes were tinged with an eerie red: "Then why are you blushing?"

Xuanming was speechless at Bai Qi's words, his ears turning even redder, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He retorted angrily, "Is it because I was exposed to the sun? Is that not allowed?"

Qingzhu sneered from the side: "It's a cloudy day now."

Ye Ling's silver eyes swept over Bai Qi's newly formed ten tails, and she nodded slightly, "Not bad."

Bai Qi slowly straightened his tattered clothes, his fingertips brushing against the eerie red at the corner of his eye, and chuckled, "You rarely compliment people." His voice was gentle, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Mo Lin keenly sensed that something was amiss and frowned as he looked at Bai Qi.

I always felt that the old fox harbored deep hostility towards Ye Ling. Although he concealed it well, the subtle atmosphere was hard to ignore.

A thought flashed through my mind and I understood the reason.

Ye Ling seemed to have sensed something as well, her silver eyes narrowed slightly, but she didn't say anything more.

Su Xiyue stood aside, watching the undercurrents between the men, and sighed silently in her heart.

Bai Qi's hostility towards Ye Ling may not be solely due to her being his love rival.

The main reason for her running away was breastfeeding.

Bai Qi now hates Ye Ling.

This is something they can only resolve themselves; she couldn't interfere, so she didn't say anything.

Su Xiyue rubbed her stomach, thinking that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet. She said to them, "Some of you go and hunt some game. I'll go and see if there are any fresh wild vegetables or fruits nearby."

Mo Lin was on his way to hunt in the morning when he encountered the beastmen of the Tengshe clan.

He was then recognized by the orc named Mo Jiang, which led to what happened next.

As a result, we haven't eaten breakfast yet, and everyone's stomachs are empty right now.

Su Xiyue had just finished speaking.

Xuanming had already transformed into his true form, the Netherworld Dark Wolf. With a leap, he plunged into the forest, his agile body drawing a graceful arc in the morning light.

A boastful voice came from the wind: "Wait, I'm going to hunt down a ibex and come back."

Qingzhu's emerald green eyes swept over Xuanming's back, and she scoffed lightly: "Remember to clean it up properly. Don't bring it back covered in blood like last time, with internal organs and intestines spilling out all over the place. Who would that disgust?"

As he spoke, wind blades materialized at his fingertips, and he turned and walked towards the stream, saying, "I'm going to catch some fish."

Su Xiyue turned around and went to the cave to get a basket she had woven last night, intending to pick some wild vegetables and fruits nearby, and also gather some mushrooms.

Haven't taken two steps yet.

"Moon, I'll stay with you."

Ye Ling, Mo Lin, Bai Qi, and Xuan Yuanming spoke almost simultaneously, their gazes clashing in the air, instantly filling the air with tension.

She sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation: "I went to pick wild vegetables, not to fight."

Bai Qi swayed his ten tails gently, his smile as warm and gentle as jade: "There are many poisonous snakes in the canyon, but my foxfire can repel them."

Mo Lin remained expressionless, but his voice was unusually gentle: "Snakes know better which wild fruits are non-poisonous."

Ye Ling narrowed her silver eyes slightly, her third eye appearing and disappearing: "My third eye can see through all illusions and can better protect Yue'er's safety."

Xuanyuan Ming simply coiled his dragon tail around the person and pulled them to his side, his dark golden eyes full of provocation: "This lord can fly."

Ye Ling and Mo Lin looked at him at the same time, and sneered in unison, "As if we can't fly."

Su Xiyue was surrounded by four men, her forehead throbbing.

She broke free from Xuan Yuanming's embrace: "Stop arguing, I'll go by myself. You can gather firewood, boil water, wash pots, or if you're really bored, go and dig up a couple of stools. In short, none of you are allowed to follow me."

Without waiting for the men to react, she grabbed the basket and ran off.

Ye Ling, Mo Lin, Bai Qi, and Xuan Yuanming looked at each other, unsure whether to follow or not.

However, worried that Su Xiyue might be in danger, the group decided to secretly follow her.

Meanwhile, Su Xiyue had already entered the depths of the forest.

She turned the system back on the sound, and although it was a bit noisy, she could hear a lot of useful information.

As the sound is turned on.

In an instant, a cacophony of sounds flooded my ears:

"Oh my! Look, look! It's that female! Last night she woke up in the middle of the night and sent the five males to sleep outside the cave."

A chipmunk was squeaking while holding a pine cone.

"Tsk tsk tsk, that Teng Snake is a restless sleeper. It secretly turned its legs into a tail and slipped into this little female's animal skin skirt. It even tried to steal a kiss in the middle of the night, but the green-eyed male sleeping next door slapped it against the stone wall with his paw!"

A gray squirrel was hiding in a tree hole, chattering away and gossiping.

Su Xiyue slipped and almost tripped over a tree root.

"Wait! What the hell is this?!"

She screamed in her head.

"Host, this is a side effect of the 'Spiritual Communication' skill~"

The system gloated, "Should we turn this off?"

"etc."

She suddenly grasped the key information.

"I heard that Feng Qiwu, the daughter of the Phoenix Clan Chief, curses a female named Su Xiyue every day at home. It seems she even had the Phoenix Clan's High Priest cast some vicious curse that makes someone ugly again. That curse can not only make someone incredibly ugly and fat like a giant sow, but also cause their whole body to fester and itch until they scratch themselves until they bleed and tear off their own flesh. It's truly wicked..."

A lark flapped its wings and chirped its tale.

Su Xiyue froze on the spot, the basket in her hand fell to the ground, and her face turned extremely ugly.

Phoenix perches on the parasol tree?
Isn't this Xuanyuan Ming's childhood betrothed?
"That lark!"

She hurriedly looked up and called out to the little creature that was about to fly away, "What is the name of the Phoenix Clan's Great Shaman? Did he agree?"

"Huh? You can hear me?"

The lark flew back, chirping excitedly, "That great shaman is called Fengyan, and he's incredibly fierce. I heard he's already agreed and is preparing some kind of ritual. He's not only gathered a lot of poisonous insects, but he also needs the blood of ninety-nine flamingos. Oh, and it seems he's also preparing an ugly doll. He'll just wait for the full moon to cast the curse."
