The Love of Mingya in the Fox Spirit

"Grandpa, come and play!"

Beside him, Dongfang Yuechu looked at the girls with a puzzled expression, feeling a little strange: "Is this the Celestial Academy? Why can't I see any members of the Dao Alliance in charge of this matter?"

The girls noticed Dongfang Yuechu staring in their direction and assumed he was too shy to come over, so they approached him with smiles and said, "Young man, come in quickly!"

Dongfang Yuechu had never experienced such a scene before. Her face flushed instantly, and she stammered, "Um... Sister, is this the examination venue?"

Upon hearing this, the girls assumed that Dongfang Yuechu was making excuses for himself, so they quickly chimed in, "Yes, young man, you've come to the right place. Our Celestial Academy's 'exam' will surely satisfy you."

And so, Dongfang Yuechu was tricked into going in a daze. Zhuge Ming, who was secretly following Dongfang Yuechu with Tushan Yaya at the corner, quickly took out the recording ball (a magical artifact that can record images, which Tushan Yaya had just bought at a stall) and recorded this precious scene.

After all, once Tu Shan Hong Hong discovers that Tu Shan Ya Ya has run away from home, Tu Shan Ya Ya is her younger sister, so at most she will only scold her a few times. But Zhuge Ming will not be so lucky. He will be torn to pieces by Tu Shan Hong Hong. In addition, he called her a violent maniac in front of her a few days ago. When the old and new grudges are settled together, Zhuge Ming will probably be crushed to ashes.

Zhuge Ming decided he couldn't just sit and wait to die, so he recorded the scene of Dongfang Yuechu entering the brothel. He could use it to save his life when Tushan Honghong tried to kill him next time. Once Tushan Honghong's hatred was transferred to Dongfang Yuechu, wouldn't Zhuge Ming be safe?

"Hahaha~, as clever as I am, Dongfang Yuechu, I'm sorry, it's better for you to die than for me. For my own life, I have no choice but to make you suffer. Don't worry, I will definitely burn more paper money for you every Qingming Festival."

Tu Shan Ya Ya, standing to the side, looked at Zhuge Ming, who was grinning foolishly at the memory ball, with a puzzled expression. She jumped up and punched Zhuge Ming on the head.

"You idiot, didn't you have something to do? Why were you secretly following Dongfang Yuechu?"

Zhuge Ming cried out in pain, regaining his composure, and whispered in Tu Shan Ya Ya's ear, "Sister Ya Ya, I lied to Dongfang Yuechu. That wasn't the place for the Dao Alliance exam at all. That place was..."

Tu Shan Ya Ya's face grew redder and redder as she listened, and finally, she couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing, clutching her stomach: "Hahaha~, you mean that's that kind of place? That stinky cockroach even ran in there all smugly, hahaha."

As the two were talking, Dongfang Yuechu, who had just entered, ran out as if fleeing for his life, his face flushed. He then ran away into the distance without looking back. Faintly, one could hear from inside the Heavenly Immortal Courtyard: "Little brother, don't go! You haven't played yet! Little brother?"

"Hahaha~, Dongfang Yuechu, you've finally met your match."

Seeing Dongfang Yuechu's disheveled appearance, Zhuge Ming could no longer hold back and, like Tu Shan Ya Ya, burst into laughter, clutching his stomach.

"You two are laughing quite happily, aren't you?" A sinister voice came from behind the two of them. The owner of the voice was none other than Dongfang Yuechu, who had appeared behind them at some point.

Upon hearing this sound, Zhuge Ming's smile froze instantly, and he quickly covered Tu Shan Ya Ya's mouth with his hand, who was still laughing.

Then he turned around and asked, feigning confusion, "Huh? Isn't this the beginning of the month? Didn't you go to take the entrance exam?"

"How dare you say that? You, Zhuge Ming, lied to me and said the exam would be held at Tianxian Academy, making me... I'm going to kill you!!!" Dongfang Yuechu, enraged, pounced on Zhuge Ming.

"Hey, wait a minute, do you know what I'm holding?" Zhuge Ming released Tu Shan Ya Ya, took out a recording ball from the Qiankun Fan, and waved it in front of Dongfang Yuechu.

"What is this? A commemorative image ball?! Holy crap, you..." Dongfang Yuechu quickly realized what was happening and immediately tried to snatch the commemorative image ball from Zhuge Ming's hand.

Zhuge Ming had anticipated that Dongfang Yuechu would try to snatch it, so he stored the image-recording ball in his Qiankun Fan beforehand, causing Dongfang Yuechu to miss his target.

"Hey, have you thought this through? If you try to take it again, I'll go and give it to Sister Honghong right now!" Zhuge Ming threatened.

"You... fine, Zhuge Ming, you win, I admit defeat." Dongfang Yuechu instantly wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.

Tu Shan Ya Ya was secretly delighted to see Dongfang Yuechu get his comeuppance.

In just nine years, Tu Shan Ya Ya went from crushing Dongfang Yuechu to being easily defeated by him. Tu Shan Ya Ya was filled with resentment, but since she could no longer beat Dongfang Yuechu, she could only endure it. Now, seeing Dongfang Yuechu being bullied, Tu Shan Ya Ya felt a surge of pride.

"Haha~, alright, alright, we're brothers, don't worry, I promise I won't give this to Sister Honghong on my own initiative," Zhuge Ming comforted her.

Well, it's a classic case of slapping someone and then giving them a sweet treat—the same old trick.

Although Zhuge Ming said he promised not to hand it over voluntarily, if Tu Shan Hong Hong were to beat him, it wouldn't count as Zhuge Ming handing it over voluntarily; that would be forced by force, which would be considered forced consent!

Dongfang Yuechu glanced at Zhuge Ming with suspicion, inwardly cursing, "I don't believe you! You little brat, you've got a heart condition!"

However, he outwardly maintained a facade of complete trust in Zhuge Ming, patting Zhuge Ming's chest and saying, "Of course, we're like brothers, of course I'll trust you, haha~"

Then, Tu Shan Ya Ya saw a strange sight: two teenagers were chatting and laughing with their arms around each other's shoulders, but the "fierce light" in their eyes made it seem like they could kill each other a thousand times over.

Humans are so strange!

------------

"This is it." Zhuge Ming pointed to a large hall in front of them, which was crowded with people, and said to Dongfang Yuechu and Tushan Yaya.

"Are you sure you're not trying to trick me again this time?" Dongfang Yuechu was traumatized by Zhuge Ming's methods and refused to easily believe his words.

Zhuge Yuechu understood immediately, and pulled Tu Shan Ya Ya, who was still looking around, into the room. Dongfang Yuechu followed suit.

Upon entering the hall, one is immediately struck by its magnificent and opulent decorations. Inside, a diverse array of people—men, women, children, and the elderly—are gathered, all there to participate in the entrance examination for the One Qi Dao Alliance. This glimpse reveals just how prestigious the One Qi Dao Alliance is under the leadership of Wang Quanba.

Suddenly, a beam of light shone down on the three of them from the main hall.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: "Future Plans"

The three were startled by the sudden appearance of the light. Zhuge Ming, thinking that Tu Shan Ya Ya's identity had been exposed, tensed up and assumed a fighting stance.

The people around them burst into laughter at the three's reaction. A young staff member from the Dao Alliance squeezed out of the crowd and explained to the three, "The three of you need not panic. This light is a magic weapon made by Senior Li Quzhuo, the magic weapon master of the Yi Qi Dao Alliance. It is called the Demon-Revealing Mirror. It can see through disguises and reveal the true form of a demon. It is placed here to prevent demons from infiltrating the Yi Qi Dao Alliance."

When the people around saw that a staff member came out to explain, they knew there was nothing funny to see, so they all turned their attention away and went about their own business.

Zhuge Ming relaxed and thought to himself, "It seems that this demon-revealing mirror cannot break my ability to steal the sky and change the sun, otherwise they would have surrounded us by now."

So Zhuge Ming waved his hand, signaling Tu Shan Ya Ya and Dongfang Yuechu to remain silent, and stepped forward, cupping his fists to the young man and saying:

"We apologize for our rudeness. Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhuge Ming, this is my sister Ya Ya, and this is Fang Yuechu. We have come here to participate in the One Qi Dao Alliance."

For safety's sake, Zhuge Ming kept reminding Dongfang Yuechu not to reveal his surname. If someone with ulterior motives overheard and learned that the Dongfang Spirit Clan still had an orphan, it would be very troublesome, since there were more than a few people who had designs on the Dongfang bloodline in the past.

The young man also politely clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, I am Yin Haowen, a junior member of the One Qi Dao Alliance. The Dao Alliance is currently in dire need of manpower. If the three of you are interested in joining the Dao Alliance to fight against the monsters, that would be the best thing for you. Please follow me."

After saying that, he led Zhuge Ming and the other two towards a room inside the main hall.

On the way, Zhuge Ming asked curiously, "Brother Yin, I heard you say earlier that you are a junior member of the Qi Dao Alliance. Is that a title?"

Yin Haowen chuckled and replied, "The One Qi Dao Alliance is a huge organization with a very strict management mechanism. Under the Alliance Leader, there are elders, deacons, senior members, intermediate members, and junior members. There are layers of management, and no one can be promoted without outstanding achievements. I have only recently joined the Dao Alliance, so I am still a junior member."

Zhuge Ming gave an "oh" and then fell silent.

"It seems that it's not so easy to get by in the One Qi Alliance. No wonder that even with Dongfang Yuechu's abilities, he could only barely become a figurehead leader after spending most of his life. There must have been a lot of twists and turns in the process."

The four entered a room, and Yin Haowen took out three forms from the table and distributed them to Zhuge Ming and the other two, indicating that they should fill them out.

"This is the application form. After you three have filled it out, you can go to the main hall to receive the entrance exam task. Only by completing the task can you truly become a member of my Qi Dao Alliance," Yin Haowen explained.

After the three of them finished filling out the forms, they handed them to Yin Haowen. As for the questions asked on the forms, Zhuge Ming basically wrote them down randomly, because he could tell that the real test of the exam was not here, but in the task inside the main hall. The forms were basically just a formality.

After collecting the forms, Yin Haowen left, leaving the three of them in the room.

"You idiot, why do you have to make me join this stupid Qi Dao Alliance? I'm the second-in-command of Tu Shan. If other monsters find out about me, Tu Shan Ya Ya, how will I ever be able to face them again?" Tu Shan Ya Ya couldn't hold back any longer and burst out after seeing Yin Hao Wen leave.

"Sister Ya Ya, this is just a temporary measure. It's to cover up your identity. Besides, as long as you don't expose yourself, who will know that you, Tu Shan Ya Ya, have joined the One Qi Dao Alliance? The one who joined the One Qi Dao Alliance is just Zhuge Ming's sister, Ya Ya."

Zhuge Ming helplessly comforted this young lady, saying things he himself didn't believe, which was tantamount to saying, "You want to arrest Lu Xun, what does that have to do with me, Zhou Shuren?!"

However, Tu Shan Ya Ya felt that Zhuge Ming's words made some sense, so she stopped being angry and accepted the reality.

"Zhuge, what are your thoughts on the ranking system of the One Qi Alliance that person just mentioned?" Dongfang Yuechu asked Zhuge Ming with a serious expression.

"If you want to realize your ideas, then you must stand at the pinnacle of the Dao Alliance, that is, the position of Alliance Leader. But if you want to become Alliance Leader, then you now have two paths before you:"

First: Exorcise the demon. Just now, I heard that person say that you can't be promoted unless you have outstanding achievements. That means you can only be promoted level by level by constantly making meritorious contributions. Although this method is normal, it is too time-consuming. Moreover, even if you eventually become the leader of the alliance, your power will be divided among your subordinates, and you will become a puppet.

Second: Use a special method. The so-called One Qi Dao Alliance is nothing more than an armed organization formed by a group of large families. To truly have a voice, you must first have your own power within the alliance, and this power must be strong enough that everyone in the alliance is on your side.

A glint of light flashed in Zhuge Ming's eyes as he began to speak eloquently to Dongfang Yuechu.

In the anime, Dongfang Yuechu likely became the leader of the alliance through the first method. Of course, it's also possible that some powerful families saw that Dongfang Yuechu was all alone and had no other forces behind him, so they pushed him to the position of leader to make him easier to control, which led to his success. Otherwise, Dongfang Yuechu alone would not have been able to subdue certain ambitious individuals.

After listening, Dongfang Yuechu seemed to be deep in thought. In the past, he left Tushan on a whim, relying only on his unwavering love for Tushan Honghong. But when it came to facing these realities, Dongfang Yuechu was still too naive.

Seeing that Dongfang Yuechu remained silent, Zhuge Ming realized that Dongfang Yuechu had no plan in mind at all. So he simply made the choice for Dongfang Yuechu: "Yuechu, if you don't want to face these things, then we can divide the work. You will be in charge of the main battlefield, and I will take care of everything else!"

Dongfang Yuechu glanced at Zhuge Ming in surprise, and thought to himself with emotion, "Actually, thinking about it this way, this guy is actually quite good to me, except for his habit of tricking me."

However, Zhuge Ming's next words instantly wiped away the slight feeling of emotion that had just arisen in his heart.

"That way, once I have more men under my command, I can have them gang up on you and I won't have to worry about you ambushing me anymore, hehe." Zhuge Ming chuckled lewdly.

"Get out!!!" Dongfang Yuechu roared angrily, his face full of black lines.

"Hahaha~"

The somewhat tense atmosphere that had just been due to the topic was instantly dispelled by Zhuge Ming's antics. In fact, Zhuge Ming did not want Dongfang Yuechu to be too corrupted by politics. What he wanted was still the world's number one foodie from the anime, who was sometimes silly and sometimes reliable!

"Therefore, I will take on these trivial matters!"

Asking for leave again and again

The college entrance exam results came out today. As you know, the results will be released tomorrow, just like always.

"The Fox Spirit: Mingya's Love" is taking another break.

It's being typed and will take a moment. Once updated, please refresh the page to get the latest update!

The full text of "The Fox Spirit's Love Story" is now available for update. Remember the website:

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Joining the Dao Alliance

"Is that the monster on the list? Ugh, so ugly. (Ice@Fire #Chinese www.xbing.cc)"

In a deep mountain outside Weicheng, Tu Shan Ya Ya pointed at a strangely shaped monster and asked with disdain.

After looking at the scroll in his hand, Zhuge Ming nodded with difficulty. The scroll contained images of the three people's assessment goals recorded in a special way, and it was also Li Quzhuo's work.

Nameless monster: A type of monster that often sneaks into villages at night to steal children for food. Although it is weak, it is extremely good at hiding and escaping, so many cultivators are helpless against it.

"You're ugly and you like to eat children. You've brought this upon yourself and the heavens. You must not be allowed to live!!"

Zhuge Ming put the scroll back into the Qiankun Fan and instructed Dongfang Yuechu and Tushan Yaya: "This monster is extremely good at escaping and hiding, so we must not be careless. Dongfang Yuechu will first use Pure Yang Flame to create an encirclement, but remember to leave an opening and force it in this direction. I will set up an array here, and finally, Sister Yaya will use ice magic to freeze it."

Dongfang Yuechu nodded, indicating that he was fine, but Tushan Yaya pouted and said unconvinced, "I can handle it by myself."

"Sister Ya Ya, have you forgotten what you promised me? You said you would do whatever I say once we leave Tu Shan."

"Hmph! Of course I remember."

Tu Shan Ya Ya turned her head away unhappily. Seeing this, Dongfang Yuechu smiled and walked towards the nameless monster as Zhuge Ming had arranged.

Dongfang Yuechu did not conceal his presence, and the monster quickly discovered that Dongfang Yuechu was walking towards it. After a series of twists, it disappeared from the spot.

Dongfang Yuechu was taken aback at first, as he could no longer sense the nameless monster's aura. However, he was not in a hurry. He released a large ball of pure Yang Flame to surround the surroundings, leaving only one way out in the direction of Zhuge Ming. Then he began to gradually shrink the range of the fire circle, trying to force it out.

Although the nameless monster lacked consciousness, its instincts told it that Dongfang Yuechu's pure Yang Flame was extremely dangerous. Sensing the shrinking circle of fire, it slowly bypassed Dongfang Yuechu and headed towards the only place without the pure Yang Flame, hoping to escape the circle of fire.

But the moment it stepped out of the ring of fire, a bright light suddenly shone from beneath its feet—the revealing array set up by Zhuge Ming.

This formation is specifically designed to deal with opponents who excel at concealment. Everything within the formation will be exposed by the light emitted by it.

The moment the nameless monster appeared, Tu Shan Ya Ya, who had been waiting impatiently, threw a blast of cold air at it, instantly freezing it into a lifelike ice sculpture. It seemed to be dead, since Tu Shan Ya Ya's cold air magic was more than enough to deal with a little monster that hadn't even developed any intelligence yet.

When Zhuge Ming saw that Tu Shan Ya Ya had frozen the little demon to death, he knew that Tu Shan Ya Ya was still very angry and was using the little demon as a punching bag!
