I have the best bloodline

"No. What I meant was, Princess, if you walk down the street like this, won't you get kicked away by some careless cultivator? I've been kicked away by my mother more than once, let alone strangers."

"what?"

Princess Wuxi was taken aback, then chuckled. She raised her right fox-shaped hand, and the female official beside her, who looked cautious and dared not stray too far from the princess for fear of kicking her, shouted loudly when she saw the princess raise her hand: "Prepare the carriage!"

At her command, ripples spread across the street. A general in full armor, wielding a long spear, and a commander of the Demon Suppression Division dressed in white robes and red robes slowly rose from the bluestone ground to the surface, respectfully receiving Princess Wuxi's order.

"Would you like to come and eat some of my rice?"

Princess Wuxi stood up, crossed her arms, raised an eyebrow at Su Yan, and asked with a sly smile.

I'll update three chapters first, and then update four chapters later.

After writing five chapters overnight, I reviewed them and found that some parts had strayed from the topic, so I deleted them and rewrote them.

Chapter 101 Martial arts performance in front of the emperor

"Clang!"

The soldiers who emerged from the ground planted their spears on the ground with a crisp sound, and in unison performed a spear-supporting salute to Princess Wuxi.

Xia Yu's soldiers were all equipped with long spears, and their armored attire made it very difficult to salute. Therefore, when saluting was required during a mission, the armored soldiers would grip their spears tightly with both hands, slam them to the ground, and stand ramrod straight to receive the inspection of their superiors.

"cough cough"

The commander of the Demon Suppression Division, a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, coughed twice, looking exhausted, and said to Su Yan, "We will escort the princess throughout her journey to ensure her safety. If any cultivator tries to break through the military formation, he will be dead the moment he makes a move."

Although Princess Wuxi is unpretentious, the title of princess is not just for show. As the granddaughter of the current Third Prince, she is a direct member of the royal family, and her noble status needs no further explanation.

However, the guards usually lay in wait in places where the princess could not see them, so that the princess would not feel like she was being monitored.

"Would you like to come and eat some of my rice?"

Princess Wuxi smiled and looked at Su Yan, wanting to show the little fox some of her strength.

Although she disliked the title of princess, Wuxi was not a rigid or inflexible person. Since neither soft nor hard tactics worked, nor even the family ties, Princess Wuxi stopped pretending to be approachable and went straight for power, using abduction to trick Su Yan into joining her big ship.

"In Xia Yu's main city today, apart from officials of the third rank and above, you can kick whoever you want," Princess Wuxi said with great pride, but as if remembering something, she added, "Of course, recently many chief disciples from other major sects have come to Xia Yu's main city. It's best not to kick those guys, otherwise it won't do us any good if we establish our own independent faction in the future."

"Those cultivators are narrow-minded, even smaller than an asshole."

The commander of the Demon Suppression Division turned his head with a completely natural expression, ignoring Princess Wuxi's loud and secret plot.

Princess Wuxi used to hide her intentions, but after they were exposed, she stopped pretending altogether and spent all her time looking at the city defense map and thinking about how to escape. Until she actually carried out her escape plan, she was still a princess.

They dared not point fingers at the princess, lest she become displeased one day and create obstacles for them before running away, which would be a real disaster.

"Prepare the carriage!"

Princess Wuxi raised her hand and beckoned. The female official, being extremely sensible, helped the princess stand up and held her in her arms, allowing the princess to maintain eye contact with Su Yan. The group then walked onto the street as the lanterns were lit, escorted by the Imperial Guards.

"You should worry about yourself. This rascal is trying to do something underhanded because she thinks her aunt is tougher than her. Little fox, you better be careful not to give your aunt a sister and bring back a foster mother for yourself."

Seeing Princess Wuxi's demeanor, Auntie instantly understood what the foxy woman was up to. She subtly told Su Yan to be careful, but she didn't stop Su Yan from playing with Princess Wuxi anymore.

Previously, Princess Wuxi was clearly taking advantage of her nephew, spouting ideals and future plans to get something for nothing. Now, it's the other way around, with Su Yan taking advantage of the princess.

The aunt couldn't think of a reason to stop him. As long as Su Yan didn't get too drunk and recognize a godmother, things would develop in a good direction. As the saying goes, it's a fool not to take advantage of a good deal.

“Auntie, although I have a low level of education, I am still quite clear-headed. How could I possibly recognize a godmother?”

Su Yan used telepathy to complain about her aunt's bizarre ideas, saying that she had consumed too much toxic motivational talk in the past.

In Xia Yu's main city, no matter how much people boasted, as long as his aunt said no, Su Yan would unconditionally believe her. Although his aunt was a bit stingy and lazy, she would never harm him!

"Who knows what you're thinking? It wouldn't be surprising if you were really swayed by the money of a rogue. A greenhorn like you is most susceptible to temptation. In the future, you should ask the Queen Bee of Qinyuan for advice more often. That woman should know how to pass through a garden of flowers without getting entangled," Auntie said.

After Su Yan finished communicating with his aunt through the audio channel, he looked at the Xia Yu soldiers guarding him. They were arranged in a circle with a hollow space in between, ensuring that other pedestrians and Princess Wuxi kept a distance of more than three meters. They almost occupied half of the street. The Xia Yu people would all keep their distance when they saw the soldiers dressed as imperial guards.

When the cultivators saw the people from the Demon Suppression Division, they also kept their distance and dared not approach. An additional no-man's-land was formed outside the three-meter-wide area. Everyone watched Princess Wuxi from afar, paying their respects. Princess Wuxi, in her fox form, slightly raised her head and put on an expressionless face.

In the silent atmosphere, Su Yan felt extremely uncomfortable. Even though no one was looking at her, she still felt awkward and couldn't help but start a conversation:

"Princess, I heard that you recently got a rabbit at home? It's all pink and white with red stripes on its forehead?"

If Su Yan wasn't mistaken, the rabbit that Princess Wuxi kept was the same Moon Rabbit that he and Sister Xi'er had brought back from northern Xia Yu. That rabbit was also particularly prone to crying; it would cry whenever it saw people.

On the contrary, Su Yan did not cry when he saw the fox form, but he began to tremble when he saw the humanoid object.

"Do you know that rabbit demon?"

"I've seen it once by chance, but I can't reveal the specifics."

Hearing Su Yan's accurate description and explanation, the princess complained with a look of disapproval: "Since you know it, you should also know how outrageous it is. It likes to chase after foxes and play, and you can't shake it off!"

"It actually laughs when I poke its head with my paw. I've never seen such a stupid rabbit before. I really don't know how it survived in the wild."

Princess Wuxi seemed unaware that the rabbit Emperor Wusheng had casually tossed to her for care was the legendary Jade Rabbit.

The Jade Rabbit, the Nine-Tailed Fox, and the Three-Legged Golden Crow have been allies since ancient times. The Jade Rabbits are already used to the aura of the Nine-Tailed Fox. Compared to the human cultivators who forcibly brought it out of its nest, the Jade Rabbits naturally prefer to be with Princess Wuxi, who is the Nine-Tailed Fox.

The Jade Rabbit's bloodline contains the recipe for the elixir of immortality, as well as countless alchemical formulas.

It is not advisable to reveal the Jade Rabbit's identity. Su Yan remembered that Sister Xi'er had said that when she had time, she would send it back to the Jade Rabbit's hidden territory. As allies, it would not be difficult for the Nine-Tailed Foxes to ask the Jade Rabbit for medicine. They just needed to prepare the necessary medicinal materials and ask for their permission.

There's no need to covet this jade rabbit.

"Princess, the road ahead is blocked. Should we detour around the dense crowd?"

The commander of the Demon Suppression Division sensed the dense crowd on the way to the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion through his divine sense, so he looked at the princess and asked her if they should temporarily bypass the crowd.

"Is the road blocked?"

Princess Tu, who was complaining to Su Yan about her silly nature, was brought back to her senses by a single sentence from the commander of the Demon Suppression Division, and frowned as she asked.

"Yes, about two thousand people are signing up for the preliminary rounds of the Imperial Martial Arts Competition," the commander said.

The Imperial Martial Arts Competition is a very important large-scale performance after the ancestral worship ceremony. Cultivators from all over the world gather together to compete in front of Emperor Wusheng. The top ten cultivators in the final battle will receive rewards from the Xia Yu royal family.

They can choose something they want from elixirs, weapons, spells, or status.

Because of the generous rewards, some disciples from major sects who were on good terms with Xia Yu would go off to earn some extra money after accompanying their elders to visit the royal family, and also to show off the power of their sects.

There is still a week until the New Year, and no matter how many cultivators sign up for the Imperial Martial Arts Competition, only one hundred people can stand on the competition stage, and only ten people will ultimately receive the reward from Emperor Wusheng.

However, most cultivators were there to participate in the court games directly managed by the Ministry of Revenue, and they didn't care at all about the martial arts competition or anything like that. The Xia Yu ancestral worship ceremony was none of their business.

"Yu Yanning is here too?" Su Yan stood on tiptoe and glanced into the long line, spotting a familiar face.

Chapter 102 This Empress will take you to see the world

"Of course I'm here too! If I can make it into the top 100 in such a large event, I can get a chance to be seen by His Majesty the Emperor of No Life and the Commander of the Demon Suppression Division, and leave my mark. That will make it easier to get promoted!"

Yu Yanning answered Su Yan's question with a confident look, but her gaze couldn't help but drift to Princess Wuxi, who was being held in the arms of the female official. However, under the stern gaze of the commander of the Demon Suppression Division, the girl was unable to carry out her wicked scheme.

In Xia Yu's main city, almost none of the beautiful foxes are wild, and there aren't any ugly ones either. Lost or abandoned foxes have resettlement points. If Yu Yanning wants to pet a fox's head, she needs to buy one herself, or go to her colleagues' foxes for free, or go to Ru Chun Yuan.

Yu Yanning had long wanted to get a fox, especially in the winter when the wind was howling outside, while she was snuggled up in bed with a small heater – that would be the perfect life. Unfortunately, Yu Yanning, who worked at the Demon Suppression Division, didn't have the time for that.

We would start training as soon as we woke up in the morning, and after lunch break we would familiarize ourselves with the procedures of the Demon Suppression Division. We would also carry out some investigations and official duties in the main city with our fellow new recruits. We would be busy until nightfall before we had a little time to spare, but usually after our shifts ended, we would have to deal with banquets invited by our colleagues.

Yu Yanning is really busy, so busy that she doesn't even have time to go to Ruchun Garden to touch Su Yan.

"Are you so confident that you can make it into the top 100?" Su Yan asked Yu Yanning with some confusion. Her cultivation level should not have been at the Foundation Establishment stage for long. With such strength, she should not be able to make it out of the preliminaries among the vast number of sect cultivators, right?

If the Central Continent is the world of dynasties, then the other continents are the worlds controlled by sects. Even the local warlords in the Southern Continent have to pay tribute to the three major demonic sects regularly. The sects are extremely powerful, and some of their lineages have been passed down for countless years, so long that they can even be traced back to the time when innate beings fought each other.

Those cultivators in the sect are no joke; they all secluded themselves in the mountains from a young age to focus on cultivation.

"Well, participation is what matters. Anyway, there's a forty-year age limit for the Imperial Martial Arts Competition, so who knows, we might win? There's no way that cultivation monsters can be everywhere, right?" Yu Yanning said with a rather carefree attitude.

She never intended to win; she just wanted to make a name for herself in the martial arts competition. She had no intention of fighting her way into the top ten from among thousands of competitors to lay the foundation for her future career advancement.

Yu Yanning is the kind of person who has both talent and fighting skills, but she loses out because of her background. Her family has been in business for generations and has some money, but money can't buy any good cultivation techniques. Without selling herself to a sect, only the Demon Suppression Division can meet her needs.

Yu Yanning didn't want to miss any opportunity for promotion and planned to continue climbing up the Demon Suppression Division so that she could obtain miraculous magic.

"By the way, where are you planning to go? Are you going to stroll along the flower market on Imperial Avenue? Or are you going to line up in front of the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion to register?" Yu Yanning asked.

The custom of displaying flowers on the streets originated from tribal clans. During the New Year, shops on both sides of the main road in the imperial city would display clusters of flowers in front of their doors, symbolizing prosperity, good fortune, and happiness.

During the New Year period, apart from the newly built ice cities, the most bustling place is Huangcheng Avenue. Looking around, the streets are filled with vendors hawking their wares or monks playing games with customers. The streets are decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, creating a magnificent and dreamlike scene.

"Go to the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion, but not to register," Princess Wuxi waved her front paw and said, "I'm going to splurge a bit, spoil this little fox, and get him used to a life of extravagance. I'll make him, despite his inner resistance, have no choice but to bow to material things, gritting his teeth and pursing his lips, looking at me with indignation, and finally submitting to my side, vowing to become my most loyal subject!"

"what"

Su Yan stared in disbelief as the princess uttered such a shameful statement in front of everyone.

"?"

Both Auntie and Yu Yanning had question marks appearing on their foreheads, their faces full of black lines as they looked at Princess Wuxi.

"Today's expenses will all be on my tab!" Princess Wuxi said again with absolute certainty, breaking free from the lady-in-waiting's embrace and landing on the ground. She transformed into a little girl who was almost half a head taller than Su Yan, and with a lewd grin, she stood with her hands on her hips, looking at the dumbfounded Su Yan beside her:

"Admit it! Admit that you utterly loathe me, yet your body honestly submits to me, and in the end, you become extremely dependent on me, both physically and mentally!"

Su Yan was speechless: "Princess, is it really okay for you to reveal your inner plans like this? Doesn't it make me more wary now?"

"I disdain intrigue and trickery. I prefer to strike hard and strike straight to the heart of the matter, making you admit defeat wholeheartedly. Otherwise, how can you be truly convinced?" Princess Wuxi grabbed Su Yan's hand and led him into the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion.

Aunt: "."

Is it that the princess is too stubborn, or is our little fox really that outrageous?

If this is considered marrying into a family from the opposite direction, then this marriage is being done way too rigidly.

"This Empress? She just referred to herself as this Empress?"

The slightly dim-witted Yu Yanning only realized that the green-eyed white-furred fox from before was royalty after Princess Wuxi repeated "this palace" countless times and after seeing the unfamiliar commander leave with Princess Wuxi!

She originally thought that the commander of the Demon Suppression Division was a fellow Daoist of Su Yan's aunt, and that the soldiers in armor were soldiers who followed the commander. However, she never expected that things would take such a shocking turn!

Yu Yanning looked at her aunt with hopeful eyes and asked cautiously, "Senior, the little fox won't be going to the palace to serve the royal family in the future, right?"

She really has a thing for Su Yan. If Su Yan really goes to the palace in the future, it will be hard to find such a beautiful white fox in the world. It's only because Su Yan is a fox demon who knows how to transform into human form, otherwise she would not restrain herself.

“Your idea is really out of the ordinary. How could the royal family go to such lengths for a fox? You should be more worried about whether Princess Wuxi will keep the fox for a year.”
