How could the Azure Jade God not understand the hidden meaning in the Nine-Tailed Demon God's words? But as the saying goes, humans and demons cannot coexist. Their harmony was only temporary, not true. And since they lived in the same region, it was only natural for them to have conflicts.

Often, both sides have their own reasons, especially when they are on opposing sides, in which case you can forget about reasoning with them.

Moreover, the reason why the Azure Scale Holy Land waited three days to cause trouble was because they had found the real reason to come and hold them accountable.

"Alright, then let's leave it at that. But there's one more thing you need to explain to me," the Azure Jade God said in a deep voice after pretending to think for a moment.

The Nine-Tailed Demon God was stunned, and then asked in return.

"Do you have any other reason to cause trouble?"

Without saying a word, the Azure Jade God used his power to condense the image of Ye Liuyun.

"You know this little fox demon, right? Don't say you don't. The cultivators who came back that day said they saw her at your fox clan's banquet, and she was even sitting in the same row as your fox king. This fox demon is an important figure in your fox clan, isn't she? She killed one of our Qinglin Holy Land's Nirvana Elders. Hand her over, and I'll immediately take people back," said Qingyu Heavenly God.

Upon seeing Ye Liuyun's expression, the Nine-Tailed Demon God cursed inwardly.

"This? Sigh! I've shot myself in the foot," the Nine-Tailed Demon God muttered to himself.

Because she deliberately used her power to lure the wooden mine towards Ye Liuyun, otherwise the mine wouldn't have reacted so quickly.

As for Ye Liuyun, who was standing at the entrance of her courtyard, she was naturally embarrassed. She didn't expect that after she let those humans go, they would turn around and sell her out. She could only say that she had brought it on herself.

The Nine-Tailed Demon God knew that the other party must have solid evidence before coming to cause trouble.

"You've got it wrong. Our clansman is only at the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm. How could he possibly kill a Nirvana cultivator like you?" The Nine-Tailed Demon God would certainly not admit it.

But the Jade God gave a cold laugh.

"Nine-Tailed Demon God, do you think I don't know that your fox clan is skilled in soul attack techniques, and that the strength of your soul is higher than your own cultivation level? Our elder was killed by someone who destroyed his soul. In the entire Azure Wood Domain, besides your fox clan, who else has such methods?" Azure Jade God retorted.

Seeing that the other party had already said that, the Nine-Tailed Demon God was too lazy to waste any more words.

"Fine, even if it was our people who did it, it's your own fault, Qinglin Holy Land. You Qinglin Holy Land seem to have been domineering in the Qingmu Domain for a long time. How many demon cultivators have you killed without cause? Why can't you stand it when your cultivators are killed? If you want to fight, I'm ready, but you'd better think carefully about the consequences." The Nine-Tailed Demon God said with a sneer.

Seeing the Nine-Tailed Demon God's strong stance, the Azure Jade Celestial God fell into deep thought. First of all, if they really fought, she was definitely no match for the Nine-Tailed Demon God unless other celestial gods came to her aid. This would not benefit their Azure Scale Holy Land at all, and there was a possibility that some Nirvana cultivators would perish. In this complex era, preserving the strength of her own holy land was her top priority.

“Alright, let’s find another way to resolve this. We will each send out an outstanding Nascent Soul cultivator to fight, and let the two of them settle our dispute through battle. If we lose, I will compensate your Fox Clan for their losses and apologize. If your Fox Clan loses, you will also have to compensate our Azure Scale Holy Land for their losses. What do you think?” Azure Jade God came up with a compromise.

Upon hearing this, the Nine-Tailed Demon God pondered the other party's purpose.

"So confident? Fine, then my fox clan will play along to the end. So, can we set a time and a place, or can we do it now?" the Nine-Tailed Demon God asked.

The Jade God smiled confidently and then called out a name.

"Qingjue, come here for a moment."

As soon as she said this, a rather arrogant-looking man in blue robes flew out from the crowd behind her and landed next to the Jade Goddess.

"Greetings, Ancestor." The young man immediately bowed and said.

The Azure Jade God nodded, then spoke to the Nine-Tailed God.

"There's no need for such trouble. We can do it now. As for the location, I believe the fox clan definitely has a suitable place to fight."

The Nine-Tailed Celestial God immediately glanced at the young man. Seeing the special power fluctuations emanating from his body, she knew that he must be a cultivator with a special physique and a cultivation level at the peak of the Transformation Realm. As a demon god-level cultivator, she knew at a glance that there were probably no peers on their fox clan side who could defeat him.

"Azure Origin Sword Body, no wonder you're so confident." The Nine-Tailed Demon God revealed the young man's true abilities.

The Jade God chuckled.

"Why is Fellow Daoist Nine-Tailed Fearless? Or are you planning to admit defeat?"

The Nine-Tailed Demon Goddess certainly wouldn't admit defeat so easily. She thought for a moment, then looked at the Fox King, essentially telling him to find a suitable opponent.

However, the Fox King was in a dilemma. Currently, among the fox clan cultivators who have reached the peak of the Transformation Realm, there is only one person, and he only has the seven-tailed bloodline. The seven-tailed bloodline would definitely have difficulty resisting the rare Azure Origin Sword Body of the human race, because the owner of the Azure Origin Sword Body must also be a sword cultivator, and his combat power is no joke.

Just as the Fox King was pondering who to send into battle, a figure flew rapidly out of the palace and landed beside the Nine-Tailed Demon God.

"Senior Nine-Tailed Fox, Senior Fox King, since I caused this trouble, I'll deal with it myself," Ye Liuyun said.

Ye Liuyun's sudden flight surprised the fox clan cultivators, while the Nine-Tailed Demon God breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that if Ye Liuyun was willing to help, they wouldn't lose.

"Hmph! It really was you. You're the one who killed our Qinglin Holy Land elder, aren't you?" The Qinglin Holy Lord, standing behind the Qingyu Celestial God, asked.

Ye Liuyun chuckled.

"Hehe, that's right, I did kill that old guy who used the Wood Lightning Technique. He brought it on himself." Ye Liuyun admitted directly.

The cultivators on the Qinglin Holy Land side were immediately enraged.

"You? Arrogant monster."

When the Nine-Tailed Demon God saw the other party call Ye Liuyun a monster, he immediately glared at the guy with great displeasure. With just that one glance, the Nirvana cultivator who had spoken spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.

The Azure Jade God was startled and immediately looked at the Nine-Tailed Demon God with vigilance.

"Nine-Tailed Demon God, what are you doing, attacking a junior like this?" Qingyu Heavenly God questioned.

The Nine-Tailed Demon God replied with a sinister gaze.

"Then tell your people to keep their mouths shut and stop talking about monsters all the time. Do they think they're the masters of the Burial God Star?"

The Jade Goddess's face was very ugly, but she suppressed her anger and spoke again.

"Since your people have agreed to fight, let's find a place."

The Nine-Tailed Demon God glanced at Ye Liuyun, and seeing Ye Liuyun's confident expression, he smiled and said to the Azure Jade God.

"Then let's go to the place where our fox clan members spar. Please, everyone."

Qingyu Tianshen wasn't afraid of the fox clan's ulterior motives, because she knew that the fox clan would never actually fight them unless absolutely necessary.

So, led by the Nine-Tailed Demon God, they went to the Flying Fox Palace of the Fox Clan, which was the place where Ye Liuyun had been sparring with the Fox Clan cultivators for the past few days.

Before long, the stands around the palace were filled with humans and foxes, their auras locked in an invisible confrontation.

"Ancestor, is she really alright? The difference in their cultivation levels is huge. Even with the Nine-Tailed Bloodline's blessing, it will be difficult for her to defeat this human brat," the Fox King transmitted his voice with some concern.

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems," the Nine-Tailed Demon God reassured her.

After saying this, the Nine-Tailed Demon God turned his gaze to the Azure Jade God opposite him.

"Fellow Daoist Qingyu, I wonder how you wish to conduct this contest? Is it a life-or-death battle, or something that ends in a draw?" the Nine-Tailed Demon God asked with a smile.

The Azure Jade God first focused his gaze on Ye Liuyun.

"This little girl was able to kill Mu Lei with her cultivation at the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm, which means she must be extraordinary. Moreover, she can stand on equal footing with the Fox King. Could she be a Nine-Tailed Bloodline? But even if she is a Nine-Tailed Bloodline, the difference in their cultivation levels is so great. How could she possibly kill Mu Lei?"

Qingyu looked at Ye Liuyun and pondered for a while, then turned her gaze to the Nine-Tailed Demon God. Seeing the Nine-Tailed Demon God's confident demeanor, she became even more hesitant to risk her outstanding disciple.

"Let's stop here. I believe you don't want this little girl to be killed," said the Azure Jade God.

Seeing that the other party said this, the Nine-Tailed Demon Goddess did not intend to let Ye Liuyun fight to the death. Moreover, it was not convenient for Ye Liuyun's Heavenly Fox Power to be exposed here, so she was not entirely confident.

"Alright, then so be it. Bai Miao, go ahead. If there's a life-or-death crisis, I'll intervene." The Nine-Tailed Demon God gestured to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun chuckled, and the next moment he transformed into a white rainbow and flew towards the arena, while Qing Jue on the other side also transformed into a blue sword light and arrived on the stage.

"So it was you who killed Elder Mu Lei?" After Qing Jue stepped onto the stage, he looked at Ye Liuyun with an arrogant expression, as if he were looking down on Ye Liuyun.

Seeing the other party's arrogant demeanor, Ye Liuyun didn't want to answer. She just stared at Qing Jue with a sarcastic smile, which made Qing Jue furious.

"Damn it, Ancestor, can we begin yet?" Qing Jue asked angrily.

Seeing that this guy was getting angry so easily, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

"Sigh! Young people are just so impatient."

This made Qingjue even angrier.

Chapter 762 Emotional Manipulation (6000 words)

Ye Liuyun kept smiling as he looked at Qingjue, his eyes full of sarcasm and disdain. In short, no matter how angry you are, I will always have the same expression and attitude.

Most of the prodigies are used to being respected and held in high esteem in a certain environment. So when they suddenly encounter an opponent who doesn't take them seriously, they are bound to be very unhappy.

But why did Qing Jue seem so hostile or even irritable towards Ye Liuyun the moment he saw him? This shouldn't be the case. Even if one's mental state is bad, it shouldn't be this bad if one has cultivated to the peak of the Transformation Realm.

"Fellow Daoist Nine-Tailed, I think we can begin." Qingyu Heavenly God frowned when he saw Qingjue's impatience, but still told Nine-Tailed Heavenly God to begin.

The Nine-Tailed Demon God glanced at the obviously agitated Qing Jue, then gave Ye Liuyun a strange look, and finally nodded to her.

"Let's begin then."

With the Nine-Tailed Demon God agreeing to begin, Qing Jue couldn't wait to make his move.

"Sword, come!" Qing Jue shouted, raising his right hand. A large amount of azure light converged into his right palm, and a divine sword made entirely of energy landed in his hand. This must be the ability of his Azure Origin Sword Body.

Once he grasped the divine sword, it immediately unleashed a surge of sword light and sword energy, which spread rapidly toward Ye Liuyun's location like a storm.

This attack was clearly merciless, directly surpassing the Nascent Soul level and reaching the destructive power of the Nirvana Realm. It seems he was aiming for a decisive victory.

This is, after all, a confrontation between humans and demons, not a friendly sparring match. Only by defeating their target as quickly as possible can they demonstrate the power of the Azure Scale Holy Land.

As Ye Liuyun watched the azure storm sweep towards her, her eyes gradually sharpened. This azure storm, though called a storm, was actually composed of a large number of tiny azure sword energies. With such a large area of ​​attack, she had no way to dodge it.

The other Nascent Soul cultivators of the Fox Clan all showed expressions of horror after witnessing Qing Jue's attack.

"This move could easily kill an ordinary peak Nascent Soul stage demon cultivator. This human is very strong; I am no match for him," many fox clan prodigies couldn't help but say.

But just as the surging torrent of sword energy was about to engulf Ye Liuyun, a cold light flashed in Ye Liuyun's eyes, and nine fox tails radiating white light slowly rose behind him, quickly enveloping Ye Liuyun completely.

"Borrowing the power of heaven and earth, I condense the momentum of heaven and earth." Ye Liuyun murmured to himself. After he finished speaking, a strange power surged into Ye Liuyun's nine tails from all directions, and then burst out with pure white light.

At the same time, Qing Jue's attack struck Ye Liuyun's fox tail, but his powerful blow was like hitting a steel wall, sparking a lot of sparks.

Seeing this, Qing Jue's expression became uneasy. The power he was unleashing began to increase, and the impact of his sword energy surged.

However, no matter how much power he unleashed, he could not break through Ye Liuyun's defense.

"As expected, she has the bloodline of the Nine-Tailed Fox. But what methods did this little girl use? She's only at the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm, yet she was able to block Qing Jue's attack, which surpasses the Transformation Realm. Could it be some kind of fox clan demon technique?" Qingyu Heavenly God couldn't understand what was going on.

This is no ordinary secret technique; it is the power of the Celestial Fox, named Li Tian. It is a defensive method that connects with the power of heaven and earth, creating a natural barrier and forming an invisible spatial barrier around oneself.

The power of the Azure Decree did not touch Ye Liuyun, but instead struck the spatial barrier of an independent world.

This move requires a soul strength that reaches the Nirvana level to be used. After use, it can isolate attacks from cultivators below the Reincarnation Realm for five minutes, and can be considered a kind of spatial defense.

Just to avoid making the move seem too exaggerated, Ye Liuyun pretended to release nine tails to wrap around himself, in order to fool the human and demon cultivators present.

"Li Tian, ​​you've mastered the power of heaven and earth so quickly?" The Heavenly Fox Fairy, who was secretly watching Ye Liuyun's battle, said with a smile.

Qing Jue's attack continued. If it were anyone else, they would be considered remarkable if they could withstand it for even a minute. However, three minutes passed, and Ye Liuyun's defense remained unbreakable, which shocked the cultivators of Qinglin Holy Land more and more.

Because they were very clear about Qingjue's combat strength.

"How is this possible? Even a Nirvana-level cultivator in the Holy Land would find it difficult to withstand Qing Jue's attack. It's not that this girl might have Nirvana-level soul power, but how can her defense also reach the Nirvana level?" Some elders were unsettled.

However, Qingyu and the others quickly figured out the trick to this move.

"The power of heaven and earth? Even with the bloodline of a nine-tailed fox, how could she, a mere cultivator at the Transformation Realm, wield such methods? In that case, Qing Jue's attack is destined to be ineffective. It seems we underestimated the fox clan of Qingqiu Kingdom. However, according to our investigation in the Qinglin Holy Land, there shouldn't be any young cultivators of this strength among the fox clan this generation. Where did this nine-tailed bloodline come from?" Qingyu Heavenly God's gaze was solemn as she secretly spoke with the Qinglin Holy Lord, because she felt that the matter was becoming somewhat troublesome.

Moreover, their Qinglin Holy Land might suffer a setback, so she had to be mentally prepared for failure.

"Why can't I break it? What the hell?" Qing Jue was anxious, but he knew very well that continuing to unleash this powerful move would only waste his energy, so he decided to give up on this move.

However, just as he was about to stop, Ye Liuyun realized his intention. She suddenly turned from passive to active, and her nine tails, like blooming peach blossoms, suddenly attacked. She pierced through Qing Jue's sword energy in one breath, and the nine tails, like spears, stabbed towards Qing Jue at the same time.

Qing Jue's expression changed, and he realized he was in trouble. He could no longer stop the collapse of the attack, nor could he dodge it. He could only take the blow head-on.

Ye Liuyun's attacks struck his magical defense from all directions, and now it was his turn to defend passively.

The nine tails caused his magical defenses to flicker with energy, somewhat like a modern electric drill.

"Hehe, have you had enough? It's time for you to experience my attack." Ye Liuyun's face was full of amusement.

Ye Liuyun in her fox form is quite playful; in fact, it wouldn't be difficult for her to defeat this guy.

After withstanding Ye Liuyun's attack, Qingjue discovered that the opponent's attack power was not strong.

Ye Liuyun's attack landed on his defense without even a hint of piercing it, indicating that the opponent's attack was insufficient to break through his defense.

"Hmph! As expected, you only have the power of the seventh or eighth level of the Nascent Soul realm. Although I don't know how you managed to defend yourself just now, I don't believe you can use that kind of power indefinitely." Qing Jue snorted coldly, and at the same time, a devastating sword aura erupted from his hands and body.

The sword energy spread in all directions, and Ye Liuyun's nine tails, formed from concentrated power, were instantly cut into dozens of pieces by the cyan sword light.

Ye Liuyun's technique was broken, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Wow, not bad strength." Ye Liuyun wasn't surprised at all that his opponent had broken through his attack.

Her tone only fueled Qingjue's anger.

As a sword cultivator, these sword techniques are only auxiliary attacks. His real strength lies in close-range attacks. After breaking through Ye Liuyun's attack, she transformed into a rainbow and arrived in front of Ye Liuyun.

He swiftly swung his weapon to attack Ye Liuyun, but Ye Liuyun moved like a ghost, and no matter how Qing Jue attacked, he could only hit her afterimage.
