Chapter 227: Demonic Fox Ruoyan

Each demonic beast tribe had its own talents. Some were talents of their race, while others had bloodline talents. The silver fox tribe had the latter.

The Immortal Fox Contract was something that any member of the silver fox tribe would obtain naturally once they reached the transformation period. This was a very miraculous ability. It was also the reason why members of the silver fox tribe frequently appeared beside cultivators.

However, some of these contracts were forced upon them, even as transactions. The silver fox tribe usually did not allow such situations to occur. Chen Jingzhai never expected that the Venerable Heavenly Fox would actually bring it up.

“I already have a wife. So the Immortal Fox Contract will most likely be off the table,” replied Chen Jingzhai as he shook his head.

“The Immortal Fox Contract will not bind you. So why do you refuse?” asked the Venerable Heavenly Fox indifferently. “She will definitely be following you. Even if you give her the Icy Blue Silver Eyes, she will still follow you.”

“You are a Venerable. Why are you making things difficult for a junior like me?” asked Chen Jingzhai helplessly.

“Who asked you to obtain the Icy Blue Silver Eyes of the Silver Fox King?” replied the Venerable Heavenly Fox with a gentle smile. “This is karma. This is also your fate with Ruoyan. That is how things are!”

As she said this, the aura she emanated from her entire body held Chen Jingzhai in place.

It seemed as though if Chen Jingzhai did not agree to this, she would directly strike him as fast as lightning.

This caused Chen Jingzhai to tense up. Even though he knew that this was just to threaten and coerce him, he did not dare to bet against it. In the end, he could only nod his head helplessly with a stiff expression.

“Slave Tu Ruoyan greets master!” said the transformed silver fox with a smile as she hugged Chen Jingzhai’s arm.

A sensual aroma filled Chen Jingzhai’s nostrils. He could even feel the softness of her body. He endured the heat coming from his heart. He saluted the Venerable Heavenly Fox with his fists and then left with his group.

The Venerable Heavenly Fox did not bother him anymore. With a wave of her hand, a large number of demonic foxes retreated. In a short time, the forest returned to its original calm state. The Venerable Heavenly Fox also returned to their tribe’s territory with several demonic foxes beside her.

“Venerable, why do you look so highly upon this person?” asked the Silver Fox King.

“What is your opinion on Fuyunzi?” asked the Venerable Heavenly Fox instead of answering.

“He is the strongest person in the Luo Yun Immortal Sect’s hidden branch. Therefore, there is a chance that he might reach the highest level,” replied the Silver Fox King.

“Anyone who catches the eye of Fuyunzi is worth betting on,” replied the Venerable Heavenly Fox nonchalantly. “The old fart appears reckless, but he has something up his sleeve. The others can not compare to him.”

When the Silver Fox King heard her say this, the former fell into deep thought and did not inquire further.

Tu Ruoyan was merely a transformed silver fox from a small branch of the tribe. It was befitting of her to be a chess piece.

It was just that the Silver Fox King had not expected the Venerable Heavenly Fox to appear in person to settle this matter.

In the forest, Chen Jingzhai’s group continued advancing. However, they could not speed up.

The crowd had their gazes locked on the silver fox. Some were secretly pouting while others were in awe of her.

“Can you let go of me, please?” requested Chen Jingzhai helplessly.

“I don’t want to,” said Tu Ruoyan with a smile. “I’m afraid that master will run off once I let go.”

“In the Southern Woods Ocean, even if I run off, you can still find me.” Chen Jingzhai was speechless.

“Master, do you not like me?” asked Tu Ruoyan, feeling wronged.

“You are putting me in a tight spot,” replied Chen Jingzhai as he tried to pull his arm away from her embrace. “Since you are following me, you need to obey me. Otherwise, not only will you not get what you want, I might even chase you away.”

“Understood!” replied Tu Ruoyan as her expression darkened slightly. She let go of Chen Jingzhai’s arm and no longer pulled on his clothes.

“Speed up!” said Chen Jingzhai indifferently.

The group immediately sped up. Even though all of them kept quiet and didn’t communicate with each other, they traveled while maintaining a unique formation.

Tu Ruoyan also flew. Like Chen Jingzhai, she turned her robes black.

Any exposed skin was covered. Her entire person was hidden by the black robe.

She followed beside Chen Jingzhai at a steady pace, not more than ten feet away from him.

Initially, Chen Jingzhai thought that he had obtained additional baggage. But, to his surprise, Tu Ruoyan actually actively participated in battles. Claiming to be Chen Jingzhai’s follower, she hunted down other tribes mercilessly.

Just like that, the group accepted her existence, including Chen Jingzhai.

It was just that this demonic fox was only passionate about Chen Jingzhai and only talked to him.

She completely ignored the commands of others.

The look on her face when she saw but ignored the rest of the group made the others gnash their teeth, but they could not do anything about it.

Chen Jingzhai wanted to keep her away from the tower multiple times. This demonic fox would then look at him with teary eyes. Combined with her natural whims, this caused Chen Jingzhai to be unable to handle her.

The battles that followed were cruel and merciless. Chen Jingzhai did not have time to think about all this.

Not all tribes were that easy to negotiate with, especially since Chen Jingzhai’s group had a demonic fox. The other demonic beasts seemed to go mad and frenziedly attacked their group.

Essentially, they had to fight while they escaped each time, using the shortest amount of time to escape the territories of various tribes.

“Why are they so insistent on coming after you?” Chen Jingzhai asked the demonic fox.

“I do not know!” replied Tu Ruoyan innocently. “Maybe they have a score to settle with my tribe?”

Chen Jingzhai was speechless as the corner of his mouth twitched twice. He then asked, “Are you really not entering the tower?”

“I only wish to stay by your side,” answered Tu Ruoyan softly.

As per Chen Jingzhai’s request, she changed the way she called him. But, besides that, she did not change anything about the way she talked.

“I hope you have considered it carefully,” said Chen Jingzhai indifferently. “We are not far from the edge of the Southern Woods Ocean. Once we get out of here, we will meet powerful figures from my sect. If they kill you with a single palm strike…”

“I will not blame you,” replied Tu Ruoyan with a smile. “Moreover, I am your maidservant. Why will the elders of the sect kill me? Young Master, you sure know how to scare people.”

“You are not human,” said Chen Jingzhai as his smile disappeared from his face.

“Young Master!” said Tu Ruoyan as she looked at him resentfully. Her voice was flirty.

Three sword branch disciples who were nearby had goosebumps.

Since Tu Ruoyan joined them, the group atmosphere had been very off.

The members of the group rarely spoke, communicating through transmitted thoughts instead.

Most of the time, they were observing Tu Ruoyan’s performance. Even the female cultivators from the Soaring Clouds Clan were no exception. Everyone was secretly discussing Tu Ruoyan’s performance.

Regardless of what Tu Ruoyan was thinking or what scheme the silver fox tribe had, they could only accept it at this point. Even when Tu Ruoyan caused them more trouble, they did not grumble.

Since they could not afford to offend her, they could not do anything else. So that was how things were.

There was also another reason. Currently, the essence power of heavens and earth was shockingly rich here. It was already more than ten times that of when they first entered the Southern Woods Ocean. Even the Foundation Establishment Plane disciples were seizing every waking moment to cultivate.

Chen Jingzhai had already gotten used to Tu Ruoyan’s coquetry. He was feeling tired from fighting nonstop throughout this journey. He relaxed a little when he listened to the voice of this demonic fox once in a while.

Her voice was more useful than any music in soothing his nerves. Moreover, the aroma that she emanated naturally could relieve his fatigue. Therefore, Chen Jingzhai was unable to reject this clingy lady.

After resting for two hours, the group continued their journey.

With their current speed, the distance they had traversed was already that of three to four Pulao Kingdoms. They were astonished by how vast this region was. Therefore, they utilized the different demonic beast tribes to identify their coordinates. Otherwise, they would most likely have gotten lost in this expansive place.

The Southern Woods Ocean was way too dangerous.

If it weren’t for the fact that Chen Jingzhai had the Reversed Formation and was a formation master, they would not have had the time to rest safely like this. Now that they also had the Illusion Light Rat, Ni Honger, and the silver fox, Tu Ruoyan, the group actually benefited from their presence.

“Young Master, we are about to reach Fascination’s End. The place is occupied by a conspiracy of red-eye ravens, which are most evil and cunning. Getting past there will most likely not be easy,” said Ni Honger as she stood on Chen Jingzhai’s shoulder.

She paid no heed to Tu Ruoyan, as though the latter didn’t exist.

This was the first time Ni Honger emerged from Chen Jingzhai’s Beast-Taming Card ever since she was humiliated by Tu Ruoyan using the illusion technique.

“Fascination’s End?” asked Chen Jingzhai as he narrowed his eyes slightly.

Tu Ruoyan warned him, saying, “Fascination’s End is a gigantic canyon in the Southern Woods Ocean. It is not far from Pulao Territory. The canyon is mysterious. Only the Venerable Plane cultivators know what is hidden at the bottom of it. If you want to fly across the canyon, you have to be careful of the magnetic power coming from the walls on both sides of the canyon. Young Master, it’s advisable for you to keep your sword away. Otherwise, it might be pulled away by the magnetic power.”

Fascination’s End was a renowned location in the Southern Woods Ocean.

There were various kinds of ores here, as well as spiritual herbs that grew on the cliff walls. It was full of resources.

However, the red-eye ravens had occupied the area. Therefore, the cultivators would have a tough time trying to obtain anything there.

Although the red-eye ravens were a Grade 3 demonic beast tribe, they chose not to transform into human form.

The most powerful member of their tribe was the raven king, a Grade 4 demonic beast. His body was 12 feet tall, and he was very ferocious.
