“Ah Li, I truly believe we should sever all ties with this White Robe Star Venerate! He’s utterly lawless and reckless! He’s bound to bring catastrophic disaster upon us!”
Ah Li shook her head. “I don’t see it that way. I intend to seek him out.”
The Grey-robed Old Woman quickly interjected, “Absolutely not! You can never truly know a person’s heart! You mustn’t go near him!”
Ah Li reassured them, “Elders, please don’t worry. I’ll be fine. Even if he is a Myriad Phase Realm expert, I can still escape his grasp.”
A Black-robed Middle-aged Man offered, “I, for one, believe Ah Li could discreetly approach him and gauge his true strength. With our clan’s supreme secret arts, he wouldn’t be able to harm Ah Li in the slightest.”
Several other elders nodded in agreement.
Ah Li made her preparations, her hands weaving intricate Spirit Arts.
A surge of profound Spatial Power erupted. With a boom, she traversed the Starry Sky, arriving in a distant, uncharted region.
Simultaneously, the other experts of the Supreme Fox Clan vanished, following Ah Li.
They concealed themselves in the shadows, ready to protect Ah Li.
Should the White Robe Star Venerate make any untoward move, they would immediately intervene to suppress him!
Moments later, Ah Li’s soft voice echoed in Lu Xuan’s ears. “White Robe Star Venerate, I am Ah Li of the Supreme Fox Clan. Would you grant me the honor of a meeting?”
Lu Xuan frowned slightly. After a brief hesitation, he lazily rose, traversing the void towards the Starry Sky coordinates Ah Li had marked.
After all, Xiao Yin constantly spoke of finding her sister, Ah Li.
He was curious to see who this Ah Li truly was.
With a boom, Lu Xuan’s figure vanished, reappearing instantly where Ah Li stood.
Before him stood a young woman, graceful in a stunningly beautiful pink gown. Her exquisite face was flawlessly delicate, her skin so fair it seemed it would break at a touch. A faint, alluring fragrance wafted from her, detectable even from a distance. Her Jade Legs were perfectly sculpted, made even more captivating by the pink dress, tempting one to take a bite.
“Not bad,” Lu Xuan mused internally.
Ah Li met Lu Xuan’s gaze without feeling offended.
For she, too, believed no one in the world could resist her stunning beauty and charm.
However, if it had been anyone else scrutinizing her like that, she wouldn’t have been so polite.
Lu Xuan remained where he was, not moving closer.
Ah Li bit her delicate lip and walked towards Lu Xuan, getting straight to the point. “White Robe Star Venerate, I am Xiao Yin’s sister, Ah Li.”
“I’ve heard of you,” Lu Xuan replied indifferently.
Ah Li seemed slightly surprised and pleased. “Xiao Yin mentioned me?”
Lu Xuan nodded.
Ah Li asked, “What are your thoughts on my Supreme Fox Clan?”
“No thoughts,” Lu Xuan stated.
Xiao Yin had spoken of some past events concerning the Supreme Fox Clan. But Lu Xuan had no particular opinion. Ah Li wasn’t his disciple; what did her ambition to restore the Fox Clan have to do with him? Was her stunning beauty enough? He didn’t think so! His eldest disciple, Ji Fuyao, and his fourth disciple, Baili, possessed divine grace that could easily rival Ah Li’s. They were certainly not inferior.
Ah Li felt a flicker of surprise. She had expected the White Robe Star Venerate to show some passion or interest, but he appeared utterly unbothered.
Ah Li gritted her teeth and asked, “If possible, when I eventually activate the Fox Fortune Holy Land, I would appreciate your discreet assistance.”
Lu Xuan directly shook his head. “No interest.” What did that have to do with him?
Ah Li was stunned. She hadn’t expected Lu Xuan to refuse her outright! Shock!
After a moment of silence, Lu Xuan suddenly spoke. “Oh, right. Xiao Yin asked me to find you. Since you’re here, I’ll call her over.”
“No! Don’t!” Ah Li quickly waved her delicate hands.
Lu Xuan frowned slightly.
Ah Li explained, “She’s safe with you now. I don’t want her getting embroiled in the troubles of my Fox Clan. Once I activate the Fox Fortune Holy Land, the commotion it will cause will be no less than when you shattered the Fourth Star Ring.”
Lu Xuan remained silent.
Ah Li continued, “Please, let Xiao Yin remain with you.”
Lu Xuan nodded.
Ah Li said, “Thank you for looking after Xiao Yin during this time. If there’s anything you wish for me to do, I will certainly fulfill it.”
Lu Xuan’s lips curved into a faint smile. After a moment, he said, “Manifest your True Body. I want to see it.”
Ah Li was taken aback, surprised by this unexpected request!
With a boom, she gritted her teeth. Her will shifted, and a massive fox True Body appeared before Lu Xuan. Unlike Xiao Mo, Ah Li’s fur was a vibrant, tender pink, like burning flames, incredibly smooth and delicate. Her tails swayed continuously, exuding an enchanting allure. She now possessed three tails, with a fourth rapidly taking shape! Her eyes gleamed like blood amber, and the Ancient Ancestor’s bloodline power surged within her inner world, transforming her entire aura.
Lu Xuan couldn’t resist reaching out to stroke Ah Li’s tail. It was incredibly soft, silky smooth, and felt wonderfully satisfying.
“Ah…” Suddenly, Ah Li let out a soft gasp, instantly reverting to her human form. Her face flushed slightly as she looked at Lu Xuan. “You…”
Lu Xuan’s expression remained calm and unbothered. “Just a touch, no need to panic.”
Ah Li was speechless.
Suddenly, a Grey-robed Old Woman, who had been hidden in the shadows, rose into the air, her voice filled with rage. “White Robe Star Venerate, you’ve gone too far! The fox tail is a private part of our Supreme Fox Clan! Are you mocking Ah Li, acting as if we don’t exist…?”
Before she could finish, Lu Xuan simply slapped. CRACK! A terrifying, unparalleled force transformed into a torrent, shooting forth! The Grey-robed Old Woman was instantly sent flying tens of thousands of feet away! PFFT! She spat out a mouthful of essence blood, crashing heavily onto a desolate star, which instantly shattered into countless fragments! She was gravely wounded.
The next instant, just as the Grey-robed Old Woman tried to rise, Lu Xuan’s figure appeared directly above her head. BOOM! Lu Xuan stomped his foot squarely on the old woman’s face, grinding it into the debris. He spoke indifferently, “I only came here out of respect for Xiao Yin. Don’t you dare come here ordering me around! Understand?”
Ah Li was utterly dumbfounded. The numerous Fox Clan experts hidden in the shadows also emerged. They exchanged bewildered glances. This White Robe Star Venerate was too brutal, wasn’t he? He resorts to violence at the slightest disagreement?
After a moment of silence, Ah Li quickly stepped forward and tugged on Lu Xuan’s sleeve. “White Robe Star Venerate, please let this matter go. The elder meant no offense, she was merely worried about me.”
Just as the Grey-robed Old Woman was about to speak, an older man appeared behind her and clapped a hand over her mouth.
Lu Xuan remained silent.
The others repeatedly shot warning glances at the Grey-robed Old Woman. Damn it all! You absolutely cannot spout nonsense in front of the White Robe Supreme! This was the man who had shattered even an Ancient Ancestor’s Eye; he was not to be provoked! The Supreme Fox Clan already had enough enemies! If the White Robe Star Venerate also became their foe, it would be utterly terrifying!
Lu Xuan was amused by the scene.
A moment later, Lu Xuan slowly turned and departed. Ah Li reminded him, “White Robe Star Venerate, please don’t tell Xiao Yin I’m here.”
Lu Xuan nodded.
BOOM! Lu Xuan reappeared at Cloudrise Holy Land! RUMBLE, RUMBLE, RUMBLE! Divine radiance blazed across the sky here, the entire Cloudrise Realm torn apart, rapidly transforming into a desolate ruin.
Before long, Ji Fuyao, clad in a pink gown, her delicate feet treading upon an endless Sea of Spirit Fire, approached Lu Xuan. “Master.”
But as she reached him, her expression suddenly shifted. She caught the scent of another woman! An unfamiliar scent!
“Master!” Ji Fuyao grabbed Lu Xuan’s hand, her eyes flowing with divine radiance. “Master, what were you just doing with another woman?”
