During the Sui and Tang dynasties, family status was the most important. At that time, the five noblest clans in the world were known as the Five Surnames, all of which had been famous for hundreds of years. With such high family status, even the nobles could only sigh and say, "My only regret in this life is not being able to marry a woman of the Five Surnames!"
If the demon race were to imitate the human race into the Five Surnames, then the Qing Qiu Hu would definitely be one of them. Foxes were born with intelligence and were the easiest to cultivate into a demon body. The Qing Qiu Hu inherited the Celestial Fox's Will Manipulation from Daji, a demon fox who brought disaster to the world. It was a rare lost art of the demon race. Therefore, the Qing Qiu Hu had produced many demon talents for thousands of years, and there were even a few demon kings who dominated the world.
Now, this demon race's thousand-year-old distinguished clan had only lifted a small part of its veil, and it was enough to shock Ying Feiyang.
"This is a grotto-heaven!" Ying Feiyang exclaimed. A grotto-heaven was the best place for cultivation where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was concentrated. It was difficult for ordinary small sects to find a place to establish their sect. But now, it was just a small courtyard of the Qing Qiu Hu tribe, and it openly occupied the grotto-heaven that ordinary sects could only dream of.
While he was still in shock, the vermillion door suddenly opened, and a short and thin elder appeared in front of him in a flash. He said in a low voice, "Who dares to trespass the Spirit Fox Manor?"
The elder was dressed like a servant, and his stooped body looked like it would be blown away by the wind, but his aura was calm and steady. Ying Feiyang could not see through him for a moment. Such a demon with extraordinary cultivation was actually a servant. Ying Feiyang could not help but admire the deep foundation of the Qing Qiu Hu tribe.
Suddenly, Ying Feiyang smelled a faint smell of blood, and he immediately became alert, "This demon is a man-eating demon who cultivates the Bloody Massacre Path!"
Daemons were divided into the Blood Slaughter Sect and the Heaven Splendour Path. The daemons of the Heaven Splendour Path drew on the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. Their cultivation method was similar to that of human cultivators of the Heaven Splendour Path. Thus, the daemon aura on their bodies was not obvious. Unless they deliberately used a technique to test it, it would be difficult to distinguish them with just their eyes. The Blood Slaughter Sect, on the other hand, always carried a bloody demonic aura on their bodies. Although the higher one's cultivation, the thinner the bloody demonic aura would be, if one wanted to completely conceal their demonic aura, they would need to have the strength of the four great Daemon Kings.
Sensing the demonic aura, Ying Feiyang instinctively put his hand on the hilt of his sword. However, he saw the old servant also become alert. Squinting his old eyes, he glanced at Ji Yaoyue and Ying Feiyang, and asked doubtfully, "A female demon and a Heaven Splendour Path cultivator, what business do you have in Spirit Fox Manor?"
Ying Feiyang slightly restrained his hostility, and handed over Mu Zixuan's name card, saying, "I am from Si Tiantai, and I'm here to hand over a name card on behalf of my Ling Tai Lang, Mu Zixuan, Lord Mu. My lord will be paying you a visit tomorrow, I wonder if your master is free?"
The old servant looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Please wait here for a moment, I'll inform my master. As soon as he finished speaking, a voice was heard, "There's no need to inform them. Old Shi, please invite the two guests in."
The old servant made a sound of acknowledgment, and invited the two in. However, they did not walk in the direction of the main hall. Instead, they walked along a small path, passed by a painted bridge, and walked all the way to the side courtyard. Faint noises could be heard coming from the side courtyard, and it destroyed the tranquility of the manor.
As soon as they stepped into the side courtyard, they saw a black mass of objects flying through the air. It was extremely fast, and it went straight for Ying Feiyang's face. Ying Feiyang was already on guard, and at this moment, he only thought that it was a hidden weapon. Without thinking too much, he pulled out his sword, and with a flash of his sword, the object was cut in half.
However, he heard a clear and childish cry, "My ju!" He saw a child with braids facing up to the sky, hugging two pieces of leather with heartache, and was about to cry.
"So they're playing Cuju." Ying Feiyang suddenly understood. Back then, the game of Cuju was quite popular. From wealthy families to the countryside, there was no lack of people who gathered together to play football. Although Ying Feiyang had never played it before, he often saw the children of Qinghe Town, led by Mu Xiaomei, chasing after the ball made of vines. Everywhere they passed, there was chaos. However, the game of the wealthy families was much more elegant. The ball itself was an inflatable balloon wrapped in leather, and its elasticity and toughness far exceeded that of a solid ball. An ordinary family might not even be able to afford a ball even if they didn't eat or drink for a year.
At this moment, he looked to the side, and there was a young man in fresh clothes standing to the side, wiping his sweat. It was Hu Li, whom he had met once at the Luoyang Flower Festival.
When Hu Li saw Ying Feiyang, he was slightly surprised and said, "I just thought it was a servant who came to pass on a message. I didn't expect it to be Brother Ying. It was impolite of me to receive you here." At the same time, he looked at Ji Yaoyue and said happily, "Miss Yue 'er is here too. That's even better. I have some freshly brewed Osmanthus wine. If the two of you don't mind, please follow me to the palace and have a few cups."
As he spoke, he placed his hands on Ji Yaoyue's shoulders. Ji Yaoyue frowned slightly, showing a look of disgust. Her figure flashed, and in the next moment, she appeared a few steps away. She said, "Sister said that although the Sky Incense Valley is cooperating with you, this matter is no longer part of our cooperation. Si Tiantai's people came looking for you, and we have no need to cover for you. I hope that Second Young Master Hu will not blame us."
Hu Li's palm hit empty air, but he didn't care. Instead, he praised, "Good girl, your movements are getting better and better." He then waved his hand and said, "Incense Lord Ji is thinking too much. He's just introducing me to a friend. Why would I blame him? Besides, the Spirit Fox Manor is not a secret place. If Si Tiantai wanted to find him, how could he not find him?"
After that, he looked at Ying Feiyang and said, "I only heard that Brother Ying had a big fight with your Lord Mu in front of the White Horse Temple yesterday. How did he become Si Tiantai's man today?"
Ying Feiyang smiled and said, "What's so strange about that? Brother Mu and I didn't get to know each other without a fight. He invited me to drink a few cups, and I ran some errands for him. That's all. Now that I've conveyed the message, I don't dare to disturb you. I'll take my leave first. " Ying Feiyang didn't have a good impression of the Hu family because of his relationship with Hu Bugui. Now that he sensed the other party's intention to test him, he was impatient. He wanted to go back as soon as possible and let Mu Zixuan deal with this scheming matter tomorrow.
But he heard a crisp voice saying, "No, even if you want to leave, you must first return my bow to me." It was the child, who was so angry that he puffed up his cheeks and said.
Hu Li helplessly coaxed him, "Shiyi, don't mess around. There are many Ju 'er in the house. Just take one more to play with. Don't be rude and make others laugh at you."
Hu Li tried to persuade him for a long time, but the child shook his body and refused to listen. Finally, he pointed his tender little finger at Ji Yaoyue and said, "I don't care. If you don't compensate my Ju 'er, then let this beautiful sister stay and play with me."
Hu Li's eyes brightened. He stopped trying to persuade him and praised, "Good boy! You have the root of wisdom! " Then he put on a helpless expression and said, "Miss Yue 'er, I'm sorry. My family's Shiyi is angry. No matter how you coax him, he won't listen. Why don't the two of you stay here for the night and leave tomorrow."
Ji Yaoyue's pretty face turned cold. She pointed at Ying Feiyang and said, "He broke your ball. What does that have to do with me? Hey, you over there. You should take responsibility for your actions. Don't implicate me."
Ying Feiyang was in a dilemma. He only had the clothes that Princess Yu Zhen gave him that were worth a bit of money. He didn't have much spare money. He couldn't afford to compensate for a precious inflatable ball. But if he reneged on his debt with a child, he couldn't bring himself to do it. He suddenly felt that a hero was stumped by a single coin.
Fortunately, the child clapped his hands and said, "Looks like you can't afford it. How about this? We'll make a bet. You two play with me. If you can beat me and Second Brother, I won't need you to compensate me. Otherwise, this sister will have to stay and play with me."
Ying Feiyang heard this and felt relieved. He couldn't tell how strong Hu Li was. But looking at the sweat on his forehead, he knew that his body was weak and his abilities were limited. As for that 'Shiyi', he was still a child. If he and Ji Yaoyue worked together to deal with these two, their chances of winning were high. He then looked at Ji Yaoyue as if asking for help.
Ji Yaoyue also knew that if they continued to pester him, there would be no end to it. She sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, I'll play with you for a while. We'll decide the winner within five balls."
