The commotion finally ended with the departure of Gray Feather and the others from the Nine Phoenix Tribe.
Qian Lang did not suspect that the assassination was related to the Nine Phoenix Tribe. Yaoji and the others also did not pursue Yun Sheng's background.
After dawn, Qian Lang and the others searched along the burnt forest. Finally, they found Yun Sheng at the outermost edge of the forest.
When they found her, she looked embarrassed and said, "Haha, I was scared out of my wits when I saw the chaos, so I hid."
After returning, Yun Sheng could not avoid being criticized by Hua Yanluo, Qin Yue, and the others.
Feng Lian, on the other hand, stood to the side without saying anything. She only stared at the lake that had been burned dry. No one knew what she was thinking.
It was unknown whether it was because of the huge commotion caused by the Firebath Luan, or because the death of Scholar Lei Mo had scared the other group of assassins out of their wits. In any case, the rest of the journey was peaceful.
After a few days of hurrying, on the tenth day, Yun Sheng and the others finally arrived at the capital of the Celestial Fox Tribe, Hu City, under the escort of Qian Lang.
Hu City was the most prosperous capital in the territory of the Celestial Fox Tribe. It was an ancient capital with thousands of years of history.
The scenery in the capital was beautiful. The streets were paved with bluestone, and trees that were commonly seen in the north were planted along the streets. On the streets, people of Celestial Fox People and Celestial Fox mixed blood could be seen everywhere.
After escorting Feng Lian and the others into the city, Qian Lang and the others still had to stay in the city for a few days. Yun Sheng happened to be sightseeing in the city and asking about Hu Sheng's family.
"What a big house. Master, this place is many times bigger than Crescent Spring Town." Little Yingying was still dressed as a half-fox half-beast human.
After following Yun Sheng, Little Yingying drank a lot of treasures like the Water of Life. In addition to the good food, she had grown a lot recently. Her whole body was pink and tender, and she looked like a completely different person from the child who had been beaten before.
Today, she was also dressed as a mixed-blood Foxman. It had to be said that this outfit suited her very well. She looked lively and cute. Coupled with the fact that she was carrying a Kissing Goat in her hand, she attracted a lot of attention along the way.
"Little Ying Ying, in the future, Master will take you to see the imperial capital of another continent. That is the real big city." Yun Sheng patted Little Ying Ying's head.
Compared to the few Imperial Capitals of the Boundless Continent, the scale of the buildings and the number of people in the city paled in comparison.
Zhou State's Yujing was also much more prosperous than this place.
Apart from the Celestial Fox, which was the weakest tribe, it could be seen that the development of the Eight Wastelands Continent was much worse than that of the Boundless Continent.
It was no wonder that the Bhakra Orcs had been eyeing the Boundless World covetously.
Qian Lang first ordered some soldiers to send everyone's carriages and luggage to an inn in the city. Under Hua Yanluo's suggestion, he even brought them to the best restaurant in the city for a hearty meal.
"Little Brother, I heard that the Celestial Fox Tribe is holding a Saintess Selection Ceremony. May I know where to register?" Although Qian Lang had arrived in Hu City, he was not familiar with the place. He took out a gold coin and threw it to the waiter.
Yun Sheng's main purpose of coming to the Eight Wastelands Continent this time was to deliver Hu Sheng's ashes.
"Dear guests, are you all going to participate in the Saintess Selection Ceremony?" The waiter of the restaurant was very enthusiastic. During this period of time, there were many foreigners who came to Hu City.
Among them, most of the young and beautiful women were here to participate in the Saintess Selection Ceremony.
The waiter's eyes were very sharp. With one glance, he could tell that the female guests at this table were all rare beauties, except for one who was wearing a veil.
Even the youngest Celestial Fox Half-Beast girl was very pink and cute.
Speaking of the Celestial Fox Saintess Selection Ceremony this time, it was a grand event in Hu City. Under the influence of money, the waiter told them everything.
"Master, we also want to see the Saintess Selection Ceremony." Baby Sheep and Little Yingying heard this and also shouted.
"Don't make a fuss. The Saintess Selection Ceremony hasn't started yet. Registration is still in the next few days. There are too many people at the registration place. Neither of you are allowed to go," Yun Sheng said grumpily.
However, since she already knew the registration place of the Celestial Fox Saintess Selection Ceremony, Yun Sheng decided to go with Qian Lang and the others. Perhaps she could meet Hu Sheng's relatives at the Saintess Selection Ceremony.
"Master, can I go outside with Baby Sheep? I want to bring something back for Mom and Dad." Little Yingying's eyes were fixed on Hu City as soon as she entered.
She had been separated from her family for a long time and missed them very much. Therefore, she wanted to send something back to them.
Yun Sheng was very generous to Little Yingying as her master.
Little Yingying's little pouch now contained ten gold coins. This was definitely a huge sum of money for a child who was less than ten years old.
"Baby Sheep, you can walk around with Little Yingying." Yun Sheng thought to herself. Hu City seemed to be quite safe. She could take advantage of this time to see how the Celestial Fox Saintess Selection Ceremony was going. At the same time, she could also inquire about the Night Fox.
After Yun Sheng parted with Baby Sheep and Little Yingying, she followed Qian Lang and the others to the most lively square in Hu City.
The Celestial Fox Saintess Selection Ceremony was held in the largest square in Hu City. When Yun Sheng went to buy the tickets, she found that the scene was really as crowded as the waiter had said.
There were too many girls from different races who came from the various territories and towns of the Celestial Fox tribe.
However, Yun Sheng also noticed that about 50% of the Celestial Fox girls who came to register were purebred Celestial Fox. The other 50% were mixed-blood Celestial Fox like Qin Yue and Feng Lian.
It seemed that the assassination incident on the way here had affected the enthusiasm of the Saintess Selection Ceremony to a certain extent.
Other than Cang Du, many of the Saintesses who were selected from the capital city were also mixed-blood Celestial Fox.
These people were either young and beautiful, or sexy and voluptuous. They were definitely different from the Celestial Fox Saintess Hu Sheng whom Yun Sheng had met earlier.
These people were actually here to select the Saintess Selection Ceremony? Or were these people here to participate in the beauty pageant?
Yun Sheng was still thinking about it when she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her.
Yun Sheng hurriedly lowered her head and retreated to a corner.
A young girl in red rushed in angrily. She had charming eyes and peachy cheeks, and her figure was slim. When she rushed into the square, she was followed by many guards.
"What nonsense! Even half-beastmen came to participate in the Saintess Selection Ceremony. Didn't those old fellows from the Elder Council see this? How dare these people come to participate in the Saintess Selection Ceremony? I think they are not even fit to carry my shoes!" The young girl cursed as she walked. She was furious and ran to the registration area.
