Hu Linglong was in a fit of anger and did not notice the group of people from Cang Du standing at the side, not to mention the veiled Yun Sheng.
Yun Sheng blended into the crowd and secretly paid attention to Hu Linglong's every move.
Yun Sheng remembered that Hu Linglong was Hu Sheng's cousin, but this woman had a vicious heart. Back then, it was Hu Linglong who colluded with Madam Chi Bi and sold Hu Sheng to the Boundless Land.
If not for the fact that Yun Sheng happened to also be at the auction, Hu Sheng would have been bought by someone long ago.
However, Hu Sheng also said that if she died, Hu Linglong should be the most suitable candidate for the Saintess of the Celestial Fox People.
Unexpectedly, Hu Linglong had not become the Saintess even though Hu Sheng had been dead for a few years. Not only that, she even had to compete for the position of Saintess with the beastmen. This was undoubtedly a humiliation to the proud and arrogant Hu Linglong.
According to the rules of the Celestial Fox People, a new Saintess could only be elected when the previous Saintess died or went missing for more than three years.
Hu Linglong had heard that Hu Sheng's whereabouts were unknown in the Boundless Land.
She originally thought that after Hu Sheng went missing, she would be able to take the position of Saintess.
A few days ago, she heard that the various capital cities had selected many mixed-blood Celestial Fox people to participate in the selection of Saintess this time.
She originally thought that the Celestial Fox Elders Guild would dare to do it, but who knew that the group of old fellows in the Guild of Elders Guild actually said that they would broaden the scope of the selection of Saintess and open it to the entire Celestial Fox tribe. Even the beastmen could participate.
"Get lost." Hu Linglong was about to register her name when a beastman woman blocked her way. Hu Linglong was furious and cast a spell on the beastman woman's face.
"Ah …" The beastman woman screamed as a piece of flesh was torn off her face. Instantly, blood and flesh flowed out, making her look very miserable.
"Lady Linglong, this is an order from the Elder's Assembly. Please cooperate with us. If you injure anyone again, we can only cancel your registration. This is an order from the Elder's Assembly. Please don't make things difficult for your subordinates." The Sky Fox clansman in charge of the Life Saving Pill felt a headache coming on when he saw Hu Linglong.
Although the previous Saintess, Hu, was a good-for-nothing, at least, she treated people well.
In comparison, although Hu Sheng's cousin, Hu Linglong, was quite strong and had reached the level of a Saint-level Law Emperor in the past few years, she was known for her arrogance and willfulness in the Heavenly Fox Tribe.
Because her father was the Fifth Elder of Celestial Fox, no one of the tribesmen in the tribe dared to offend her.
Although Hu Linglong was very dissatisfied, when she heard that it was an order from the Elders Guild, she could not flare up again.
Those old fellows in the Guild of Elders had the support of Clan Head Hu Qianqiu. Even her father could not do anything.
Hu Linglong angrily reported her name and left.
When she returned home, she could not help but look for her father.
"Father, what's going on? How come those assassins we sent out could not even deal with a few women? Now, even beastmen can participate. How am I supposed to face others in the future? "Hu Linglong had always been the target of ridicule among the descendants of the Eight Desolation Tribe.
If the other tribes knew that even beastmen could participate in the Saintess of the Celestial Fox People, even if she was chosen as the Saintess in the future, she would definitely be laughed at.
"Linglong, this matter is quite strange. Lei Mo and his men actually failed. "Hu Linglong's father, who was also Hu Qianqiu's younger brother, Hu Qiansui.
Earlier, the ones who hired Lei Mo and the others to assassinate the Saintess candidates were precisely this vicious Celestial Fox father and daughter.
Seeing his daughter's angry face, he tried to persuade her.
"The Guild of Elders did this because you did not find the Celestial Fox Relic. That's why people in the tribe said that you are not qualified to become the Saintess of the Celestial Fox Saintess."
Hearing her father mention the Celestial Fox Relic, Hu Linglong's face became awkward.
Hu Qiansui was a very ambitious person. Back then, because he was a bastard son, he was not able to become the Clan Head of the Celestial Fox People. He had always been brooding over this matter.
Even the heavens wanted to help him. Hu Qianqiu did not have many children. The only daughter who was tested to be the successor of the Celestial Fox Saintess was a trash who did not know any magic.
On the other hand, Hu Qiansui's daughter, Hu Linglong, had been intelligent and beautiful since she was young. If it weren't for the fact that Hu Sheng was the clan leader's daughter, she wouldn't have had a chance to become the Saintess of the Heavenly Fox Clan.
Every time Hu Qiansui thought of this, he would be secretly angry.
All these years, on the surface, he had been pandering to Hu Qianqiu and the Guild of Elders, but secretly, he had been doing something.
Other than allowing his daughter to secretly suppress and bully Hu Sheng, he had also been trying to rope in the Guild of Elders. His goal was to wait for the right opportunity to replace Hu Qianqiu and become the Clan Head of the Celestial Fox People.
Among them, he had his daughter trick Hu Sheng and banish her from the Eight Desolates Continent. His daughter would replace her and become the new Celestial Fox Saintess. This was the first step of Hu Qiansui's plan.
Hu Qiansui and his daughter had been painstakingly planning for many years and finally got rid of the thorn in their side, Hu Sheng.
He even bribed an Elder to recommend Hu Linglong to replace Hu Sheng in the Dutian Blood Realm and search for the Beast King Relic with the other descendants of the Eight Desolates.
But who would have thought that Hu Linglong would not be able to find the Celestial Fox Relic at such a critical juncture.
The loss of the Celestial Fox Relic had been criticized by the other Elders of the Guild of Elders. When the time came for the new Saintess, the Elders unexpectedly proposed to hold the Saintess Selection Ceremony for the first time.
Hu Qiansui knew that he was in the wrong because of the Relic and could only vote in favor.
"Linglong, don't be anxious. What is yours will be yours. Looking at the entire Celestial Fox Tribe, in terms of bloodline, appearance, and talent, no one is more suitable than you to be the Saintess. Don't worry, in this Selection Ceremony, I will definitely let you take first place. At that time, let's see if anyone dares to say that you are not qualified to be the Saintess. "Hu Qiansui comforted his daughter.
So many things had happened in the middle of the Celestial Fox Saintess Selection this time. Even the mixed blood Celestial Fox had joined in. But this also had its benefits. With Hu Linglong's purebred status and outstanding talent, she would definitely be able to become the Saintess of the Celestial Fox Saintess.
"Father, I naturally have confidence in the Saintess matter. I also have something to ask you, and that is the matter of the Nine Luan Clan's young leader. I heard that when grandfather was still in power, he had made an agreement with the Nine Luan Clan's old leader that the Saintess and the young leader of the two clans would become husband and wife once they reached adulthood. Is this true? "Hu Linglong would only put away her unruly temper when talking about her crush, Lü.
"That's right. There was such an agreement between the old leaders of the two clans. But according to the agreement, only the Saintess of the Celestial Fox Saintess can marry the young leader of the Nine Luan Clan." Hu Qiansui had long since known that his daughter had been in love with Lü Xinyi of the Nine Luan Clan.
