"Linghu Yan … who are you?"
Tang Xiaoxi was stunned. She stood there with her mouth wide open, not knowing what to say.
Linghu Yan raised her head, her face full of smiles. Perhaps it was due to her excitement, but the three tails behind her swayed gently. She said, "You are a Nine-tailed Fairy Fox, and I am a Three-tailed Fox. We are originally of the same bloodline. Your nine-tailed body is a gift from the heavens, and it is also a gift from the heavens to our Fox Clan's King."
Lin Muyu explained from the side, "Generally speaking, Xiao Xi, it is not a bad thing for you to transform into a Nine-tailed Fairy Fox. You are fated to be the supreme ruler of the Demon Clan. I helped you make a deal with them. Xiao Xi, as long as you agree to give them a drop of blood, then you can become the ruler of the entire Demon Clan. Moreover, you can also obtain three incomplete cultivation scrolls of the Fire Fox Seal, which are the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth heavens: the Cosmic Star Seal, the Divine Punishment Seal, and the God Slaying Seal."
"What …"
Tang Xiaoxi was even more shocked. "Isn't the Fire Fox Seal only nine heavens? Then … there are three heavens … Heavens? This is something that even Grandfather doesn't know about … "
Qin Yin, on the other hand, had a worried look on her face as she stepped forward and held Lin Muyu's hand. She stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, "Big Brother Ah-Yu, those who are not of our clan are definitely not of the same mind. Could the Fox Clan be lying to us … Xiaoxi's safety is the most important thing. Big Brother Ah-Yu, you mustn't let Xiaoxi take risks!"
Lin Muyu nodded and patted Qin Yin's shoulder. "Don't worry, Xiao Yin. I know what I'm doing."
"Mm."
Tang Xiaoxi thought silently for a while and said, "The Cosmic Star Seal, the Divine Punishment Seal, and the God Slaying Seal couldn't be lying to me to go to the Fox Clan, right? Although I don't look like a human right now, I have a human heart … "
Lin Muyu held back her laughter and said, "I know these can't convince you. Then there's one more thing. After entering the Endless Forest, there's an Immortal Spring in the mountain behind the Demon Clan's headquarters. As long as Xiao Xi bathes in the spring, you can transform into your current form, allowing you to return to your human form, and from now on, you can freely return to your nine-tailed form. Are you willing?"
For Tang Xiaoxi, this was the most important thing!
After all, she had been a human for twenty years, and now she had suddenly turned into a nine-tailed demon fox. This change was too difficult for her to accept. Moreover, how could she continue to live a normal life in this form? In order to hide her nine tails, she had to wear this thick robe for many days. She could no longer wear the beautiful clothes of the Empire.
"Alright then …" She nodded in agreement.
Saintess Linghu Yan was overjoyed. She hurriedly knelt down again and said, "Many thanks for Your Highness' gift. The Demon Clan can rise again. This is great! We don't have to be bullied anymore!"
Lin Muyu raised her eyebrows and said, "If Xiao Xi becomes your Queen, you must also make an alliance with the humans. You can't suddenly launch a large-scale attack like this time."
Linghu Yan smiled and said, "Of course! However, the Demon Clan is willing to coexist peacefully with the humans. I'm afraid that the humans are not willing to live in peace with the Demon Clan. Once the human army crosses the Demon Subduing Pass and invades the Endless Forest, the Demon Clan will fight to the death to protect their homeland. "
"You can rest assured."
Lin Muyu waved her hand and introduced, "This is Her Highness Qin Yin, the future Queen of the Empire. We can conclude this peace treaty now. From now on, the humans won't advance westward, and the Demon Clan won't be able to cross the Demon Subduing Pass. What do you think?"
Linghu Yan said respectfully, "Yes, the Demon Clan won't lightly attack! Please rest assured, Your Highness. "
Qin Yin nodded and said, "The humans won't advance westward either!"
Linghu Yan straightened her body and looked at Tang Xiaoxi. She smiled and said, "This servant has a presumptuous request. Now … can Your Highness let this servant see the true appearance of the Nine-tailed Fox?"
"Ah?"
Tang Xiaoxi was stunned and looked at Lin Muyu.
Linghu Yan wanted to verify her identity. Lin Muyu nodded and said, "Yes, let her see!"
"Okay."
Tang Xiaoxi raised her hand to untie the tie at her collar and handed the robe to Qin Yin. The next moment, the nine flame tails behind her swayed slowly in the air. The fox ears on her head trembled lightly. She was very intelligent. Her golden eyes were smiling and she asked, "Linghu Yan, now that you've seen it, are you satisfied with my current appearance?"
Linghu Yan was dumbfounded. She opened her small mouth and murmured, "So beautiful … such a beautiful Nine-tailed Fox …"
"I don't want to always be like this," Tang Xiaoxi said sullenly.
Linghu Yan chuckled. "Yes, it's understandable. After all, Your Highness has always lived as a human. But Your Highness can rest assured in the future. In our Demon Clan, no one will make fun of Your Highness. They will only revere you."
"No."
Tang Xiaoxi looked nervous and said, "I won't live in the Demon Clan. I want to live in the imperial capital."
"Yes, that's fine. The Demon Clan awaits Your Highness's arrival at any time."
"That's good."
Lin Muyu said, "Now, Saintess, you can go back and let your 50,000 captives enter the city. Then I will naturally bring Xiao Xi to the headquarters of the Demon Forest."
"It's the Endless Forest … Call it whatever you want, as long as you're happy …" Linghu Yan looked helpless.
Feng Jixing said, "Yu, you want to let the Demon Clan captives into the Demon Subduing Pass?"
"Yes."
Lin Muyu nodded and said, "Xiao Xi and I can't rashly go to the Endless Forest, so we must hold a bargaining chip in our hands. 30,000 Fox Clan troops and 20,000 Tree Demon troops are the most elite troops of the Demon Clan. We will keep them as captives in the Demon Subduing Pass. Big Brother Feng, you must help me guard them well. If Xiao Xi and I don't return in three days, Big Brother Feng will slaughter these 50,000 demons!"
"Heh, okay." Feng Jixing smiled slightly. "It just so happens that His Majesty has given me a decree to help you. If we can really quell the Demon Clan's chaos, it will be a great service!"
Linghu Yan felt a chill in her heart when she heard this. Lin Muyu and Feng Jixing looked like elegant young generals, but in their hearts they hid murderous intent. Tens of thousands of lives could be wiped out in a puff of smoke while they were chatting.
… …
Watching Saintess Linghu Yan leave the Demon Subduing Pass, Lin Muyu and Feng Jixing protected Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi. In addition, Wei Chou, Xu Ying, and the other generals stood guard at the side, waiting for the Demon Clan's captives.
About half an hour later, as expected, a dense crowd of Fox Clan troops and Tree Demon troops had arrived. The Fox Clan troops were all male and very strong. Their women were probably only used for reproduction. The Tree Demons had all placed their bows and arrows at the foot of the city and entered the city one after another. There was a captive camp in the Demon Subduing Pass, a camp made of steel. After entering, one could not leave without a key. Moreover, it was enough to imprison 50,000 captives, so it was relatively safe.
After more than an hour, all 50,000 captives had entered the cages, sitting there quietly.
When Lin Muyu brought Tang Xiaoxi and Qin Yin to patrol, a group of Fox Clan members looked at Tang Xiaoxi's golden eyes, their faces full of worship. They all knelt on the ground and said in unison, "Your Highness Xi …"
Qin Yin smiled slightly, "The Empire has another Highness!"
Tang Xiaoxi held back her laughter, "Xiao Yin, don't make fun of me … Hmph, do you think I want to? I actually want to be a normal human. Who would have thought that there would be another me living in my body?"
Lin Muyu said, "Fortune and misfortune go hand in hand, so it might not be a bad thing. Well, at least it's a good thing now. Xiao Xi, you alone managed to quell the chaos of the Demon Clan. This is a great merit. You don't know, but if it weren't for you, I'm afraid we would have had to sacrifice the lives of at least 100,000 soldiers in order to exterminate the entire Demon Clan. That was a great price to pay!"
Feng Jixing smiled at the side and said, "Yu, are you sure that we can exterminate the Demon Clan with just 100,000 soldiers?"
Lin Muyu smiled slightly, "Yes."
"Good boy, you're really arrogant, but I like it!"
Feng Jixing quickly walked over to Saintess Linghu Yan's side and said with a smile, "Beauty Linghu, does your Fox Clan have many Fox Clan beauties?"
Linghu Yan was taken aback, "I wonder why the General is asking about this?"
"There's no deeper meaning." Feng Jixing smiled and said, "Look, as a commander, I'm almost thirty years old, but I'm still alone. If the Holy Maiden doesn't mind, can you introduce me to two or three beauties from the Fox race?"
Qin Yin giggled, "My Great General Feng, you still want two or three?"
Lin Muyu also smiled, "Big Brother Feng is really greedy. Two of us is enough."
"Which two?" Feng Jixing said with a teasing smile, "The two or three I want are all Fox Clan girls. You want two … Humph, two Highnesses. Who's the greedy one!"
Immediately, Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi blushed and pretended not to understand anything.
Linghu Yan held back her laughter and said, "General Feng, if you want to marry a Fox Clan girl, then come with us. As long as you like her, I can help you decide."
Feng Jixing was speechless and said with a smile, "Then forget it. I'll stay at Suppressing Demon Pass to protect Her Highness Yin. Those Nagas outside the city are all fierce and want nothing more than to tear us Empire soldiers into pieces. I won't take the risk!"
"Well, then let's set off, Your Highness?" Your Highness? "Linghu Yan looked at Tang Xiaoxi and Lin Muyu.
Lin Muyu mounted her horse, "Prepare to set off."
At this moment, a group of generals suddenly came over. It was Tang Zhen and the other Captaincy of Seven Seas City.
"Princess Xi!" Tang Zhen cupped his fists and said, "This subordinate has a request."
Tang Xiaoxi blinked and said, "Speak."
Tang Zhen's expression was solemn and his eyes were filled with sorrow, "Five days ago, General Yu Wenxie underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly. Sixty thousand of our Seven Seas City brothers went out to meet him and died tragically in the Guanxi Valley. I hope Princess Xi can make a decision for us and ask the Demon Race to withdraw their troops. We want to take shovels to Guanxi to bury our brothers' corpses and not let them be eaten by wolves and tigers."
Tang Xiaoxi was startled and looked at Linghu Yan, saying, "Linghu, order the troops to withdraw."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Linghu Yan nodded respectfully. It seemed that what she said was true. As long as Tang Xiaoxi was willing to go to the Demon Race's main altar, she would be the queen and her orders would be obeyed.
Tang Zhen was overjoyed, "Thank you, Princess!"
