Niu Youdao came to a sudden realization. It was the grace left behind by Shang Song. No wonder the Silver Fox showed mercy when he realized that he was related to Shang Song.
It also solved the doubts in his heart. No wonder the Silver Fox could fall asleep at such a crucial moment. There was a hidden reason behind it.
The black fox man suddenly sighed, "Maybe the Fox Clan really thinks too highly of themselves. The Old Clan Leader later said that she did not blame Luo Qiu! A person who would use his own daughter as a hostage, if he is not cruel and unscrupulous, then what is he? "It seemed like he could not understand what Yin Ji was thinking.
Niu Youdao stood with his sword and did not make any comments. He had never made a clear distinction between right and wrong when it came to matters. Whose view was right, whose view was wrong, who hated who, who blamed who, there were many things that could not be explained clearly. Everyone had their own standpoint, and everyone had their own angle of view. It was meaningless to argue too much about who was right and who was wrong. Niu Youdao had always discussed matters as they stood.
However, there was one thing he was sure of. Luo Qiu might have really fallen in love with Yin Ji in the early years!
Of course, some things only needed to be clarified. He was not in the mood to dwell on this matter. However, there was one thing that he was curious about. He asked, "Since the Old Clan Leader's blood can help you to transform, can't you return the blood after the Old Clan Leader's life is saved?"
The black fox man said, "If it was useful, would I need you to remind me? The blood of transformation benefited from the Fox Immortal Fruit. Transformation is still transformation, but it does not have the ability to be reborn. The Old Clan Leader's foundation is injured, and his body is damaged. The Old Clan Leader will not be able to return to normal unless he consumes the Fox Immortal Fruit and rebuilds his body. "
As if afraid that others would think that the Fox Clan Leader was selfish, the sickle old man helped to explain, "The original Fox Clan did not have to worry about the source of the Fox Immortal Fruit. Almost everyone could transform. However, after the Fox Clan lost the source of the Fox Immortal Fruit, most of them became no different from wild beasts. The reason why we twelve elders can transform is because we have inherited the transformation blood essence of the previous generation. However, the effect of the transformation blood essence will weaken with each generation. After three generations, it will no longer have any effect. This is also one of the reasons why the old patriarch ran to the human world to find clues about your master at all costs. "
Niu Youdao was good at grasping the crux of the problem. He quickly looked at the crowd and asked, "Twelve Elders?"
Knowing what he meant, the old man with the sickle said, "What kind of training is Nine Dog doing? We can't all be hiding at home. There are still a few of us out there commanding."
Niu Youdao made an 'oh' sound and asked, "How many of the Fox Clan can transform?"
The sickle wielding old man sighed. "There are only thirteen of us now."
Niu Youdao was immediately puzzled. "That can't be right. Since almost every Fox Clan member could transform back then and had inherited the Blood Essence to transform, how could there only be 13 of them?"
The old man with the sickle said, "Do you think it's a joke that Nine Dog almost exterminated the Fox Clan? Our Fox Clan was almost exterminated a few times before we hid here. Most of the Fox Clan members you see now were reproduced later. The new Fox Clan members are still weak and can't be of much use. How could the older generation pass down the transformation blood essence without permission? In order to send the old patriarch to the human world, our Fox Clan suffered heavy losses. We are the only ones left. If it wasn't for the fact that the inheritance was in danger, why would the old patriarch marry Luo Qiu in hopes of getting his help? "
Someone said hatefully, "The most hateful thing is that Nine Dog actually destroyed a large number of Fox Immortal Fruit Trees! It takes a thousand years for the Fox Immortal Fruit Trees to bear fruit! "
Niu Youdao said, "It's not strange for them to do such a thing. It's not just against your Fox Clan. Oh right, I heard a rumor. I'm not sure if it's true or not. It's said that your Fox Clan only has a lifespan of five hundred years. But the old patriarch was already the patriarch before he met Shang Song, right? "
The meaning behind his words was clear. He was referring to Shang Song's disappearance for so many years. He was implying that the old patriarch's lifespan should be more than five hundred years. Obviously, he was still suspicious of what they said.
The black fox man said, "The old patriarch's bloodline is different from the other Fox Clan. We only have a lifespan of five hundred years, but the old patriarch's bloodline can live up to a thousand years. This is also why the old patriarch's bloodline can always be the patriarch that protects the Fox Clan. However, the old patriarch's bloodline is special. They can only give birth once. After that, no matter how hard they try, no matter if they're male or female, they can't give birth a second time. "
Niu Youdao was stunned. He tried to ask, "The old patriarch has already given birth to Luo Fangfei. Doesn't that mean …" He didn't finish his sentence. He believed that everyone understood what he meant. Doesn't that mean that the old patriarch's bloodline is broken?
It seemed that he had guessed correctly. Everyone's expression revealed a hint of sadness.
Niu Youdao sighed inwardly. He more or less understood why Luo Qiu didn't want to have that child, but Yin Ji wanted to keep it. It was just that Luo Fangfei couldn't possibly pass on that bloodline.
The topic was brought back to Luo Fangfei. The black fox man took a deep breath and sighed, "I've told you everything that should and shouldn't be said. You also know the reason why I don't let you touch Luo Fangfei. The old patriarch only has one daughter. No matter what Luo Fangfei has done, the Fox Clan doesn't wish for the old patriarch's bloodline to end! "
No matter what she has done? A thought flashed through Niu Youdao's mind. He suspected that this group of Fox Clan wouldn't have designs on Luo Fangfei. Could it be that they wanted Luo Fangfei to give birth to an offspring for the Fox Clan to continue the legacy?
Of course, he put this thought aside. On the surface, he nodded and said, "Things have already come to this point. If I continue to persist, I won't be giving face to the Fox Clan. Alright, today, in front of the patriarch and the elders, I promise not to touch Luo Fangfei! "
Hearing this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Niu Youdao casually said, "Ao Feng, help me find him!"
The black fox man nodded, "That's easy. As long as he's still in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland, we can find him. We'll make arrangements for you!"
The matter was more or less settled. The Fox Clan asked about the situation of the experiential learning. They also asked about Ying 'er's situation.
Because they had some doubts, when Yin Ji had gone out to look for clues about Shang Song, she hadn't heard anything about Ying 'er's situation.
They didn't understand. Since Ying 'er was still around and hadn't left with Shang Song and his wife, why hadn't she appeared after so many years? According to what they knew, the Butterfly Illusion World would open regularly.
If Ying 'er was still around, with Ying' er's strength, how could she not do anything and allow the Nine Sages to rise?
They didn't suspect that Niu Youdao was Shang Song's successor. With all kinds of evidence, they had already confirmed that Niu Youdao cultivated Shang Song's Heaven and Earth Art.
However, Ying 'er's situation didn't match up with what they had imagined. They couldn't help but suspect that there was something fishy about it. After all, Shang Song's successor was just a successor. He wasn't Shang Song himself. The human heart was unfathomable. Niu Youdao might not be the good person they had imagined him to be.
Regarding this, other than making up some stories, Niu Youdao didn't lie. He told them about the situation when he saw Ying 'er. He said that Ying' er was sealed in a formation mechanism.
And Ying 'er, who was in the form of a Holy Rakshasa, didn't know anyone. She didn't recognize anyone. He only learned the Heaven and Earth Art in the formation and dispelled the demonic energy in Ying' er's body. After Ying 'er returned to normal, he found out that he had obtained Shang Song's inheritance.
He told the Fox Clan that he had brought Ying 'er out before. Ying' er had lived by his side for a period of time. However, he had been sent to Tian Du Mystery Realm. He was afraid that something would happen if he couldn't dispel Ying 'er's demonic energy in time. Hence, he had sent Ying' er back.
As for Ying 'er's current situation, he wasn't sure.
How could the Butterfly Illusion World allow people to enter and leave freely? The Fox Clan was suspicious again.
Niu Youdao explained about using the Wan Shou Clan. He said that the Wan Shou Clan's Chao Jing had also come here. There were many people who knew that he had a Ying 'er by his side. He asked them to verify it themselves when they had the chance. However, he didn't allow them to touch Chao Jing for now. They still didn't know what would happen in the upcoming training. It wasn't a bad thing to have more people by his side.
After the two sides communicated, although the Fox Clan's suspicions were still there, most of their suspicions had been dispelled. That was because they had heard from the old clan leader that Yin Die 'er, who was by Shang Song's side, was indeed a glutton, the kind that ate all day long.
It was also because of this communication that the Fox Clan found out from the Fox Clan that Shang Song's wife, Empress Wu, Li Ge, didn't know the Heaven and Earth Art. Both parties seemed to understand the reason why Ying 'er was sealed.
The Fox Clan said that Shang Song disappeared first. Li Ge disappeared later. After Shang Song disappeared, Li Ge came to Fox Paradise Realm to check on him. He also talked to Yinji.
Without the Heaven and Earth Art to dispel the demonic energy in Ying 'er's body, it was hard to control Ying' er who was out of control. They couldn't keep her by their side. Should they tie her up or kill her? This was probably the real reason why Ying 'er was sealed. If they had a choice, they wouldn't let their trusted aide suffer like this!
In other words, the person who had set up the sealing array wasn't Shang Song. It wasn't Shang Song who had sealed Ying 'er. It was Empress Li Ge!
In other words, the person who had set up the array was Li Ge!
Niu Youdao couldn't help but think of the Shang Mirror and the reason why he had come to this world because of the ancient bronze mirror. He frowned in thought, but he couldn't figure out the truth.
The Fox Clan sighed. They didn't think that Ying 'er had been locked up in the metal box for hundreds of years.
Farewell! The group of people sent Niu Youdao off. When they walked out of the underground palace, the Black Fox man suddenly asked, "You didn't ask for my name from start to finish. Don't you want to know?"
Niu Youdao faintly smiled, "When you are willing to truly trust me, when you feel safe and are willing to tell me, you will naturally take the initiative to tell me." He looked up at the three strange characters on the cave dwelling and asked, "Are these the characters of your fox clan?"
The Black Fox man replied, "Yes! It was personally carved by Shang Song on the stone plaque. He has always brought it with him after moving here and there. "
Niu Youdao smiled. "My Master understands the words of your Fox Clan?"
The Black Fox man replied, "Not only your Master, your Mistress understands it too. When Shang Song first connected to this world, because of the language barrier, communication was not smooth, and there were some misunderstandings. After that, in order to facilitate communication, Shang Song and his wife learned the language of my fox race. The old chief also learned the human language from them at that time, and later spread it to the fox race. "
Niu Youdao was just asking casually. "Alright, I'll send you off here. It won't be good if someone sees me with you when I go out."
The Black Fox man replied, "Then I won't send you off."
Niu Youdao cupped his hands and left, diving back into the mud at the entrance.
The Black Fox man standing at the entrance of the cave abode turned around and said, "This place has been exposed. It's not suitable to stay here any longer. Gather the clan and change locations."
It was obvious that he didn't completely trust Niu Youdao and didn't dare to risk the safety of the Fox Clan.
When Niu Youdao emerged from the mud, he found himself on an inconspicuous mountain. Beneath his feet was the Fox Clan's lair, hidden deep underground.
