Chapter 284: The Qingqiu Emperor's Shock

"This matter must not be publicized; after you return, you may present it to the clan."

At the ear, Lin Chuan's voice sounded.

Bai Miao Miao's eyes widened, receiving Lin Chuan's proactive acknowledgment, causing her shock to reach its peak.

"Why are you helping me?"

Bai Miao Miao transmitted the question.

She did not understand.

Lin Chuan smiled, "This is the fate between me and the Fox Clan; you will know later."

Bai Miao Miao, thoughtful, recalled the recent rampant rumors: many cultivators were saying that a super mysterious great power sat behind Lin Chuan.

Could it be the great power behind Lin Chuan?

"Thank you."

In any case, this is a favor that must be thanked to Lin Chuan.

Even any gratitude seemed feeble; she could not truly thank, only return to report to the clan,

the elders of the clan would thank Lin Chuan themselves.

"I concede!"

Bai Miao Miao shouted her concession.

The gap was too large; with the strength Lin Chuan displayed in the illusion, it could crush her, leaving no point in continuing the match.

Her gains were already sufficient.

"Huh? Is that it?"

"Are you two playing One Two Three, the statue game?"

"The most boring match!"

A sigh rose on Yun Tai.

From start to finish, they saw no clash between Lin Chuan and Bai Miao Miao; it was truly lackluster.

On Yun Tai.

Lin Chuan was sent back by the Spatial Law.

"Husband, how is it?" Tu Shan Jiao Jiao leaned in to ask.

"Very smoothly."

Lin Chuan smiled, "But whether Qingqiu can reconcile with Tushan remains unknown."

"Whatever they want."

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao pursed her lips, "The Black Mist crisis is imminent; I may not wait until I mature to contribute a force, helping the Fox Clan produce a few more strong ones is always a good thing."

"I hope for more time," Lin Chuan prayed.

With his contest against Bai Miao Miao concluded, only the final match of the fifth round of the Celestial Realm Power Struggle remained.

Bi Luo Yuan's Nan Gong Ya faced Golden Spirit Mountain's San Zang Fozhi.

The two were transported into a small world.

"Patron, you have a great evil aura on you."

San Zang Fozhi pressed both palms together and gave a slight bow.

"What evil aura?"

Nan Gong Ya said teasingly.

San Zang Fozhi shook his head, "I, a humble monk, do not know; if the patron is willing to let me investigate carefully, I can surely find the answer."

"Alright."

Nan Gong Ya's smile vanished instantly, she snarled, "Let's see whether I first gouge out your bald donkey's eyes, or you first find the answer."

"My Buddha is merciful."

San Zang Fozhi's face remained unchanged, "My Buddha says that a woman's physical life being out of sync affects her spirit and emotions; indeed, that's correct."

On Yun Tai.

The Fo Men cultivators' faces were jet black?

Which Fozu ever said such words?

This guy, clearly a contemporary Fozhi, yet so out of line, trampling the Fo Men's reputation.

"I'll kill you!"

Nan Gong Ya, enraged, ceased speaking, waved her hand and unleashed a fusion of three‑colored divine light, bearing terrifying killing intent toward San Zang Fozhi.

"The patron is impatient."

San Zang Fozhi sat on the ground, his smile undiminished,

"Although Bi Luo Yuan pursues me, I, a humble monk, bear no grudges; if the patron wishes Yin‑Yang balance, I will gladly handle it."

Boom!

The three‑colored stream of light fell.

Above the Fozhi, a massive golden bell manifested, firmly blocking the strike.

Lin Chuan laughed, "It seems San Zang Fozhi is also good at provoking; let's see if Nan Gong Ya can surpass him before her emotions spiral out of control."

Bai Li Ming manifested the Daoist supreme Divine Power 'One Breath Transforms the Three Purities', clearly surpassing San Zang Fozhi.

Now we wait to see at which step San Zang Fozhi hides.

A battle laced with quarrels thus began.

On Qingqiu Yun Tai.

Bai Miao Miao sat on the chair, completely without interest in watching Nan Gongya and San Zang Fozhi's duel.

"Bai Miao Miao, are you okay?"

The protector of the Qingqiu Fox Clan on this trip is named Bai Lingyuan, who is also Bai Miao Miao's aunt.

"Since the battle with Lin Chuan, you've been absent‑minded. What exactly happened in the illusion? What makes you so concerned?"

"Also let me inform the Emperor Lord and ask him to come over."

"I…" Bai Miao Miao hesitated.

"Forget it, I won't pressure you any further."

Bai Susu sighed, "The Emperor Lord will arrive soon."

The Qingqiu Emperor Lord, one of the strongest in the Wangxian Realm today, achieves Wangxian through his own great power, and his strength is unfathomable.

This is also the fundamental reason the Fox Clan can stand among superpowers.

"Aunt Bai Lingyuan, it's not that I don't trust you; my parents are gone, you are the person closest to me, but this matter is truly important."

Bai Miao Miao said gravely, "Only the Emperor Lord's personal presence can decide this matter."

"I hope so,"

Bai Lingyuan was somewhat skeptical: how much can Lin Chuan help? To affect all of Qingqiu, it truly requires the Emperor Lord to decide personally.

Although the Emperor Lord is kind and cares for his subjects, if Bai Miao Miao deliberately teases, a punishment is inevitable.

The two were speaking.

The space rippled.

A tall figure appeared before the two.

"Your Majesty, Emperor Lord."

Bai Lingyuan and Bai Miao Miao hurriedly performed a respectful bow.

"No need for formalities."

Nine-Tailed Foxes are already scarce; they spend a lot of time together daily, treating each other like family, and the Qingqiu Emperor Lord rarely puts on airs.

"Bai Miao Miao, what summons me here?" the Qingqiu Emperor Lord asked with a smile.

"Emperor Lord, may I have your hand?"

Bai Miao Miao whispered.

The Qingqiu Emperor Lord smiled and extended his hand; Bai Miao Miao placed her hand on the Emperor Lord's broad fingers and conveyed everything she experienced in the illusion via her spiritual sense.

Bai Lingyuan watched from the side, her expression solemn.

The Qingqiu Emperor Lord's expression kept changing, from a smile at first, to shock, to respect, then to amazement,

and finally to ecstatic joy.

She could hardly imagine what the Qingqiu Emperor Lord had experienced.

Was all this brought about by that Lin Chuan?

After a long while, Bai Miao Miao withdrew her hand.

The Qingqiu Emperor Lord opened his eyes, his turbulent emotions hard to calm, "Unimaginable, that such a thing could happen."

Bai Lingyuan couldn't help but ask, "Emperor Lord, what exactly is it that has shocked you so?"

"Good news!"

The Qingqiu Emperor Lord laughed heartily, "This benefits all of Qingqiu, no—it's a boon for the entire Fox Clan; it will turn Qingqiu's history around."

"Huh?" Bai Lingyuan was even more bewildered.

Just a mere Lin Chuan, could he possess such great power?

"After the Genius War ends, when I return to Qingqiu, I will announce this matter."

The Qingqiu Emperor Lord looked at Bai Miao Miao, his eyes full of praise, "Bai Miao Miao, you handled this well; you deserve the primary credit."

"After returning, I will recommend to the Clan Elders that you become the next Emperor Lord."

"While there is still time, I will help you digest your insights; if progress is smooth, you may grasp something, perhaps even break through to the sixth cycle."

Having said that, the Qingqiu Emperor Lord's gaze turned toward the top‑ranked Yun Tai.

"Lin Chuan?"

"Who exactly is this divine being? After the Genius War ends, I will certainly pay my respects."
