Chapter 822: One Glance, Injuring the Fox Clan Elder

~7 min read 1,297 words

Master, could it be that even someone as powerful as the clan chief of the Qingqiu Fox Clan also needs... these bloodlines?

Strong Ones all have dignity; it's impossible for them to do such a disgraceful thing.

If Shang Hongchen were to do that, she would rather not, and she wouldn't do it.

She has her pride and her dignity; it's impossible for her to do such a thing for just a bit of bloodline.

Tianlian Zhenren sighed: "You don't understand."

When you reach that stage, stuck for countless years, unable to break through, no matter how you cultivate, you still can't break through; seeing your lifespan come to an end, you will naturally go mad, trying any means, even if it means becoming a public enemy of heaven and earth, you will spare no effort.

Hongchen, you're still young, haven't set foot in this world yet; when you truly understand the cruelty of cultivation, that shows you've grown up.

By then, you will naturally feel that such things are nothing.

Strong Ones also want to survive, especially those who have lived very long, whether human or demon beast; nothing is more enticing than being able to break through.

For this, they will use any means; even if they have to kill everyone, they won't blink.

The path of cultivation is inherently cruel; it's just that many people hide it, not revealing their true nature.

How many Strong Ones hide another face behind the scenes.

On the cultivation path, don't trust others, and don't be fooled by their appearances; many people are just putting on an act.

Conceal themselves, then strike you from behind.

Hongchen, you are truly fortunate.

Being able to meet her, and also meet Chen Chuyang, having a good younger sister like Shang Hongxue, good things are given to her first.

Rather than thinking of ways to drive her away, to keep distance from her.

If it were another master, Shang Hongchen would already have been tortured beyond human shape, and would have died long ago in the Heavenly Heart Sect.

Inside the Heavenly Heart Sect, it appears united, but Tianlian Zhenren clearly knows that it's all just a facade.

Especially some recent reactions from the Heavenly Heart Sect have made her uneasy.

Her senior brother is likely to take a risky path.

If that happens, it will... cause massive slaughter.

Master.

Shang Hongchen raised her head, not understanding why the master always says she is fortunate; could it be that meeting Chen Chuyang and them is what makes it so fortunate?

Her life doesn't seem that fortunate.

On the contrary, misfortune fills her surroundings.

From beginning to end, she has never been fortunate.

You, sitting in blessings yet unaware of them.

In the future, you will naturally understand.

Tianlian Zhenren reached out and stroked Shang Hongchen's head; after all, she is still a little girl, hasn't experienced much, so she cannot see through the essence of this world.

This world, or Tianwai, are the same.

In the cruel world of cultivation, the strong are above, the weak below.

Only the Strong Ones have all power and resources, while the weak can only live on their knees.

If unwilling to kneel, then go die.

Outside Longshe Shan.

Ten kilometers away, Hu Jiuwei and the Elder stopped, the two facing a great enemy, backs to each other, daring not to move.

The surroundings were empty, yet it made them feel creepy.

That sense of danger enveloped their bodies and minds, impossible to resist.

Hu Jiuwei narrowed his eyes, staring ahead, and said coldly and ruthlessly: "Who? Sneaking around, come out."

The Elder stared ahead, and a figure appeared before him.

One person, one sheep.

A black goat, with playful eyes scanning the two, as if they were food.

That gaze made the Elder dislike it.

He frowned, suppressing a hint of displeasure and killing intent within.

Is the one who came the master of Longshe Shan, Chen Chuyang?

He clasped his hands, asked softly, not daring to be presumptuous or arrogant.

That invisible pressure made even speaking a problem for him.

Only by facing him in person did he know how terrifying this person is, that boundless pressure squeezing his flesh and soul.

The Elder is not as strong as the clan chief Hu Jiuwei; his strength has not yet stepped into the True Realm.

Facing that pressure, he was truly... terrified.

His heart was shocked beyond measure, yet on the surface he dared not show any... fear or panic.

Chen Chuyang walked up to the two, his gaze falling on Hu Jiuwei, an absolutely beautiful, icy woman.

Peerless beauty under heaven.

Everyone says fox spirits are beautiful; only after truly seeing one does one know it's genuinely beautiful.

The iciness on Hu Jiuwei not only didn't diminish her beauty, but actually increased it greatly.

That demeanor is even colder and more ruthless than Qi Ruohua's.

The invisible aura emanating from her makes people shudder.

Compared to the Elder, he is relatively ordinary, just an old man, but his strength is not lacking.

The two also sized up Chen Chuyang; at first glance, he seemed quite ordinary.

Taking another look, he still seemed ordinary, like a mortal, with nothing noticeable.

It merged with the surrounding aura, quite……ordinary and plain.

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes full of shock, then doubt.

Cannot see through.

Nothing could be seen, not even true qi, and they felt nothing at all.

It seemed as if Chen Chuyang and the surrounding forest had merged into one, with no distinction between self and others.

They had never encountered such a situation before; instantly, they lost their confidence.

"I am the Chen Chuyang you are looking for; I don't know what business you two have coming to my Longshe Shan."

"Longshe Shan is my Chen Chuyang's territory; you two barged in rudely—are you looking down on me?"

As the words fell, Chen Chuyang's smile disappeared.

What replaced it was coldness.

Cold and ruthless.

Chen Chuyang coldly stared at the Elder; the Fox Clan Elder exchanged a glance, and his body was directly flung backward.

"Bang."

"Pfft."

His body flew a meter away, crashed to the ground, and blood spattered the sky.

In this scene, Hu Jiuwei hadn't reacted yet, and the Elder flew out.

Her eyes flickered with doubt; she sensed nothing—when did this person strike?

"A minor punishment as a warning; if there is a next time, kill without mercy."

Killing aura enveloped the Elder and Hu Jiuwei.

The two fell silent, not moving immediately; the Elder stared at Chen Chuyang, and at this moment he felt the Black Tiger Elder's fear—this person before him was terrifying, he hadn't realized he himself was injured.

If that strike just now was aimed at killing him, then wouldn't that mean—

Thinking of this, the Elder broke out in a sweat, not daring to……think further.

He clasped his hands, bowed low, his attitude very humble; if the earlier good attitude was due to not knowing Chen Chuyang's background, giving him the respect due a strong one, now it is respect for the strong.

He dared not be the slightest bit lax.

Hu Jiuwei's eyes fixed on Chen Chuyang, cold qi spreading, beginning to spread from beneath her feet.

Beneath her blue long dress, the pair of blue transparent high heels spread cold qi, freezing everything within one meter directly.

The cold qi spread outward, and Hu Jiuwei grew angry.

Want to exchange moves with Chen Chuyang, that cold qi froze everything around.

Flowers, plants, trees, even the earth, were sealed by the ice.

The cold qi reached Chen Chuyang's feet, climbing up his body.

Chen Chuyang remained unmoved, letting the cold qi spread; he wanted to test the power of this cold qi.
