Chapter 839: A Misstep of Fate, Harvesting Yin to Complement Yang?

~7 min read 1,211 words

Time slipped by, and it was the next morning.

The morning inside the Fox Clan's cave heaven was no different from outside.

Unfortunately, with no sun risen, three people lay on the ground; Heishanyang was sprawled on the earth, its eyes slightly narrowed—last night's battle kept it from sleeping, so it kept watch, even though the Ground‑Binding Prison was protecting it, it was still very dangerous.

"That kid's about to wake up; he'll thank me,"

"This time, they'll lose everything,"

Heishanyang muttered inwardly, glancing toward where Chen Chuyang lay; that kid was about to wake up.

Sure enough, moments later, Chen Chuyang slowly opened his eyes, and in an instant he stood up, completely bewildered.

Or rather, he was now bewildered, unable to believe what he saw when he looked at his own hands and his condition: his whole body was naked, wearing nothing, his clothes having been torn to pieces last night, fragments scattered on the ground, leaving marks everywhere.

It proved the battle last night was insane; his memory gradually returned. Though he lost reason in the frenzy, the memories persisted, and now he kept recalling everything from last night—big and small—every detail became clear.

Looking down, he saw two corpses lying on the ground, bodies that had not yet awakened.

Hu Jiuwei's body lay before his eyes, a beautiful form that caught his gaze; he looked once and couldn't help looking a second time.

The nine‑tailed sky fox's body was the same; recalling last night's madness, Chen Chuyang quickly retrieved his clothes and put them on, then covered the two bodies so they wouldn't be exposed to the sky. Looking again at the nine‑tailed sky fox, its soul had returned to its body, seemingly only partially.

Last night's battle gave both parties some benefit, but now is not the time to assess those benefits; it's about what to do with them.

These two women, actually…

"I ended up experiencing the same fate as my father—damn it,"

"The Fox Clan is indeed cunning; their tactics are truly devious, impossible to guard against,"

Even he fell for it.

He had been careful before, guarding against them, yet still got caught.

Who could have imagined that within their souls hid that thing, capable of infinitely amplifying one's desires, and then…

"Two absolutely stunning foxes—if Hongxue the girl found out, she'd definitely kill me,"

"Now I really don't know how to explain this,"

And regarding Qi Ruohua, Chen Chuyang felt a headache; thinking of the tactics these two women used, he couldn't help shivering.

Don't be fooled by Hongxue's normally easygoing manner; it was prearranged, giving her a mental preparation, which is why she was so generous.

At this moment, Chen Chuyang also found it laughable that he had fallen for it and made such a mistake.

After Hu Jiuwei awakens, she will probably not let him off.

This whole affair truly was a case of mistaken timing.

The situation has become final, unchangeable.

Chen Chuyang stepped out of the Ground‑Binding Prison technique; Heishanyang hurried over, grinning, "Kid, this time you're in for a treat—both of the Fox Clan's most beautiful women fell to you. This time, you owe me thanks; without me, they might not have cooperated so willingly."

"You have no idea how severe my final move was yesterday; they schemed against you, and I made them lose everything,"

The nine‑tailed sky fox, having failed to steal the chicken and ended up losing the rice, will probably self‑destruct on the spot after waking.

Spending the whole day hunting geese, he never expected a day when a goose would peck back.

Heishanyang kept bragging about its glorious battle record, demanding some rewards.

Chen Chuyang listened the whole time; from Heishanyang's perspective, it was indeed so.

"This time I don't know how to resolve it; I didn't obtain the nine‑tailed sky fox's technique, nor its essence, yet I ended up losing myself—I'm the one who took a loss,"

"Alas,"

He sighed, having paid the price himself.

The loss was huge.

He, who guarded himself like jade, even had a day like this.

"Huh?" Heishanyang widened its eyes at Chen Chuyang, and at that moment realized just how shameless the person before it was.

Someone who takes a cheap deal and then pretends to be innocent is truly despicably shameless.

"Kid, no matter how you look at it, you hit the jackpot. These two—one is the current Fox Clan chieftain, the most beautiful lady of the clan, with top‑tier bloodline talent and so on; countless people coveted her, and you got her. What are you still pretending about?"

"Her entire purity is now yours, along with a whole lot of yin essence, all given to you. I don't know what loss you claim,"

"And this one—though her soul finally returned to her body, achieving half a resurrection—she surpasses Hu Jiuwei, being of the nine‑tailed sky fox bloodline, a royal lineage within the Tianwai Fox Clan. You also obtained her; what more do you want?"

Either of these two, if taken out, could spark a scramble among many Strong Ones.

Beyond their beauty, there's another point: the Fox Clan's yin essence is extremely precious, able to help one breakthrough; it's a top‑grade cauldron, and for cultivators of their level, it's a masterpiece.

Even Tianwai is hard to find, yet Chen Chuyang obtained it; he really hit the jackpot.

Heishanyang gave Chen Chuyang a withering glance, clearly knowing he was taking a cheap deal and then playing innocent.

Chen Chuyang naturally knew both were stunning; wherever they were placed, they'd attract a crowd of suitors.

But he truly didn't know how to handle them; in the short term, he had no solution.

"Hoo‑hoo."

Taking a deep breath, Chen Chuyang said, "I know that part, and you know my situation; how should I explain this to Hongxue?"

"Before, I constantly condemned my father's faults; now I've become just like him,"

"Alas,"

He hadn't expected this situation; it caught him off guard.

This time, he really got himself into trouble.

Heishanyang said wordlessly, "Kid, if you keep this up, I'll really beat you up."

"You should've said you didn't want it; it'd be better for me. This is a stunning beauty, and I can accept that,"

"Go, go, go." Chen Chuyang waved his hand, "Go away, even if I gave it to you, you still can't have it?"

"They're all my women; don't overthink it, or I'll castrate you."

Heishanyang couldn't help clenching its legs and retreated immediately, daring not to speak such words again; in that instant it felt Chen Chuyang's murderous gaze and truly feared that Chen Chuyang would indeed castrate it.

After threatening Heishanyang, Chen Chuyang saw Hu Jiuwei wake up.

He only saw Hu Jiuwei slowly stand up, take out a set of clothes and put them on, with a very flat expression, as if accepting all of this.

After briefly baptizing the body with spiritual energy and washing away that lingering scent, Hu Jiuwei finally turned around, their cold eyes fixed on Chen Chuyang, just as before; upon close inspection one could notice a difference—deep in the gaze, a hint of complex emotion had appeared.

It seemed they also didn't know how to handle it, how to get along with Chen Chuyang.
