Chapter 773: Better Than Yan Yan

~10 min read 1,964 words

The firmament of the Imperial Capital was like overturned ink, presenting a dim and monotonous color.

The setting sun gradually sank in the west, and the afterglow lost most of its luster, becoming equally dim.

The only light that fell on the earth draped everything in gray clothes, as if the whole world was immersed in oppression.

The clouds in the sky were also in this atmosphere, as if they had merged with the sky, indistinguishable from each other.

Pedestrians on the street had hurried expressions. They didn't know the specific Imperial decrees, but they saw the blood-colored mysterious birds and guessed that a catastrophe might descend.

Especially the mobilization of the army, which made this guess a reality.

The Human Race of this era is sorrowful.

Thus, dimness became the main color of the Human Race's heaven and earth, gradually turning pitch black, with thunder passing through the darkness, as if a heavy rain was about to come.

The wind that blew, although no longer containing the cold of midwinter, and the seasonal changes it brought, also reminded people of the coming of spring, but falling on people, it seemed... even colder than winter.

Xu Qing also felt it, but he had adapted.

Standing outside the Red Dust Forgetting Emotion Building, listening to the Mud Fox's voice in his ears, he had no surprises.

He understood the nature of gods better than ordinary people.

And this time, he had other purposes.

"The Red Mother has fallen."

Xu Qing spoke calmly.

"Of course I know that, stinky little brother. What do you want to say?"

The Mud Fox laughed softly, her voice carrying a trace of temptation.

"But the Red Moon is still there."

As soon as Xu Qing's voice came out, an aura emanated from the Forgetting Emotion Building in front of him.

Xu Qing's expression was as usual, and he continued to speak.

"I can feel that the Red Moon is returning."

"I plundered the Red Mother's authority, so my intuition cannot be wrong. Not long from now, the Red Moon will appear in the sky of the Wanggu Continent. At that time, the person standing on the Red Moon might be Li Zihua, or it might be someone else."

"No matter who it is... He will choose to be complete, and we who have shared the Red Mother's flesh and blood might be His direction."

"Just like seeds, growing up, and then being harvested."

After Xu Qing's voice entered the Forgetting Emotion Building, the Mud Fox laughed after a long while.

"Stinky little brother, your words are quite interesting, but I haven't seen the future."

Xu Qing didn't argue about whether gods could see the future. His voice remained calm, echoing out.

"The Red Mother is Li Zihua's younger sister. They are gods who became gods after birth, different from innate gods."

"Like the Fifth Imperial Prince, from the perspective of righteousness, he knows that my slaying of the Seventh was correct, but as an older brother, he still has to fight me. If I also had an older brother, and someone killed me, he wouldn't stop it, but after I died, I think he would also take action to cut the karma for the sake of his peace of mind."

The Mud Fox was silent, as if pondering. A moment later, there was less temptation in her voice and more formality.

"A very interesting inference. Although the possibility is not high, it sounds reasonable. So... what do you want for coming to find me?"

Xu Qing bowed.

"Please, Star Flame Upper God, send me a qualification to participate in the Yanyue Xuantian Clan's Great Hunt."

"I was right to be interested in you. Stinky little brother, you are really fun sometimes. You actually thought of this method to break the situation."

The Mud Fox laughed.

"If you can obtain the title of Xuantian General in the Yanyue Xuantian Clan's Great Hunt, then you will have an honorary status in the Yanyue Clan."

"And every Xuantian General who appears in the Great Hunt possesses an opportunity to request a reward from the three major authorities."

"Through this opportunity, are you planning to ask the Yanyue Xuantian Clan not to go to war with the Human Race? This possibility does not exist."

The Mud Fox's voice carried ridicule. To her, life was just a flower.

Xu Qing shook his head.

"If I succeed, I will not make this request."

"Then what is your request?"

The Mud Fox was a bit curious.

"When I succeed, the Upper God will naturally know."

Xu Qing looked at the Forgetting Emotion Building and spoke softly.

Laughter came from inside the building.

"You bad little brother, very well. I can satisfy this request of yours for the sake of your original yang."

During the speech, a pink rainbow light flew out from the building and stopped in front of Xu Qing. Amidst the flowing light, it turned into a pink token.

On the front, a fox figure was depicted, and on the back was a landscape.

Xu Qing took it and looked at it. At the same time, a lazy voice came from the Forgetting Emotion Building.

"By the way, I can also tell you about the links of the Great Hunt in advance. You must know, this is sister's partiality to you. If it were someone else, I wouldn't tell them."

The Mud Fox's voice became even stronger in its sense of temptation.

Xu Qing took a deep breath, bowed, and listened intently. He knew that this information was very important to him.

Because it was indeed as he had expressed before, what he needed for this visit was this qualification.

As for returning to the Jiyue Domain, Xu Qing didn't intend to make it the main thing for this outing. Given his relationship with the Heir and others, if he pleaded, they would likely take action.

But he had to consider the willingness of the Heir and others, so Xu Qing's plan was to find a way to solve it himself first, and if it really didn't work, then go to Jiyue.

In addition, there was another point that was the reason Xu Qing chose to go to the Yanyue Xuantian Clan.

That was Xiang Ningyan's merit.

Only if Xiang Ningyan became the Crown Prince would he have the opportunity to enter the Ancestral Star and possess the possibility of obtaining the Purple Xuan Upper Green Lamp.

Therefore, just the war merit of Xiang Ningyan going to the Black Heaven Clan, Xu Qing felt, was not enough.

If the resolution of the Yanyue Xuantian Clan was added, then for Xiang Ningyan, this merit would be incomparably huge.

As Xu Qing's thoughts spread, the Mud Fox's voice drifted over.

"The Yanyue Xuantian Clan's Great Hunt is divided into three links this time. If you want to become a Xuantian General, you must be at least first in one link. If you can be first in all three links, then the title bestowed will not be an ordinary Xuantian General."

"But a Great Xuantian!"

The Mud Fox's tone also carried a trace of expectation.

"It has been many years since a Great Xuantian appeared."

"And the first link of the hunt is currently underway, lasting for half a year, and half has already passed."

"The first link is moving mountains."

"Not ordinary mountains, but forbidden mountains."

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.

"Forbidden mountains?"

"That's right, whether it is within the Yanyue Clan's sphere of influence or outside, any mountain that appears in a forbidden zone will do."

The Mud Fox laughed.

"One forbidden mountain counts as meeting the requirement, but that is only the minimum requirement. If you want to be first, the forbidden mountain you obtain must surpass everyone else."

"At the same time, during the link, you must carry the forbidden mountain to the Yanyue's God Mountain and God City, and only by integrating the mountain body there will it be considered complete."

"During this period... all participants can kill each other and plunder each other, regardless of life or death."

The Mud Fox paused here, and her few simple words revealed a sense of bloodiness.

Xu Qing nodded, and the Mud Fox continued to speak.

"As for the second link, it is even more interesting, called taming and hunting."

"Within the Yanyue Xuantian Clan, there are many divine creatures, some strong and some weak. Taming one as your Xuantian mount is the requirement for this second link."

"The more powerful the divine beast, the greater the difficulty of taming it, and the difficulty of wanting to be first can be imagined. If you are not careful, you might become food."

"So stinky little brother, you must think clearly. Don't lose your life before giving me your original yang, and during the Great Hunt, even I cannot easily intervene."

Xu Qing was lost in thought upon hearing this. The requirements for this link were a bit special.

"As for the third link, it is simple, but it is also the most important."

In the shrine, the Mud Fox licked her lips, a demonic light appearing in her eyes.

"That is hunting the Divine Domain!"

"At that time, I and two other sisters will take action together to tear open an entrance to a Divine Domain."

"As for which Divine Domain it is, I cannot tell you, but I think... you should like it there."

The Mud Fox laughed softly.

"And after the crack in the Divine Domain is torn open, all participants will rush in, using the number and status of the Divine Domain creatures killed as a standard for measurement."

"The more you kill, the greater the possibility of winning, but at the same time, that is a Divine Domain... so in every Great Hunt, in fact, more than eighty percent of the participants will die."

"There are also some who will be invaded and alienated into divine flesh. This divine flesh can feed my little cuties very well. Occasionally, if there is something particularly delicious, I will also take a bite."

"This is a banquet, a banquet prepared for the pleasure of gods. If you go to participate, I will watch this banquet more carefully."

"But I don't really want to see others eat your meat after you die, so... I might use a divine power once to claim your meat exclusively."

"Stinky little brother, what do you think of this proposal?"

The Mud Fox's voice was very gentle, but the meaning of her words was hair-raising.

Xu Qing didn't care and nodded.

"Can."

In the shrine, the Mud Fox giggled, laughing until the shrine shook, laughing until the dust on her body scattered, laughing until the shrine swayed, laughing until the light in her eyes became even more brilliant. Finally, she licked her lips and spoke softly.

"This time it is true, stinky little brother. I found... I like you more and more."

Xu Qing looked at the Red Dust Forgetting Emotion Building. He had experienced similar words and similar feelings before with Yan Yan. Even if compared, this Mud Fox was still a bit conservative.

Apart from the strength of ability, to a certain extent, there was still a not-small gap with Yan Yan.

Thus, Xu Qing didn't speak, bowed, turned, and left. In this pitch-black sky, his figure gradually disappeared into the night, merging with the darkness, invisible and indistinguishable from each other.

For a long time, in the pitch-black and relatively quiet Imperial Capital, in this sealed Red Dust Forgetting Emotion Building shrine, the Mud Fox on the shrine raised her head slightly and looked into the distance.

"Second sister fell in love with a person back then. I wonder what kind of feeling that is." ===== CHAPTER 774 =====
