“Then where is your friend?” The little fox asked.

“It should be in the central area of the Cheonggu mountain.” Li Qingshan looked into the distance and looked at the core of the Cheonggu Mountain, the Cheonggu Sanctuary.

That was the central region of the Cheonggu Mountain, accessible only to those with six tails or more.

Without further ado, Li Qingshan took the little fox and traversed thousands of miles of hills to arrive at this central area.

Here, there was a lively atmosphere.

Here, there were decorations and festivities.

There was laughter and joy.

Stepping into this area, even if deep within the crowd, others couldn’t see Li Qingshan. The gap between Emperor Realm and others was too big. Although standing in the same area, the dimensions in which they existed were completely different. Li Qingshan walked boldly, not worrying at all about being discovered.

Passing through this Cheonggu Sanctuary, one could feel the atmosphere of a wedding. People kept discussing the union of two eight-tailed foxes, placing high hopes on them, hoping for the birth of a nine-tailed fox in this era.

This was the most important thing for the Fox Race at the moment.

It could be said that people of all ages were looking forward to it.

In their eyes, the two were perfectly matched, both eight-tailed foxes, with no significant difference in status. Although there might be some differences in appearance, who would care about a man’s looks in the world?

“What a festive atmosphere,” the little fox said, looking at the lively surroundings. She couldn’t help but imagine herself and Li Qingshan as the protagonists of this grand wedding.

But before she could indulge in her fantasy for long, she was forcibly taken away by Li Qingshan.

In the center of the Cheonggu Sanctuary, Li Qingshan found the Fox Lady.

The Cheonggu Sanctuary of the Fox Race had no Emperors; the highest were Crimson Immortals, only two of them, very old, and the decision-makers of the Fox Race.

So, Li Qingshan’s Emperor primordial spirit scanned the entire Cheonggu Sanctuary without being detected.

The gap was too huge, and the difference in strength too vast.

Li Qingshan didn’t beat around the bush. He found the Fox Lady’s location and went straight there.

Where the foxes were, the guard was tight. Several Immortal Kings sat guard, vigilant around, fearing someone would bewitch the Fox Lady at this moment and take her away.

Under layers of guards was where the Fox Lady resided.

In the splendid palace, beautiful maids served the Fox Lady, grooming her. The fox looked at herself in the mirror with an indifferent expression. Even with such an expression, she was still stunning.

Beauty comes in many forms.

At this moment, the Fox Lady was aloof, overlooking the Human World like a queen.

She wasn’t particularly happy about the impending marriage; it wasn’t the wedding she had hoped for, and the groom wasn’t the one she had expected.

But there was no other way.

This marriage was personally arranged by her master, and no matter how dissatisfied she was, the Fox Lady wouldn’t easily disobey her master’s orders.

She knew that, as an Eight-Tailed Monster Fox, she couldn’t control her fate.

Being able to marry another Eight-Tailed Monster Fox of the same clan might already be the best fate for her. In the future, her only task would be to give birth to a Nine-Tailed Fox.

In the Fox Lady’s eyes, this was just cooperation between two parties, cultivating a Nine-Tailed Fox, disguised under a layer of marriage.

“What a pity…” the fox sighed, a hint of melancholy appearing on her face.

“Miss, what are you regretting?” asked a maid cautiously.

“Nothing,” the fox said coldly, scaring the maid behind her into silence.

She just regretted meeting him, who was brilliant and dazzling, but not being able to hold onto him. After returning to the Monster Realm, she couldn’t forget him. But when she heard about him again, he had already become an Emperor towering above the others, directly suppressing the other Emperors of the Monster Realm, and sealing the Monster Realm with his military exploits. He had outstanding military achievements.

This left the Fox Lady stunned and disheartened.

Missing each other in the supreme-ruler Realm might mean missing each other for a lifetime. Meeting again, the difference in status between the two was too great. The Fox Lady knew that there was no hope for this life anymore.

So, when Master proposed that two Eight-Tailed Monster Foxes should unite, there was a high probability of giving birth to a Nine-Tailed Fox. Despite the Fox Lady’s inner reluctance, she could only nod in agreement when she looked at her elderly master.

“I probably won’t see you again in this lifetime…” the Fox Lady sighed sadly in her heart.

She knew that her unrequited love would end here.

In the days to come, she would have to accept the arrangements of fate.

But just as the Fox Lady resigned herself to her fate, a figure walked into the heavily guarded palace, against the sunlight, with a slight smile, and said, “Long time no see.”

The fox’s jade hand trembled, and the hairpin in her hand fell to the ground, breaking into two pieces. She didn’t care and instead looked at the figure in disbelief, wondering if her eyes were playing tricks on her due to excessive longing.

“Miss, the hairpin is broken. I’ll get another one,” the maid immediately picked up the broken hairpin and hurried out like a gust of wind, passing through Li Qingshan’s body.

The Fox Lady stared blankly at Li Qingshan in disbelief.

“After our separation in the supreme-ruler Realm, it seems that Lady Fox has forgotten about me,” Li Qingshan said, looking at the fox for a long time without speaking, unable to help but sigh.

“I haven’t forgotten,” the Fox Lady said eagerly, not caring whether the Li Qingshan in front of her was real or fake.

The maids who were helping the Fox Lady with her makeup looked at each other suspiciously. There was no one around.

“Miss, are you talking to us?” one of the maids asked softly.

“Let them all leave,” Li Qingshan said to the Fox Lady.

The fox’s eyes lit up, and in her watery eyes, there was an infinite radiance bursting out, full of joy, excitement, and jubilation…

The Li Qingshan she saw was real.

The Fox Lady suppressed the excitement in her heart and said lightly, “You all may leave. I don’t feel like dressing up now.”

The maidservants exchanged glances and eventually retreated slowly.

There was only Li Qingshan, the fox girl, and a little fox with a serious expression in the hall.

She knew it.

Li Qingshan’s friend must be a great beauty.

As expected.

She was really a great beauty.

The little fox was furious. She had to successfully transform this time.

She didn’t want to be a fox anymore.

Fortunately, the only psychological advantage the little fox had was that the Fox Lady was an Eight-Tailed Monster Fox and couldn’t compare to her.

Li Qingshan and the Fox Lady paid no attention to the little fox’s intense thoughts.

After the servant girl was dismissed, the fox girl immediately stood up excitedly. She looked at Li Qingshan with a smile as radiant as flowers. The coldness she had when she was putting on makeup in front of the mirror was gone. She said gently, “Why are you here?”

This voice and tone made the little fox frown.

Why did it sound so much like a conversation between lovers?

She looked at Li Qingshan suspiciously, wanting to see his reaction.

“I heard that you’re getting married, so I came to give you my congratulations,” Li Qingshan said with a smile.

“No, this wedding was arranged by Master and the others. I didn’t want to.” The Fox Lady was anxious. She was afraid that Li Qingshan would misunderstand. She took off the hairpin and the red flower on her head and looked at Li Qingshan nervously.

Seeing the Fox Lady’s movements, Li Qingshan’s heart skipped a beat. He knew he had messed up again, unintentionally provoking another girl.

“Don’t get excited, I was just joking. I came this time for her,” Li Qingshan immediately said, no longer joking around. It’s not good to tease a girl’s heart; it could lead to trouble.

He hadn’t even sorted out Hua Yun yet.

Besides, he didn’t remember flirting with the Fox Lady, did he?

The Fox Lady looked at the little fox in Li Qingshan’s arms, her eyebrows furrowing slightly, and said, “Why do I feel suppressed when facing her?”

Suddenly, the Fox Lady’s heart skipped a beat as she guessed the answer. She looked at Li Qingshan in surprise and said, “Is she… a Nine-Tailed Fox?”
