Chapter 130 The overwhelming wealth
As soon as the two stepped out of the formation, pairs of wolf-like eyes stared intently at them.
Yun Fuzhao felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being treated like prey. He knew that if Ge Kui gave the order, the wolves would swarm them and tear them to pieces.
"Ge Kui!" Yun Fuzhao shouted, "Don't forget what you promised me!"
Even formations erected within formations have a restraining effect.
In no time at all, Ge Kui had tidied himself up and looked presentable, showing no trace of the disheveled state he had been in the formation.
Surrounded by a pack of wolves, Gokui watched her quietly with his light-colored eyes.
His protector spoke up: "Your Majesty, these two are both cultivators; we cannot let them go."
"Yes, Your Majesty, this woman even used a formation to frame you; she is unforgivable!"
Yi Fang: "Did you kill Youya?! I've gone through all the dates these past few days, but I still can't find her."
"What?! She even killed our comrades?!"
"eye for eye!"
"eye for eye!!"
The atmosphere grew increasingly tense with their conversation.
The wolf in the very center never uttered a single word.
Yun Fuzhao began to regret it; she should have just let him freeze to death. Honestly, she'd never be a good person again.
Qu Wangzhi reassured her, "With your master here, nothing will happen to you."
His cultivation level isn't even as high as hers, so he should rest.
Just as Yun Fuzhao was about to draw his sword, a deep voice rang out: "Let them go."
The wolf pack was incredulous. "King?"
Gokui's voice turned several degrees colder, "What, you're not obeying my orders?"
Upon hearing this, the wolves all lowered their heads, daring not to say anything more.
Yun Fuzhao withdrew her hand. "Then we'll be going now," she said with a smug grin. "The eclipse was quite fun. I'll come again next time."
The wolf pack: "..."
I really want to hit her.
Yun Fuzhao swaggered out of the Eclipse.
She received a lot of stares along the way, but their eyes were filled with hatred, as if they wanted to tear her to pieces.
After they left, Ge Mingzhi asked, "Your Majesty, are you really just going to let them go like that?"
“She saved my life in the battle formation,” Gokui said, the lingering astringency of the fruit still present on his lips. “The wolf clan is clear about its grudges and favors. Since she saved me, Eclipse cannot harm her.”
Ge Mingzhi: "The disciples of the Boundless Sword Sect have already arrived in Qingqiu. According to the king's instructions, we cannot attack them on the battlefield?"
“I only promised her that I wouldn’t lay a hand on them, but I never said you couldn’t.”
"That king just now..."
Do you think the man next to her is just for show?
Ge Mingzhi was taken aback. "That man isn't in the Nascent Soul stage, so what's there to be afraid of?"
Gokui didn't answer that question. "Pass down the message and tell them to prepare to attack Qingqiu tomorrow."
"Yes!"
As soon as Yun Fuzhao returned to Qingqiu, Qi Huai immediately came to greet her, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing." Yun Fuzhao looked him over; he had lost a lot of weight in just a few days.
Qi Huai looked her over carefully and, after confirming that she was not injured, finally felt relieved.
"metropolitan!"
When the disciples of the Boundless Sword Sect heard that Yun Fuzhao had returned, they immediately rushed over.
In just a short while, the entrance to Qingqiu was packed with people.
The fox clan members watching couldn't help but speak up: "I heard that Yun Fuzhao came back from Eclipse. Everyone knows that Eclipse hates the human race. How could they possibly let her come back? In my opinion, they must have reached some kind of shady cooperation."
“I think so too. They’re not foxes, after all. How could they really fight for Qingqiu? Look at what use those humans have been these past few days.”
"This Boundless Sword Sect is no simple matter; they even cooperate with the Demon Clan. If they can cooperate with such an evil race, they themselves can't be any better."
Upon hearing this, a disciple of the Boundless Sword Sect couldn't help but exclaim, "If our sect leader hadn't held off the Wolf King, would Qingqiu still be safe and sound?"
"That's right, that's right! Everyone says ingrates are ingrates, but I think they're more like ingrates. Our sect has come from afar to help you, and you not only don't like us, but you also try to smear our sect!"
The disciples started arguing with the fox clan, and the commotion quickly attracted the attention of Yun Fuzhao and the others.
She and Qi Huai walked towards this direction.
As soon as I approached, I heard a disciple shout, "What a load of bull! I'm never coming back to Qingqiu! It's not even a fraction as good as the Human and Demon Realms!"
Qi Huai frowned. "What happened?"
Upon seeing Yun Fuzhao, the disciple immediately complained, "The sect leader and those foxes are always bullying us. We've been harassed by them a lot these past few days."
Before Yun Fuzhao could speak, Qi Huai spoke first, saying to the fox clan member beside him, "Elder Si, what did I tell you? You must not neglect them in the slightest. Have you taken my words to heart?"
Qi Huai had been so busy with the war these past few days that he hadn't had a moment to spare. In addition, he had just taken over Qingqiu and had a lot of things to do. He hadn't had the time to take care of his disciples, and that's how this happened.
Si Gaoge cupped his hands in greeting, “Young Master, their food, clothing, and lodging are all of the highest standard. Qingqiu has shown sufficient sincerity. However, I cannot control what the other fox clans think.”
Although he appeared respectful, his words were laced with sarcasm towards the human race, accusing them of being troublesome and difficult to please.
Qi Huai scoffed. This old man only dared to speak to him like that because his father had already ascended to immortality. Back when his father was still alive, this old man would have kept his tail between his legs like a fox.
"It seems I've been too nice to him." Qi Huai said expressionlessly, "Elder Si's attitude was improper. Lock him up in a secluded place to reflect on his actions."
"How dare you, you brat! When I was an elder in Qingqiu, you were probably playing in the mud somewhere! How dare you show such disrespect to your elders?!"
"Do you think I dare?" Qi Huai raised his hand. Two expressionless foxes walked up behind him. "Take him away!"
Enraged, Si Gaoge was about to teach this brat a lesson when a divine sense suddenly descended upon him. Caught off guard, he was forced to his knees.
The two foxes carried it down.
Qi Huai's move of making an example of someone was effective; the fox clan, who had previously harbored some reservations about Yun Fuzhao, wisely shut their mouths.
"I apologize; it was my poor hospitality." Qi Huai looked at the disciples of the Boundless Sword Sect. "Qi Huai apologizes to everyone here."
The disciples were flattered and overwhelmed that the dignified Fox Lord of Qingqiu would condescend to apologize to them.
The disciple's face flushed red. "I dare not accept such praise. Fox Master, there's no need for that. Upon reflection, we also have our faults."
Qi Huai smiled gently, revealing his approachable nature. He said in a warm voice, "After the war is over, I will personally refine a seventh-grade breakthrough pill for everyone as an apology for this."
The disciples of the Boundless Sword Sect gasped in astonishment. This incredible wealth was astounding!
Finally, Qi Huai looked at the disciple who had spoken earlier, as if he were genuinely seeking guidance: "In your opinion, young friend, is our Qingqiu inferior to the Demon Clan?"
