Chapter 236 The helplessness of the nine-tailed fox
After returning, Feng Xiyue took out a small jade bottle from the gem space and poured out a pill.
There is no such system as alchemy in this world. After all, they are transformed into spiritual beasts. Generally, "people" can only simply use various herbs. This pill comes from the gift of the mysterious voice in the Valley of Divine Silence.
Feng Xiyue was ecstatic with this pill: the voice that day gave him this to him, and he wanted to help his partners improve his bloodline qualifications, but after Yu Wen Lan, He Xianling and Yuan Tiangui, there was only one left.
And now this is just right for Su Yuwei...
This made Feng Xiyue wonder, could it be that the voice had already come to the point where he would have a few partners? Otherwise, why would he give himself four pills at that time?
But if the owner of that voice was so powerful, why did he say "I'll give you a chance to save your life"? He gave it and his life was saved. But why couldn't he slightly strengthen the orange shield? Otherwise, would he have been traumatized by the origin of the soul... And if Bai Sheng wasn't there at that time, he wouldn't have survived...
Oh no, he said he might see him again in the future, so I'll ask him later.
Feng Xiyue put away her fingers, held the pill in her palm, and went to find Su Yuwei excitedly. This time, she must scare those who look down on her!
...
Two months have passed, and tomorrow will be the sacrificial ceremony of the fox clan.
"Did you remember what I said?" Yu Wen Lan looked at the two people opposite him seriously.
Yuwen Mo and Yuwen Chuan nodded repeatedly: "Remember, it's been arranged for so long, so there will definitely be no problem."
"That's good." Yu Wen Lan said in a deep voice: "It depends on whether it will succeed tomorrow. I will definitely give our Xuanhu clan a cleansing innocence!"
The two of them said together: "Don't worry, we will help you!"
After the two left, Yu Wenlan sat by the window and carefully passed the plan in his mind, and finally relaxed after confirming that there was nothing wrong.
Tomorrow is the most critical time, success or failure is here.
Just as he was about to get up, the wind suddenly sounded outside the window. Yu Wenlan was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said respectfully: "Old ancestor, come late at night, what advice do you have?"
A figure suddenly flashed in the room, and the ancestor of the fox clan stared at him: "Why can you guess it's me?"
Yu Wenlan smiled and said, "The wind just now was different. It was obvious that there was an east wind blowing outside. The wind direction suddenly changed in an instant, but it only took a short time, which means that a master passed by."
"At the moment when my ancestors have already left the seclusion, the fox clan will not have masters from other forces. Then the only one among the fox clan who can approach me silently is the ancestor."
"Very good." The ancestor of the Fox clan carried his hands and turned around: "From the past, I knew that you would become an outstanding person. In addition, with the Diting Heaven and Earth Divine Art, you will definitely be the brightest existence of the younger generation of the Fox clan."
Yuwen Lan asked carefully: "That ancestor exiled our family to the lower realm, really for...?"
The old man nodded: "Well, with your intelligence, I must have known it."
"It's true to protect us..." Yu Wen Lan said gratefully: "Thank you for your good intentions."
"The wood is so beautiful that the wind will destroy it. The incident back then, coupled with your talent... makes the position of the Xuanhu clan very dangerous." The ancestor of the fox clan said lightly: "So I can only let you go to the lower realm, and you have indeed obtained a great opportunity in the lower realm."
"...Asolutely?" Yu Wen Lan always felt that the ancestor seemed to have something in his words.
"That's right..." The ancestor finally turned around and looked at him and said in a deep voice: "What do you think about tomorrow's sacrificial ceremony? Do you have any other plans besides revealing the truth of that year?"
Yuwen Lan replied: "I want to defeat Yuwen Tianchi with great dignity, but the subsequent inheritance..."
He felt a little difficult to speak, but he still said, "...I don't want to accept it, because accepting it means that he will become the leader and patron saint of the fox clan in the future and keep guarding the fox clan, right? I can't stay in the fox clan, so can I give up the inheritance to others?"
"I came here just to hope you will accept the inheritance." The ancestor of the fox clan said in a deep voice.
Yuwen Lan said hurriedly: "No, I can't stay in the fox clan guarding, I still want..."
"I know." The ancestor of the fox clan said in the intercept: "I don't need you to stay and guard."
"Ah?" Yu Wenlan was stunned.
The leaders of the Fox Clan all dynasties were selected at the sacrificial ceremony, and the previous ancestor personally passed on the nine-tailed fox bloodline to him, and this person became the guardian saint of the new generation of the Fox Clan.
The nine-tailed fox rarely comes forward to interfere in the tribe's affairs in person, and should not leave the family too far. Although it is the supreme leader of the fox clan, he has no freedom and can only stay in the family for life. He will only take action when the family is in trouble.
Now the ancestor said that he would pass on his inheritance to himself, but he didn't have to guard the family himself? How could this be possible? If the fox clan encounters danger and the nine-tailed fox guardian god is not here, it may be a danger of extermination!
"After the fall of the previous generation, each generation of nine-tailed foxes has to shoulder the task of protecting the tribe for about three hundred years. In about three hundred years, the lifespan of the nine-tailed foxes is almost at the end. At this time, the new generation of successors will be selected through the sacrificial ceremony, and this cycle will be repeated."
The ancestor of the fox clan sighed and said, "The nine-tailed fox clearly has the bloodline of an ancient beast. If he continues to practice, he can possess the divine power of heaven. According to the rules, he can only stay in the fox clan for life. When his cultivation reaches the venerable, he will stop and wait quietly for the day when he turns into loess."
Yuwen Lan was silent. This was another reason why he was unwilling to accept the inheritance. Even if he had never met Xiyue, he wanted to live a free life with Xianling in the future. How could he be bound to the fox clan?
"The ancestors who set this rule may want to ensure that the descendants of the fox clan will prosper forever, but they do not know the possibility of killing the fox clan and further."
The ancestor sighed: "And... the fox tribe in recent years has not developed according to the expectations of his ancestors. Thousands of years of comfort have led to the fox tribe killing each other, just like the previous Red Fox tribe, who have used all means to eliminate the geniuses in the tribe. Although I strictly prohibit killing each other, their methods are beyond my imagination, and they are all used to conspiracy, assassination and ambushing."
"So this kind of over-protection cannot make the fox clan prosperous, but it declines from generation to generation. Now it is difficult for a master of saints to appear, but he is extremely selfish." The ancestor looked out the window deeply: "It's time to change..."
Yuwen Lan was silent, not knowing what to say, after all, he couldn't just argue about such things. The Nine-tailed Fox guarded the family was a rule left by his ancestors. Even if it was wrong, it could not be said that he should change it as his identity.
