Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

Of course, just because the Beauty Clan Leader isn’t angry right now doesn’t mean this matter is settled.

Just wait!

Once we’re out of here, she’ll be sure to properly teach that guy a lesson.

And that dumb fox!

If it weren’t for Tu Jiujiu, how could she, as the Clan Leader of the Qingqiu Fox Race, suffer such humiliation?!

She is rational.

Since things have already happened, combined with Tu Jiujiu and her own situation, why not... just temporarily settle down here?

Originally, staying here made her feel a bit... embarrassed?

After all, a cultivation treasure like this is extremely important to any race, any power, and wouldn’t allow any outsiders, not even non-core members, to enter.

She was originally thinking of finding an excuse or paying some sort of price.

But now, she inexplicably felt at ease.

She held back!

However, the Beauty Clan Leader doesn’t understand a truth that even ordinary members of the Human Race know:

A kind person is bullied, a good horse is ridden. Some things, once they happen once, will happen a second time, a third time...

Moreover, enduring repeatedly will only further fuel a certain kind of arrogance.

”I’m going to see Jiujiu, you are not allowed to go over.”

The Beauty Clan Leader cast a cold glance at Qin Yu and said.

”Are you ordering me?”

Qin Yu felt a bit annoyed.

He realized that speaking kindly had no effect on this Beauty in front of him at all.

Might as well be... a bit more forceful?!

Perhaps it might even yield some unexpected rewards.

”You...”

The Beauty Clan Leader clenched her palm, instinctively wanting to teach a lesson, but in the end, she slowly loosened her grip.

”I’m not.”

The Beauty Clan Leader replied weakly, her voice filled with extreme reluctance.

As the Clan Leader of the Qingqiu Fox Race, when had she ever been manipulated like this?!

Seeing this Beauty actually take a step back, Qin Yu was quite surprised, but he knew when to stop pushing and didn’t press too hard.

Time is... abundant!

Seeing the Beauty Clan Leader arrive, Tu Jiujiu’s gaze immediately looked behind her, but didn’t see Brother Qin Yu; those clear eyes couldn’t help but show a hint of disappointment.

The Beauty Clan Leader frowned.

What’s this?!

Is the little fox treating her as an outsider again?

Damn human junior cultivator, and this dumb fox, do you know how much the Clan Leader has sacrificed for you?!

”Sister, come over and play together.”

Fortunately, Tu Jiujiu didn’t worry about the Beauty Clan Leader taking her out anymore, nor did she fear her like before, instead, she stepped forward and took her hand.

In the pool under the waterfall, several women resembling young girls were frolicking and playing, while a few elegant women were playing chess nearby.

Laughter and joy filled this space.

The Beauty Clan Leader glanced around, her mood somewhat relaxed.

This kind of life is truly pleasant.

Any one of these women here are stunningly beautiful; are they all Qin Yu’s alluring wives?

This junior cultivator really has good fortune!

...

The next day.

Empress Dowager came to Huayang Hall early in the morning, and upon seeing Qin Yu come out, she immediately approached.

”Yesterday, that little fox didn’t cling to you, did she?”

Empress Dowager eyed Qin Yu up and down, her beautiful eyes filled with deep caution.

”Empress Dowager doesn’t need to worry.”

Qin Yu gave a wry smile.

Why does he seem like he can’t resist a little temptation in her eyes?

”Is that so?”

Empress Dowager expressed skepticism.

Back then, she only looked away for a moment, and he ran off to sneak a peek at the Flower Fairy. Facing the naturally charming and clingy little fox, can Qin Yu really hold himself back?

Empress Dowager said no more, stepping forward to sniff Qin Yu carefully.

”Huh, it seems to have faded a lot.”

Empress Dowager was a bit surprised; the scent of the little fox was still on him but had undoubtedly weakened compared to the past two days.

Qin Yu felt a bit helpless too.

It wasn’t that he was deliberately restraining himself; it was because Tu Jiujiu’s sister almost always watched over her.

Even if the little fox seizes a chance to secretly cling for a while, her sister would immediately appear and stop it.

Precisely because of this, the delicate fragrance belonging to Tu Jiujiu on him had diminished significantly.

”Empress Dowager, is it okay now?”

Qin Yu felt his body becoming a bit stiff.

Faced with such close contact with Empress Dowager, he dared not move. A pair of dazzling Great Phoenix was right there, any slight movement might cause him to touch it.

This splendid view is indeed pleasing to the eye.

However, Qin Yu has genuine respect for this simple Empress Dowager, and unless by accident, he would never proactively offend her.

After all...

Someone might be watching all along.

”Hmph!”

Within the Lifebound Space, through a screen, the Beauty Clan Leader clearly saw the scene outside.

Seeing the respectful attitude Qin Yu showed towards Empress Dowager, she instantly felt some imbalance in her heart.

She knows the identity of this Great Yan Empress Dowager and understands that Empress Dowager’s cultivation isn’t simple, but her own status is equally noble, being the Clan Leader of the Qingqiu Fox Race, with undeniable strength.

So why is Qin Yu so respectful to Empress Dowager, yet so rude and even downright offensive to her?!

Really infuriating!

Nearby, Tu Jiujiu is lying on the grass with Lin Shuishui, looking utterly relaxed.

Luckily, Lin Shuishui and Zhao Mengli are here; otherwise, with Brother Qin Yu and the others gone, being alone with the Beauty Clan Leader would be incredibly boring.

The three girls are huddled together, whispering secrets to each other.

The Beauty Clan Leader’s attention is fixed on the light screen, unaware that the little fox is absorbing some very new knowledge.

”I wonder where that Great Fox has gone!”

The Empress Dowager grabs Qin Yu’s right hand, sniffing carefully, her face suddenly darkening: ”Qin Yu, did that Great Fox come looking for you too?”

”Tch.”

The Beauty Clan Leader looks at Qin Yu’s palm with contempt in her eyes.

This is the same offending hand that has insulted her twice!

Qin Yu is speechless.

The Empress Dowager’s sense of smell seems a bit too sharp, doesn’t it?

He only had two brief encounters with that beauty, merely a light touch, without any deep communication, yet she could sniff out even that?

”Oh no, oh no, you aren’t already seduced by her, are you?”

The Empress Dowager panics.

Just one day without staying by Qin Yu’s side, and the Great Fox took advantage of the chance?

How could she, being the Clan Leader of the Qingqiu Fox Race, be so shameless?

Really infuriating!

”Pah, who’s seducing him!”

In her Lifebound Space, the Beauty Clan Leader can’t hold back any longer and angrily retorts, her broad bosom heaving fiercely, more striking than the waves in the nearby lake.

What do you mean by ’seducing’?

It’s clearly this shameless Junior Cultivator who has defiled the Clan Leader!

If it weren’t for going outside and needing to touch Qin Yu, she’d rush out to confront the Empress Dowager face-to-face at once.

Making her so angry her grandmother hurts!

”Jiujiu’s elder sister, dignified and graceful, isn’t such a person.”

Qin Yu, with a serious face, explains: ”My contact with her was solely to take her inside to find Jiujiu.”

Hearing his explanation, the Beauty Clan Leader’s expression becomes slightly better, but she still emits a contemptuous snort.

Why would she need someone to speak on her behalf?!

She’s already disgusted with physical contact, how could she ever perform... seduction?

Utterly absurd!

”Really?”

The Empress Dowager frowns, knowing that entering the space requires touching Qin Yu.

However, Qin Yu’s explanation always makes her feel like he’s defending that Great Fox.

”Qin Yu, I’m telling you, that fox spirit approaching you has bad intentions; you mustn’t be led astray by them.”

The Empress Dowager said seriously, seemingly as if to scare Qin Yu, diligently saying: ”Think about it, if you’re led away by them, you’d have hundreds of fox spirits clinging to you...”

Hundreds of seductive foxes clinging to him?!

Qin Yu’s expression freezes.

The Empress Dowager’s vivid description actually sounds quite thrilling!

”Qin Yu, what are you thinking about?”

Seeing Qin Yu absent-minded, the Empress Dowager’s frown deepens.

She’s earnestly advising him, how can he be distracted?

With the Phoenix’s wings spread, Qin Yu quickly refocuses, ”Nothing, nothing.”

Speaking, he somewhat guiltily evades the Empress Dowager’s innocent eyes.

”Do you have unspeakable issues?”

The Empress Dowager becomes more vigilant: ”Did that Great Fox use her cultivation to force you into anything?!”

”Huh?”

Qin Yu is startled, Tu Jiujiu’s sister, more beautiful than a fairy, forcing him?

This... the scene is simply unimaginable!

The Beauty Clan Leader’s face turns red, finally experiencing the feeling of being falsely accused.

Yet, the fury in her heart has nowhere to vent!

Too infuriating!

As the Clan Leader of the Qingqiu Race, naturally, she can’t go out and have a fight with Great Yan’s Empress Dowager.

She silently marks this grudge against Qin Yu.

Evil Human Race, in the future, she must make him suffer to quelch her frustration!

”Tell me, and I will make the decision for you!”

The Empress Dowager said earnestly.

Qin Yu is someone she’s approved of, and is Little Ling’Er’s future groom, absolutely cannot allow those two foxes to bully him!

”There really is no such thing, Empress Dowager, you don’t need to worry.”

Qin Yu explains.

Speaking of which, it seems like he’s the one bullying that beauty.

In the Lifebound Space, he fears no one.

Of course, if Tu Jiujiu’s beautiful sister is indeed oppressing him with strength, as the Empress Dowager claims...

Ahem.

That might not be so bad.

No problem in feeling a bit wronged.

”Why don’t you go ask the Empress for instruction to let me in to protect you?”

The Empress Dowager has been curious about Qin Yu’s unique space for a long time, and now, with two foxes in there, she’s even more uneasy, immediately suggesting.

”The Empress has said that if she hears this again, she’ll forbid the Empress Dowager from stepping out of Jade Flower Palace.”

Qin Yu smiles awkwardly.

Actually, he’s long since considered the Empress Dowager as... his own side.

If not for the Empress Dowager’s status, plus the Empress’s attitude, he could agree anytime to bring the Empress Dowager into his Lifebound Space.
