Chapter 460: Chapter 311: The Value of Nascent Soul_2
Boom!
With a thunderous roar, millions of ripples trembled, sweeping across all directions, instantly shattering the furnishings within the palace, leaving only the tableware and chairs within two yards around Zhao Sheng completely intact.
“Hmph!” Zhao Sheng snorted coldly, his eyes bursting with divine light, about to retaliate.
At that moment, a pink silhouette flew into the hall from outside, looking at him with a gentle smile, suddenly filling the hall with a lively beauty as if spring had bloomed.
Such an enthralling beauty that captivated all!
Upon seeing the face of the Fox Fairy, Zhao Sheng couldn’t help but praise inwardly, instantly dissipating his annoyance.
“Shenglong, do not be offended, I was merely greeting you,” the Fox Fairy said as she moved forward with lotus steps, her voice brimming with a smile.
“Who could it be? So, it’s the senior Fox Fairy. Your joke is too much for anyone below the Nascent Soul to handle; they’d either be heavily injured or dead!” Zhao Sheng stood up, his expression a mix of jest and seriousness.
The Fox Fairy, avoiding a direct answer, waved her sleeve, and a whirlwind arose in the hall, howling as it cleared all the furnishings.
Then, from her sleeves, she released two beams of white light, which flew up and transformed into two massive White Jade thrones and landed in the center of the hall.
“Shenglong, please take a seat!”
On hearing this, a flash darted through Zhao Sheng’s eyes, followed by a light smile. He walked over with ease and settled into the throne.
Seeing this, the Fox Fairy subtly nodded.
Her figure floated up and also landed on another throne; her skirt splayed out, revealing a hint of fair skin.
“Shenglong, I am aware of your purpose here. Your family is fine and is currently on their way here,” the Fox Fairy said, smiling.
Zhao Sheng smiled in response and said heartily, “That’s good news. Thank you for keeping a watch over them. Your kindness, for now, is noted.”
The corners of the Fox Fairy’s mouth curved up as she spoke softly, “If you are not in a hurry, do not rush away. The nearby scenic beauties and spiritual realms of Sky Fox City are numerous. You might as well stay here for a while to allow me the honor of being your host.”
Zhao Sheng was stirred by her words and chuckled lightly, “The scenic beauties can be appreciated later. I just tasted your clan’s Heavenly Fox White Hair, indeed leaving a lingering aftertaste, unforgettable.
Would the Fox Fairy be willing to part with it? Allow me to trade for more White Hairs Treasure Tea.”
Her eyes glittered, and she jovially declared, “It’s just some White Hair; no need to mention trade. I will give you a few kilograms as a gift.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng sensed an understanding in his heart and accordingly smiled, “Then I thank the Fox Fairy.”
“Shenglong, you are too courteous! Such trivial items should not weigh on your mind. I still hope that you will not bear ill will towards our clan for the Fire Saber Tribe affair,” she said.

Zhao Sheng paused then casually flicked his fingers, speaking lightly, “Since ancient times, the world has been a place where the strong prevails. The Fire Saber Tribe, being weaker, had to face this tribulation. If this tribe learns from their experiences, they might have a chance to rise again. I merely hope that your clan does not completely annihilate them!”
These words greatly pleased the Fox Fairy, and she couldn’t help but smile slightly, saying, “My Heavenly Fox Clan fears no challenges, nor do we stoop to kill a bunch of defeated dogs. As long as you, Shenglong, do not interfere, I hereby state that from now on, our clan will no longer pursue the remnants of the Fire Saber Tribe.”
“Good, with the Fairy’s words, I can also explain to Feng’er and the others,” Zhao Sheng nodded immediately, commending her.
The Fox Fairy pursed her lips, her charm radiating.
“Shenglong, you are quite the charmer. The fox women of my clan are each passionate and empathetic. If you are interested, feel free to pick a few. Whether you take them as concubines or keep them as maids is entirely up to you,” she said.
Zhao Sheng pondered silently, thinking about how to decline.
At that moment, Hu Canmang stealthily peeked his face out from the hall entrance, smiling ingratiatingly at the two Nascent Soul Ancestors.
What shame for such a high-ranking Golden Core Main Priest to stoop so low, except for the Ghost Fox Clan, no one else would.
“What is it?” the Fox Fairy asked with a frown, displeased.
Seeing this, Hu Canmang trembled, scared and about to kneel down.
Zhao Sheng suddenly released a strand of Divine Thought, stopping Hu Canmang’s action, and turned his head towards the Fox Fairy, chuckling, “Senior Fox Fairy, please don’t blame him. It should be my family arriving at the hall.”
Oh!
The Fox Fairy’s gaze flashed, and she unleashed her Divine Thought, suddenly enveloping dozens of kilometers around and instantly “saw” Dao Yanfeng and the others outside the hall.
At this moment, she was secretly annoyed; had she known Shenglong would be so amicable, she wouldn’t have instructed to bring them here so soon.
“Little Three, quickly invite the guests in!”
With a cold shout from the Fox Fairy, Hu Canmang swiftly disappeared from the palace door, startled.
Shortly after, Dao Yanfeng led his entire family into the palace.
In the past decade or so, Dao Yanfeng had faced many tribulations, and his face was now covered in wrinkles, his hair speckled with white, clearly entering his old age.
Meanwhile, Hua Wen and Hua Wu, both past their forties, still had distinct appearances. Hua Wen retained a face as handsome as jade, elegant and dashing, resembling someone in his twenties.
On the contrary, Hua Wu, standing in the palace, was completely the image of a dignified middle-aged man, with a temperament much more mature and composed than his brother’s.
This was because Hua Wen possessed a Spirit Root, while Hua Wu was merely a mortal.
The difference in their Spirit Roots led Zhao Sheng’s two sons down drastically different paths, with their statuses within the Fire Saber Tribe also greatly diverging.
In comparison, Hua Wen’s future held boundless prospects, whereas Hua Wu was much more grounded in reality, and at best would live a little over a hundred years before being buried beneath the yellow soil.
The biggest similarity between the two was that they both had numerous wives and concubines, each enjoying the blessing of many beauties.
The reunion of family after a long separation brought only excitement.
After some exchanges, Zhao Sheng calmed everyone from their excited and thrilled states.
Glancing over, Zhao Sheng’s eyebrows lifted as he saw seven or eight grandsons eagerly looking at him, and several of his son’s wives and concubines were visibly pregnant.
Seeing his lineage slowly flourish, Zhao Sheng felt a comforting satisfaction.
However, one thing troubled him, both young rascals had fallen for the “beauty trick”, among the pregnant wives and concubines were fox women.
Members of the Ghost Fox Clan were notably distinctive in appearance, best described with the phrase: “ugly men and seductive women”.
Male Ghost Foxes all had fox-like faces, appearing sly and deceitful, while fox women naturally had oval faces, fair skin, and graceful figures, enchantingly beautiful.
Out of the corner of his eye, Zhao Sheng caught the Fox Fairy smiling contentedly, seemingly very pleased to witness such a scene.
Seeing this, he couldn’t help but shake his head quietly, forced to admit the Ghost Fox Clan was cunningly adept.
…
Two days later, a hundred-foot-long Platinum Flying Disc soared into the sky from Sky Fox City, quickly rising into the vast Cloud Sea and vanishing without a trace.
Watching the fleeting Flying Disc, Hu Canmang turned his head back to look at the smiling face of the Fox Immortal Ancestor and cautiously asked, “Ancestor, are you really letting them go so easily? What excellent hostages they would make!”
The Fox Fairy tugged at her skirt hem and spoke indifferently, “Little Three, are you questioning my decision?”
Upon hearing this, Hu Canmang’s hair stood on end, and he quickly knelt down, his voice trembling, “I wouldn’t dare!”
“Stand up,” commanded the Fox Fairy, waving her hand gently and a wave of mana helped Hu Canmang to his feet.
“Little Three, don’t be anxious, he will be mine sooner or later!”
The lingering sound of her voice was still in the air, but the Fox Fairy’s figure had already departed, leaving only a sweating Hu Canmang behind.
…
Zhao Sheng, along with his family, traveled on the Flying Disc, covering ten thousand miles in a day.
It took them two days to reach deep into Candle Light Mountain, to Shenglong Cave Mansion.
The Ghost Fox Clan indeed knew how to please!
When they arrived at the cave mansion, the entire place was evidently cleaned up and arranged just as it had been in earlier years, with thoughtfully provided generous gifts.
There were ten pounds of Heavenly Fox White Hair, including nearly nine ounces of over a thousand years old White Hairs Treasure Tea.
It was well known that an ounce of thousand-year White Hair could sell for millions of Spirit Stones at ease.
However, the Ghost Fox Clan always gave, never sold.
To proactively charm Zhao Sheng, the Fox Fairy had offered nine ounces right off the bat.
This demonstrated the value of a Nascent Soul, showing the full sincerity of the Ghost Fox Clan.
Moreover, aside from the original site of Fire Saber City which couldn’t be returned, the Ghost Fox Clan proactively presented a map of a thousand-mile territory, its implicit meaning clear.
