Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 939 - 91: Ill-Fated Romance

"Father, before Uncle Song died, he asked me to tell you a piece of news upon my return. Yun Sheng, the Heavenly Fox Clan’s Saintess, suddenly appeared on the Wuji Continent and was auctioned off as a female slave, her whereabouts currently unknown. However, the Heavenly Fox Clan Leader has never had a good impression of that daughter, which benefits that coquettish woman Hu Linglong," Hei Linlin had never had much affection for the Heavenly Fox Clan.

It didn’t matter whether it was the rarely seen Yun Sheng or the Heavenly Fox Clan’s Hu Linglong.

Additionally, because of Yun Sheng, Hei Linlin hated the Heavenly Fox Clan even more. She simply felt that the women of the Heavenly Fox Clan were inherently no good.

If it weren’t for Uncle Song repeatedly reminding her earlier to tell Hei Yao about this matter upon returning to the Eight Desolates Continent, she wouldn’t have bothered with it at all.

However, Hei Linlin did know a few things about Yun Sheng’s situation.

Because Yun Sheng was a natural wastrel, she was always bullied and despised in the Heavenly Fox Clan. It was said that even her biological father, Hu Qianqiu, never looked at her directly, letting her be bullied.

This time, when Yun Sheng disappeared, the clan members of the Heavenly Fox Clan only made a token search before quickly giving up.

And Hu Linglong’s father had already announced to the public that his daughter Hu Linglong was about to inherit the position of the Heavenly Fox Saintess.

"Oh, such a thing happened. If that old fellow Hu Qianqiu knew his daughter was auctioned off as a female slave, he’d probably be furious. In a few days, it will be the day for the Beast God Altar’s blessing ceremony; let this news be a gift to Hu Qianqiu," Hei Yao was pleased upon hearing this, temporarily forgetting about the injury on his hand.

Seeing her father in a good mood, Hei Linlin seized the opportunity to ask, "Father, there’s something I don’t understand. Why can’t the Heavenly Fox Clan and the Hei Qilin Clan come together? What would happen if they did?"

"Why are you asking about this all of a sudden? Could it be that a member of the Qilin Clan wants to marry a Heavenly Fox Woman? Hmph, which good-for-nothing could it be?" Hei Yao’s face turned grim upon hearing this.

The matter of Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu being infatuated with Yun Sheng had yet to be told to Hei Yao by Hei Linlin.

Especially Ye Beiming, who had just killed Director Song; her father still harbored a grudge against him. If she told him rashly now that Ye Beiming was entangled with the Heavenly Fox mixed blood wretch, her father would likely, in a fit of rage, personally go to Wuji Continent to kill Ye Beiming.

Afraid that her beloved would be in trouble, Hei Linlin vaguely replied, "Father overthinks; Linlin is just curious. Father gets along well with the leaders of the other six clans, only at odds with the Heavenly Fox Clan Leader, which is why I asked."

Every five years, the Bahuang Tribe conducts a clan competition, and the Hei Qilin Tribe has been number one in these clan competitions for a hundred years.

All the previous Hei Qilin Clan Leaders, including Hei Yao, had, by exploiting the power of the Hei Qilin Tribe, suppressed the Heavenly Fox Clan vehemently.

This suppression had caused the Heavenly Fox Clan to decline year after year over the past few centuries, reducing the time their clan members could enter the Beast God Altar for training, resulting in each generation being weaker than the last.

"Linlin, you’ve grown up, and you should almost be aware of some things. Some past events between the Hei Qilin Clan and the Heavenly Fox Clan are recorded on the stele in the Hei Qilin Clan’s forbidden land. Come with me and take a look," Hei Yao took Hei Linlin and entered the Hei Qilin Clan’s forbidden land.

Inside the forbidden land, there were many combat skills and some genealogies of the Hei Qilin, along with a pitch-black, night-like Qilin stele.

Upon seeing the stele, Hei Linlin realized it was identical to the one she’d seen in the Kirin King Tomb, down to the inscriptions that matched completely, except the writings on this Qilin stele were intact.

In the Dutian Beast Blood Realm, the stone stele in the Kirin King Tomb had a broken corner, whereas this one in the Qilin forbidden land was whole.

"The clan rules were not set by your father or the previous clan leaders but were personally established by the Eight Desolate Qilin King, or you could say this is an Eight Desolate Qilin King’s curse. Any member of the Qilin Clan, as long as they have a drop of blood, cannot escape the Eight Desolate Qilin King’s curse. The precedent is set, many have fallen victim to this curse, meeting bad ends," Hei Yao said with profound emotion while gazing at the stele.

Moving forward for a closer look, Hei Linlin’s pupils constricted sharply upon reading the last line.

"I am Ye Xiu, the Eight Desolate Beast Clan Leader; should any of our clan members obtain the Ancient Qilin Relics by chance, mastering the Kirin Battle Technique, transforming into the Kirin Battle Body, they would become invincible. Qilin Ancient Teachings: None of our people shall unite with the Heavenly Fox Clan, any violator..."

Her heart began to thump wildly.

Hei Linlin suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to laugh aloud at the sky.

Ye Beiming, won’t you wed Yun Sheng alone?

Do you not realize, if you marry that woman, both you and she will be doomed?

Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming are fated to be star-crossed lovers; they’re destined to meet but not to be together.

Destiny, this truly is destiny; as long as a drop of Qilin blood flows within Ye Beiming, he will never escape this misfortune in his lifetime.

Hei Yao was unaware of what Hei Linlin was thinking.

"Linlin, your father’s aware you are saddened by Uncle Song’s matter. But be careful not to let it affect your cultivation. These days, take the Black Qilin Relics to the Beast God Altar, and do not leave the Eight Desolates Continent until you break through to the Martial Emperor," Hei Yao had high expectations for Hei Linlin.

Although Dugu Xiu and Ye Beiming were regarded as his offspring, Hei Yao, along with the clan elders, firmly believed that only the Hei Qilin Royal Family with pure blood could fully integrate the Qilin King Relics.

Hei Yao, being Hei Linlin’s father, understood his daughter’s temperament the best.

Hei Linlin, who always got her way, stumbled over Ye Beiming, and with her character, she would never easily let go of Ye Beiming.

Matters of the heart are the most obstructive to cultivation.

Before the Eight Desolate Beast Clan returns to the Wuji Continent, Hei Yao needed to ensure that Hei Linlin’s cultivation reaches another level.

Though reluctant in her heart, under her father’s strict gaze, Hei Linlin was forced to comply, unwillingly taking the Black Qilin Relics to go into closed training at the Beast God Altar.

After Hei Linlin left, Hei Yao sneered several times.

"Someone, spread the word that the Heavenly Fox Saintess was trampled by humans on the Wuji Continent. Moreover, send another message to the Wuji Continent, informing those old men at the Summoning Court that the bloodline of the Heavenly Fox Clan has appeared on the Wuji Continent."

Hu Qianqiu, Heavenly Fox Clan, after thousands of years, shouldn’t you repay the blood debt your Heavenly Fox Clan owes to our Black Qilin Clan?

A few warriors from the Hei Qilin Tribe, after receiving orders, set off in completely different directions.

Days later, news spread swiftly about the Heavenly Fox Saintess being sold off as a female slave and the reappearance of the Heavenly Fox bloodline on the Wuji Continent after many years.

Not long after these two pieces of news spread, Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming were escorted back to Great Zhou by Divine Wind.

After Ye Beiming’s partial beastification, the depletion was severe, and even after a few days of arriving at Great Zhou, he was still in a coma.
