"Wake up, little fox, wake up!"
It was almost afternoon the next day. Su Yan should have left the dormitory a long time ago. However, his aunt couldn't find him anywhere, which made her feel uneasy.
She went to his dormitory and lifted Su Yan's bedsheet. She saw Su Yan sleeping soundly, his body stiff and unable to move.
Seeing Su Yan's coat being taken off and his belt disappearing without a trace, as well as the familiar effect of the immobilizing technique, aunt was shocked.
She quickly went forward to break Su Yan's immobilizing spell and slapped his cheek to wake him up, "What happened? Did that old woman Huayu make you exhausted?"
It was hard to explain the relationship between her and Huayu, but seeing that immobilized Su Yan's clothes had disappeared and there seemed to be some nail scratches on his back, it was not difficult to guess what Su Yan had encountered after returning to his room last night.
"What did that crazy woman Huayu do to you? Tell me the details, and I'll send her to jail!"
"Ah..."
Su Yan woke up from his daze and looked at his aunt sitting by his bed and talking non-stop.
"Auntie, I saw the nine-tailed fox! What a huge soul body of a nine-tailed fox Grandma from the You Su clan!"
"You unlucky fox cub, are you bewitched? I was talking about Huayu. Why are you talking about the fox?"
Aunt pinched Su Yan's shoulder and shook him to wake the little fox.
"Ah..."
The impact of Nine-Tailed Fox Grandma's lantern smashing down on Su Yan had a slightly detrimental effect on his Qi Refining Level.
After about 12 hours of recovery, Su Yan still felt a little dizzy. But after Aunt's shaking, Su Yan was completely awake.
Su Yan, who had completely woken up, told her about his experience last night.
After returning to his dormitory, he was caught red-handed by Huayu, who was waiting for him. Just as she was about to remove his pants and engage in intimate activities, a ghostly figure emerged in his dormitory. This spectral being had nine ethereal tails and a white veil concealing her face. The ghost raised her hand to wipe away Huayu's figure, knocking her out with a lantern.
"What? That woman is so cunning?"
His aunt was surprised that Huayu did not torture Su Yan.
If Huayu had done it with Su Yan last night, then Aunt could have sent her to jail. However, she did not expect Huayu to be so cunning. She only took advantage of Su Yan and repeatedly stepped on the law's edge to test her boundaries.
If something had happened last night, Aunt could have sent Huayu to jail. Based on the age of the beast race, Su Yan was a child. If the nine-tailed fox's lifespan was calculated, Su Yan had just been weaned not long ago!
Unexpectedly, Huayu had so many tricks that Aunt could not easily deal with her.
In a real fight, Aunt had no advantage because her strength was too strong, and it was easy for the court to punish her.
Aunt was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
"Auntie, Huayu is not important. The key is the nine-tailed fox's ghost that suddenly appeared!"
Su Yan had a deep impression of Xi. She was a nine-tailed fox of the You Su Clan. From the color of her tail and fur, she was an old beast like the ancestor of the You Su Clan.
Nine-tailed foxes were born with one tail, two tails in the Foundation Level, three tails in the Aurous Core level, four in the Newborn Baby level, and so on.
A genuine nine-tailed fox appeared in front of Su Yan. Su Yan couldn't control his excitement.
Last night, his two balls could have left him if he had been careless.
If Su Yan had known that Nineth Ghost was one of the Ten Shamans of the Undying Kingdom and she was the ghost of the Nine-Tailed Fox, he would never have offended her.
The elders of the You Su Clan wanted to remove his balls. However, the nine-tailed fox Grandma ghost wanted to remove his penis and balls.
"I'm afraid she'll grab me and pull me up by the penis with a powerful move!"
Su Yan said with fear.
Compared to these two options, Su Yan believed that castration was the preferable choice. By undergoing this procedure, he would be spared from serving the emperor in the palace. Although he would no longer be able to father children, he could still live as an ordinary man.
Unless he reached Newborn Baby level, he could give up his current nine-tailed fox and black dragon hybrid body and change to another body to give birth normally.
But wasn't that nonsense? The beast race's abilities were basically all in their physical bodies, unlike humans, who could transfer their spells and divine arts through their bodies.
"....."
Aunt was silent for a while. After glancing at Su Yan's crotch, she said, "Indeed…you made a point, but there's a high chance that it won't happen because the Ninth Ghost can barely be considered the guardian of the Nine-Tailed Fox's descendants."
The Ninth Ghost of the Ten Shamans of the Undying Kingdom was said to be formed by the immortal soul of the first Empress of Xia Yu, who walked around the Xia Yu Dynasty to protect the descendants of the nine-tailed fox.
This was a legend. The legend was a verbal way of expressing the information one knew.
There must be some distortions between the legends and the truth. Otherwise, there would not have been so many assassinations of important princes and princesses in the history of Xia Yu.
This was also why Aunt did not want to tell Su Yan about the legend of the Nine Ghosts.
She was afraid that Su Yan would think that he had found someone to back him up, and he would become arrogant.
"Don't take the legend of the Nine Ghosts seriously.
Twelve years ago, a prince was assassinated and his blood was spilled on the official road as soon as he left the Imperial City... The legend of the Nine Ghosts is unreliable!"
Even the royal family had yet to fully understand the Nine Ghosts' rules, and Su Yan might not be able to get protection every time.
Moreover, if Nine Ghosts were so powerful, there would not be people from Nightmare Town trying to assassinate the royal family yearly.
However, the Beast Suppression Department would stop most of the assassins before they took action. Some of the assassinations were successful, proving the incapability of Wu Sheng Emperor.
Although those assassins would soon die, the actions of the people of Nightmare Town had proved Wu Sheng Emperor was wrong.
"As long as Grandma Fox doesn't castrate me."
Su Yan sighed in relief and transformed into his white fox form, rubbing his aunt's hand, "Auntie, don't worry. I don't like to cause trouble. If there's a gang fight, I'll transform into a little fox and hide in the girl's arms. That way, I can avoid most of the trouble in the world."
Su Yan did not like to fight, but he liked to watch other cultivators fight.
He had even built a treehouse in his home in Southern State to watch the cultivators fighting on the street.
Su Yan inherited his ancestors' abilities. The Nine-Tailed Fox and the Black Dragon were both divine beasts who were good at spelling techniques.
Under normal circumstances, Nine-Tailed Fox and Black Dragon would bombard the enemy with spells again and again. They would only personally go into battle after confirming that the spells could not kill the enemy.
"Auntie, Auntie..."
Just as Aunt was about to tell Su Yan the legend of the Nine Ghosts, Jiao Nanwu's voice came from afar. Aunt turned to look in the direction of the door.
"Just now, the top Courtesan of the Ten Thousand Flower Pavilion sent you a photographic crystal and said she hoped you could look at it personally."
Jiao Nanwu walked into Su Yan's bedroom with a diamond-shaped crystal in her hand. Her eyes lit up when she saw Little Fox lying on the bed.
She handed the crystal to his aunt, then held Little Fox's armpits with both hands and held him in her arms.
"Why did they give me the crystal?" Aunt looked at the diamond-shaped crystal in her hand and felt strange.
The photographic crystal was an expensive toy that could record images for 10-15 minutes. It was not a rare thing for Xia Yu. Girls usually use it to record their most beautiful faces and keep them in their memories.
Aunt used her divine sense to read it directly but did not inject any beast power to protect it.
The contents in the crystal made Aunt's face darkened.
