Honghuang Taihuang

Chapter 289 Qingqiu, Si Ying, Tushan

Inside the Ice and Snow Palace, Taiwei sat on a silver throne, looking at Qingqiu, Siying, and Tushan who entered the palace. Taiwei said, "Now the Heavenly Fox Clan's fortune can no longer support the birth of more Golden Immortals. It is time for the Heavenly Fox Clan to begin its expansion."

"Ten thousand years from now, the three of you will each lead a squad of soldiers into the Tianluo Ranch and conquer all the creatures of this ranch. If any of them have good bloodline potential, they can also be recruited as members of my Tianhu clan."

"Is it finally going to begin? My spies that I've planted in Tianluo Ranch for so long are finally going to have a chance to shine."

Wearing a moon-white palace dress, with her shoulders and arms bare, Si Ying spoke in a sweet voice, her peach-blossom eyes looking up at Taiwei, making no attempt to hide the fervor and adoration in them.

From the very first moment Si Ying met Taiwei, the progenitor of the Celestial Fox Clan, she had already placed her entire heart and soul in him. The reason she was able to become the first Golden Immortal was because Si Ying wanted Taiwei to be the closest person to her.

"Fox Lord, I have no objection to expansion, after all, this ice plain can no longer support the cultivation of many of our Heavenly Fox Clan members. But why is it ten thousand years from now?"

The tall and slender Qingqiu, dressed in a light green dress with a flame pattern between her brows, looked at Taiwei and asked a question. In her opinion, if the Heavenly Fox Clan wanted to expand, it should subdue all the races of the Heavenly Luo Ranch as quickly as possible.

Only by uniting the power of all races in Tianluo Ranch into one force before the Witch Clan becomes aware of it can they possibly withstand the pressure from the Xuanming Tribe. No one knows what will happen during the ten thousand-year gap.

"Because I want to take this opportunity to defeat the Xuanming Ancestral Witch who rules this Xuanming Continent. Without defeating the Ancestral Witch, the Tianhu Clan cannot gain the recognition of all races in the Tianluo Ranch."

"Without the defeat of the Witch Clan, the myriad creatures of this pasture, living in a daze, will never truly submit to the command of our Heavenly Fox Clan."

"What I need is a fearless, iron-blooded army that dares to fight to the death with the Witch Clan, not spineless trash. Therefore, there must be a great battle between me and the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, and I must win this battle."

Taiwei looked at Qingqiu with a smile on his face and explained, "Of the three—Qingqiu, Siying, and Tushan—Qingqiu is the one I have chosen to become the future leader of the Heavenly Fox Clan. In the future, I will be gathering the power of all races to fight against the Witch Clan, so I won't have much time to manage the Heavenly Fox Clan."

Qingqiu is perfectly suited in terms of both personality and cultivation, making her the ideal successor to Taiwei. Qingqiu is the fox lord chosen by Taiwei.

Si Ying was chosen by Taiwei to assist Qingqiu. Qingqiu's personality was too upright, making them susceptible to scheming, while Si Ying was more flexible and could help Qingqiu ward off some conspiracies. She was the Yin Master of the Heavenly Fox Clan in Taiwei's plan.

As for Tu Shan, he exists solely for war and slaughter; he was chosen by Taiwei to be the military leader in charge of the Heavenly Fox Clan's military forces.

As long as these three join forces, the Celestial Fox Clan can continue to develop. Even without Taiwei, the Celestial Fox Clan can still advance under their leadership.

When Qingqiu and Siying heard that Taiwei was going to fight Xuanming Ancestral Witch, their expressions changed. Only Tushan remained indifferent as always, without any change in expression.

The Celestial Fox Clan, having received meticulous instruction from Taiwei, naturally knew that the Twelve Ancestral Witches were the Twelve Primordial True Saints in the Divine Witch Great World. They also knew that the Twelve Ancestral Witches could mobilize the Heavenly Dao power of the Divine Witch Great World to a certain extent, thus possessing combat power comparable to the top Primordial True Saints of the Primordial Great World.

Taiwei was merely a True Saint of the Taiyi realm, and the difference in rank was even more difficult to overcome than the difference in cultivation. However, if Taiwei, a True Saint of the Taiyi realm, were to truly fight against the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, the chances of his defeat would be extremely high.

"Fox Lord, should we wait a little longer? You should be more aware of the gap between the Innate True Saint and the Primordial True Saint. If we confront the Xuanming Ancestral Witch head-on now, your chances of winning are not high."

Si Ying looked at Tai Wei with a look of anxiety on her beautiful face. Beside Si Ying, Qing Qiu also frowned. The development of the Heavenly Fox Clan had just begun to get on track. If something happened to Tai Wei at this time, it would be a huge blow to the Heavenly Fox Clan.

"Hahaha, you all know the huge gap between the Innate True Saint and the Primordial True Saint, how could I not know? In these 100,000 years, I have not only been preaching to you."

As Taiwei spoke, his aura began to gradually manifest. The surging aura, like a silver tide, engulfed the bodies of Qingqiu, Siying, and Tushan. The sublime aura, far surpassing that of a True Saint, caused the expressions of Qingqiu, Siying, and Tushan to change drastically.

Nine silver-white fox tails appeared behind Taiwei. The Taiyin Heavenly Blade on the first fox tail shone with a cold and chilling light like a crescent moon. The Xuanwang Iron Halberd on the second fox tail surged with wind and thunder, violent and fierce.

They had naturally seen the two treasures of creation before, but in addition to the two treasures of creation on the two fox tails, a large axe wrapped with a white jade dragon appeared on the third silver fox tail.

The powerful and profound aura hung overhead like thousands of mountains. Just looking at this great axe made Qingqiu, Siying, and Tushan feel an indescribable sense of oppression. Without a doubt, this great axe was also a treasure of creation.

Besides the Taiyin Heavenly Blade, the Xuanwang Iron Halberd, and the Great Yue, there were also two blurry human figures coiled on the fourth and fifth fox tails of Taiwei. Although they were not treasures of creation, the aura of these two figures was no weaker than that of the Taiyin Heavenly Blade, the Xuanwang Iron Halberd, and the Great Yue.

With the return of the five vessels to their rightful places, Taiwei's own rank has reached the level of a Primordial True Saint. Although he is not yet a top-tier Primordial True Saint, it is enough.

This time, when he was promoted to the Primordial True Saint again, Taiwei also discovered that the great power of the Demon Clan's destiny still remained in his body. It was because of this Demon Clan's destiny that Taiwei was able to successfully transform into the Primordial True Saint without experiencing any tribulations. Such a thing would be impossible in the prehistoric world.

Taiwei guessed that other chosen ones of the demon race should also be able to transform into Primordial True Saints at the fastest speed without experiencing any tribulations. Only Primordial True Saints of the same level could contend with the Twelve Ancestral Witches who were also Primordial True Saints.

Even if Taiwei, who is already a Primordial True Saint, is no match for Xuanming Ancestral Witch, he will definitely not die easily. Qingqiu and Siying are confident of this. Tushan, who is standing to the side, looks at Taiwei with a bright light in his eyes.

Among Qingqiu, Siying, and Tushan, Tushan received the most instruction from Taiwei and also understands Taiwei the best.

Seeing the smile on Taiwei's face, Tushan knew that Taiwei had absolute confidence in defeating Xuanming Ancestral Witch this time. Tushan also believed that Taiwei could definitely defeat Xuanming Ancestral Witch. Tushan had absolute confidence in Taiwei.

"According to my estimation, I will be able to defeat most of the Xuanming tribe in ten thousand years. At that time, you will leave the ancestral court and subdue the many tribes in the Tianluo Ranch."

"Those who agree to join will be made to swear an oath by the established demon race. The binding of their primordial spirits will prevent them from rebelling. As for those who are unwilling to join, they will all be killed. The future world of gods and witches seems to belong to the demon race and the witch race. There is no need for these opportunists."

Taiwei's voice was as cold as snow. Qingqiu, Siying, and Tushan agreed and bowed to Taiwei. Siying and Tushan then turned and left to gather the members of the Heavenly Fox Clan and plan their expansion ten thousand years later.

Qingqiu, with a furrowed brow, walked to Taiwei's side, looked up at him, and asked, "Fox Lord, can we succeed?"

"The Witch Clan has been informing the Great Heaven and Earth of the Divine Witch for billions of years. All the former myriad races and numerous powerful beings at the Taiyi realm have been successively defeated by the Witch Clan. Twelve Primordial True Saints—how can we possibly cope with such power? We…"

"Qingqiu, don't you believe me?" Taiwei interrupted Qingqiu, looking at the worry on her face, a confident smile appeared on his own: "Qingqiu, remember, nothing in this world is impossible!"

"Man proposes, God disposes. For us cultivators, defying fate is the most interesting and rewarding thing. Qingqiu, don't be afraid. I have absolute confidence, and we are not alone in fighting against the Witch Clan."

"You should know that I am not a being born from the native land of this divine and witch-like world, nor are you. The primordial world is the eternal world that gave birth to us, and I am the chosen one of the demon race by the Heavenly Dao of the primordial world."

"But I am not the only chosen one of the demon race. When we are on the move, other chosen ones of the demon race are also on the move."

"There are a few among them who are no weaker than me. My great battle with the Xuanming Ancestral Witch was a signal I sent to them. Before long, the Witch Clan will be too busy to take care of themselves. That will be the time for the Demon Clan to sound the horn of counterattack and resist the Witch Clan."

This was the first time Taiwei had spoken to Qingqiu about the destiny of the demon race, and Qingqiu's face showed a look of shock.

Qingqiu, with his profound understanding of the vastness and power of the Taiwei realm, knew that if there were more than three such beings, even if they couldn't overthrow the Wu clan, they would definitely have a huge impact on the Wu clan's rule.

Knowing this, Qingqiu was no longer worried. Taiwei had more trump cards than she had imagined, and his considerations were more comprehensive than she had.

The Celestial Fox Clan's more than 70,000 members began a full mobilization. Apart from the tens of thousands of young Celestial Foxes who did not yet have sufficient strength and remained in the Ice Plains Ancestral Court, all Celestial Foxes at the Celestial Immortal realm were involved in this major operation of the Celestial Fox Clan.

Over the course of ten thousand years, Taiwei began to continuously refine his Dao foundation. Although the object that carried the five fox tails allowed Taiwei to reach the level of a Primordial True Saint, the Xuanming Ancestral Witch was also a Primordial True Saint and had ruled the Xuanming Continent for countless years.
