Mythical Luo, starting with the fox spirit

The two little fox demons, Tu Shan Ya Ya and Tu Shan Rong Rong, stared blankly at the scene that resembled burning mountains and boiling seas.

"Ah! Sister, save me!" Tu Shan Ya Ya suddenly cried out as the fox demon plummeted straight down into the scorched earth below.

Tu Shan Honghong hurriedly looked up and saw Tu Shan Rongrong grabbing Tu Shan Yaya by the collar, slowly flying her to the grassy bank. The riverbank, scorched by the high temperature, was now a patch of ashes, and a gentle breeze stirred up a cloud of ash.

"Can I enter your Tushan?" Yang Ping'an asked, looking down at the fox demons from mid-air.

"Sister, can you sense what level of cultivation this person has?" Tu Shan Rongrong secretly communicated with Tu Shan Honghong using her fox mind technique.

"Better than me." Tu Shan Honghong looked up at Yang Ping'an and replied to Tu Shan Rongrong without changing her expression.

"Oh! Then we shouldn't make him our enemy." Tu Shan Rongrong, her mind racing, advised Tu Shan Honghong. Currently, Tu Shan Honghong is the strongest in Tu Shan; ordinary demon kings wouldn't even last a few punches from her. Hasn't this person already become a demon emperor?

Tu Shan Rongrong squinted at Yang Ping'an thoughtfully. Was the human demon emperor still relying on the power of his magic weapon? But none of that mattered; strength was strength.

"Well, I'll leave the rest to my little sister." Tu Shan Hong Hong remained silent for a long time before turning around and flying to her two younger sisters' side. She then sent a telepathic message to Tu Shan Rong Rong with a dim look in her eyes.

Tu Shan Rongrong nodded slightly to Tu Shan Honghong, indicating that she would take over the rest of the business. Tu Shan Yaya looked at Tu Shan Rongrong, then at her older sister, wondering what kind of riddle the two of them were playing behind her back.

"I am Tu Shan Rongrong. May I ask how I should address you?" Tu Shan Rongrong asked with a smile.

"Can you represent Tushan?" Yang Ping'an also flew down and stood opposite the three Tushan sisters, holding his sword.

"Yes." Before Tu Shan Rongrong could speak, Tu Shan Honghong directly acknowledged her qualifications.

"Yang Ping'an of the Yang family, the Heavenly Eye." Yang Ping'an didn't beat around the bush and directly announced his name.

"So it's the renowned Heavenly Eye Clan. Young Master Yang, I've long admired your name," Tu Shan Rongrong said with a flattery. She glanced at Yang Ping'an, who was still carrying his sword, and a thoughtful glint flashed in her narrowed eyes.

"I have long admired Tushan, and seeing it today, it is indeed extraordinary." Yang Ping'an looked at Tushan Rongrong's smile and, not wanting to offend someone who was smiling, praised the beautiful scenery of Tushan.

As the saying goes, "a sedan chair needs two people to carry it," the two exchanged compliments, easing the tension between them and making the relationship less strained than before.

Tu Shan Honghong remained expressionless. She was skilled at using power to solve problems, and seeing this scene, she couldn't help but acknowledge Tu Shan Rongrong's wisdom. She truly deserved to be the head steward who managed all the affairs of Tu Shan.

"I just don't know why they're preventing me from entering the city. Is this how Tushan treats its guests?" Yang Ping'an changed the subject and asked.

"Young Master Yang, you may not know this, but our business in Tushan is not what it used to be, and we've also encountered some internal problems. Currently, Tushan is under martial law both inside and out." Tushan Rongrong thought of the dismal customer traffic and the setbacks she'd always encountered in reincarnation and reconciliation over the years, leading to widespread customer dissatisfaction. Thinking of these difficulties, Tushan Rongrong couldn't help but sigh. Life was hard, Rongrong lamented.

"Most of the people who come to Tushan are reincarnated humans and demons who have made wishes. In order to make a living, we have to reluctantly reduce our customer base." Tushan Rongrong explained to Yang Ping'an, "Young Master Yang also knows that humans and demons are now at odds, so we do not easily allow outsiders to enter Tushan."

Yang Ping'an nodded after listening. He understood what Tu Shan Rongrong meant: to focus solely on operating Tu Shan's reincarnation and continuation of destiny, abandoning other businesses, which was perfectly reasonable.

On the one hand, the customer base is stable and the fees are the highest; on the other hand, it can enhance the reputation of Tushan Red Thread Fairy and attract more lovers between humans and demons; it can also maintain the stability and order in Tushan City in this turbulent era, after all, the reincarnated demons need the help of Tushan fox demons, and these demons will stand with Tushan to some extent from any perspective.

"So that's how it is. No wonder the hospitable Tushan didn't welcome me." Yang Ping'an suddenly realized that he was influenced by his previous life's ideas and only remembered that the Tushan fox demons were warm and hospitable, but he forgot that it was an era five hundred years later when humans and demons lived in peace.

"Of course, Tushan welcomes Young Master Yang to visit, but Tushan's rules..." Tushan Rongrong smiled shyly, took out a shiny abacus from behind her back and hugged it to her chest.

"Hmm? I understand. 'A goose is plucked when it flies by, a beast is skinned when it leaves.'" Yang Ping'an, whose eyesight couldn't discern how she had conjured up such a scheme, raised an eyebrow and said with a half-smile.

"Life is not easy, please forgive me, Young Master Yang." Tu Shan Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Yang Ping'an was not angry, and her tone became slightly raised.

Tu Shan Honghong felt extremely embarrassed upon hearing Yang Ping'an's words. She usually spoke with an air of domineering confidence, but hearing it from someone else made her want to disappear into a hole; her toes practically dug a three-bedroom apartment out of the ground.

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do. I will never delay paying the bill. But don't try to fool me." Yang Ping'an sheathed his sword and looked at Tu Shan Rongrong with a half-smile. Although Tu Shan Rongrong was still young and had not yet made a name for herself as a master strategist, Yang Ping'an did not underestimate her at all. Her narrowed fox eyes clearly indicated that she was a hidden master.

"How could that be? Rongrong is just an ordinary little fox demon." Tu Shan Rongrong was startled. Yang Ping'an's gaze made her feel that he had seen through her. She smiled and retorted softly.

"That would be best." Yang Ping'an glanced at the abacus in her arms.

Yang Ping'an's eyes seemed to want to snatch her abacus. Tu Shan Rongrong subconsciously tried to hide the abacus behind her back.

"Entry fee to the city is thirty taels, toll fee is three thousand taels, medical fee is three hundred taels, public facility maintenance fee is four thousand two hundred taels, and security management fee is one hundred taels. Since both parties share responsibility, I will give you a 40% discount on the medical fee and security management fee, making it two hundred and forty taels." Tu Shan Rongrong clattered on the abacus, her fingers dancing like phantoms.

"Adding the Tushan all-inclusive service fee of 5,400 taels, the total is 12,870 taels," Tushan Rongrong said with a beaming smile, happily taking out a bill.

"Wait a minute." Yang Ping'an quickly stopped her when he heard Tu Shan Rongrong mention a long list of fees.

"Does Young Master Yang have any questions?" Tu Shan Rongrong asked with a smile.

"I can accept the other fees, but I absolutely cannot tolerate the toll and repair fees, and you should also explain the details of the all-inclusive service fee." Yang Ping'an straightened his clothes and righteously objected.

"Oh, how could that be! The toll is calculated based on the customer's strength. Three thousand taels is your daily fee. As long as you pay the fee, no one can bother you, whether it's your enemy, friend, or anyone else." Tu Shan Rongrong originally wanted to say that she would protect Yang Ping'an's safety, but then she thought about his strength and decided to omit that part.

"Isn't this just a case of Tushan shop bullying its customers!" Yang Ping'an didn't care about these mere gold and silver coins; he just didn't want to be ripped off like a sucker.

I like the myth of Da Luo, which started with the fox spirit.
