I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

After the Rabbit, the Tiger inquired about the war in Northern Wei, and the Ox mentioned the rebellion in Southern Liang and Western Shu.

Su Xian'er silently observed that these people were all concerned with the major events of the two countries, which clearly indicated that they held high positions, whether in power or out of power.

But to be proud of this and think oneself to be at the pinnacle of humanity is a bit like a frog in a well.

Su Xian'er had known about the overseas fairyland for a long time, but she had never seen it. Today, thanks to Lin Yi, she met the people of Penglai Immortal Island and some Four Saints' Abode.

In comparison, although the Four Saints' Abode is not as secretive as the Twelve Zodiacs organization, they are definitely stronger and more sophisticated than the Twelve Zodiacs.

They didn't deliberately hide, but only those who reached a certain level of cultivation could make contact with them.

It's not that secretive organizations are necessarily powerful; Su Xian'er understood this perfectly.

About fifteen minutes later, Su Xian'er felt that the light had become much dimmer, and the scene seemed to be distorted again.

The other zodiac signs didn't react much; clearly, they were used to it.

Once the incense has burned out, everyone will be driven away.

Sure enough, the space quickly distorted, and Su Xian'er's mind returned to her spiritual platform. After carefully sensing, she discovered that she could actually check the incense stored in the little golden statue.

She didn't know how much was consumed this time, but the incense stored by the Dog zodiac was enough for a million strands.

The dog zodiac animal has died, but its incense offerings will not disappear.

"If I had known I was this rich, I should have bought some things from them."

The twelve zodiac animals are all around 7,000 to 9,000 years old, and the demons and monsters at this stage are at the same level as Su Xian'er. Su Xian'er can use the things they buy and sell.

Since it's not her money to earn the offerings, she might as well spend it.

Before Su Xian'er could recover from the surprise of receiving a huge sum of money, she suddenly smelled a rich fragrance.

She opened her eyes and saw Lin Yi standing in front of her with a bowl of soup, his eyes looking particularly strange...

Chapter 436 Chasing Lin Yi Under the Dark Clouds and Moon

Why are you making that strange face?

Su Xian'er was confused. She didn't know what her body looked like when she entered the command platform. Judging from Lin Yi's expression, he seemed to have discovered something.

"Nothing, just asking if you want some soup."

"No...why not give it a try?"

Su Xian'er originally wanted to refuse, but the aroma from the bowl kept wafting into her nose, so she changed her mind before she could say it.

"What kind of meat is this? It smells so good."

Even after years of fasting, Su Xian'er couldn't help but marvel at how amazing the taste was.

"The rat demon's flesh smells delicious, doesn't it?"

Su Xian'er: "..."

Aren't you going too far!

For a moment, she wanted to put down the bowl, but after glaring at Lin Yi for a while, she let it go.

"Oh well, it's not like we haven't eaten it before."

Su Xian'er didn't stand on ceremony and continued eating.

Lin Yi was somewhat surprised. He was just teasing Su Xian'er; this wasn't rat meat, but bamboo rat meat.

While making soup earlier, I noticed something amiss in a small bamboo grove a few miles away. A bamboo rat was asking a hunter for a reward.

The hunter had gotten lost in the mountains for some unknown reason, and was in low spirits. If the little monster were to punish him, he would likely be doomed.

Lin Yi, of course, wouldn't stand idly by and watch someone die. He went over and saw what was wrong; it turned out to be a bamboo rat.

So, the bamboo rat became dinner.

High-end ingredients only need the simplest cooking methods to taste really good, and he even saved some for Qu Jing.

Seeing how much Su Xian'er was enjoying her food, he decided to tease her, but he didn't expect this vixen to be so unafraid.

"Have you eaten this before?"

"of course."

Su Xian'er looked up at the sky, as if reminiscing about a long time ago.

"That was a thousand or two thousand years ago. At that time, Yan Qingqiu and I were just little fox demons who had just awakened our intelligence. Qingqiu and Tushan were in great decline, and the imperial court's demon hunters were chasing us all over the world."

We could only hide deep in the mountains. At that time, our magical powers were weak, and we dared not use magic casually, lest we attract the demon hunters. So we could only catch and eat rats.

"You have stories like this too?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but imagine the two foxes struggling to survive in the mountains, catching mice to eat. Thinking about it, these two sisters had it pretty tough too.

Even if they possess magical powers, they dare not use them, as their powers are weak, and they are not much different from ordinary foxes in the mountains.

They'll probably be chased by wolves and tigers.

Lin Yi simply couldn't believe that Yan Qingqiu would ever be in such a sorry state.

"Speaking of catching mice, I admire Yan Qingqiu. He catches them every time."

As Su Xian'er talked about the past, she became more and more excited.

Lin Yi quietly listened, occasionally taking the initiative to ask a few questions.

"Actually, Yan Qingqiu has been smarter than me since she was a child, but she also has a lot of secrets."

I used to think I knew her very well, but now I realize that she has more secrets than I do.

Sometimes I wonder, was it not a coincidence that we found the inheritances of Qingqiu and Tushan, but rather a deliberate arrangement by Yan Qingqiu?

"What's going on here?"

Su Xian'er glanced at the Ruyi Pearl in Lin Yi's arms, and thinking that Lin Yi was not an outsider, she frankly said, "I just told you, a thousand or two thousand years ago, we were all just little demons who had just awakened our intelligence."

Two thousand years have passed, and our current cultivation level is approaching seven thousand years, all because we discovered the lineages of Tushan and Qingqiu, and each of us inherited a portion of their cultivation.

Back then, the two little fox spirits seemed to have gained roughly the same amount.

They each gained five thousand years of cultivation, but this cultivation did not immediately enter their accounts like Lin Yi's. Instead, it entered their bodies and was slowly digested by them, like paying in installments.

Without those inherited skills, it would have been difficult for them to leave the mountains so quickly.

When they emerged from the mountains, the world was in chaos, demons were rampant, and clouds were rising from all directions.

The two sisters have a history of great influence and have begun to gradually gather the reclusive fox clan.

At that time, many foxes proposed to participate in the great struggle between humans.

Even demons and monsters with some knowledge know that humans are the true protagonists in the world, and that human dynasties are always in flux, constantly rising and falling.

Amidst the chaos of war, the human race grew ever stronger.

In times of chaos, the cards are reshuffled.

The fox clan wanted to participate in the struggle between Chu and Han, and most of the fox clan felt that Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Western Chu, had a better future.

Yan Qingqiu defied public opinion, maintained a low profile, avoided getting involved in any trouble, and decided to completely sever ties with Tushan.

The foxes of Qingqiu return to Qingqiu, and the foxes of Tushan return to Tushan.

This is also a lesson learned by the fox clan after their previous defeat: the two fox clans cannot bet on one power.

It was around that time that Su Xian'er and Yan Qingqiu separated.

"I've always thought Yan Qingqiu was exceptionally intelligent. Over the years, she has led the Qingqiu Fox Clan to recuperate and rebuild, and the Fox Clan's strength has recovered considerably."

She had never participated in human warfare until recent decades, when her activities became more frequent.

But I don't quite understand. Humanity's fortune hasn't reached its peak yet, so there's no reason for her to enter the fray prematurely. I always feel she's playing a much bigger game.

Su Xian'er had nothing to hide from Lin Yi: their past, their rise to power, and the future of the fox clan.

After all, they are family now. Su Xian'er wanted to hold back, but she had nothing left, so what was the point of holding back?

If we don't seize this opportunity to curry favor with a powerful figure, how will we survive in the future!

Lin Yi did not comment on Yan Qingqiu's grand strategy. When the topic came up, Lin Yi took the initiative to change the subject, saying, "Since Qingqiu has separated from Tushan, you should not concern yourself with her affairs."

"But you, you originally agreed to plot something big with Xiao Se, but now you have a grudge against her. What do you plan to do from now on?"

Speaking of this, Su Xian'er raised an eyebrow and said, "What else could I possibly plan? Of course, I'll just do whatever you tell me to do!"

She started acting innocent again, as if she wasn't the vixen who ran away at the last minute.

Lin Yi grinned wickedly and said, "Alright then, you'll be busy tonight."

Su Xian'er: "..."

She glanced at the night outside and suddenly felt a little panicked...

The words are divided into two parts.

Xiao Se regained her senses and saw Wu Yun sleeping beside her.

This guy is still so lazy.

Yet, this scene also warmed Xiao Se's heart.

Even when trapped in a predicament, one can still have the illusion of a peaceful and idyllic life.

This time, she didn't roughly wake up the clouds; instead, she walked to the side and took out the little golden statue.

This golden figure was indeed extraordinary. More importantly, the golden figure possessed a dragon aura, making Xiao Se feel even more deeply connected to the fate of the imperial court.

Once he has secured his position as emperor, he can begin to deal with the curse.

However, she only knew the benefits of dragon energy to herself, but she didn't know how to use enough dragon energy to fight the curse.

Even the Demon Emperor at the time was unaware of this, only having a general idea. After all, before reaching this point, whether or not the curse could be broken depended on Xiao Se's fate.

However, the little golden figure also gave Xiao Se other surprises today, allowing her to exchange intelligence and resources with hidden forces, which would be beneficial for her to develop her underground power.

She is currently surrounded by enemies, and having more trump cards means having a better chance of winning.

"However, those twelve zodiac animals are not easy to deal with. We need to be careful when interacting with them, especially the dog..."

Xiao Se felt that something was not quite right.
