I have the best bloodline

The Dao Yu family cultivators have a few quirks; they have a habit of using photographic crystals to record their daily lives.

The girl in front of him was probably referring to the "touch" thing she mentioned, which likely meant she wanted to take a photo with Su Yan.

Seeing the terrified expression on Su Yan's face, his aunt roughly guessed what had happened. Her little nephew had probably suffered a loss under the Dao Yu family's recording crystal, which was why he ran away as soon as a Dao Yu family cultivator reached out.

What a pity.

Seeing his aunt's stern face and extremely harsh refusal to let him pet the fox, the Dao Yu family cultivator showed a slight look of disappointment and said:

"Alright! Since you're unwilling now, I'll come back and ask again later."

Dao Yu's daughter looked at Su Yan with reluctance, then turned and walked towards the table where her companions were.

"Have you ever suffered a loss at the hands of Dao Yu's family?"

The aunt looked at Su Yan, who was peeking out from her arms, and asked about her nephew's gossip.

"It can't be considered a loss. The Dao Yu family cultivators are notoriously difficult to deal with. Back when I lived in the Western State, the city lord of Chicheng was a demonic cultivator aunt who ran away from the Dao Yu family. I think she became a demon through music."

"Ever since she saw my pink paw pads, she's felt that using my paws to drum would surely produce perfect melodies, thus contributing to the perfection of her state of mind."

"She wanted to cut off your claws to make musical instruments?" Auntie's expression turned slightly serious as she asked.

"No. Every time, she would take advantage of the fact that my mother wasn't paying attention to me, run over, cover my mouth with a white cloth, tie me up and take me back to the city lord's mansion, forcing me to study, attend classes, and learn music."

Su Yan looked pained: "My mother doesn't care about the aunts in the Guan Yu family. Once I fall into their hands, I have to attend classes to cram for music lessons, which last all day. If I throw a tantrum or act out, she will record it with a recording crystal and sell it to those pure fox clan old aunts in the great forests of the southern state at a high price."

She also said that I should act even more provocatively, because the pure fox clans love watching these videos of young foxes.

"The Daoist Yu family's demonic cultivators are all evil spirits."

Chapter 387 Little Lover

"I know nothing about music, but my aunt forced me to take music lessons, saying she would train me to become a top musician in the cultivation world, so that I could dance with her and am amazed the world."

Su Yan, her face filled with sorrow, poured out her grievances to her aunt.

The cultivation method of the Dao Yu family is very strange. It is a method that satisfies the inner desires of a certain stage, thereby achieving a state of mental perfection and promoting the improvement of cultivation.

It is precisely because the cultivators of the Daoyu family are all acting according to their own desires and doing a lot of absurd and speechless things in the cultivation world that the sect, originally named Lingxiang Temple, has quietly changed its name to the Daoyu family, which is neither righteous nor evil but leans towards the demonic path.

The city lord's aunt thought Su Yan's fox paws were beautiful, so she thought that if his paws were used to make drums, they would surely produce extremely amazing and wonderful melodies. Therefore, whenever she had free time, she would run to the fox mother's side and kidnap Su Yan to her home.

Although the city lord's aunt is a Dao Yu family cultivator, she is also a top musician in the cultivation world. She is a musician who charges three thousand for a single piece of music and can earn forty to fifty thousand catties of spirit stones in one night of performance.

With such a renowned teacher shamelessly offering to teach him, and providing meals and transportation in addition to the lessons, Fox Mom thought it was a great idea after a little consideration. It would be better for him to learn music than to spend his days fooling around with those good-for-nothing friends, so she didn't interfere much with the city lord's aunt's abduction of Su Yan.

Su Yan loves reading, but he only reads tales of the cultivation world or biographies of cultivators—novels, in fact. He's so tired of reading serious courses that even the fox rolls its eyes.

Therefore, when Su Yan saw that group of Dao Yu family cultivators, he immediately recalled the miserable life he had as a child, being sandwiched between his aunt, the city lord, and unable to move, squatting in the music palace reading music scores. He subconsciously ran into his aunt's arms, afraid that he would encounter some kind older sister who wanted to tutor him again.

"So, you know a lot about the Dao Yu family?" Auntie comforted Su Yan, who was pouring out her grievances, and glanced in the direction of the Dao Yu family cultivators.

"I wouldn't say I know everything, but I do know some basic facts about the Dao Yu family's lineage, right?" Su Yan said.

Among the three major demonic sects, the Dao Yu family, because they focus on cultivating supernatural powers rather than cultivation techniques, has maintained a sect size of only a few hundred people every year, despite holding grand ascension ceremonies open to the general public.

Moreover, unlike other sects that have titles like senior brothers, junior brothers, and elders, Su Yan felt that their method of accepting disciples should be called "family-style education."

He was a powerful member of the Dao Yu family, leading his disciples and grand-disciples in their lives and teaching them. Each family was responsible for its own affairs. The current powerful member of the Dao Yu family was the former closed-door disciple of the Dao Yu family's sect leader.

"I can't sense the cultivation level of this group of people through their white robes, but judging from the cultivation level of the girl who tried to touch me earlier, they are either a group that came out to kill their demonic and insane elders, or they are members of the Dao Yu family who came out to have some fun together," Su Yan said, having just gotten rid of his childhood trauma.

By creating constraints through artificial, phased desires, and using the satisfaction of one's state of mind to drive the improvement of one's cultivation, as long as one puts one's desires into practice, the speed of cultivation can be described as rapid as a thousand miles a day.

Once a Daoist cultivator loses his mind or allows desires to cloud his judgment, he will fall from the tightrope into the world, beyond cure.

The Dao Yu family cultivators who have gone out of control are terrifying. As for what makes them terrifying, the city lord didn't say, only that the Dao Yu family cultivators would personally take back their out-of-control disciples.

This is all that Su Yan knows about the Dao Yu family.

........................

The aunt watched the Dao Yu family cultivators, confirming that their earlier visit to Su Yan was simply because Su Yan's fox form was too cute and they wanted to pet him, without any other ulterior motives, before shifting her attention away.

Su Yan stopped being lazy and tricky, and obediently manifested his human form. He sat in a teahouse by the sea, eating salt and pepper snake pieces and drinking chilled coconut juice, waiting for Sister Nanwu to finish greeting her people and come to meet him.

"So it really was here."

Before Jiaonan Wu arrived, a burly-looking figure dragged a plump, beautiful woman into the teahouse, shoving her along with a broad smile as he spoke:

"Father, I've brought Mother to you. You two can catch up. I need to go back to the Merfolk territory to register for the Winter Festival."

With a broad smile, Huli pulled his mother into the teahouse and placed her in his father's arms.

Hu Lian, who had been pushed into the teahouse by Hu Li, rolled her eyes in annoyance, lightly brushed aside her hair that had been ruffled by the sea breeze, and said with a slightly helpless expression:

"My little fox lover hasn't been around for a long time. I was wondering why my tiger cub was so excited, spouting nonsense about some surprise, calling me to take a stroll through the merfolk territory, and then bringing me ashore."

Hu Lian was quite speechless. Ever since her cub met Su Yan's elders, it had automatically conjured up a bunch of nonsense in its mind, and kept muttering to itself that it wanted Su Yan to be its father.

However, it must be said that the divine beast clans are indeed a huge force in the cultivation world. In addition, due to the era of war among all races, the various divine beast clans formed alliances to ensure their survival and forged life-or-death friendships.

If one could really get close to one or two families, life would indeed be more comfortable than being an elder in the Valley of a Thousand Flowers.

"Sister Hu Lian".

Upon seeing Sister Hu Lian, whose white dress was partially obscured, Su Yan raised her hand to invite her to sit down, and then began to introduce Hu Lian's background to her aunt:

"Auntie, this is one of the four demon girls who accompanied me when Aunt Chi led me to Spring Fruit Street. She is Tiger Lian, the Gu Garden Master of Wanhua Valley."

"Cultivators from the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers"

After muttering something to herself, the aunt looked at Hu Lian and introduced herself: "Pure Fox, Fox Weiwei."

Having learned from the experience of Hua Yu Zhenren, when she made friends with the fellow Daoists of Wanhua Valley again, Auntie didn't think twice and just made up a fake name and identity, for fear that her arrogant identity would drive the Wanhua Valley cultivators crazy.

After all, the proud insect, known as the king of poisonous insects, is no less than any rare treasure that only appears in legends to the cultivators of the Gu lineage. If a Gu cultivator could bring a proud insect home, he would be laughing in his dreams.

"You guys chat, I'll go find an inn outside."

After greeting Hu Lian, the aunt casually made an excuse to go outside the teahouse, leaving a seat for Su Yan and Hu Lian, who were alone together.

"Hey"

Hu Lian watched his son run off quickly and his aunt leave with a slightly ambiguous smile, then sighed silently and said, "Since we parted last time, I was thinking of going to Spring Fruit Street next year to look for..."

Hu Lian stopped halfway through her sentence and slowly turned her head to look at the Dao Yu family cultivator sitting in the dark corner.

"Smash your photo crystals. If I sense you're being spied on again, I don't care if you're the ones taking pictures, I'll fill in every single eye on your body with crystals."

Clearly, when Su Yan introduced Hu Lian's identity to his aunt, the words "Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers" attracted the attention of Dao Yu's group, who were also from the Demonic Sect. Moreover, an affair between an old man and a young woman was taking place there.

Such gossip naturally had to be recorded, but Dao Yu's group hadn't cultivated properly, and Hu Lian sensed something strange while they were secretly taking pictures.

Chapter 388 Stolen Goods Auction

"You stingy person, you have absolutely no virtue in sharing!"

The Dao Yu family cultivators, who had been scolded by Hu Lian, reluctantly put away the recording crystals that had been pointed at Su Yan from their sleeves and collars. They seemed to still have some resentment on their faces as they muttered to themselves.

What was originally a matter with pictures and evidence has become a matter of "no pictures, no words" because of Hu Lian's intervention.

"Ignore those Dao Yu family cultivators; the shamelessness of the people of the Southern Continent is perfectly embodied in them."

Hu Lian withdrew his gaze, cursed the creatures of the Southern Prefecture and the Dao Yu family, then looked at Su Yan sitting opposite him, a hint of helplessness on his face, and said:

"I really didn't expect to run into you here, my love. It's truly a pity."

Encountering Su Yan again gradually filled Hu Lian with a sense of helplessness. Back in Spring Street, when Jin Wu grabbed his buttocks and threatened him, Hu Lian was prepared to spend several months with Su Yan until Xiao Ya Zi got him pregnant, so as to gain a sense of accomplishment.

After all, for some demons, the slow progress in cultivation is nothing compared to the thrill of conquering powerful female beasts. The ultimate conquest is to have a female beast bear them a child.

Although he was threatened by the Golden Crow, Hu Lian secretly thought that giving birth to a sub-dragon cub with the bloodline of the Yazi seemed like a win.

Tiger Rei didn't intend to speculate on what other people's thoughts were when they had children, but her initial idea for procreation was to have two boys and raise them to be filial to their mother when they grew up.

When Hu Lian was mentally prepared and stopped having a mindset of enjoyment but instead of a mindset of reproduction, Su Yan disappeared without a trace from Spring Street when she woke up.

Hu Lian learned from Jiu Ying that Jin Wu had taken Xiao Ya Zi home because of the attack by the Nightmare Town's followers and the public fight between Jin Wu and the Chun Hu clan's administrators.

At that time, Hu Lian was speechless. He led his tiger cub along the route the Golden Crow had taken to find it, determined to extract the seed from Su Yan and give birth to a child.

But after asking around all the way, they completely lost contact with Su Yan when they finally reached the Moon Rabbit Clan's territory.

When Hu Lian's breeding season was over, and the fertility pill she had taken before having sex with Su Yan completely lost its effect, Su Yan poked her head out. After Hu Lian recalled the whole story, the entire white tiger was speechless.

How could this vengeful brat be so mean? If Su Yan had shown her face a week earlier, the fertility pill made by the Fairy Healer would still be effective. Given the effects of that pill, she would have been pregnant within three days.

The thought of this made Hu Lian feel incredibly sad.

........................

Although Hu Lian's wishful thinking didn't work out, when facing Su Yan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time...

Hu Lian still invited Su Yan to come to the inn in the coastal city that night, to complete their previous unfinished promise surrounded by the warm and cool seawater.

Although her wishful thinking didn't work out, she could still brag to her fellow sect members about teaching the young dragons about femininity after getting free access to the dragons.

This can be considered as adding a remarkable achievement to his resume that would attract the attention of goddesses and courtesans.

The dragons, who were known for their lustful female beasts, one day fell into the hands of the elders of the Valley of a Thousand Flowers and were brutally humiliated.

She feels very proud when she boasts about it.

Are you also here for the auction?

After catching up, Hu Lian changed from sitting face-to-face to sitting next to Su Yan, holding the young man's arm and placing it on his lap. He smiled and chatted with Su Yan about everyday things, trying to reduce the awkwardness and lay the foundation for a wonderful night together.

An auction?

Su Yan looked at Hu Lian with a puzzled expression and said with a strange look, "I thought you were all here to participate in the Merfolk's Winter Festival?"

"They're the ones who love to do such despicable things, using photographic crystals to spy on people having sex. We in Wanhua Valley would never stoop to such a thing."

As Hu Lian spoke, he steered the conversation toward the Dao Yu family, attracting the attention of the Dao Yu family cultivators before launching another verbal attack.

Clearly, there must be some historical friction between the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers and the Dao Yu Family, the two demonic sects; otherwise, the verbal attacks would not have been so fluent and smooth.
