I have the best bloodline

"Let's go to town now and buy some spiritual plants, flowers, and food to take back."

"A region inaccessible to humans?"

Suddenly, Su Yan's mind was filled with memories of what he had seen and heard on Spring Fruit Street. Although there was no rule prohibiting humans from entering Spring Fruit Street, humans would need to spend a lot of spirit stones to have fun there.

Some exotic beasts and divine beasts even earn spirit stones in Spring Fruit Street, and there are even human female cultivators who give spirit stones to exotic beasts and divine beasts in hopes of obtaining their seeds.

Could there be a large number of venues similar to Spring Fruit Street inside the City of Ten Thousand Demons?

"Hey, Brother Fox."

Su Yan, with the fox mother's arm around his shoulder, stepped into the city gate of the City of Ten Thousand Demons. Due to the change in ambient light, Su Yan's eyes briefly dimmed. The human cultivator sitting in the gate passage nearby immediately brightened up upon seeing Su Yan and greeted him:

"Brother Fox, are you interested in making a couple of bets? We'll decide the winner with the dice. If you win, I can give you ten catties of spirit stones right now. If you lose, you don't need to pay a single copper coin. You'll just need to give me some fox fur."

The merchant dressed in Xia Yu's clothing saw the Nascent Soul stage fox who had just entered the door and his eyes lit up. He immediately called Su Yan over.

The spirit fox hair brush was a luxury item during the Xia Dynasty.

The fur of a fox at the Nascent Soul stage is absolutely exquisite. If a photo of Su Yan could be included in the packaging of the calligraphy brush, it would definitely be a bonus.

After all, sometimes when people are engrossed in writing, the bristles of the pen become frizzy, and they don't have much time to straighten them. In fear that inspiration might escape their minds, some writers will simply use their mouths to straighten the pen.

"Are you interested in the calligraphy brush?" Seeing Su Yan approach the gambling table, Auntie's face darkened, and she looked at Fox Mom and asked.

This Xia Yu merchant is so neglectful of his family!

Although Su Yan's story wasn't widely known throughout the city, he was quite famous within the cultivation community and the imperial court.

Auntie could already imagine that Xia Yu merchant shaving his own hair with a knife after betting two hands with Su Yan.

“What would I do with that? I haven’t even touched the little fox’s shed fur. If you’re interested in hiding a calligraphy brush, take two tufts to make a brush,” said the fox mother.

"Come on, it's very simple. Just add up the numbers on each of the five bone dice and compare them."

Xia Yu, the merchant, grinned wickedly, licked his lips, and looked at Su Yan as if he were looking at a treasure. Even the large scissors under the table were polished to a gleaming shine.

Chapter 510 The Empress Dowager's Letter

"Hmph hmph hmph"

The merchant from Xia Yu looked at the fox-like boy who was betting dice with him with a confident expression.

Because he wouldn't lose, losing a single battle would cost him ten jin of spirit stones, but a writing brush made from the fur of a Nascent Soul stage spirit fox could sell for at least fifty to sixty jin of spirit stones in Xia Yu's main city.

If you win one out of six hands, you break even; if you win two out of six hands, your profit is multiplied.

Gambling? Ha. Just business acumen and math skills.

…………

"There are so many kind people. Today is another day when I don't need to take out my wallet when I go out."

The aunt, walking alongside the fox mother, looked at Su Yan, who was carrying the baggage of a Xia Yu merchant, as if it were commonplace, and slowly began to complain: "Your little fox is really becoming more and more like a divine beast. She has even won over those Xia Yu barbarians who were originally not superstitious about metaphysics and stubbornly believed that everything is possible with human effort and that man can conquer nature."

Su Yan's incredible luck is no joke. As long as you hug and touch Su Yan before you sit down at the card table, you can easily sweep the competition. Unless you cheat or have also groped Su Yan, you will definitely lose.

The skeptical Xia Yu ladies, after losing hundreds of pounds at the card table, began to praise Su Yan's ability to bring wealth.

These are things you can't help but believe. Nobody would deliberately make their wallets suffer. Besides, Su Yan's ability to attract wealth is a matter of karmic retribution. He can pet the little fox here and then wipe out everyone else at the gambling table the next second.

Its effects on attracting wealth, bringing good fortune in love, and protecting the home (by installing hot and cold water systems) are all certified.

If Su Yan hadn't been away from home this year, her aunt's earnings would definitely be more than 400,000.

Walking through the streets of the City of Ten Thousand Demons, Auntie told Fox Mother about the amusing incident where Su Yan was surrounded by noblewomen from Xia Yu after his nine-tailed fox identity was exposed. Those ladies waved spirit stones, just wanting to see Su Yan alone.

Fox Mom and Auntie were selecting spiritual plants and flowers, while Su Yan, having nothing to do, went to the general store next door to see what special products of the demon race were for sale.

What are all these?

As soon as Su Yan entered the house, he was surrounded by the girls inside. The girls with feathers growing on their hair and cheeks all looked at Su Yan with strange expressions.

Su Yan was shocked when she saw the bronze yang in the display case and immediately ran out of the house.

Tongyang wasn't anything shameful, but Su Yan saw something in such a [_/] shape inside, and the girls in the room were all bird-like demons, so Su Yan couldn't help but wonder if he had disturbed a phoenix's nest.

When they went out, the thing that Su Yan had mistaken for a load-bearing pillar was actually also one.

"Just now, a baby fox ran in."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"He ran out with a red face, hahaha! Such a small fox knows quite a lot! He almost bumped into the bronze pillar at the door."

The girl who was already sitting in the shop linked arms with the girl who had just arrived, and told her what had just happened. The two of them walked together to the back of the general store.

………………

After failing at the first shop, Su Yan didn't dare to go into any more houses without signs or shops with signs she didn't recognize.

"Why are you back so soon?" Fox Mom, who was browsing in the flower shop, saw Su Yan run back before she had even bought all the spiritual plants she needed.

"I'm not very familiar with hieroglyphics," Su Yan said awkwardly. "The writing here is very different from that in human territory. I just wandered into a phoenix's nest without noticing."

"A phoenix's nest? It must be quite a sight inside," Auntie teased Su Yan with a laugh. "Isn't it magnificent?"

"What season is it now? There aren't that many flying demons gathering inside." The fox mother waved her hand, correcting her aunt's mistake: "Son should have been scared by the whole display case of stuff!"

Su Yan: "."

I told you I don't know the pictographs of the demon race! How dare you make such a suggestive joke in public!

………………

Su Yan, who was frustrated because he couldn't read the demon language, stayed obediently by his fox mother's side, afraid of wandering into some strange shop. He stayed there until they had picked up all the flowers and spiritual plants. Then, his fox mother carried the uninterested Su Yan on her shoulder and prepared to head to the Yin Yang Immortal Palace.

"Why is it so smoky and fiery here?" Yin Yang Immortal Palace is located at the rear of Ten Thousand Demon City. Led by Fox Mother, we bypassed the Ten Thousand Demon City Academy and arrived directly in front of the palace built of solid wood.

Su Yan looked on in surprise as he gazed at the palace before him, which appeared to be smoky and charred.

"The Lord of Daylight has a violent temper. When he gets angry, he slams his fist on the table, and the palace catches fire. After burning down several palaces, he used Fusang wood to build the Yin-Yang Immortal Palace that exists today."

The fox mother covered her mouth and chuckled, "When we were in school, we always hoped the Celestial Palace would catch fire, so we could just quit get out of class immediately."

"It burns almost every day. When it burns here, we just go for a stroll in the City of Ten Thousand Demons," Auntie added details to Fox Mom's words.

"Outrageous."

Su Yan, exasperated, found it hard to imagine the mental state of the Lord of Daylight.

"call out--"

The fox mother arrived at the palace gate, raised her head, and looked at the three-legged golden crow sleeping soundly in the bird's nest above the gate with one leg dangling. She said, "Little fellow, inform us that we have come to visit the Lord of the Night."

"what"

Jinwu poked his head out, his face reeking of alcohol and looking dazed. He glanced at the nine-tailed fox and the arrogant insect standing at the door, and subconsciously responded, letting out a burp as he said, "Looking for the King of the Night? You can just go straight to the main palace. Our ancestor went out to find women. The King of the Night rules over day and night, and will live forever! He deserves to drink and live ten thousand years!"

"Drink your ass off, then go find some women after get off work!"

The fox mother nodded, seemingly unsurprised, and walked straight into the Yin-Yang Immortal Palace.

It's perfectly normal for the mischievous children of the Golden Crow clan to do outrageous things when the Lord of Daylight skips work. If the Golden Crows could sit obediently, they wouldn't be Golden Crows.

Thanks to the Lord of Daylight's arson, the Yin-Yang Immortal Palace has virtually no landscaping, and its inner pools have long since dried up to the bottom. One can see the main palace where the Lord of Night resides at a glance.

When they arrived at the main palace, the traces of smoke and fire that had been present in the celestial palace had all faded away.

The Lord of the Night sat in his own universe, handling official business within the City of Ten Thousand Demons. Spiritual monkeys were leaping and bounding between various spatial portals, placing all the documents onto specially archived storage shelves.

"belch--"

The Lord of Night put down his pen and looked at Su Yan and his group who were walking out of the Celestial Palace. The moment Su Yan met the Lord of Night's eyes, he subconsciously let out a burp and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

It's like suddenly feeling acid reflux in your stomach, almost making you vomit.

In such a serious setting, Su Yan, realizing her rudeness, quickly covered her mouth, but even with her mouth covered and her breath held, the hiccups did not improve.

"belch--"

A burp escaped Su Yan, who was perched on Fox Mom's shoulder, and he almost jumped to the ground.

"Let go of your hand."

The Lord of the Night looked at Su Yan, his brows furrowing slightly. His figure, which had been sitting at the table, suddenly appeared in front of Su Yan in a flash, raising his hand to pinch the mouth of Su Yan's hiccuping little fox.

The sudden turn of events left Fox Mom and Auntie looking bewildered.

"There's something in his stomach," the Lord of Night explained to the Fox Mother.

"what"

Because the Lord of Night had helped him before, Su Yan immediately opened his mouth as wide as he could when the Lord of Night told him to open it. As a burp came out, the acid reflux that Su Yan had felt earlier also rose up with the burp.

A vine jumped out of Su Yan's mouth and landed on the ground with a "plop".

The Lord of Night's eyes lit up the moment he saw the parasitic vines.

These are items belonging to Empress Dowager Su!

"This is... a vine from the Su family fox?" Upon seeing the parasitic vine, the fox mother looked at Su Yan with surprise and asked, "Did you promise to deliver the letter?"

".No!"

Su Yan rubbed her neck, looking at the clump of vines she had vomited on the ground with a strange expression.

When did I ever eat these things?

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 511 Why does the Lord of the Night know so much!

"Smack."

A clump of parasitic vines spurted from Su Yan's mouth and fell directly to the ground, drawing the attention of everyone.

Su Yan looked at the wriggling green vines on the ground with a face full of surprise and uncertainty. The fox mother frowned slightly and asked, "Did you agree to deliver the letter?"

The parasitic vine that Su Yan spat out belongs to the category of triggering restrictions in wood-type magic. It is generally only used to transmit extremely important information; otherwise, no cultivator would deliberately set up something so complicated.

The fact that Su Yan spat out the parasitic vine hidden in his body only when he saw the Lord of the Night indicates that the person who sent the letter intended to deliver it to the Lord of the Night through Su Yan.
