Fairy, don't try to mess with my filial piety

The appearance of this little fox is almost the same as her fox body, but it only has one tail.

The little fox pounced towards Chu Wuzhi's eyebrows, then disappeared and escaped into his soul cave.

Chu Wuji said out of careful consideration:

"Don't fight for now. I'm going to go to the Divine Sky Sect and see if I can get a method to cultivate the Yuan Shen. I can polish my Yuan Shen to prevent the aftermath of your fight from overthrowing me."

Both sides expressed no objection.

The Sky Fox Goddess spoke directly to Chu Wuji's soul:

"Young Master, you're still playing tricks on me. You're afraid we'll start fighting again, so you're hiding in the mountains to threaten us. You'll only come back after you're sure we've stopped fighting, right?"

Chu Wuji felt a little embarrassed that his thoughts were seen through, but he still felt it necessary to do so.

Otherwise, if the White Snake Lady and the Sky Fox Lady quarrel again, he will have no way to mediate and it will be difficult for him to deal with them since he will be in trouble with both sides!

He tried to argue, "No, I had already made up my mind. I'm going to the mountain soon. I have to tell Miss Guanyin about the foal's transformation, and then I'll talk about the technique."

His reasons were convincing, and Bai Sujin had no choice but to nod.

Auntie Qingshe muttered, "Wuji, you're going to the Immortal Sect today. Can you make it back in time? How long will it take?"

Chu Wuji reached out and took the clothes placed at the end of the bed. The jade hairpin came into his hand and said:

"Although we're not in the Lihuo Mountains right now, if I really want to fly, there are still ways. Flying with a sword is just a little trick I can do easily!"

Auntie Qing Snake was merciless and complained: "Are you flying a sword? It's clearly the sword that's dragging you along."

Bai Sujin sighed softly, "Alright, then Wuji, you should leave early and try to come back before nightfall."

After arguing for so long, it was still early in the morning and the streets were just beginning to hear the sounds of people moving around.

Goddess Tianhu didn't say anything. She had lived in the old house for quite some time before, but when the owner came back, she became an outsider. It was sensible for her to leave on her own.

Her figure disappeared into the house, and she ran away after the quarrel, running back to the palace quickly.

Chu Wuji was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the bedroom had returned to peace!

He put on his clothes, made a simple breakfast and put it on the table. After making sure that neither the White Snake Mother nor the Green Snake Aunt was angry, he left the house.

"It's so scary this early in the morning. I'm really worried they'll start fighting with all their might..."

Although they finally agreed to have a competition, the current situation is still acceptable, so we can just watch the battle between the great monsters.

Chapter 211 Each other's mood

After Chu Wuzhi left, Bai Sujin and her sister Qingshe returned to bed and lay down, with no intention of going out shopping.

I had a fight with someone early in the morning, so how could I have the energy to go shopping?

Green Snake hugged her chest, looking unhappy. She muttered, "Sister, how could you agree to such a thing? Wuji is our cub..."

If she were in a normal mood, Bai Sujin would definitely bring up the past and criticize her sister for her attitude and opinion towards Chu Wuji back then, but now she was not in the mood to joke around.

She leaned against the headboard, smiled bitterly, and explained:

"So what if he's our own child? Just because I raised Wuji doesn't mean I should treat him as my own property. Wouldn't that be the same as the little girl from the Gong family?

The so-called grace of raising my son is not a heavy shackle that binds my son, but the icing on the cake of our harmonious mother-son relationship."

Bai Sujin couldn't think of an exact description for a moment, so she could only find a word based on her feeling.

Aunt Green Snake could understand these principles, but she couldn't get over the emotional hurdle. She snorted in dissatisfaction:

"I just feel uncomfortable. A vixen has come out and wants to ride on our heads. She comes here so early in the morning to show off her power and assert her sovereignty!"

Bai Sujin looked at her sister's angry expression and finally smiled with relief. She asked:

"Think about it, the skills Wu Ji used to deal with the golden-haired beast, the skills he used to temper his body, and the secrets of resonating with the mountains, if it weren't for the selfless teaching of that Sky Fox Senior, would he have been able to learn all of this?"

"..."

Green Snake remained silent. Faced with facts that could not be refuted, she did not have the nerve to confuse right and wrong, nor would she deny the efforts of others.

Qingshe couldn't say for sure whether there were other talented people in the world today who were proficient in this art, but she was sure of one thing: given the relationship and energy between them as sisters, they would definitely not be able to help Chu Wuji find a better teacher and find a way of cultivation that was so suitable for him.

There is just one thing that is a bit troubling. That senior Tianhu is not very satisfied with the relationship between him and his master!

Bai Sujin saw her sister's anger gradually subside, and her frowning eyebrows relaxed. She continued in a gentle voice:

"Think about it again. Under normal circumstances, when Wuji grows up, there will always be a day when the family will separate. No matter how much we don't want to, we can't forcibly stop it or secretly sabotage it, right? That will ruin our relationship!"

White Snake's tone was kind, but her words were serious.

Only after having bad experiences did they realize how precious Chu Wu Ji and his family are to them!

The green snake finally nodded, like a deflated ball, tilted its head, leaned on the white snake's shoulder, and muttered:

"Sister, you're amazing. More than a decade has passed, and you've truly gotten over the sadness you once experienced. You've become like a sage, speaking so eloquently that anyone who doesn't know you would think you're an outsider!"

Outsiders always like to say some seemingly clever and wise truths, but most of them are hindsight and they cannot understand those emotions. What they say is not necessarily smart. They are simply belittling those who have suffered losses and failed. After all, you have suffered losses and made mistakes, so it is reasonable for me to criticize you.

So these people may appear to be level-headed, but in reality they are completely insincere.

Those who are in the vortex are affected by the gains and losses, but they can deal with things like bystanders. This is the most powerful.

Bai Sujin smiled unhappily, but she also agreed with her sister's words and said:

"Indeed, my state of mind has become peaceful without me noticing. It may be because after more than ten years, I can now enjoy playing.

Plus, I've learned a lesson: if I keep holding onto those things, I'll inadvertently hurt you, Xiaoqing, and Wuji. It was Senior Tianhu who helped smooth over the negative influence I caused Wuji!"

The green snake sighed repeatedly, and sighed very hard, so much so that the snow on the branches outside the window fell down.

She said, "I wish I had a calm mindset like you, sister. I woke up so early in the morning with so much anger and no place to vent... I should have had a good time last night!"

"I'm not really that bored. I'm still a little unhappy. Wuji used to be able to accompany us every night, but now he can only come every other day..."

Qing Snake raised her eyebrows. After hearing her sister say that, she felt much better.

I really thought my sister had transcended into a holy Buddha with no desires or wants. It's so scary!

*

Before leaving the old house, Chu Wuzhi took the straight knife with him. When he killed the golden-haired beast, he did not wipe off the blood on the blade. He left it for Pavilion Master Fan to see if he could take it back and temper it.

He walked into the Jing'an Palace and saw Si Que at first sight. He handed the straight knife to the female guard:

"Si Que, when you return to the palace, can you please deliver the quenching to me? I just killed a powerful creature in the Lihuo Mountains a few days ago and left it for the blacksmith to process. You can't keep it for yourself~"

Si Que readily agreed; it was a simple task, no big deal; her job was to run back and forth in and out of the palace anyway. She was also curious about what kind of creature Chu Wuji had dealt with in the mountains.

"Was it the battle when we took back the Lihuo Mountains? We eliminated those demons who had taken over the mountains and ruled them?"

"more or less."

"Why did I also hear that the entire Lihuo Mountain Range now belongs to our Lihuo Kingdom?" Si Que didn't quite understand the ins and outs of this. In her opinion, occupying territory requires war.

"This is a bit complicated to explain. It's probably the White Tiger Mountain Lord. She is now the only mountain god in the entire mountain range. She has temporarily formed an alliance with the Lihuo Nation with her territory."

From the perspective of other nations, they might not acknowledge that the Lihuo Mountains have been annexed to the Lihuo Nation. For example, would the Chuhai Nation and the Tianji Nation be willing to admit that they have lost control of their territory? However, the mysterious blessings such as the luck and spiritual energy brought by the mountains have been truly incorporated into the Lihuo Nation.

When the mountain people of Lihuo Country go into the mountains to work, their harvest will receive invisible blessings, and the probability of encountering unexpected dangers will also be reduced. Bumps and falls that would have caused serious injuries and fractures may invisibly become minor flesh injuries.

These invisible and intangible blessings are difficult to quantify, but generally speaking, they will be more biased towards the Fire Nation.

"Is this possible?" Si Que was surprised. He couldn't quite figure out these things, so he didn't ask any further questions.

Chu Wu Ji moved to his room and saw that the Sky Fox Queen was already sitting at the table waiting for him. It seemed that she had expected Chu Wu Ji to come back to feed him breakfast and was waiting there in advance.

Before going up the mountain, Chu Wuji went back to the palace specifically because he was worried that Queen Fox was in a bad mood, so he had to chat with her for a while.

Seeing that the Sky Fox Queen had a smug look on her face, as if her plan had succeeded, Chu Wuji's heart finally settled down.

He quickly made a bowl of noodles, paired it with the braised beef in soy sauce prepared in the kitchen, and brought it back to the Sky Fox Queen.

"Goddess Sky Fox, you scared me to death this morning. Why did you do it so suddenly? At least you should have told me!"

The charming and beautiful fox girl slurped her noodles with great pleasure, her lips becoming more shiny and glossy. She smiled and said:

"If I don't show up this morning, can you come up with a good plan for the whole day? Can you boldly tell the White Snake and the Green Snake, 'I have to accompany the Sky Fox Lady tonight. I'll come to accompany you next time when I'm free'? Do you dare to say that?"

......If I dare to say that, my aunt will hit me on the head with her fist.

Although Chu Wuji complained, he knew in his heart that he really couldn't come up with a good solution. The sudden attack by the Sky Fox Goddess helped him find an acceptable plan and stabilize the situation.

He replied subtly: "I dare not."

The Fox Goddess had a mature temperament, yet she retained the quirky charm of a young girl. She rolled her eyes coquettishly and said:

"That's all right, my dear, you should be grateful to me. You have to stay with me tonight, so come back soon!"

Chapter 212: White Snake Lady's Defeat in the Competition

Chu Wuji flew up on his sword and sat cross-legged on the sword of the flying sword Mozhi. The speed of the flying sword gradually increased and he almost fell down.

"Wouldn't it be better to get a seat belt?"

This flying sword carrying people is never as stable as flying a sword with spiritual energy. If you fly a sword with spiritual energy, the spiritual energy and the flying sword are one, and you can treat the flying sword as an extension of the sword cultivator's body and use it as you please.

While Chu Wuji was concentrating on fighting the enemy, he was able to cooperate with Mo Zhi's flight at any time, adjust his center of gravity and stabilize his body. But he was distracted just now and almost became a flying man.

In desperation, he chose to hold the hilt of the sword, hanging in the air, letting the flying sword drag him away. Chu Wuji was very confident in his physical strength and would not let go even if he was distracted.

Chu Wuji suddenly felt a gentle breeze caressing his hair, which shouldn't exist while he was galloping.

He realized that this was the flying sword apologizing to him.

"Okay, Mozhi, you can fly now. Don't worry too much. It's not your fault~"

The flying sword continued to move forward, flying towards the direction of Shenxiao Sect.

Chu Wuji continued to be distracted, paying attention to the movements in the Yuanshen Cave. The two mothers were discussing a competition.

Chu Wuji's heart was in his throat and he was very nervous!

However, the White Snake Lady and the Sky Fox Lady, who were at loggerheads with each other in the morning, are now getting along peacefully!

It can't be said that they are friendly and harmonious, but they do maintain courtesy to each other. Even someone like the Sky Fox Queen doesn't show too strong a hostility towards Bai Sujin.

The voice of the Sky Fox Lady was the first to ring out: [Young Master, are you eavesdropping?]

Just by listening to the fox girl's voice, Chu Wuji seemed to have an image of her smiling face, her delicate lips parted, and her gentle smile appearing in his mind.

"I'm listening. It's a bit unexpected. I was worried that you might start arguing."

The Fox Goddess angrily explained, "Your White Snake Goddess is a calm and composed person. Last time I scolded her at Tinglei Ridge, she remained calm and handled the situation appropriately. If I were to target her again, wouldn't she become a shrew?"

Then who was it that broke into the bed this morning... Chu Wuji felt a little relieved when he heard the Fox Queen praising Bai Sujin so much.

The conflict this morning was probably not caused by a deliberate act of picking a fight, but was a fight for his "right to sleep with the emperor". They were worried that if White Snake and Green Snake said something, he would really stay there overnight for a while.

"You guys chat first, I'm on my way here." Chu Wuji didn't disturb them and eavesdropped secretly.

He really wanted to see the situation inside the Yuanshen Cave, but unfortunately, even with the help of the method of introspection, he could not detect the specific situation inside the Yuanshen Cave. Perhaps he needed to practice Yuanshen to find out.

Bai Sujin: [Senior Tianhu, how do you plan to spar? Are there any rules?]

Tushan Naida: [There will be plenty of opportunities to spar in the future. For this first bout, let's let the little one next to us adjust to the aftermath of the battle. How about we decide the winner with rock-paper-scissors?]

Bai Sujin hesitated for a moment, as if trying to understand what the other person was saying: [Can you be more specific?]

The rule given by the Fox Goddess is that both sides prepare three cards for rock-paper-scissors, and inject a spell into the cards in advance. When the cards are played, the spell is triggered, but the victory or defeat still depends on rock-paper-scissors.

The purpose of the spell is more to let Chu Wuji hear it and feel the collision of the spell in the soul cave.

In general, this round of competition has nothing to do with strength, awareness, or calculation, it is simply a matter of luck in playing cards.

Chu Wuji breathed a sigh of relief again. This kind of competition was acceptable...

However, he noticed that this competition was not a best-of-three match, but a best-of-six match.

I guess they don't want the competition to end too quickly, but since it's an even number of games, there seems to be a possibility of a draw. How will it be calculated then?

Until they arrived at Zhuying Peak of Shenxiao Sect, Chu Wuji was patiently eavesdropping on the results of the competition.

In the end, it was the White Snake Mother who lost two points, and Chu Wuji heard her helpless sigh.

"It seems I have to go back early. Before spending the night with Queen Tianhu, I have to go back to the old house to comfort my mother." He thought.
