Zuan didn't care about this; he was no longer the same person he was when he first transmigrated.

In his previous life, he couldn't understand why those famous wealthy entrepreneurs claimed they didn't know whether the women around them were beautiful or not; he thought they were just showing off.

But now I think that was their true feeling, because they are surrounded by beautiful women, so beauty is not an important factor for them. Instead, they value other things more.

The current situation in Zu'an is similar. He has so many beautiful women around him, all of whom are famous beauties in the world. There is also Daji, the most beautiful woman in the history of the fox clan. So even though Tu Shanyu is beautiful, she is not enough to cause him any emotional fluctuations.

Instead, he was thinking about another question: was that fat Taoist priest a charlatan or did he really come to tip him off?

But if it's about tipping someone off, they don't know him, and it concerns the King of Qingqiu. Does he have the power to know so much in advance?

What exactly is his purpose?

However, having watched so many movies featuring characters who were masters of self-destruction in his previous life, he naturally wouldn't overlook any suspicious points.

We should still be cautious today. It's better to believe in the possibility of bloodshed or disaster than to dismiss it entirely.

They soon entered the royal palace of Qingqiu Kingdom. Compared to the royal palace of the human race, it was naturally much inferior, but compared to the simple palace of the snake race, it was much more prosperous.

It is likely because of the fox spirit that many merchants came here, which boosted the business.

The Qingqiu Royal Palace has a very unique style. Its architectural style is somewhat similar to that of classical Japan. The interior decoration is magnificent and there are oval carvings everywhere, which is more like the style of the Western Regions in the past.

After entering the palace, a maid helped Tu Shanyu remove her cloak, revealing her beautiful figure. She was indeed graceful and slender, with a body that could be easily grasped.

"Sister, are you going to the royal court at the summons of the Demon Emperor?" Tu Shanyu asked coquettishly, naturally taking Yu Yanluo's hand.

Yu Yanluo was a little uncomfortable with her being so intimate, but she didn't want to push her away, so she replied, "That's right, the snake clan is quite far from the royal court, so we need to set off early. By the way, aren't you going?"

“I don’t want to go either, but there’s nothing I can do,” Tu Shanyu said with a troubled expression. “However, I still have some things to take care of at the middle school, so I may have to leave later.”

Yu Yanluo sighed softly, "That's such a pity. I was hoping to travel with my sister."

The people behind them kept rolling their eyes. Neither of them wanted to be with the other, but they were acting like sisters.

Neither Yun Jianyue nor Yan Xuehen could do that in terms of interpersonal communication.

"It's alright, sister. Go to the royal court first and familiarize yourself with things. When I come, I'll have to rely on you." Tu Shanyu said with a smile, then glanced at Yan and Yun and couldn't help but sigh, "The snake clan is truly blessed with outstanding people and resources, producing so many beautiful girls."

Although the two women were veiled, it did not diminish their charm at all; on the contrary, it added to their mystique.

"They are my friends, but not members of the snake clan." Yu Yanluo only hinted at this, and Tu Shanyu didn't press further.

She secretly guessed the identities of the two women, but no matter how rich her imagination was, she could hardly imagine that they were two top grandmasters of the human race.

The group then entered the main hall, where a banquet had already been prepared.

Everyone took their seats one by one. They noticed that the three women, Yu Yanluo, took good care of Zu An and invited him to sit down as well. The fox women in the palace were amazed, after all, this was a country where men were inferior to women.

However, Zuan was tall and handsome, and many fox women had a good impression of him and did not raise any objections.

"These are all famous dishes from Qingqiu. I specially asked the kitchen to make them, hoping to leave you all with wonderful memories." Tu Shanyu smiled and gestured for you to proceed.

The group looked at each other, all worried that the other might have tampered with the food.

If Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen were at their peak, they wouldn't be afraid, but now that they are seriously injured and weak, it's far too risky.

Zuan transmitted his voice, "It's alright, I'll try it first."

He is now immune to all poisons, so even if there is poison in the food, it cannot harm him, and he can detect it in advance.

So, without hesitation, I tried every single dish.

The girls were initially a little worried, but they knew he wasn't a reckless person, and since he was doing this, he must have been confident, so they didn't say anything.

The fox-woman waitresses around them exchanged glances. This man looked quite handsome, but he looked like a reincarnated starving ghost. What a waste of such a good-looking face.

Tu Shanyu smiled and said, "This young master is truly a man of great ambition."

She knew exactly what the others were worried about, and had originally planned to eat first to dispel their doubts.

Little did anyone know that her praise would immediately alert the girls to the possibility of a romantic entanglement. Yan Xuehen and Yun Zhongyue glared at Yu Yanluo.

Yu Yanluo naturally understood their meaning and, not wanting to dwell on Zu'an, changed the subject to other topics, talking about the customs and traditions between the two races, their past friendship, and future cooperation.

Zuan was enjoying his leisure time, indulging in the delicious food on the table. It must be said that the chef of the Qingqiu Royal Palace was truly skilled; the food was a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.

However, there is one drawback: the dishes on the table include Crystal Lotus Chicken, Pearl Chicken Balls, Caramelized Tomato Chicken Strips, Beauty Chicken Liver, Hibiscus Chicken Slices, Crispy Chicken Cutlet, Imperial Concubine Chicken Wings, Eight Treasure Whole Chicken, Chicken Dumplings, Shredded Chicken Pastry, and Chicken Blood Congee...

Zuan never imagined that there were so many ways to cook chicken. It seems that Qingqiu Kingdom is a chicken hell.

The conversation flowed smoothly and the time passed quickly.
