Chapter 69 Shi Hua, you really can't accept me? ...
The image of the Green Scorpion's hook flashed through his mind.
Tu Muyue thought about how she was almost stung by the green scorpion just now, and she was suddenly frightened. Even though the green scorpion was frozen by Shi Hua, she was still afraid.
Although it was wrong for her to barge in rashly, the price she paid for this lesson was a bit too high.
Shi Hua put the Jade Scorpion away and looked at her: "Why did the Eighth Princess come to see me?"
Tu Muyue stared at the wooden box in her hand, suppressing the panic in her heart, "I heard that your place is quite lively recently, can't I come over to take a look?"
He glanced at Tu Ying who was silent beside him.
"What do you want to talk to Sixth Brother about? You even sent the servants away. If someone didn't know, they would think you were having a tryst."
"Eighth sister, don't talk nonsense."
Tu Ying scolded lightly.
She and Tu Muyue did not have a deep relationship and they rarely met each other on weekdays.
The Green Scorpion was taken away, and it was not easy for her to ask for it back in front of Tu Muyue. It would be better for her to ask for it in private.
Tu Muyue looked incredulous. "Fifth Brother's story has spread throughout the Fox Tribe. I don't believe you will remain indifferent. That idiot Tu Yi is probably still lying there. Now only you and Seventh Brother haven't reacted."
"Jiang Qingwu, you're not really moved by my fifth brother, are you?"
Shi Hua put away the wooden box and asked with a smile, "What do you think, Eighth Princess?"
Tu Muyue actually started to think seriously about the question after asking it casually.
A critical look swept over Tu Ying.
"Jiang Qingwu, your status is such that even my father respects you. Why would you seek a companion among the Fox Clan? With your cultivation and abilities, is there anyone in the world who is not worthy of you? Why bother choosing from within the Fox Clan?"
Shi Hua was curious: "The Fox Tribe is full of geniuses, but why are they all so incompetent when the Eighth Princess speaks of them? Is it possible that the Third Prince is also like this in the Eighth Princess's eyes?"
Tu Muyue's eyes widened: "Don't talk about my third brother! My third brother is naturally the best, even if you have any intentions, you can't touch him!"
How could the little girl who had grown up with Tu Chen tolerate a person of unknown identity as her third sister-in-law?
This person's identity is a mystery, so it's better to stay away from him.
Shi Hua couldn't help laughing.
It's really strange that there is a person in the fox clan who is obsessed with his brother.
Judging from the nature of the fox clan, each one is arrogant and disdainful of others, and it is rare to find someone as frank as Tu Muyue.
Shi Hua hadn't finished his business yet, so he chatted with her for a few words and assured her that he definitely didn't like Tu Chen. Only then did he reassure her and sent him away.
Tu Ying knew very well the temperament of her eighth sister. She would never be sent away so easily by Shi Hua. She guessed that she would hide in the dark and watch secretly.
But what does this have to do with her?
Tu Ying thought with a forced smile.
When I turned my head, I saw Shi Hua's eyes that seemed to see through everything.
My heart skipped a beat.
Tu Ying calmed down and said with a smile, "Miss Jiang, why are you looking at me like that? Didn't you just tell Eighth Sister that you look down on us?"
Shi Hua watched her sit down leisurely. With a flick of his finger, the teapot floated into the air, and tea poured out from the spout, emitting a faint fragrance of tea.
Two cups of tea, one for each person.
Tu Ying had not yet figured out her purpose for asking him over.
"Tu Ying, you're also curious about why I asked you out alone, right?"
Among the several princes, apart from the Fifth Prince Tu Li who came to visit her out of shame, only Tu Ying came at her invitation.
Ever since Shi Hua knew how many spies were inside and outside the palace, he knew that those people would also know about his meeting with Tu Ying.
Shi Hua was not worried, as the internal fighting within the fox clan had little to do with her.
Tu Ying: "I'd like to hear the details."
"I'm sure you still remember those disciples from Lingyuan Pavilion in the Floating Cloud Secret Realm three years ago."
Tu Ying raised her eyebrows.
The only person she remembered was probably that very stubborn boy.
She had suffered too much hardship and loss in her childhood, so she was wary of everyone. She didn't expect that she would fall into his trap. However, she also poisoned him. Judging from the time, he should not live long.
What's that boy's name... Mo Huai? I think that's his name.
Tu Ying lowered her eyes: "It seems that Miss Jiang came to the Fox Clan this time because of him."
Shi Hua likes to deal with smart people.
She is a lazy person. In the past few years, she has been forced to go out and run around because of the binding system, and she has become unlike herself.
"Yes, I came here for Mo Huai."
"Mo Huai is the direct disciple of Immortal Venerable Ying Xing. If anything were to happen to him, the first people Ying Xing would not let go would be the Fox Clan. Lingyuan Pavilion has been away from the world for many years, but it is not completely ignorant of the outside world. If Ying Xing wants to destroy the Fox Clan, he only needs one move."
Tu Ying was not someone who could be frightened.
"Miss Jiang also said that Lingyuan Pavilion has been secluded from the world for many years. Even if Yingxing Immortal Venerable wanted to take action, he would probably be constrained by the laws of nature. Otherwise, he would not have asked Miss Jiang to take action."
The analysis is correct.
Among the princes of the fox clan, Tu Ying is the most stable and intelligent, slightly inferior to Tu Chen.
Shi Hua had some considerations in his mind.
"You guessed right." Shi Hua raised his hand to cast a barrier. Seeing the other party's alertness, he couldn't help but laugh, "Don't be nervous. There are some things they can't hear."
Tu Ying frowned. She had a premonition that these things were related to her and would disrupt all her plans.
"Your current position in the Fox Clan is hard-earned, and I don't bother to use your status to threaten you. So, I want to make a deal with you. Do you want to hear it?"
Her identity...
My heart started beating wildly.
Her identity, which she had hidden for hundreds of years, was discovered just like that?
Tu Ying remained silent.
She remembered her mother saying that no one in the fox clan could see through her identity as a woman disguised as a man, unless there was a cultivator who had reached the Mahayana stage.
Is Jiang Qingwu actually a Mahayana cultivator?
Tu Ying was shocked: "You... who are you?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the aura of the other party suddenly changed.
The gentle breath turned cold and fierce. The breath of the strong man was like an invisible hand, clamping her heart, making every beat difficult.
The other party did nothing and continued to look at him with a smile.
Tu Ying felt a terrifying aura from that breath, which belonged to the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
In the whole world, there are only a few people who have the ability to transcend tribulation. No! It’s only that person!
"It's you?!"
Tu Ying jumped up reflexively, but was held down by her.
Shi Hua's smile remained unchanged. "Shh, I know your secret, and you know mine. In this fair deal, are you willing to listen?"
Tu Ying had heard of the name of Shuyu Immortal Venerable.
To her, Immortal Venerable Shuyu was very powerful, so powerful that both human cultivators and demon cultivators were envious when they talked about her.
While fearing the Immortal Master Shuyu, he also admired her strength.
Tu Ying knew that her talent would never reach that level, and every time she looked up at the residence of the Immortal Master Shuyu, her heart was filled with envy.
If she could also reach the realm of Shuyu Immortal Venerable, why would she have to dress up as a man and compete with her brothers for the position of Fox King.
Tu Ying calmed down and said, "If you want the antidote, you can just do it to me."
The Shuyu Immortal Venerable, who is so high and mighty and loves the world, is actually so... approachable?
She really didn't know how to describe it.
Shi Hua restrained his aura.
"Taking even a drop of my heart's blood would damage my very foundation. You've never done anything unforgivable, so why would I attack you so casually?"
Tu Ying clenched her fists. She knew very well that agreeing to the deal was the best outcome at this moment.
When I used the blood from my heart to make the poison, I should have anticipated this day.
But she still refused to give in.
If she hadn't met Shi Hua, she would probably have continued to deal with her brothers.
"Don't worry, I will use my spiritual power to protect your heart meridians, but you can't show the slightest rejection of me. You know the consequences. After the matter with the fox clan is over, I will arrange to send you away from the fox clan. You can return to your daughter's body and do whatever you want."
Sounds like a good deal.
Tu Ying sighed heavily: "Thank you."
Once her heart blood was taken, her cultivation over the past few hundred years was completely wasted.
Shi Hua handed her a bottle of pills.
"Take one pill daily to restore your fundamentals. While I can't guarantee a complete recovery, it will at least preserve half of your cultivation. When making poisons in the future, don't use your heart's blood. While this method is good, it endangers your fundamentals. I know you understand this."
Tu Ying smiled bitterly: "If not, how can I catch the Fox King's eye?"
Now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying more.
After receiving the pills, Tu Ying said goodbye.

Shi Hua sat in the yard and did not leave.
Looking up at the sky, it was almost time.
Sure enough, the next moment, Wei Shizhou walked out of the house with his head covered. Seeing Shi Hua there, he was stunned for a moment. Thinking of what happened before he fainted, his cheeks became hot again.
"woke up?"
Wei Shizhou slowly sat down opposite her.
I smell a hint of rouge in the air.
"Has anyone been here?"
"Yes, the Eighth Princess and the Sixth Prince were here." Shi Hua reached out to feel the temperature of his forehead, not noticing that Wei Shizhou's eyes widened at her sudden approach. "It's still a little hot. Take another pill later."
Wei Shizhou pretended to cough to ease his embarrassment.
He still remembered the memories before he lost consciousness.
When I bought the Fox Transformation Pill, the fox demon didn't say there would be such a reaction. Now that I think about it carefully, why does it feel like the fox is in heat?
Wei Shizhou was so embarrassed, it was so humiliating!
Shi Hua picked up the teapot and poured tea again, this time for Wei Shizhou.
"Next time, if you have any elixirs of unknown origin, please give them to me for review first."
"oh."
The atmosphere fell silent again.
Wei Shizhou thought to himself that he should quickly think of something to break the awkward atmosphere.
"Oh right," Shi Hua recalled something he had forgotten for a long time. "Since you came back, I haven't asked you about your cultivation level. It doesn't look like you're at the Nascent Soul stage... Are you using a spiritual weapon to hide it?"
What spiritual weapon could escape her eyes?
Wei Shizhou: "It gave it to me. It said it could hide the demonic aura in me."
Half of his cultivation came from cultivating spiritual energy, and half came from cultivating magic skills. When his magic skills were suppressed, he only had the Nascent Soul cultivation level.
Shi Hua nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"Go back and have a good rest. The Fox Tribe's affairs will be over in a few days."
So fast?
Wei Shizhou was surprised. This also meant that he didn't have much time left to be alone with Shi Hua openly. When he returned to Xuanyin Immortal Sect, he would definitely be questioned about what happened in the secret realm.
I couldn't help feeling lonely.
In that case—
"Paint!"
Wei Shizhou called her, and his fiery eyes met her calm eyes, choking her instantly.
Shi Hua raised his eyes: "What's the matter?"
Wei Shizhou closed his eyes and said, "What I said at that time was sincere! Shi Hua, can't you accept me?"
No response.
My enthusiasm was like being poured with a bucket of cold water.
Shi Hua looked at him coldly.
"Wei Shizhou, you should know that I approached you only because I wanted your life."
