Chapter 42: The cunning Tushan Jun



The existence of the Dragon Fox spread to Xizhou so quickly, it was obviously a spy within the Canglong clan who leaked the information.

Clan leader Qin Beiwang was very angry... although it was useless to be angry.

The Canglong clan is a large demon clan with tens of thousands of lower-level members alone. It is naturally impossible to govern them all.

In fact, everyone knows it tacitly that the tribe must have been infiltrated by outsiders and become a sieve.

However, not to mention the eldest brother, the spies hired by the Canglong clan are also spread across the major demon clans. Therefore, Qin Beiwang just asked the Criminal Law Hall to conduct a self-inspection according to the procedure, and then took Long Long to the reception room.

The fox elders arrived so quickly that the tribe didn't even have time to reach a consensus on how to respond.

At the moment, it seems that Qin Beiwang can only receive the guest first and find out the other party's intentions first.

If the other party asked about Long Hu, Long Long, who was more familiar with her, would answer on his behalf. However, it was impossible for the elder to see Long Hu before the situation was confirmed.

When he arrived at the reception room, Long Long saw that the fox clan elder was actually a beautiful woman with a graceful figure and outstanding appearance.

And the appearance seems familiar...

Oh, it’s that Tushan Jun, the elder of the Donghuang Sect Hu Li, he is indeed an old acquaintance.

Long Long calmly withdrew his gaze, and only heard Hu Li greet him with a smile:

"Brother Qin, how are you?"

"Long time no see, Tushanjun." Qin Beiwang also smiled and asked her to sit down, and called the waiter to serve tea, as if he had no idea why she came.

"Who is this..." Hu Li's gaze fell on Long Long, seemingly unaware of his identity.

Of course, this was also an act. Although she did not recognize that this person was Qiu Changtian and Wei Dongliu, whom she had dealt with before, she knew from the secret information of the Dragon Clan that this Long Long was the one who brought Dragon Fox to join the Dragon Clan and was also the closest person to Dragon Fox.

"Longlong." Qin Beiwang used the cup lid to wipe away the tea stems and foam floating on the surface, and said slowly, "Haven't you met Tushan Jun yet?"

"Junior greets Lord Tushan." Long Long quickly stood up and saluted.

"No need to be so polite." Hu Li waved his hand kindly, and took out a magic weapon from his sleeve. It was a golden ball with two coiled dragons on its surface. "It just so happens that I found an item in Beiyuan by chance. It seems to have some connection with the dragon clan. I'll treat it as a gift to you, a junior."

"Is that... the Panlong Melting Gold Pearl?" Qin Beiwang said in surprise.

"Really? I didn't know that." Hu Li stuffed the golden ball into Long Long's hand. Seeing that Qin Beiwang did not say anything to stop him, the latter hurriedly bowed to thank him.

Qin Beiwang and Hu Li chatted for a while, and the topic turned from the generations of friendship between the Canglong and Tianhu tribes to the current continental situation in the Eastern Emperor Realm. They also talked about the interesting stories of several eccentric predecessors in the family. They talked about everything under the sun, with no aim. Long Long was confused and almost thought that this fox elder really came here to chat.

Fortunately, Qin Bei saw that it was getting late, so he asked Hu Li to stay for dinner.

This time Hu Li finally couldn't bear it anymore, or maybe he felt the time was right, so he pretended to be sad, wiped his tears and said:

"To be honest, I came here this time because I heard that my poor niece is still alive, so I came here specifically to look for her."

Qin Beiwang's expression remained unchanged, he just asked curiously:

"Oh? I wonder who in the tribe told Tushan Jun about this?"

Hu Li smiled and then called out a name, Qin, which Long Long didn't recognize.

Long Long listened quietly, thinking that the name Hu Li reported must be a spy hired by the Sky Fox clan from Canglong, but it was definitely not the spy who actually leaked the news about the Dragon Fox.

Maybe he was using Qin Beiwang's help to eliminate the disloyal ones among the spies.

Qin Beiwang obviously knew the answer, so he silently memorized the name and said:

"Dragon Fox... Indeed, a new member of our clan has this name."

"But Tushan Jun, I have never heard of you having such a niece?"

His tone was curious and playful, but Hu Li seemed not to hear his teasing intention, and just whispered:

"I have a sister and a cousin... Of course, it was a long, long time ago, so long ago that even among my clan, not many people know about it."

"Yeah." Qin Beiwang did not comment.

"She is half human." Hu Li continued.

Qin Beiwang frowned slightly.

Only a few members of the tribe know the bloodline composition of the dragon fox. Where did Hu Li get this information?

"If it was just the fox bloodline, or the human bloodline, it could have been successfully fused with the dragon bloodline to give birth to normal offspring." Hu Li sighed and said with regret, "But my cousin has both. I don't know why, but the two bloodlines combined in my newborn niece to resist the fusion of the dragon bloodline."

"The coexistence of three bloodlines would be extremely fatal and would seriously damage her health. Therefore, in order to prevent my daughter from dying young, my sister had to betray the family and secretly take away the clue to the whereabouts of a secret treasure."

Qin Beiwang's expression finally became serious, because what Hu Li said at this time was information that the Dragon Clan did not even know.

According to the Bloodline Hall, the dragon fox has three bloodlines, and the dragon bloodline has the largest proportion and the highest rank. Logically, it should devour the other two bloodlines to purify the dragon fox into a dragon species.

But for some unknown reason, the dragon bloodline was sealed by the outside world, allowing the remaining stronger fox bloodline to be expressed, and also changing the dragon fox's body into a fox appearance.

According to Hu Li, the dragon bloodline could not devour the bloodlines of the human race and the fox race, causing the three kinds of blood to fight in the body, endangering the life of the dragon fox. So why her dragon bloodline was sealed, there is a reasonable explanation.

Of course, there is another problem with this explanation, which is that it only explains the origin of Longhu’s mother, but does not say who Longhu’s father is.

Judging from the dragon bloodline level in the dragon fox, its father’s cultivation level must be ridiculously high, but the Jiaolong clan simply does not have such a candidate - if there was, how could this clan still be lurking in the secret realm of Beiming Fanyang?

But if what Hu Li said was true, and her cousin was a person from a long time ago, then Long Hu's date of birth and the age of his father's existence should also be pushed back accordingly, and then immediately a famous possibility emerged from Qin Beiwang's memory...

Impossible! What am I thinking!

He hurriedly shook the thought from his mind, and soon found a more obvious suspicious point.

The life span of the demon race is much longer than that of humans, but the prerequisite is that the cultivation level is high enough. The dragon fox can't even transform now, how can it live from "a long, long time" to today?

Long Long remained silent beside him, but he was also thinking quickly in his heart.

Now it seems that Hu Li is most likely indeed Long Hu's aunt.

But why did she tell Qin Beiwang the details of Longhu's life story?

It’s okay for her fox mother, but her Yinglong father is no small figure. If she thinks that this can prove her relationship with the dragon fox and make Qin Beiwang willing to hand the dragon fox over to her, then she is really too naive.

Wait, huh?

Long Long reversed his thinking and instantly thought of another possibility:

What if Hu Li revealed these things not to prove that Longhu's mother was his cousin, but to imply that Longhu's father was the King Yinglong?

In other words, if Qin Beiwang knew that Longhu was the daughter of Yinglong, would he be afraid of Longhu?

Or will it generate stronger ambitions?
