The bright eyes of the Qingqiu Fox King snapped open instantly. "Did I ever do that??"
Why does she have no recollection of it at all?
That's absolutely impossible!
Qingqiu Fox Lord: "..."
"Is it possible that one of them went out but you didn't notice?" The Fox Queen of Qingqiu didn't think she would have a child for a man. Besides, even if she did have a child, would she abandon her husband and child?
Abandoning one's husband might be possible, but abandoning one's child is absolutely impossible.
The elders looked at her with a hint of pity.
The Fox Lord of Qingqiu saw an undeniable truth in their eyes.
Their fox clan consists of only a small number of people, so there's no way they could have missed anyone.
Elder Qing reminded her, "If you want to see if they are your offspring, you can simply meet with them."
It's not difficult to verify someone's identity.
The Fox Lord of Qingqiu's eyes flashed. "Alright, I'll go and meet them."
She did some quick calculations with her fingers, and then her face instantly turned as black as charcoal.
"What's wrong?" the elder asked anxiously.
"They went to Misty Mountain," the Fox Lord of Qingqiu said through gritted teeth. "Are they tired of living if they go to that place?!"
"What?!" They were all shocked at the same time.
"How could they have gone to that place?" Elder Qing was pacing anxiously. "Nine Infants is there, who can defeat him!" Could it be that the two children haven't even been reunited yet, and they've already perished in the Misty Mountain?
The elders were also extremely anxious.
"No, we have to find them!" How can the descendants of the fox clan die at the hands of Jiuying!
At this very moment, Qin Zhi and Jiang Si were secretly sneaking into the Misty Mountain.
It's no exaggeration to say that Wushan is shrouded in fog year-round, so thick that you can't see your hand in front of your face.
If you forcefully use your spiritual power, not only will you easily alert the enemy, but you will also waste a lot of energy, losing half of your strength before you even have a chance to fight.
Fortunately, they were prepared.
The two exchanged a glance and silently took out their infrared night vision goggles and put them on.
This was obtained by Qin Zhi; it's military grade, so it can pass through regardless of how thick the fog is.
Thanks to modern technology.
There were almost no small animals in the Fog Mountain, and the Fog Mountain was very large. They had to rely on instruments to walk forward step by step. Finally, they saw a red image hundreds of meters away.
Jiuying truly lived up to its reputation as a great ancient demon.
Its size was unknown, but from their distance, it looked about the size of a small mountain.
At this moment, Jiuying remained motionless, seemingly asleep.
But they knew it was impossible to sneak up. Monsters like the Nine-Headed Serpent always had several heads taking turns sleeping, while the others were always watching.
In ancient times, there were too many powerful demons. If you were not careful, you might become someone else's meal. You had to stay alert at all times.
Even though Jiuying is now almost invincible, it still retains this habit.
The two communicated remotely.
Is it really that big of a science?
"It's not scientifically sound to begin with."
The Resurrection Grass is indeed quite rare, as it only grows in Wushan and is guarded by Jiuying. However, it's not exactly rare either, as it's abundant under Jiuying.
“We can’t beat them because of their size, how about we launch a sneak attack?” Jiang Si said.
"Difficult." Qin Zhi shook his head. "The two of us can ambush two of his heads, but the other seven heads can cripple us as well." Although he was talking about a matter of life and death, Qin Zhi's tone remained unusually calm.
"How about we use a feint?" Jiang Si suggested. "One of us will lure him away, and the other will go and pick the fruit. Once we've picked it, we'll give a signal and then we'll retreat immediately." As long as they're fast enough to escape from the Misty Mountain, that's fine. Anyway, the Nine-Headed Serpent can't leave the Misty Mountain.
Qin Zhi pondered.
There doesn't seem to be a better way at the moment.
A head-on confrontation is absolutely not an option.
"Then who should go?" Qin Zhi asked.
"I'll take it," Jiang Si said.
Her escape skills were considered the best in the Three Realms at the time, and no one could catch her.
"Okay." Qin Zhi didn't dwell on it. "Just remember to be careful."
Jiang Si gave an OK sign.
Jiang Si flew into the air and released all her spiritual power.
In an instant, spiritual pressure swept across the entire misty mountain.
As if sensing something, the sleeping Nine-Headed Serpent instantly raised all nine of its heads, its golden snake eyes fixed on Jiang Si in the air, radiating a chilling light, as if it were being stared at by the Grim Reaper.
Jiang Si was once a prized disciple of Qingyun Temple, so her strength was not to be underestimated. Even Jiuying felt a slight threat to her.
This feels so much like those upright people back then.
Jiang Si drew out the demon-slaying talisman and struck Jiuying with her hands in a hand seal.
She used almost half her strength, but when this force struck Jiuying, it only caused her no pain or discomfort.
Nine-Headed Serpent seemed to already know Jiang Si's strength. Two of its heads looked down at the small wounds caused by the demon-slaying talisman, while the other seven heads had a cold killing intent in their eyes, along with a faint sense of mockery.
This is a trivial skill; it's an overestimation of one's abilities.
Jiang Si was constantly on guard against Jiu Ying's attacks.
Jiuying seemed unable to tolerate the provocation from this nobody, and several of its snake heads rushed straight towards Jiang Si.
The distance of several hundred meters was covered in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Si reacted within 0.01 seconds.
He turned and ran.
Jiuying was fast, but Jiang Si was even faster, instantly creating a distance of over a hundred meters.
Jiang Si ran wildly ahead.
As she fled, she didn't forget to look back once more.
This sight sent chills down my spine.
The Nine-Headed Serpent chased after her, its head extending infinitely while its body barely moved an inch.
Nine slender snakes rushed toward her, each with its gaping, blood-red mouth open, and if you got close, you could even smell the stench emanating from them.
What frustrates Jiang Si is that it seems these nine snake heads are in competition to catch up with her, and all want to devour her.
It seems they've been starving for far too long.
Jiang Si fled even faster, praying that Qin Zhi would finish quickly.
On the other side, after the snake's head flew out, Qin Zhi arrived at Jiuying's body at an extremely fast speed.
The resurrection plant was growing around his body.
As soon as he landed, he sensed that someone was watching him.
Qin Zhi looked up and saw that a huge black pupil had opened on Jiuying's body at some point.
With just one glance, Qin Zhi almost couldn't help but utter a curse.
This is the Eye of Hell.
Those with weak will will be sucked into the eye of hell and never be reincarnated.
Legend has it that it contains a black hole that can devour everything.
Even gods and ghosts are not exempt.
Qin Zhi has repeatedly suspected that the black hole observed by so-called scientists is another eye of hell.
The world is vast, who knows?
He didn't understand why the Eye of Hell would appear here, but it was definitely not a good thing.
Qin Zhi tried his best to calm himself down, reached out and put the resurrection grass into his hand, and then quickly retreated.
Just as he was about to retreat, the Eye of Hell extended wisps of black energy. This black energy meandered out and twisted eerily toward Qin Zhi. Just as a wisp of black energy was about to touch him, a whip quickly pulled him away from the Eye of Hell.
Before Qin Zhi could speak, he heard a sweet, flirtatious voice say in a very irritable tone, "What are you standing there for? Run away now!"
