Yinshuang secretly speculated that as long as she could win Qin Luo's heart and make him treat her with affection, even if that senior was dissatisfied, she could still secure a place in this complicated situation by relying on Qin Luo's favor.
Perhaps, this could bring unexpected benefits to himself and the fox clan, making him a pivotal figure within the fox clan.
"My lord, please believe me this once," Yinshuang said softly, her voice as sweet as honey, with a rising tone at the end, carrying a hint of flattery.
She stretched out her fair fingers and gently tugged at Qin Luo's sleeve, her large, watery eyes filled with anticipation.
"My Frostmoon Silver Fox clan has always had an extraordinary sensitivity to scents, and I am very confident in this regard."
As she spoke, she flicked her fluffy tail again, which drew a graceful arc in the air and brushed against Qin Luo's hand. The furry touch made her secretly happy.
She observed Qin Luo's expression and saw that he did not immediately refuse, which made her even more certain of her idea, feeling that her charm technique had begun to show results.
Qin Luo didn't pay much attention to the suggestions made by Feng Liao, Yin Shuang, and others at the moment.
After confirming that they could not provide any accurate information about the Taixu Sacred Lotus, he was pondering whether he should first find a secluded place to begin absorbing the Saint Realm spiritual energy returned and stored by Dongfang Jinyao.
Although his dantian appears to be completely dark and devoid of any light, the abundance of spiritual energy it contains is something that ordinary cultivators wouldn't even dare to imagine.
The more resources one has in this ancestral land, the more confident one is in protecting oneself during crises; this is always a safer approach.
However, he couldn't help but feel some worry.
If the Great Void Sacred Lotus were to suddenly appear while I was absorbing spiritual energy, and I missed it because I was in seclusion, I would regret it immensely.
Just as Qin Luo was deep in thought, he suddenly felt a soft, furry touch on his palm.
This made him subconsciously give it a gentle squeeze, and immediately Yinshuang's charming voice rang out:
"Sir~"
The voice, carrying wisps of electricity, gently entered Qin Luo's ears, its lingering tone filled with a captivating coquettishness and alluring charm.
At the same time, a perfectly placed blush crept onto Yinshuang's cheeks, adding an indescribable charm to her already elegant and noble appearance.
Those big, watery eyes were full of shyness.
The hint of reproach at the corners of her mouth perfectly captured the charm of a mature woman, captivating all who beheld her.
"My lord, you've hurt Silverfrost!"
Seeing Qin Luo's gaze fall upon her, Yin Shuang's voice grew even softer, carrying a hint of ingratiation.
As she spoke, she swayed the tail that Qin Luo was holding, the fluffy, soft silver fox tail brushing against Qin Luo's palm, the touch delicate.
Yinshuang unconsciously moved a little closer to Qin Luo, and the fragrance emanating from her body, like a wisp of mist, lingered around Qin Luo's nose.
Witnessing this scene, Nuantang felt a strong sense of displeasure rising in her heart.
Recalling how the Silverfrost Clan Chief had been relentlessly inquiring about Young Master Qin from her not long ago, she hadn't thought much of it at the time, but now it seemed she had such ulterior motives.
She took a step forward, coughed, and said somewhat indignantly, "Chief Silverfrost, please watch your manners. We are now in the ancestral land, surrounded by dangers. Please do not be so... so frivolous."
Yinshuang glanced at Nuantang sideways, a contemptuous smile curving her lips, her eyes full of disdain.
"That's strange, Nuantang. I was merely offering advice to you, sir. How did that become frivolous?"
The innocent Nuantang didn't know how to refute it. Her fair face turned red with frustration. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't find the right words. She could only clench her fists, her body trembling slightly.
Seeing this, Yue Lishan felt even more contempt for these fox clan members.
If her life hadn't been threatened, she wouldn't have fallen to such a state, associating with these people. But no matter how difficult her situation, she still held fast to the last shred of dignity in her heart.
Thinking of this, Yue Lishan frowned, her eyes beneath her black robe filled with disdain. She snorted inwardly, thinking: These fox clan members are indeed as frivolous as ever, utterly lacking in manners.
She was proud of her noble bloodline, so how could she possibly take these uncultured fox women seriously?
At this moment, Yue Lishan simply stood quietly to the side, her arms crossed over her chest, her face beneath the black robe filled with aloofness and disdain.
He watched the conflict between Yinshuang and Nuantang with indifferent eyes, as if he were watching a farce.
"Hmph, speechless now." Looking at Nuantang's flushed cheeks, Yinshuang snorted and moved closer to Qin Luo again. "My lord, please don't listen to Nuantang's nonsense. I'm only focused on helping us find the Taixu Sacred Lotus this time. I have no other intentions."
Feeling the slightly cool silver fox tail in his hand, Qin Luo couldn't help but think of Nuantang's pale purple fox tail.
The pale purple fox tail was soft and fluffy, with a unique warmth and gentleness. Every time you touched it, you could feel Nuantang's docility and obedience.
The silver fox tail before me, though equally soft, exuded a chilling aura.
This made Qin Luo squeeze the silver fox tail in his hand again before letting go, a look of annoyance on his face. He said softly:
"Okay, stop arguing."
Although his voice was not loud, it carried an undeniable authority that made people dare not disobey him easily.
Upon hearing Qin Luo's words, Yin Shuang immediately obediently stepped aside, but her body still leaned towards Qin Luo. Her silver fox tail swept around Qin Luo intentionally or unintentionally, as if silently declaring something, and her eyes undisguisedly revealed her provocation towards Nuantang.
Nuantang bit her lip tightly, turning her pink lips white, her eyes glistening with tears, her heart full of grievances almost overflowing, as if silently accusing Yinshuang of what she had done.
Qin Luo naturally noticed Yin Shuang's provocative gaze and deliberate actions. Although he was somewhat annoyed by this pointless conflict, Yin Shuang's behavior was really too much. If he didn't teach her a lesson, she would probably become even more reckless in the future.
He then turned to look at Yinshuang, his eyes carrying a hint of coldness, his tone calm yet heavy:
"Stop with your little schemes. If they ruin my important plans because of them, you won't be able to take the blame."
Yinshuang had been wearing a smug expression, but when she heard Qin Luo's serious words, her heart skipped a beat, and her smile instantly froze.
She instinctively lowered her head, not daring to meet Qin Luo's gaze again, and whispered:
“Your words are correct, sir. Silver Frost knows she was wrong.”
However, she was not entirely frivolous, thinking to herself that she had only argued with Nuantang a few times, and that it hadn't caused any major problems.
