Fox Abyss is located in the heart of the desolate region, a place of treacherous terrain and shrouded in a thick fog year-round.
Upon entering the Spirit Fox Abyss, the first thing that comes into view is a vast valley. In the center of the valley stands a magnificent temple. The temple is built from a huge piece of white jade.
Around the valley, there are many caves and pavilions scattered in a well-organized manner, with fox clan members coming and going from time to time.
Inside the temple, three figures sat around a huge stone table, but all three wore expressions of anger.
Bang!
"This is outrageous! We already don't have enough spots, and these people still dare to interfere!"
Of the three, the old man in the red robe slammed his hand on the stone table, his aged face revealing barely suppressed anger.
"If Clan Chief Feng Liao was dissatisfied, why didn't you speak up back then? Now that you've agreed, why are you here, impotently furious?"
As the clan leader of the Feng Liao clan slammed his hand on the table, the woman in the wide blue dress beside him frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes. She was none other than the Silver Frost Clan leader of the Frost Moon Silver Fox Clan. She flicked her sleeves, her cold gaze falling on Feng Liao, her voice clear yet carrying a touch of chill.
"Gentlemen, please calm down. We are facing a common enemy. If we start fighting amongst ourselves, wouldn't we become a laughingstock to outsiders?"
Hearing the two start arguing, Du Yu, the chieftain of the Dark Shadow Poison Fox Clan, who was sitting in the middle, tried to mediate with some annoyance.
"I just can't stand some people who don't express their opinions beforehand, but then throw a tantrum here afterwards."
Chief Silverfrost frowned, a hint of cold displeasure flashing in her eyes.
The Poisonous Clan Chief snorted coldly, his wrinkles becoming even more pronounced with displeasure. His withered lips moved as if he wanted to say something more.
Just then, a commotion was heard outside.
The once quiet temple was now filled with the sounds of noisy voices and fluctuations of spiritual energy.
The three exchanged a glance, a hint of displeasure flashing in their eyes.
The already irritated Shadow Clan Chief frowned even more. "What's going on outside?"
Before they could take any action, a fox clan disciple rushed in, knelt on one knee, and spoke urgently:
"Three clan leaders, something terrible has happened! Humans have intruded into our Fox Abyss and are heading straight for the Holy Temple!"
"What?!" Chief Feng Liao stood up abruptly, a look of disbelief and anger flashing in his eyes. "Humans? How dare they openly trespass on my Fox Clan's sacred temple!"
The Poison Guardian Chieftain also stood up with a solemn expression. "Strange, why have humans been coming to cause us trouble lately?"
Silver Frost's expression turned cold as she narrowed her eyes, taking the opportunity to vent her humiliation from before:
"Hmph, since he's come to us of his own accord, let's meet him face to face and see what makes him so arrogant. I refuse to believe that a mere human can ride roughshod over us!"
The three walked out of the temple.
In the center of the temple square, Qin Luo stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an invisible sense of oppression.
Around him, a group of fox clan disciples were staggering about, all covered in dust and looking disheveled, their clothes in disarray and their spiritual energy fluctuations appearing chaotic.
The disciples' eyes were filled with resentment. They gritted their teeth and unconsciously clenched their fists. However, when they looked at the figure in the center of the square, they couldn't help but feel fear and dared not rush forward.
Not far away, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard, and a large number of fox clan members were rushing towards the square.
Upon closer inspection, they were all members of the three lineages: Shadow Poison Fox, Wind Ember Swift Fox, and Frost Moon Silver Fox.
They looked hurried, some holding weapons, others with spiritual energy surging around them, their faces filled with vigilance and anger, as they surrounded Qin Luo, the middle-aged man behind him, and Nuantang.
The middle-aged man standing behind Qin Luo never expected Qin Luo to act so "decisively".
He originally thought Qin Luo would plan carefully before acting, but he didn't expect him to just barge in like this.
At this moment, the area was densely packed with fox clan experts, their overwhelming aura making it hard to breathe. The middle-aged man felt his heart leap into his throat, and worry surged within him.
His body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and his lips turned bloodless from excessive tension.
Nuantang was so frightened by the tense situation that her face turned ashen, and she clung to her father like a startled fawn.
Her large, watery eyes were filled with terror and helplessness. She instinctively clutched her father's clothes, her voice trembling with tears as she whispered, "Father..."
The middle-aged man tried to remain calm, patting Nuantang's hand in an attempt to comfort her. But his own voice trembled slightly as he said, "Don't be afraid..."
People from the fox clan surged in from all directions, instantly turning the once empty square into a bustling hub of activity, creating an increasingly tense and oppressive atmosphere.
Upon seeing this, Qin Luo's eyes sharpened, and his aura instantly surged. A layer of light emanated from beneath his feet, and the aura of primordial chaos quietly began to flow.
Strands of primordial energy coiled around his ankles, gradually spreading to his entire soles. Then, he stomped his foot hard on the ground, a stomp that exploded like a bomb in the center of the square.
Bang!
In an instant, an unparalleled ripple of power emanated from Qin Luo, spreading wildly outwards in a ring shape. It whipped up a howling wind, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound.
Caught off guard, the fox clan members were thrown off balance by the sudden, powerful force. They scrambled to circulate their spiritual energy, forming varying degrees of spiritual energy barriers around themselves in an attempt to withstand the overwhelming impact.
Some of the weaker fox clan disciples, despite their best efforts, were still forced to retreat repeatedly, staggering and nearly falling to the ground.
The stronger fox clan experts, though barely managing to steady themselves, also showed solemn expressions, clearly indicating that Qin Luo's strength far exceeded their expectations.
Just then, the three clan leaders rushed over. Their faces, which had been filled with obvious anger, instantly turned solemn upon witnessing the scene before them.
Du Yu's eyes slowly narrowed, his aged yet gloomy gaze fixed on Qin Luo, never looking away for a moment.
The wrinkles on his face deepened with extreme surprise. "This kid's step seems to have some trick up his sleeve."
He muttered to himself, originally convinced that Qin Luo was nothing more than an arrogant fool who didn't know his own limitations. But now, he realized that he had seriously underestimated the human in front of him.
Feng Liao's brows were furrowed into a tight knot, and his gray beard trembled uncontrollably, telling of his inner turmoil.
As the chieftain of the Wind Ember Fox Clan, he was extremely perceptive of power. The power that Qin Luo was displaying at this moment filled him with a strong and indescribable unease.
Yinshuang's expression was also solemn. Her usually aloof face was now devoid of any previous frivolity, replaced by deep vigilance.
The three clan leaders exchanged glances instinctively, each catching the same worry in the other's eyes.
