The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Then I will first tell you about the Demon King's plan to marry a princess."
Yu Jinshu nodded and listened with great interest.
Although there are some instructions in the book, it is not comprehensive. For example, the book only says that the demon king is going to marry a princess, but it does not say why he wants to marry a princess at this time.
The shopkeeper began to describe the situation vividly: "The Demon King has lived for tens of thousands of years, but he has never married a princess. His mother, the Dowager Concubine, became ill from anger, and no medicine could cure her. The Demon King had no other choice, but to make his mother happy, he promised to marry a princess this time and have children."
Yu Jinshu asked, "What kind of demon is the Demon King?"
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "Miss, the demon king is a hybrid of human and fox."
Yu Jinshu's beautiful eyes widened in shock. "What? Are you saying that the Demon King is a hybrid of human and fox?"
The shopkeeper nodded: "Yes, the demon king's father is human, and his mother is fox."
Yu Jinshu was furious when she heard this, but she didn't intend to let the shopkeeper know her true identity, so she suppressed her anger and said tentatively:
"I just heard that the Concubine issued an order saying that fox spirits are prone to seducing men, so fox spirits are not included in the registration. But the Concubine is a fox spirit herself, so how could she look down on fox spirits?"
The shopkeeper laughed and said, “The fox demon clan is indeed good at bewitching men.
Although the concubine is a fox demon, she is a rare good fox demon among fox demons.
Back then, she was devoted to the demon king's human father. After the demon king's father passed away a hundred years ago, the concubine never had another man and remained a virgin for the demon king's father.
When the concubine became the leader of the fox clan, there were strict rules and regulations, and the fox clan followed the rules for many years.
But later, for the sake of her son, the concubine gave up being the leader of the fox tribe, and the leader who took over happened to be a junior sister who had a conflict with her.
Since then, the fox clan began to fall into chaos, and went from the righteous path to the evil path.
Now the fox tribe is no longer ruled by the demon king. They live in a corner of the world and often come out to cause trouble and seduce the opposite sex among humans and even demons.
They will absorb the essence of the opposite sex of the human race and the demon core of the opposite sex of the demon race to help their cultivation."
Yu Jinshu finally understood, "I see! It seems that the concubine's family has really disappointed her."
The shopkeeper said, "Isn't that right? Otherwise, if we were to go by bloodline, the Concubine would definitely want her family to marry the Demon King, and she wouldn't have banned the Fox Clan from registering as the Princess."
When Yu Jinshu heard this, he had some ideas in his mind.
She asked, "But I don't know where the fox tribe is?"
The shopkeeper hurriedly took out a sheepskin map from under the cabinet and said, "This is the map of our demon tribe. If you want it, young lady, I will give it to you."
Yu Jinshu hurriedly took the sheepskin map and said with a smile, "Thank you, shopkeeper!"
The shopkeeper pointed to the lower right corner and said, "Look, girl, the fox tribe is right here."
Yu Jinshu looked at the lower right corner and said, "The fox tribe occupies quite a large area!"
Shopkeeper: "Isn't it?"
Yu Jinshu asked, "The fox tribe is harming people like this, but the demon king doesn't care?"
The shopkeeper said, "I heard that the Concubine didn't allow him to take charge. After all, he is from the Concubine's family. The Demon King is decisive in killing people, and the Concubine is worried that he will destroy the Fox Clan in a rage."
Yu Jinshu smiled and said, "Thank you for telling me so much, boss!"
All the news she needed most.
She returned to her room, lay on the couch, and wondered what to do next.
It seems that I still need to understand the results of the Demon King's selection of concubines today.
At dinner, she sat in the dining room of the inn.
The inn's dining hall is very large, and most of the people who come here to stay and dine are those who are participating in the selection of the Demon Princess.
In the cafeteria, many girls could be seen crying.
There were also three people who were in a particularly good mood.
According to their companions, they were selected and would be able to enter the royal city tomorrow to participate in the first round of the princess selection.
The royal city is the outer city of the Demon King's Palace and cannot be considered a real palace.
I heard that the selection of the Demon King’s Consort has a total of five stages.
The first three levels must be completed in the royal city, and the fourth level is required to enter the palace. First, the demon king's mother will be selected, and after that, the demon king will be selected.
It is said that it will take about a month to complete the first three rounds of selection, mainly to understand the temperament of the selected candidates.
It took a month to enter the inner palace!
When Yu Jinshu heard that it had been a month, she felt relieved.
After a good rest that night, she checked out of the room the next day and went to the fox tribe.
The fox clan is in the western part of the demon realm.
The town adjacent to the Fox Tribe is called Luozhou.
Yu Jinshu settled down in Luozhou and found an inn to stay in.
Luozhou is not like the Demon City, the streets are neat and clean.
Instead it looks dirty and messy.
The people here are not like those in the Demon City. They are all dressed in gorgeous clothes and look bright and beautiful.
What made Yu Jinshu feel strange was that this place had mountains and water, and a vast flat area, so it should be a rich place.
There are many shops on the street, but they are all vacant.
The entire town and village seemed lifeless.
After some inquiries, I learned that Luozhou used to be very prosperous and was a gathering place for human beings.
They all came to Luozhou through Boyao Valley.
They were attracted by the richness, vast land, and abundant spiritual energy here.
Some come here to settle down and practice.
Some come here to live a carefree life.
There are also those who travel between the human race and the demon realm, doing business to make money.
But later, the new leader of the fox clan, Yu Chi, began to lead the fox clan, and the fox clan began to harm the human race, and sometimes also harm the demon clan whose cultivation was lower than theirs.
At that time, human beings would die inexplicably almost every few days.
The shops on the streets were vacant because their owners had either died or been scared away, causing the entire Luozhou city to become like a dead city.
On the way to Luozhou, Yu Jinshu changed into men's robes and dressed like a man.
The night she arrived in Luozhou, she wandered the streets, hoping to encounter a fox demon.
In order to conceal her identity, she even bought a perfume from the system mall.
The instructions say that this perfume can mask body odor.
Fox demons all have a strange fragrance on their bodies. If they don't cover it up, they will definitely be recognized by their own kind.
Now, she looks and smells like a human.
Like the human race who just came to Luozhou through Boyao Valley.
Yu Jinshu was both lucky and unfortunate. She saw a woman walking towards her on the dark street.
She is a demon and can see at night.
And she bought a magic mirror in the system mall.
Under the magic mirror, the woman who came was actually a fox.
But not the nine-tailed fox.
It is said that the fox tribe is divided into several races.
The nine-tailed fox is a noble among the fox clan.
Because nine tails are not innate, but acquired through cultivation.
Yu Jinshu was lucky enough to find a nine-tailed fox with great cultivation level when he traveled through time.
I heard that only the nine-tailed fox can become the leader of the fox tribe.
In this case, the demon king's mother is also a nine-tailed fox.
The current leader Yu Chi is also included.
The fox demon that approached her was hemp-colored. Among the fox clan, it was the fox demon with the lowest cultivation level.
