Qing Li smiled and used her fingertips to hook the ends of her wet hair. "When it comes to allure, all the women in the six realms combined can't compare to the clan leader's charm."
"Oh, smooth talk."
...
Listening to the ambiguous sounds coming from outside, Su Man, hiding in the closet, was doubting her life.
What's going on? I'm ready for an action movie, but I have to watch an "action movie" first?
Fortunately, Zi Xiangli still remembered that there was an audience member in the cabinet. When Qingli held her waist and kissed her passionately, she hooked her hand behind Qingli's back and flipped it. A bone spur appeared in her palm. Without hesitation, she stabbed Qingli directly in the back.
Just as the silver-gleaming spike was about to pierce his flesh, Qingli suddenly held down her arm.
Zi Xiangli didn't expect that he would still be on guard against her at this moment, so she stopped pretending, bent her knees, and spun around to break free from his restraints.
Compared to her, Qingli's movements were much slower. He slowly stood up from the couch and asked, "What do you mean, Chief?"
"What do I mean? Why don't you first tell me how you've been controlling me and using the lives of my people to curry favor with the Celestial Clan for so many years!"
"you..."
Qingli paused, "Did Shi Man tell you? Has she been here?"
"Oh, you admit it, right?"
Qing Li breathed a sigh of relief. "Things are not as simple as you think. If we don't reassure the Emperor of Heaven, it won't just be the Nine-Tailed Fox lineage that will be implicated."
"Implicate? My fox clan has always been law-abiding. What is there to be implicated?"
Qingli smiled bitterly, "Chief, I am also a descendant of the Nine-Tailed Fox. Those who died were all my relatives. How could I kill them without a reason?"
"What's the reason?"
Facing Zi Xiangli's questioning, Qingli did not give a direct answer, "Believe me, everything I do is for you and for the fox clan."
"High Priest, you don't really think I'm a 28-year-old girl, do you? Since you won't tell me, then we can only fight with swords."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zi Xiangli attacked with the bone spur in his hand.
As Zi Xiangli had said before, Qing Li, a nine-tailed fox, possessed considerable magical power. If he truly attacked her, she wouldn't last more than a few rounds. However, he clearly didn't want to harm her, so he couldn't do anything to her for a while.
While Qingli was facing away from the wardrobe, Su Man took action when the time came. She caught Qingli off guard and locked her up with black mist.
"Shiman?"
Qingli was stunned for a moment before he reacted, but he didn't take Su Man seriously. The Nine-tailed Fox lineage was born with supernatural powers, otherwise they would not be feared by the Emperor of Heaven.
Sure enough, he put his palms together, one above and the other below, and in an instant, the black mist disappeared.
"The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan is blessed by Heaven. The evil power is useless to me."
"Really?"
Su Man turned his palm, and the black energy turned into golden light. "Ghost power is useless, what about immortal power?"
Under Qingli's astonished eyes, the golden light gathered into a shield and came down directly.
