Chapter 98
Chapter 98
The Five-Tailed Demon Fox and the others had been waiting here for several days, enduring numerous hardships, all for the sake of waiting for the birth of a precious treasure.
When the tribulation of the day passed and the storm barrier disappeared, she disregarded everything and rushed over to the vicinity of the heavenly tribulation, searching for that treasure. However, instead of finding the treasure, she saw a bald, naked man!
She became furious:
Not only did he steal her treasure, but he also turned out to be such a pervert!
She couldn't bear it!
She stood up, shedding her Five-Tailed Fox form and transforming into a perfect-looking woman.
"You bald pervert, you're not getting away! Leave my treasure behind!" she exclaimed.
Seeing the perverted bald man about to leave, she quickly shouted and rushed towards him.
Witnessing Qin Ran and Chasing the Wind relying on each other and saving each other under the heavenly tribulation, their close relationship was truly enviable.
The stunning woman sighed, "He's an alchemist, yet he can make spirit beasts so loyal to him...
"I wonder what methods he used. I'd like to learn a thing or two. Speaking of which, he has so many unknown things about him, it's truly amazing."
"Aren't we supposed to give him the Immortal Spirit Invitation?" the Jade-faced Man chuckled. "Once he joins the Lingnan Immortal Sect, there will be plenty of opportunities."
"The Immortal Sect isn't that easy to enter..." Elder Ning said meaningfully.
"With such excellent cultivation and strength, how could he not enter the Immortal Sect?" the stunning woman said.
Elder Ning shook his head without answering.
He saw the storm barrier dissipate and saw a Five-Tailed Fox demon rushing towards Qin Ran before him. He rode on a cloud and said, "Let's go and take a look first. Don't let him be lured away by the Fox demon."
Qin Ran turned around and saw the charming woman rushing towards him. At first, he was struck by her beauty, but it took him a moment to realize that he had seen this face somewhere before.
But regardless of whether he had seen her or not, she was still a woman, and he needed to find something to wear first.
"Um... clothes!" he awkwardly said.
"Hmph!" The Fox demon rushed to the top of the circular pit created by the heavenly tribulation and suddenly recognized this bald man. Wasn't he the coward who had the desire but lacked the courage to come out? He had wasted so much of her time.
"So, it's you!" she pointed at Qin Ran.
"Me?" Qin Ran was naked and being looked at, feeling extremely uncomfortable. Although he was being looked at by a stunning beauty, he didn't have the mind to recall a woman he had only briefly encountered.
He held Chasing the Wind, blocking the critical areas, and turned his head shyly, asking, "Excuse me, have we met before?"
"We have!" The Five-Tailed Demon Fox crossed her arms and nodded. "But regardless of whether we've met or not, you should leave the treasure behind first!"
"Treasure?" Qin Ran felt confused. This was the damn land of the heavenly tribulation. Where would there be a treasure?
No... Could it be his "treasure"? He looked down and thought, "Could it be that I've encountered a female hooligan trying to take advantage of me?" He felt quite speechless. "How can I leave it behind?"
"Don't move, stand there, take it out, place it on the ground..." The Five-Tailed Demon Fox described the process. "Then walk away, and I'll come and pick it up."
"Ah?" Qin Ran was baffled. Take it out and put it on the ground? Have the cultivation techniques of these Yin-Yang balancing female cultivators become so powerful? Can one's cultivation be absorbed solely through treasures?
"This...this..." he pleaded innocence, "I can't take it out!"
Although he wasn't a lecherous person, this involved his male dignity. He could lose his head and shed blood, but he couldn't lose his precious possession.
"If I tell you to take it out, then take it out! Stop dawdling like a cowardly man!" scolded the Five-Tailed Demon Fox. "You're both lascivious and cowardly! How can there be a man like you?"
"Huh?" Qin Ran remained confused. He could tolerate being called timid, but what did she mean by calling him lascivious? While it's true that men have their natural inclinations, he had disguised himself quite well. "No, seriously, have we met before? Are you slandering me like this?"
"Ah!" Having seduced others before, even though she was a fox demon and seduction was her innate ability, now that she had achieved human form, she had some shame and found it difficult to speak. She had no choice but to threaten, "Just take out your precious possession, or else I'll take action!"
Take action?
Qin Ran sensed the alluring woman's aura, which was much more profound than his own. She was probably an experienced Foundation Establishment cultivator or even a Core Formation cultivator...
He wasn't good at fighting, and it was difficult for him to defeat cultivators of the same level, let alone those stronger than him. He looked around and saw that most of the traps he had set had been destroyed by the heavenly tribulation, so running away wasn't a good option either.
And with Chasing the Wind with him, it was truly adding insult to injury.
Could it be...
Would his reputation as Qin Ran be ruined here?
This was a cultivation world; there should be a method for regenerating limbs, right?!
"What are you looking at with those thief-like eyes? Just take out your precious possession already!" The enchanting woman's hand shone, revealing a sword.
Qin Ran pondered. Han Xin had suffered humiliation under his crotch, but it didn't hinder him from becoming a legendary Immortal Soldier. He had sacrificed his precious possession and step by step reached the pinnacle.
With a determined heart, he thought, Head Sect Leader Yue, Brother Lin, I'll come to accompany you!
Just at that moment, an extremely powerful aura suddenly emerged from the side. He quickly looked over and saw a white cloud in the sky, with seven or eight people on it—men, women, young, and old. There were currently three people, with a middle-aged man around fifty in the center, a handsome young man with a jade-like face on the left, and a beautiful young woman on the right.
This group of people didn't seem to have just arrived; they looked like they had been watching the show for a long time and finally appeared at this critical moment.
Most of them were holding back laughter and looked like they were about to burst.
"It's you again!" The Five-Tailed Demon Fox also noticed this group of people and said angrily, "You're everywhere we go."
These two groups know each other? Qin Ran frowned.
"You fox demon, why haven't you scrammed yet? Do you want me to take action and kill you?" Elder Ning, the middle-aged man around fifty, spoke up and scolded.
Fox demon?!! Qin Ran's eyes narrowed. This woman was a fox demon?
If that was the case...
He had an impression.
He had indeed encountered this fox demon before. During that incident when his foolish disciple lost control of his flying sword, they both ended up stranded in the Hengduan Mountains. It was during that time when they hid in a tree hollow, and something tried to lure him out at night. In the end, he remained resolute and resisted the temptation, causing the creature to transform into a fox and leave.
So, it was that fox demon after all!
"Hmph! Your human race has a saying that geniuses and treasures fall into the hands of the virtuous..." The Five-Tailed Demon Fox still thought they were after some treasure, and she sneered, "I arrived first, so the virtue is mine!"
"Hahaha..." The stunning woman couldn't help herself and burst into laughter. She covered her mouth and said, "What treasure? This daoist friend here was undergoing the Golden Core Tribulation!"
"The Tribulation?!" The fox demon was taken aback. She carefully recollected the events and slowly grasped the situation. It seemed like that was indeed the case.
"Ahem..." With so many people staring at him, Qin Ran couldn't bear it any longer. He raised his hand and spoke, seeking their opinion, "Could I please have some clothes first?!"
