Chapter 230 Slapping the Face of the Heartless Cultivator 8
Leng Yuexing rushed to the place where the sound came from and saw two groups of men in black fighting each other.
Unable to distinguish which side the men in black belonged to, Leng Yuexing could only watch from the sidelines.
He noticed that the men in black all possessed various magical artifacts, which could assist them in battle, but most of them were designed to target demonic beasts and had limited power.
Meanwhile, the other man in black was wielding a sword to fight back.
After a moment of contemplation, Leng Yuexing transformed into human form and attacked the man in black who was holding the magical artifact.
Even though Leng Yuexing only had a small amount of spiritual power in his body, he still managed to knock those men in black to the ground with a single blow.
Upon seeing this, the other group of men in black stepped forward and tied them up.
By the time Huangfu Ming arrived, the fight had already ended.
He quickly walked to Leng Yuexing's side and asked worriedly, "Are you injured?"
Leng Yuexing shook her head, "They can't hurt me at all."
Huangfu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the guard kneeling beside him, "What happened?"
"Your Majesty, we were patrolling when we discovered these people attempting to penetrate deep into the White Fox Clan's territory, so we went to stop them."
“Well done. Take them back and interrogate them thoroughly. Make sure you find out who’s behind them,” Huangfu Ming said coldly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the guard replied, then waved for the other guards to take the man in black back to the headquarters of the Dark Hall.
Leng Yuexing picked up a magical artifact that the man in black had left behind, and after channeling his spiritual power into it, his expression turned cold.
This is a magical artifact that can absorb the spiritual power of demonic beasts. Once it locks onto a demonic beast, it will not stop until all of the beast's spiritual power is drained.
The person who created this magical artifact is utterly despicable!
"Watch out!" Huangfu Ming quickly took the magic weapon from Leng Yuexing's hand.
"This magic weapon can absorb the spiritual power of demonic beasts. Be careful it doesn't hurt you."
Huangfu Ming shattered the magic weapon with his sword, saying, "This magic weapon is entirely filled with the spiritual power of demonic beasts."
Leng Yuexing stared at the shattered, lifeless magic weapon. "If I find out who made this magic weapon, I'll make them suffer the pain of losing their spiritual power!"
"Perhaps these men in black were sent by the person who injured me. They all have in common that they want the spiritual power of the demon beasts."
Huangfu Ming's eyes suddenly darkened, and with a light wave of his arm, the shattered magic weapon instantly turned into dust.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find this person!"
The surrounding trees trembled slightly due to the murderous aura emanating from Huangfu Ming.
Leng Yuexing grasped Huangfu Ming's hand, "Once you find it, hand it over to me. I want to avenge this personally."
“Okay,” Huangfu Ming replied.
Afterwards, the two continued their journey towards the White Fox Clan's territory deep within the forest.
After walking for about half an incense stick's time, the two finally arrived in front of an ancient tree. This ancient tree towered into the clouds, like a huge green sword piercing the sky.
Its trunk is incredibly thick, and its bark is rough and hard, covered with the marks of time and mottled moss.
After Leng Yuexing bowed, she reached out and released a wisp of spiritual energy beside the ancient tree. This wisp of spiritual energy touched the barrier of the White Fox Clan's territory, and in the next instant, the barrier opened up an entrance in front of the two of them, large enough for one person to pass through.
Leng Yuexing led Huangfu Ming into the barrier.
The view ahead suddenly opened up, and a flat grassland appeared before the two of them; this was the territory of the White Fox Clan.
On the grass, you can see some white figures moving about. They are agile and quick, as fast as lightning.
In the center of the meadow stood a wooden house. The moment the two appeared in the tribe's territory, a white figure stepped out of the house.
She was tall and slender, but when you looked at her wrinkled face, you knew she was old.
Upon seeing Leng Yuexing, she revealed a gentle and loving smile. She stepped forward and said kindly, "Yuexing, you're back? Good child, you've finally successfully transformed."
Upon meeting her, Leng Yuexing knew that she was Elder Xue, the sole elder of the White Fox Clan mentioned in the information.
Leng Yuexing crossed her arms in front of her chest and bowed respectfully, saying, "Elder Xue."
"Good child, come in and sit down," Elder Xue said, opening the wooden door.
Leng Yuexing led Huangfu Ming into the wooden house. The interior was simply furnished yet cozy, with a soft bed in the corner covered with thick quilts.
The hall was spacious and warm, furnished with a long table and several wooden chairs.
Elder Xue sat upright at the table, gesturing for Leng Yuexing and Huangfu Ming to sit down as well.
With a kind expression, she gently placed a stack of pastries from the table in front of Leng Yuexing, and asked, "And who is this person beside you...?"
"He is Huangfu Ming," Leng Yuexing introduced.
"Huangfu Ming, Huangfu..." Elder Xue stared at Huangfu Ming, noticing the dragon aura emanating from him, and exclaimed in surprise, "Could he be the current emperor?" After saying that, Elder Xue wanted to get up and pay her respects.
Huangfu Ming stood up, helped Elder Xue sit down with his hand, and said gently, "Elder, there's no need for such formalities."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Elder Xue paused for a moment, then smiled.
"I wonder what brings Your Majesty here?" Elder Xue asked.
Huangfu Ming turned and glanced at Leng Yuexing. "Yuexing was worried about the situation in the clan and wanted to come back to see, so I came with him."
Upon hearing this, Elder Xue nodded and said, "I see. In the past few days, many suspicious-looking humans have indeed appeared near the clan's territory, but they have not been able to enter the territory and cannot harm us."
“Elder Xue, they’ve all come for the spiritual power within us,” Leng Yuexing added from the side.
"Oh?" Elder Xue's expression turned cold upon hearing this, a sharp glint flashing in her kind eyes. "Hmph! If they dare to invade our clan's territory, I'll make sure they never return!"
Leng Yuexing sensed Elder Xue's strength and concluded that he was at the peak of the Qi Refining stage, not yet at the Foundation Establishment stage.
With such strength, it would be quite difficult to encounter those high-level magic treasures. Moreover, after observing for a moment, he found that the clan consisted mostly of young foxes who had just entered the Qi Refining stage, and their strength was very weak.
He had just lost his inner core and it would take him at least half a year to recover his spiritual power. The cultivator who harmed him seemed to have gone into hiding and he couldn't find him for the time being. This was also a huge hidden danger for the White Fox Clan.
Leng Yuexing looked worried, her brows furrowed.
Upon seeing this, Huangfu Ming grasped Leng Yuexing's hand, then looked at Elder Xue and gently suggested, "If Elder Xue agrees, I can set up several more layers of barriers, just in case."
Upon hearing this, Elder Xue nodded and said, "Then thank you very much, Your Majesty."
“The people of Yuexing are my people, and naturally I don’t want anything to happen to you,” Huangfu Ming said frankly.
Elder Xue glanced at the two of them and said with a light laugh, "It's rare to find true lovers in this world. Now that someone has come to protect the moon and stars, I can rest assured."
Just as Leng Yuexing was about to say something, a little white fox suddenly darted out from outside the door and pounced into Leng Yuexing's arms.
"嘤嘤嘤!"
