Introductions

After presenting the Soul-Capturing Pearl, Zixuan Zhao Zixuan continued, "In addition, I also have Six Divisions Infinite Scripture, which I also offer to Your Majesty."

As she spoke, Zhao Zixuan pulled out another scroll covered with densely written text.

Upon unfolding it and using the Power of Incense Offerings to decipher it, Yin Yunze discovered that it was indeed an extremely profound cultivation method.

Unfortunately, it was indeed an incomplete scroll, containing only introductory methods for Qi Refining and a few minor Law Technique.

However, although they are minor Law Technique, they are all quite Law Technique.

For example, the "Size at Will" spell is a Law Technique that allows the user to change their body size after use.

It must be said that the contents of this tattered scroll alone are worth the Power of Incense Offerings for one hundred people.

Because it wasn't the right time, Yin Yunze quickly flipped through it and then put it away.

Looking at the little fox girl, Yin Yunze asked curiously, "What are these Six Divisions Infinite Scriptures?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zixuan paused for a rare moment, then cautiously replied, "Your Majesty, the Six Divisions Infinite Scripture are actually only one. It's just that this one scripture is called the Six Divisions Infinite Scripture— "

The "six parts" refer to the Six Paths of Rebirth—and this particular copy is an introductory fragment of the Animal Realm, specifically for us beasts to cultivate. It is said that the Great Radiant Wheel King founded the Heavenly Wheel Sect, with its Six Divisions Infinite Scriptures.

"I see."

Realizing he had made a blunder, Yin Yunze was somewhat embarrassed and changed the subject, saying, "You're willing to offer these two items because I believe you genuinely submit to me. I'm easygoing about everything else and don't like to be harsh on my subordinates, but I hate betrayal the most—"

Although the little fox girl has gained Yin Yunze's trust, she was, after all, a fox demon before, and she still needs to be disciplined.

Besides, since we've already done so many tests, we might as well do one more.

Thinking this, Yin Yunze suddenly felt a little surprised.

Because Yin Yunze discovered that she herself seemed to be treating people differently.

"Humans really are hypocritical—"

He tacitly admitted his double standards, but Yin Yunze did not retract his words.

"Zixuan would never do such a thing!" Zhao Zixuan believed him without a doubt.

In recent days, Zhao Zixuan has also learned from Zhao Wan about Yin Yunze's extremely good treatment of his own people.

Furthermore, from his own personal experience, the bestowal of titles and the granting of authority all demonstrate Yin Yunze's benevolence.

Although Yin Yunze acted with a lighthearted, amused attitude throughout the entire process, Zhao Zixuan still reaped real benefits.

Judge by actions, not intentions; by intentions alone, no one in the world is perfect.

Even if she hadn't read this sentence, as a fox spirit who had spent half her life wandering, Zhao Zixuan understood this principle more deeply than many others.

Knowing this was the final test, Zhao Zixuan immediately disregarded everything and swore an oath. "I swear! If I betray Your Majesty!"

They will surely be torn to pieces, their bones crushed to ashes, their bodies and souls utterly destroyed, suffering a terrible death! Their souls will be eternally condemned to hell, never to be reborn!

Knowing that she was ultimately a tainted outsider fox, Zhao Zixuan, in order to show her stance, left herself no way out.

After all, this is an oath made before the gods. If it is broken, then the oath must be kept.

Of course, Zhao Zixuan felt no unease about making this solemn oath; on the contrary, she felt completely at ease after uttering it.

If the oath is not taken, it will not be fulfilled. So what difference does it make whether the oath was taken or not?

Or perhaps, your god's desire for you to make this solemn oath is actually a sign that they care about you.

After all, if someone is just a tool to be used and discarded, then there's no question of betrayal.

Only when you've become one of our own can the concept of betrayal even exist.

"Good."

Upon hearing Zhao Zixuan swear this solemn oath, Yin Yunze also used the Forge Oaths.

Those originally light words, under the Forge Oaths, transformed into invisible but heavy shackles, falling upon Zhao Zixuan.

Feeling the invisible shackles binding her, Zhao Zixuan's smile grew even brighter.

The Empress is willing to let me fulfill this vow; she truly cares about me!

Seeing that the Forge Oaths been successfully initiated, Yin Yunze nodded in satisfaction. "Then, Xuan'er, come back with us!"

Hearing the change in how Yin Yunze addressed her, the little fox girl became even happier.

"Yes!"

After responding, Zhao Zixuan transformed back into her orange-red fox form.

After emerging from the clothes, the little fox girl carefully folded and put away the shrine maiden's outfit. Then, her size changed from that of a medium-sized dog to that of a giant fox the size of a minivan.

Yin Yunze also recognized it; it was one of the Law Technique recorded in the Animal Realm, Size at Will.

However, Zhao Zixuan was not originally able to use this Law Technique. It was only after Tao Feng Seeking Bestowal Transformation and her Law Power increased that she was able to use this skill.

Bowing respectfully before Yin Yunze, Xuan'er Zhao Zixuan said, "Your Majesty, I may not be of great use, but I can at least serve as your mount, saving you the trouble of traveling. From now on, wherever Your Majesty wishes to go, I will take Xuan'er place!"

Hearing this suggestion, Yin Yunze was somewhat tempted.

After all, riding around on a big fox sounds really interesting.

However, the thought of Zhao Zixuan's humanoid loli appearance made Yin Yunze feel a little guilty.

However, Yin Yunze noticed another interesting point and asked, "Xuan'er, how old are you this year?"

"Xuan'er has grown to be sixty-seven years old since birth—"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zixuan quickly replied, "All these decades of arduous cultivation cannot compare to Your Majesty's reward for just one day—"

Okay, it's not a little girl, it's a grandmother—this isn't a lack of love for children, it's a lack of respect for the elderly!

No, grandma fox, at your age, you used to call me "sister"?

Several complaints arose in his mind, but Yin Yunze also understood that it wasn't appropriate to talk about age with these Demon Cultivators.

Anyway, given her humanoid form—a white-haired, red-eyed, fox-eared loli— Yin Yunze wouldn't actually believe she was a fox grandma.

Now that he knew Zhao Zixuan was a legally recognized loli, Yin Yunze no longer felt guilty.

Flying up and landing on Zhao Zixuan's back, feeling the soft, furry texture, Yin Yunze then beckoned Zhao Wan up as well.

Zhao Zixuan naturally had no objection to Zhao Wan sitting on her lap.

Putting aside the fact that Zhao Zixuan might have frozen solid if Zhao Wan hadn't pleaded for her, the fact that Yin Yunze acted in Zhao Wan's body when they first met already demonstrates the significance Zhao Wan held for Yin Yunze.

"Your Highness, Miss Wan'er, please be seated."

After exchanging greetings, Zhao Zixuan turned around and, without using the Earth Vein Power to slack off, openly carried Yin Yunze's temple away.

Yin Yunze, arm in arm with Zhao Wan, lay down directly in the furry mess.

I touched it casually, and it does feel really nice.

It's a long story, but from the moment Yin Yunze arrived until Zhao Zixuan willingly became his mount and carried Yin Yunze and Zhao Wan back, only a little over half an hour had passed.

On the way back to the temple, we encountered quite a few passersby.

However, upon seeing that it was a large red fox, most passersby were only slightly startled and did not react further.

In their minds, the Lady Qingnü was originally Nine-Tailed Immortal Fox, so it was normal for her to have several foxes at her beck and call.

Although she was a bit big, she didn't hurt anyone.

If she really causes any trouble, the Lady Qingnü will naturally take her away.

Those with sharp eyes even spotted Yin Yunze lying on top of Zhao Zixuan, confirming everyone's guess.

Along the way, without needing further introduction, the news that Lady Qingnü had a large red fox under her command began to spread.

Before arriving at the temple with Yin Yunze, Zhao Zixuan couldn't help but marvel at the magnificent and exquisite Qingnü Temple, as well as its unique ability to glow at night.

However, Yin Yunze did not let Zhao Zixuan enter the Qingnü Temple directly, but instead turned around and came to the front of the witches' dormitory.

Girls don't take long to bathe, and even though the little witches were quite efficient, it still took them more than half an hour just to finish bathing; it wasn't time for them to go to bed yet.

After letting Zhao Wan go in and call all the witches out, Yin Yunze picked up an ice chair.

While sitting in a chair waiting for the witches to come out, Yin Yunze hugged Zhao Zixuan had shrunk to the size of a cat, and stroked her fur.

Zhao Zixuan was overjoyed by Yin Yunze's actions.

Smelling the pure fragrance of incense mixed with the fresh scent of herbs on Yin Yunze's body, and feeling Yin Yunze gentle caresses, Zhao Zixuan squinted her eyes comfortably and let out a soft hum in her throat.

As Yin Yunze teased Zhao Zixuan like a cat to pass the time, the eleven little witches, including Zhao Wan, hurriedly came out from inside.

Although many of them still had wet hair, they generally maintained a presentable appearance.

Looking at Yin Yunze, who was sitting in a chair with a smile, Sun Qin bowed her head respectfully and asked, "Lord Yi Yun, what important matter do you have that you summoned us out for?"

Seeing Yin Yunze like this, the little witches boldly observed Yin Yunze and the little fox in her arms.

After all, they're all girls, and they all like fluffy little animals.

Not to mention, this is a little fox that is nominally of the same clan as Yin Yunze.

As the priestess of Yin Yunze, a Nine-Tailed Fox spirit, the little priestess naturally has a great fondness for foxes.

"It's nothing big, really. It's just to let you meet your new companions."

Yin Yunze didn't keep her in suspense and casually put Zhao Zixuan down on the ground. "Xuan'er, why don't you meet your colleague?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing Yin Yunze's words, Zhao Zixuan responded and took out the shrine maiden robe that Yin Yunze had given her, then slipped inside.

Transforming back into her fox-eared loli form, the little fox girl looked at the group of priestesses and bowed humbly, saying, "Zhao Zixuan, a Lady Qingnü, greets all the elder sisters!"

"Oh, what an adorable Little Fox Immortal!"

"Another fox spirit sister has arrived!"

"Hey, this fox fairy looks just like Lord Yi Yun!"

Upon hearing this, the young witches immediately began to discuss among themselves.

If Yin Yunze hadn't been there, they probably would have already taken advantage of them.

After all, Yin Yunze and the others dared not touch her, but this fox fairy sister of equal status deserved to be cherished. Not to mention, the little fox girl's appearance, and her resemblance to Yin Yunze, gave off a feeling of violating taboos.

"Xuan'er, you should call them younger sisters."

It's unclear whether Zhao Zixuan was deliberately acting young or simply being modest, feeling that since she joined the group later, she should be the younger one.

However, Yin Yunze corrected Zhao Zixuan's act of pretending to be young, saying, "Sun Qin, even you should call Xuan'er' elder sister'."

Yin Yunze spoke out of caution.

Although she appears to be the second youngest after Zhao Wan, Zhao Zixuan is undoubtedly the most capable fighter under Yin Yunze right now.

Yin Yunze's role for her was to be the last line of defense protecting everyone when Yin Yunze was too busy to attend to this world, not to be a little sister to be teased and played with by a group of young witches.

In front of Yin Yunze, the little fox girl can be a mount or a pet. That's because Yin Yunze is a god, and everything Zhao Zixuan has now is a gift from Yin Yunze.

But the little witches are just human, far inferior to Zhao Zixuan, so how could they be qualified to be above the little fox girl?

If the little fox girl were truly young, that would be one thing, but her actual age is so young that even Yin Yunze would have to call her "Grandma Fox."

Nothing may happen when you first arrive, but as time goes on, I'm afraid things might get awkward.

Establishing hierarchical systems based on seniority and social status sometimes exists to protect the vulnerable.

As the weaker party, the little witches had to bow down and be subservient, giving the little fox girl the most basic respect.

Although Sun Qin didn't know Yin Yunze's intentions, upon hearing Yin Yunze words, she still respectfully curtsied and said, "Little sister Sun Qin greets Sister Zixuan!"

Since Sun Qin had done so, Zhang Yufei, Qi Rongrong, and the Seven-Colored Little Witch also bowed and said, "Little sister, greetings to Sister Zixuan!"

The little fox girl was deeply moved by the actions of these priestesses.

With her constantly twitching ears and wildly wagging tail, the little fox girl was clearly very excited.

After all, this was something the little fox girl had never received in the Heavenly Wheel Sect —something called respect.
