Chapter 627: The Jade-Faced Immortal Fox Clan
Peerless Medicine God · 第627章 玉面仙狐一族
Yu Leng was still shaken, staring at Ye Yuan with a face full of shock.
Yu Shu, however, looked bewildered, her gaze toward Ye Yuan filled with gratitude.
She knew that Ye Yuan had just diverted his palm force; otherwise, she would now be a corpse.
“Sister Yu Leng, what did you just say? Dragon clan?” Yu Shu asked curiously.
From just now, Yu Leng had been in a state of shock. It wasn’t until Yu Shu asked that she came back to her senses.
It couldn’t be wrong—that strike from Ye Yuan just now was definitely the power of a true dragon!
But how could a mere human youth unleash the power of a true dragon?
The hierarchy among demon beasts was strict; the four divine beasts were the races at the top of the food chain.
In the presence of the dragon clan, low-level demon beasts dared not even lift their heads, even if their cultivation level was higher than that of the dragons.
Take Bai Guang, for example: wherever he went in the Boundless Forest, he almost never had to make a move, and all beasts submitted, all because of the divine beast bloodline within him!
Among demon beasts, the pressure of bloodline was sometimes even more effective than cultivation level.
“No… it can’t be wrong! I once entered the sacred grounds with the Great Elder and felt the dragon clan’s pressure—it was exactly the same as his just now! But… but he’s just a human youth; how could he be of the dragon clan?” Yu Leng had lost her composure, murmuring.
Yu Shu looked at Ye Yuan in surprise and asked, “Big brother, you… are you actually of the dragon clan? If you are of the dragon clan, then of course you are qualified to enter the Divine Prohibition Demon Domain.”
Ye Yuan had a favorable impression of Yu Shu; she wasn’t as cold and heartless as Yu Leng, which was why he had held back earlier.
Seeing Yu Shu ask, Ye Yuan said bluntly, “You could say I am of the dragon clan, or you could say I’m not. As for what I really am, it’s up to you to decide. But if you try to kill me, I won’t show any mercy!”
Among these three, Yu Leng was the undisputed leader; it was naturally up to her to decide how to handle matters.
After a long shock, Yu Leng finally came to her senses and said to Ye Yuan, “This… this brother, I cannot decide on your matter alone. I apologize for any offense just now; please don’t take it to heart. According to the rules of our Divine Prohibition Demon Domain, humans are absolutely forbidden to set foot here. Your entry here has already been noted by the clan elders. What to do next will have to wait for their decision. How about… little brother, you come back with us to the clan?”
Having seen Ye Yuan’s display of power, she knew she was far from his match. If he hadn’t held back just now, where would her life be now?
But since the clan elders were already aware of Ye Yuan’s entry into the Divine Prohibition Demon Domain, Yu Leng extended this invitation.
Ye Yuan was also quite interested in this so-called Divine Prohibition Demon Domain, so he nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go with you!”
…
The atmosphere along the way was very strange. Yu Leng was both wary and guarded toward Ye Yuan, her whole body tense as if facing a great enemy.
Ye Yuan naturally knew what she was thinking but didn’t mind.
Yu Shu, on the other hand, seemed full of curiosity about the outside world, constantly asking questions along the way.
Ye Yuan didn’t refuse and told Yu Shu about the world outside.
Yu Leng tried several times to interrupt their conversation but was stopped by Ye Yuan’s sharp glare.
Only upon entering the clan of Yu Leng and her two sisters did Ye Yuan learn what their true forms were.
As soon as he entered the clan, Ye Yuan was immediately surrounded by a large group of foxes.
Ye Yuan was not unfamiliar with this type of fox; they were called Jade-Faced Immortal Foxes!
“Sister Yu Leng, who is this man? He’s so handsome!”
“Sister Yu Leng, this man seems to be a human, right? According to the rules of our Divine Prohibition Demon Domain, aren’t we supposed to kill humans on sight? But such a handsome man—it would be a pity to kill him!”
“Sister Yu Leng, this man is so handsome. Why don’t you give him to me!”
These Jade-Faced Immortal Foxes had not yet taken human form, but they were mostly fourth-rank demon beasts, not far from transformation.
Seeing these Jade-Faced Immortal Foxes, Ye Yuan was also surprised.
Wasn’t the strength of the Jade-Faced Immortal Fox clan too formidable? A random group of little foxes were all at the late fourth-rank, just one step away from transformation.
Ye Yuan’s knowledge was extraordinary; he knew that these Jade-Faced Immortal Foxes were not old by the standards of the fox clan.
From this, it seemed that the strength of the Jade-Faced Immortal Fox clan might be greater than the entire Boundless Realm!
This made Ye Yuan curious about the so-called elders.
What kind of strength did these people possess?
“Hehe, it’s fine for all of you to like big brother, but come find him after you’ve transformed! You’re too tender; you can’t handle it!” Ye Yuan said with a grin in common beast speech.
At these words, everyone, including Yu Leng and Yu Shu, was stunned.
These fox demons had only been joking with Yu Leng because Ye Yuan was handsome, never expecting him to understand.
Who would have thought that Ye Yuan not only understood what they said but also replied in common beast speech!
The chattering crowd around Ye Yuan instantly fell silent.
Some of the foxes even blushed, clearly very shy.
“You… you even know common beast speech!” Yu Leng said in astonishment.
“Just common beast speech, haha. I also know that you are the Jade-Faced Immortal Fox clan!” Ye Yuan said cheerfully.
“…” Yu Leng was completely speechless.
This young man, aside from emitting the aura of a human, seemed no different from a demon beast!
The fox clan had many branches, and the Jade-Faced Immortal Fox was just one of them.
Ye Yuan could accurately name their clan, showing that he was very knowledgeable about demon beasts!
Who exactly was this young man?
Ye Yuan naturally didn’t care about Yu Leng’s speculations; he was surveying the village.
It was a very lively village, where foxes and “humans” lived together.
What surprised Ye Yuan was that there were quite a few humans in this village!
That is, the Jade-Faced Immortal Fox clan had many fifth-rank existences!
What was going on?
How could such a terrifying force exist in a place like the Boundless Realm?
If this village were placed in the Boundless Realm, it could almost sweep through the entire Boundless Realm, even more cleanly than the Gale Realm!
If these peripheral villagers had such considerable strength, what kind of strength would those so-called elders have?
Ye Yuan became more and more curious about this Divine Prohibition Demon Domain!
Led by Yu Leng, Ye Yuan crossed most of the village and arrived at a place that looked like an ancestral hall.
“This is where the council of elders meets. I know you are very strong, but once you enter here, whether you live or die is up to you!” Before entering, Yu Leng suddenly said.
