Chapter 770 - 862 Shocked across all veins
Although demons and the Human Race are adversaries.
However, whether it is the Demon-Taming Sect among the ten major Immortal Dao Sects or other first-class forces, they all accept demon beasts that have taken human form as disciples.
Not to mention during the time before Daoism was disbanded, which promoted teaching irrespective of race. Except for the evil Daoists, any others, regardless of race, could attend the Daoism exams, and if they passed, they would be accepted as disciples.
Similarly, in the Demon Race, there are demon beasts who accept humans as disciples or war servants.
This is not an uncommon thing.
Feng Yinglai naturally knew this was not strange, and said, "But what you accepted is a Qingqiu Spirit Fox, and a pureblooded Qingqiu Spirit Fox at that. Aren’t you afraid of retaliation from the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race?"
This is a concern for the major clans within the Demon Race.
"No need for Elder Feng to worry about that. If you don’t want to renege, hand over the Soul Essence Grass."
Zuoqiu Yiren didn’t want to waste words with Feng Yinglai.
She had exposed Xiao Jiu this time.
Because Chen Mo was destined to draw attention in this Daoist Alliance exam.
Furthermore, as Chen Mo has cultivated the Dragon Race’s divine techniques, he will likely use them during the exam, which will definitely attract investigations from the Dragon Race.
With so many lice, one isn’t afraid of itching. So what if it’s the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race?
Besides, the relationship between Chen Mo and Xiao Jiu couldn’t be kept secret for long.
During the exam, powerful figures from various sects will be watching.
The fact that Xiao Jiu is a Qingqiu Spirit Fox will be discovered sooner or later.
"You..." Feng Yinglai’s face turned livid, but it really wasn’t his business, and noticing the stares from both obvious and hidden observers, he couldn’t stay any longer. After getting the disciple who won the Soul Essence Grass at the auction to hand it over, he left with Lan Chengting.
All eyes gathered on Xiao Jiu all at once.
Suddenly, they seemed to realize something.
This Qingqiu Spirit Fox girl called Chen Mo her master.
Doesn’t that mean a dignified Qingqiu Spirit Fox is actually a human’s servant?
This truly shocked them.
Some even thought Chen Mo was really improving the face of the Human Race.
If the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race knew a spirit fox from their race became a human’s servant, they might be so angry their faces would turn green.
Some murmured to themselves, imagining how furious the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race would be when faced with a clansman being a human servant and what kind of revenge they would take on Chen Mo, or even the Shenxiao Sect...
...
Eight Trigrams City is neither too big nor too small.
The incident of the Zhengyi Sect losing face.
The matter of Xiao Jiu being a pureblooded Qingqiu Spirit Fox.
And Xiao Jiu calling Chen Mo her master.
Quickly spread in Eight Trigrams City.
This incident was even more hotly discussed than the rumor two days ago that "Chen Mo said he would trample the disciples of all branches under his feet."
Now, from disciples to elders, who didn’t know about the duo named Chen Mo and Xiao Jiu from the Shenxiao Sect?
The two of them completely became famous in the Daoist Alliance.
As an Outer Sect Steward of the Daoist Alliance, Chi Xuzi, who had just emerged from seclusion trying to break through the Nascent Soul Realm today.
Was stunned upon hearing the sensational news outside.
Chen Mo, Xiao Jiu...
They came from the Land of Punishment.
Zhao Fujin is his Dao Companion.
The scene of bringing them to Primordial Heaven the other day replayed in Chi Xuzi’s mind.
How long has it been?
Chi Xuzi couldn’t help but feel that things have really changed.
...
"Interesting, interesting, very interesting..."
Long Xiaoyao nearly clapped when he heard this news.
Daring to accept even a Qingqiu Spirit Fox as a servant.
Compared to this.
Killing his brother was nothing.
"Should I say you’re bold or ignorant? If the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race knew about this, surviving would be difficult for you."
Long Xiaoyao flashed a fierce grin.
Just as it happens, he also has several friends among the Demon Race.
"Chen Mo, even if the disciples of all branches don’t kill you, I don’t believe the Qingqiu Race will spare you..."
...
Han Zijing also grinned upon hearing this news.
Han Zijing originally thought Zuoqiu Yiren was already arrogant.
But compared to her disciple, Zuoqiu Yiren seems like nothing.
A Qingqiu Spirit Fox, huh.
That’s an existence on par with the ten great Immortal Dao Sects.
Some sects might not even be able to contend with the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race.
"Zuoqiu Yiren, you want your disciple to enter the Daoist Alliance and receive its protection, right? If that’s the case, I absolutely cannot let you succeed." Han Zijing muttered to himself, seeming to have guessed Zuoqiu Yiren’s intentions.
...
As the date for the Daoist Alliance exam approached, the flow of people in Eight Trigrams City grew increasingly intense, attracting more powerful figures from all over and elevating the already fearsome city’s popularity to a new high.
Besides disciples from various branches, the Daoist Alliance also invited elders from the other eight great Immortal Dao Sects to witness the event.
And these elders also wanted to see the strength of the new batch of Daoist Alliance disciples, bringing along their own disciples to observe and learn.
...
On the eve of the Daoist Alliance exam.
Chen Mo slowly opened his eyes, releasing a penetrating gleam that regarded everything as prey with his sharp glare.
The Dragon-Devouring Sparrow Spirit was successfully refined.
In the Soul-Stabilizing Bead, Qiao Yushi also successfully refined the Soul Essence Grass that Chen Mo brought, regaining her Divinity Transformation Realm strength, plus having various life-saving methods, which allowed her to slightly relax, though not for long once she realized Chen Mo had already refined the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow Spirit, feeling incredulous.
After all, when she refined it back then, it took more than three months with her father teaching beside her, but Chen Mo spent less than a week on his own without asking her for guidance.
Originally, she intended to act superior and wait for Chen Mo to ask so she could maintain a grandmaster demeanor, hoping he’d respect her more in the future.
But reality showed it was as if she wasn’t needed at all.
Later, as Chen Mo emerged from seclusion, Qiao Yushi learned that the Xiao Jiu calling Chen Mo ’master’ was a Qingqiu Spirit Fox, and her eyes widened in shock.
When she was refining the long-lost Dragon-Devouring Sparrow Spirit in Primordial Heaven, she was extremely cautious.
But Chen Mo just kept a Qingqiu Spirit Fox by his side, calling him ’master’.
If the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race knew, they’d flay him for sure.
So gutsy.
If she knew Xiao Jiu was the king fox of the Qingqiu Spirit Foxes, her soul might leap out in fright.
...
"Xiao Qingtian from the Shangqing Sect is rumored to be at the half-step Divinity Transformation Realm and has taken a fancy to your senior sister, you must be careful." In the room, Zuoqiu Yiren was briefing Chen Mo about people to be wary of in this exam.
Zuoqiu Yiren didn’t know why she brought Chen Mo to her room when she could have told him everything outside too.
Not only did she bring Chen Mo into the room, but before that, she had even taken a bath, seemingly not wanting Chen Mo to smell any wine odor on her.
She started to care about her image in front of Chen Mo.
