As a Yang God Celestial Master expert, Qingqiu's attack speed was extremely fast.
After receiving the High Priest's order, her body shook and instantly appeared in front of me. Her hands turned into a pair of fox claws that glowed with a cold light.
It was different from the techniques that the Qingqiu Foxes had used before. Qingqiu's clan leader didn't seem to need to use any techniques at all. She only relied on brute force to kill me.
In actual fact, she did have such an ability. Before the fox claws reached me, I felt a cold aura lock my entire body. I tried to use it, but even the True Yuan in my body was completely suppressed. I couldn't use it at all. My body was locked on the spot, unable to move. I could only wait for death.
This was the Yang God Celestial Master's complete suppression on me. In front of absolute power, regardless of whether it was my dual witchcraft cultivation or my four-word Celestial Master seal, none of them were of any use.
I could only watch as her fox claws left afterimages as she clawed at my head.
However, it was a pity that with the fat man around, no matter how high her cultivation was, it was futile.
The fat man and I had researched the effects of the Monster Refining Gourd. It was hard to say if it was used against a human Yang God Celestial Master, but against a monster, even if their cultivation surpassed the Yang God Celestial Master, they wouldn't be able to escape from the Monster Refining Gourd.
The gourd was called the Monster Refining Gourd. It was the natural nemesis of all monsters. Although Qingqiu's clan leader's cultivation was high, it was nothing in front of the ancient divine weapon.
Just as her fox claws were about to claw at my head, a gust of wind surged from behind me. Qingqiu's clan leader's hand movements instantly stopped. Then, without any resistance, her body tumbled backwards with the gust of wind and instantly disappeared.
After her figure completely disappeared, I turned to look at the High Priest in the black robe.
Ever since I'd first met the High Priest in the black robe, his face hadn't revealed any expression. His eyes were empty and emotionless. However, at this moment, his face was filled with shock and his entire body was trembling. His gaze was fixed on the Monster Refining Gourd in the fat man's hand. He was obviously shocked.
At this moment, I didn't know how dangerous Yao Yao's situation was. I didn't care about anything else and grabbed his black robe. "Where is Yao Yao? Where is she?"
The black-robed High Priest ignored me. His body was still visibly trembling, but he suddenly turned around and knelt down in front of the Fox King statue. I couldn't tell what he was mumbling, but he seemed to be extremely agitated.
At first, I thought that he was using some kind of secret technique, so I cautiously took two steps back. However, I quickly discovered that there wasn't any energy fluctuation coming from his body. On the contrary, as he chanted, large drops of tears flowed out of his eyes. His old face didn't have any fear or anger, but was instead filled with excitement and agitation.
I couldn't hold back my impatience as I watched him kowtow in front of the statue. I grabbed his black robe and asked, "Where is Yaoyao? Tell me!
Otherwise, you can meet Chief Qingqiu in the Demon Purification Gourd! "
"Demon Purification Gourd!"
He didn't mention Yaoyao but muttered the Demon Purification Gourd. He looked even more excited as he muttered, "Demon Purification Gourd... It really is the Demon Purification Gourd... The Demon Purification Gourd has appeared, and the God's servant has descended... Fox King... Fox King!"
I didn't know what he was mumbling. I was already anxious, so I naturally didn't care about his nonsense. I roared at him again, "Where is Yaoyao?!"
This time, he seemed to be more clear-headed after hearing my roar. The maniacal smile on his face disappeared and was replaced with endless longing. He lowered his head as though he didn't dare to look at me. He pointed at the statue and whispered, "She's in the altar over there. The Fox King..."
Without waiting for him to finish, I let go of him and pushed him to the ground. As I ran towards the statue, I said to the fatty, "Fatty, subdue him!"
When I reached the statue, I lowered my head and scanned around. Soon after, I saw a shallow hole on the ground next to the statue's hairy right foot. There was an unknown liquid in the hole that was fuming white smoke. Inside the smoke, I saw a snow-white fox that wasn't even one meter long. It was soaking in that hole.
At first glance, I glanced at the little fox. When I turned my head and looked at her again, I suddenly remembered that Yaoyao was also from the Qingqiu Fox tribe. Could this little fox be her?
With that thought, I hastily jumped over. I didn't dare to touch the unknown liquid in the puddle. I used my True Yuan to wrap around the little fox's body and took her out of the liquid, bringing her in front of me.
The little fox was unconscious. Her snow-white fur had become sticky from being soaked in the water. I extended my hand and pressed a few times on her neck and chest. I could feel the warmth in her body and her beating heart. This proved that the little fox's life wasn't in danger for the time being.
However, I couldn't tell if it was Yaoyao from the fox's fur. Just as I was hesitating if I should continue searching, the fatty walked over. Seeing the little fox on the ground in front of me, he was shocked. He hastily asked, "What happened to Yaoyao?"
"This is Yaoyao?
You can recognize her? "I quickly asked the fatty.
The fatty nodded affirmatively. "I can sense her soul aura. This is Yaoyao."
After he confirmed it, I heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that Yaoyao was fine.
Fortunately, the fatty's Monster Refining Gourd was here. Otherwise, if I sent Yaoyao back to the Qingqiu tribe and killed her, I wouldn't know how to explain this to Yaoyao's mother.
After confirming her identity, I hastily sat down and extended my hand to press on the little fox's chest. I slowly sent my Dao energy and True Yuan into her body.
Since I wasn't sure of Yaoyao's current condition, I didn't dare to act rashly. I carefully searched for her meridians and sent a weak Dao energy and True Yuan into her meridians. I guided the monstrous energy in her body and slowly circulated it.
The Dao energy was gentle and could even fuse with the monstrous energy. No matter what caused Yaoyao's current condition, I just needed to guide the monstrous energy in her body to circulate a few times to help her recover. Her body's condition would naturally improve.
Since her cultivation was only at Glory of Knowledge, her body was currently weak. The monstrous energy in her meridians might not even be at the Dragon Seeking realm. In comparison, my Dao energy was too vast. I could only use a small portion to help her. I also had to be careful and slow to prevent harming her weak meridians.
After one circulation, the tip of my nose was covered in sweat. After a few more cycles, my entire body was drenched in sweat. I was even more tired than if I had fought a few battles on my own.
Fortunately, my efforts weren't in vain. After a few cycles, I retracted my Dao energy and True Yuan. I extended my hand to sense Yaoyao's body. Her breathing had completely returned to normal and her heartbeat was much stronger. It was obvious that her body had recovered. However, she was still unconscious and hadn't woken up yet.
I didn't forcefully wake her up. Instead, I found two praying mats that were used to kneel in front of the God's statue and put them together. I carefully placed the little fox on top of them so that she could rest.
After I was done, I turned around to take a look. Currently, there were only the two of us in the Fox King Palace's divine hall. At the entrance of the divine hall in the distance, there seemed to be quite a number of people from the Green Hill tribe gathered there. However, the strange thing was that it had been a long time since we had barged in, but none of them had come in.
Although I didn't understand the reason, it would have been troublesome for them to come in. It was good that they hadn't come in.
I found a praying mat and sat down. I asked the fatty, "Let the black-robed High Priest out. I'll ask him what's going on."
The fatty nodded and swung the Devil Refining Gourd in his hand. The black-robed High Priest's figure reappeared and sat down in front of us.
This old fox had entered the Devil Refining Gourd, but his expression didn't change at all. He was still excited and respectful. The moment he came out, he lifted his head to look at the fatty and me. Then, he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
His actions confused us. Although he was currently under my control, with his identity and cultivation, even if he was begging for mercy, he shouldn't be acting so shamelessly.
Moreover, from his expression, the respect and sincerity on his face didn't seem to be fake at all.
After stopping him from kowtowing, I asked, "What did you say just now?
Also, why are you kowtowing to the two of us? "
The black-robed High Priest kowtowed again. Then, he stared at the ground and replied respectfully, "'When the Devil Refining Gourd appears, the God's Servant descends.' This is an ancient teaching left behind by the ancestors of the Green Hill tribe. The Devil Refining Gourd refers to the Devil Refining Gourd. This means that when the Devil Refining Gourd reappears in the world, the Fox King's God's Servant will descend. The two of you have brought the Devil Refining Gourd to the Green Hill tribe. You must be the God's Messengers sent by the Fox King to convey the Fox King's message.
I had eyes but failed to recognize you. Please forgive me, God's Messenger! "
After saying that, he began to kowtow again.
