Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor

Chapter 1220 - 47: Mutual Attraction

Elder Liu’s earlier blow already showed a murderous intent.

Within the Hu Capital, what does it matter if he kills ten or eight half-beasts?

As long as the Clan Leader and several of the Elder Council’s senior members aren’t present, no one can do anything to him.

But Elder Liu did not expect that at this critical moment, someone would still appear.

Moreover, this person was even more troublesome than Hu Qianqiu, the current Clan Leader of the Sky Fox Clan.

"Hehe, I heard that the Heavenly Fox Saintess selection ceremony is very lively this time, so I hurried over to join the fun. Now that I’ve seen it, it’s indeed worth the trip. But speaking of which, Elder Liu, I watched the contest just now clearly. It was indeed your granddaughter who made the first move, forcing this young lady to defend herself. If anyone broke the rules, it was your granddaughter," the elder appeared very amiable, but his words carried an undeniable authority.

The implication was that Yun Sheng was not at fault; the one at fault was Liu Xueyu, who had lost her right hand.

Even Elder Liu understood that this "elder" was clearly taking the side of Cangdu.

Elder Liu felt endless frustration.

He realized fully that his granddaughter Liu Xueyu was out of options.

The reason for this Heavenly Fox Saintess selection might be unknown to outsiders, but as a member of the Sky Fox Elder Council, Elder Liu knew very well.

This Heavenly Fox Saintess selection was, frankly, for the purpose of finding a wife for the grandson of this elder before him, who is the Young Clan Chief of the Jiuluan Tribe.

Unexpectedly, the Old Clan Chief personally came to Hu Capital to watch this Saintess selection ceremony.

The most damning part was that his granddaughter had made a lethal move right under his eyes.

No matter how he explains it, there’s no way out.

Thinking of this, Elder Liu felt completely disheartened.

At the same time, he harbored deep hatred for Yun Sheng and the people of Cangdu, who caused this situation.

He secretly thought to himself, "Cangdu, don’t be too complacent. Just wait until the formal start of the Heavenly Fox Saintess selection ceremony, then you’ll see!"

"Since your esteemed self can testify, there must be something wrong with Xueyu. I, the old man, hereby apologize on behalf of my granddaughter Xueyu," Elder Liu completely changed his attitude by three hundred and sixty degrees.

This left Cangdu, Fengdu, and everyone present dumbfounded.

When have they ever seen Elder Liu of the dignified Elder Council bow and apologize to someone?

As Elder Liu apologized, he harbored a grievance in his chest. After apologizing, he ordered to take Liu Xueyu and those from Fengdu away, leaving humiliated.

Thus, an intense competition came to an abrupt end.

Yun Sheng curiously observed the elder.

The elder’s temples were graying, and he seemed very aged, yet his eyes held a mix of kindness and wisdom, marking him as no ordinary person.

Even the Sky Fox Elder Council members showed him some deference; who exactly is this elder?

"Hehe, are you the Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintess of Cangdu? Are you a Dark Mage?" Earlier, when Elder Liu confronted Yun Sheng, the Jiuluan Clan Patriarch stepped forward.

The "Demon God Transformation" Yun Sheng used was so discreet that even the Jiuluan Clan Patriarch did not detect it, taking her simply for a gifted Dark Mage.

Unlike the Wuji Continent, which held prejudices against Dark Mages, in the Bahuang Continent, Dark Mages were respected like any other mage if they were powerful.

The Jiuluan Clan Patriarch, having observed Yun Sheng’s remarkable medical skill and impressive Dark Magic, held her in some esteem.

It’s only a pity that the pesky veil covered Yun Sheng’s face, leaving the Old Clan Chief regretful for not seeing her clearly.

This elder seemed to be so... nosey with his gaze?

"Yes, I am indeed from Cangdu. Thank you, elder, for your assistance just now," Yun Sheng felt slightly embarrassed under the Jiuluan Clan Patriarch’s gaze and could only cough lightly a few times.

"No need for thanks, no need for thanks. I have never liked those of pure blood bullying half-beasts. Rest assured, neither I nor my grandson discriminate against half-beasts." The Jiuluan Clan Patriarch didn’t mind in the slightest that Yun Sheng had the identity of a Sky Fox Half-Beast.

What about fox ears and a fox tail? They looked quite nice.

"What should I call you, elder?" Yun Sheng was confused; she was merely expressing gratitude, so what did it have to do with his grandson?

"You can just call me the Old Master. And young lady, what’s your name? How old are you? Where do you live? Do you have parents or siblings?" The Jiuluan Clan Patriarch’s questions came in quick succession without a pause.

Fortunately, Yun Sheng’s face was covered by a veil; otherwise, the Jiuluan Clan Patriarch would surely have noticed her awkward expression.

"Sir, it’s getting late, and you promised to attend the banquet," the two members of the Jiuluan clan couldn’t bear to watch. Their Old Clan Chief’s gaze was almost as if he had already regarded the veiled Sky Fox Half-Beast as a prospective granddaughter-in-law.

If the Young Clan Chief saw this, he might get so angry as to burst a blood vessel. The two managed to drag the nosy Jiuluan Clan Patriarch away with much effort.

"Young lady, you must strive hard now, ensure you reach the final of the Saintess selection. The old man has high hopes for you!" Before leaving, the Jiuluan Clan Patriarch didn’t forget to call back to Yun Sheng.

Only then did tranquility return to the inn.

Surveying the calamity-strewn inn, the innkeeper appeared heartbroken.

Hua Yanluo and Qin Yue had not yet recovered from the dramatic developments just now.

"The contest is over. According to the previous agreement, the two Sky Fox Inheritances," Yun Sheng approached Hua Yanluo.

Hua Yanluo was startled back to her senses, recalling her earlier promise: if Yun Sheng defeated Liu Xueyu, she would...

Hua Yanluo now truly regretted it to her core and wished she could slap herself.

Risking everything, including her only Sky Fox Inheritance, only to end up doing the wedding dress for others.

Liu Xueyu’s Sky Fox Inheritance and what Hua Yanluo remembered of the Sky Fox Inheritance at last had to go to Yun Sheng.

"Take it... take it then. But I don’t believe you can learn it all," Hua Yanluo said angrily, but having seen Yun Sheng’s power, she dared not oppose her, so she stomped her foot and glared at Yun Sheng.

According to the agreement, Yun Sheng ultimately secured the two Sky Fox Inheritances.

Qin Yue, who was equally reluctant, looked enviously at Yun Sheng, receiving the two boxes containing the Sky Fox Inheritances from the innkeeper’s hand.
