The little fox said without hesitation, “I’m not willing.”

She refused to leave Li Qingshan for ten years.

Li Qingshan didn’t reject the idea, calmly asking, “What’s the difference if she stays for ten years?”

“Her bloodline is too strong, and as her cultivation level increases, the concentration of her bloodline becomes even stronger. If she wants to transform through her own efforts, she’ll need to reach the Emperor realm and control her bloodline herself,” Lady Hu calmly replied.

The little fox trembled at the mention of the Emperor Realm.

Li Qingshan frowned. “So, staying here with you will solve the problem?”

“The Fox Race has a secret technique that can extract a portion of her concentrated bloodline, allowing her to gradually adapt. Her bloodline has regenerative capabilities, so there’s no need to worry about any adverse effects from extracting a small amount. As for the extracted bloodline, I’ll consider it as payment for this service, to be used on the younger generation of the Fox Race. You should know how precious even a small portion of the atavistic bloodline is for us, diluted as we are. It’s enough to cultivate a Nine-Tailed Fox,” Lady Hu explained frankly, with her own agenda in mind, wanting to leverage the little fox to bring a Nine-Tailed Fox to the Fox Race.

Li Qingshan carefully considered for a moment and said, “Are you sure this won’t affect the little fox?”

“Just a tiny bit of bloodline, it’s as harmless as drinking tea. She’ll rest for half a year, and she’ll fully recover. During this half year, we’ll gradually shape her form, and then repeat it annually. After about ten times, she’ll be able to control her bloodline on her own,” Lady Hu explained.

Li Qingshan looked at the little fox and asked, “Do you agree with this plan?”

The little fox was very conflicted. Agreeing meant being separated from Li Qingshan for ten years, but disagreeing meant she would have to reach the Emperor Realm to shape-shift.

After a difficult decision, the little fox weakly nodded, feeling deeply pained by the prospect of another separation.

“You must remember to visit me often,” the little fox pitifully said to Li Qingshan.

“Don’t worry, I will come to see you,” Li Qingshan replied gently and assuredly.

Lady Hu witnessed this scene and smiled with relief, saying, “Rest assured, I will definitely take good care of this little girl. Although she didn’t grow up in our Fox Race, she is still one of us. With such a powerful atavistic bloodline, we must pay close attention.”

Li Qingshan looked at Lady Hu and said sternly, “I’m entrusting the little fox to you. Let me be clear, if anything happens to her, the entire Fox Race will pay the price, without any room for negotiation. You should know my power.”

Lady Hu was inwardly shocked but nodded solemnly, “I understand.”

“Secondly, you mentioned using the little fox’s bloodline to cultivate a Nine-Tailed Fox, which is the Fox Lady behind you. Except for her, you are not allowed to pass on the little fox’s bloodline to anyone else. This is my bottom line,” Li Qingshan pointed at the Fox Lady, speaking coldly.

Lady Hu glanced at the Fox Lady and saw her looking at Li Qingshan with admiration. With a sigh in her heart, she nodded and promised, “Okay, I promise you.”

“Lastly, the origin of the little fox must not be disclosed. Let her shape-shift calmly. Also, I want to check various records of your Fox Race,” Li Qingshan made his final request.

“I agree to all of that,” Lady Hu replied decisively. She did this to ensure that the Fox Race would have one more Nine-Tailed Fox, even if it lacked inherited memories.

As for the original candidate for the Nine-Tailed Fox, it was her disciple, the Fox Lady.

Otherwise, she would have put in so much effort to help the little fox control her bloodline, only to benefit others.

“Immortal Emperor Li, you can rest assured. I promise to comply with all your requests, and nothing will go wrong,” Lady Hu said sincerely.

“Okay, then I’ll take the little fox away first. We’ll start tomorrow,” Li Qingshan turned and left the hall without looking back.

The Fox Lady’s gaze followed Li Qingshan.

Smack!

Lady Hu angrily slapped the Fox Lady’s buttocks, making a crisp sound that reverberated, causing the Fox Lady to blush and cover her hands in embarrassment, looking at her master in confusion.

“Now that he’s gone, don’t keep your eyes on him,” Lady Hu said sternly.

“I didn’t…” muttered the Fox Lady with a guilty conscience.

“The gap between you and him is too big,” Lady Hu sighed.

The Fox Lady didn’t respond but said earnestly, “Master, I’m not getting married.”

Lady Hu looked at the Fox Lady and said casually, “It’s up to you. I won’t force you. Originally, it was for the sake of the Nine-Tailed Fox. Now that there’s hope, let’s just forget about marriage.”

“But, girl, it’s difficult for you to catch up to him,” Lady Hu said.

“I don’t need to catch up. Just watching from afar is enough,” the Fox Lady said firmly.

“Sigh, why are you so much like me?” Lady Hu shook her head, feeling disappointed yet relieved.

“Master, were you also watching Zhenwu Emperor from afar back then?” the Fox Lady asked.

Smack!

Lady Hu gave another slap to the Fox Lady’s buttocks, snorted coldly, and walked out of the hall.
