Chapter 22: Carpe Diem
After browsing the life story of the fox demon, Li Anran naturally gained more than just N live pornographic shows.
The fox demon's parents were born in Qingqiu, with profound cultural heritage and extraordinary background. They were one of the few ancient clans among the monsters that did not rely entirely on bloodline inheritance.
The fox demon was carefully raised by them since childhood and learned a variety of knowledge.
This includes alchemy and weapon refining, things that Li Anran had never come into contact with before.
Unfortunately, the fox demon is lively by nature and is not interested in any of these.
Her parents were also very doting and did not force her to study.
Li Anran only learned some basics.
But apart from that, when it comes to the heritage of the Qingqiu clan, the fox demon parents are much stricter.
Even if the fox demon didn't want to learn, she was forced to memorize them one by one.
And these have now become Li Anran's foundation.
Among them are the art of transformation, the art of five elements escape , the art of riding on clouds and mist, the art of tempering blood... and so on.
The core is two secret techniques that are similar in nature but completely opposite in nature.
The fox clan enters the Tao through emotion, and this is especially true for Qingqiu.
Both of these techniques are also related to emotions.
One is unswerving, until death.
As the name suggests, when practicing this technique, one is devoted to only one person, and the deeper the love, the faster the cultivation level will improve.
The other is Hehuan, which is the legendary dual cultivation method.
Among them are not only the techniques of collecting and replenishing energy to quickly improve one's cultivation, but also various means to charm people.
The latter can't even be called a means. After being improved and enhanced by the Qingqiu clan for generations, it has become close to the Tao.
Every word, every action, every gesture and even the look and expression can bring out one's charm to the maximum.
This is also the important reason why the fox demon can bewitch the heavenly soldiers and generals even though its magic power and soul are sealed.
Li Anran only browsed it once, and since he was not from the Qingqiu fox clan, he naturally could not do this.
However, he has also understood the trick and knows how to practice and deal with it.
However, there are many things in this world that you cannot deal with just because you know how to deal with them.
Not to mention, the fox demon's ninth-level True Immortal cultivation is much stronger than his first-level True Immortal cultivation!
All I can say is that the fox demon's natural charm is combined with Qingqiu's enchantment technique.
Even if he knew how to deal with it, he was not sure how to resist it.
And if he fails to stop it, he will be even more miserable than the previous group of heavenly soldiers and generals, and will completely become the fox demon's slave, willing to give everything for her.
"This is too risky. I can't do it alone! I still have to rely on Qiu to lead them!"
Having determined the tone of the matter, Li Anran began to think about solutions.
Soon, he had some ideas.
It would definitely not work for him to talk to Qiu Yin about the fox demon now. He couldn't explain the source of the information clearly, which would easily arouse suspicion.
However, if he had told Qiu Yin the news in time when the fox demon just started to attack, there would be no problem.
"In this case, I just need to determine the time when the fox demon will make its move, and that'll be it!"
But the next second.
Li Anran rejected this idea and realized that his thinking might be too simple.
"No! I know the difference between Fox Demon and Qiu Yin, and Yang Jian must know this too! If he wants Fox Demon to make things worse, he will definitely try to get Qiu Yin to leave Tianlao Palace first!"
Follow this line of thought.
Li Anran quickly found the most likely and best time for the fox demon to take action——
Court meeting the day after tomorrow!
There are three reasons.
First, Qiu Yin would leave the Tianlao Palace on that day and go to the Lingxiao Palace to attend the morning court, and it would be impossible for him to come back in a short time.
Second, it would be difficult for Wang Yi and the others to completely get rid of the influence of her charm in such a short period of time. By then, this would not only not be a hindrance to her, but would even be a help to her.
This is most likely the reason why the fox demon acted so high-profile and ostentatious as soon as it arrived at the Heavenly Prison, deliberately charming these heavenly soldiers and generals.
Third, during the morning court, all the famous civil and military officials in heaven would gather in the Lingxiao Palace.
As long as the fox demon makes a little noise, the news will be reported to Lingxiao Palace.
Small things can also become big things.
It would be natural for Yang Jian to cause trouble for Qiu Yin and Tianlao by being lax and negligent in his duties.
"It should be the day after tomorrow, no doubt about it! If she misses this opportunity, it will be hard for her to find such a good opportunity again!"
Li Anran was thinking about it when he suddenly felt a little alert in his heart and subconsciously dodged to the side.
But, it was still a step too slow.
Bang!
A dark shadow hit him hard on the shoulder.
Li Anran staggered two steps before he stood firm again.
Looking back.
The person who hit him was Wang Yi!
Wang Yi said: "General Li, please be more careful when you walk. Don't just think about how to flatter and frame your colleagues! Be careful that you may fall into a trap and die one day. That would be terrible!"
Many heavenly soldiers and generals around looked over, with expressions of gloating on their faces.
Li Anran noticed a hint of light pink in Wang Yi's eyes.
This is the trace left by the fox demon's charming power.
Li Anran suddenly had an idea and said deliberately, "General Wang is right . Life is short, so we should enjoy it while we can. I will go and talk to the fox demon."
"you!"
Wang Yi's sneer froze on his face instantly. He could no longer hold back his anger. His eyes were red as he roared, "How dare you!"
The heavenly soldiers and generals around were no exception.
They all stared with anger, completely losing the gloating expression they had just had.
Li Anran turned and walked towards the cell.
Demonstrate your attitude through practical actions.
"Boy, I'm talking to you! Stop right there! I won't let you disturb the fox fairy!"
Wang Yi suddenly became anxious and reached out to grab Li Anran back.
Li Anran seemed to be completely unaware and walked forward slowly.
Until Wang Yi's hand was about to fall on his shoulder.
Li Anran spoke.
"General Wang, this is already prison territory. Do you want to disobey the general's orders?"
Wang Yi's movements froze, and his palm stopped in mid-air, less than half a foot away from Li Anran.
However, this half foot seemed like an insurmountable barrier that he dared not cross.
Wang Yi's face turned pale and blue, and he wanted to continue attacking several times, but he forced himself to hold back.
In the end, all they could do was watch Li Anran’s back disappear.
"Boy, I'm telling you, you're just an outsider! You relied on a bit of luck and some complaints to win the general's recognition! Don't think you can just step on my head! If you dare to touch even a hair of the fox fairy, I will never let you go!"
…
Li Anran walked into the prison's torture chamber and found a place to sit down.
It was both expected and unexpected that Wang Yi would come to cause trouble for him.
Compared with other heavenly generals, Wang Yi's temper is more arrogant and xenophobic, and he has always been very hostile to Li Anran.
He could tolerate one of his own, like Wang Zhen, becoming a general by making great contributions, but he could not accept an outsider like Li Anran who stepped on his head to get to the top.
Especially today, Li Anran reported the matter of the fox demon to Qiu Yin, which was equivalent to stepping on him again and gaining the right to manage the prison.
This made Wang Yi intolerable.
Plus, the fox demon's enchanting power has the effect of amplifying emotions.
It is understandable that he would lose his temper at this time and cause trouble for Li Anran in front of all the heavenly soldiers and generals.
To be honest, Li Anran was a little surprised that Wang Yi was able to control himself after hearing Qiu Yin's order.
He had already made preparations to take action.
Going into the prison was just to give myself a more reasonable reason to take action.
As Wang Yi said, he is an outsider!
If you don't stand on the absolute moral high ground, even if you stand for reason, it may cause Qiu Yin's dissatisfaction.
But it’s okay this way!
He just didn't know who to use as bait, and Wang Yi just came to his door!
It also helped him make a choice!
Li Anran opened the fox demon's life story again, and while listening to the explanation of the fox demon's parents, he began to comprehend the art of charm.
