Chapter 1386: Chapter 213: What I Want Is Her Heart
Yun Sheng didnât care about being the Heavenly Fox Saintess.
She had zero interest in that saintess nonsense, even if the Sky Fox Tribe had become an Upper Beast Clan, she still felt the same.
Only that old woman Yu Shang would desperately want to be the saintess.
But Yun Sheng had to rescue Hu Ruolan, and she was also very worried about Lu Yunshuang and her fellow tribespeople.
However, old fox Hu Qianqiu probably wouldnât agree to her conditions so easily.
"Master, thereâs another issue, regarding the Hua Clan." Boss Peng Yu had been waiting for Yun Sheng to come out.
The Ba Snake Tribe lost their status as part of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan, Pengyu and the Azure Nether Wolf Tribe became Lower Beast Clans, and the Hua Clan became a Middle-level Beast Clan.
But Boss Peng Yu faced a problem: he was just an empty-titled clan leader, without tribespeople or a city under his command.
"Iâve already thought about this, Night Demon Queen, send your Night Charm Soldiers to Cangdu and the Youdu area immediately." Yun Sheng wrote a few letters and handed them to the Night Charm Queen.
"Boss Peng Yu, there are dozens of cities here. Early tomorrow morning, take these documents and notify the major beast clans." Yun Sheng calmly took out several documents stamped with the seals of the young clan chiefs of the major beast clans.
"Wasnât this back when we were in the tower..." Boss Peng Yu was dumbstruck, finally understanding Yun Shengâs earlier intentions.
No wonder the master didnât care about being the saintess of the Sky Fox Tribe; she had long planned to establish a new Beast Clan, equal to the Eight Desolate Beast Clan.
"Thereâs the people, and now thereâs the cities. From now on, the Bahuang Continent will have an additional Hua Clan." Yun Sheng declared solemnly.
On one side, Yun Sheng was plotting her grand plan, while on the other side, Ye Beiming in the Kirin Palace was full of emotions.
Yun Shengâs safe return brought Ye Beiming a joy of regaining what was lost.
He was determined: no matter what happens next time, he wonât leave Yun Sheng alone.
This feeling was scarier than death, and he didnât want to experience it again.
The scalding water reddened his skin and washed away the sweat and stench of the past days.
With a flick of the curtain, the sound of footsteps approached from behind.
"Who would have thought the Vice Clan Leader of the Black Qilin Tribe had a habit of peeping on men bathing?" Without turning back, Ye Beiming said coldly.
Dugu Xiu stood behind Ye Beiming.
Both were top figures of the era.
Yet, here they were, facing off in a small bathroom barely a dozen square feet.
"Iâm not interested in men; my interest is in Yun Sheng." As Dugu Xiu spoke, a splash sounded, and the warm water suddenly seemed to cool.
Ye Beiming was already dressed, standing just a step away from Dugu Xiu.
Their eyes locked, filled with murderous intent.
"Vice Clan Leader, sheâs my woman. Youâd better think twice before you target her." Ye Beiming showed no excess emotion on his face.
"Ye Beiming, youâre wrong. Sheâs not your woman yet, or perhaps, youâll never be able to truly make her your woman." Dugu Xiu tried to provoke Ye Beiming.
Yet, Ye Beiming didnât flare up. He stared coldly at Dugu Xiu.
"Dugu Xiu, you and I, arenât we just laughing at each otherâs fifty-step blunders?" Even with only half of the Black Qilin blood, Dugu Xiu couldnât touch Yun Sheng.
"Perhaps I was, but now Iâm different." Dugu Xiu laughed.
"What do you mean?" Ye Beiming asked sharply.
"Ye Beiming, would you like to know how to break the Ancient Forbidden Curse?" Dugu Xiu sneered.
Ye Beiming was slightly taken aback.
He had offended the High Priest that day and didnât learn the method to break the Ancient Forbidden from him.
"Do you remember Hu Linglong? The woman I arranged for you that night. Thanks to you, Iâve broken the Ancient Forbidden Curse on me. The Ancient Forbidden Curse only applies to the first Heavenly Fox woman. Maybe, you can learn from me." Dugu Xiuâs gaze flickered, staring at Ye Beiming.
Is this the method to break the Ancient Forbidden Curse?
What a ridiculous method this is.
Ye Beiming silently cursed the ancestors of the High Priestâs generations.
Yun Sheng once said, what she wanted was a lifetime partnership, and he was willing to give her everything, even letting go of past grudges.
But to break the Ancient Forbidden Curse, heâd have to find another Heavenly Fox woman, which meant betraying Yun Sheng.
Yet if he didnât do it, heâd never be able to unite with Yun Sheng.
Ye Beimingâs expression changed, Dugu Xiu saw it and felt a hint of schadenfreude.
"Itâs just a woman after all; men having multiple wives is age-old tradition. If you truly care for Yun Sheng, you should break the Ancient Forbidden Curse, or do you want her to end up like Hu Linglong, dead?" Dugu Xiu urged Ye Beiming.
Even he hesitated when he first learned the method to break the curse.
But thinking about how he could be with Yun Sheng without reservation after breaking the curse, he hesitated no more.
Even without Hu Linglong, heâd find a second or third Heavenly Fox woman to break the curse.
In Dugu Xiuâs eyes, all women other than Yun Sheng were the same.
"Dugu Xiu, even today, you donât understand that Iâm different from you; I wonât betray Yun Sheng." Ye Beiming considered for a moment and rejected Dugu Xiuâs suggestion.
"Ye Beiming, youâre putting on airs of virtue. You, a Regent King of Great Zhou, have never had a woman?" Dugu Xiu didnât expect Ye Beiming to reject.
"Yun Sheng, sheâll be my only woman in this life. Even if I canât have her body, having her heart is enough. Dugu Xiu, youâll never understand the principle of finding a soulmate to grow old with." Ye Beiming spoke and gave a slight smile, ignoring Dugu Xiu.
To find a soulmate and grow old together... What truly is a soulmate? Is this where he lost to Ye Beiming?
Dugu Xiu stood within the bathroom, surrounded by billowing steam.
"Ha, it seems not everyone can be as adaptable as the Vice Clan Leader. Yet even so, Hei Yao and Hei Linlin still want to pass the clan leadership of the Black Qilin Tribe to Ye Beiming." The High Priest descended from the roof like a phantom.
This High Priest seemed to be appearing too frequently recently, causing Dugu Xiu to be suspicious.
"You again? Although I agreed to cooperate with you, I wonât betray the Black Qilin Tribe." Dugu Xiu was irritated by Ye Beimingâs words, and seeing the High Priest in front made him even less friendly.
"Vice Clan Leader, donât misunderstand; I didnât want you to betray the Black Qilin Tribe. Instead, I want to make the Black Qilin Tribe stronger." The High Priestâs words made Dugu Xiu sneer.
"High Priest, do you think I am a child? The ambition of the Beast God Altar is well known. Excuse me, I have matters to attend to at home." Dugu Xiu said, then walked away.
"Vice Clan Leader, youâll soon come seeking me again." The High Priest called out from behind.
