129: Chapter 129 The Little Girl in the White Dress?
Once these words were spoken, the hall fell silent instantly.
Everyone widened their eyes, faces filled with disbelief.
Some among them had just been secretly guessing the identity of this young Human Race Cultivator.
Some guessed he was an envoy sent by the higher-ups of the Human Race, but how could an envoy only have Early Stage Core Formation cultivation?
Some guessed he was a Disciple of some great expert, but this cultivation was too low.
Now, Nangong Xiyue had said with her own lips that this young Human Race man in green Daoist robes had saved their Emperor!
How could they not be shocked?
They were all Demon Kings who had lived for hundreds or thousands of years; did they not know how terrifying the Taiyin Cold Poison of the Taiyin Jade Rabbit Clan was?
That cold poison was known as one of the top ten cold poisons; if one were afflicted without an object of extreme yang to neutralize it, death was certain.
What method had this Human Race man used to purge the poison from the Emperor?
And he had even helped the Emperor stabilize her Foundation, assisting her in completely stabilizing her cultivation?
This was simply too inconceivable!!!
Some clan members secretly speculated: Could it be that this Human Race man had deliberately hidden his cultivation?
Was he actually a Soul Transformation Stage expert who had saved the Emperor for some reason?
But in front of Nangong Xiyue, they dared not discuss it, nor did they dare to communicate via voice transmission.
They could only keep their doubts buried in their hearts.
Clan Leader had just been completely immersed in the joy of his daughter successfully achieving a Breakthrough to the fifth tier and returning safely.
Although he had noticed Ye Xiaoyao, he hadn't paid him any mind, assuming he was just a visitor.
At this moment, hearing his daughter's words, his aged face also revealed a look of shock.
His cloudy yet still sharp eyes stared fixedly at Ye Xiaoyao, looking him up and down, attempting to see through the young man.
But no matter how he probed, he could only see that Ye Xiaoyao had Early Stage Core Formation cultivation.
He had doubts in his heart, but he trusted that his daughter would not speak nonsense.
Clan Leader quickly put away his shock, his face piling up with a smile, and he bowed towards Ye Xiaoyao:
"Haha, Young Master Ye, this old man is Clan Leader. Many thanks, Young Master, for saving Xiyue!"
"Great kindness is beyond words. From now on, Young Master is an honored guest of our clan. If you have any needs, just speak, and our clan will surely assist with all our might!"
Ye Xiaoyao quickly waved his hand, speaking in a humble tone:
"Senior Clan Leader is too polite! This one just happened to encounter Fairy Xiyue and offered a helping hand; it is not worthy of being called a great kindness. Senior need not be so polite."
Everyone heard Ye Xiaoyao actually calling their Emperor "Fairy Xiyue" and was again stunned into speechlessness.
Could this young Human Race Cultivator really be some peerless powerhouse?
Otherwise, how would he dare to address the Emperor Lord like that?
Moreover, he was calm and composed in front of the Clan Chief as well, without a shred of fear, as if his cultivation were higher than Clan Leader's.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but gasp, and looks of respect appeared on their faces unconsciously.
Looking at Ye Xiaoyao again, their eyes no longer held the previous scrutiny and disrespect, replaced instead by awe.
Ye Xiaoyao smiled inwardly.
The reason he was so calm was entirely because of Nangong Xiyue's attitude towards him earlier.
He knew that Nangong Xiyue felt immense gratitude towards him; with her backing him, even if the Clan Chief and other clan members were displeased, they wouldn't dare do anything to him.
Sure enough, this tactic worked.
Nangong Xiyue took in the reactions of her clansmen without offering further explanation.
She turned to Ye Xiaoyao, saying gently:
"Young Master, I still have matters to discuss with my clansmen. Let me have someone take you to your quarters to rest, is that alright?"
Ye Xiaoyao nodded: "In that case, I will trouble Fairy Xiyue."
He naturally knew how to be tactful.
Next, Nangong Xiyue should be taking people to deal with the Taiyin Jade Rabbit Clan.
After all, having almost been killed, this grudge could not go unavenged.
Clan Leader looked towards the Elder seats on the side and called out a beautiful woman in a white dress.
The beautiful woman was about thirty years old, still full of charm, and was a Fourth Tier Initial Stage Great Demon King.
"You, take Young Master Ye to the VIP suite to rest."
Clan Leader instructed.
The beautiful woman bowed slightly, then gestured for Ye Xiaoyao to follow:
"Young Master Ye, please come with me."
Ye Xiaoyao followed her out of the Nine-Tailed White Fox Palace.
Behind him, the doors of the great hall closed slowly.
He knew that what followed was the internal meeting of the Nine-Tailed White Fox Clan.
Ye Xiaoyao followed behind the beautiful woman, passing through corridor after corridor, walking towards the depths of the Holy Land.
He was already impatient in his heart.
The Spiritual Qi here was so dense, several times better than any place he had Cultivated before.
Once he reached his quarters, he must Cultivate well and strive for an early Breakthrough.
The beautiful woman walked in front, saying nothing.
She was full of wariness regarding Ye Xiaoyao's identity in her heart.
To be personally introduced by the Emperor and to be able to address her by name, this young man's background was definitely not simple.
She dared not ask more, only leading the way, her face even carrying a hint of fawning and flattery.
Seeing this, Ye Xiaoyao smiled inwardly.
He, a mere Early Stage Core Formation Cultivator, was actually causing a Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse to be so respectful.
It seems having a backer is truly good!
A moment later, the two arrived at a courtyard.
The courtyard was not large, but it was exquisite and elegant, planted with a few spirit bamboo and a small flower bed.
In the center was a small two-story building, carved with beams and painted pillars, quite elegant.
The beautiful woman stopped and turned, taking a Jade Slip from her bosom, handing it to Ye Xiaoyao respectfully with both hands, her face full of smiles:
"Young Master Ye, this is the guest room prepared for you.
"I hope Young Master will not mind. If you have any instructions, just call me, and this humble one will be on standby at any time."
Ye Xiaoyao took the Jade Slip, knowing this was the way to contact her.
He nodded: "Mm, I know. You may go down first; I will call you if there is anything."
The beautiful woman bowed slightly, then turned and left.
Ye Xiaoyao walked into the courtyard and wandered around.
The small building was fully equipped, with a cultivation room, bedroom, and living room all present; the bed was covered with soft animal skin, and fresh spirit fruits were placed on the table.
He sighed: "As expected of a top Yao Race clan, the way they treat guests is truly different!"
Closing the door, he sat cross-legged on the bed and began to Cultivate.
There are no years in Cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, over ten days passed.
During this period, Ye Xiaoyao did not step out, remaining immersed in Cultivation.
The Spiritual Qi here was truly too dense; the speed of Cultivation was several times faster than in the outside world.
He dared not waste a single second.
In the future, he had to deal with the Ji Family's revenge and participate in the Central Plains Prodigy Tournament; the higher his cultivation, the better.
Over ten days later, his cultivation finally reached the Peak of Early Stage Core Formation.
At the same time, the eighth revolution of the Nine Revolutions Hegemon Body Art had reached the realm of Perfection, and he began to impact the ninth revolution.
His Physical Body strength surged again, with astonishing power in every move.
What surprised him most was the Great Evolution Spirit Refining Art.
This ancient Divine Sense Cultivation Technique was truly extraordinary; in just over ten days, he had cultivated it to the realm of Minor Achievement.
His Divine Sense was several times stronger than before, his range of perception expanded, and it was much sharper.
This day, while he was meditating, he suddenly heard a call from outside the room.
"Young Master, it is me, Xiyue. Do you have time now?"
Ye Xiaoyao opened his eyes, a glimmer of joy flashing in them.
He quickly put on his boots, stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.
Nangong Xiyue stood outside the door, still wearing that simple white dress, beautiful beyond words.
She wore a smile on her face, but Ye Xiaoyao noticed that there was a trace of triumph in that smile, and a trace of satisfaction after revenge.
And in her hand, she was carrying a person.
To be precise, a young girl.
Before Ye Xiaoyao could clearly see the young girl's appearance, Nangong Xiyue loosened her hand and threw the person towards Ye Xiaoyao's feet.
"Ah—!!"
The young girl screamed and fell to the ground with a thud.
Ye Xiaoyao looked down and saw a young girl wearing a white ru-skirt.
In the words of his past life on Blue Star, she should be called a loli.
She looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, petite in stature, with long silver-white hair scattered on the ground, and skin so fair it was almost transparent.
At this moment, she was lying on the ground, supporting herself with her hands, trembling all over.
The young girl raised her head and glanced at Ye Xiaoyao.
Those big, watery eyes were filled with confusion and surprise, and then she turned to look at Nangong Xiyue.
When she saw Nangong Xiyue, her eyes instantly became filled with extreme fear, and she curled up into a ball, shivering.
Ye Xiaoyao was stunned, and turned to ask Nangong Xiyue:
"Fairy Xiyue, who is this young girl?"
Nangong Xiyue smiled, her smile carrying a hint of triumph, completely the posture of a victor.
She glanced at the young girl on the ground and replied with a tone of mockery:
"She is the Patriarch of the Taiyin Jade Rabbit Clan."
Ye Xiaoyao's eyes widened, and his mouth opened slightly.
Patriarch of the Taiyin Jade Rabbit Clan?
White-skirted loli???
That Fourth Tier Late Stage Peak Great Demon King who had used Taiyin Cold Poison and almost killed Nangong Xiyue?
Just this?
