Chapter 293: Benefits The Third Party
“Can… Can I really do that?”
Hu Xian’er was in so disbelief. Although Hu i wasn’t an elite expert of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, she definitely had the potential to reach the Void Refinent realm in the future with her excellent talent.
Her future was countless tis brighter than that of the old butler who was also at the late stage of the Essence Soul realm.
Are they going to kill such an existence…just like that?
“Of course you can. You can kill anyone whose cultivation level is under the Void Refinent realm.”
After saying that, the Heavenly Diabolism master glanced at Chen Chen, her eyes full of ambiguous aning.
Chen Chen looked at the ceiling and seed to be admiring the structure of the room.
“I’ll do it for real then?” Hu Xian’er asked, still feeling apprehensive.
“Yes,” the Heavenly Diabolism master said.
…
A few monts later…
Hu i turned into a corpse. With a cultivation level of the late-stage Essence Soul realm, she was extrely difficult to kill. Even though Hu i wasn’t moving, it took Hu Xian’er, whose cultivation level was at the early-stage Essence Soul realm, a ton of effort to kill.
After killing her, Hu Xian’er could not help but tremble.
Although she had killed many people in the past, it was her first ti killing an expert of the sa clan whom she usually couldn’t defy. Hence, she was extrely nervous.
“Go back.”
After taking a glance at Hu i’s corpse, the Heavenly Diabolism master fed her an elixir before walking out of the room.
Chen Chen and Hu Xian’er then followed behind quietly.
Soon, the few of them returned to the courtyard where Hu Xian’er had been confined previously.
“Aren’t you going to kill the other one too?”
Chen Chen asked with a smile.
The Heavenly Diabolism Master glanced at Chen Chen without answering. However, through the black satin, Chen Chen could vaguely sense that the demoness was looking at him with a contemptuous gaze.
“Hmph! You’re just playing tricks.”
Chen Chen stopped asking and let the demoness do as she pleased.
…
About two hours passed.
The entire Heavenly Fox Mountain Range’s protective array suddenly lit up at maximum intensity and a furious voice filled the space at the sa ti.
“The Heavenly Fox Mountain Range is to be guarded strictly! No demons are allowed to enter or leave!”
As soon as the Heavenly Diabolism master heard that voice, she flew towards the top of the mountain without hesitation.
Chen Chen looked around and had already understood the gist of the situation. He then hurriedly ducked into the Little Carefree Immortal Palace.
Hu Xian’er looked at the top of the mountain, seemingly deep in thought.
Fifteen minutes later…
The array of the courtyard was suddenly opened and an old fox demon brought Hu Xian’er away with tears in her eyes.
“Xian’er! Hu i has been assassinated! The clan elder wants you to go up to the peak!”
“What? Heavenly Fox Mountain Range is a late-stage Essence Soul realm expert, and she’s in the Heavenly Fox Mountain Range. Who can kill her?”
Hu Xian’er was sohow astonished and shock was written all over her face. Chen Chen, who was watching her from the Little Carefree Immortal Palace, clucked his tongue in wonder.
The old fox demon shook his head and said, “I don’t know, now everyone suspects that Hu Qing’s underling is the culprit.”
Hu Xian’er was speechless.
Hu Qing was Hu i’s rival, who was also a late-stage Essence Soul realm Demon Emperor. Due to the fact that he opposed the Demon Courts, many of the powerhouses of the four major clans had co to back him up.
At this mont, Hu Xian’er obviously understood what the Demon Courts’ emissary’s intentions were.
…
Soon, Hu Xian’er reached the peak and headed to the council chamber.
At this mont, the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan had gathered more than twenty Demon Emperors in the council chamber, where Hu i’s corpse was placed in the center.
The Demon Emperors had extrely sullen expressions, and the atmosphere in the council chamber had beco incredibly somber.
The Heavenly Diabolism master stood at the left and pointed at Hu i’s corpse, her fingers trembling a little as if she was extrely infuriated.
“Very well, I didn’t expect the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan to have such a chaotic internal structure. Are you guys going to kill your fellow clansn, a powerhouse who has the potential to reach the Void Refinent realm in the future, all for the sake of the position of clan leader?!”
On the other side, Hu Qing’s face was incredibly broody and he hollered furiously, “I swear on the na of my ancestor that it wasn’t !”
The Heavenly Diabolism master did not say anything and instead, looked at the old fox standing in the middle of the council chamber.
This old fox was the clan elder of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan whose cultivation level was at the peak of the Essence Soul realm. Since the clan leader and the other experts left for the human territory, he had been in charge of guarding the Heavenly Fox Mountain Range.
Facing the gaze of the Heavenly Diabolism master, the old fox looked at another Nine-Tailed Fox Demon Emperor beside him.
Seeing this, the Demon Emperor said with a respectful tone, “I just checked it out, in the entire Heavenly Fox Mountain Range… only Demon Emperor Tun Shan of the Divine Dragon clan is missing.”
After saying that, the Demon Emperor looked at Hu Qing, his gaze was full of suspicion.
The Divine Dragon clan was one of the four major clans that opposed the Demon Court. Hence, technically speaking, the Demon Emperor Tun Shan was still standing on Hu Qing’s side.
Hearing this, Hu Qing laughed instead of losing her temper. “Demon Emperor Tun Shan’s cultivation level is only at the early-stage Essence Soul realm! How can he possibly kill Hu i, who’s at the late-stage Essence Soul realm? How ridiculous!”
Hearing this, the clan elder of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan walked towards Hu i quietly and scrutinized her before saying softly, “Hu i got poisoned and lost her mobility. She was then attacked nurous tis in her fatal spots by an early-stage Essence Soul realm cultivator before dying completely.”
After hearing those words, Chen Chen, who was in the Little Carefree Immortal Palace, looked at the Heavenly Diabolism master who was infuriated. He could not help but get the chills.
He initially thought that the Heavenly Diabolism master was a simple-minded and violent villain, but it seed that he was wrong.
‘This demoness is really ruthless, I have to keep my guard up against her in the future. Otherwise, I might get killed without even knowing why.’
“Impossible…this is impossible!”
Hu Qing’s face turned from gloomy to pale. To be honest, even he suspected that Demon Emperor Tun Shan was the culprit and had rely kept it from him.
The Heavenly Diabolism master looked at Hu Qing and sneered. “Did you think that as long as Hu i dies, Hu Qing will definitely beco the successor, regardless of who the culprit is?”
As soon as she said that, the clan elder of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan beca extrely sullen.
He understood Hu Qing’s character well and reckoned that he wouldn’t kill fellow clansn.
However, it was very likely to be the doing of the four major clans.
As long as they did it and hid it from Hu Qing, Hu Qing wouldn’t be implicated by them.
Once there was no longer any competition, Hu Qing would naturally beco the successor.
When Hu Qing becos the successor, he obviously wouldn’t hold the four major clans responsible.
In the end, Hu i would die without a clear explanation.
Even if he expelled everyone from the four clans in a fit of rage, he would still be close to them as long as he becos the clan leader.
Thinking about this, Chen Chen had a headache.
At this mont, the old butler ca over and said, “Clan Elder, it would be better to ask the Clan Master about this. After all, Miss Hu i is his daughter… Also, Miss Xian’er actually has the right to beco the successor. It’s just that she has a low cultivation level.”
The clan elder nodded and took out the communication token. Soon, he received a reply.
“Tell all the demons of the foreign clan to get lost! Hu Xian’er will beco the acting clan leader!”
Hu Qing’s face turned pale when he heard the reply.
His father, who had never liked making decisions, had now given an order. He was clearly infuriated.
‘Maybe, he has already attributed Hu i’s death to .’
Hu Qing’s heart was filled with an inexplicable bitterness. If Hu Xian’er didn’t exist, the four major clans’ strategy could indeed allow him to beco the successor to the clan master.
Yet, she existed… She was an unexpected variable.
…
Upon hearing the order, the clan elder glared at the Demon Emperors of the other clans and said furiously, “All of you, get lost! Tell those bastards of the Divine Dragon clan to send the skull of Demon Emperor Tun Shan here. Or else, don’t bla our clan for disregarding the bigger picture!”
“We…” The Demon Emperors of the four major clans were speechless. They felt that they were innocent too because the Divine Dragon clan had attacked without informing them.
“Get lost!”
The clan elder’s peak Essence Soul realm pressure emanated from his body and the Demon Emperors had no choice but to leave in exasperation.
No one in the hall had ever suspected the Heavenly Diabolism master.
After all, she, the emissary of the Demon Courts, had always supported Hu i.
When the demons were almost gone, the Heavenly Diabolism master glanced at Hu Xian’er coldly and sneered. “The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan is really declining. They actually let a rookie who’s only at the early Essence Soul realm beco the successor of the clan master.”
The clan elder’s face was flushed, and he said awkwardly, “The four major clans are so vile. The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan didn’t expect them to act in such an unbridled manner. Emissary, please forgive us…”
“The powerhouse that the Demon Courts have set their sights on got assassinated. I will report this matter to the Demon God personally. You don’t have to say anything else, goodbye.”
After saying that coldly, the Heavenly Diabolism master flew away from the council chamber. Right from the start, she had only glanced at Hu Xian’er once.
