Chapter 745: Chapter 741: The Downfall of the Princess Chapter 745: Chapter 741: The Downfall of the Princess The Ten Thousand Years Fox King ignored the Bull Demon King and flew towards Shen Luo.
“Friend Shen, thank you for your assistance just now. The Jade Fox Clan will forever rember your kindness,” Ten Thousand Years Fox King said with a bow
“Elder Fox King gives too much credit. I, who has limited abilities, could only drive back these demons thanks to the tily arrival of the Ping Tian Great Sage,” Shen Luo said modestly, nodding his head towards the Bull Demon King.
A ray of golden light flew from afar; it was the Golden Rope, which vanished into his sleeve after a flash.
The Bull Demon King stared at Shen Luo, giving him an up-and-down look, with a strange glint in his eyes.
The Ten Thousand Years Fox King responded with a cold hum, did not reply, and took Shen Luo flying towards the Cloud Brushing Cave.
Looking at their figures, the Bull Demon King’s face showed a hint of surprise.
The demon soldiers from the fox clan gathered around, the powerful mbers of the Fox Clan showing great respect for the Bull Demon King; they approached him, led by the Lady in Blue Robes and the Silver-Armored Youth, to express their gratitude.
“There’s no need for formalities, everyone. Jilei Mountain and I, the Great Strength Bull Demon King, are closely connected. I would absolutely not tolerate the Demon Clan’s rampant abuse here,” The Bull Demon King said solemnly.
Upon hearing these words, everyone from the Fox Clan was overjoyed and couldn’t help but cheer.
“With the Ping Tian Great Sage keeping watch here, there is nothing to fear no matter how many Demon Clan mbers co,” the Silver Armored Youth exclaid excitedly.
“Of course, by the way, who was that human cultivator just now? The Fox King traditionally does not have a high opinion of human cultivators, but he seems to make an exception for him.” The Bull Demon King asked the Silver Armored Youth.
“Are you referring to Daoist Shen? He is a visiting human cultivator who wishes to form an alliance with us at Jilei Mountain. My father has already accepted his proposal,” the Silver Armored Youth replied.
“Forming an alliance?” The Bull Demon King faltered, quietly repeating the Silver Armored Youth’s words.

Inside the Cloud Brushing Cave, Shen Luo and the Ten Thousand Year Fox King had returned to the hall again.
“Friend Shen, it seems you were familiar with the demon clan mbers who appeared just now? What exactly is their origin?” As soon as the Ten Thousand Year Fox King sat down, he asked imdiately.
“I don’t exactly know them. I happened to co across those demons on Black Wolf Mountain not long ago,” Shen Luo did not hide anything, and briefly narrated his encounters on Black Wolf Mountain.
However, he did not share with Ten Thousand Year Fox King the fact that the Heavenly Book had absorbed the black Qi around the Black Skeleton during their final confrontation. That was a secret.
“So, that’s how it is. I’ve heard of a blood sacrificial thod in the Demon Clan that can quickly increase their strength and transform their bodies into half-demons, it seems it really does exist,” said the Ten Thousand Years Fox King with a solemn expression.
“That kind of rapid self-healing ability is indeed troubleso. However, it is useless as long as we attack their heads or their Dantian,” Shen Luo explained.
“That’s an excellent idea, Friend Shen.” The Ten Thousand Years Fox King’s eyes lit up.
Shen Luo looked at the Ten Thousand Years Fox King, wanting to speak but withholding.
“You wish to et the Bull Demon King; well, Old Bull is right outside. You can see him whenever you want,” The Ten Thousand Year Fox King sighed and told Shen Luo.
“Thank you, Fox King.” Shen Luo looked delighted. He raised his fist to thank the Ten Thousand Year Fox King and stood up, ready to walk out.
“Please wait, Friend Shen,” the Ten Thousand Year Fox King suddenly called out to Shen Luo.
“Does the Fox King need anything?” Shen Luo stopped in his tracks.
The Ten Thousand Years Fox King took out a green jade box, opened it, and placed it on a nearby table. Inside the box lay a peach-shaped white jade spirit fruit. It exuded a refreshing aroma and surged with spiritual energy, clearly not an ordinary item.
“Fox King, what is this?” Shen Luo, seeing this, raised his eyebrows.
“This Jade Spirit Fruit is a unique spiritual object from Jilei Mountain, consumption of it can increase your cultivation and lifespan by 500 years. It’s also beneficial for human cultivators. Given that Master Shen has aided the Fox Clan twice, I have no way to reciprocate your kindness, hence this Jade Spirit Fruit is a small token of my gratitude.” The Ten-thousand-year Fox King handed over the jade box and said.
“This item is too precious, I can’t accept it. When I assisted the Fox Clan, it was definitely not for these Immortal Fruits. Considering the many mbers of the Jade Fox Clan who were seriously injured in the battle, Your Highness would be better off bestowing it upon them.” Shen Luo, looking at the Jade Spirit Fruit, was visibly moved, but still shook his head to refuse.
“Although this Immortal Fruit is precious, compared to the safety of my Fox Clan, it accounts for nothing. Our Demon Race has always repaid kindness. If you, friend Shen, insist on declining, it would tantamount to despising my Jade Fox Tribe.” The expression of the Ten-thousand-year Fox King turned a bit stern.
“If that’s the case, I’d be rude to refuse.” Seeing this, Shen Luo had no choice but to accept and then excused himself to leave.
Just after he stepped out of the Cloud Brushing Cave, the Bull Demon King approached him.
“Great Saint Ping Tian, I am Shen Luo. I’ve long heard of the Great Saint’s reputation and am fortunate enough to et you today.” Shen Luo hurriedly greeted.
“Friend Shen, you’re too polite. I already heard about your nurous instances of aiding the Jade Fox Tribe. I can’t thank you enough for that.” The Bull Demon King waved his hand, laughing boisterously.
“Great Sage, you flatter . Those Demon Clan mbers are common enemies of all beings in this world. Although I belong to the Human Race, I cannot stand by and watch them oppress the Demon Race.” Shen Luo said earnestly.
“Well said, friend Shen. With your broad mind, I’m glad to have made a friend like you. However, I still have other matters to discuss with the Fox King, I must bid you goodbye for now.” The Bull Demon King said with a respectful fist salute.
“Please, Great Sage.” Shen Luo nodded with a slightly surprised smile.
As the Bull Demon King took large strides towards the cave, Shen Luo watched his retreating figure, his gaze flickering.
“Elder Shen, you’ve had a tireso day battling multiple tis for our race. I’ve prepared a place for you to rest. If you have no other matters, let guide you there.” A graceful silhouette approached, it was Li Qiu, her face filled with reverence.
“Sure.” Shen Luo was indeed sowhat tired. Furthermore, it was uncertain when the Bull Demon King would reappear. It wasn’t appropriate to keep waiting at the cave entrance, so he didn’t refuse.
Li Qiu led Shen Luo towards the depths of Jilei Mountain and soon arrived at a secluded Cave Mansion.
The spiritual energy here was quite dense, and outside the Cave Mansion, a waterfall cascaded down, making the environnt very tranquil.
“How do you find this place? If you’re not satisfied, I can arrange a different Cave Mansion for you.” Li Qiu said carefully.
“Good, I’ll stay here.” Shen Luo was quite pleased with the place and nodded in accord.
“You should rest well, Elder Shen. I’ve arranged for soone to keep watch nearby. If there’s anything you need, just give the command.” Li Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, then, not wanting to disrupt Shen Luo any further, intended to excuse herself and leave.
“Daoist friend Li Qiu, hold on a mont.” Shen Luo suddenly called out to her, his gaze shifting.
“Brother Shen, is there anything else you need?” Li Qiu hurriedly turned around.
“No, not really. I just want to ask about the Great Strength Bull Demon King. It appears that he’s quite close to your Jade Fox Clan, but the Fox King seed to have a bad attitude towards him.” Shen Luo asked.
“The Great Strength Bull Demon King is a son-in-law of our Fox Clan. The Fox King’s eldest daughter, nad Princess Jade Face, was married to him as a concubine. However, a thousand years ago, because of the Bull Demon King, a powerful enemy was instigated and Princess Jade Face was killed. Hence, the Fox King has quite a hatred towards the Bull Demon King.” Li Qiu explained.
“Oh, with the prowess of the Great Sage Ping Tian, who dared to kill his wife?” Shen Luo recalled the words of the white-robed elder and others in the Heavenly Book Broken Land and asked with certainty.
“I’m not entirely sure, but it’s said to have been soone from the Buddhist Sect.” Li Qiu shook her head.
“Buddhist Sect, I see.” Shen Luo slowly nodded.
According to the words of the white-robed elder and the others, Princess Jade Face had been killed by Zhu Bajie, indeed an act committed by soone from that sect.
Seeing that Shen Luo had no further questions, Li Qiu excused herself and left.
Shen Luo sat down cross-legged in the Cave Mansion, pondered for a while, and then closed his eyes to circulate the Huangting Technique, recovering his mana.
