Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 730 - 380: Nothing to Do Today, Just Tearing Down the House

Even if we don't talk about Liaozhai, talking to a thousand-year-old fox is quite an effort.

These foxes turn hostile as easily as drinking soup, one moment they're all serious with you, and the next they're spinning wild tales.

Just like now.

"Biting people? That's a bit much." Zhang Ze recognized the phrase, but couldn't understand it.

Would the Demon Venerable fight by biting people?

Yuqing leaned back a little, then nodded forcefully.

"It's absolutely true, although the bite mark is fake, she really did bite me."

Zhang Ze shook his head in disbelief.

Seeing Zhang Ze still unconvinced, Yuqing beckoned with her hand, signaling for all to gather around her.

However, Tongtong ignored her. At this moment, it was engaged in an intense battle over an old item, disputing control over the yolk, like two kids fighting over a toy.

Zhang Ze sighed, patted Tongtong's egg white, and spoke in a coaxing manner.

"This is someone else's yolk, just borrowing it for a while. Be sensible, don't make a fuss. I'll figure out the issue with your other yolk when we get back."

Tongtong finally sighed, returned the yolk to the old item, and, turning into a silent little being again, floated over to Yuqing's side.

Once Tongtong floated to Yuqing's side, Yuqing formed a finger technique, and the walls of the quiet room flipped and transformed into a ghostly blue array.

Placing Tongtong within, the array activated, mist rose in the room, and Yuqing's memories were extracted.

"The ancestral teachings say, when bullied, gather evidence, because it will be useful when you file a complaint.

"You taught this to my ancestors back then."

Yuqing finished speaking, and Zhang Ze suddenly found himself standing on the rooftop of a grand building.

Beneath his feet lay a majestic city of the Demon Race, with nothing but snow as far as the eye could see, not a trace of human presence.

The tea table remained, the old tea on it too, only the surrounding scenery had changed.

Zhang Ze reached out to touch the snow beside him and found it was fake, lacking any real sensation.

Similar to a holographic projection spell, probably.

"This is White Emperor City, young master, please look, that largest building is the White Emperor's residence." Yuqing pointed to the largest building in the east of the city.

Zhang Ze turned to look, his expression peculiar.

He held it in for a while but eventually couldn't help but speak.

"Who built that monstrosity."

It was an extraordinarily bizarre building, akin to having built an extra layer on top of Saint Sophia Cathedral with a CCTV headquarters flair, and finally, even a touch of national fashion style on that CCTV headquarters.

Yuqing, "The White Emperor."

Zhang Ze, "Does he... have a problem with his aesthetic?"

"Why would you say that, young master? This building was specially constructed based on your old drafts by Sister Wang and the White Emperor in memory of you. Are you not satisfied?"

Yuqing batted her pretty eyes, curious.

Zhang Ze sighed and turned his head away.

"I'm satisfied, I'm satisfied, let's not talk about this, how did Sister Wang bite you?"

"Just like this."

As soon as Yuqing finished speaking, the surrounding world changed. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

A beam of golden light shot up from the direction of the White Emperor's residence, piercing through the clouds.

As the golden light expanded, a gigantic Nine-tailed Demon Fox flew out from the pillar of light.

It seemed it had been hit and sent flying.

The Nine-tailed Demon Fox flew out several miles, plowing a deep trench through White Emperor City.

In the next instant, before the demon fox could rise, a White Wolf appeared out of nowhere in front of it, pressing a paw down on the demon fox's neck.

At the same time, arrays interlaced around the White Wolf, nine ice swords materialized and swiftly pierced into the nine fox tails.

The Nine-tailed Fox whimpered slightly and stopped moving.

After fully suppressing the Nine-tailed Fox, the giant White Wolf bit down.

As the light pillar from the White Emperor's place spread, the giant Nine-tailed Fox's silhouette vanished into the heavens and the earth.

Immediately after, the south shook, with the aurora spreading from above White Emperor City, covering the entire Extreme North Icefield...

The scene disappeared, and Zhang Ze returned to the quiet room.

That giant White Wolf and Nine-tailed Fox, Zhang Ze had seen them before, in the gift shop of the East Mushroom Valley amusement park, displayed at the top shelf as non-sellable items.

Those were the true forms of Yuqing and Sister Wang's Dharma Aspects.

Zhang Ze felt his throat a bit dry and couldn't help but take a sip of the old tea on the table.

After a long silence, Zhang Ze finally spoke.

"Are you sure this counts as a bite?"

Zhang Ze couldn't quite describe it, but he felt the fight they just had was deadly serious.

Yuqing, "Otherwise? Isn't this just a bite? Sister Wang didn't bite a second time."

"The ancestral teachings say, be truthful when filing complaints, don't fabricate facts.

"Besides, you taught this too."

"Indeed." Tongtong, who had sneakily taken the 'mouth' back, commented.

"Sister Wang, she..." Zhang Ze pointed to his head, meaning whether something systemic had gone wrong in Sister Wang's head, otherwise why would she randomly bite people.

"That big dog's head has always been somewhat troubled, but I don't think this time she was muddled.

"Moreover, the reason she bit me, I think, still lies with you." Yuqing said with a slight frown.

"Me?" Zhang Ze was puzzled.

"Let me think how to tell this to you, young master..."

After pondering for a moment, Yuqing brought up an old story.

"Do you remember, young master, at the beginning of last year, when you slew a Dragon at the Beast Taming Sect on Cang Mountain, and upon returning to the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion, you discussed a business deal with our Zhendong Trading Company."

Zhang Ze, "Hmm... was it that business deal about the Earth Vein Transmission?"

Yuqing, "Exactly."

Last year, after returning to the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion from Cang Mountain, Zhang Ze found upon arrival that the savings were mostly spent due to constructing a wonder, nearly plunging the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion into a financial crisis.
