332 May The Ancient God Sea Protect Us
Yuchi and Yue Hanjiang were here because Hu Yiyi had absent-mindedly dragged them along. Incidentally, Yuchi still had his fox ears and tail.
Of course, this was also because she had noticed that Hanjiang was a ninth-grade Dao realm cultivator. She was somewhat confused as to why a weak person like Yuchi was hanging around a powerful cultivator.
Still, such questions were deemed unimportant in the face of the major conundrum that revolved around the annihilation of the dragon-phoenix race.
…
The fox race clan leader was still pondering this matter.
The Saintess should have calmed down by now, right?
She might have been as shocked and confused as we were just now, but hopefully she’ll be able to tell us more details now.
As such, he sent for her.
Shortly after, Hu Yiyi recounted the situation in greater detail. However, the clan leader was still unable to glean any insights as to how this miracle had taken place.
Then, he suddenly recalled that Hu Yiyi had mentioned meeting an unfamiliar man. “Oh right, I remember you saying that there was a man and a girl at the scene?”
Hu Yiyi nodded.
“The man is just an ordinary person, but the girl is a ninth-grade Dao realm cultivator. They’re currently living in our territory. Incidentally, the man is a member of our fox race.”
The clan leader pondered for a moment before asking her a clarifying question.
“You said that you were standing on the surface of the sea, right?”
Hu Yiyi was slightly taken aback, but she quickly nodded.
“Yes, I was standing on the sea with the guards. There was a fishing boat behind a reef not far away. When we arrived, that unknown young man was talking to a member of the dragon-phoenix race.”
The clan leader then trembled unconsciously.
“You also mentioned that the man came over to you, right?”
“Yes, he did.”
After she finished speaking, she looked at the clan leader in realization, her eyes widening in shock.
If Yuchi was not a cultivator, then how had he walked on the surface of the sea over to her side?
The situation had been so tense back then that she had completely neglected this fact, but now it gave her goosebumps.
There was no way he was an ordinary person!
This person was hiding something!
The clan leader was lost in thought for a while.
“When that man from the dragon-phoenix race was speaking to him, was it with respect or disdain?”
This was very important.
If the man from the dragon-phoenix race had spoken to Yuchi with respect, it meant that Yuchi had been hiding his strength, but conversely, if he had spoken to Yuchi with disdain, then walking on water was probably some sort of trick or minor ability.
“At that time, if we had not arrived in time, that man from the dragon-phoenix race would have most certainly killed him.”
Hu Yiyi was speaking the truth.
From her perspective, this was exactly what had happened. Also, the arrogant and aggressive attitude of that man from the dragon-phoenix race was immediately obvious from a glance.
The clan leader understood.
“Alright, then it should have nothing to do with those two strangers. You can investigate them yourself. At most, they are hiding some small secrets. They should not be a threat to our race or territory.”
“Next, we should focus on you. We have to figure out if you have some kind of power that we can’t understand, or if the god of the Ancient God Sea helped you.”
Hu Yiyi heard this and nodded in confusion.
The clan leader stood up and was about to leave. At the same time, he said, “May the Ancient God Sea protect us all.”
“May the Ancient God Sea protect us all,” Hu Yiyi replied.
“You can go and look for them,” the clan leader said, “I’ll go to the Tiandu division to get some information and see if those two are fugitives.”
“Alright,” Hu Yiyi nodded her head solemnly.
