Chapter 67: Nine-Tailed Fox

"What?
Yang Xuan and his two companions were all surprised. Yang Xuan's expression was strange, and he instinctively turned his head to look at Qingyan, suspecting that he might have misheard something.
As a result, even more unbelievable things happened.
"Chirp!"
Three green birds were flying towards this side, and with a rolling word of green, they actually stopped in order, looking terrified, as if they had seen something terrible.
"I won't kill you this time."
The tone of Qingyan was cold and chilling, like the winter of the twelfth lunar month, making people shiver.
"Go back and tell your master that once my affairs here are settled, I will personally lead the troops to visit Yushan to make it clear what she really means."
"Get lost."
After speaking, Qingyan turned around and without hesitation, the three green birds flapped their wings and flew in the opposite direction of Tanggu with a desperate look, without looking back.
"This? This?"
Yang Xuan unconsciously opened his mouth wide enough to fit a duck egg in it.
Ling Chengfeng and Lu Xiaoqi turned their heads back and silently exchanged a glance, seeing a strong sense of shock in each other's eyes.
What's going on here? Who is Sister Qingyan?
"Hmph~"
After the departure of the Three Blue Birds, Qingyan looked up at Tang Valley. The battle between the Nine Phoenix and the Golden Crow, two divine birds, became increasingly intense and chaotic.
"Daring to lay hands on Jinwu."
Qingyan bit her lip and a charming arc formed at the corner of her mouth. Whispering, she said: "Interesting, how many years has it been since the world of mountains and seas had such a big disturbance? I want to see who is behind the scenes stirring things up and daring to bully me..."
"Let's go, I'll take you guys down first. Gold Crow is no match for Nine Phoenix, I need to lend it a hand."
As Qingyan spoke, she took Yang Xuan's hand and without any visible movement, a cloud suddenly lifted them up, the mist spreading under their feet.
Next, the soft auspicious clouds carried the four people back to the Tang Valley.
"Zifeng! Zixuan! Ziqi! Thank goodness, are you all okay?"
When Qingyan brought the three of them back to the shore, the first person to approach was the severely injured Junzi Han, who had fought with the Blue Bird earlier and had been at the forefront, getting the worst injuries.
Gentleman Han noticed Qingyan and gave a slight pause before bowing and asking, "May I ask who you are?"
"Aren't you hot?"
Ignoring Gentleman Han's question, Qingyan turned to Yang Xuan and smiled, then released his hand.
With a wave of her arm, a cloud of mist suddenly emerged, dispersing the scorching heat around the shore and bringing a refreshing coolness.
The people struggling to endure the burning heat relaxed and collapsed on the ground in exhaustion, relieved.
"Hoo~"
青颜又探过脑袋凑到杨玄面前，对着杨玄的面门，徐徐的吐出一口气息，气若幽兰，芬香扑鼻。
杨玄只感觉浑身一轻，所有的苦痛瞬间消散，荡然无存，被烫红的皮肤，也以肉眼可见的速度，恢复回常态。
Huh?
Suddenly, all of this caught Yang Xuan off guard and he had trouble wrapping his head around it.
He gazed at Qing Yan, dumbfounded, and only after a moment did he manage to say, "Thank you."
"Ha~ Wait for me here, I'll be back," Qing Yan said with a grin.
The young woman tiptoed and leapt into the air, but before leaving she still felt uneasy and turned back to remind them, "Don't run around recklessly, it will be dangerous later."
“...Hmm.”
Yang Xuan opened his mouth to speak, but he couldn't think of what to say, so he just made a soft "hm" as a response.
Qingyan finally left at ease and flew towards the direction where Jiufeng and Jinwu were in the midst of their battle.
"Ah!"
Yang Xuan finally realized what Qingyan was going to do and quickly shouted, "Be careful, Sister Qingyan!"
"Hmm~"
Far away, Qingyan responded to him with a voice.
"What? Qingyan?"
Upon hearing this name, JunZi Han was stunned and looked foolishly at Qingyan's departing figure, unable to speak for a long time.
"Sir, what's wrong?"
Ling Chengfeng, who was very curious about Qingyan's identity, couldn't help but ask, "Do you know who this sister is?"
"What? You still don't know?"
The gentleman looked at Yang Xuan and his companions in surprise and said, "You don't even know the name of the Qingqiu Kingdom's ruler?"
"Huh?"
Yang Xuan was stunned.
"Qingqiu Kingdom's ruler? Sister Qingyan is the queen of Qingqiu Kingdom?"
"It's no wonder she's the rumored Green Hill Country Lord. She truly is as beautiful as a country's flowers and scenery. How many heroes and brave men have wanted to catch a glimpse of her beauty in their lifetime, but I didn't expect to see her in person today. It can be considered a once in a lifetime opportunity."
The gentleman savored the previous scenery and smiled brightly, saying, "I must tell my wife when I go back. She definitely admires the Lord of Qingqiu the most."
"Qingqiu Country?"
Ling Chengfeng raised his eyebrows and said, "Qingqiu Country seems to be not far from the Junzi Country. By the way, I heard that there is a nine-tailed fox in Qingqiu Country…"
Yes.
Junzi Han nodded and continued, "That nine-tailed fox is the ruler of Qingqiu Country that you just saw. Only she, as a strong warrior, dares to intervene in the battle between the Nine Phoenix God and the Golden Crow at this time."
"Ah? Sister Qingyan is a nine-tailed fox!"
After hearing this, Lu Xiaoqi secretly marveled and nodded in sudden understanding, "No wonder sister is so beautiful."
"Nine-tailed Fox?"
Upon learning of Qingyan's true identity, Yang Xuande instinctively looked up at the sky.
In the sky, the Nine Phoenix and the Golden Crow are fighting and inseparable. At this moment, the sky above Tanggu is full of fireworks, divided into two colors of red and gold with the middle as the boundary.
Just as Junzi Han said, the young beauty stepped on auspicious clouds and flew up to the sky without hesitation to help Gold Crow and fight against the Nine Phoenixes.
Suddenly, nine fluffy and pure white fox tails emerged from behind her, like a peacock spreading its feathers, surrounding her.
Nine tails swayed gently, and suddenly the wind and clouds surged, and thunder and lightning flashed. The sky, originally full of fireworks and cloudless, suddenly saw a dark storm cloud gathering.
Boom!
A thunderous sound echoed through the sky, and countless purple thunderbolts erupted from the vortex at the center of the storm, sweeping towards Jiufeng under the control of Qingyan.
How can the world be unfair? I have Mr. Xian protecting me!
"Clang clang clang!"
Nine Phoenix One experienced a double increase in time pressure, and the arrival of the youth made it fall into a disadvantage, despite already having a stable advantage. It could only resist the joint attack from the youth and the Golden Crow.
After the most intense battle, the entire Tang Valley trembled. Several mountains were struck by lightning and even flattened to the ground.
As Nine Phoenix was about to be defeated by Qingyan and Jinwu.
"Clang!"
九凤的九个脑袋突然一起仰头长啸起来，接着，身上的九凤之炎掀起了一阵阵波浪般的起伏，开始发光发亮。
一股危险的气息从九凤身上传来，一股莫名的压抑感，沉闷的压在了汤谷每个人的心头上。
At this moment, Yang Xuan saw the youth in the sky suddenly turn around and leave the fight, falling down like a shooting star, with a serious expression walking towards Yang Xuan.
"What's wrong, Sister Qingyan..."
Yang Xuan was about to ask a question, but was interrupted by Qing Yan who said: "Leave here."
"Disaster is coming, and you cannot stop it."
Qing Yan stretched out her slender and delicate index finger, lightly touching Yang Xuan's forehead, and said seriously: "Protect yourself and wait for me to find you."
"Huh?"
Yang Xuan stared blankly, not knowing what to say.
Then he saw the nine furry fox tails behind Qingyan's back, lightly swiping and immediately causing a strong hurricane to sweep through, blowing all the people on the shore flying away.
"Wow!"
Under the tremendous wind force, Yang Xuan felt like a kite with a broken string, uncontrollably being carried away by the wind, drifting towards an unknown distance.
