With these words, the fox clan chief's expression became complicated. The other foxes exchanged glances, not quite understanding her meaning.
Jin Bao'er continued,
"I heard that there is an elder in the fox clan who is knowledgeable and experienced, so I have come to inquire about something! I happened to see the fox clan being bullied, and it was a moment of impulse! If the clan chief feels I am wrong, then consider me as if I never spoke."
The fox clan chief's mouth twitched. Was this wrong? This was too right, but he couldn't watch his fox descendants die! If he could drive away these tigers, he would certainly be willing!
But eight Heavenly Dao Emperors against eight Heavenly Dao Emperors...
If they fought, how many of his fox clan would die?
Seeing his pale and troubled expression, Jin Bao'er naturally understood this. She smiled.
"I see the tiger clan is determined, and the fox clan is so hesitant. How about this... you fight it out! To show my sincerity in seeking answers, I can protect all the fox clan disciples and let you all fight to your heart's content! The victor takes all, whoever wins, we listen to them! How about it?"
This proposal... at first glance, it seemed quite fair! But...
Hu Qiu's face darkened. He wasn't here to fight today! A real fight would inevitably lead to injuries, and there were so few Heavenly Dao Emperor level beasts. If they suffered losses, his clan leader... he wouldn't know how to explain!
Damn it! Where did all these meddling humans come from?
The fox clan chief's expression tensed, his gaze sweeping over the Heavenly Dao Emperors opposite him, whose expressions were complex, contemplating their chances in a fight...
It seemed like they were evenly matched. But it was still better than being coerced and constantly bullied by the tiger clan! At this moment, he had no doubt that Jin Bao'er could protect the fox clan disciples! After all, her casual wave that dispersed the Heavenly Dao Emperor's pressure earlier was quite shocking!
And... Jin Bao'er's name seemed to be the person the elder mentioned! A person with overwhelming destiny!
In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere suddenly became bizarre... The previously tense parties suddenly fell silent.
Jin Bao'er dared to reveal herself and speak so directly because she had confidence. As long as the fox clan chief wasn't senile, he would surely agree with her.
Suddenly, she looked at the fox clan chief.
"I saw the barrier when I arrived just now. It's probably difficult for ordinary people to break through it. You also need to find the exact location of the entrance, right?"
This sudden question made everyone's faces stiffen! They really hadn't considered this problem! After all, the tiger clan had come quite a few times recently, and they hadn't been able to get in on several occasions!
The fox clan chief's reaction was an immediate darkening of his face! He had lived for thousands of years, and he wasn't just getting old! This clearly indicated a mole!
Upon hearing this, Hu Qiu's gaze fell on Jin Bao'er, his eyes darkening, a flicker of killing intent flashing through them... After another assessment of the pros and cons, he snorted coldly!
"Fine! My tiger clan is not unreasonable. Since the fox clan chief is unwilling, I will reply to our clan leader completely intact!"
Then, he led the few behind him and swaggered away...
The fox clan chief was somewhat stunned. He never expected Hu Qiu to leave after just a few words! Hu Qiu had been so resolute before, even more righteous than him, so why did he suddenly leave?
Jin Bao'er understood clearly. The main reason was the fox clan chief's firm attitude just now, his unyielding stance that was deeply ingrained. If it weren't for the sake of the little foxes, they would have fought on the spot!
When she said that she would protect the little foxes, Hu Qiu, not knowing her true strength, felt that they wouldn't have an advantage if they really fought, and thus decided to leave.
To put it bluntly, the entire beast race wasn't just the fox clan. There were other clans too! Like the wolf clan, the bear clan...
The fox clan chief quickly regained his senses. Remembering Jin Bao'er's mention of a spy, he immediately ordered the people behind him to close the entrance of the barrier! Then he thanked Jin Bao'er, his tone now filled with gratitude.
Jin Bao'er shook her head. She had something to ask for, and she hadn't paid much. The fox clan chief would have realized what she said sooner or later, but he was flustered by the sudden threat.
"That barrier looks very powerful. Someone must have deliberately opened it to let them in!"
The fox clan chief's expression tensed, he nodded solemnly, and turned to look at all the fox clan beasts present! His old yet wise gaze swept over everyone.
Although the beast race lived for a long time, they did not interfere in worldly affairs, and few were truly cunning. Under this imposing sweep of his gaze, the clue was quickly found.
Jin Bao'er was unconcerned about these matters. After waiting for a while and seeing the fox clan chief resolve the issue, she spoke.
"To be frank, I also have something to ask! May I ask where the elder who knows everything is?"
The fox clan chief nodded, his expression tinged with a bit of sorrow, and then looked at the person beside him.
"Go and invite Elder Hu Yu!"
A portion of the fox clan, possessing the bloodline of ancient divine beasts, had awakened their bloodline power. Hu Yu had awakened some abilities to understand the heavens and the earth, which bore some resemblance to the Buddhist disciples Jin Bao'er knew. However, this elder of the fox clan saw more clearly and knew more miscellaneous things.
The fox clan's territory was vast, it could be called a small world! What she saw today was only a part of it, and many fox clans were still in seclusion.
As soon as the fox clan chief finished speaking, a soft, seductive murmur came from a distance.
"Here I am~"
As she spoke, a plump and sexy mature woman in a red dress sashayed over, her curvy waist highlighted. Her slightly curly red hair made her exceptionally eye-catching! A pointed chin, a high nose, and narrow, phoenix-like eyes were extremely alluring!
Jin Bao'er instinctively blinked, having to admit that the woman before her was an unparalleled beauty!
Even some foxes around couldn't control their dazed gazes. Some beasts in the Heavenly Dao King realm couldn't help but cast fervent glances at the fox clan, their eyes gradually burning with desire...
It was only when the fox clan chief gave them a stern look that they suddenly snapped back to their senses!
Hu Yu saw Jin Bao'er's expression slightly change before quickly returning to normal. A hint of admiration flashed in her eyes! Although her cultivation was not impressive, her charm techniques were of a high level...
To be able to regain a normal expression so quickly meant she had at least a firm will and a clear mind.
"Is the immortal maiden Jin Bao'er? Hehe, you truly are a stunning beauty! I'm almost ashamed of myself~"
As she spoke, she covered her mouth and giggled "hehe"! Yet, surprisingly, she wasn't annoying. It was precisely because of her figure and beauty that even women couldn't help but glance at her with envy.
Jin Bao'er's expression remained unchanged. Seeing that Hu Yu knew her name immediately without surprise, she slightly lowered her gaze and smiled.
"Elder, you probably calculated that I would come, didn't you?"
It was also that she had calculated that the fox clan's crisis today would pass without incident and without casualties, which was why she hadn't appeared until now. Judging by her expression just now, Jin Bao'er didn't think she was a heartless person.
