Hu Yifei looked at the distressed Yu Mo, knowing there was nothing she could do but rely on herself.

She herself didn't control her abilities well and burned herself, and she hasn't recovered yet. Besides, Yu Mo only affected others and didn't harm herself. As long as she doesn't go out, she'll be fine.

Thinking of this, Hu Yifei ignored Yu Mo's distress and instead looked at the tail behind Yu Mo, a hint of curiosity and cunning flashing in her eyes.

Hu Yifei pretended to comfort Yu Mo, took two steps forward and quickly grabbed Yu Mo's tail. The fluffy feel made Hu Yifei addicted, and she pinched it a couple of times without getting enough.

"Ah... Yifei."

Yu Mo never expected that her best friend would actually lay a hand on her, caught off guard by Hu Yifei's sudden attack.

She lost interest in playing pranks, so she playfully pushed Hu Yifei away, curled her tail into a ball, and looked at Hu Yifei with a mixture of anger and wariness.

"I was just testing it out, and it feels pretty good. By the way, what part of your body does this tail correspond to?"

Hu Yifei looked at the shy Yu Mo and teased her again, but she was really curious about what part of her body this suddenly appeared.

When Yu Mo heard Hu Yifei's question, two blushes appeared on her face. She glared at Hu Yifei angrily, then turned her head away and ignored her.

Yifei is really something, why does she say everything? There are men here, how can you ask her such private questions?

"Judging from the shape, it has fox ears and a tail. The tail originates from the coccyx, so the nerves in the tail area are connected to..."

Dali looked at Yumo's ears and tail, and then said her deduction, but before she could finish speaking, Yumo covered her mouth.

She now regrets offending this little girl because of Yifei; she has already suffered twice at the hands of this little girl.

Even if you knew, there was no need to say it, especially in front of everyone. Don't you have any shame?

Thinking of this, Yu Mo glanced at the only man present. Zhang Yu could only pretend he hadn't heard anything and looked at the ceiling. If he could, he really wouldn't want to stay here.

It felt like a group of girls were having a private conversation, and I couldn't walk, I couldn't talk, and even breathing felt wrong. Everything I did felt incredibly awkward.

"I never imagined you were a fox demon, Yu Mo. No wonder you're so devastating to the country."

Upon hearing Dali's words, Hu Yifei understood which part the tail was connected to, so she stopped discussing the topic.

But he continued to tease Yu Mo, only this time Yu Mo wasn't shy.

Instead, she looked at Hu Yifei with pride and said disdainfully, "I'm not a fox demon. I'm a pure-blooded Qingqiu nine-tailed fox, unlike those low-level fox demons."

When Yu Mo mentioned the nine-tailed fox, a nine-tailed fox phantom sat behind her, as if watching them.

"Before the Han Dynasty, the nine-tailed fox was considered an auspicious creature. Even in later novels, the fox spirits that absorbed human essence were only a mixed bag of praise and criticism. Moreover, legend has it that foxes all originated from Qingqiu."

Dali told Yu Mo everything she knew. She looked at Yu Mo with curiosity, wondering what made this nine-tailed fox different from other fox demons, given Yu Mo's proud demeanor.

Seeing the puzzled looks on Hu Yifei and Dali's faces, Yu Mo knew that they didn't know the difference between a nine-tailed fox and a fox demon.

She could only patiently explain to them that she didn't know at first, but only found out after arriving in Qingqiu and hearing from the elders there.

Despite the many legends of the nine-tailed fox, such as those in Korea and Japan, and even the claim that the Japanese nine-tailed fox originated from China, those nine-tailed foxes are not recognized by Qingqiu.

It's not that any creature with nine tails is a nine-tailed fox; the true nine-tailed fox actually refers to the Qingqiu fox.

Nine tails represent nine kinds of blessings. Those who encounter the nine-tailed fox will be blessed by it, and only the fox spirits of Qingqiu can transform the nine blessings into tails.

Therefore, only the nine-tailed foxes of Qingqiu can be called the nine-tailed celestial foxes, while others can only be called nine-tailed demon foxes.

It's like a status; without the power, anyone who dares to call that name will suffer a backlash.

Just like choosing a name, there are taboos. For example, names like Lao Tzu and the Jade Emperor are not to be chosen because it is considered unlucky.

So those fox demons all call themselves nine-tailed fox demons, but who knows how many of them actually have nine tails?

Furthermore, the fox spirits of Qingqiu only cultivate their inner strength and do not rely on external objects; they all cultivate themselves in Qingqiu to improve their bloodline.

As for those fox demons absorbing essence outside, they are all low-level fox demons. Essence can pollute their bloodline. The fox fairies of Qingqiu are too busy running away to absorb it. Are they crazy?

Of course, Qingqiu is not without its own spirits, but it depends on who the other party is. For example, Yu the Great's wife was a fox spirit from Qingqiu.

But who was Yu the Great? He was conceived from the corpse of his father after his death, and his divine mandate to control the floods was a great merit, which is why he was able to attract the fox spirit of Qingqiu.

As for the other fox spirits, none of them are truly pure Qingqiu foxes, especially the famous Daji, who is a fox demon from Xuanyuan Tomb.

Therefore, people nowadays often think of the nine-tailed fox when they hear about cholera causing chaos in the court. This is a misunderstanding. So please do not call the Qingqiu fox a fox demon.

"But Yu Mo, aren't you human? How can you be a pure nine-tailed fox?"

Yifei listened to Yumo's explanation. She couldn't say she didn't understand at all, but she only understood half of it. She could only pretend to understand, and then immediately changed the subject so that others wouldn't notice.

"I heard from the elders that I am a descendant of the fox spirit who married Yu the Great. I don't know, but if the elders say I am, then I am. Surely all the elders can't be wrong."

Yu Mo said in a silly and innocent way. She was like that sometimes, always forgetting things. Hu Yifei was used to it and didn't pay much attention to her.

However, seeing that her good friend has good strength and potential, I'm happy for her, because during this time she has roughly learned about her own strength and potential from Dali and Zhang Yu.

After listening to Yu Mo's words, Zhang Yu found some problems. Although he was reluctant to admit it, he felt as if he had discovered a big secret.

So he cautiously looked at Yu Mo and asked the question that was on his mind: "Sister Yu Mo, what kind of realm do you mean by elders? Are there many?" Dali, who was standing next to her, also took out his notebook and looked at Yu Mo as he was about to write it down. She needed this data.

After hearing Zhang Yu's words, Yu Mo thought for a moment in a daze before replying, "It seems the elders want some kind of Golden Immortal. I heard the most powerful are the Great Luo Golden Immortals, and there are nine of them. As for the others, they're all Golden Immortals, and there's also the clan leader and such, but they didn't tell me what realm they are."

Yu Mo casually uttered a shocking statement: nine Great Luo Golden Immortals. Even when the Jie Sect had ten thousand immortals paying homage, they didn't have nine.

Not to mention other forces, even the Western Sect, which has converted so many people, doesn't have five Great Luo Golden Immortals.

Having nine Great Luo Golden Immortals must have been a major power for the Lich King before. It seems that only these hidden clans have such a foundation.

I originally thought Hu Yifei was already quite capable, but I didn't expect that although Yu Mo's potential is not as good as Hu Yifei's, she has many powerful backers.

Moreover, few people would be willing to deal with auspicious omens like these that are peaceful and uncontested, mainly because it would be a losing proposition.

Well, at this point, Zhang Yu was starting to doubt himself. Was he just a tool to get them onto the path of cultivation? Look at these girls, they're either innate demon gods or have huge forces behind them.

Moreover, who knows what kind of perverts those bastards might have later on? Even if you told him now that they were all reincarnations of innate demon gods, Zhang Yu wouldn't find it strange.
