The Fox Goddes Love Struggle
Chapter XII - When In The Whip

Shen Lan returned to the nine-tailed fox clan area. His arrival was so secretive that he used a spiritual protector that made his body transparent. Even his aura would not be detectable by anyone.

Still inside, Shen Lan was circling around looking for people she could rely on. Hearing that Yi Changyin was about to be whipped with a rare artifact, made him panic slightly and was about to seek help. It seemed, Shen Lan's flat face was about to be wiped out.

Seeing Qin Ruyi having a conversation with Yi Wang and an important guest, made Shen Lan cluck in annoyance. At first he had hoped for Yi Huanfu. But the man came in and spoke warmly, which may never end. Ah shit!

After all if asking for Qin Ruyi's help, it would be less dramatic. If it was the other ancestors or uncles then about the contract Yi Changyin and Xuan Chen would be uncovered already. And Yi Changyin would end up in the prison cage of the nine-tailed fox clan the coldest.

He needed to find a person who was easily instigated but did not want to embarrass his clan. Smart girl bragging and making others cornered but very reliable. In this clan there was only one, namely Yi Xuemei. Maybe it should be that girl?!

Inevitably, Shen Lan had to utilize the girl for her nona. He walked down the Yi family residence to look for Yi Xuemei's whereabouts. The girl was relaxing in the park. Shen Lan stopped, then smiled full of plans. He walked back while releasing his protective spiritual aura.

"Greetings Miss Xuemei.." Shen Lan bowed as she was already in the presence of the girl.

Yi Xuemei. "Aren't you Yi Changyin's spirit flower? Why are you coming home? While he just hasn't appeared in this place." Yi Xuemei chuckled softly. "Is he dead?"

How eager for Shen Lan to pull the lips of the damned girl. But Shen Lan had to be patient, remember.he still needed the girl. Whatever happens, the current Yi Xuemei should be Yi Changyin's savior.

"Miss has already finished cultivating and reached the level three early stage Goddess." Hearing that made Yi Xuemei gulp his saliva already sucked. The girl in his neck had gone further than him. Will he lose this time?

"What..what does it have to do with me?" Said Yi Xuemei tightly, trying to act indifferent. While his heart continues to be covered in anxiety. However he knew, Shen Lan was not a man who liked to lie even though he was often accused of lying to him.

Yi Changyin probably would not have escaped Feng Chao, but still Yi Xuemei would have been his bluffing material. Moreover, Yi Changyin would definitely gain the support of the ancestors and uncles. What a nightmare. Going for a hundred years has gone up so much. What if he returns for a thousand or thousands of years? Perhaps round-trip had already appeared as the supreme Goddess.

Shen Lan smiled faintly, she was happy to see Yi Xuemei being depressed like that. The more lured, the easier it would be to use it to save Yi Changyin. As a spirit flower, she could not face the demon whip. But if Yi Xuemei rose to become a Goddess and saved Yi Changyin, it was very useful.

"Of course there are, even Miss Changyin left something for you." Shen Lan replied seriously.

Yi Xuemei's heart was pounding, his temples were slightly sweaty. His face was pale, though still trying to date. 'Don't he. gave me a terrible surprise.'

Shen Lan showed her palm, then came out a wooden box and a piece of paper. Yi Xuemei who was trying indifferently still had time to glance at what Shen Lan had brought out. Until the man thrust out his trunk, Yi Xuemei again acted indifferently.

"Miss Xuemei, this is from Miss Changyin." Said Shen Lan kindly.

"Why should I? Why not Lady Qin? Did you send it wrong?" Yi Xuemei asked indifferently. "If that's true for me. What's in it?"

"Miss will know after opening the box." Shen Lan replied.

Yi Xuemei told Xiaolan, his personal servant to take the box. When the box was in front of him, he hesitated to open it. It's like it's bad to think that what's in it is a prank. It made Shen Lan even more anxious for too long. He wanted to punch the girl in front of him.

As Shen Lan muttered indistinctly, Yi Xuemei glanced at him sharply. Instantly Shen Lan was acting indifferent with her flat face. Yi Xuemei's hand hit the table, to retrieve the letter first.

'Grab the paper with emotion.'' Shen Lan thought as she looked at Yi Xuemei flatly. But somehow the current Shen Lan was really upset and impatient.

Yi Xuemei started to unfold the letter and started to read it. 'Sister Xuemei, I hope you receive the spiritual sparks I keep in the box.' Yi Xuemei stared at the box with sparkling eyes. Then open it impatiently.

Shen Lan only smiled obliquely looking at him. Yi Xuemei had truly been lured into his plan. Fireflowers, who wouldn't want to have them? A rare flower that was only in the spiritual fire cave, the plant grew amidst the embers of the fire. No wonder it was a fiery red color with fire auras surrounding it. Anyone who used it to raise the cultivation level, then it would be very useful!

'Why did he give this to me?' Thought Yi Xuemei. Without a second thought, Yi Xuemei continued reading the letter. 'This flower can help you cultivate into a level one early stage Goddess. Sorry sister couldn't give more precious to brother. At least this is your sister's last gift.'

"last?" muttered Yi Xuemei who was starting to feel a bad premonition.

Shen Lan again smiled faintly at the sight of her target entering the trap. I don't know what Yi Changyin's response will be when he finds out about his ridiculous plan. It was to fake Yi Changyin's death to Yi Xuemei. Worse yet, Shen Lan was currently feeling that she was the smartest creature in the world. Fuck up!

Yi Xuemei turned to Xiaolan, it seemed like the maid was thinking the same thing as her master. Then Yi Xuemei turned to Shen Lan with an anxious expression, her heart racing. "What happened to Yi Changyin?"

"Miss forbids me to tell anyone. It's best, Miss Xuemei continue reading it."

"Oh, you're right." Perhaps by reading the continuation Yi Xuemei can get important clues. 'Brother, I actually love you very much. Even though you always bully sister, but sister never have a grudge against you. Oh yeah, brother remember? When was your cousin in the Phoenix clan who sent me poisonous food? Actually, I was eavesdropping on their conversation. He Qing is so naughty! He was actually intent on poisoning you, but I quickly traded your food for mine. At that time, I was very willing to be poisoned for the sake of brother. Never mind, maybe this is all I can say. See you later, or in the next life. Warm regards to your sister, Yi Changyin.'

After reading the letter Yi Xuemei hit the table hard, making Xiaolan and Shen Lan flinch. "Shen Lan's! Tell me what happened!" The change in expression was so great. As Yi Xuemei's hatred for her sister was lost in the swallow of worry.

Elsewhere and at the same time, emperor Xuan Zhen let out a spiritual aura in his hand. After collecting a lot, then he pointed at the wall in an empty room. The wall was filled with abstract paintings in color. If you stare at it for too long, you may feel dizzy.

The spiritual aura in the emperor's hand made a move on the wall of the painting. The middle of it splits in two zig-zag shaped ones. The wall was increasingly wide open, along with showing a dark room filled with strange aura. Also shining white spots that fly indeterminate direction.

After it opened up completely, emperor Xuan Zhen again poured spiritual energy into it. His hand shook, indicating that he was pulling something inside. It was like heavy and filled with the burden of a sinister aura.

Come out a long whip with a dragon scales motif. White-colored bones with small flashes that cover them. The tip of the whip or handle is coated with a golden dragon head. The crystal that was part of his eyes was red and shone like an actual living dragon.

That said, the whip was a dragon who served the sky to eradicate demons. Because when the whip is seventh, and proves the target is a demon, then automatically the whip will be wrapped around it violently to death. No one would be able to escape even though that figure was the strongest demon in the world.

The flogging had a powerful effect. It can even be felt up to the sky realm. The color of the clouds during the day turns golden like a view in the afternoon. Shen Lan who was aware of that in place of the fox clan was naturally wide-eyed.

Yi Xuemei was not a fool, he was able to recognize the aura reflected in that cloud cloudy wisp. "It's a stealth lash." Yi Xuemei muttered with a complicated expression.

Xiaolan approached her nonanya with a slow step. His face was covered in anxiety. "Miss don't-don't..."

"You're right!" Yi Xuemei exclaimed. "Changyin gave me sparks as a sign of the last gift, and now she is in the mortal realm. The humans there had mostly always thought the fox was an evil demon. It was possible that Yi Changyin was captured by the emperor of the eastern mainland and punished him with a lash." The worry in his heart grew, so he did not hesitate to bite the tip of his nails. "Yi Changyin is not a demon, if he is whipped up to seven times, he will die!!"

"Miss, maybe if you absorb the plant, it can increase your cultivation to become a Goddess. I heard, only the cultivation level of the Goddess can fight it. But, miss Changyin couldn't possibly get away with it because she must have been handcuffed by a stealth binder." Xiaolan was obviously at length.

Yi Xuemei's eyes squinted, she thought back to what Xiaolan had said. But what he said was the truth. Yi Changyin there couldn't possibly fight those cunning people. So there is a possibility that the girl was caught in an unconscious state. That was what Yi Xuemei thought.

Finally Yi Xuemei lit a spiritual aura on her fingertips. Once it was large enough, Yi Xuemei injected it into the sparks. Instantly the spiritual power of the sparks flowed upside down on Yi Xuemei, granting her the power to fill her dantian and make a breakthrough. He had to save his sister. Just returning the favor of having given her sparks and not wanting to humiliate her nine-tailed fox clan. Just imagine if Yi Changyin died at the hands of a human, it was a huge humiliation.

Aoyi Jinqi gouged towards the sky, looking at the clouds during the day that turned orange like the afternoon. At first he felt astonished, but after a thought he seemed to know something.

"Demon lash?" Mumbled. "It looks like this is a good opportunity." Aoyi Jinqi pulled the corner of her lips, then stepped away from where she stood.

Aoyi Jinqi entered the main hall of the empire without anyone knowing. She changed her clothes like most palace ladies uniforms. After that, he joined the crowd of ladies who were whispering.

The first sight she saw was a beautiful girl in handcuffs in the middle of the field. Aoyi Jinqi was able to recognize the chains that were handcuffing the girl. No doubt it's a stealth binder. Even the stronger ones could not escape from his bond.

When he saw the girl, he knew the girl was a person of the sky realm who was slandered. Her aura indicated that she had only reached the level three early stage Goddess. His stealth eyes can see nine tails on his buttocks.

'The slandered nine-tailed fox goddess?' The woman smiled slanted. 'May these foolish humans regard him as a demon.'

The look on Yi Changyin's face at that moment seemed relaxed, his position was cross-legged lotus and the hand supporting his chin. In a few moments he will be whipped by a rare weapon, he could still be calm!

While Xuan Chen was being held back by his two younger siblings. The man was many times about to run away and save his beloved fox. Actually he was in the middle of the field was useless.

Yi Changyin glanced at Xuan Chen who was being held back by his two younger siblings. The man was like a heated worm on his wheelchair, moving continuously to overwhelm his two younger siblings as they tried to maintain their seal.

Yi Changyin gave a smile to Xuan Chen, the instant the man instantly froze. 'Your Majesty, don't worry.. Shen Lan will come to give her a helping hand.' Actually while in the main hall of the empire, Yi Changyin realized Shen Lan was yelling inside there. He also felt the departure of Shen Lan who had gone somewhere. But Yi Changyin was sure he was looking for something to save him.

'I hope you're okay..' Xuan Chen replied through his heart.

'You take it easy..'

Right after saying that, emperor Xuan Zhen came with a few of his trusted servants. The grand empress and concubine also came following to witness the torture as well as humiliate. But Yi Changyin looked relaxed in the midst of making Jiang Jinwei and Han Qiangshu snort in annoyance.

Yi Changyin stared at the stealth lash flatly. It was as if the weapon would not be affected to his body. He knew his strength was so strong, but after sensing the fourteen lashes of lightning, Yi Changyin seemed to have been immune to it. Relaxed, he straightened his body. Why is he afraid? There was no blood on his body.

"Emperor, let me whip him." Said the queen confidently.

Without a second thought, emperor Xuan Zhen immediately gave the demon lash to his wife. Jiang Jinwei received the stealth lash with a grin on his lips. He started flying behind Yi Changyin's back.

Jiang Jinwei floated his body, directing the white whip with that yellow glint backwards. All the energy in him out, so that he can hit with more force. Jiang Jinwei started to harden his jaw, then tossed the lash over Yi Changyin's back.

"Yin'er!!!" It was Xuan Chen's shout.

The girl was only pushed a little forward and a mouthful of blood she spewed out, it seemed like the one who was whipped by an ordinary lash. Everyone was wide-eyed at it, how could someone who was hit by a whip be like that?! Usually they will bounce as far as possible and directly collapse to the ground. But Yi Changyin this time was only pushed a little and spewed out a mouthful of blood.

Yi Changyin also felt surprised by what happened. At first he thought his body would bounce far away and fall back. But reality is not what he imagined. Actually she felt pain, but this body did not respond much. What is really protecting him?

Jiang Jinwei grew even more furious when he did not see any reaction from Yi Changyin. The girl seemed to have bones and skin that was as strong as steel. Or the girl's bones are like they're fused on the ground. He was really dissatisfied with the results, he finally returned to his lash, preparing to hit the little girl's body.

Before being whipped, suddenly the crystal from Aoyi Jinqi moved irregularly like it was about to explode. It was unexpected that the crystal shot away towards Yi Changyin. Of course Aoyi Jinqi was wide-eyed at what had happened. "No way.." Mumbled.

Just like before, the crystal went inside Yi Changyin's left chest. His consciousness became crumbling, his gaze became moved elsewhere. So that when the lash landed, Yi Changyin did not even waver from his seat in the slightest. It made everyone even more agape about what this one fox was actually made of?!
