Chapter 426: Lady Hu (2)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When an Emperor was enraged, a wisp of Emperor’s might was enough to crush the Fox Race.
So, upon hearing that Li Qingshan had arrived, Lady Hu became anxious immediately.
Even though Fox Lady vouched for him, saying they knew each other and that Li Qingshan was a good person, Lady Hu didn’t dare to be careless or presumptuous.
“No need for formalities. I’m here today to seek help,” Li Qingshan said calmly, motioning for Fox Lady to assist Lady Hu.
Only then did Lady Hu relax slightly, seeing that the young Emperor who had sealed the Monster Realm for a hundred years had a reasonable attitude.
She first sized up Li Qingshan. He was indeed young and talented. No one in the entire Immortal Plane could compare to him.
But the next moment, her gaze was drawn to the little fox, as if she had discovered a peerless treasure. Her turbid eyes suddenly burst with brilliant light. The Nine-Tailed Fox she had been searching for was right in front of her. Lady Hu’s body trembled slightly, feeling incredulous.
“This… How could our Fox Race not know about the birth of this Nine-Tailed Fox?” Lady Hu said with a trembling voice.
Fox Lady immediately explained to Lady Hu what Li Qingshan had just said.
“Born in the Human World, a union of humans and monsters, a Nine-Tailed Fox unable to transform…” Lady Hu became increasingly astonished as she listened. Towards the end, she couldn’t even care about Li Qingshan standing aside. She approached the little fox and kept touching her, sometimes probing the little fox’s primordial spirit and sea of consciousness.
Although the little fox was reluctant, she endured it and muttered in her heart, “Everything is for the sake of transformation, everything is for the sake of transformation…”
Thus, although her body was tense, she forced herself to stay still and let Lady Hu caress her.
Lady Hu caressed the little fox, and her face revealed a joyful expression. She said excitedly, “This is the root bone of the Nine-Tailed Fox, and it’s the kind that atavism. It’s not the continuation of the bloodline, but the atavism of the bloodline. It can’t happen once in a million years, but it actually happened just like that. It’s unbelievable.”
At this moment, Lady Hu looked at the little fox with a burning gaze, making the little fox feel uneasy. This gaze seemed to be melting her.
“Little girl, have you awaken your inherited memories?” Lady Hu asked.
The little fox nodded involuntarily. She was a little afraid of this Lady Hu.
She thought, “She doesn’t eat foxes, right?”
“You’re a peerless genius. With your atavism bloodline and awakened inheritance memories, your inheritance memories are even more terrifying than those of other Nine-Tailed Foxes,” Lady Hu exclaimed excitedly.
“Why is her inheritance memories more terrifying than other Nine-Tailed Fox?” Li Qingshan asked in confusion. They were both Nine-Tailed Foxes, but was there such a huge difference in their atavism?
The little fox and the Fox Lady also looked on curiously, not understanding.
Lady Hu smiled like a blooming peach blossom. She explained happily, “The continuation of bloodlines is not unchanging. Since ancient times, countless bloodlines have disappeared into the river of history. Everyone knows this. But I wonder if Immortal Emperor Li has thought about why they disappeared?”
Li Qingshan pondered for a moment and said, “Is it because each generation’s bloodline inheritance is diluted?”
Lady Hu nodded and said, “That’s right. Dilution. Each generation’s inheritance inevitably includes some foreign bloodlines. It’s impossible for all to be from the same bloodline. This dilutes the original concentration. So for us major clans, it’s crucial to strictly control the inheritance of each generation’s bloodline.”
“For example, in my Fox Race, the mating and reproduction of Nine-Tailed Foxes in the past were not just about individuals but about the entire clan. Ancestors would select the least impactful bloodlines from various sources for Nine-Tailed Fox inheritance.”
“But even so, the Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline that has been passed down for millions of years has been heavily diluted. It’s been thousands of years since a Nine-Tailed Fox was born. This is why the Atavism Bloodline is so precious.”
“Because she suddenly raises the diluted bloodline to its former glory, starting all over again. This is the greatest meaning of the atavism bloodline,” Lady Hu said excitedly. The more she looked at the little fox, the more she liked it. She wanted to touch it. Unfortunately, the little fox hid behind Li Qingshan and hugged Li Qingshan’s calf, looking at her vigilantly.
“Wouldn’t the inheritance memories of other Nine-Tailed Foxes also be diminished?” Li Qingshan asked.
“Of course, although they are all Nine-Tailed Foxes, hers has the atavistic bloodline and has tremendous potential. The inherited memories she obtained are genuine, ranging from the first generation of Nine-Tailed Foxes to the previous generation.”
“But if a Nine-Tailed Fox were born in our Fox Race now and awakened her inheritance memories, her bloodline concentration and inheritance memories wouldn’t match up to this girl’s.”
“Because the bloodline of our Nine-Tailed Foxes here has already been severely diluted. Although we want to preserve it, the dilution of bloodlines doesn’t obey your command. With the dilution of bloodlines, the inheritance memories will also weaken. Ancient parts will become blurred.”
“Little girl, let me ask you, are your inheritance memories very clear, from the first generation of Nine-Tailed Foxes to the last?” Lady Hu asked the little fox kindly.
The little fox nodded. Her inherited memories were indeed very clear.
Li Qingshan remembered. The little fox had shown him the great tree of inheritance memories, which was very clear. Even the Great Path of Fate and the Gate of Fate were in these inheritance memories.
