Master of Ten Thousand Foxes

...

Gymnasium, inside the restroom.

Song Xiangshuai and Yang Zhan, each with their hands in their pockets, stared fiercely at each other, the atmosphere tense like a drawn sword!

Yang Zhan sneered.

"Piece of shit, do you admit defeat today or not?"

Song Xiangshuai also sneered.

"Cheating bastard, I don’t admit defeat to you!"

Song Xiangshuai and Yang Zhan had long had friction. He knew Yang Zhan had a pretty mom, and he was deliberately provoking Yang Zhan at this moment!

This restroom was a place he had pre-selected, with his underling already set up outside the window, hiding in the corner, secretly recording with a phone.

As long as Yang Zhan dared to hit him, he would capture it on camera.

If an Immortal Technique Committee member beat an ordinary person, it would be extremely serious and he would definitely end up in jail! His university record could even be at risk!

At that time, Yang Zhan’s pretty mom might even come to beg him for mercy... and maybe later he could impress Yang Zhan’s mom with his own "skills"...

"Hehehe."

Song Xiangshuai chuckled lewdly. Seeing Yang Zhan unmoved, he continued to provoke.

"So, what now, son, aren’t you good at Immortal Techniques?

"Do you want to hit me or not?"

Yang Zhan was about to say something when there was a "whoosh" sound!

It turned out that a fiery red fox came rushing in from the outside and crouched on top of Song Xiangshuai’s head.

It was Big Nose!

Yang Zhan and Song Xiangshuai went silent... coincidentally, they both knew that if an Immortal Beast went out of control and attacked, it’s currently a legal grey area, which almost meant no consequences.

Yang Zhan grinned.

Song Xiangshuai frowned, on the verge of tears.

But Big Nose wasn’t there to attack. It stepped on top of Song Xiangshuai’s head, trampling his hair, its eyes wide, and its fox face full of excitement!

It’s this person!

This person has the scent of Harlan Zhongli!

It sniffed it out!

Is Harlan Zhongli planted in his body?

But in its ears, it heard its master’s voice.

"There’s no Harlan Zhongli in his body.

"I’ve scanned it with my Divine Sense.

"He has nothing to do with Harlan Zhongli."

Huh?

Big Nose was stunned for a moment.

Could it have made a mistake?

It sniffed left, explored right, and still thought it hadn’t made a mistake!

Harlan Zhongli is on this person!

But the master said there’s none...

"Aww..."

It decided to stop agonizing, "whoosh", turning into a red stream of light, leaping away from Song Xiangshuai’s head with such force that it even staggered Song Xiangshuai.

Thud, thud, thud...

Song Xiangshuai stumbled several steps, barely standing firm, relieved that the Immortal Beast hadn’t attacked, but being stepped on the head by the Immortal Beast left him furious to the point of laughter!

"Hahaha! Good! You guys from the Immortal Grass Experimental Class are all big shots!

"You all can perform Immortal Techniques, you’re all amazing!

"You wanna beat me, huh? Want to bully me?

"Come on, Yang Zhan, hit me!"

He tossed his head provocatively, glancing furtively out the window... huh?

Why couldn’t he see the underling filming?

He turned his head to look more intently.

Really not there?!

Where’s the underling filming?!

Yang Zhan just sneered, finally speaking.

"Three days ago, I gave your underling ten thousand bucks, so since three days ago, he became my underling.

"But relax, even without filming, I won’t hit you, I don’t hold that much of a grudge against you.

"I just find you disgusting.

"Today, I’m just helping someone else out.

"Brother Lü, you can come out now."

Bam!

The stall door in the restroom opened, and out came a chubby young man full of rage, holding a steel pipe.

Clang, clang, clang!

More restroom stalls opened, from which came the chubby young man’s brothers, each holding a steel pipe.

What?

Song Xiangshuai instinctively stepped back two steps, suddenly panicking!

"Damn it, Yang Zhan, you fucking hired thugs to beat me?

"I’m telling you, that’s also illegal!"

Yang Zhan shook his head.

"Hahaha, I didn’t hire thugs to beat you, this Brother Lü is in the same business as you!

"This has nothing to do with me, right? I just provided some information to Brother Lü, what law did I break?

"Hahahahaha!"

Yang Zhan laughed heartily, turned around, and left the bathroom. He heard a commotion behind him. It turned out Song Xiangshuai, who was trying to escape, was caught by a group of brothers led by a slightly chubby youth and pinned to the ground.

He heard Song Xiangshuai roar in anger.

"Yang Zhan, you mother..."

Bang!

Song Xiangshuai’s voice was cut off by a steel pipe.

"Ah! Dammit!"

Bang! Bang! Smack! Smack!

"You son of a bitch, whose wife do you dare touch?"

"Brothers, go ahead, Young Master Yang got us a lawyer!"

"Beat him as if to kill him!"

"Luckily, Young Master Yang is loyal, otherwise I’d really suffer this silent loss, wearing this green helmet!"

...

Outside the bathroom door, in the corridor, a bunch of classmates from the Immortal Grass Experimental Class had gathered, waiting for Yang Zhan to come out.

"Are you okay?"

"What’s that noise in there?"

"Did you get someone to beat him up?"

"Isn’t that illegal?"

Yang Zhan patted his chest.

"Heh, I don’t do illegal things..."

In the crowd, Bai Mo carried Big Nose, who looked perplexed, glanced at Yang Zhan, then looked into the bathroom.

One could only say... Yang Zhan, this guy is indeed a man of character.

He grinned, raised his foot, and prepared to leave.

This Harlan Zhongli must have been hidden by Jasper Pool using a secret technique; we need to keep looking patiently.

But...

This...

The smell of blood in the air, the smell emanating from the bathroom, from Song Xiangshuai being beaten... Why does this bloody smell contain a hint of Harlan Zhongli?

What’s going on?

Bai Mo stopped in his tracks again.

Divine Sense surged out from between his eyebrows, like antennae, probing into the bathroom!

He saw the slightly chubby youth and his brothers were beating Song Xiangshuai ruthlessly.

And Song Xiangshuai, with his wealth of experience in getting beaten, curled his body into a ball, holding his head with one hand and covering his special area with the other.

"You son of a bitch!"

"Serves you right for being so bold!"

Fists, kicks, and steel pipes fell on Song Xiangshuai’s body repeatedly.

Blood flowed from his nose and the corners of his mouth.

Yet Bai Mo’s Divine Sense astonishingly discovered that within Song Xiangshuai’s body, in his bones and blood, the medicinal power of Harlan Zhongli suddenly sprouted from nowhere, protecting his heart, lungs, internal organs, skull, and special areas—shielding him from fatal injuries! Moreover, it was enhancing his body’s vitality, allowing him to heal faster!

"He’s really connected to Super Harlan Zhongli? Where does this medicinal power come from?"

Bai Mo’s Divine Sense transformed into countless antennae, penetrating Song Xiangshuai’s body, tracking the source of the sudden medicinal power!

But... he couldn’t trace it!

This medicinal power appeared out of thin air, without any source or traceable evidence.

Bai Mo was just about to devise another plan when he saw the slightly chubby youth had finished the beating, left Song Xiangshuai curled and trembling, crying, and angrily walked out, laughingly thanking Yang Zhan.

Bai Mo felt a bit frustrated.

"They stopped, and so did the Harlan Zhongli’s medicinal power.

"Couldn’t they beat him a little longer?"

At this point, he vaguely understood.

"Is it Jasper Pool Holy Land’s secret technique, hiding the Ten-thousand-year-old Harlan Zhongli inside Song Xiangshuai?

"How does this happen exactly? What’s the hiding technique? Why exactly Song Xiangshuai?

"Is the Jasper Pool Secret Technique the only way to extract the Harlan Zhongli?"

As he pondered, he sensed transparent, tiny Gu insects silently flying into the bathroom, landing in the blood at the corner of Song Xiangshuai’s mouth!

Gu insects?

Bai Mo recalled that the Poison Master Wang E’s intelligence mentioned Gu Masters.

"Well, this saves me some trouble."

...

In the city village, a small motel.

Black Stone Bone lay on the bed, suddenly a returning Gu insect flew onto his eyeball.

The Gu insect burrowed under his eyeball, directly transmitting the information to his mind.

"Hmm?

"One person?

"Is it Jasper Pool’s Secret Technique?"

Before he came, he’d heard from the Ancient Immortal that Jasper Pool would use a secret technique to hide that Harlan Zhongli.

At this moment, he grinned loudly.

"Hehehe, hahaha!"

He laughed, not because he found Harlan Zhongli, but because...

"What a boast of the West State’s mastermind. Isn’t this Harlan Zhongli still found by me first?

"Could he find it?"

What he didn’t realize was that as the Gu insect drilled into his eye, white mycelium had silently spread from the base of his eye across his eyeball, like blood vessels appearing from staying up too long.
