Invincible Snake Emperor

Chapter 706: Chapter 649: Each a City-Toppling Beauty

’Such strong self-control. He didn’t even sneak a few more glances at me.’ Mengqi pouted her alluring lips. With a light wave of her hand, a sweet fragrance wafted over as a cyan silk ribbon floated before Tu Xiao’an’s eyes. "Lord Snake King, please hold this little fox’s ribbon so you don’t get lost."

This Fox Mountain was shrouded in a heavy fog, making it impossible to tell north from south, east from west. If it weren’t for this, Tu Xiao’an wouldn’t have had to release his Snake King aura to attract the attention of the Fox Immortal King.

"Alright."

Tu Xiao’an didn’t hesitate. He reached out and grasped the cyan silk ribbon. The moment he did, his vision was instantly filled with countless naked beauties pouncing toward him with seductive smiles, as if he had fallen into the legendary Kingdom of Women.

Hm?

’A Charm Technique?’

Tu Xiao’an’s Consciousness Power was incredibly strong. Though he was momentarily dazed, his bewitching eyes narrowed slightly, and his mind cleared instantly.

"Giggle... Lord Snake King, what did you just see?"

Mengqi was feeling rather pleased with herself. ’So much for his strong self-control. He still fell for it. Even though it was just for an instant, it was enough to make me proud.’

"This King saw Miss Mengqi without a stitch on," Tu Xiao’an said, raising an eyebrow lightly with a slight curl of his lips.

As soon as he said this, Mengqi’s face blushed crimson, and she no longer dared to provoke him so recklessly.

Elder Snake had told Tu Xiao’an that although the Fox Race was the epitome of seduction and appeared alluringly open, the women of the Fox Race were actually very conservative and loyal.

They would only ever commit to one person in their entire lives, and once they had, not even the Celestial King himself could change their minds.

The ancients viewed foxes as lecherous spirits and monsters that used their beauty to bewitch people. Describing a woman as a "fox demon" was a rather harsh insult, basically the same as calling her fickle and promiscuous.

But this characterization of the fox demon is completely inaccurate. The image of the fox was originally very positive.

The Fox Immortal is one of the Five Great Families in folklore, but in even earlier times, the fox’s status was more revered still, ranked alongside the Dragon, Qilin, and Phoenix as one of the Four Great Auspicious Beasts.

Who would dare to look down on them with a background like that?

Furthermore, in early ancient stone carvings and brick paintings, the Nine-tailed Fox is often depicted alongside a white rabbit, a toad, and an Azure Bird next to the throne of the Queen Mother of the West, all as symbols of good fortune.

For his part, Tu Xiao’an also had a favorable impression of the fox lineage. Setting all else aside, at the very least, their transformed appearances were incredibly beautiful.

A woman adorns herself for one who delights in her, and there’s certainly nothing wrong with being beautiful.

With Mengqi, a Five-tailed Fox, leading the way, Tu Xiao’an soon saw a hazy Demon King’s Castle. It was so shrouded in mist that it felt like looking at a mirage.

It seemed as if the castle might vanish at any moment.

"Lord Snake King, we’re here."

Mengqi smiled back at him over her shoulder, her stunning face still holding a faint blush.

Along the way, she had been secretly sizing up Tu Xiao’an, apparently very interested in this heaven-defying snake.

"Thank you!"

A crafty glint suddenly appeared in Mengqi’s eyes. "We’ve arrived, yes. But as for whether Lord Snake King can actually enter, that will depend on your own abilities."

Tu Xiao’an was taken aback. "Miss Mengqi, what do you mean?"

"My sisters have all heard of the fame of the Snake Race’s newly ascended Snake King—how you survived the seventy-two fatal tribulations, drove off the Gray Demon King, slew the White Demon King, and even have the Divine Beast Azure Dragon as a mount. Every one of them wants to witness your splendor for themselves."

Tu Xiao’an frowned slightly. ’They’re trying to trip me up, to keep me from easily entering the Demon King’s Castle to see the Fox Immortal King.’

’Is this at the Fox Immortal King’s direction, or are her subordinates just making trouble?’

’If her subordinates are just genuinely interested in me, that’s fine. But if this is the Fox Immortal King’s intention, then things could get a little troublesome.’

Tu Xiao’an had come with a request. The huge commotion in the Yaoling Mountain Range could hardly have escaped the Fox Immortal King’s notice.

’Perhaps she already knows why I’m here.’

’Oh well. Since I’m already here, I’ll face whatever comes. Besides, I didn’t come with much hope anyway. I’ll just treat this as an eye-opening experience.’

"Then how do you all intend to witness this King’s splendor?" Tu Xiao’an asked, giving Mengqi a deep look.

Mengqi pulled the cyan silk ribbon back from Tu Xiao’an’s hand, slowly closing the distance between them. Then she clapped her hands and called out, "Sisters, come on out! Stop hiding and peeking."

"Giggle..."

"Giggle... Xiaoqi, how could you sell your sisters out so quickly?"

"I bet Xiaoqi just suffered a little setback and wants us to help her get even."

All at once, a series of bell-like voices rang out from the mist. Immediately after, one stunning beauty after another, as lovely as flowers and as graceful as willows, floated out from the fog. Each one was exceptionally elegant and breathtakingly beautiful.

One, two, three, four, five... including Mengqi, a total of six nation-toppling beauties stood together. Some were sultry, some were dignified, and some were playfully charming. Each had her own unique style, but all of them were dazzlingly beautiful.

Even Tu Xiao’an couldn’t help but swallow hard at the sight, feeling his blood begin to race.

’Thinking about it now,’ he mused, ’it makes sense why mortals describe them as fox demons. If these women set out to seduce a man, who could possibly resist? Unless he were a eunuch.’

But to describe them by their beauty alone would be far too one-sided. Tu Xiao’an used his Conscious Insight and discovered that among the six, a full three were at the Demon King Level. The other three, including Mengqi, were Pseudo Demon Kings.

’The Fox Race is truly something else.’

Three Fox Demons at the Demon King Level—that was truly unexpected.

In his Snake Race, there were a few at the Pseudo Demon King Level, but not a single Snake Species had reached the Demon King Level.

In this regard alone, the Snake Race was inferior to the Fox Race.

Who would have thought that the mysterious and low-key Fox Race could so casually present three Demon Kings before him.

’Is this a show of force?’

"Greetings, Fairies." Tu Xiao’an didn’t put on any airs, bowing to the six fox beauties lined up before him like a scholar. "This King pays his respects."

He was giving them ample face.

One of the dignified beauties looked surprised and quickly said, "Lord Snake King, we humble women are unworthy of such courtesy from you."

"Giggle, I never expected the King of the Snake Clan, whose might shakes the Yaoling Mountain Range, to be such a handsome, scholarly young man," another woman teased, her eyes shining as she looked at Tu Xiao’an.

"This is my second and third sister," Mengqi introduced. "Next to them are my fourth, fifth, and sixth sisters. I’m the youngest, Xiaoqi," she added, a little unhappily.

’Second, Third, and Fourth Sister are all Demon Kings.’

"Fairies, may this King enter now?" ’He hadn’t come for a matchmaking session; he didn’t need to get acquainted with every single one of them.’

"Lord Snake King, there’s something you may not know," the second sister began. "We of the Fox Race have an unwritten rule that outsiders are forbidden from entering. However, your status is exalted, and since you have come all the way to our home, we can’t just shut the door in your face. Therefore..."

Tu Xiao’an asked, "Therefore what? Is there something this King must do?"

"We sisters, with too much idle time on our hands, devised an Array. Let’s just call it the Fox Array," the third sister chimed in. "We’d like Lord Snake King to take a look at it."

"So if I can pass through your Array, I’ll be allowed inside?"

Mengqi said, "Lord Snake King, you mustn’t underestimate our sisters’ Fox Array. It’s very powerful!"

Tu Xiao’an shook his head. ’He wasn’t underestimating them in the slightest. Forget about any Array—just the three Demon Kings and three Pseudo Demon Kings were enough to give him a hell of a time.’
