Chapter 139 Asking for Moon Dance
In the end, it was only by having other fox clansmen tie the belt, a feat of such complexity that was comparable to a calculus problem, that they were able to do it properly.
When Yun Fuzhao arrived, the other disciples had already arrived.
They were all dressed to look respectable, like wild boars excitedly jumping around in a melon patch.
"Why is this bonfire party in Qingqiu so different from what I expected? The decorations, the food, and the abundance are almost on par with my trip to the Demon Realm."
"It's still different. The foods in Qingqiu are all born from spiritual energy, and eating them can increase your cultivation level."
"Putting everything else aside, the robes we're wearing are all made of silk. My goodness, I've never worn such expensive robes in my entire life."
"I hereby declare that Qingqiu has replaced the Demon Realm in my heart. In order to be able to come again next time, I will cultivate diligently."
"plus one."
Yun Fuzhao found Song Ying and plopped down next to her. "Where's Master?"
Song Ying: "He's still sleeping soundly in the house. He said he doesn't like such lively activities."
Yun Fuzhao ruthlessly exposed, "He simply doesn't want to stay at the hotel."
She thought she was lazy enough, but she never expected there were experts like her. If it weren't for her master, he would be unmatched in laziness.
“Speaking of which,” Song Ying looked curiously at Yun Fuzhao’s robes, “yours seem a bit different from ours.”
Theirs are all in shades of cyan, except for Yun Fuzhao, which is in shades of red and white and has a much more complex design.
Yun Fuzhao nodded and glanced at the disciples around him; they were indeed different.
"Perhaps this is the treatment I get as the sect leader," Yun Fuzhao said smugly, crossing his legs. "Pretty prestigious."
Song Ying nodded in agreement, "The Fox Lord is also in this color scheme; you two are both leaders."
Yun Fuzhao patted her shoulder, "Don't be envious. In a few years, I will hand over the position of sect leader to you. Then I can retire in peace."
Song Ying shook her head, "I can't do it. The sect will be destroyed in my hands."
Yun Fuzhao laughed heartily, "Many people said that the Boundless Sword Sect would be destroyed in my hands, but a few years have passed and it's still doing just fine."
As the two were talking, the bonfire party began.
All the fox clan members and cultivators sat in a huge circle around the campfire, the fiery red flames illuminating their smiling faces.
Several tall foxes entered the circle, holding torches in their hands, and began to dance a cool yet ancient dance.
When Yun Fuzhao came out, she took out a handful of melon seeds. How could she just watch the performance? She leisurely and contentedly ate the melon seeds.
"Give me."
Qi Huai reached out his hand to her.
Yun Fuzhao grabbed half a handful from his own and put it in Qi Huai's hand, while Qi Huai's hand was still stretched out.
"..."
She immediately withdrew her hand, her expression wary of a thief, and said, "Go get it yourself if you want to eat."
Qi Huai closed his fingers, then opened them again, revealing that the sunflower seeds were already shelled. "I'm shelling them for you."
Yun Fuzhao stretched out his index finger and shook it, "You don't know this, eating melon seeds is more fun when you're cracking them open as you eat them."
"Been taught a lesson."
“Your program is quite interesting,” Yun Fuzhao said. “I’m going to do something like this at the sect’s celebration in a few days.”
"When?"
"Seven days later." Yun Fuzhao had almost forgotten about him. "I'll take a few members of the Qingqiu Fox Clan with me. They've been so disparaging of our sect, I have to show them how powerful our sect is."
Qi Huai had a feeling that a lot of people would attend this celebration, regardless of race. "Okay. I'll definitely make sure you're there."
Yun Fuzhao nodded.
Halfway through the performance, Qi Huai suddenly stood up.
Yun Fuzhao looked up. "Where are you going?"
Qi Huai pulled out a round drum from somewhere, his golden pupils staring at her, and slowly backed into the circle.
Several beautiful foxes emerged from behind him, rhythmically beating round drums and chanting ancient songs.
The silver ornaments they wore jingled and swayed as they danced.
The other fox clan members cheered when Qi Huai entered the arena.
Qi Huai is objectively beautiful; he has the kind of face that would be stunning whether he were a man or a woman.
Long, slender hands patted the round drum, the orange-red firelight outlining the smooth lines of his profile.
A faint smile flickered in his golden eyes as Qi Huai stared intently at her, chanting a song that Yun Fuzhao couldn't understand.
Yun Fuzhao heard Song Ying ask the fox clan members beside him, "Why are you all so excited?"
The fox, blushing, replied, "You don't know this, but in our Qingqiu, this dance is called the Moon-Seeking Dance. To the male, the female is like the moon in the sky. They dance this dance to ask the moon to take pity on them and descend to their side."
Song Ying clicked her tongue in admiration, "How romantic!"
Another fox chimed in, "This kind of dance is only performed when the male is with his sweetheart, to express his sincere feelings to everyone."
Song Ying: "What's the difference between this and confessing your feelings in public?"
"Our Fox Lord went up too. Tell me, where is their sweetheart?"
"Is there any need to guess? The Fox Lord was even willing to break the Qingqiu rule against intermarriage for her sake."
Song Ying asked curiously, "Who is it?"
Just as the fox was about to speak, the other foxes erupted in cheers again.
Song Ying turned around and saw the fox spirit, who looked like a painting, reaching out to their sect leader.
Her pupils dilated; she seemed to have discovered something extraordinary.
Qi Huai reached out to Xiang Li, a smile in his eyes, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "I would be very embarrassed if you refused me."
Yun Fuzhao glanced around and saw pairs of eyes staring intently at her.
"Okay, I'll pay more."
Qi Huai was both amused and exasperated. "Yeah, I'll give you whatever you want."
Without saying a word, Yun Fuzhao put his hand on hers.
The crowd erupted in sharp cheers.
At this moment, the bonfire party reached its climax, and all the fox clan members and cultivators sitting around stood up and danced a ridiculous dance.
Yun Fuzhao was uncoordinated and quickly gave up on this technical job.
She had previously wanted to be a dance streamer, but after just one try, viewers commented: "It looks like she needs to hire someone to perform a ritual."
"You said anything you wanted," Yun Fuzhao said in a low voice, "Can I have a Breakthrough Pill too?"
"..."
Qi Huai was both amused and exasperated. "Could you be any more ambitious?"
"Oh, those two?"
Qi Huai looked down at her for a long time, then finally sighed, flicked her forehead with his finger without any politeness, and said irritably, "No, just one."
"No problem, no problem."
"..."
……
The next day, Yun Fuzhao and his party prepared to leave Qingqiu.
The Wan'er Rabbit Clan sent over several young-looking rabbits who timidly hid behind Bai Xinxin, their bright red eyes fixed on Yun Fuzhao.
"Sect Master Yun, these are the younger generation of my clan whose cultivation is still decent. I will entrust them to you."
"Don't worry," Yun Fuzhao patted his chest, "the next time you see them, they'll be completely transformed."
"Wow, it's so lively here."
Several demons approached.
"Wan'er, you can't afford to raise your offspring, so you're giving them to the human race? You should have said earlier that you weren't capable of raising them, because I was just in need of someone to warm my bed."
