King of Creation Chapter 1979 - 1964: The Sky’s the Limit for the Tiger’s Flight

"Qingtong, take a look at this!"

After sending off Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao, Ye Zhen followed him for a while. Once he confirmed there were no issues, he left a Little Demon to keep watch and returned to the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space.

Inside the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space, Hu Qingtong’s face was already frosty after watching the Shadow Capture Jade Slip of Ye Zhen interrogating Tu Jinggao.

Deep down, Hu Qingtong was someone incredibly grateful. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have repaid Ye Zhen years ago, which led to their later romance.

Similarly, Hu Qingtong was very grateful to the Great Clan Leader of the Fox Clan, Tu Zheng, who had provided a stable and safe environment for her and Chi Ling’er over the years.

If possible, she still wanted to repay Tu Zheng, whether it was for him, Chi Ling’er, or the Fox Clan.

So, deep in her heart, Hu Qingtong hoped the Great Clan Leader Tu Zheng wouldn’t deceive her — she wanted to repay him.

But this Shadow Capture Jade Slip shattered her hopes completely.

The Great Clan Leader Tu Zheng hadn’t left Tu Mountain but stayed within the sacred Qingqiu Tomb of the Fox Clan in Tu Mountain. He was fully aware of everything that had happened recently, commanding operations remotely.

It was entirely different from what Tu Zheng had said about leaving Qingqiu to locate the fragments of the Qingqiu Tomb; he was actually waiting for an opportunity.

"How do you feel after watching it?" Ye Zhen appeared silently by Hu Qingtong’s side, gently embracing her trembling waist.

"The Clan Leader deceived us in this matter, but as for Chi Ling’er’s situation..."

"Chi Ling’er’s situation is something we don’t need to worry about for now. If that day really arrives, the first to be unable to sit still will definitely be the experts of the Fox Clan.

If such a day really comes, Fox Clan’s Dao Realms will fight tooth and nail to find you."

"We don’t know what Great Clan Leader Tu Zheng’s real plan is. The best thing we can do now is to increase our strength.

In the future, if we can raise our strength to a level where we can negotiate on equal terms with the Fox Clan’s Dao Realms, we can strive for all possible opportunities for Chi Ling’er," Ye Zhen said gently, comforting her.

"What if... that day comes sooner than we think?" Hu Qingtong asked with a worried look.

"If that day comes sooner than we think, then when that time comes, I will do whatever it takes to win a chance of survival for you and your daughter, even if it costs me my life..."

Her lips felt warm as Hu Qingtong had already turned around and kissed Ye Zhen, stopping him from saying more.

After a long while, their lips parted.

Leaning lightly on Ye Zhen’s chest, Hu Qingtong said in a low voice, "If that day truly comes, I’ll be with you..."

This time, Ye Zhen kissed Hu Qingtong on his own, and everything else was left unsaid.

"Mr. Ye, my mind is a mess. Whatever we do now, I’ll listen to you; you decide," Hu Qingtong said softly.

"Alright!" Ye Zhen nodded gently.

The Dao Realm expert Tu Fu, who was protecting Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao, returned a little later than Ye Zhen had anticipated, taking just over 15 minutes.

His concubine had been poisoned but was cured by him. However, he was unclear about how she got poisoned and didn’t care to investigate.

In the back mansion, due to competition and envy, there were always troublesome things happening that he didn’t want to see, so he didn’t want to investigate too much.

He just warned the concubine to be more careful in the future and sternly reprimanded the Grand Steward, believing that settled the matter, giving it no further thought.

However, upon returning and not seeing Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao, Tu Fu became anxious.

He learned that as soon as he left, Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao went to the concubine’s courtyard.

"Haha, young people really are..."

With a light laugh, Tu Fu didn’t think much more and just waited outside the courtyard for Tu Jinggao to finish.

But if Tu Fu knew that Tu Jinggao was hiding in the concubine’s room, doing nothing, only trying to look more normal and not mentally unstable, he might not have been so at ease.

Seeing how clever Tu Jinggao was in continuing to erase the traces of the interrogation, Ye Zhen felt relieved and quickly returned from underground.

"Princess Chimei, because of certain reasons, we need to quietly leave using some methods. Do you want to leave with us, or stay here and leave on your own?" Upon returning to Hu Qingtong’s small courtyard, Ye Zhen first asked Hur Chimei for her opinion.

"I... will leave with you," Hur Chimei quickly decided. "Can I be with Hur Xiaomao?" she asked again.

"Of course, you can! But before leaving Qingqiu, you and Xiaomao will need to stay in Brother Zhu’s belly for a while because my secret technique can’t carry many people," Ye Zhen explained.

"With Hur Xiaomao, I can go anywhere."

Xiaomao responded with a low growl, which only made Hur Chimei’s expression more determined.

Ye Zhen didn’t quite understand why Hur Chimei was so taken with Xiaomao.

Perhaps, true love at first sight does exist in this world.

"Brother Zhu, your turn!"

With a bulging belly and a wide-open mouth, Zhu Hong swallowed Hur Chimei and the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten into his stomach.

This was currently the only way Ye Zhen could secretly leave while keeping the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space a secret.

The next moment, Ye Zhen gathered Zhu Hong, Hu Qingtong, Ling Qianbi, and others into the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space. With a wave of his sleeve, mirage energy spread out, transforming the look of Hu Qingtong’s courtyard.

Ye Zhen and Hu Qingtong were meditating, Zhu Hong was sleeping soundly while holding his belly, Ling Qianbi stood guard, and Hur Chimei and the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten snuggled together. The scenario looked incredibly real, with Zhu Hong’s big belly rising and falling like it was genuine.

This was an illusion created by the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou using Ancient Mirage Qi, able to last for at least three days and nights without dissipating.

Then, Ye Zhen, using the Innate Five Elements Divine Escape, disappeared into thin air.

Leaving was Ye Zhen’s current decision.

Staying in Tu Mountain meant not only facing the hawk-eyed Great Saint of the Giant Spirits but also dealing with the schemes of the old fox, Great Clan Leader Tu Zheng.

If conflicts broke out, who knew how many Dao Realms the Fox Clan had inside Tu Mountain. That wasn’t something Ye Zhen could handle.

Moreover, according to Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao, the Monkey Clan had sent two Great Saints to track Zhu Hong’s whereabouts, and they were stationed outside the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation on the orders of Great Clan Leader Tu Zheng.

Though this reduced some pressure on Ye Zhen’s group, Ye Zhen felt that, given Tu Zheng’s cunning, he might not have had good intentions.

Ye Zhen sensed that he seemed to be surrounded and needed to leave this place to truly gain freedom.

Half an hour later, Ye Zhen, speeding underground, crashed into the array range of the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation once again.

The sensation of colliding with a quagmire, with every movement as heavy as an immense mass, was incredibly uncomfortable.

"This brat, he shouldn’t dare lie to me!"

Muttering softly, Ye Zhen’s spiritual power suddenly surged into the Passing Jade Token received from Tu Jinggao, clutched in his palm.

In an instant, a golden glow emitted from the jade token, enveloping Ye Zhen.

As the golden glow from the jade token encased him, Ye Zhen felt immediately lighter. At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into part of the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation, moving inside it without any hindrance.

A few breaths later, Ye Zhen exited the one hundred mile array range of the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation, thereby completely leaving Tu Mountain.

Looking back at the vague silhouette of the Tushan Hills, Ye Zhen ascended into the sky, letting Hu Qingtong, Ling Qianbi, Zhu Hong, and others out of the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space. Then, Zhu Hong opened his mouth and spewed out Xiaomao and Hur Chimei simultaneously.

The next moment, everyone leaped onto Xiaomao’s broad back. Distant spatial fluctuations radiated from Xiaomao as the Void-Breaking Divine Power activated, making Xiaomao vanish instantly along with everyone.

At that moment, the sky was truly open to the tiger’s flight!

Within Tu Mountain, whether it was the Bear Clan’s Great Saint of the Giant Spirits, Great Clan Leader Tu Zheng with several Supreme Elders, or the two Great Saints of the Monkey Clan still waiting outside the Ten Thousand Foxes Returning Heart Formation, no one knew of this except for Grand Young Master Tu Jinggao!
